Cultivating Immortals in Two Realms, I Possessed the Primordial Thunder Vine

Chapter 12 Suppressing the Prison

With a probability of one in several tens, the difficulty is unimaginable.

Therefore, breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage is the first major hurdle in the cultivation system. Precisely because it is so difficult, many people have resorted to crooked means to break through using other methods.

Undoubtedly, this demonic secret technique provides a simple way for people to easily reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

However, this method is not as simple as it seems.

The Sword Embryo Sacrifice Technique may seem to be able to seize another's Dao Foundation and refine one's own body, but in reality, it is still based on the principle of one-for-one at the limit.

To advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, one must kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator, seize their Dao Foundation, and integrate it into one's own Spirit Sword Embryo.

By evolving the sword embryo into a sword god, one can seize the opportunity of revealing one's full sharpness to transform one's soul, which is equivalent to breaking through the last layer of paper. In this way, one can complete the perfect cultivation of essence, energy and spirit, achieve the unity of samadhi, and directly reach the foundation building stage.

This method inherits the predatory nature of the Star Absorbing Demon Art, allowing one to plunder the power of others for their own use. However, becoming addicted to it will only turn one into a demon and cause one to lose one's humanity.

Moreover, seizing the foundation of a Foundation Establishment cultivator is fraught with danger. One wrong step and you'll be doing all the work for someone else, or even lose control of the battle and become someone else's sacrifice.

Furthermore, seizing the path of others and merging with the sword embryo to become the god of the sword embryo can amplify one's own divine sense and transform one's divine soul, but it also deeply taints one's demonic nature. One wrong step and one's immortal path is destroyed, turning one into a mad demon cultivator.

Of course, there are gains and losses. What seems like a simple method is actually extremely difficult. First of all, using Qi Refining to reverse the foundation and seize the foundation of another's Dao is an extremely difficult task.

Besides seizing the Dao foundation of Foundation Establishment cultivators, another method is to win by sheer quantity, devouring the souls of a large number of Qi Refining cultivators to forge the sword embryo god. However, the sword god created by this method degenerates into a demonic path, becoming extremely chaotic and completely falling into the demonic path.

Using it on oneself, while it might not be a problem to break through to a higher realm, would undoubtedly pollute one's soul and carry the risk of going into demonic possession.

Moreover, the process of contamination is unstoppable, which is probably what the person who left this secret method wanted Xu Changjun to do.

What a grand and righteous scheme!

The entire demonic secret technique made no attempt to conceal its advantages or disadvantages, allowing Xu Changyun to assess it. This secret technique was only useful to a true Qi Refining Stage 9 peak cultivator, but while the benefits were immense, the hidden dangers were also great.

The opportunity to rise to the top in one step is something most Qi Refining cultivators would find hard to refuse.

If Xu Changjun is truly passionate, he would find it hard to give up the idea of ​​cultivating this demonic secret technique.

The key is that it can happen without anyone noticing, which could very well corrupt a family's genius and ultimately lead them down the path of evil.

It must be said that the plan was quite elaborate; with Xu Changjun's knowledge, few people could resist such a temptation.

After all, Foundation Establishment Pills are incredibly rare and the success rate of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage is extremely low. With such a simple method to skip to the Foundation Establishment stage, who could resist?!

Moreover, the harm caused by using it at the beginning is not serious. Imagine the enormous difficulty of crossing realms. Who can say that they are completely unmoved and certain that they will reach the Foundation Establishment level?!

However, once something is done, there will be a second time. After all, it is so easy to take away the foundation that the other party has worked so hard to cultivate. It is like an addiction. Once you get hooked, you will follow it for life.

"What a vicious tactic!!"

Even Xu Changjun had to admire the ingenuity of the opponent's plan, which completely exploited the weaknesses of human nature.

"However, my Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder Sword is imbued with Geng Metal Divine Thunder, which is a majestic and righteous aura that can destroy all demonic energy and evil spirits. If it is forged into the sword embryo, I'm afraid no demonic path will exist."

