Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 942: Chapter 170: Blood Demon Grand Array, Body Refinement Advancement! (Part 2)

So Zhou Xun spoke,

”Then I must thank Shopkeeper Ji!”

”It’s nothing. Besides, we also have a Tier Four Middle-Grade Spirit Medicine here, which Pavilion Master Zhou surely hasn’t acquired before,”

”It is the ’Ice Spirit Jade Ginseng,’” Shopkeeper Ji replied with a smile.

”Oh, I want this Spirit Medicine too. How much Spirit Stone in total?”

”These thirteen types of Demon King Essence Blood collectively cost three Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and the ’Ice Spirit Jade Ginseng’ is also three!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded. Although the Demon King Essence Blood was somewhat expensive, he considered that the other party had specifically acquired it for him, using many connections,

So when counted this way, the price seemed fair,

He then took out six Top-Grade Spirit Stones, handed them over to Shopkeeper Ji, and, after receiving the Essence Blood and Spirit Medicine, returned to Jiangling Prefecture.

...

Jiangling Prefecture Cave Mansion, Cultivation Room,

Zhou Xun sat cross-legged on the ground, in front of him densely packed Jade Bottles, a total of one hundred and eight, all containing the Heart Essence Blood of Tier Three Demon Kings,

Covering various life forms like flying birds, walking beasts, and aquatic species,

In addition, there was also a blood-red stone the size of an infant’s head, exactly the Blood Essence Stone, a precious stone that occasionally forms within the body of a Tier Four Demon Beast.

Along with dozens of rare Tier Four Materials,

He took out these treasures precisely for refining the ’Extremely Yin Blood Demon Array’!

Zhou Xun took a deep breath, raising his hands slowly,

A spine of a Tier Four Demon Beast flew out, suspending in mid-air,

Then a pale yellow flame rose, enveloping it, beginning to constantly refine and temper it. As time passed,

Impurities were gradually refined out, and after three Hours, it finally turned into a pool of pure liquid,

Zhou Xun changed the Spell, and the liquid started to stretch and deform,

Finally turning into the shape of an Array Flag,

In the following time, Zhou Xun repeated this method, refining a total of one hundred and eight Array Flags,

After finishing this, Zhou Xun turned his attention to the Jade Bottles,

Spiritual Power surged from his palm, unsealing the bottle stopper,

Muttering words as one hundred and eight drops of Heart Essence Blood floated out, merging and gathering in the air, forming a blood-red Spiritual Power vortex.

This vortex contained various Demon King auras, hot, cold, fierce, colliding and emitting deep roars.

Zhou Xun fixedly stared at the vortex, cautiously guiding the Essence Blood fusion until it stabilized into a blood-red sphere, then he took the Blood Essence Stone, gently placing it inside.

In an instant, the blood-red light enveloped the Cultivation Room, the sphere bursting out with a deafening roar, the rippling Spiritual Power hitting the four walls like turbulent waves.

Zhou Xun did not panic, swiftly adjusting the output of Spiritual Power, his hands rapidly moving, changing the Spell. The blood-red sphere stretched and extended, transforming into blood-red threads, weaving the outline of the Grand Array.

At this moment, he sequentially took out the refined Array Flags and threw them inside,

Putting his hands together, injecting all the Spiritual Power into it, after an unknown amount of time, all one hundred and eight Array Flags turned blood-red, emitting a formidable aura, making one’s heart palpitate.

Thus, the ’Extremely Yin Blood Demon Array’ was successfully refined.

”Next, I just need to find a suitable location to set up this Grand Array, and I will have my own Corpse Nurturing Land!”

Three days later, at a Yin Qi Land two thousand miles away from Lake Heart Island,

A figure descended from the sky, examining the valley,

”Sure enough, I guessed correctly,”

”With the gradual recovery of Spiritual Qi across the entire Eastern Wilderness, this Yin Qi Land is also constantly improving, now no worse than that particular place in the South Sea Cultivation Realm.”

Thus, Zhou Xun decided to set up the Extremely Yin Blood Demon Array in this place.

With a pat on his waist, a Spirit Light flew out, turning into a three-foot-sized Wooden Box,

A light toss, one hundred and eight Array Flags flew out, hovering in the air,

”Fall!”

With a soft shout, the one hundred and eight Array Flags shot out like meteors across the valley.

