Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 255, Part 254: Plotting to Transform into a Divine Being
The only way to relieve worries is to get rich suddenly!
Li Chunfeng plundered the entire White Bone Castle, and what he obtained was more than ten times that of his previous trip to the Guixu Sea.

After all, this was the life savings of an ancient bone spirit lord who had lived for countless years.

No wonder he explored the realm of the dead for so long without discovering any powerful spiritual objects.

They must have all been taken into the hands of powerful figures.

The innate spiritual object, the Nine Yin Mushroom, is a spiritual object that can help the soul manifest its divine nature.

The reason why the Thorn Divine Soul's power was so strong was because it had consumed the Nine Yin Herb, which enabled it to advance to the seventh realm.

With this Nine Yin Mushroom, all that's needed is to cultivate the Qi Refining Path to the Nascent Soul stage and the Divine Soul Path to the Void Realm stage before attempting to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm.

This is clearly not something that can be accomplished overnight.

At my current cultivation speed and with sufficient resources, it will take at least... two or three years.

Besides that, the biggest gain was undoubtedly materials such as the Eight Extremes Demon Bone.

Li Chunfeng has already collected all the main materials needed to break through the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe to the sixth rank. Before long, the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe will catch up with him again and become one of his main weapons.

As Li Chunfeng learned more about all the permissions, he became increasingly convinced that the position of "Lord of the Dead Realm" was not simple.

Every seventh-rank being in the Netherworld can be called a lord, but not all lords can obtain the lord title recognized by the Heavenly Dao of the Netherworld.

The fifth of the ten lords of the Bone Plains is a title bestowed by heaven.

This is not only a manifestation of his strength and realm, but also signifies that he has entered the ruling and management class of this world, equivalent to an official or noble under the law, enjoying high rights and honors.

It also represents the ultimate goal of evolution.

Because of the limited number of places, the competition is unprecedentedly fierce.

Even among lords, there are differences in rights from the first lord to the tenth lord. The first lord naturally has more power, territory, and authority, but the difference is not particularly significant.

Without knowing Li Chunfeng's background, it's unlikely that any of the ten most powerful lords will dare to attack in the short term.

Then the only option left is to face challenges from other idle seventh-tier lords.

According to the rules of the Dead Realm, as long as a powerful lord has more than 100,000 undead followers, he will be qualified to challenge the top ten lords.

"Suppression!"

"They must be severely suppressed!"

That was the first thought that flashed through his mind.

Regardless of how the other ten lords dealt with similar crises, he was determined to thoroughly and ruthlessly suppress any who dared to challenge him.

After that, Li Chunfeng encountered another awkward problem.

While he was busy ransacking the house, news of the death of the former fifth lord, Thorn, gradually spread. They sensed the dissipation of the original lord contract, and more and more powerful beings began to stir.

Some of the more unruly individuals felt the time was ripe and finally couldn't resist starting a rebellion.

Apart from the more than 300 sixth-tier undead servants he had already subdued, most of the remaining forces gradually disintegrated at the beginning of Thorn Death, splitting into more than a dozen seventh-tier minor lords.

It was as if an ancient empire had fallen, and its generals and subordinates carved up their own territories, becoming warlords who each occupied their own domains.

"This is my territory, do you really not take me seriously?"

Mr. Li was furious.

He then began to mobilize the power of his authority to conduct a detailed investigation of the Plains of Bones.

They discovered that the largest rebel group in their own territory already numbered in the tens of millions of zombies, led by an alliance of nine Undying Bones (Seventh Tier), which had become their biggest problem.

The other lords were also fighting amongst themselves or busy recruiting subordinates, and for the time being, no one had the courage to "unify the chaotic world".

Therefore, this "bald-headed commander" is not in great danger for the time being.

After a thorough investigation, he determined that the most urgent target was a seventh-tier lord with over a million bone spirits, who was closest to the castle and would be the priority to strike.

To avoid being looked down upon by the other ten lords, Li Chunfeng quickly mustered his troops and appointed his personal sixth-tier undead servants as generals.

They mobilized all the undead soldiers they could and launched a brutal undead war.

Punish the traitors!

He personally took action, and those below the seventh rank became nothing more than ants.

As one of the ten lords, only the other nine old guys of the same level could interfere with his actions on this Plain of Bones. There was no need for him to explain anything to this other seventh-tier lord, so he directly started a bloody massacre.

