Chapter 183: The Seventh Transformation of the Immortal Demon
Chapter 183: The Seventh Transformation of the Immortal Demon
The lifespan essence of the demon faded away like flowing water.
The demon core in Shen Yi's mouth quickly melted into a vast amount of demonic power.
The most formidable aspect of the Immortal Demon's Nine Transformations is that each enhancement pushes the upper limit of this realm.
During the sixth transformation, it took over five thousand years, and only one white deer demon core was needed to succeed.
In comparison, the cultivation contained within the Blue-Faced Lion's demon core was several times more robust than that of the white deer, and at this moment, according to the prompt in the panel, one was far from sufficient.
[After three thousand and two hundred years, you successfully tame the demonic power of the Blue-Faced Lion and skillfully swallow the second demon core...]
With the robust body cultivated after the sixth transformation as a foundation, the absorption efficiency increased severalfold again! Soon, the second lion demon core was also digested.
Shen Yi looked at the panel, which still hadn't shown a successful breakthrough, hesitated for a moment, and then took out the inner core of the White Jade Rabbit Demon and put it into his mouth.
Two against one, he should win, right?
He preferred the Blue-Faced Lion's ability to control yin wind over the Rabbit Demon's illusion techniques.
At this moment, a terrifying Immortal Demon, formed from the lifelong cultivation of three Demon Lords at the Nascent Soul realm, was gradually taking shape.
Three newly born demon consciousnesses were instinctively driven to fight to the death!
[Seven thousand nine hundred years have passed. A majestic giant lion raises its head, its blue-faced fangs striking fear into the hearts of others. Without uttering a sound, it merely swept its majestic gaze over the six Immortal Demons surrounding it, declaring ownership of this body.]
[Incarnation of a Celestial Lion, the Azure-Faced Fangs pierce through the underworld, the dark wind, and mortal rain ravaging the world. Understanding heaven's decree, comprehending the harmony of opposites, the devouring maw of heaven decides life and death, and the wind and rain destroy cities, leaving only wandering spirits.]
Shen Yi closed his eyes, feeling another formidable Immortal Demon within his body.
Sensing its domineering aura, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
Fortunately, he still had a decent amount of demon lifespan essence left.
Might as well continue to push for further progress.
[Eight hundred and twenty-nine years later, you erased the consciousness of the Celestial Lion with the intention of death, completely making this power your own.]
[Remaining Demon Lifespan Essence: Nine thousand one hundred and sixty-six years]
In an instant, all the demon cores he had painstakingly accumulated were used up, and half of his demon lifespan essence was spent.
In exchange, he gained an endless supply of power within his body, like a mighty river or vast ocean.
Shen Yi slightly clenched his palm, and indeed, the tangible changes brought about by the Body Tempering Art continued to give him a greater sense of security.
"I still need to hurry."
He picked up the corpses of the two giant lions and once again displayed the Carefree Wind-Riding Technique.
The reason why Shen Yi had rushed to Tingyang County was actually quite simple. At least for now, the demons were completely unaware of his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm.
This was an extremely precious opportunity.
If the news were to get out, the demons wouldn't sit idly by. They might not be able to plot his assassination, but they would likely gather together to prevent someone from sneaking up on them and plucking out their demon cores.
And the most likely direction they would seek refuge in was undoubtedly the howling moon demon king.
Therefore, it was crucial to take out as many demon lords as possible before this group of demons reacted.
...
In Yong'an City of Tingyang County, Lin Baiwei sat silently in a room behind the Demon Suppression Office, letting Aunt Xiao change her dressings.
"I really don't know what you're rushing for," Aunt Xiao sighed as she looked at the deep gash on Lin Baiwei's arm, which took up almost half of her flesh. "Your senior brother has finally rested for a day, and you didn't even bother to spend time with him."
In the courtyard, You Longtao held a tea bowl, his gaze fixed on the horizon.
It had been many years since he had enjoyed such tranquility.
Even if it was only temporary.
But whenever he thought of Brother Shen, currently in the demon-infested land, a sense of guilt arose within him.
"You're leaving again?"
Aunt Xiao looked at him helplessly. "I can't control her."
"Sitting idle makes me feel uneasy." You Longtao exhaled and did not mention Shen Yi. He knew how much pressure Lin Baiwei was under, and he had experienced countless times this feeling of being completely unable to help.
Just then, a dense aura of blood splattered in the courtyard.
The faces of the three people changed simultaneously.
The next moment, two huge Blue-Faced Lions fell from the sky!
But just as they were about to land, the young man grabbed them casually.
"...' You Longtao watched as Shen Yi threw the two Demon Lords at the entrance and then bowed slightly to him before stepping into the house.
"What's the matter?" Shen Yi sat down in front of the two women and poured himself a cup of tea.
Aunt Xiao opened her mouth, her expression dull as she looked at the demon corpses outside and then at the darkening night sky.
"I..."
Lin Baiwei stared blankly, her mind a mess.
So the reason he hadn't left any message before he left was that there was no need to.
Did he plan to return before nightfall? Within a day, three Dan-embracing Demon Lords had died in Tingyang County?!
"Brother Shen, what...?"
You Longtao squatted at the courtyard gate, dumbfounded, tugging at the lion's mane with his hand.
He couldn't understand it at all.
These two Demon Lords, who had confronted him for so many years, why would they appear before him in such a state?
"What should I do now?"
You Longtao thought for a long time, stood up, and looked at the young man in the house.
"...?"
Shen Yi realized that he was actually asking for his opinion.
A Great Demon Suppressor General was asking him what to do?
"Guard Tingyang County?" Shen Yi asked, a little uncertain.
You Longtao lowered his hands and shifted his gaze to the demon corpses on the ground, looking puzzled. "But, who am I guarding against?"
Hearing this, a hint of confusion also flashed across Shen Yi's eyes.
What kind of question was that?
Did he need to be taught how to slack off at work, too?
"Huh." You Longtao also realized his gaffe and smiled wryly, gently rubbing his temples.
The heavy burden he had carried for many years had suddenly been lifted, but instead of feeling relieved, he felt confused.
It had all happened too fast, not even giving him time to react.
"You two chat first, I'll go for a walk."
He strode out of the courtyard and into the quiet streets, his steps gradually becoming lighter and faster.
"Hmm?"
Shen Yi looked back at Lin Baiwei.
"I, I..."
Lin Baiwei bit her lip hard. In half a day, he had managed to kill two Dan-embracing Demon Lords. In comparison, she felt that there was nothing worth wasting his time on for an entire night.
She took out a delicate silver bell and placed it carefully on the table.
In fact, Lin Baiwei just wanted to say something very simple. She was trying her best to catch up with him, and she also wanted to share this joy with him.
Shen Yi looked at the silver bell on the table and pondered for a moment.
He took out a strand of the Blue-Faced Lion's essence blood and casually dropped it into her bell.
In the past, the life of an initial realm fox demon had exchanged for two jade liquid realm secret arts, which had accompanied him in killing the Flood Dragon Demon and the Soft-shelled Turtle Dragon, and he had used them all the way to the pill-condensing realm.
Now that he finally had some spare capacity, he could also return the favor.
