Chapter 83 Old Demon Zhang Shan, He's Been Set Up
Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.
On Xuanying Mountain.
Linli inside the cave was constantly absorbing the blood-fiend energy from the fiend pearl in front of him.
A total of twenty-seven first-tier superior Blood Fiend Spirit Pearls were taken from the Treasure Pavilion and used to cultivate the Self-Destruction Soul Shattering Secret Technique.
Ten days have passed, and I can say that I've barely gotten started.
After the streams of malevolent energy entered the body, they continuously seeped into the spiritual bones within the body, forming tiny malevolent beads at various nodes.
However, this secret technique is only at the very beginning, and the power of the evil pearl is not yet great.
Even so, it can still injure or even severely injure some cultivators in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.
This secret technique, accumulated over time, involves periodically plundering the power of blood and evil for cultivation. Only after several years of continuous practice would it be possible to harm a Core Formation stage cultivator.
"Um?"
"Another Qi Refining cultivator has advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage?"
At this moment, Lin Li, who was in seclusion cultivating, sensed the faint fluctuations of spiritual energy coming from the foot of the mountain.
Curiosity appeared in his eyes.
After all, the disciples of Fellow Daoist Guan and Fellow Daoist Gusong were also in seclusion in that rented cave, attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm, which was also related to Baiquan Lake Market.
The next moment, Lin Li finished his practice and flew out of the cave. He arrived at the ancient locust tree outside and looked down at the spiritual energy vortex rising again from the place where the rented cave was located.
Above the vortex, dark green and azure blue intertwined, suggesting a cultivator with both water and wood elements.
During this period of time.
Lin Li made a new discovery regarding the token given to him by the Crimson-Eyed Demon.
This token can draw upon the power of the array within Giant Shadow City; although it's only a small portion, it's enough.
If Lin Li is willing, he can use this token to see anywhere in the Giant Shadow City at the foot of the mountain.
It can be said that any human or spirit cultivator within this city has nowhere to hide.
Lin Li formed a hand seal and channeled spiritual energy into the token. In the blink of an eye, a blood-red light screen about ten feet wide appeared in front of him, displaying the scene inside the rented cave.
Among them was the female disciple in yellow robes brought by Guan Che.
There were many bottles and jars in front of him, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth. It was clear that his physical body had been shaken when he broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
But they should have managed to get through the crisis without any major incidents.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Guan has also obtained the Foundation Establishment spiritual items he needed at the Shadow Gate Market."
Lin Li understood.
Just at this time,
The divine sense token that Lin Li carried with him showed a slight reaction.
In the blink of an eye, the crimson light screen standing in front of them dissipated into the air.
Only two breaths had passed.
A gaunt, red-eyed old demon, draped in a dark red robe, appeared out of thin air a few steps away from Lin Li, emanating an extremely astonishing aura.
Just like before he left, he stood with his hands behind his back.
"This secret technique and this spiritual cultivation core are for you."
"One year from now, you must master this technique and seize the core to advance to the late Foundation Establishment stage."
"I will go into seclusion first."
"I will be released from quarantine in one year."
"Before you leave the pass, I want to see the results."
Chi Tong took out an ancient jade slip from his storage bag, along with a late-stage Foundation Establishment demon core that still emitted a trace of warmth. After handing it to Lin Li, he vanished from the spot.
The next moment, all the array light screens outside the cave were activated.
Layer upon layer of array light curtains firmly protected the entrance to the cave, totaling nearly twenty-seven layers.
With such an astonishingly powerful defensive formation, even if a Core Formation cultivator were to attack, it would be very difficult to break through this tortoise shell.
Lin Li took the jade slip and the inner core and brought them to his front.
Lin Li immediately extracted a wisp of spiritual energy from the inner core and refined it into his body.
[Inclusion successful]
[Second-tier superior bloodline, four-tailed moon fox!]
The next moment, a moon fox with four white fox tails appeared on the Reincarnation Disc, with a silver crescent mark between its eyebrows.
Under the oppressive aura of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, it flew down near the center of the Reincarnation Disc and landed among several second-tier superior bloodline projections.
As for the jade slip given by the Crimson-Eyed Demon, it contained a secret technique called "The Art of Stealing Elixir".
This technique can be used to seize the inner core of a demon race similar to one's own, thereby achieving several advancements in one's cultivation level.
However, this technique of stealing cores can only be used once in a lifetime, and it has extremely serious side effects. Even if one's cultivation level reaches the late stage of Foundation Establishment, one can only exert half of the combat power of the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
Furthermore, to maintain this level, one will need to replenish it with a large number of pills whenever one's level drops.
Lin Li frowned.
It seems that this Crimson-Eyed Demon didn't gain any advantage on this trip.
He seemed somewhat exasperated, as if he wanted to possess the body as soon as possible.
...
at the same time.
The Crimson-Eyed Demon, who was inside the cave in Xuan Ying Mountain, appeared out of thin air on the stone platform.
Its originally thin body rapidly shrank in the next moment, as if a layer of dry tree bark had been put on its frail skeleton.
An aura of death, impossible to conceal, already clung to his body.
Regret appeared in the eyes of the Crimson-Eyed Demon.
After going to provide support, that old devil Zhang found an opportunity and immediately slipped away and escaped.
It drew the enemy's fire.
For many years, no one had been able to outmaneuver him like this, and he was extremely angry.
In the end, he used his trump card, a mid-tier third-level talisman, to injure the black mudfish, and only then was he able to successfully break through the encirclement with his junior brother Zhou and the others from Thousand Shadows Tower.
The token of the Ancient City of the Underworld was also taken away by that old demon. He thought he could get a share of the spoils, but he didn't expect this situation.
After wandering around for a long time, they finally returned to the territory of Qianyinglou.
Using talismans places a tremendous burden on the body.
He's almost losing control of the death energy within him. That spirit fox must advance to the late Foundation Establishment stage in a year.
In the later stages of advancement, one's lifespan will increase by another hundred years or so.
"The token of the Ancient City of the Underworld!"
The Crimson-Eyed Demon was quite aggrieved, having watched helplessly as that old demon slipped away right under his nose; it was utterly despicable.
...
now.
The main peak of Qianyinglou.
"Junior Brother Zhou, how is that old guy?"
Sensing that Zhou Changwu's aura had weakened considerably, Di Wei rushed to Zhou Changwu's cave and asked with a hint of anxiety.
"The situation is not optimistic."
"That old guy also had a mid-tier third-level talisman, which was quite powerful. After injuring that old mudfish from Dongling Mountain, we were able to break through the encirclement together."
"The token of the Ancient City of the Underworld is not so easy to obtain."
"In my opinion, it's that old guy who's about to die, that's why he's so impatient."
Zhou Changwu said in an unfriendly tone, his eyes still filled with deep fear when he recalled being surrounded and killed by several angry peers.
He was originally one of the weaker ones in the early stage of Core Formation.
This injury was quite serious, and it's estimated that it will take several years to recover.
"That's great!"
"Besides the mascot we've cultivated, that old guy only has a spirit fox in the early Foundation Establishment stage as a candidate for a host body to seize."
"At over nine hundred years old, his time may be coming to an end."
Di Wei analyzed in his heart, a hint of joy in his eyes.