Under his "lordly pressure," the abilities of ordinary undead were greatly reduced, and their feeble resistance was utterly powerless to withstand the attack of the Burning Lamp clone.

As for Li Chunfeng, it was even faster. With the [Necromancer's Crown] to work with him, the power of "Necromancer Summoning" was greatly enhanced.

"Necromantic Summoning" is also an offensive skill. After all, the Netherworld is full of undead, and a summon can have a chance to force them to change their ways. As long as the user's cultivation level is not more than two levels higher, its power is stronger than killing them directly.

In other words, it's not effective against Lord-level undead for the time being.

His number of undead servants has reached six thousand; if the sixth rank is insufficient, the fifth rank will fill the gap.

Using an army of undead to fight undead is also a fast way to kill them.

After shattering the body, the "Great Soul Devouring Technique" opened its mouth and inhaled, immediately devouring and refining the soul fire, turning it into the purest soul essence for his cultivation, increasing the efficiency several times over.

They didn't kill them all; they eliminated half and left the other half, demonstrating their benevolence towards their people.

Leaving some room for maneuver was also out of concern for attracting interference from the other ten lords.

Sometimes, when he got carried away with the killing, he didn't care about anything else and simply let his undead servants lead the way to conquer and kill, repeatedly igniting undead wars.

This action also allowed him and Randeng to rapidly improve their soul power cultivation.

But lords are not so submissive; they will fight to the death to launch a challenge.

However, one should look at a person with new eyes after only three days of separation.

With the aid of the crown and power, Li's strength is even greater than it was a few days ago.

Therefore, only Li Chunfeng, Randeng, and their undead servants were responsible for killing the enemy. The huge number of undead soldiers accompanying him were just for show, to put on a show and flaunt the prestige of him as one of the ten lords.

Leaving his subordinates on the periphery to cheer him on, Li Chunfeng, accompanied by Randeng, multiplied his main body into countless forms, charging straight towards the traitorous lord with murderous intent.

Killing a seventh-tier enemy now would be a waste.

"Necromancer Summoning" cannot summon a seventh-tier contracted necromancer.

Li Chunfeng could only subdue him by defeating him, and then use the authority of the "Ten Great Lords" to form a contract with him and bring him back under his command.

The newly enthroned Soul Dao Ruler, Immortal Wind, Lord of the Death Realm, has begun a great war.

In the world of the Bone Plains, a bloody storm was unleashed, with a continuous massacre lasting more than half a month, eliminating tens of millions of bone spirits, zombies, evil spirits, and ghosts, weakening several of the most threatening territories, and bringing a group of seventh-tier lords back under their command.

Before you know it, a month or so has passed.

In the Spirit Realm, at the Immortal's Abode, Li Chunfeng sat cross-legged beneath a grove of Dragon Sprout Rice Trees. Above his head, his Nascent Soul manifested, spewing Samadhi True Fire that continuously burned clusters of Heavenly Kui Iron and Five Qi True Steel, melting them into the most basic primordial metal energy, which was then refined into an ancient and domineering demonic axe.

a long time.

A flash of light appeared on the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe, revealing a special rune. Counting from bottom to top, there were already four similar mysterious runes, indicating that the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe had reached the fourth tier.

Li Chunfeng breathed a sigh of relief and held the Demon Axe in his palm.

With a casual wave of his hand, a streak of light flew out and struck a distant hill, shattering the giant rocks on the hill into dust without a sound.

"What domineering power of this divine weapon!"

Li Chunfeng was very satisfied, as this was the first time he had independently forged a weapon.

The main reason is that his own Nascent Soul's Samadhi True Fire Divine Power is too useful, allowing someone like him who has no interest in weapon crafting to easily master the method of refining.

As expected.

Reaching the fifth rank only requires a slow and steady process of refinement.

He then left the pass to take care of some important business.

Several more sound transmission jade talismans have been added to the restrictions outside the cave.

After browsing through the reports, he found that most of them were reports from his subordinates on the development of the various bases, the deployment of many tribes in the lower reaches of the Luolong River, and the exploration of the Thunder Swamp, which he was particularly interested in.

Overall, the situation is not very optimistic.

The first two were within expectations, as a policy of appeasement was adopted towards other tribes, without resorting to drastic measures, so the slower progress in subjugation was understandable.

