Chapter 1025: Demonic Path Golden Core_5

“Moreover, even if they discover it, what can they do? There are no major forces around here.”

“Some minor sects and factions, upon hearing the name of our Underworld, would be too scared to even approach. Do you really think anyone would dare come here looking for death?”

The Yin Envoy, carrying a blood-colored war hammer, did not say anything further.

The two quietly waited for three days.

On the fourth day, as the morning sun rose from the distant horizon, a mass of dark purple demonic aura suddenly surged behind Shen Chongxu, who was sitting cross-legged on the deserted island!

This demonic aura rapidly coalesced into a terrifying figure over ten feet tall behind him!

The figure had a beast-skin waistcloth and was bare-chested, with muscular arms dragon-like and exuding an overwhelmingly domineering aura!

Roar!

At the moment the shadow formed by the demonic aura took shape, it let out a thunderous roar at the oppressive black clouds overhead!

Subsequently, the figure grasped the void, and a massive amount of primordial demonic aura quickly formed an archaic battle axe in its hand!

With the battle axe in hand, the shadow formed by the demonic aura became even more wild.

With another roar, the figure wielded the axe directly at the thick clouds!

The dark golden axe blade radiated as it flew out, splitting the thick clouds apart and leaving a horrifying mark in the void!

The mark slowly split open, forming a golden portal!

Seeing this, the two cultivators from the Underworld both showed astonishment.

“Such a domineering way to open the Celestial Gate.”

“This demon cultivator seems somewhat different from those we have seen before.”

Before the words of the tall and thin Yin Envoy finished, he saw an even more shocking scene.

Below the island, the demonic shadow behind Shen Chongxu was not satisfied after splitting open the Celestial Gate with one axe.

It actually raised its axe once more and continuously swung dozens of axe blade beams towards the golden, glowing gate!

“What is this guy trying to do?”

The Yin Envoy, carrying a blood-colored war hammer, was a bit stunned.

The Celestial Gate was open, and wasn’t the next step to absorb the purest heaven and earth Spiritual Qi descending from it?

The two couldn’t understand Shen Chongxu’s current actions.

While they were in shock and confusion, the demonic shadow behind Shen Chongxu had already swung hundreds of axe blade beams, all smashing onto the Celestial Gate in the void.

This action seemed to have angered Heaven.

A golden thunderbolt suddenly shot out from the Celestial Gate, directly obliterating the demonic shadow behind Shen Chongxu!

Ugh!

Affected by the backlash, Shen Chongxu couldn’t help but spew a mouthful of fresh blood.

Yet, in the next moment, he abruptly opened his eyes and gathered the pure Spiritual Power descending from the Celestial Gate in front of him, continuously compressing it into dense Spiritual Qi spheres.

Compared to primordial demonic aura, this so-called pure heaven and earth Spiritual Power was still somewhat deficient in quality.

Absorbing this power would require him to waste his heart spirit converting it, better not to absorb it.

Intending to condense this pure heaven and earth Spiritual Qi together, Shen Chongxu planned to have Wushi Qianrou summon the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace to collect the Qi into the furnace, but his Divine Sense sweep couldn’t locate Wushi Qianrou.

“I had him go back to seek help.”

The voice of Celestial Demon He Yi sounded in his Sea of Consciousness.

“People from the Underworld are nearby, I thought of a good way to make sure you don’t need to explain too much to that old monkey from the Nascent Soul Realm later.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Chongxu only thought briefly before understanding He Yi’s meaning.

The folks from the Underworld seemed to have a deep understanding of Golden Nature, enabling them to easily capture Immortal Golden Nature.

Let them seize your Golden Nature and figure out a way to survive; it’s actually a good plan.

“Are you really not going to absorb the heaven and earth Spiritual Qi descending from the Celestial Gate?”

He Yi spoke again.

This heaven and earth Spiritual Power, although not as potent as primordial demonic aura, was ultimately quite pure. Absorbing it and refining it a bit could also increase one’s cultivation.

With a sneer, Shen Chongxu replied: “No need.”

“I originally planned for Qianrou to collect this Spiritual Power into the Netherworld Dog Filth Furnace to nourish the Blood Puppet Avatar.”

“Since that’s the case, it’s better to let this sea area’s demon beasts have it.”

As he spoke, he dispersed the heaven and earth Spiritual Qi, letting it blend into the seawater below.

“This person is truly a fool!”

“This is the purest power of heaven and earth, even demon cultivators can absorb it.”

“He wasted it like this?”

“What a squandering!”

The two from the Underworld naturally didn’t know that Shen Chongxu followed the path of ancient demon cultivation, regularly absorbing primordial demonic aura in his practices, unlike normal cultivators who would eagerly absorb such power from heaven and earth.

After dispersing the heaven and earth Spiritual Qi, Shen Chongxu noticed the Celestial Gate overhead was beginning to show signs of wanting to close.

“Immortal Golden Nature is about to appear, you’ll need to help deal with those from the Underworld.”

Although he was a demon cultivator, he didn’t possess soul artifacts like the Wisdom Sword, nor methods like Xu Zhan’s Evil Demon that could restrain the Underworld.

He would need assistance from Celestial Demon He Yi to possibly fend off the attacks from the Underworld until reinforcements arrived.

“Don’t worry, I have ways to deal with them.”

Celestial Demon He Yi’s expression was very relaxed, seemingly not very worried about the cultivators from the Underworld.

A half-day quickly passed.

When the Celestial Gate finally closed, the phenomenon of Immortal Golden Nature descending slowly appeared.

“Brother Tuoba, old rules, you grab the Golden Nature, I’ll kill the people.”

The Yin Envoy took down the blood-colored war hammer from his back, displaying a sadistic grin.

The tall, thin Yin Envoy nodded, looking up at the large amount of golden light slowly descending from the void.