Xu Changjun pondered to himself and suddenly felt that this method was destined for him. Originally, many of the opponent's arrangements would probably be rendered ineffective because of the existence of Gengjin Divine Thunder.

This immediately excited Xu Changjun. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this idea did indeed have a chance of being realized.

In other words, Xu Changjun was doing this in preparation to create a sword spirit for his top-grade spiritual weapon, the Demon-Slaying Thunder Sword.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary magical artifacts are not worthy of being imbued with spirits. Their materials do not allow them to bear the growth of spiritual energy. If a magical sword wants to have a sword spirit, it must be nurtured in its master's body for a long time and go through constant battles before there is any hope of the sword spirit being born.

However, this Demon-Slaying Thunder Sword, forged from the leaf stalk of the Nine Heavens Thunder Vine, which originated in the primordial world, is a magical sword whose power and materials are special, far surpassing ordinary magical swords, and should not be underestimated.

Furthermore, with the infusion of Xu Changjun's essence blood, it has been upgraded to a top-grade spiritual weapon. If it were to give birth to a sword spirit, there might actually be a slight chance.

After all, Xu Changjun's advancement was too rapid, directly reaching the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining from the sixth level, saving him decades of cultivation time, and also lacking the foundation for the evolution of the magic sword.

Now, this Sword Embryo Sacrifice God Technique has given him the opportunity to make up for the gap. Using strange demonic methods, he can directly plunder the foundation of others' Dao and evolve into a sword god. In this way, Xu Changjun can refine the prototype of the sword embryo magic weapon, greatly enhancing its power.

In any case, this is an external object. With the protection of Gengjin Divine Thunder, Xu Changjun is not afraid of external evil energy invading his soul. He can sit back and relax. He will not use himself to merge with the sword embryo's spirit, but he can shorten the chance for the magic sword to have a sword spirit.

It would also greatly benefit him to learn from and break through to the Foundation Establishment Divine Soul stage, thus transforming himself.

These two options offer two benefits in one fell swoop, making it impossible for Xu Changjun not to be tempted.

……

After thoroughly studying the entire Sword Embryo Sacrifice Technique, Xu Changjun quietly left Lingbi Mountain and headed to his family's residence.

Since the death of his parents, Xu Changjun has chosen to serve as the head of Lingbi Mountain and has not returned to his family for two years.

In retrospect, if he hadn't been born into the Xu family and hadn't received some compensation from the family after his parents' deaths, he wouldn't actually have had much affection for the Xu family.

This time, upon returning to the family home, they bypassed the main house and went directly to a separate building in the northwest corner.

That was the Xu family's prison, also known as the Town Prison. It held those who had committed heinous crimes, traitors to the family, or demonic cultivators and monsters who had entered the Yunlu Mountain area to commit evil.

Basically, they are all mortal enemies of the Xu family of Yunlu.

These people have a lot of secrets, but they are stubborn and refuse to talk. It would be a waste to kill them, so we can only imprison them temporarily and pry them open little by little.

Because this place is a fortified location, few people come here, until he steps into the surrounding area of ​​about a mile.

A cold voice immediately rang in my ears, angrily rebuking me.

"Which branch of the Xu family do you belong to, daring to trespass into this prison!"

"Xu Changjun, a member of the Xu family, has come specifically to plead with the prison elder."

Xu Changjun remained calm and composed, bowing respectfully towards the gate.

The Sword Embryo Sacrifice to the Gods technique is divided into four main stages:

The process of nurturing the sword embryo refers to the need for cultivators to refine a spiritual sword, insert the sword into their body, and nurture it with their own spiritual power for eighty-one days to obtain the sword embryo.

He already has this condition, but the second step, the plundering of the Dao Foundation, requires him to find a Foundation Establishment cultivator as his target, seize their Dao Foundation, and integrate it into his sword embryo.
