Chapter 275: Harvest from the Daoist Mansion
Chapter 275: Harvest from the Daoist Mansion
Even with Shen Yi's unwavering focus, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
This time, he had truly struck it rich.
Three Upper Realm Demon Kings, one Supreme Demon King, and a Demon Emperor on top of that.
Additionally, there was a large portion of the Nine Swords Cataclysmic Array, a Thorn Bracelet Magical Treasure, and several Storage Artifacts that hadn't been fully inspected yet.
Among the techniques, there was also the Flame Scorching Heart Palm.
Compared to these treasures, the Spirit Root, the Dragon Flame Spirit Herb, which he had been most eager for, seemed somewhat inferior.
This didn't even include the Storage Artifact that belonged to Zhang Mingyang and was taken away by the Golden Dragon.
The main reason was that if the Golden Dragon had directly sent out the Storage Artifact as well, it would have been too obvious.
Before truly stepping into the Divine Transformation Realm, Shen Yi didn't plan to reveal his connection with the Divine Body Incarnation.
The reason was simple.
The Divine Body Incarnation often dealt with dirty work, which would inevitably offend many powerful beings. If they couldn't vent their anger on the Divine Body Incarnation, they would undoubtedly turn their attention to him... If a Demon Emperor specifically targeted him, that wouldn't be good news.
Just like how the White Feather Demon Emperor had nearly annihilated Zhang Mingyang despite bearing the brunt of the Divine Body Incarnation's attack.
Shen Yi didn't think he was stronger than that Zhenjian True Person.
Thinking of this, he calmed his mind and quietly opened the panel.
[Killed Golden Mane Boar Demon King of the Primordial Realm, total lifespan of 18,900 years, remaining lifespan of 8,800 years, absorption complete.]
[Killed White Feather Crane Demon of the Spirit Transformation Realm, total lifespan of 67,000 years, remaining lifespan of 29,000 years, absorption complete.]
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 52,300 years]
Just five demons provided more than half of the total lifespan of all the demons in Songzhou.
There were countless such powerful beings within the Thousand Demon Cavern.
Shen Yi's eyes glowed with anticipation, but he soon calmed down again.
The harvest was abundant, but the cost was not insignificant...
Qing Hua's performance was flawless, but it was evident that the strength gap between the Divine Body Incarnation and the Demon Emperor had resulted in injuries.
A large amount of Incense Fire Wish Power was needed for repairs.
This was akin to gambling with the foundation of Da Qian.
It was a race between the depletion of Incense Fire Wish Power and his breakthrough to the Divine Transformation Realm.
Hence, Shen Yi had to be increasingly cautious.
Each action must ensure a sufficient harvest.
With this in mind, he looked to the side.
To ensure his safety, Chen Zhong summoned his Dao Embryo and patrolled in all directions, guaranteeing the timely detection of any anomalies.
A Qing, on the other hand, cautiously wandered near the bamboo forest, flipping through his thick book and carefully sketching in his small notebook.
Seeing that he was alone, Shen Yi retracted his gaze and took out the demons' remains one by one.
He slightly opened his mouth, and the Blood Transformation Divine Ability unfolded.
The three Upper Realm Demon Kings provided a total of 307 drops of Demon Blood, while the Supreme Boar Demon King provided 153 drops, slightly less than the previous Supreme White Dragon.
However, the Boar Demon was about eight thousand years younger than the White Dragon, achieving similar cultivation in half the time.
This was a testament to the extraordinary power of the Thousand Demon Cavern.
Shen Yi eagerly turned to the last White Crane, and his eyebrows gradually furrowed.
The Blood Transformation Divine Ability, which had never failed before, seemed to have lost its effect on this White Feather Demon Emperor... The innate talent of the Condensing Core Realm Small Demon King was gradually falling behind.
After a while, he managed to extract a drop of Demon Blood from it.
"Forget it, let's continue practicing."
Shen Yi shook his head and put it away in the Storage Artifact.
