Chapter 775 - 371: Soul-Guarding Corpse Thunder, a Harvest of One Million

Chapter 775: Chapter 371: Soul-Guarding Corpse Thunder, a Harvest of One Million

As for the previous plan to first focus on cultivating the Three Thousand Blood Inks, it can now be shelved in the face of 3.5 million of True Spirit Demonic Qi. The Three Corpses and Five Ghosts can be cultivated simultaneously.

As for the Law-Devouring Yin Insect, Wen Jiu also tried using the True Spirit Demonic Qi to nurture it, but since the Law-Devouring Yin Insect prefers to consume laws, it’s easy to imagine that the effect of using True Spirit Demonic Qi wouldn’t be significant.

After continuing to examine the gains from this journey, Wen Jiu finally focused on himself. The East Spring Undying Bone had improved to the Tier Three Peak, providing a powerful feedback boost, directly raising his cultivation to the Middle Stage of Golden Core.

Initially, Wen Jiu thought the feedback would just be so, but unexpectedly, the transformation of the East Spring Undying Bone into the realm of the Extreme Undying Corpse Demon also brought feedback, precisely enhancing his Spirit Root.

Although it didn’t elevate the True Spirit Root by one grade, remaining at a middle grade, the success rate of the Golden Core transforming into the Heaven-Reaching Outer Dao Nascent Soul increased to 25%.

It increased by a whole 10%!

It may seem small, but for Wen Jiu, it was another solid step towards the transformation of his Golden Core into the Heaven-Reaching Outer Dao Nascent Soul.

Adding to that, his own Undying Celestial Yin Golden Body also increased by 5%.

Currently, the chance for Wen Jiu’s own Golden Core to transform into the Heaven-Reaching Outer Dao Nascent Soul has reached as high as 20%.

Don’t underestimate just 20%.

It’s likely an unattainable opportunity for the lower, middle, and even upper regions of the Hundred Floating Domains.

Perhaps it’s because the entire Hundred Floating Domains seldom have anyone forming the Heaven-Reaching Outer Dao, they researched the Path of Perfection, leading to the Extreme Evil Path taken by the East Spring Undying Bone.

"I definitely won’t follow a path like the Path of Extreme Evil, as it could make me the target of all. So, I can only take the path of the Heaven-Reaching Outer Dao Nascent Soul. Most importantly, I have an External Golden Core and will have an External Nascent Soul. I will eventually maximize the success rate of transforming the Golden Core into the Heaven-Reaching Outer Dao Nascent Soul."

At this moment, Wen Jiu couldn’t help but envision the future.

The next moment.

Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to retract the Spirit-Extinguishing Ghost Qi, revealing the corpse body, planning to check on the True Spirit Demon Tree Mother Tree.

At the same time, Wen Jiu instructed the Three Thousand Blood Inks to once again divine the plans for this trip.

After paying the same life force cost as before, the previously sustained ʻModerate Fortuneʼ hexagram finally changed.

It has now become ʻGreat Fortuneʼ!

...

Just as Wen Jiu was about to act, the Lord of Celestial Demons suddenly transmitted a message.

"Senior, there’s a situation with the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll; it’s continuously expanding!"

Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to scan with his Divine Sense, but before his Divine Sense could enter the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll, the nearly collapsing surge of Magical Power waves was sweeping like a tidal wave.

In less than half a day, the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll is likely to completely shatter.

"Interesting."

Wen Jiu previously used the Divine Sense of the East Spring Undying Bone to probe the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll, and the restricting force brought by the Ghost Eye inside was sufficient to withstand the attacks of a Golden Core Perfection Cultivator, even the Tier Three Top-Grade Ancient Treasure Talisman of Gu Qinghe couldn’t easily shake it.

Yet, it’s only been a day, and the restrictive force within the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll is showing signs of breaking.

When Wen Jiu extended his Divine Sense inside, he could no longer detect Gu Qinghe’s presence.

That Tier Three Top-Grade Ancient Treasure Talisman had also shattered, scattered like shards of glass within the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll.

Similarly, Anchaosheng’s Tier Three Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact, the Demon Roar Celestial Sound Bell, had also shattered into dozens of pieces, its killing intent dissipated.

As for Gu Qinghe, his lower body had disappeared, leaving only his disheveled upper body lying amidst ruins, his innards scattered, and his Spirit Body deplorably dilapidated. At this point, Gu Qinghe had no trace of life, truly dead. On his aged face, Wen Jiu saw a strong sense of unwillingness.

As if unwilling to have been schemed by Nangong Huan.

As if unwilling to have fallen here.

A myriad of unwillingness converged, putting an end to his imperfect life.

