Chapter 170: Entering the Divine Martial Temple, Golden Statue Purification
Jiang Chengyun's reaction made Jiang Qiulan instantly realize the ambiguity in her words. She slightly pursed her lips, about to explain further.
Shen Yi placed the Ink Saber on the table, "Was this a possession of your late friend?"
Recalling how You Jun Shi had also stared at this saber for a long time, and the woman's casual glance at his waist when they met in the dilapidated temple, Shen Yi was always vigilant. These things couldn't escape his notice, but he had been too lazy to pay attention before. Now that the woman had brought it up, he wasn't one to hold back.
"..."
Jiang Qiulan was slightly startled, then nodded lightly, "Mm."
She realized why she had considered Shen Yi an old friend, besides the Ink Saber, there was another important reason—the youth could easily understand her intentions.
Even with such ambiguous words, Shen Yi could see through what she truly meant.
"Since it's not urgent, I'll give it to you after I get a new one."
Shen Yi hung the Black Saber back on his waist. Even with a new artifact, it might not be immediately handy. Since the woman just wanted it as a memento, she probably wouldn't mind waiting a while.
"Thank you." Jiang Qiulan seemed to like this concise way of communication. Without needing explanations or emotional displays, she was truly unskilled at interacting with others.
Jiang Chengyun's current feeling wasn't much better than when he had heard the heavenly scriptures earlier.
No, how did she know it was a possession of a late friend? Did she make it clear in just a few sentences?
Didn't she consider whether he could understand?
They were supposed to be the young commanders of Qingzhou, but he felt completely out of place.
"Arrange the Divine Martial Temple purification as soon as possible. Don't worry about anything else." Jiang Qiulan took a step towards the door.
As she entered the adjacent room, Shen Yi turned to Jiang Chengyun, "What is the Divine Martial Temple purification?"
The honest-faced middle-aged man finally regained some confidence, not bothering to wonder why the other party suddenly asked this question, "The so-called Divine Martial Temple purification is the golden statues left behind by those Divine Transformation Realm cultivators after their shadow souls perished. You can think of it as... swallowing a part of their golden statues as treasure medicine and making it your own."
"Of course, it's just a minuscule part, and it will only pass through your body for about ten breaths. A talented warrior can retain about sixty percent, while an average person like me can keep around four to five percent."
Jiang Chengyun recalled the scene of his core formation, "I used two purification opportunities to condense the embryo core, and later went through six more. Now, I'm just one step away from the perfection of core formation. But since we use different core formation techniques, it's just for your reference."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi felt a sense of relief.
It was fortunate that Jiang Qiulan had interrupted him earlier; otherwise, he would have been using his demonic lifespan to forcefully advance his cultivation.
In the past, to gather the heavenly energy needed for the perfection of the Jade Dew Realm, he had not only consumed numerous beast cores but also spent nearly six hundred years.
The heavens were too stingy; cultivation required plunder.
This Divine Martial Temple purification was merely a change of target, from demons and heavenly treasures to high-level cultivators who had already perished.
"By the way, Jiang Shijie just asked to arrange the Divine Martial Temple purification..."
Jiang Chengyun used his qi to clean up the ceramic shards on the ground. Glancing sideways, his eyes revealed unconcealed complex emotions, "So, you really understood everything?"
It wasn't intentional... Do I still need to familiarize myself with it?"
Shen Yi turned off the panel and shook his head, "I probably don't need to."
For a full 679 years, he had been cultivating the Two-Element True Intent, and now, he was already close to completion. Even if the Heaven Devouring Pill Devouring was difficult, it was still just a mid-grade Essence Condensation Technique.
He was already intimately familiar with the entire process; he only lacked the most basic accumulation of cultivation.
Shen Yi closed his eyes and sensed the vast knowledge that had appeared in his mind.
This technique, renowned as the Great Qian Dynasty's best mid-grade Essence Condensation Technique, even had the panel-certified "Precious" attribute. But compared to ordinary mid-grade Essence Condensation Techniques, it only had one advantage.
That was speed!
With the fastest speed, he could cultivate a greedy Sky Devouring Dao Infant, which, unlike other Essence Condensation Realm infants, didn't require meticulous care. It was completely non-discriminatory, accepting all without hesitation, unconcerned with the complexity of the energy or its suitability for cultivation.
Shen Yi finally understood why Jiang Qiulan recommended this martial arts technique to him.
Only the inner pill condensed by the Heaven Devouring Pill Devouring could accommodate the violent demonic energy! But such a greedy Dao Infant would inevitably be more violent and difficult to control.
That's why the Sun Melt Furnace was needed to suppress it, and then his divine consciousness would replace its consciousness, completing the pill-smashing process and achieving the Chaos Origin Supreme Master realm.
Now, he had a deeper understanding of the Essence Condensation Realm.
Shen Yi no longer had the thought of creating another golden statue to try.
Since his divine consciousness was given to the Dao Infant, it couldn't be given to the Shadow Soul as well. This wasn't about controlling two artifacts; it was about completely entrusting his divine consciousness to it.
How could a soul be split into two without going insane?
Shen Yi stood up and walked out of the house, looking at the towering Divine Martial Temple in front of him with a hint of disappointment.
Just then, his fingertip trembled, and he suddenly remembered something.
The panel opened before his eyes, and the previously overlooked words quickly appeared.
【Demonic Origin: Can reshape the demon soul, serve at your side, be enslaved forever, never escape, endure all kinds of suffering in the world, and protect the master's Supreme Law】
"Protect the master's Supreme Law."
Shen Yi silently recited in his heart, taking a deep breath. A bold idea emerged in his mind.
...
The next day.
Jiang Chengyun quickly communicated with the Demon Hunters' office.
Facing a Demon Suppressing Commander who had to undergo ten Divine Martial Temple Purifications, even their efficiency increased.
In front of the Martial Temple, four figures in green robes appeared quietly, all with aged faces, as if half of their bodies were already buried in the ground.
They slowly walked into the main hall.
Looking at the black armored youth who had already stood beneath the thirteen golden statues.
The men slightly waved their hands, and instantly, thick white mist emerged at the entrance of the Martial Temple, isolating the entire hall from the outside world.
"Sit cross-legged and calm your mind."
Shen Yi sat on the meditation cushion, his position slightly peculiar, right at the focal point of all the towering golden statue's gazes.
The Yaksha statue was hideous, the Simaha statue was lying down, and the beast-faced human statue held a golden cone in each hand...
However, compared to these twelve ferocious statues, the six-zhang golden statue in the middle, which looked more normal, caused Shen Yi's eyes to narrow subconsciously.
In the dead silence of the Martial Temple, the eyes of the Arhat golden statue suddenly twitched.
"..."
Shen Yi calmed his emotions, and he hadn't mistaken what he saw that day.
Among all these statues, only the Arhat golden statue was "alive"...
