The primordial era began with the Upper Cave Man.

Chapter 161 Nine Yang Divine Skill, Passing the Mysterious Immortal Barrier (First Update)

Luo Zu's inner demons did not make any strange cries, but remained silent, as formless and invisible as the Great Dao, subtly influencing his thoughts and intentions.

But how could the Wu and Yao races, who have lived in the world for billions of years and cultivated their magic for billions of years, not have a corresponding solution?

The demon race's method is called "divine suppression," which uses a demon god as a totem to guard the heart and prevent inner demons from invading. Since there are many demon gods, this method varies.

The witch clan's method is called Chongshan, also known as Chongshan, which means the ancient mountains. It is used to suppress the physical body so that inner demons cannot disturb the mind.

Although Luo Zu was exceptionally gifted and had "external advantages," such cultivation techniques could not have been developed without the continuous efforts of thousands of fellow clansmen.

So, with no other option, and even the most skilled cook can't cook without rice, Luo Zu could only borrow the methods of the Lich and Demon races, then deduce them, and finally arrive at his own method.

The method of Luo Zu is called the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

A method to suppress inner demons suitable for human babies.

This method was carefully revised by Luo Zu, but the shadow of the methods used by the Lich and Demon races to suppress inner demons can still be seen in it. Moreover, Luo Zu obtained these two methods from the Chuanre Lich tribe and from Toad Koko.

The Nine Yang Divine Skill involves visualizing the sun to expel inner demons.

When one contemplates nine suns, one's own spirit will also grow stronger. At that time, even if one's inner demons are extraordinary due to the number of times one comprehends the Great Dao, they will be obediently suppressed and will not be able to harm Luo Zu in the slightest.

Luo Zu also worked quickly, completing the cultivation in a quarter of an hour. During his cultivation, he also corrected some mistakes.

After completing his cultivation, all the distracting thoughts in Luo Zu's heart drifted away like autumn leaves, eventually disappearing completely.

This is a great thing, indicating that the "Upper Caveman" tribe also has its own methods for suppressing inner demons.

After clarifying these matters, Luo Zu got up and continued to observe the situation of the tribespeople in front of him.

Cultivation is not easy. They had only been in the "Immortal Realm" for a short time. After being received by Toad Knock Knock, they obeyed the arrangements of this Thunder and Rain Immortal and each received a decree to suppress the spiritual storm in the "Immortal Realm".

This is a test for them, and also a process to hone their spiritual practice.

During this time, they will gradually absorb the power from the spiritual energy storm.

Because these spiritual energy storms were all arranged by Luo Zu, perfectly suited to their own innate supernatural abilities.

So it all depends on their own abilities. If they have high comprehension, they might be able to sense the "naked" Great Dao while absorbing the spiritual energy storm. Of course, the "naked" here is in comparison to the Great Dao of the primordial land.

Moreover, these Great Daos were all born from Luo Zu's own insights, not directly derived from the Great Daos of the Primordial World.

This was also Luo Zu's purpose. After all, the cultivators present who had reached the Void Refining and Dao Integration stage had already begun to observe and sense the laws of nature. If they could see the differences in them, it would mean that their understanding of the Great Dao was quite profound, perhaps even no less than Luo Zu's, and they would not be far from becoming True Immortals.

This is the advantage of having a powerful backer.

If Luo Zu's cultivation were deeper, he could even devise a cultivation opportunity for them.

After Lei Yuxian had settled all the clansmen, Luo Zu leisurely arrived in the "Immortal Realm" and stopped Kou Kou, who was about to leave his body.

"Knock knock, slow down, slow down," Luo Zu stopped him.

When Koukou saw Luo Zu, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Luo Zu, of course, saw it clearly, so he grabbed her and asked, "Why are you so surprised?"

It was also a hidden trick that Luo Zu specially used to create this body, so that even Kou Kou, a seasoned veteran, could not hide his intentions.

