Chapter 581 - 501: Corrupted Nascent Soul

Chapter 581: Chapter 501: Corrupted Nascent Soul

"No...no problem."

After a long silence, Wu Luo True Monarch finally replied weakly.

Upon thorough reflection, she had no choice but to accept a despairing fact—Su Yuan’s outrageous suggestion was actually the best strategy at the moment, without a doubt.

"Then there’s no time to lose, let’s act quickly."

Su Yuan said eagerly.

Wu Luo True Monarch was speechless.

Fine, fine, when it comes to doing your proper duties, you just go through the motions, but when it’s about doing bad things, you’re energized and eager to compete, right?

The mix is just too complicated.

However, she only complained a little in her heart, not saying anything on the surface and just nodded lightly.

Without hesitation, Su Yuan directly summoned the Corruption Golden Core and spoke to the artifact spirit hidden inside:

"Xiaofu, let’s go all out this time, we’re not extracting from those illusions in the Taixu World, but from a real five million elite Demon Race."

"Yes, Master."

Xiaofu’s childlike voice echoed from within the Corruption Golden Core, filled with excitement.

As an Immortal Treasure of the Flesh and Blood Dao, the Crown of Corruption is undoubtedly an evil magical treasure, even if its artifact spirit is a newborn child, it possesses a cruel nature.

Normally, unless the user could suppress the Crown of Corruption with great divine techniques, they would inevitably suffer backlash sooner or later.

But in Su Yuan’s hands, there was no possibility of such backlash from the Crown of Corruption.

Because before it could backlash, Su Yuan had already fed it well.

Such a good patron is hard to find, so how could the Crown of Corruption possibly oppose Su Yuan?

With a thought, Su Yuan quickly locked onto the twenty Nascent Soul Stage demon generals located in the Ten Immortals City through the perception ability brought by the Primordial Dao.

At this time, these demon generals were all placed in residences equipped with powerful arrays, secretly monitored by powerful Human Race cultivators.

"Primordial Lock!"

Invisible chains extended from the void, silently binding these twenty Demon Race Nascent Souls, sealing their cultivation and movement.

Immediately, twenty crimson lines surged from the Corruption Golden Core, piercing through space, directly stabbing into these Demon Race Nascent Souls, swiftly extracting all their power.

This sudden change made the Nascent Soul demon generals, who were originally resting in their respective homes, change their expressions drastically!

There was no need to think, it must be the Blue Star Human Race betraying them!

At this moment, the Nascent Soul demon generals dared not hesitate in the slightest, struggling desperately.

Some tried using their innate divine techniques to break free from the Primordial Lock, others attempted to reveal their demon form to burst the Primordial Lock, while some tried to unleash the Power of the Muddy World, treating the Primordial Lock as nonexistent.

Suppressing twenty Nascent Souls in one go was not an easy task for Su Yuan.

Maintaining so many Celestial Locks was rapidly consuming his spiritual power, and within seconds, half of his spiritual power was exhausted.

For a moment, several powerful Nascent Soul demon generals almost broke free of the control by taking advantage of the lack of spiritual power supply to the Primordial Lock.

Fortunately, Su Yuan was not fighting alone; the human race powerhouses guarding these Nascent Soul demon generals quickly took action, activating arrays to suppress these Nascent Soul demon generals.

Once the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Demon Race began to flow back to the Corruption Golden Core, the hardest part was already overcome.

"Twenty Nascent Soul demon generals’ essences, how should I arrange them?"

While maintaining the power of the Corruption Golden Core, Su Yuan pondered in his heart.

In terms of value, allowing any Nascent Soul cultivator to instantly raise several small realms is immeasurable in terms of money.

If Su Yuan wanted to charge for it, tens of billions, even hundreds of billions, would be easy to come by.

But to be honest, at his current realm, having so much money doesn’t mean much anymore; what’s more important is the enhancement of himself.

"Rather than selling the essence of these Nascent Soul demon generals, I might as well use it for myself. The spiritual power needed for condensing a Divine Created Nascent Soul is not small."

"Moreover, I can elevate the cultivation of my Mixed Element Nascent Soul a bit further."

The flesh and blood Dao required for the promotion of a Divine Created Nascent Soul or Corrupted Nascent Soul doesn’t require Su Yuan to rack his brains; the Evil Extermination Sword Sect has a considerable stock.

Su Yuan, being at least a member of the Evil Extermination Sword Sect, can just ask the sect for what’s lacking.

As for the promotion of the Mixed Element Nascent Soul, there’s no need to seek new Primordial Dao just yet.

The branch of the Primordial Dao obtained from the Fake Chu Jiang is enough for him to not worry about the essence of the Great Dao before reaching the Nascent Soul Sixth Layer.

He intended to take full advantage of this extraction from the Mystic World demon generals to fill his own pockets, greatly enhancing his combat power.

While pondering this, a small unexpected change suddenly drew Su Yuan’s attention back to reality.

As the deputy to Chu Jiang, one of the two deputy commanders of the demon clan, Black Fury, broke through the array defense by explosive means, appearing above the Ten Immortals City.

At this moment, Black Fury’s body was densely covered with black fur, his form swelling several times larger than when he was in human form, turning into a half-human, half-beast entity.

Deep marks were evident on his body surface, where the Primordial Lock bound him like a black dumpling.

Yet, even so, Black Fury howled in anger and sorrow over the skyscraper-filled Ten Immortals City.

