Chapter 118 Harvesting Merit, Cultivating in the Deep Mountains (Please Subscribe)
Wu Tian quickly lost interest in paying attention to Hong Changlin. Once the potential of this cowardly man was unleashed, it would be astonishing.
While enjoying Li Yun'er's madness, his mind was already focused on the white bone relic.
He used the White Bone Relic to rebuild the "Three-Headed Demon God's Prison Suppression Scripture," which was originally just an attempt. After all, the time was too short. Even though the White Bone Relic involves the principles of life and death, coupled with the Dao Embryo realm, it would probably be difficult to achieve any results in a short period of time.
But then something happened that left Wu Tian dumbfounded.
When he initially condensed the first layer of the Life and Death Talisman, the two talismans, upon seeing the white bone relic, pounced on it impatiently, just like cats smelling fish.
The white bone relic spun around, its pure magical power and life-and-death power being frantically devoured by the magic talisman.
That speed left him speechless.
This transformation lasted for three whole days, with the Life and Death Talisman undergoing endless metamorphosis and improvement.
In just one hour, he advanced from the first level to the second level.
Two hours later, he advanced to the third level.
After a night, when it was dawn the next day, he had already advanced to the fifth level.
Now, three days have passed, and the Life and Death Talisman is almost complete.
The price... is that the bone relic, originally the size of a thumb, has now shrunk to the size of a red bean.
Wu Qinghuan's more than 100 years of arduous cultivation, the essence of his cultivation, is all contained in this white bone relic.
But now that the White Bone Relic has been devoured to this state, his strength has been reduced by more than half, and even the White Bone Relic is on the verge of collapse.
Wu Tian didn't care. Since it wasn't his own cultivation level, he didn't feel any heartache. Instead, he was vaguely excited.
"This white bone relic is far more precious to those who cultivate the 'Three-Headed Demon God's Prison Suppression Scripture' than any rare and precious natural treasure or elixir."
"This is not some relic or a Dao embryo; it is clearly the supreme elixir that enabled me to attain enlightenment!"
Thinking of the beads in Wu Qinghuan and Lu Daoqing's heads in the real world, Wu Tian felt his mouth water.
"I really want to smash their skulls open and swallow those two beads."
"No, no, no, as long as I swallow Wu Qinghuan, I can cultivate the Life and Death Talisman to the tenth level in one fell swoop."
He was so excited, he was like a dog that had seen a bone.
No, this is much tastier than meat bones.
"We must devour him..."
Wu Tian was even getting impatient with Li Yun'er. Three days had passed, and he had long since grown tired of her.
He then flung the woman aside, put on his robe, and strode away, thinking, "What is that old bastard Lu Daoqing thinking? He hasn't made a move for three whole days."
Li Yun'er collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted; she couldn't possibly withstand it.
Hong Changlin felt sorry for her and was about to step forward to help her up.
"Get away..." Li Yun'er's face showed a look of disdain as she said to the man with disgust, "You think you're worthy to touch me? A lowly person like you makes me feel disgusted just looking at me."
"If you dare to look again, I'll gouge your eyes out."
When she was having a fit, she made Hong Changlin wipe her sweat, only because she vaguely sensed that it might please her master, so she intentionally indulged him.
Now that it's over, there's no need for him anymore.
Wu Tian ignored the affairs of the lovesick couple and, before he had even left the main hall, his disciple came to report to him.
"Master Uncle, the Sect Leader summons you."
Wu Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief, dismissed the disciple, and headed towards the White Bone Hall.
Whether it was his last words that moved this cunning old fox or not, Lu Daoqing said directly after meeting him: "I have decided that in three days, I will activate the White Bone Demon God and awaken the Yin Meridians."
"If we fail, we will die trying."
"I will give you the Hundred Beasts Soul Banner. At that time, you will collect all the souls of those who died tragically on and off the mountain into the banner."
"Apart from Zhu Yeshuang, if anyone attacks, you should hold the banner to block them."
"If we really can't hold them off, we'll just detonate the Hundred Beasts Soul Banner and release the countless souls that have been collected in the banner over the past few hundred years, leaving those so-called righteous people too busy to take care of themselves."
Lu Daoqing revealed a cold smile: "I want to see whether they will let millions of vengeful spirits run rampant and wreak havoc on the world, or whether they will stop the White Bone Demon God."
Upon hearing this, Wu Tian felt a chill run down his spine. He was indeed a blatant demon who would take countless lives with him at the slightest provocation.
On the surface, Lu Daoqing appears gentle and refined, and usually acts like an ascetic monk. But when it really comes down to it, he is a ruthless and lawless tyrant.
