From the waste of spiritual roots to the practice of asking the devil.

"This is the Earthly Treasure Elixir, Yellow Springs Bone?"

at that time.

A layer of crimson spiritual light emanating from Yan Jingxian enveloped everyone, capable of resisting the intrusive fragrance of the other shore flower.

Another hemispherical spiritual shield protected everyone; this ability came from Xiong Pan and was an innate divine power of the ancient Violent Bear Clan.

It's called the [Gravity Reversal Domain]!
Its functions are diverse, capable of both offense and control. Currently, it is being used in a defensive mode to keep out all the "lost ghosts" attracted by the collection of spider lilies and bones from the underworld.

According to Xiong Pan, his resistance limit is at least 30,000. Before collecting enough, he doesn't need to worry about being bewitched by these ghostly beings that embody the rules.

Due to the restrictions of the Mystic Fog and the River of Oblivion.

The group could only scavenge along the way, which was extremely inefficient. If they could use their divine sense to assist them, they could probably plow away all the spider lilies and bones of the underworld in one go.

of course.

Venturing a little deeper into the Bewitching Mist was harmless, and in a short time, they had collected all ten sets of materials, which were now gathered around Wang Yu, curiously examining these unique and rare treasures from the banks of the Yellow Springs River.

Everyone was waiting for Wang Yu to start refining the pills.

He hadn't personally opened a furnace for alchemy for a long time, but he had no shortage of related knowledge and skills. He had also fully comprehended the core inheritance of the Holy Pill Palace, one of the nine lineages of the demonic path.

He only used it in the sea of ​​blood in the Myriad Transformations True Demon Cave!

At the bottom of the boundless sea of ​​blood, there are numerous blood springs and corresponding blood pools. Using water magic and the sacred rituals secretly passed down by the Holy Pill Palace, a third-tier spiritual pill called "Blood Soul Pill" is produced in large quantities.

Each batch of production exceeds ten million.

It's still a fully automated production line version, treating those blood algae, soul lotus, lotus root, blood mud, soul effusion, etc., which have multiplied to billions, as alchemy materials and mass-producing them.

Originally used to cultivate demonic soldiers, transforming them using secret techniques from the Blood Sea Military Manual, they are now commonly used as daily food and cultivation resources for true demonic spirits such as demonic dragons and blood phoenixes raised in caves.

When combined with the Sacred Ritual, the Blood Soul Pill can be fused and refined.

This results in the production of fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-tier Blood Soul Pills, and even occasionally seventh-tier ones. The principle is the same as the "Heaven and Earth Pill Furnace" set up by the Grand Elder of the Sacred Pill Palace in the Demon Refining Domain.

However, Wang Yu's potential is much lower.

After all, the Grand Elder's side refines ninth-order holy pills, and even after several thousand years, they can produce top-tier pills such as "half-immortal pills".

Those were the essences condensed from countless ascended demonic cultivators who died in the Demon Refining Domain within the vast Immortal Realm, almost a culmination of the mysteries of the Human Pill Dao and the Blood Pill Dao.

Wang Yu later switched to cultivating artifacts, but his alchemy skills didn't fall too far behind.

He had already deduced and restored the ancient demon-refining techniques he obtained in the Ice Prison Realm. Apart from the two chapters on talismans and arrays that could not be restored, the chapters on pills and artifacts had special uses.

He suspects it's one of the legacies left by his master, and he'd like to ask him about it if he gets the chance.

At this moment, without any hesitation, he took out his natal spiritual treasure, the Phoenix Furnace. Wang Yu himself had almost never used this treasure in battle, so it was fine to use it under the identity of Zhu Yin.

I pondered the elixir formula from the Qilin's memory for a while.

They started the furnace right away.

As usual, he exhaled a burst of demonic flames, letting the artifact spirit, Little Phoenix, control the fire. Wang Yu then directly added ten portions of spiritual materials, lifted the bottom of the furnace with one hand, and dispersed the divine chains of laws condensed from the Yellow Spring Laws, re-evolving them into Dao trace runes that merged into the flames.

