165: The Suspicion of the Golden-Eyed Demon King, Introduction to Sword Qi! (Subscribe)

Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range.

Golden Eye Mountain.

Inside an Immortal Cave adorned with gold and jade sculptures halfway up the mountain.

The mountain-like, burly Jin Jing Demon King sat before a jade table. Half a step in front of him, a mirror, nearly a foot long, floated. On its surface was a green-furred monkey demon.

This green-furred monkey demon also had a pair of flapping green wings on its back.

“Great King.”

“The eight Great Demon Generals of Jade Dragon Mountain suddenly left the Nine Dragons River area.”

“They did not continue to move upstream.”

“I and two other Core Formation Cultivator Fellow Daoists have confirmed that they have all returned to the territory of Jade Dragon Mountain.”

A deep, middle-aged man’s voice came from the monkey demon’s mouth, speaking respectfully to the Jin Jing Demon King.

“They left?”

“That’s good, that’s good!”

“That Old Black Snake, he only knows how to scare me. Eight patrolling Demon Generals came out in full force, led by a Late Core Formation Stage climber, heading straight for my territory. I thought he wanted to fight me.”

The Jin Jing Demon King slammed his fist onto the jade table, instantly shattering it to dust. His eyes were filled with rage as he cursed loudly.

“Great King, don’t let it upset your health.”

“The Old Demon Snake of Jade Dragon Mountain wouldn’t act without reason. Perhaps that old fellow’s target isn’t us, but someone else?”

“Let our lurking Demon General in Jade Dragon Mountain inquire about it.”

“Perhaps we can find out why the Demon Generals of Jade Dragon Mountain came out in full force.”

The petite Fragrant Fox hurried forward, speaking with a breath like orchids.

At the same time, she took out another white jade table from her Storage Pouch and placed it in front of him, then poured a cup of spiritual wine from a jar.

“Hmm, that makes sense.”

“That Old Snake is becoming increasingly restless.”

“I need to communicate with the other Fellow Daoists in the vicinity.”

“I’ll go out for a trip first.”

“In the direction of Jade Dragon Mountain, deploy more of our mountain’s Demon Generals to investigate. Report to me immediately if there’s any disturbance.”

Jin Jing stood up and said to the Fragrant Fox beside him.

“Yes, Great King.”

“This servant will give the orders now.”

Fragrant Fox bowed.

Fragrant Fox knew very well that she had gained the Great King’s trust, and the affairs of the mountain were beginning to be entrusted to her.

She also knew that it was all because she had acquired a Formation Plate useful to the Great King, which could help the Great King and his subordinates break through the Formation outside the Secret Realm.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Jin Jing Demon King transformed into a streak of azure light and flew out of the Immortal Cave, disappearing into the distant rolling clouds within a few breaths.

…

…

Five Elements Immortal City.

Qingyue Peak.

Inside the Level 3 Evil Cave where You Tong once resided.

The Evil Qi within this Evil Cave had now been completely devoured by the Demonic Fiend Vine.

At this moment.

Shi Chuan also sensed a Core Formation-level Demonic Fiend Vine burrowing from underground. In a flash, it appeared in the cave, a vine ball the size of an adult’s fist, exuding a formidable Core Formation-level aura.

In an instant, this branch of the Demonic Fiend Vine merged into Shi Chuan’s abdomen, becoming pure nourishment for the main body of the Demonic Fiend Vine.

The Demonic Fiend Vine, which had been stuck at a Realm barrier, immediately saw its aura greatly increase, stepping into the Core Formation-level, and continued to rise until it slowly stopped at the Middle Core Formation stage.

As expected of Nascent Soul Stage Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi! Absorbing the power of a Nascent Soul provided a boost to the Demonic Fiend Vine almost comparable to the boost from a Level 4 Evil Cave!

However, Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators are not so easy to parasitize.

The Bloodline within Ge Long of Jade Dragon Mountain possessed a demonic servant mark passed down through generations. That might also mean that there might be Yuanying demonic cultivators in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range who are like Ge Long.

They were once spiritual pets raised within Nascent Soul Sects. Later, the Human Race Cultivator in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range encountered a catastrophe, which allowed this group of spiritual pets to Cultivate, transforming from demonic servants into masters.

