If Baili Wuya is present and can sense the aura emitted by this red-bellied boy Hongyu, he may be so excited that he trembles all over.

Because even a trace of breath emitted by the red jade can greatly nourish the soul, and the purity is much higher than that of the soul jade spirit.

In fact, red jade does have a deep connection with the soul jade spirit. To be precise, it was born from the soul jade spirit.

Below the Dragon Tooth Cypress, there is a soul jade mine with extremely high purity. The outer periphery is naturally ordinary soul jade, and it also has a certain effect of warming the soul. Even ordinary soul jade is also of extremely high value because of its high purity. However, for powerful monks like Luoxing Ancestor, ordinary soul jade has basically no effect.

The soul jade spirit began to be produced in the center of the Soul Jade Mine, which was also the biggest goal of Baili Wuya's trip. Unfortunately, he did not find any clues here.

At the core of the Soul Jade Mine, the extremely precious Soul Jade Mine is bred.

This red bellyband boy, Hongyu, has the essence of the soul chalcedony in the core of the soul jade mine.

After tens of thousands of years of change, this soul chalcedony has gradually developed spiritual intelligence. As its cultivation level continues to increase, it can also begin to transform into a human form, and it often comes out to move as a boy wearing a red bellyband.

In fact, the situation of red jade is very rare and requires many conditions to be met at the same time. For example, the purity of the soul jade ore is extremely high. Only in this way can there be conditions for the birth of soul chalcedony at the core; in addition, the soul jade ore needs to be relatively secret. If it is often mined, the soul chalcedony will naturally not evolve; most importantly, the environment around the soul jade ore must be suitable for all aspects.

For example, this soul jade mine is located below the dragon-tooth cypress and can absorb the breath of life all year round. In addition, the soul jade itself is a mineral that assists the soul, so it is relatively easier to produce spiritual intelligence.

In short, it was all kinds of chance that the current Hongyu was created.

Speaking of which, the birth of red jade was due to the dragon-tooth cypress above the soul jade mine. However, after the spiritual wisdom of the soul jade chalcedony was born, an irreconcilable contradiction occurred between the red jade and the dragon-tooth cypress.

Above the tree branch, the white-haired and elderly man sitting opposite the red jade was transformed by the soul of the dragon-toothed cypress.

Lao Bai and Hong Yu have been fighting for thousands of years.

The reason is also very simple.

After possessing spiritual intelligence, Hongyu quickly cultivated the powerful Yuanshen Soul Jade Spirit, which had a great nourishing effect on the Yuanshen, and Hongyu's body was even more pure than the Soul Jade Spirit, so he was very powerful in the Yuanshen. However, as time went by, Hongyu was no longer satisfied with the Yuanshen state, and he longed for a perfect body.

Hongyu's soul is very powerful, so the body he needs is naturally not just a monk who can just take over the body.

The dragon-tooth cypress growing above the Soul Jade Mine happens to have such conditions. The body of the dragon-tooth cypress seems to be very thick, and the diameter of the main trunk is even several kilometers. However, its real core is a small tree core. This tree core stores the essence of life condensed by the dragon-tooth cypress over tens of thousands of years. It can be said that even a small piece of the tree core is worthless. The flesh and bones of the living dead are simply the most basic operation. If a monk gets a tree core the size of a fingernail, he can instantly improve his body to a higher level by taking it directly.

Such a tree core is naturally the best material for red jade to create its own body.

If you have the physical body refined by the tree core, and combined with his extremely powerful soul, Hongyu's strength can be instantly increased to a terrifying level.

The most important thing is that although he can use the state of soul to move, he cannot stay away from the underground soul chalcedony, so his range of activities is actually very limited.

Once he successfully refines his body, he can completely integrate his soul chalcedony into his body, and then he can take the world to travel.

Freedom has great attraction to anyone.

Especially for people like Hongyu who have been underground for tens of thousands of years, their desire for freedom can be said to be beyond everything.

Therefore, even though the dragon-tooth cypress actually played a positive role in promoting the spiritual wisdom of the soul chalcedony, the red jade still began to seize the core of the dragon-tooth cypress thousands of years ago.

Of course, the core of the dragon-tooth cypress is protected by the old cypress in the core of the trunk. The red jade is just a soul body and it is definitely impossible to directly capture the core of the tree.

Therefore, what Hongyu has done over the past few thousand years is actually to seize the soul bead of Dragon Tooth Cypress.

The soul bead condenses the power of the dragon-tooth cypress primordial spirit. If the soul bead is swallowed by red jade, the dragon-tooth cypress will actually fall, and the only thing left is a huge tree body, but there is no spiritual intelligence.

At that time, Hongyu can naturally easily take out the tree core and refine an ideal body for herself.

Therefore, for thousands of years, the battle between Hongyu and Laobai has been revolving around the soul beads.

Although Longyabo has lived for tens of thousands of years and has existed since the spiritual era, his biggest shortcoming is that he cannot move.

It is difficult for ordinary tree demons to move, not to mention the dragon-toothed cypress with such a huge body.

Therefore, Longyabo cannot avoid Hongyu at all, and can only passively respond.

At the beginning, the two of them fought directly, not just the collision between the soul and the soul. If it was just a competition for the soul, even if the dragon-tooth cypress was born 20,000 years earlier than the red jade, he was at a disadvantage. Because the soul chalcedony itself is naturally powerful in the soul, so the red jade can suppress the old cypress in the soul, but the old cypress has a huge root system, and his body is extremely hard. In addition, the red jade also has shortcomings, that is, the soul jade mine is located below the dragon-tooth cypress, completely within the coverage of the dragon-tooth cypress root system.

Therefore, Lao Bai suffered repeated losses in the soul spirit competition, but he relied on his huge root system to continuously erode the soul jade mine, and even mined a lot of soul jade spirits to nourish his damaged soul.