With many eyes around, his unique cultivation features were too conspicuous, and there was no need to reveal them in such a place.
The Demon Blood had already nourished the Peacock to its fourth metamorphosis, and it was not far from the eighth metamorphosis of the Small Demon King.
He closed his eyes and began to breathe and recuperate.
Casually taking the returned Golden Pearl, he placed it into his Qi Sea and, at the same time, accepted the exquisite Storage Artifact.
He kept Qing Hua by his side and then infused the Demon Lifespan into the Body Tempering Technique.
[First Year: The Peacock, having tasted the essence of Demon Blood, once again detected a familiar scent and greedily approached.]
The peacock had previously consumed one hundred and fifty-five drops of Demon Blood, and it was believed that it would soon be satiated.
Unexpectedly, within an instant, it surpassed the two hundred mark.
[2,720th Year: The peacock, having consumed a total of two hundred and two drops of Demon Blood, finally underwent its transformation. Its blood-red wings slowly unfurled, unleashing a dense and tangible aura of malice. Your innate abilities and divine powers have increased.]
The more it consumed, the stronger it became.
Shen Yi did not feel overly distressed; instead, he was more concerned about Zhang Mingyang's effortless breach of his physical body, which heightened his sense of urgency regarding the Body Tempering Technique.
Even if he couldn't defeat a true Divine Transformation Realm Cultivator, he needed to withstand their Spell Techniques.
Otherwise, he would be risking his life each time.
The newly acquired Demon Lifespan was rapidly depleting, and the Demon Blood was visibly diminishing before his eyes.
As Shen Yi felt his body becoming increasingly resilient, a sense of relief settled in his heart.
The golden eagle, with its minimal presence, had devoured a staggering two hundred and eighty drops of Demon Blood. Next, it was the white deer's turn.
Similar to the Immortal Demon's ninth transformation, the sixth transformation was a crucial juncture between the minor and major achievements of the technique, and the consumption was bound to be extraordinary.
However, when Shen Yi saw the prompt on the panel, he was still taken aback.
[24,300th Year: The white deer consumed the remaining hundred-plus drops of Demon Blood, but it was merely an appetizer, and it still eagerly awaited your reward.]
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 28,000 years]
Over four hundred drops of Demon Blood were devoured, but fortunately, there was still a Demon Emperor's corpse available.
Otherwise, Shen Yi wouldn't have been able to afford this group of Immortal Demons.
As the burning sensation on his body gradually subsided, he had no other techniques to cultivate for the time being.
He took out the Thorn Bracelet and familiarized himself with it before putting it on his wrist.
The slightly menacing bracelet seemed to come alive, and as soon as it touched Shen Yi's skin, it cleverly retracted its thorns and intertwined, resembling an ordinary black vine.
This item was capable of trapping even a Golden Dragon.
Before learning the Huashen Technique, it could serve as a temporary supplement to his control methods.
Shen Yi gently twisted his wrist.
Then, he took out the nine small swords he had been longing for, three of which were already broken.
These swords had almost killed the White Feather Demon Emperor in the vine prison, so their power was evident.
Unfortunately, the Demon Emperor, unaware of their value, had damaged a few of them.
Shen Yi fiddled with them, and as he watched the wound on his chest slowly heal, the bleeding stopped.
He stood up and walked towards A Qing.
If he remembered correctly, he had heard that this item was learned from the Xu Family.
"These small swords are also an array, can you understand them?" Shen Yi stood beside him.
"Uh..." A Qing quickly put away his paper and pen, turned to look at the items in Shen Yi's hand, and then fell silent for a moment.
"I..."
He raised his head, but Shen Yi's clear eyes held no distractions, only a hint of curiosity.
Under that gaze, A Qing slightly lowered his eyes and pursed his lips.
Perhaps Shen Yi didn't know that the Nine Swords Cataclysmic Array was once the most prized possession of A Qing's family.
He smiled and said, "I... I can understand a little."