Wherever the Array Flags went, the ground quivered slightly, and blood-red Runes emerged from the ground, resonating with the Array Flags, emitting a bizarre and powerful aura.

Zhou Xun stood at the center of the valley, hands quickly forming the Spell, muttering words,

As the Spell was cast, the Yin Qi across the valley began to surge madly, as if stirred by an invisible hand.

The previously tranquil valley suddenly turned eerie and terrifying, with gusts of Yin Wind passing by, making sounds like ghostly cries and wolf howls.

Only to see that the one hundred and eight Array Flags were glowing brightly, the blood-red light crossing and weaving, forming a large blood-colored light shield the entire valley was enclosed within.

Inside the light shield, the Yin Qi was continually compressed and condensed, gradually forming streams of black Qi, roaming through the valley like dragons.

As time went by, the Yin Qi inside the valley was further refined, becoming denser and purer. Zhou Xun could clearly feel that the Yin Qi here had reached a terrifying level, enough to meet his need to cultivate Tier Four Blood Demons.

”It’s done!” Zhou Xun let out a long breath, a pleased smile appeared on his face.

After much effort, the ”Extremely Yin Blood Demon Array” was finally successfully set up.

Then, Zhou Xun took out the Blood Demon General refined from the Blood Demon Ancestor’s corpse, planting it at the location of the Eye of Yin Qi,

Waiting for the day when it would be nurtured to Great Success,

With this Grand Array now, there was no longer any worry about the host-devouring incident occurring.

...

Winter passed, spring came, another year went by,

In the Cultivation Room, Zhou Xun sat cross-legged,

Suspended in front of him was a two-inch-sized Purple Jade Square Platform.

It was his Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Thunder Pool.

A few days ago, Zhou Xun’s Thunder Forging Body Technique formally reached the peak of the Tenth Layer, so he decided to retreat to break through to the Eleventh Layer.

Zhou Xun slightly closed his eyes, his entire body emanating a faint purple hue.

Above it, the Thunder Pool’s light burst forth,

Bolts of Thunder Arc descended from the Thunder Pool, pouring into Zhou Xun’s body,

Constantly tempering his muscles, bones, and organs, bringing waves of piercing pain while also stimulating the deep potential of his body.

Zhou Xun’s expression was solemn, fully concentrating on feeling every change in his body, daring not to relax at all.

As time went by, the Thunder Power inside his body grew more and more intense, as if sensing Zhou Xun’s challenge, it fiercely surged through his body.

Those arcs of thunder pierced towards him like sharp swords, seemingly wanting to engulf him.

Simultaneously, Zhou Xun’s Body Refining Technique gradually operated to the extreme, his body turning into a massive ingot, constantly being hammered,

Each impact and refinement made his body stronger, bringing him closer to the Eleventh Layer in the Body Refining Technique.

Like a dam constantly storing water,

Thirteen days passed in the blink of an eye under the continuous tempering of thunder, Zhou Xun’s body had reached the edge of its limit.

The skin on the surface of his body had been scorched black by the Thunder Power, fine blood streaks covered it, blood continuously oozed out, only to be instantly evaporated by the thunder,

However, underneath this seemingly severe appearance, his bones grew tougher, glowing with a faint purple glow,

The organs also became more vigorous from the baptism of thunder, faintly exuding a warm luster.

At this moment,

Suddenly,

Zhou Xun’s body suddenly burst forth with an intense glow, within that glow contained terrifying Thunder Power.

Soon after, a powerful aura emanated from him,

The blood seeping from his body surface also scabbed over, flaking off piece by piece,

Zhou Xun slowly concluded his cultivation, the purple glow on his body gradually faded, revealing his original skin. White as jade, without a trace of blemish,

Only to see arcs of Thunder flickering across his body surface, quickly receding, becoming ordinary, as if all the experiences before were but a dream.

Zhou Xun slowly opened his eyes, a glimmer of delight flashing across his vision, feeling the surging and powerful strength within, as if it could shake mountains and rivers.

Just then, his Body Refining Technique successfully broke through to the Eleventh Layer, equivalent to the Middle-Stage Nascent Soul in Mana Cultivation.

Now, solely in terms of physical strength, he could already rival a Tier Four Middle-Grade Demon Beast,

Thus, he gained yet another means during the Nascent Soul Stage, more importantly, his defense capacity drastically increased.