Lao Bai's soul was damaged by the red jade, so he went to dig out the soul jade spirit and then replenish his soul.

Hongyu naturally focuses on using the opponent's battle method of the soul, but at the same time, he also constantly absorbs the life essence of the dragon-tooth cypress during the confrontation, and penetrates the tree core bit by bit. So although he will lose some soul jade essence, the absorbed life essence can accelerate the birth of the soul jade essence.

The battle between the two maintained a strange balance.

Of course, this balance is only on the surface, but in fact the balance of victory is tilting towards the red jade little by little.

Because although the process has always been maintained in a relatively balanced state, Hongyu has been penetrated into the tree core. Although the process is very slow, one day it can completely penetrate into the tree core.

In that case, a large amount of life essence will be stolen by Hongyu. His fundamental purpose of plotting the tree core is actually for the essence of life.

But this process will be so long that Hongyu himself can't stand it. The two of them had fought for thousands of years, and Hongyu's penetration of the tree core was only about 10%. Even if the penetration rate in the later stage will be faster, it will take at least 20,000 to 30,000 years to achieve his goal.

The time mentioned here is the time in the spiritual world, that is, the time in the spiritual ruins of the outside world. If the difference in time flow rate is taken into account, then this time must be multiplied by ten times.

This was unacceptable to him.

For Lao Bai, if Hongyu continues to penetrate like this, he will eventually die. Although the process will be long, the result will not change.

Lao Bai naturally couldn't accept such an ending.

Both of them are not satisfied with this situation, so there are third-party factors to break the situation.

The Lingxu monks discovered the Qingping Realm ruins and began to explore the ruins. In particular, the Lingxu monks changed to regularly explore the ruins. In order to maintain the stability of the ruins, they only sent the Nascent Soul monks to explore.

This has the conditions to break the deadlock.

One was unwilling to spend a lot of time on this matter, and the other didn't want to sit still and wait for death, so the two finally reached a compromise and agreed on a bet condition.

The agreement on betting is actually not complicated. Lao Bai selects a Yuanying cultivator from Lingxu to play against Hongyu. The winner gets all the pieces on both sides of the chess pieces, which are trophy. The pieces on the redyu side are directly made of the soul jade spirit with the highest purity, and the dragon-tooth cypress even divides some of the tree cores to make the pieces.

It can be said that what they took out were things that the other party was eager to get.

Moreover, this greatly accelerates the process of deciding the winner.

As for the two of them not playing directly, Lao Bai chose a spokesperson to represent him in playing against Hongyu. The reason is simple. Hongyu's chess skills are much worse than Lao Bai. When the two played ten games, it was difficult for him to win one game. He was destined to lose. Unless he was a fool, he would definitely not agree.

Lao Bai is on the weak side, so he can only accept this not very fair bet agreement.

After all, he had no idea about the Lingxu cultivator at all, so he could only make a general judgment based on the strength of the other party's mental power. As for the strength of cultivation, it was not particularly important.

Of course, Lao Bai can also choose to refuse to bet, but the result is that he will eventually be completely swallowed by Hongyu, which is nothing more than lingering for longer.

Therefore, every time the Lingxu monks enter the Qingpingjie ruins to explore, some monks will inexplicably disappear in the Longya Cypress area of ​​the Hedong grassland.

However, the Lingxu monks have explored the relics of Qingpingjie in succession, and the casualties were very heavy. There were countless people missing on the Hedong grassland, so they did not attract the attention of the outside world at all.

The unequal treaty decided by Hongyu is still effective.

Before this, they made eight bets in total, and Hongyu won 8 to 0, and the Lingxu monks did not win at once.

The Lingxu monk who lost the game naturally became the nourishment for the dragon-tooth cypress and had no chance to leave here alive.

Over the past few hundred years, every time Long Yabai loses, his strength will drop by one point. If he loses again this time, it will probably be difficult for him to maintain a balance.

This indeed greatly accelerates the process of separating results between the two sides.

Hongyu was not worried that Lao Bai would stop betting. If Lao Bai wanted to kill the bet, he would not agree to the bet hundreds of years ago. This was his only hope.

This time, the Qingping Realm ruins had just opened. Xia Rufei was even the first group of monks to come to the Longya Cypress area. Lao Bai directly chose Xia Rufei as his spokesperson for this competition, which surprised Hongyu.

The Lingxu monks have explored the ruins so many times, and Hongyu has also understood some rules. He knows that the cultivators coming in later will be much stronger, while the previous few batches are unsatisfactory.

Hongyu didn't expect that Lao Bai had chosen Xia Rufei so decisively this time, so he said whether Lao Bai had already given up.

However, since Lao Bai made a choice, Hong Yu naturally would not interfere. Especially when he saw Lao Bai unable to control his emotions, he felt even happier, which means that he was getting closer and closer to victory.

Well! If you win the Lingxu monk this time, you can launch a full-scale attack on Lao Bai. Maybe when the Lingxu monk enters the ruins next time, the Dragon-Tooth Cypress will be completely out of life!

At this time, Lao Bai said coldly: "Old rules, you can decide the way to play chess, but I have to give me a day to guide the Lingxu monks!"

This rule has always been followed in so many competitions.

Back then, there were many different ways of playing games in the spiritual world, and after the spiritual monks came in, they also brought some fresh chess gameplay, so the way they chose each time was decided by Hongyu, after all, his chess skills were worse.

For Longyabo, he only needs to learn the rules and will soon be able to beat Hongyu in chess.

However, considering that the chess power of Lingxu monks is very uncertain, the two sides agreed that Lao Bai could provide guidance to Lingxu monks for one day and start a formal competition the next day.
