Chapter 340: The Essence Transformation Pill Formula
Chapter 340: The Essence Transformation Pill Formula
"Disciple Yan Yun, following the decree of the Nanyang Sect, requests the extermination of the demons."
The young man in the green robe took out a scroll of golden pages from his sleeve and carefully unfurled it, revealing a list of crimes.
With a wave of his hand, he sent the golden pages to the edge of the abyss.
The demon, whose size was unknown, stared at the golden pages with its two eyes, its already minuscule pupils shrinking to the point of near invisibility.
Immediately, a mournful wail echoed from the depths of the abyss.
"..."
Yan Yun Zhenren seemed to be merely going through the motions.
After silently counting ten breaths, he said, "The demon confesses."
He spread his palm and pinched a spell, "Celestial Thunder, heed my command and exterminate this brute."
In the span of a breath, countless sword shadows appeared in the sky, each one resembling a steep mountain. The sword blades stood upright, connected by chains, with a throne at the center, where a purple sword, the sharpest of them all, was embedded.
It was like a massive palace filled with swords.
The young man pointed with his sword and casually pressed down, "Sever."
As his words fell, he turned around without hesitation.
Countless sword shadows descended, filling the abyss.
Two bright moons instantly dimmed and then fell towards the bottom of the abyss.
A strand of essence blood floated out, landing on the suspended golden pages, leaving a red mark.
Yan Yun Zhenren raised his hand, and the golden pages rolled up and slipped into his sleeve.
The next moment, the clouds in the sky stirred and closed in, blocking Shen Yi's vision and restoring calm.
"..."
Shen Yi closed his eyes and when he opened them again, he saw Ma Guangshan shivering.
He lowered his gaze to the scroll in his hand.
A complex expression gradually appeared in his eyes.
If the person in the painting was a "True Man," then what were the ones he had killed? No wonder Ma Guangshan referred to it as a legendary tale.
If this was a real event, it would be an indescribable blow to a cultivator like him.
"Have you heard of the Nanyang Sect?" Shen Yi asked, looking at the man with the black mole.
"Senior Shen... You don't really believe it, do you?"
Ma Guangshan chuckled awkwardly, "Let me tell you, this isn't exactly a secret. There used to be a Nanyang Sect, but it's said that just three months after they adopted this name, they were besieged by the Thousand Demons Cave. Only a few survived, and they renamed themselves Wutong Mountain to continue their existence."
"It's rumored that from then on, Wutong Mountain stopped recruiting disciples widely and only accepted the most exceptional talents. The number of disciples under their sect has always been controlled to around twelve."
"This incident caused such a huge uproar that even though Wutong Mountain has now become a transcendent giant, the story still persists to this day."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi lowered his head and continued to flip through the storage artifact.
Aside from a pile of scrolls, there were only two torn pieces of paper, seemingly left inside the scrolls by mistake.
"Essence Transformation Pill."
"It can be taken by disciples in the Refining Essence to Qi stage, who are over a hundred years old but have yet to condense their Spirit Roots. It aids in Spirit Root cultivation. For those over five hundred years old, the pill is useless, and they must seek external objects to replace their Spirit Roots."
"Strictly forbid those under a hundred years old from taking the pill. Premature cultivation is detrimental to the Great Dao."
After reading the pill formula, Shen Yi carefully folded it up.
His mind was a bit hazy.
Throughout his cultivation journey, from the initial stage to the Hunyuan Realm, it was all referred to as Refining Essence to Qi on this torn piece of paper.
"My lord, Qinghua has also seen this type of scroll for the first time. It's impossible for it to be forged by another power."
Qinghua Consort's voice echoed in Shen Yi's mind.
She had once been a member of the Thousand Demons Cave, and although she mostly stayed outside, something this outrageous would have been heard of if there were many of them.
"I understand."
Shen Yi withdrew his gaze and turned to the second torn piece of paper.
This time, the panel responded.
