Chapter 352: Lucky You
Chapter 352: Lucky You
[In the 3700th year, the Bone-Sucking Bear King helped you verify the first attempt at incorporating the Departure Fire Tempering into a Divine Soul, ensuring its safety. You gestured for them to continue.]
Allowing the Demon's remnant to repeat endlessly until you completely mastered the technique.
Shen Yi didn't feel the slightest pity for the Demon's lifespan.
Currently, he had no means to protect his Divine Soul, so being cautious was always a good idea.
By the time the Bear King's remnant showed signs of dissipation, the Silverback Ape King, who had been waiting, took its place.
Shen Yi had many such remnants of Soul Transformation Demonic Beasts.
[In the 12,300th year, the Crimson Heart Serpent Sovereign encountered an accident during its fifth attempt at incorporating the Departure Fire. Its remnant was incinerated by the raging Departure Fire, but fortunately, the Azure Deer Ancestor witnessed the entire process and quickly identified the issue.]
"Tsk."
Glancing at the prompt on the panel, Shen Yi withdrew his gaze, feeling a lingering sense of unease.
Even if an outside cultivator were lucky enough to obtain the Heart Burning Chapter, they would have no idea how many elite cultivators' lives it would cost to complete that final step.
After more than ten thousand years of the Demon's lifespan, the Azure Deer Ancestor finally deduced the complete Heart Burning Chapter.
He then had other Demon Sovereign remnants verify the technique once more.
"..."
Shen Yi's expression gradually grew solemn, and the next moment, the golden glow in his eyes almost dissipated.
An overwhelming sensation of scorching pain assaulted his mind.
Beneath his robust physique, his fragile Divine Soul began to tremble uncontrollably.
Only when a colorless flame brand appeared on his Divine Soul did he finally heave a sigh of relief, only to discover that the second wave of excruciating pain followed swiftly.
The entire process lasted for ten thousand years on the panel.
When the last line of the prompt appeared, Shen Yi leaned back in his throne, his body twitching slightly, and his gaze became somewhat numb.
[In the 21,000th year, you successfully branded five Departure Fire brands on your Divine Soul and learned how to imprint them on others' souls using your bare palms.]
[Heart Burning Chapter (Rare): Perfected]
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 36,000 years]
At the Essence Transformation Early Stage, he had mastered two of the world's most exceptional rare techniques, and both were perfected.
He now had both internal and external offensive capabilities.
All that was left was to find a cultivation technique to improve his cultivation realm.
Shen Yi closed his eyes and feigned sleep, adjusting himself to his optimal state.
After five days, the ancient dragon couldn't wait to seek him out.
"How is the Lion Sovereign's recovery going?"
It was clear that he had been rebuffed by others, desperately trying to hide his impatience.
"..."
Shen Yi sensed the cultivator's aura hidden behind the Shadowtail Drakon.
Finally, he rose from his throne: "Let's go."
"Good! Good!"
The Shadowtail Demon Sovereign was overjoyed: "You're the one I can rely on, brother."
To deal with Yu Chaoyan, he alone was enough, but he needed another Demon Sovereign to help intercept.
"What's going on?"
Yu Chaoyan secretly followed behind, not daring to get too close, but still catching a glimpse of the lion's silhouette.
If he wasn't mistaken, that seemed to be the Golden-Eyed Lion?
This ancient dragon couldn't find anyone else to help, even the Demon Sovereign from the Forty-Fourth Cave was willing.
He shook his head, not bothering to think further.
This time, he specifically returned to borrow a proper grand formation from Senior Apprentice Brother Tong, setting it up on the path leading to Wutong Mountain.
His master had instructed him not to provoke the Thousand Demons Cave for the time being.
But the Shadowtail Demon Sovereign was looking for trouble.
Today was the day he would make a name for himself!
Yu Chaoyan rubbed the bruise on his face, watching as the two demons headed straight out of the Thousand Demons Cave. He hurriedly followed.
The Hunt for the Demon Sovereign of the Sixteenth Cavern
For any cultivator, this was a momentous task.
Even as a disciple of Wutong Mountain, Yu Chaoyan couldn't help but feel a sense of tension.
"Yes! This is the way!"
Yu Chaoyan's eyes narrowed slightly, his excitement causing his fingertips to tremble.
Compared to the last time when he merely toyed with this worm, this time, the opponent had actually left the Thousand Demons Cave on its own accord, accompanied by a small lion.
If the Shadowtail Demon Sovereign were to fall into the formation, Yu Chaoyan was confident he had a sixty percent chance of executing it.
Just then, Yu Chaoyan's pupils constricted.
He saw that just a few zhang away from the formation he had set up, the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign had stopped in its tracks.
"Lion Sovereign, what's wrong?"
The Shadowtail Demon Sovereign turned back in surprise.
"Damn!" Yu Chaoyan's heart sank, his pulse quickening.
However, what he didn't expect was that the lion merely grumbled, "How much longer are you going to drag me around aimlessly?"
"We've only just left."
The Shadowtail Demon Sovereign almost exploded with anger. Even though he knew that talented individuals couldn't help but have some temper, this smelly lion's attitude was simply too much.
But at this moment, he could only try to calm the lion, "We're not far from here, follow me quickly."
The Shadowtail Demon Sovereign put on a confident front and strode forward.
"Huff..."
Yu Chaoyan patted his chest, almost unable to catch his breath.
As he wondered why the Shadowtail Demon Sovereign was being so polite to the lion, his fingers deftly manipulated the spell formation, and he rose into the air, sneering, "Little Loach, who are you looking for?"
Vast spirit qi burst forth from his fingertips, as if drawing something.
In an instant, flames erupted from the ground, forming several majestic pillars of fire that connected to the sky before plummeting down, engulfing the Shadowtail Demon Sovereign.
"Roar!"
The Shadowtail Demon Sovereign instantly transformed into its massive true form, struggling to break free, but finding its limbs and head entangled by the pillars of fire.
It was both shocked and furious, "You're asking for death!"
Yu Chaoyan continued to sneer, frantically manipulating the formation.
He glanced at the distant lion, "Consider yourself lucky, now get lost!"
He needed to focus on dealing with this loach and had no time to spare for the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign.
"You're lucky, but I think your luck is about to run out!"
The Shadowtail Demon Sovereign struggled and laughed in response.
Clearly, Yu Chaoyan still regarded the lion as an Essence Transformation Early Stage being.
"Lion Sovereign, I didn't lie to you! It's right here! Let's slaughter this foolish cultivator together!"
Under their watchful eyes, the towering lion suddenly leaped, its formidable demonic energy erupting.
"..." Yu Chaoyan, who had just become wary, blinked, feeling that he hadn't made a mistake. It was still in the Essence Transformation Early Stage.
"..." The Shadowtail Demon Sovereign was also stunned for a moment.
What did this mean? Had he really misjudged? Could a being of this strength execute Zhang Xuanyan and dare to defy the Thunder Hoof Demon Sovereign?! But in the blink of an eye, the Shadowtail Demon Sovereign's confusion turned to fury.
He saw that the lion's leap was aimed directly at him.
Boom!
The massive lion's paw slammed onto the Shadowtail Demon Sovereign's head.
The eight-zhang-tall, robust body pounced, pinning the dragon's side, and with unstoppable force, it slammed and crushed the Shadowtail Demon Sovereign into the ground!
