The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 1104: Chapter 1093: Sword of Enlightenment Refinement

Hallow Venerable’s cave remains.

A dazzling sword light broke through the sky from the northwest direction, and when the light receded, Shen Mo’s figure holding the Demon Slaying Sword appeared.

Clang!

Shen Mo used a trace of mana to resonate the sword, and terrifying sword intent reverberated along with the sound of sword clang.

Swarms of Evil Insects, regardless of their wisdom, instinctively sensed danger within tens of thousands of miles. Amidst a chorus of ”shsss,” they rushed away like a tide...

Three hundred years ago, after Jade Spring Fairy slew the Hallow Venerable, to prevent powerful Thousands Insects Evil Corpses from being born again in its lair, she expended mana to shatter the space barriers of the cave, causing the Hollow Venerable’s cave to bypass the mundane process, fully merging into the Universal Realm between heaven and earth;

Over the years, its cave remains evolved into a perilous area where Evil Insects breed and are extraordinarily unpredictable!

With a quick sweep of his five senses, Shen Mo discovered over a hundred Evil Insects above Class IV, and several complete Thousands Insects Evil Corpses formed from insects and pupae.

”In just three centuries, these Evil Insects have become a force here!”

Since he saw them, Shen Mo wouldn’t stand by idly, he unleashed a grand area of sword Qi, wiping out all Evil Insects and Thousands Insects Evil Corpses above Class IV within his sense range.

Afterward, he chose a Spirit Vein node where nature’s spiritual energy was the most concentrated and placed the Soul Refining Flag there.

In an instant, due to the mixture of massive amounts of Demonic Qi and Turbid Qi, a torrent of dark-spiritual Qi surged in, forming a visible tidal wave continuously flowing into the flag’s world!

Shen Mo was not at all surprised by this situation. The number and overall strength of Demon Soul Generals within the flag had reached an incredible degree...

There was only one Seventh Rank Demon Soul General, the one that cultivated the [No-self Demon Sutra], Banzhi Jiajun.

After Shen Mo reshaped its Soul Body with a Dao Mark, he found it permanently stayed at the early-stage of Class VII and could not continue to advance, but it can keep cultivating and expand its origin power.

As for Sixth Rank Demon Soul Generals, excluding Fearness Venerable who is serving as the foundation for Nanke Spirit Land, there were a total of forty-one.

Among them are Fairy Pei Yu, Ghost Bride, Master Hong Jue, Possession Ghost Yang Chengxiong (Horse Groom Lv), Gold Piercing Ghost, Serpent-Eel Heavenly Demon, Thousand-eyed Demon, Banzhi Jiaming, Fox Demon Pei Wanchen, Corpse King, and other longstanding Demon Soul Generals, as well as those newly promoted to the sixth rank over recent years, and two late-stage and peak sixth-rank Demon Soul Generals selected by Wang Hong.

Among the forty and some Sixth Rank Demon Soul Generals, excluding Shen Mo’s preferential blood food resource, their talent in life was also of top quality. However, estimating less than a handful could be promoted to the seventh rank.

As for Fearness Venerable, Shen Mo intended to wait until he achieved True Immortal status before teaching it the [No-self Demon Sutra], trying to nurture it into a Seventh Rank Demon Soul General.

This course of action has three benefits.

Firstly, Demon Soul Generals cultivating the [No-self Demon Sutra] are free from emotion or desire, able to completely eradicate Demonic thought monsters within Nanke Spirit Land.

Secondly, the enhancement of Shen Mo’s own realm along with Fearness Venerable can make Nanke Spirit Land increasingly profound, like Su Qingtao’s Dark Blue Zone, manifesting spiritual Qi, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Spirit Fruits, Elixirs that embody the true essence, allowing dreaming cultivators to train, battle, and grow within the dream world.

Thirdly, it could project Nanke Spirit Land’s coverage across Five Dragon Mountain, Corpse Mountain Range, and even the entire Phoenix Continent, enhancing the strength of the Red Flame Sect and affiliated territories, thereby rebuilding the cultivation order around the Red Flame Sect.

However, Shen Mo will face a hidden danger within his future Immortal Tribulation related to the Outer Space Tribulation caused in Dreamland and Dream True Master. Before he advances to True Immortal, he needs to carefully handle the dream world constructed by the [Great Dream Enlightenment Sutra], thus he won’t teach Fearness Venerable the [No-self Demon Sutra] nor strengthen Nanke Spirit Land yet.

Aside from Sixth and Seventh Rank Demon Soul Generals, there are over five million mutated Demon Soul Generals within ranks III through V, serving as the main pillars for constructing the God Slaying Array, which are the key targets for Shen Mo’s nurturing.

As for the weaker Class I and II minor Heavenly Demon Soul Generals, their number surpassed one hundred million, most of which were refined by Shen Mo in the western region’s demon disaster on Dongjie Continent.

Due to lacking Demon-corruption, they were transformed into mutated Demon Soul Generals, thus these over one hundred million low-class Demon Soul Generals had an invisible barrier in their Realm as the native Heavenly Demon, even if cultivated with [No-self Demon Sutra], can only reach Class II peak, except serving as numerous array bases in the God Slaying Array, they couldn’t be of too much use otherwise.

Only by demon-corrupting other creatures and seizing their everything, transforming into mutated Heavenly Demons, can break through this shackle!

Next step, Shen Mo plans to refine more demons and monsters into ordinary Soul Generals and let outstanding minor Heavenly Demon Soul Generals demon-corrupt them.

Such a vast number and powerful strength of Demon Soul Generals within the flag enabled Shen Mo to harness the astonishing power of the God Slaying Array... There is only one Seventh Rank Demon Soul General, unable to serve as an array core of nine, but using thirty-six Sixth Rank Demon Soul Generals as array cores and over one hundred million other Demon Soul Generals as array bases, the array’s power already far surpasses the one deployed by Hallow Venerable when attacking Jade Spring Fairy!

If nine Seventh Rank Demon Soul Generals could be cultivated, ignoring the potential for the Soul Refining Flag to gradually transform into the supreme treasure, after setting up the God Slaying Array, he could face and battle against Divine Immortals and Heavenly Immortals.