Koukou wasn't a wild immortal, so how could he not understand what Luo Zu had done? But he couldn't change it. Living under someone else's roof, he could only listen to it and endure it.

"My dear brother, I'm not surprised, but happy for you! You've overcome your inner demons, and your path to becoming a Xuanxian is now clear," Koukou said.

"Oh? What do you mean?" Luo Zu became interested.

Kou Kou then said, "This is a clan secret. I don't usually tell it to close friends and relatives. But today, since my relationship with my brother is closer than usual, I'll tell him."

"Enough of your nonsense."

Knock Knock shrank his neck, then said listlessly, "Our ancestors once said that the entanglement of inner demons is the will of Heaven. Once one attains the Dao, it is difficult to eliminate them. If one were to forcefully suppress them with immortal techniques, one would have to pass through three thousand tribulations. Each tribulation is a Dao and a demon in one's heart. Once one has overcome the inner demons for three thousand lifetimes, even a Xuanxian (a high-ranking immortal) would be easily defeated."

This kid is also one who spouts rhymes all the time.

"How can there be a three thousand kalpas? Is there anyone in the world who can practice three thousand techniques?" Luo Zu asked, knowing the answer already.

Kou Kou chuckled: "The original limit for a True Immortal to merge with the Dao was 365, which corresponds to the number of stars in the heavens. However, there are more than 365 Great Daos. Thus, some powerful individuals, unable to exhaust their cultivation methods, practiced a total of 3,000 methods and eventually cultivated 3,000 Great Daos. Unfortunately, 3,000 Great Daos bring 3,000 tribulations, and the rampant inner demons have angered the Heavenly Emperor. In the end, the Heavenly Emperor invited a demon master to protect him, and only then was he able to overcome this tribulation."

"After he survived this tribulation, he soared to the heavens, becoming a Celestial Immortal after a hundred years, a Mysterious Immortal after a thousand years, and a Golden Immortal after three thousand years. He was ranked among the stars in the heavens and led the Killing Metal Star. Over the years, he has ravaged countless witch tribes in the lower realm. He is truly the number one warrior of our demon race."

The more he talked, the more enthusiastic he became, as if he wanted to clap his hands and give this demon hero endless praise on the spot.

"Will there be any imitators after this?" Luo Zusi asked.

Kou Kou said, "There must be quite a few. Not every demon has such comprehension and perseverance. Moreover, during cultivation, inner demons are never lacking. Even if secret methods are used to suppress them, sometimes if you relax, these inner demons will reappear and silently take over your mind, causing you to commit all sorts of wrongdoings."

"Moreover, the more great Dao one comprehends, the stronger the inner demon becomes. One great Dao has one inner demon, and these 365 great Daos have 365 inner demons, overlapping and consistent. It was not easy for me to overcome them in the past, and overcoming them only once does not count as overcoming them. Even true immortals and celestial immortals must be on guard at all times."

"One wrong move and even a celestial being will be reduced to dust. Only by becoming a Xuanxian can one overcome the tribulations of inner demons and attain the true Xuandao."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zu chuckled coldly: "So you just said that I overcame the tribulation of inner demons and that the path to becoming a Xuanxian was easy, and that fate was just an excuse to fob me off?"

Kou Kou immediately felt his head buzzing. He knew he had gotten carried away and made a slip of the tongue, making his previous careless words seem false.

"You... have quite a few Dao-merging determinations. If you can overcome one inner demon tribulation... you will surely be able to overcome many more." Well, he couldn't explain himself away either.

Finally, he could only say with a bitter face, "My dear brother, can you please not slap me in the face?"

Luo Zu smiled gently and did not punish him, but said, "Tell me about my thousand virtues."

"..."

Koukou was overjoyed; such glib talk was easy for him to do.

Not to mention a thousand things, even ten thousand things are easy.

While he was praising and exclaiming incessantly, Luo Zu's thoughts had already enveloped the entire "Immortal Realm," checking on the cultivation progress of his clansmen.
