Chapter 329: You Don't Need to Thank Me
Chapter 329: You Don't Need to Thank Me
Alone in the room, Shen Yi relished in the unprecedented tranquility, lazily lying on the bed.
He couldn't remember when he had last taken a rest.
Staring at the empty ceiling, he felt like he had returned to Baiyun County, exhausted after slaying the dog demon.
That was the night he had slept the deepest.
Since opening his eyes that day, Shen Yi had never stopped.
He carefully experienced this brand-new body.
After a brief rest, he sat up and summoned the White Feather Demon and Qinghua.
After several duels, Qinghua's alluring eyes now held a hint of solemnity, no longer a deliberate imitation. Her expression genuinely resembled Shen Yi's, with a touch of similarity.
"How do you feel?" Shen Yi looked at her.
"To serve my master, I would die a thousand deaths without hesitation."
Qinghua nodded respectfully, proving this with her actions.
No matter how powerful the enemy, she always fought with the most fearless stance.
"Can you continue?" Shen Yi raised an eyebrow.
"My master, please proceed as you wish. Qinghua will do her best to endure."
Lady Qinghua had harmonized with her Yin Spirit for a long time, and the effectiveness was far beyond what it had been before.
"I'll help you improve further when I have the chance."
Shen Yi once again condensed a Demon Origin and fed it to the White Feather Demon King.
"Qinghua thanks my master for his grace!"
Lady Qinghua expressed her gratitude with a kneeling bow, not the slightest bit envious of the White Feather Demon King.
Although the White Feather Demon King had the Demon Origin to enjoy, she was grateful for her master's promise.
"Thank you, my master."
The White Feather Demon King quickly digested the Demon Origin.
Her consciousness gradually became clearer.
"You don't need to thank me."
Shen Yi shook his head slightly and looked at the panel.
[Demon King (Injured): White Feather Demon King]
As expected, it wasn't enough.
Having already used two, Shen Yi didn't hesitate and condensed another Demon Origin, feeding it to the White Feather Demon King.
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 16,600 years]
The more complete the demon's soul, the more incense fire distractions it could withstand later.
With 20,000 years of demon lifespan invested, the effect was incredibly evident.
[Demon King: White Feather Demon King]
The white crane regained its previous majestic aura as a demon king.
Shen Yi and Qinghua exchanged a glance and directly stored both of them in the panel.
Manipulating the demon lifespan, he channeled it into the Golden Body Prison Law Body.
This was a precious Golden Body Technique he had created himself.
Shen Yi skillfully retrieved four golden ledgers, gathering nearly 80% of the incense fire votive power from all over Da Qian, forming an endless sea of clouds before his eyes.
[Year 1: You and Qinghua skillfully imprison the White Feather Demon King in the demon prison, beginning to digest the incense fire votive power, and also sealing the distractions within the White Feather Demon King's spirit.]
At the same time, the incense fire votive power started to rapidly repair the golden orb.
Shen Yi watched as the vast sea of clouds rushed towards him.
Feeling the warmth, his expression relaxed.
Indeed, this was a shortcut.
I
Only Yin Spirit cultivation was a pleasure.
[Year 3,300: Your coordination with Qinghua becomes increasingly seamless. Fortunately, the White Feather Demon King's spirit is incredibly stable, barely managing to handle it, saving you a lot of time.]
[Golden Body Prison Law Body Minor Accomplishment]
It had reached a height of three zhang now.
Observing the changes in the golden orb within his body, Shen Yi noticed its color transforming, gradually turning into a deeper dark gold.
Not only had its size changed, but its quality had also improved.
[Year 12,000: The White Feather Demon King has been completely occupied by distractions, but you still don't want to stop. Making full use of it, you continue to channel the distractions into it.]
[Golden Body Prison Law Body Major Accomplishment]
Shen Yi watched half of the sea of clouds disappear before his eyes, yet the deduction continued.
After sixteen thousand years, Shen Yi's demon lifespan had finally been exhausted.
