521: Refining the Seventy-two Demon Tombs

“Master, Tian Mo generally refers to mortal rank Tian Mo, corresponding to mortal rank human cultivators.”

“While Immortal Rank Five, namely True Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, Profound Immortal, Golden Immortal, and Grand Unity Golden Immortal, corresponds to Tian Mo King of first to fifth grade.”

“Therefore, a Fifth Grade Demon King is a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.”

“Further up, Immortal Rank Six to Eight, namely Saint Immortal, Immortal Venerable, and Immortal Lord, corresponds to low, middle, and high-grade Demon Lords.”

“Immortal King of Immortal Rank Nine corresponds to Tian Mo Emperor. Immortal Emperor of Immortal Rank Ten corresponds to Tian Mo Emperor!”

“Thus, judging from the memories of the Great Demon King Montian, the owners of these tombs, before their deaths, were at least Tian Mo Emperor of Immortal Rank Nine, equivalent to the existence of an Immortal King!”

Li Hunyuan was so excited he almost roared.

It was truly too shocking.

Reaching the level of Tian Mo Emperor, he no longer possessed the malevolence of a Tian Mo, the terror of a Tian Mo, nor did he emit endless negative energy.

Instead, he was an existence that had pursued the essence of the Great Dao, almost infinitely close to the Demonic Dao.

Above that was a Demon God!

He was the deity of the Tian Mo!

“This is indeed a bit unbelievable. Since it’s the tomb of a Tian Mo Emperor, who is so powerful that he could refine him into such a magical artifact?”

Guo Feng’s heart trembled a little.

He was only at the True Immortal realm, a hundred and eight thousand miles away from an Immortal King, a difference of hundreds of millions of times.

“It should be the work of a powerful Tian Mo Emperor, or even a Tian Mo Emperor, a great emperor among the Tian Mo!”

Li Hunyuan’s voice trembled even more intensely.

A Tian Mo Emperor corresponded to an Immortal Emperor.

An Immortal Emperor ruled an Immortal Domain, with fifty Middle Chiliocosms under his command, and fifty million Lesser Chiliocosms.

Fifty million Lesser Chiliocosms similar to Chaos Continent and Earth.

At least hundreds of billions, or hundreds of trillions of people.

The power and influence were terrifying, as one could imagine!

“Damn it, it’s about the same, but I’m not afraid either. As long as I refine this Tian Mo Tomb, my strength will truly increase greatly. Even a Profound Immortal might not dare to oppose me!”

Guo Feng was also ecstatic. Although it was shocking and dangerous, once successful, the benefits would be endless!

He didn't bother to think too much, deciding to just charge ahead. With that, he flew directly towards the nearest Tian Mo Tomb.

Boom—

He had only flown a few dozen kilometers when he suddenly felt an incredible force pressing down, solidifying the space around him as if he were in concrete, and his speed plummeted.

This was pure spiritual pressure.

“These Tian Mo Emperors have been dead for who knows how many years, and their bodies might not even exist, yet they can still emit such terrifying spiritual power that I can’t even get close to their tombs? This is simply too bullying!”

Guo Feng looked helpless. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to fly towards the tomb, but it became increasingly difficult. For every kilometer he approached, his magical power consumption increased by several tenths.

Later on, he was almost constantly consuming restoration fruit, and even then, he only managed to get within five or six kilometers of the tomb, unable to advance further.

It was as if a child was charging forward with all his might, but an adult held his head down, so his legs were running, but he couldn't move at all.

“Is this the limit of my spirit? My current Immortal Sense is equivalent to True Immortal Ninth Grade, yet I’m still five or six kilometers away from getting close.”

“I’ve already seen the demonic rune on that tomb. I just need to refine this demonic rune, but how can I do it if my Immortal Sense can’t even extend over there?”

Guo Feng frowned tightly, cold sweat breaking out. At this moment, he was consuming restoration fruit every second.

Of course, his restoration fruit was basically free now.

However, the wormhole outside was continuously condensing, and he didn't know how long it would take for the wormhole to condense.

