Chapter 68: Jade Fluid Perfection, Flood Dragon's Demonic Might
Chapter 68: Jade Fluid Perfection, Flood Dragon's Demonic Might
[Year Twenty-One: By consuming the Fox Demon's Beast Origin, you bypassed the time needed for breathing exercises, increasing your cultivation efficiency.]
[Year Twenty-Three: You consumed the Flood Dragon Pill once more, replenishing your depleted Beast Origin.]
[Year Twenty-Four: You achieved enlightenment in the Jade Fluid and Flood Dragon's Demonic Might.]
[Year Twenty-Seven: The jade dew from the twelve orifices poured into the Qi Sea, gathering like fragrant nectar... You have successfully entered the early stage of the Jade Fluid Realm, and have made progress in the Wind, Thunder, Melt, Sun Secret Manual.]
[Remaining Lifespan: One hundred and forty-six years.]
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: One thousand four hundred and seventy-three years.]
...
Indeed, the unrefined Beast Origin Demon Pill had halved the required time.
Shen Yi's thoughts were slightly distracted.
He exhaled a breath of clear air and closed his eyes, and a pool of golden jade fluid naturally appeared before him.
It was slightly viscous, clumping together and shining brilliantly.
It seemed like the most delicious nectar in the world, making one's index finger twitch in anticipation.
Above the jade fluid, countless dark red veins intertwined, forming a large net that enveloped the entire area.
A scorching hot breath slowly rolled in, heavy and oppressive, like a blazing inferno.
"... "
The twelve orifices ceaselessly inhaled the energy of the heavens and earth, sending it to that great prison, where it was transformed into drops of jade dew.
Shen Yi opened his eyes again.
He tried to manipulate the jade fluid and immediately felt a qualitative change.
It was far more condensed than before.
This meant that in the same amount of time, he could mobilize ten times more energy than before.
When applied to his techniques, this resulted in a substantial increase in destructive power.
"Is this also related to the Jade Fluid Realm?"
Shen Yi reached out to take the last demon pill, but suddenly froze.
He looked at his palm in surprise.
This unfamiliar feeling in his body... The last time he experienced something similar was when he had perfected his mortal body, and it had taken half an hour to adjust back then.
He remembered something and quickly opened the panel.
[Jade Fluid, Flood Dragon's Demonic Might: With a mortal body, you wield the power of a flood dragon.]
The description was extremely concise.
But it made Shen Yi's breath quicken.
That flood dragon's body, over ten zhang long, was incredibly strong. Even while injured, it had endured nine Heaven-Rending, Blood-Soaking Strikes before finally dying.
It would be an exaggeration to say that it could overturn the seas and rivers, but when it had easily torn through his Eight Treasure Mystic Light, its expression hadn't changed at all.
And now, such immense power was hidden within his human body.
The Vajra Sect refined their bodies with qi, achieving the strongest physical bodies among their peers, but compared to these innate magical monsters and their innate divine abilities, it seemed somewhat inferior.
"This is really exaggerated."
Shen Yi flexed his fingers, his hand shaking slightly as he picked up the last demon pill with the same caution one might use to pick up a peanut with chopsticks.
It would take several days to completely master this power; it couldn't be done in an instant.
Finally managing to put the demon pill into his mouth, he once again channeled the demon lifespan into the Wind, Thunder, Melt, Sun manual.
The treasure furnace had already taken shape; all that was left was time.
[Year One: You consumed the Fish Demon's Inner Pill, and your cultivation progress increased.]
[Year Four: Your Qi Sea is full, almost overflowing. The demon power of the inner pill is exhausted, and you have not yet comprehended your innate ability, but under the influence of the demon power, your water attribute has increased.]
[Year Six: Jade dew overflows and begins to soak your meridians. Your meridians can now withstand several times more jade dew than before. You have broken through to the middle stage of the Jade Fluid Realm, and the Wind, Thunder, Melt, Sun manual has made some progress.]
...
From this prompt onwards, the words that flashed by made Shen Yi press his lips together, his expression turning subtle and complex.
Compared to the demons and the heavenly treasures, this world was stingy to a deplorable degree.