Using the powerful refining ability of the Qi Demon Flame, the laws were systematically injected into the alchemy furnace, and the power of the spiritual medicine began to coalesce.

Such a casual yet effortless technique.

This greatly surprised the four of them.

In particular, their mastery of the laws of the Yellow Springs was far more profound and powerful than the laws they cultivated and comprehended. However, what Zhuyin manifested outwardly was the Yin and the Way of Time.

Yin Li, on the other hand, was even more excited.

Heart way.

'As expected of a seed worthy of the Dragon Court's attention, he likely already possesses the qualifications to become a True Dragon Child.'

They are already considering how to gain Wang Yu's trust.

Not long after.

The medicinal liquid gradually melted into a ball in the alchemy furnace, about to enter the most time-consuming stage of pill formation, when a sudden flash of inspiration struck him.

Another portion of the time sand was taken out.

The law of time transformed it into a drop of crystal-clear liquid, and then enhanced it with the effects of the future Dao Fruit. The moment it was integrated into the elixir, something strange happened.

As if nurtured for several years in an instant, more than thirty [Forget-River Profound Bone Pills] flew directly out of the furnace, emitting a rich and mellow pill cloud that made one's spirit feel much clearer with just one whiff.

Seeing this, Wang Yu seemed to be deep in thought.

Since this was the first time refining, it was not perfect. Ten portions of materials only yielded thirty pills, which is equivalent to three pills per portion, resulting in a very low yield.

Also.

The sudden inspiration also caused the pill to be consumed additionally during the accelerated time, causing a lot of the medicinal power to evaporate or to consume more medicinal power to condense the pill.

But this is already a good result for the five-person team.

Six pills per person.

They continued collecting materials, but all the remaining materials belonged to Wang Yu, and he no longer had to expend effort refining pills.

He didn't actually say everything he wanted to say.

The river water in the second level, "Dead Water Crossing," is a variant of the Yellow Springs River water, and can also be used as an ingredient for alchemy.

It can even upgrade the "Forget-Chuan Mysterious Bone Pill" to the "Forget-Chuan Yellow Spring Pill". The two have the same effect, but the latter is much stronger than the former.

It is effective even for those at the peak of Mahayana Buddhism.

This ancient alchemy recipe is indeed simple and efficient, basically using locally sourced materials to refine various elixirs with unique effects, but it is also limited by the environment.

Often, due to the passage of time and environmental changes, the inheritance of secret recipes is lost, and they have little opportunity to be used.

'The Immortal Abode...is indeed a wonderful place.'

Wang Yu was already pondering how to utilize the "immortal islands" he had sealed above his inner grotto-heaven, which were originally formed from other people's grotto-heavens.

If it could be refined into a secret realm with a special environment.

It might be able to assist his cultivation path, making it faster and smoother, and also perfectly match his own evolutionary needs for mastering numerous laws.

Before truly comprehending the Great Dao of Chaos.

There are conflicting and compatible laws among various laws. For example, he mastered the laws of the sun through the Dragon Eye Secret Technique and harmonized them with the laws of time.

Ultimately, the "Time Realm" supernatural power, which is based on time, was born. This is also a great supernatural power!

If we can evolve in a decentralized manner, we can gain a deeper understanding of the laws.

This will undoubtedly provide him with a perfect starting point, at which point the so-called physical capacity will no longer be a limitation that hinders him from comprehending more laws.

Instead, it shifted the target to the inner cave within its body.

A world is used to contain the laws.

The compatibility alone is much better, so the upper limit is naturally much higher than that of the physical body.

'Following this line of reasoning... the secret to why True Immortals can master more laws and Dao Fruits might lie here.'

Deeply integrating the origin of the cave heaven with the laws of the Great Dao is the cultivation goal of the Dao Integration stage. When one reaches the Mahayana stage, one continues to explore deeply until the Dao Fruit is condensed.

He ascended to immortality after enduring nine tribulations, and from then on, he lived forever!

They have truly paved the way to immortality.

Wang Yu had a vague idea of ​​how to cultivate further, but due to the limitations of his cultivation level, he could not continue to explore it for the time being.

