444: Refining murderous intent, the first skill!

Suddenly, a Divine Thought attack shot out from the Sea of Consciousness, directly entering the killing intent’s mind, causing his self-detonation process to slightly lag.

It was this momentary delay that allowed the two great seals to completely envelop him.

The killing intent’s self-detonation failed!

"Whew... I finally subdued this guy, that was really difficult..."

The Demonic Thought fell directly from mid-air to the ground, bounced several times, then rolled to the side, belly up, with its limbs hanging limply.

Su Lin Yun also looked incredibly pale, clutching her chest, and directly collapsed to the ground.

That last strike was precisely a method Su Lin Yun had prepared in advance.

The first time she heard the killing intent say he was going to self-detonate, she took advantage of the battle to continuously separate her Divine Thought in secret and hide it within her Sea of Consciousness, precisely to slightly hinder him for a moment when he tried to self-detonate!

This approach was extremely dangerous; it could even be called a gamble with her life!

Because no one knew if that momentary interference would be enough for the two of them to subdue the killing intent, and if it failed, once the killing intent successfully self-detonated, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fortunately, she succeeded in her gamble.

"Little girl, you'll experience mental exhaustion within three minutes in your current state. Although your Cultivation Technique has taken some initial form, it likely won't yield many stone tablets."

Su Lin Yun forcefully propped herself up with her arms, weakly cupped her fists, and said,

"Senior, what should Lin Yun do? Please guide her."

The Demonic Thought rolled around on the ground, got up, and dusted itself off before saying,

"It's simple, just quickly replenish your mental energy. How about this, I'll make a deal with you?"

"What kind of deal? Senior, please speak freely. As long as Lin Yun can do it, she will not refuse!"

The Demonic Thought chuckled,

"I can provide you with the Origin Qi from outside to help you restore your mental strength, but as compensation, you'll let me refine this killing intent. How about this deal?"

"Senior, your kindness to Lin Yun is too profound, like a rebirth. Lin Yun has no claim on this killing intent at all; Senior may take it!"

"Good! Straightforward!"

The Demonic Thought finally smiled. If he hadn't been worried about making that young man unhappy, he would have taken it long ago. But thankfully, this little girl was quite obedient.

The Demonic Thought flew over to the killing intent with a chuckle, swallowed it whole, then rubbed its hands together slightly over its chest, forming a ball of light which it threw to Su Lin Yun:

"This is a ball of Origin Qi. Take it and quickly restore your mental strength, then continue comprehending your Cultivation Technique—that's the main priority. I'm leaving now; this battle was truly exhausting. I need to go recuperate quickly."

Su Lin Yun quickly caught the ball of light, respectfully cupped her fists, and said,

"Senior, Lin Yun has dragged you down. Please go and recover your cultivation."

The Demonic Thought didn't reply, disappearing with a whoosh into Su Lin Yun's Sea of Consciousness.

Su Lin Yun’s Sea of Consciousness finally quieted down. She quickly absorbed the Origin Qi from the light sphere. After this great battle, her mental strength had weakened to the extreme. At this moment, encountering this extremely pure Origin Qi,

her weakened mental strength was like parched land meeting sweet rain, absorbing it with immense greed.

Her mental strength quickly recovered.

After reaching a certain level, Su Lin Yun began to use only a small portion of her mental strength to absorb the Origin Qi, re-investing the majority of her mental strength into the creation of her Cultivation Technique!

The Demonic Thought also returned to its secret space, greedily refining the killing intent.

"Hahaha, this battle was not fought in vain! This killing intent is truly a great tonic! Not only have I replenished the cultivation consumed in the battle, but I've also recovered an additional twenty percent of my cultivation!"

"If this one thought is completely refined, it would be equivalent to the sum of all the Cultivators' blood essence currently in the Legacy trial! So satisfying, so incredibly satisfying!"

The Demonic Thought, in high spirits, continued to monitor Su Lin Yun's movements while refining.

Everything seemed to return to normal.

Within the vast Immortal Ruins, Cultivators were quietly and diligently creating Cultivation Techniques, making it very peaceful.

Just like that, three months quietly passed...

However, as time passed, every Cultivator's mental strength continuously weakened. They had no way to absorb the external Origin Qi, so their figures became increasingly faint.

Their tightly closed eyes also subtly showed signs of wanting to open, a phenomenon that occurs when their mental strength is about to give out.

Finally, the first Cultivator opened his eyes.

The first to awaken was a Cultivator at the Void Realm Great Perfection.

At this moment, his face was pale, his aura was unstable, and he was extremely frail.

But his eyes were filled with brilliance!

After more than three months of exhaustive creation, he had finally created a Cultivation Technique that he was incredibly satisfied with!

Just then, a massive stone tablet descended from the sky with a rumble, appearing directly before him.

This stone tablet had no markings whatsoever; it was a completely blank tablet, but the aura emanating from it was incredibly ancient and vast!

The Void Realm Cultivator quickly realized that this was to have him demonstrate the Cultivation Technique he had created upon the stone tablet.

Since that was the case, the Cultivator's gaze sharpened, and he let out a low roar!

"Hmph!"

Immediately, the Cultivator's entire body expanded several times in size. He raised his right fist, drew it back, and then simultaneously exerted force throughout his body. At that moment, raging flames ignited on his fist!

Even in the center of the flames, faint golden lightning bolts could be seen flashing.

"Fire Origin Thunder Fist!"

This Void Realm Cultivator had, astonishingly, created a fist technique, a fist technique that fused two Origins!

Among Void Realm Cultivators, this was already considered extremely good, as Cultivators of the Nascent Void Realm had not yet fully comprehended Origin!

"Boom!!!"

A powerful and heavy punch directly struck the blank tablet, producing an earth-shattering sound.

However, the blank tablet showed no reaction whatsoever to such an attack; not even the slightest tremor was felt!

A moment later, the blank tablet slowly dematerialized and finally disappeared.

Soon, around this Void Realm Cultivator, stone tablet phantoms began to continuously appear.

One... two!

Ten... twenty... thirty!

The stone tablets continuously emerged, and finally, thirty-nine dark golden stone tablet phantoms manifested around him!!!