But once it condensed, if any Fourth or Fifth Grade Demon King, equivalent to a Grand Unity Golden Immortal or Golden Immortal level demon, came over, this world would be finished!

He then narrowed his eyes, “Use the system to enhance Immortal Sense.”

He immediately began to use the system to enhance his Immortal Sense without hesitation!

True Immortal Tenth Grade!

Heavenly Immortal First Grade!

Heavenly Immortal Second Grade!

Heavenly Immortal Third Grade!

…

Heavenly Immortal Tenth Grade!

Profound Immortal First Grade!

Profound Immortal Second Grade!

…

Profound Immortal Ninth Grade!

He frantically enhanced his Immortal Sense, spending a full five billion spirit stones to raise his Immortal Sense to the strength of Profound Immortal Ninth Grade.

His mind vibrated violently, his spirit continuously improved, and his perception of this world became increasingly strong.

And the tomb’s influence on him also decreased significantly.

“Reached the limit?”

Guo Feng’s brain seemed to have been expanded by some method, and his sea of consciousness became several times larger.

His mental power increased by hundreds of times!

The speed at which he now unleashed divine abilities was also several times faster than before.

And he had originally intended to continue improving, but found that the plus sign after Immortal Sense had disappeared.

This meant that he had reached his limit.

He could no longer improve.

However, he was not annoyed; instead, he smiled, “Now that my Immortal Sense has been strengthened, my combat power has also increased by an unknown number of times. I could kill that Heavenly Immortal ten times in a single breath.”

He looked at the tomb again, “Moreover, as my Immortal Sense strengthens, my refining ability also increases, so I should be able to get closer to you now, right?”

Thinking of this, he continued to fly towards the tomb.

As expected, what was previously a distance of five or six kilometers now allowed him to fly to about one kilometer before stopping.

His body could no longer get closer, and he even needed to use restoration fruit constantly to restore his magical power.

However, his Immortal Sense could get closer.

As soon as he got close, he immediately began to refine.

His current Immortal Sense was at the Profound Immortal Ninth Grade level, and his refining speed was also dozens of times faster than before.

It used to take one or two days.

Now it wouldn't even take an hour.

Rumble—

Before long, the demonic rune of the first tomb was refined by him. He felt a trace of intimacy between the tomb and him.

It seemed that he could use some of the formations within it, and even some of the demonic energy.

However, he tried it, but he still couldn't get closer!

“Forget it, I’ll explore the mysteries of these tombs later. If I could refine the corpses of these Tian Mo Emperors into external avatars, and they were seventy-two Immortal King-level external avatars, even an Immortal Emperor would have to give me some deference, right? This Tian Mo Tomb is simply the treasure among treasures!”

Guo Feng wasn’t too regretful. After all, once refined, the Tian Mo Tomb would be his.

There would be plenty of time in the future.

He also didn't hesitate and flew directly to the next tomb.

This time, there were no obstacles. These Tian Mo Emperors were all similar; a Profound Immortal Ninth Grade Immortal Sense was almost enough to refine the demonic runes here.

However, he didn't know that this was entirely a coincidence, because the Tian Mo Tomb was evolving into a so-called middle grade immortal artifact and had endured the tribulation of heavenly lightning. The Tian Mo Tomb had used a lot of its power to resist the heavenly lightning.

Otherwise, let alone Profound Immortal Ninth Grade, even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal or Saint Immortal Ninth Grade Immortal Sense might not be able to get close.

Three days later…

December 25th!

“Seventy-two tombs, all refined. The Tian Mo Tomb, it’s mine now!”

Guo Feng refined these tombs one by one, and immediately, all the information of the entire Tian Mo Tomb surged into his mind.

The Tian Mo Tomb no longer rejected him.

The terrifying grand formation outside the tomb no longer attacked him.

The billions of Tian Mo inside all recognized him as their master.

Rumble, rumble—

However, at this moment, the demonic energy within the entire Tian Mo Tomb suddenly surged outwards.

Billions of Tian Mo rushed out, forming thousands of demonic formations to resist the last bolt of heavenly lightning!

The Tian Mo Tomb was about to evolve into a middle grade immortal artifact!