However, his yearning for various Taoist scriptures resurfaced. Several days later.

The group of five finally arrived at the [Dead Water Crossing] checkpoint. Along the way, they had collected about ten thousand alchemy materials, not because they didn't want to collect more.

Rather, once the number of lost souls reaches a certain point, no one can withstand it.

Even with Wang Yu's spiritual realm of [Pure Nirvana], it would be difficult to resist the allure of over 100,000 bewitching rules. If he were to make a mistake, he would be forever trapped on the path to the River of Oblivion.

Therefore, it can be seen that although the trials of the Immortal Abode may seem to be without life-threatening danger, if one is too greedy, there is a high possibility of falling into an abyss of no return.

Xiong Pan: "This is Dead Water Crossing. Someone's Gravity Reversal Domain happens to counter the rules of this place."

Dead Water Crossing.

It stretches to an immeasurable length and is hundreds of kilometers wide, resembling a pitch-black sea of ​​death. The surface of the river is calm and still, with skeletal remains and dried-up chunks of flesh faintly visible floating beneath the surface.

The no-fly zone over this river is not caused by any restriction, but by a special power inherent in the river itself.

Wang Yu was aware of this.

That was the Mo Qilin clan. A certain True Immortal in history, after comprehending the Yellow Springs Dao Principles, mysteriously attached the three Dao Fruits of "Dead Water/Soul Devouring/Forgetting Worries" to the clan's Dao Fruits.

While it increased the upper limit of the Dao Fruit of the Qilin race, it also brought some hidden dangers.

This immortal abode is unlike any other Qilin immortal abode that the Dragon Court has presented before; it clearly embodies the hard work and supernatural powers of many ancient emperors of the Qilin clan.

In short.

Even a peak Mahayana cultivator, who has condensed their own Dao Fruit, cannot forcibly resist the rules of this place at Dead Water Crossing.

No-fly zone is just one of the restrictions.

Stagnant water has the effect of "forgetting worries." Once a living being comes into contact with it, its memories will be quickly washed away. In the most severe cases, it will forget everything and become mentally disabled, even losing the instincts engraved in its body.

Fortunately, the effect of forgetting worries is not permanent.

How long it will last depends on the individual.

Also.

Thirdly, stagnant water has no buoyancy, so rowing is useless if you want to cross these hundreds of kilometers.

The reason why Xiong Pan's gravity reversal domain can be effective is...

It doesn't affect the stagnant river, but rather the cultivator's physical body, making the body as light as a feather, so that one can run across the river directly.

That's what happens when you're strong enough to make a brick fly.

Relying solely on a cultivator's physical attributes, the faster they cross the river, the less time they are affected by the Forgetfulness of Worries. Wang Yu didn't even need three breaths to cross a mere hundred kilometers.

The others were much weaker physically. People like Yan Jingxian and Yin Li were physically frail. The latter belonged to the Ghost Spirit Clan and was a solidified soul body that had been reforged into a physical body.

Although it possesses many advantages and physical characteristics, it does not truly have a physical form.

Xiong Pan is sharing information with everyone.

He said with a serious expression.

"Last time I tried to cross the river, I fell here. There is also a kind of Yellow Springs Demon in the Dead Water Crossing. It is very powerful and will block us from crossing the river. We must be very careful."

Wang Yu's heart stirred.

Step forward and take the initiative to assign tasks.

The reason he brought people along was this: he could pass through the River of Oblivion and the final third level, the Hall of Yama, alone.

In this second challenge, if he wants to obtain the "Treasure of the Underworld" that has been nurtured at the bottom of the river for countless years, he needs these people to help him attract the monsters of the Underworld.

Wang Yu had seen this thing before when he was in the Ice Prison Realm.

then.

It was at the ruins of Dongjijing that the Yellow Springs Abbot, with his half-step Nascent Soul cultivation, damaged his foundation and forcibly summoned the "Yellow Springs Great Demon," which fought to a standstill with the Crimson Heaven Demon Lord.

Although Chi Tian only had the cultivation level of the first level of the Nascent Soul stage, which was considered a disgrace to the Nascent Soul stage, the strength of the Yellow Spring Demon still left a very deep impression on him when he was weak.