"Commander Chu! The Blue Star Human Race has betrayed us after using us! Hurry, flee! Quickly flee!!!"

The voice of Black Storm was extraordinarily loud, piercing the silent night sky with clarity, almost echoing through half of Ten Immortals City, and naturally, it reached the ears of Chu Mo.

Hearing the deputy general’s shout, Chu Mo’s expression was complicated.

She glanced at the four Divinity Transformation Great Powers standing not far from her, a bitter smile on her pretty face.

Escape?

Where could she escape to?

Besides, she never intended to escape. Su Yuan had his own concerns, and although she was pained by her subordinates’ plight, she could only accept it.

At the very least, her subordinates’ lives were spared, and they still had the opportunity to restore their cultivation in the future.

If they had resisted, she believed that the Blue Star Human Race would not have been so kind.

"Hmph, you’re worried about others when you can’t even protect yourself. Truly loyal."

Su Yuan let out a cold snort, adopting a villainous tone as he shouted:

"Since you’re so jumpy, I’ll drain you first."

The next second, the Corruption Golden Core harshly targeted Black Storm, and his body visibly shriveled and weakened, eventually reverting to an ordinary demon in human form, lacking even Foundation Establishment cultivation, and was locked up again.

Twenty Nascent Soul Demon Generals were swiftly dealt with by Su Yuan in this manner.

And the pure cultivation and flesh and blood power obtained from them were stored within the Corruption Golden Core.

"Xiaofu, are you willing to become the spirit of my Nascent Soul?"

Su Yuan communicated with the Artifact Spirit of the Crown of Corruption using his mind, his tone very sincere.

Having absorbed to its satisfaction, Xiaofu immediately said:

"Of course I am, you’re my best master."

"Then let’s merge into one."

Su Yuan replied with a faint smile, then sent Xiaofu the part of the Artifact Spirit’s cooperation needed in the Divine Creation Nascent Soul Forging Method.

Xiaofu quickly read through this miraculous Nascent Soul Formation method, then began cooperating with Su Yuan.

Under Su Yuan’s control and Xiaofu’s cooperation, the Artifact Spirit of the Immortal Treasure rapidly further fused with Su Yuan’s Outer Pill.

The essence of the twenty Nascent Soul Demon Generals was heavily consumed, and a transformation, birthing new life, began inside the Corruption Golden Core.

Everyone present sensed Su Yuan’s changing aura, first in surprise, then with expressions of joy and relief.

Time quickly passed, and half an hour went by.

With a "crack" like an eggshell breaking, a little figure broke through the shell of the Corruption Golden Core, appearing before everyone present.

She was a little girl dressed in a red bellyband, with a bun hairstyle, looking like a porcelain doll.

This little girl bore no resemblance in appearance to Su Yuan’s true form, clearly fashioned after the Artifact Spirit of the Crown of Corruption’s preference.

At this moment, the little girl was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, surrounded by a demonic red glow.

Wherever the red glow shone, even the air twisted, as if sprouting hair and flesh, looking extremely eerie.

This was the Corrupted Nascent Soul, formed by merging Su Yuan’s cultivation with the Crown of Corruption as a base.

While Su Yuan had absolute control over the Corrupted Nascent Soul, it also possessed high autonomy, almost serving as an external manifestation of a Nascent Soul Stage.

However, under normal circumstances, Su Yuan would not allow Xiaofu to wander around with his second Nascent Soul.

Xiaofu was not benevolent; if not careful, it could cause the death of many.

Moreover, the Corrupted Nascent Soul shared a trait with the Corruption Golden Core, which was the ability to switch Immortal Treasures to obtain new Nascent Soul effects.

But even if it was replaced, Xiaofu would remain strongly bound to Su Yuan’s second Nascent Soul, as would the Artifact Spirit of the newly switched-in Immortal Treasure.

This also meant that any Immortal Treasure fused as Su Yuan’s second Nascent Soul could only be used by him, not loaned to others.

Aside from the Crown of Corruption, the only Immortal Treasure meeting such a condition was the Profound Strange Demon Sword.

However, convincing the Profound Strange Sword to become his Nascent Soul was problematic, as it was quite rebellious.

Especially recently, when it regained some intelligence and realized that Su Yuan had given part of its source to the Chi Yuan Sword, it wished dearly to devour Su Yuan alive.

After nurturing the second Nascent Soul, Su Yuan still didn’t stop, immediately mobilizing the remaining power from the twenty Nascent Soul Demon Generals, pouring it into his main Nascent Soul.

His cultivation, consequently, surged.

Nascent Soul First Layer, Nascent Soul First Layer Peak, Nascent Soul Second Layer, Nascent Soul Second Layer Peak...

Before long, he broke through the minor bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Early Stage in one go, reaching the Nascent Soul Fourth Layer.

At this point, Su Yuan stood in the same realm as his mentor, Taibai Phecda.

After elevating his main Nascent Soul to the peak of the Nascent Soul Fourth Layer, Su Yuan temporarily halted.

The skyrocketing power required adaptation, needing a month or two to balance the surged cultivation, then slowly elevating the cultivation to his current achievable limit.

As for the surplus of the demon generals’ essence, Su Yuan didn’t keep it; he infused it directly into the Corrupted Nascent Soul, granting it a Nascent Soul Third Layer realm right after its breakthrough.

The Corrupted Nascent Soul, with Xiaofu’s assistance in balancing its power, required no concern from him.