"I'm afraid Lu Daoqing had no hope that Wu Qinghuan, who was holding the Hundred Beasts Soul Banner, could survive."
"Even if Wu Qinghuan really detonates the Hundred Beasts Yin Soul Banner, will the people of Taiqing Temple let him go?"
"This is truly exploiting one's own good disciple to the point of death..."
Wu Tian's mind raced, but he showed a respectful expression: "Disciple will obey Master's orders."
After giving his instructions, Lu Daoqing also relayed the incantation for controlling the Hundred Beasts' Yin Soul Banner before letting him leave.
Over the next three days, Wu Tian attempted to condense a first-level celestial talisman, and then used the white bone relic to refine the three talismans back into one.
But this time it failed.
The three methods conform to one, which is the content of the later volumes of the "Three-Headed Demon God's Prison Suppression Scripture". It is by no means something that he could forcefully achieve by guessing out of thin air or by suppressing it with the White Bone Relic.
"We still need to find a way to obtain the subsequent methods!"
Wu Tian felt somewhat helpless. This kind of constraint was not what he wanted. The most crucial point was that if he wanted to obtain the subsequent methods, he would not only need to accumulate enough merits, but he would also have to completely expose his cultivation progress to others.
This feeling is absolutely awful...
On the last day of the dungeon, as Lu Daoqing had predicted, he directly activated the White Bone Demon God, using the Yin Meridian to collide with the Fire Meridian.
The bone dragon that had been hovering above the mountain peak revived, its enormous body reaching to the heavens and earth howling through the sky. The Yin Wind Cave, used by Skull Mountain to punish its disciples, was the entrance to the Yin Vein.
The so-called Yin veins are not water veins, but rather the accumulation of malevolent energy over countless years, leading directly to the netherworld. They are permeated with evil and ghostly energy, even eroding the land and easily breeding ghosts and demons.
This white bone demon activated its Yin meridians, causing the Yin meridian's malevolent energy to surge and transform into a three-headed, six-armed demon god, which then madly surged towards the underground fire.
Rumble!
At this moment, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked; the entire area within a thousand miles was almost torn apart by the terrifying power of the clash between yin and yang.
Wu Tian naturally ignored Lu Daoqing's advice and ran off with the Hundred Beasts Soul Banner in his hand...
However, what happened next completely blew his mind.
As the Yin and Yang earth veins clashed, the White Bone Demon God roared excitedly.
Above the sky, a giant hand slowly stretched out.
The hand covered the sky, plunging the entire Skull Mountain into darkness.
"We've been waiting for you to make your move, but you're too impatient, you devil."
Wu Tian vaguely heard an old voice in the air. Before he could react, he saw a young and handsome man appear in front of him.
"You little devil, you're fast. If I wasn't careful, you really would have gotten away..."
hum!
Wu Tian only heard the sound of a sword ringing out before his head was already flying into the air. Clang!
An invisible sword light shattered the white bone relics.
"what?"
"Why does this demon's cultivation style seem somewhat similar to my Taiqing True School?"
That was the last sound he heard.
Just before leaving the memory instance, he took one last look at this world.
But the scene was not the death and annihilation of Lu Daoqing that he had imagined.
In the northwest sky, a raging fire appeared, engulfing the heavens and earth, and the face of a deity emerged.
"Haha, good lad, well done."
"It is fitting that I belong to the Demon God Path."
Wu Tian didn't have time to see the final scene before his mind had already left the memory copy.
It took him a long time to gradually come to his senses.
"Damn it, they're all old-fashioned."
Wu Tian couldn't help but start cursing.
Even if he used his brain, he would know that since a rogue immortal had already arrived at Taiqing Temple, the reason they hadn't made a move was because they were waiting for Lu Daoqing to use Yin Pulse to strike the Earth Fire.
He wasn't entirely clear on his purpose in doing this, but it was nothing more than accumulating external skills or refining sword techniques and methods.
He took over the demon's hand, causing immense disaster, and then stepped in to resolve it.
In this back and forth, wouldn't we accumulate merit?
Not to mention, he vaguely saw Zhu Yeshuang using the power of the collision of Yin and Yang earth veins to refine the sword, and at the last moment, she actually charged against the white bone demon god.
"I thought Lu Daoqing was already quite formidable, with the mindset of a ruthless hero, treating the entire Skull Mountain and the demons and monsters below it, as well as the people of the Eighteen Villages, all as pawns and resources that he could use."
"Unexpectedly, Taiqing Temple was not to be outdone. They saw through this old devil's schemes long ago, and then went with the flow to gain merit, train their disciples, and manipulate Lu Daoqing at will."
But Lu Daoqing was clearly no ordinary person. The reason he dared to be so crazy was that he had long since colluded with the Northwest Demonic Path.
