Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

It was a massive azure avian beast, several zhang in size, enveloped in a blue flame. Its eyes were extremely sharp, and its wings resembled those of a dragon, with azure dragon scales covering its sharp talons. A formidable aura emanated from it.

Its wings spread open, making its body appear several times larger, blotting out the sky and shrouding the sun.

With a gentle flap of its wings, a Cyan Flame Tornado formed around Song Jun, placing him at its center and blocking all five attackers’ strikes.

The powerful gale it generated sent the five flying.

”What kind of demon beast is this?!”

After stabilizing themselves, the five looked at the massive beast figure above Song Jun with astonishment in their eyes.

Meanwhile, the inner and outer sect disciples witnessing this scene were also in shock.

”What kind of demon beast is that?”

”How can Junior Brother Song summon a demon beast?”

”So powerful.”

This technique was evidently beyond the comprehension of many disciples.

”Dragon-Devouring Sparrow!”

On Merak Peak, Zuoqiu Yiren and Zhao Fujin spoke in unison.

”Dragon-Devouring Sparrow?!”

Upon hearing them, Zhao Qianyi and Jiang Ruoqing looked puzzled.

”Could it be the legendary demon beast that feeds on dragons, the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow?” Nangong Xue was utterly shocked, obviously having heard of the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow before, and immediately added, ”But wasn’t the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow extinct? It’s recorded in ancient texts that the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow race was annihilated by the combined forces of the Dragon and Phoenix Races.”

”The Dragon-Devouring Sparrow not only feeds on dragons but primarily preys on Great Demons, with the Dragon and Phoenix Races being its main targets, which led to the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow race’s downfall as the Dragon and Phoenix Races united several demon beast races to eradicate them, leading to their extinction.” Zhao Fujin rubbed his fair chin in slight bewilderment:

”Rumor has it that when the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow spreads its wings, its body spans nearly a thousand zhang, even in its youth, it should be hundreds of zhang in size. But this Dragon-Devouring Sparrow is only about ten zhang, it doesn’t match at all.”

”No, this isn’t a true Dragon-Devouring Sparrow, just the spirit of one, refined through a secret technique, allowing it to be summoned for battle, and this Dragon-Devouring Sparrow can exhibit a portion of its pre-death power.” After closely examining the massive demon beast above Song Jun, Zuoqiu Yiren said with some amazement: ”A lucky kid, I wonder where he got the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow Spirit, and even managed to refine and control it.”

”Spirit?”

Zhao Fujin and Nangong Xue exchanged a glance, their faces full of surprise.

What is a spirit?

It’s a special method used to refine a demon beast, erasing its beastly nature and ferocity, turning it into a pure and obedient energy entity.

This energy entity can be controlled through special secret techniques, and can be summoned to aid in battle.

However, such methods are extremely cruel.

Firstly, only a living demon beast can be refined into a spirit.

Secondly, the demon beast’s realm must be in the Divinity Transformation Realm or above.

This means you must throw a living demon beast of the Divinity Transformation Realm or higher into a massive furnace to refine it into a spirit alive.

Yet once refined into a spirit and controlled, the benefits are enormous.

It can obey your commands completely, and since the spirit is a living entity, it can co-exist with the refining host, enhancing in power as the host’s strength increases.

But only the Elders of the Beast-Control Sect can perform such spirit-refining control methods.

Moreover, such methods must be executed by an Elder of the Beast-Control Sect.

If not for the Beast-Control Sect standing on the Human Race’s side, due to these methods and their aim to control demon beasts, it would have been labeled as heretic long ago.

But how could Song Jun, a Golden Core Realm disciple of the Shenxiao Sect, possess such methods?

Those who recognized the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow above Song Jun as a spirit were filled with intense confusion.

Undoubtedly, the five disciples who chased after him were defeated by Song Jun shortly after, and their points naturally became Song Jun’s possessions.

The five were so frightened they fled desperately.

”4,650 points.”

Song Jun glanced at the points on his chest, a look of excitement on his face.

”Don’t celebrate just yet, there’s more coming.”

Senior Qiao’s voice echoed in Song Jun’s consciousness.

”Senior Qiao, with your strength, isn’t anyone who comes within the Profound Spirit Mirror bound to be defeated by you?”

Song Jun’s words once again showed respect, never imagining that Senior Qiao, even as a residual spirit, was still so strong, seemingly indicating the previous mention of caution towards the Ice Spirit was just a humble statement.

”I use your body to summon the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow, and though it doesn’t deplete my soul power, it cannot be sustained for long, and prolonged exposure will damage your foundation.” Senior Qiao reminded him.

Realizing the damage to his foundation, Song Jun became serious: ”Please, Senior Qiao, resolve this quickly.”

Senior Qiao nodded.

Soon, Song Jun realized who was coming.

”Chen Mo, it’s you!” Though his body was currently controlled by Senior Qiao, Song Jun could still use Transmission through his divine sense.

”I’ve been waiting to settle scores with you, and now you’ve come to me yourself. This time, we’ll settle all the scores, old and new.” Song Jun was still exhilarated from defeating the five Golden Core Realm Perfection disciples and didn’t give much regard to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo looked at the massive demon beast above Song Jun, sensing an aura from Song Jun that did not belong to him, his expression turned somber.

Upon exiting seclusion, when Nangong Yue told Chen Mo that Song Jun had become an Inner Sect disciple, Chen Mo had felt something was wrong.

Now it seemed there really was something amiss.

But since he had come knocking, regardless of any hidden agenda, he had to deal with him.

”Alright, I also want to settle old scores with you.”

Chen Mo brandished the Nine Thunder Profound Celestial Spear, as True Qi surged, a menacing Blue Dragon coiled around the spear shaft.

”Top Grade Magical Artifact.”

A trace of greed arose in Song Jun’s heart, and he sent a transmission: ”Senior Qiao, I’m counting on you.”

Senior Qiao furrowed his brows slightly and murmured an assent.

Roar!

The Dragon-Devouring Sparrow above flexed its wings, soaring into the sky with a wild roar. Its wings covered in azure flames seemed to reveal lines of light patterns.

An incredibly terrifying fluctuation erupted from within the Dragon-Devouring Sparrow, causing the True Qi in the surroundings to surge toward it madly, finally coalescing into a flaming tornado dozens of zhang high ahead of it, then sweeping out, drawing countless leaves, fiercely engulfing Chen Mo.

”Dragon Arrogant Nine Heavens!”

This was the last move of the Profound Celestial Dragon Art.

It was completed by Chen Mo during his years of seclusion cultivation.

The Nine Thunder Profound Celestial Spear in his hand seemed to merge with the Blue Dragon coiled around the spear shaft as if they were one.

The True Qi of heaven and earth surged into the spear, and the spear seemed to come alive, transforming into a true dragon charging toward the flaming tornado.