They were all waiting for an opportunity.

This opportunity will likely arrive soon.

According to the intelligence controlled by the Earthly Realm, the gray fog calamity stirred up by the Abyss Giant has actually begun to spread to every corner of the Spirit Control Realm, and the lower reaches of the Fallen Dragon River are no exception.

Before long, the gray fog will visit the outskirts of this desolate region.

In the event of a world-ending invasion by foreign enemies, all steadfast beliefs and convictions will no longer be a problem.

On the contrary, quite a few elite scouts have already been lost in the Thunder Swamp.

The tribe that lives in seclusion in Thunder Swamp is quite powerful and is also very skilled in reconnaissance and defense.

In addition, the high-level spirit shamans' divine sense detection ability is too powerful, and they will not miss even nanodrones in the air. Without special concealment abilities to hide from the divine sense of high-level spirit shamans, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to sneak in and secretly gather information.

Previously, Li Chunfeng had no time to pay attention to it, but now he felt that the time was ripe (he had enough strength).

Then I'll take charge myself.

"Hey~"

A wisp of black smoke emerged from between his brows, transforming into a demonic child the size of an infant, which floated in mid-air and respectfully bowed to Li Chunfeng, "Master!"

Li Chunfeng uttered a thought, and the demon child swallowed it whole.

After a moment, he showed a thoughtful expression, "Yes, sir, I will go and investigate."

"Safety first!"

Li Chunfeng gave a brief instruction: "Go ahead."

With a flick of his wrist, the demon child vanished into nothingness.

There is no better spy than the Heavenly Demon.

If the opponent can even detect the ethereal Heavenly Demon, Li Chunfeng has no choice but to launch a full-scale attack!

Turning around, I entered the realm of the dead once more.

During this period, he spent all his free time in the realm of the dead.

He traveled extensively, planning actions, adjusting existing power structures, and fulfilling the duties of a newly appointed one of the Ten Great Lords.

Most of the territory has now been recovered.

Most wisely chose a policy of non-resistance, thus depriving him of an excuse to further expand his gains.

Unfortunately, the nine Undying Bones at the head of the group broke free from the thorny contract and formed an alliance to advance and retreat together.

For a time, they really gained considerable influence.

Even if Li Chunfeng were strong, he wouldn't dare say that he could take on ten seventh-level Venerables at once.

He also occasionally chatted with Zhang Jingyi, the Immortal Child.

When Zhang Laodao learned that Li Chunfeng was in seclusion every day, stirring up a war of the undead in a world that might be even higher than the Earthly Realm, his little expression was priceless.

Later, he also offered advice and suggestions to him.

According to Zhang Jingyi's analysis, the Lord Challenge event is likely a form of "divine retribution" from the Heavenly Dao of the Death Realm, a test imposed on powerful individuals who have reached a certain level of strength.

If we want to prevent this from happening, we must take preventative measures.

He then concluded that those nine immortal beings would definitely challenge him in the future.

Or challenge others and become one of the new top ten lords.

This is the end.

The turmoil in the realm of the dead has come to an end.

Li Chunfeng's soul power surged, soaring to twenty million divine soul thoughts, while the number of burning lamps was countless.

Cultivators at the Void Step Realm of the Divine Soul Path can mobilize vast amounts of heaven and earth energy. Divine Soul cultivation requires merging with the "Dao," integrating the body with heaven and earth, and transcending life and death. However, the divine soul still needs to avoid tribulations of lightning in order to achieve immortality.

He is now seeking to align himself with the "Tao".

This allows the soul to attain a trace of immortal divinity.

The Nascent Soul stage of the Qi Refining path seeks to harmonize the Five Elements, allowing the individual to merge with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, thus entering the Deity Transformation stage and embarking on a journey in immortality cultivation. This stage also requires avoiding tribulations to ensure survival. Furthermore, it necessitates strengthening the divine soul and overcoming inner demon tribulations to reach the Deity Transformation stage.

Just as he was proceeding step by step, the demon child had already transmitted a thought back through his soul.

What a remarkable Tianpeng tribe, possessing such profound heritage.

The long-lost members of the Thunder Eagle tribe were also hiding in the swamp.

"what!"

"Kunpeng Blood, do they really have a way to find the Kunpeng Secret Realm?"