Whether it was spiritual plants, demons, or humans, the pinnacle of all life... The amount of energy it granted was actually the same.
Chapter 79: Unyielding Demands from Heaven and Earth, Nurturing the Skeleton with Jade Dew
[Year 203: Your skeleton, bathed in golden dew, becomes increasingly translucent and radiant. You have achieved the late stage of the Jade Fluid Realm, and the Wind, Thunder, Melt, Sun Secret Manual has reached perfection.]
[Year 326: The jade dew spreads to your viscera, deepening your foundation. Your entire being resembles a precious elixir, exuding a tempting sweetness.]
[Year 582: Even your blood begins to glimmer with golden light, and a brilliant light shines in your eyes, only to quickly fade. You can now conceal your aura, preventing demons from prying. You are no longer a treasure pill, but a sharp blade sheathed and hidden.]
[Jade Fluid Realm: Perfection]
[Remaining Lifespan: 296 years]
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 891 years]
...
Shen Yi clenched his fists and closed his eyes once more, sinking into a meditative state.
In his mind's eye, he saw a vast prison of intertwined dark red veins, with brilliant golden light dominating his vision.
The light was no longer suppressed in this place but coursed freely through his entire body.
His skeleton glowed with jade radiance, and his five viscera and six entrails shone brightly, his blood shimmering with golden light like a rushing river, its roar filling his ears!
Such a striking image left Shen Yi temporarily forgetting the heartache he had felt earlier.
Even after opening his eyes, he remained immersed in the vision of golden light.
"Hu..."
He steadied his breathing, forcing his restless mind to calm down.
Such a tremendous improvement inevitably led to a turbulent state of mind.
After slaying so many demons and arriving at the Demon Subduing Pavilion, he had finally reaped the rewards of his efforts.
And the richness of these rewards left Shen Yi unable to find any fault.
This new body was now utterly transformed from what it had been before.
With nearly three centuries of lifespan, he was almost akin to a demon himself.
He lowered his gaze slightly.
Forget about living a full life, this was enough for him to live three more lifetimes.
From this day forward, he could choose to do nothing and still live a long and boring life.
But after witnessing the previous vision...
How could he be content with mediocrity?
He wanted to strive for more, to reach greater heights, and to live a long and fulfilling life. To have both, he needed to possess the means to protect his life.
Shen Yi looked towards the top of the panel.
[Current Martial Arts]
Penetrating Bone Capture Hand (Great Accomplishment)
Initial Realm: White Ape Playing with Python (Perfection)
Jade Fluid: Heaven-Rending, Blood-Soaking Strike (Perfection)
Jade Fluid: Vein-Severing, Dragon-Capturing Strike (Perfection)
Jade Fluid: Greedy Wolf, Evil-Annihilating Strike (Perfection)
Jade Fluid: Golden Yang, Eight Treasure Mystical Body, Upper Volume (Perfection)
...
Shen Yi scanned through all the martial arts listed.
With his experiences in Shuiyun Village, he had developed a sense of which martial arts were superior.
The Black Blade was sharp and deserved its reputation, able to easily pierce through demon flesh and restore stamina, with healing effects. However, it struggled against larger opponents.
Vein-Severing, Dragon-Capturing Strike could swiftly render enemies unable to resist, but it required close-quarters combat, which was extremely risky.
Heaven-Rending, Blood-Soaking Strike was quite useful, although it consumed a lot of energy.
After much contemplation, Shen Yi's gaze fell upon the Wind, Thunder, Melt, Sun manual and the Golden Yang, Eight Treasure Mystical Body.
The former might offer a chance to deduce a Golden Core internal technique... or so he hoped.
Recalling his own enlightenment, Shen Yi wasn't entirely confident.
The latter, obtained from Zhang the Butcher, only allowed him to barely step into the Jade Fluid Realm after perfection. While invaluable in the initial realm, the protective mystic light was now of little use to Shen Yi.
Originally, he had been reluctant to waste demon lifespan on it.
But after obtaining the Flood Dragon's power, Shen Yi hesitated.
If he were to engage in close-quarters combat with demons, he needed a tougher body.
