Chapter 68: Jade Dew Perfection, Draconic Demon Power
Chapter 68: Jade Dew Perfection, Draconic Demon Power
[Year 21, you consumed the Fox Demon's Beast Essence, saving time on breathing and cultivation, thus improving efficiency.]
[Year 23, you swallowed the Serpent Demon Core again, replenishing your depleted Beast Essence.]
[Year 24, you comprehended Jade Essence. Draconic Demon Power.]
[Year 27, the Jade Dew within the Twelve Great Acupoints gushed out, gathering in the Energy Sea, like fragrant elixir... You successfully entered the Early Jade Essence Realm, and the Wind and Thunder Sun-Fusing Scroll achieved minor success.]
[Remaining Lifespan: 146 years]
[Remaining Demonic Being Lifespan: 1,473 years]
...
Indeed, just the unrefined Beast Essence Demon Core had halved the required time.
Shen Yi's mind was slightly distracted.
He exhaled a breath of clear air, closed his eyes, and naturally, a golden Jade Dew appeared before him.
It was slightly viscous, clumped together, and shone brilliantly.
It was as if the sweetest nectar in the world, making one's index finger twitch uncontrollably.
Above the Jade Dew, countless dark red veins intertwined, forming a net that enveloped everything.
A scorching, hot breath slowly swept through, heavy and oppressive, like a purgatory.
"..."
The Twelve Great Acupoints endlessly inhaled the energy of heaven and earth, sending it to the great prison, and then transforming it into dripping Jade Dew.
Shen Yi reopened his eyes.
He tried to manipulate the Jade Dew and immediately felt a change in its quality.
Its condensed state far surpassed before.
Representing that in the same amount of time, he could control over ten times the previous breath.
This manifested in his techniques, resulting in a substantial increase in lethality.
"Is this also related to the Jade Dew Realm?"
Shen Yi reached out to take the last Demon Core, but suddenly froze.
He looked at his palm with some surprise.
This unfamiliar feeling in his body... The last time he experienced this was when he achieved Mortal Perfection, and it took half an hour to readjust.
He remembered something and quickly opened the panel.
[Jade Essence. Draconic Demon Power: With a mortal body, command the power of the dragon deity.]
The description was extremely brief.
But it made Shen Yi's breathing quicken.
The over ten zhang long draconic demon's body was incredibly powerful. Even in its injured state, it endured ten Heavenly Trigram Blood Slaughter techniques before succumbing.
Although saying it could overturn rivers and seas was an exaggeration, when it easily tore through his Eight Treasures Mystic Body, its expression didn't change at all.
And now, such vast power was hidden within his human body.
The Vajra Sect's method of tempering the body with breath could achieve the strongest physical body in the same realm, but compared to these naturally born demonic beings, their innate divine abilities made it seem somewhat inferior.
"This is truly exaggerated."
Shen Yi moved his fingers, trembling slightly, as he picked up the last Demon Core with the same caution as using chopsticks to pick up peanuts.
To fully master this power, it would take several days.
After finally putting the Demon Core into his mouth, he once again infused the Demonic Being's lifespan into the Wind and Thunder Sun-Fusing Scripture.
The Essence Furnace had already taken shape; all that was left was time.
[Year 1, you consumed the Fish Demon's Inner Core, and your cultivation progress improved.]
[Year 4, the Energy Sea was filled to the brim, almost overflowing. The Inner Core's demonic power was exhausted, and you didn't comprehend the innate ability, but under its influence, your swimming ability improved.]
[Year 6, Jade Dew overflowed, starting to nourish your meridians. Your veins could withstand several times the previous Jade Dew, breaking through to the Middle Jade Essence Realm, and the Wind and Thunder Sun-Fusing Scripture achieved minor success.]
...
From this prompt onwards, the passing words made Shen Yi pursed his lips, his expression slightly peculiar.
Compared to the demonic beings and heavenly treasures, this world was stingy to the point of being infuriating.
Whether it was spiritual plants, demonic beings, or the foremost among all beings, humans... The breath it granted was all the same.