As for Gu Qinghe’s Divine Soul, it had been shattered by the Demon Roar Celestial Sound Bell, dispersing in the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll like willow catkins blowing in the wind, gradually dissipating. Let alone reconstructing it, he no longer had the chance to reincarnate.

As for Anchaosheng, although the Demon Roar Celestial Sound Bell had shattered, his Demon Body merely had some minor injuries.

His aura remained quite stable.

The power currently dismantling the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll originated from within Anchaosheng, yet seemed to come from elsewhere too.

In short, this power didn’t belong to Anchaosheng; it merely used his Demon Body to burst forth.

This power was like an ever-growing giant, continuously stretching the limits of the restriction, approaching its extreme bearing capacity.

Originally, Wen Jiu thought it would take another half a day, but upon closer inspection, the restrictive force in the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll might not even last an hour before it breaks. As for the power within Anchaosheng, Wen Jiu couldn’t discern much, only knowing it to be Demonic Qi.

But it’s certain that this power has truly reached the Golden Core Perfection Realm.

Currently, without using the Extreme Evil Blood Sea True Technique Divine Techniques or the Power of the Undying Corpse Demon, even using the power of the Thunder Spirit Demon Blood Body of the East Spring Undying Bone, its limit would be just this.

"Perhaps eight or nine out of ten it comes from that Demon Lord." Wen Jiu speculates, but he doesn’t care about the exact source.

Although he still experimented with the Corpse Fate Technique to divine, after confirming that with the current power of the Three Thousand Blood Inks, no result could be divined, he no longer bothered. After withdrawing his Divine Sense, Wen Jiu ordered the Lord of Celestial Demons to hide in the shadows.

When Anchaosheng breaks out, then enter the Mountain Pavilion Painting Scroll and retrieve the Ghost Eye for him.

The Lord of Celestial Demons might not be able to perceive the location of the Ghost Eye, but with his guidance, finding the Ghost Eye would be easy.

In this way.

He saves himself the trouble.

The meaning of having the Lord of Celestial Demons lies precisely here.

Convenience!

...

Meanwhile.

In front of the Black Hall, when all other True Spirit Demon Trees lost contact, Lin Yingyun Mountain’s fury reached its peak. However, even when desperately burning his Divine Soul, he could only temporarily suppress Nangong Huan and Mingyi.

Because of this, Lin Yingyun Mountain’s anger was tinged with some despair.

He had collected sixteen True Spirit Demon Trees.

It seems that Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion intervened.

Such methods, just like Mingyi deceiving Nangong Huan through words, were likely only possible by a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

A Nascent Soul True Monarch certainly wouldn’t engage in such acts, so it’s highly probable that it was a Perfect Golden Core from the Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion.

Lin Yingyun Mountain angrily proclaimed, "Mingyi, your East Splendor Divine Palace and Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion always proclaim not to interfere in the Floating Domain’s affairs, only acting as merchants. Now not only ruining my opportunity but also disrupting the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect’s plans.

Just wait, once the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect gets the message, whether it’s your East Splendor Divine Palace or Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion, you’ll pay the price. Today you’ve taken sixteen True Spirit Demon Trees, tomorrow your East Splendor Divine Palace and Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion must repay tenfold, a hundredfold!"

Immediately, Lin Yingyun Mountain turned to Nangong Huan, mocking, "Nangong Huan, you truly are laughable and pathetic."

With these words.

Lin Yingyun Mountain lost the will to fight.

Since he couldn’t mortally wound the two, he wouldn’t bother continuing, opting to trap them instead.

The Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion spoiling his opportunity meant he was bent on revenge even unto death. Gathering his entire force to seal Nangong Huan and Mingyi, as long as the demon cultivators from the Dark Altar Lineage could relay this incident to the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, there would be demon cultivators to avenge him.

After making the decision, Lin Yingyun Mountain switched from attack to defense, trapping the two while using the True Spirit Demon Tree to once again transmit to the demon cultivators.

After fully explaining the situation, he instructed over ten thousand demon cultivators to disperse swiftly, with the sole aim.

To transmit the message back to the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect.

The demon cultivators who originally were on the way, upon receiving this message, knew why the Demon Array had collapsed.

Without hesitation, over ten thousand demon cultivators quickly transformed into light and fled in all directions. At this moment, they had only one belief.

To transmit the message back!

The East Splendor Divine Palace and Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion, they must pay the price for this!

Nascent Soul level forces?

The Demon Dao is not without!

"Finally, we’ve cornered them." Meanwhile, seeing Lin Yingyun Mountain completely lose his will to fight, Nangong Huan was overjoyed.

Mingyi was equally joyful while scoffing lightly, "At this point, still thinking of sowing discord, truly laughable."