Shen Yi stepped out and headed to an open area outside the Imperial City, where he summoned the golden orb.
The orb was woven with the same golden threads, but its aura was vastly different.
Three zhang... Six zhang...
Shen Yi looked up, his eyes filled with joy as he gazed upon the towering Golden Body Manifestation before him, now standing at an impressive height of six zhang and seven chi.
Even the golden dragon on its arm had grown larger, exuding an awe-inspiring and fierce aura.
The most significant change, however, was in the manifestation itself.
Its massive yet robust body now sported several semi-transparent dark golden feathered cloaks on its back, swaying gently, adding an indescribable touch of splendor.
If it had previously resembled an evil Arhat, it now looked more like a majestic righteous deity.
Through the feathered cloaks, one could even glimpse faint red patterns.
"This is probably even higher than the mid-stage of Divine Transformation, right?"
In just over thirty thousand years of demon lifespan, it had crossed the thresholds of three zhang and six zhang without any hindrance in between.
Compared to the Profound Origin Path, the cost-effectiveness was immeasurable.
Not to mention the need for repairs if it were to be shattered.
If a Divine Transformation Realm formed through Profound Origin were to be shattered, it would result in immediate Dao extinction and death, leaving no chance for recovery.
If there was any disadvantage, it was that for minor injuries, it couldn't rely on the aura of heaven and earth for recovery and could only depend on incense fire votive power. Once the votive power was insufficient, it would fall into a situation where the injury wasn't severe, but it would be consumed by stray thoughts.
Of course, the Temple of Martial Ancestor didn't fall into this category, and it was likely that he had encountered other means.
"My master's power is truly extraordinary, and Qinghua is indeed somewhat uncomfortable, but it won't affect normal combat."
Lady Qinghua responded in a timely manner.
"Alright, come back."
Shen Yi nodded slightly and returned the orb to his Qi Sea, while Qinghua stayed by his side.
The demon's lifespan was once again becoming scarce.
He turned his gaze towards a certain place, knowing it was time to start hunting.
While the Qingqiu incident hadn't yet spread to the Thousand Demons Cave, there was still much he could do.
It was time to seize the moment.
Qinghua cautiously pointed to the other side with her finger, reminding him, "Master, the Thousand Demons Cave is over there."
...
In Da Qian, at the Temple of Martial Arts.
Zhu Jue accompanied Xu Clan's Sixth Ancestor, intending to familiarize him with the layout of the Imperial City.
Most of the main cities in the Nine Provinces were built according to the Imperial City, differing only in size.
Both of them tacitly avoided mentioning the Xuan Guang Cave.
Until Shen Yi truly became a formidable presence capable of intimidating immortal sects, this matter would only bring unnecessary trouble.
"If you have any needs, just send someone to inform me directly."
Zhu Jue smiled, "The Martial Armory's collection isn't particularly abundant, but we don't lack common materials."
"I understand."
Xu Clan's Sixth Ancestor attentively observed his surroundings.
He was seriously considering the construction of various array formations.
If possible, he truly didn't want to return to that backwater place.
In the various courtyards of the Temple of Martial Arts.
Disciples from various places curiously looked at the old man.
Although they couldn't see Zhu Jue, it was evident that a Yin Spirit accompanied him, a privilege previously only enjoyed by Shen, the Temple Guardian.
In the quiet crowd, a bald man's eyes narrowed intently.
He stared fixedly at the unremarkable jade pendant hanging from the old man's waist.
Even Xu Clan's Sixth Ancestor sensed something and turned around in confusion, but the bald man quickly averted his gaze and quietly slipped away from the crowd.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Jue asked curiously.
"Nothing... Maybe it's because I haven't been out for a long time, and I'm not used to it."
Xu Clan's Sixth Ancestor awkwardly scratched his head; he didn't want outsiders to look down on him.
But after years of seclusion, it had indeed made him a bit eccentric.
He still had much to learn to embody the demeanor of a sage.