【Seventy-ninth Year: Your insatiable greed for the heavens and earth hopes for more Jade Dew to nurture your bones.】
【Two Hundred and Third Year: Your bones, nourished by Golden Dew, become increasingly translucent, naturally forming jade bones. You step into the Late Jade Dew Realm, and the Wind Thunder Sun Melt Scripture reaches its pinnacle.】
【Three Hundred and Twenty-Sixth Year: The Jade Dew spreads to your viscera, deepening your foundation. Your entire being becomes like a treasure medicine, exuding a tantalizing sweetness.】
【Five Hundred and Eighty-Second Year: Until even your blood sparkles with golden light, and your eyes gleam with a sudden brightness, only to dim again shortly after. You finally learn to conceal your aura, preventing demonic beings from prying. You are no longer a treasure medicine but a sharp blade sheathed within.】
【Jade Dew Realm Perfection】
【Remaining Lifespan: Two Hundred and Ninety-Six Years】
【Remaining Demonic Lifespan: Eight Hundred and Ninety-One Years】
...
Shen Yi clenched his fists and closed his eyes once more.
He focused his gaze inward.
Countless dark red veins intertwined, forming a grand prison, and a dazzling golden light filled his vision.
No longer confined to this place, they freely coursed through his entire body.
His naturally formed jade bones shone, illuminating his five viscera and six bowels, and his blood sparkled with golden light, like a roaring river, its thunderous roar echoing in his ears.
Amidst this awe-inspiring sight, Shen Yi momentarily forgot his previous pain.
Even after opening his eyes, he remained immersed in the golden glow, unable to break free.
"Huff..."
He steadied his breathing, forcing his mind to calm.
With such a significant advancement, it was inevitable for his emotions to be stirred.
After slaying countless demons and arriving at the Demon Suppression Bureau,
He finally reaped the rewards.
The richness of these rewards left Shen Yi without a single complaint.
This new body was far superior to its previous state.
With nearly three hundred years of lifespan, he was almost on par with demons.
He slightly lowered his gaze.
Forget about living a new life; this was enough for three lifetimes.
Even if he chose to settle down from this day forward, doing nothing, he could live a long and satisfying life.
But after witnessing the previous scene,
How could he settle for mediocrity?
He wanted to climb higher, yet he also desired a peaceful life. To achieve both, life-preserving means were indispensable.
Shen Yi looked at the top of the panel.
【Current Martial Arts】
Bone-Piercing Capture Technique (Pinnacle)
Novice Level. White Ape Playing with Python (Perfection)
Jade Essence. Heavenly Trigram Blood Slaughter (Perfection)
Jade Essence. Vein Severing Dragon Capture (Perfection)
Jade Essence. Greedy Wolf Evil Annihilation (Perfection)
Jade Essence. Golden Sun Eight Treasures Mystic Body Upper Canon (Perfection)
...
He scanned through all the martial arts.
Shen Yi pondered.
After his journey to Shuiyun Township, he could discern the strengths and weaknesses of various martial arts.
The Black Blade was sharp, a testament to its meticulously crafted techniques. It could easily pierce through demonic flesh, restore stamina, and heal injuries. However, it struggled against larger opponents.
Vein Severing Dragon Capture swiftly rendered enemies powerless, but it required close-quarters combat, making it extremely risky.
Heavenly Trigram Blood Slaughter was quite impressive, but it consumed a significant amount of energy.
After much contemplation,
Shen Yi's gaze fell upon the Wind Thunder Sun Melt Scripture and Golden Sun Eight Treasures Mystic Body.
The former might lead to the Essence Condensation Realm... probably.
Recalling his own comprehension, Shen Yi wasn't entirely sure.
The latter, obtained from Zhang Tu Hu, only allowed him to barely surpass the Jade Dew Realm threshold upon perfection. Although invaluable in the initial stages, it was now ineffective for Shen Yi, as the protective mystic light could no longer shield him.
Initially, he was reluctant to waste his demonic lifespan on it.
But after acquiring the Draconic Demon Power, Shen Yi hesitated.
If he were to engage in close combat with demons, he needed a sturdy body.