【Nanyang Shape Transformation Technique: Not Yet Proficient】
It seemed to be just a small technique, and it was thrown into the pile of scrolls together with the Divine Transformation Pill formula.
"Alright, you can go now," Shen Yi said, looking at Ma Guangshan.
"Senior Shen, if you need anything else, please call me again."
The man with the mole heaved a sigh of relief. This trip to the Thousand Demons Cave had almost scared him to death.
Especially after learning that he had almost died at the hands of Xuan Guang Cave.
Once he returned, he would definitely fast and purify himself for a few more days.
After bidding farewell to Shen Yi, he sprinted away without looking back.
"Come out."
Shen Yi waved his hand and summoned the Azure Deer Ancestor. While the latter was still in a daze, Shen Yi handed over the formula for the Divine Transformation Pill.
Each profession had its own expertise.
If he could really refine the Divine Transformation Pill, then sacrificing a million years of his demon life wouldn't be a loss.
Although the formula mentioned the requirement for longevity.
But Shen Yi only knew that this pill was related to the spirit root, and he still had a True Yang Qilin Stone and a Suimu in his body, which were not considered top-grade. He hoped to use this pill to further enhance himself.
As for the saying, "The pill is also useless," that was probably because the quantity wasn't large enough.
Even if it was truly useless, using it to enhance the cultivation of Great Qian's cultivators would still be a great thing.
As he watched the Azure Deer Ancestor's eyes gradually clear up, he began to study the pill formula in his hand.
Shen Yi let out a slight sigh.
No wonder Great Qian was becoming more and more desolate. Even if Xuan Guang Cave didn't bully it, as a sect that mainly cultivated Yin Spirits, the more they explored the Thousand Demons Cave and the higher the progress of the immortal mansions, the more they would inevitably be left behind by the two immortal sects.
Every time they discovered something in the immortal mansions, it felt like a dimensional strike.
He dared not imagine how many treasures Xuan Guang Cave and Wutong Mountain had looted over the years.
"No wonder these demons have been guarding this place."
If they really let the cultivators explore freely, it wouldn't take many years for all of them to lose their heads.
After an unknown amount of time had passed.
The Azure Deer Ancestor finally raised his head in a daze, "Reporting to my master, the medicinal ingredients recorded in this pill formula, after I've searched through numerous ancient books, I can recognize some of them, but they are almost impossible to grow in a place devoid of spiritual energy."
"Perhaps we'll have to make another trip to the Thousand Demons Cave."
"However, places with abundant spiritual energy are also favored by demons, and most of them have been chosen as immortal mansions. It's not easy to boldly enter and search for the herbs..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi fell into deep thought for a moment.
His gaze fell on the Shape Transformation Technique in his hand.
It was clear that if his guess was correct, just as Senior Apprentice Brother Zhu Jue had said, this world was a vast immortal sect.
The ones with the most information would definitely be those top-tier sects outside of Great Qian.
He had always been frustrated by his inability to join Xuan Guang Cave and Wutong Mountain.
But he had somehow overlooked another power...
The immortal sects wouldn't accept him.
Why couldn't Shen Yi become the Demon Sovereign of the Thousand Demons Cave? In the next moment, he decisively spent a million years of his demon life, refining a Demon Origin.
【Remaining Demon Life: 32,000 Years】
He then scanned the two demon souls.
Currently, the demons he had slain in the Thousand Demons Cave included the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign, the Green Plume Demon Sovereign, and the Crimson Heart Serpent Sovereign.
Actually, the realm was secondary.
After all, the higher the cultivation of the demons, the more demon origins were needed to nurture them.
The Crimson Heart Serpent Sovereign and the Green Plume Demon Sovereign were both mid-stage Core Formation demons, so their reputations were definitely greater, and many people had witnessed their deaths.
Only the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign from the 40th cave.
Its death was quiet, and its cultivation was not very high, making it easier to imitate and less likely to be discovered.