Although Wu Tian did not see Lu Daoqing's final fate.
Regardless, the fact that he, as a Nascent Soul True Person, was involved in the game between Loose Immortals and had a sliver of hope already demonstrates his capabilities.
"None of them are simple..."
Wu Tian took a deep breath. Whether it was Taiqing Temple, Lu Daoqing, or the Northwest Demonic Sect, they all had their own schemes and calculations.
If he hadn't used his knowledge of the past to forcibly evolve the future within the memory copy, he probably wouldn't have known that a wandering immortal had descended.
"I'd better behave myself from now on..."
"Now, the entire Skull Mountain area, spanning a thousand miles, is probably under the watchful eye of that wandering immortal."
His eyes gleamed. "The key is what position I should be in during this calamity, what I should do, and what benefits I should seek."
Wu Tian carefully sorted through the information in this memory copy, and then slowly cleared his thoughts.
"Whether it's a rogue immortal, a powerful figure from the Northwest Demon God Sect, or Zhu Yeshuang, Lu Daoqing, or the White Bone Demon God, none of these are people I can interfere with."
"If my small frame were to get involved, I would be dead without a trace in the blink of an eye..."
"Therefore, the best target is Wu Qinghuan."
His mind raced. In the memory copy, he realized that he hadn't obeyed Lu Daoqing's orders to explode the Hundred Beasts Yin Soul Banner.
In reality, however, Wu Qinghuan might very well do just that.
"So my goal is simple: kill Wu Qinghuan, seize the White Bone Relic, and if possible..."
A sinister glint appeared in Wu Tian's eyes. "The instigator, will he have no descendants? What you did, do you think I can't do?"
He was thinking that forcing Wu Qinghuan to reveal the Hundred Beasts Yin Soul Banner might actually be a good thing.
Wu Qinghuan will bear the sins, but subduing the evil spirits, dispelling the malevolent spirits, and eliminating the evil aura will all be acts of merit.
If that's the case, we might even be able to take this opportunity to seek out the methods following the "Three-Headed Demon God's Prison Suppression Scripture".
"As for the Hundred Beasts Soul Banner exploding and ten thousand ghosts running rampant, will people die...?"
Wu Tian slowly closed his eyes, "What does it have to do with me!"
Everything he saw in the memory copy deeply shocked him.
While Lu Daoqing was certainly insane, the Taiqing Temple was by no means a benevolent entity.
One is destined to destroy the world and refine the White Bone Demon God.
One allows the demon to run rampant, waiting only for the crucial moment to strike and reap the rewards.
His attitude of regarding all things in the world as ants, focusing only on his own path and seeking only his own merit, has certainly broadened his horizons.
"We'll see how things go then..."
Wu Tian had made up his mind. His primary goal in this calamity was to kill Wu Qinghuan and seize the White Bone Relic.
If this person detonates the Banner of the Hundred Beasts' Yin Souls, then he can take the opportunity to subdue the Yin ghosts, make a contribution, and obtain the follow-up methods of the "Three-Headed Demon God's Prison Suppression Scripture".
As for his previous fantasies about wanting the White Bone Demon God...
This plan was naturally thrown to the back of the mind.
"That White Bone Demon God might also be one of the players. The outcome of the battle is still uncertain..."
Wu Tian calmed down completely and stopped thinking about it.
This time, it took a full twenty years of magical power to consume, but the gains far exceeded expectations.
Not only did they inherit the entire Skull Mountain legacy, but they also gained a basic understanding of the upcoming changes in the situation.
Knowing that he was likely under the watchful eye of some wandering immortal, he was even less willing to cause any more trouble.
He began to diligently accumulate magical power, comprehend the three volumes of the "Three-Headed Demon God's Prison Suppression Scripture," and thoroughly read the Skull Mountain inheritance as the foundation and reference for his own cultivation.
Several days later, Chi Limu also woke up.
Wu Tian then took her on a journey deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains, searching for rare treasures, fighting against demons and monsters, and honing their magical skills.
As time went by, his understanding of the "Three-Headed Demon God's Prison Suppression Scripture" became more and more profound, his magical power became more and more profound, and his four advanced talents also rose accordingly.
Before we knew it, more than a year had passed.
Wu Tian and Chi Limu fought fiercely deep in the mountains, honing their combat skills and cultivation to perfection.
Especially Chi Limu, who had long lost the naivety she had when she first came down the mountain. She wore a light blue dress, carried an ancient sword on her back, and had her long hair tied up like a waterfall. Her aura was pure and sharp.
She already possessed some of Zhu Yeshuang's demeanor.
Wu Tian, on the other hand, reaped enormous rewards.