The Yellow Springs Demons here are equivalent to the fusion of countless Yellow Springs Great Demons, possessing a "thousand-headed, thousand-armed demonic form," which is extremely effective against a cultivator's spiritual treasures, and can only be dealt with using supernatural powers.

Wang Yu couldn't bear to part with his precious treasures, so he chose these powerful individuals, some skilled in physical combat and others in supernatural abilities, with the goal of delaying countless Yellow Springs demons for him.

He then dived into the Dead Water River, using the Three Thousand Weak Water Realms combined with the changes of cause and effect to deduce the location of the Yellow Spring Treasure and obtain it.

foreseeable.

This treasure can not only help him comprehend the laws of the Yellow Springs, but also serve as a precious material for refining the Yellow Springs Heavenly Demon Banner. Upgrading it to a high-grade Heavenly Profound Spiritual Treasure is definitely not a problem, and there is even a slight chance of it becoming a half-immortal treasure.

After he finished giving instructions.

Everyone's expression changed. Although they had prepared themselves for the risks when they joined, after all, Wang Yu was highly skilled and didn't necessarily have to take them with him.

There are also precious pills that everyone receives for free on the Journey to the River of Oblivion.

The price... will be paid here!
Xiong Pan's expression was not good. He cautiously asked, "I wonder how much time Fellow Daoist Zhuyin will need to achieve his goal?"

Wang Yu frowned and said unhappily.

"I don't know, but I will not leave until my goal is achieved. If any of you have any other intentions, you may go and challenge the Yama Palace on your own."

After saying that, he glanced coldly at Wan Qiuzhen.

The poisonous dragon at the peak of the Dao Integration stage trembled and quickly bowed its head, saying, "I am willing to serve as your vanguard, young master, even at the cost of my life!"

See, this is the benefit of having both status and ability.

Calling them cannon fodder is a bit harsh.

It sounds better to say they're helping each other, since they don't have to fight to the death. The Yellow Springs Demons will then focus their attacks on the Spirit Treasures, willing to sacrifice their resources and strength, so keeping them occupied won't be difficult.

With Wan Qiuzhen setting an example, Yin Li, who wanted to please Wang Yu, was the second to agree. Before long, Yan Jingxian and Xiong Pan had no choice but to agree as well.

"Very good. Once my goal is achieved, I will reward you handsomely. Now, let's get started."

- Om!

As the gravity reversal effect was applied to everyone, the four of them rushed up to the surface of the dead water river. Wang Yu's lips curled up as he secretly made a hand seal.

The Mysterious Pills of the Forgotten River, distributed to the four people, now emitted an aura of the Yellow Springs Source that only Yellow Springs demons could detect, causing the river section within a hundred kilometers to boil instantly.

One thing leads to another; that's Wang Yu's style of doing things.

Whether they agreed or not, once they accepted the precious pill he offered, they had no choice but to act as bait.

This is how we, the people of the demonic path, do things.

Wang Yu then unleashed the power of his physical body, activating the mental hell created within the particles of flesh and blood. Enveloped in endless demonic thoughts, he surged into the Dead Water River like a rocket taking off.

The Three Thousand Weak Water Realm is shaped like an isosceles triangle, with all four sides being water-blue vortexes. At this moment, it envelops Wang Yu and enhances his ability to deduce causal changes.

The guidance from the unseen forces began to take effect.

As thousands of towering "thousand-headed, thousand-armed demonic figures" emerged from the river, the four were caught in a fierce battle and had to give up some of their personal magical treasures to fight back.

Wang Yu then went deep into the riverbed for a quarter of an hour.

They came across a colossal object shaped like a giant pillar, so large that it would take eight or nine people to encircle it. The pillar was entirely dark yellow and covered with roaring patterns of demons from the underworld.

There appear to be thickened hoop-like objects at both ends.

This surprised Wang Yu even more.

'This thing looks a bit like a magic pillar, could it be... the eye of a dead river, like an eye in the sea? The treasure of the underworld... let's take it first!' (End of Chapter)