“Set up new intelligence keywords.”

“Search for Yuanying demonic cultivators in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range, like Ge Long of Jade Dragon Mountain, whose Bloodline possesses a demonic servant mark.”

【Successfully set up new intelligence keywords.】

…

Next, once the Wizard Emperor brings the Essence Gathering Pill and Core Formation spiritual items, I can form my Core!

The Core Formation will take place in the Five Elements Immortal City, with the Wizard Emperor and Wan Lixuan, along with other Core Formation Cultivators, providing protection.

Furthermore, Wan Lixuan had already prepared an alias. A Heavenly Spiritual Root Disciple he had once taken, Xu Changqing, was preparing to break through to the Core Formation Stage in seclusion three years ago when he was invaded by a Heart Demon in his Sea of Consciousness.

Ultimately, a flaw in his Divine Soul Cultivation led to his death and the dissipation of his Dao.

Although the Disciple died, Wan Lixuan did not publicize it. To the outside world, he merely stated that his Disciple, Xu Changqing, was in seclusion preparing to break through to Core Formation.

This was also a deterrent to other Cultivators!

After all, he might produce a Core Formation Stage Disciple, which would increase his standing in the eyes of other Cultivators as a Level 3 Alchemist.

Now, this Disciple’s identity, which had not yet been revealed, could be used by Shi Chuan.

Inside the Evil Cave.

Shi Chuan sat on a Spiritual Plant cushion, his azure robe swaying without wind.

Swish!

The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, and two crescent Sword Qi, as white as jade, shot out. After tracing two white streaks in the air, they left two deep crescent Sword Qi marks on the opposite cave wall.

With the Moon Imprint Sword Qi as the imprint, the Nine Heavens Sword Qi Art had already been cultivated to the first layer!

In Shi Chuan’s opinion, to move freely within the Nine Heavens Secret Realm, coveted by the Jin Jing Great King and other Nascent Soul demonic Cultivators, it would be better to Cultivate the Nine Heavens Sword Qi Art to the second layer.

Only by condensing a Moon Imprint Sword Qi Law Seed would it be truly secure.

After he forms his Core, cultivating the Nine Heavens Sword Qi Art will naturally allow for faster advancement.

Before cultivating this Nine Heavens Sword Qi Art, he had also used intelligence to verify it once. There were no hidden schemes to harm him, so he could Cultivate it with confidence.

After all, the Legacy of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect had already been cut off, greatly reducing the possibility of being harmed!

However, to advance the Nine Heavens Sword Qi Art more quickly, it could devour and plunder the ordinary Sword Qi cultivated by lower-level Cultivators, integrating it into the Moon Imprint Sword Qi to nourish its advancement.

The Moon Imprint Sword Qi is one of the Ten Great Legacy Sword Qi of the Nine Heavens Sect, superior to ordinary Sword Qi. Its characteristic is that it can devour other ordinary Sword Qi to strengthen itself.

From this characteristic, it seems that regardless of whether it’s the Demonic Path or the Righteous Path, in Cultivation Techniques of the same Realm, the strong can always devour the weak to become stronger.

If Qu Linglu of the Twin Saints Sect, before her time, had a Nascent Soul Stage Old Ancestor in the Sect who cultivated the Senluo Nirvana Sutra, then Qu Linglu would have been a cultivated tonic.

However, the Profound Wood Spiritual Body is extremely rare, so this possibility can be ruled out.

Even the Wizard Emperor, in Kong Yu’s memories, could not find any danger in this regard, which is enough to rule it out!

…

…

Not long after.

The Wizard Emperor arrived at Five Elements Immortal City with many spiritual items to aid in Core Formation.

Shi Chuan collected them all.

A dazzling array of Core Formation spiritual items floated within the Evil Cave, causing the Spiritual Qi concentration within the Evil Cave to significantly increase in a short period.

Shi Chuan did not delay. He planned to form his Core in the Immortal City tomorrow, leveraging this Core Formation phenomenon to also help increase the Luck of the Five Elements Immortal City. This was killing two birds with one stone.
