The primordial era began with the Upper Cave Man.

Chapter 391 Man-Eating Cultivation, Half-Step Spiritual Treasure

He exhaled and inhaled, dispelling the calamity and digesting its mysteries. In this process, Luo Zu spent a moment.

Even now, cultivation still involves the method of expelling the old and taking in the new. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is still of great use to him, and can be transformed into all sorts of mysteries. He can cultivate into a celestial immortal and obtain immortal energy. The performance of many Taoist techniques also requires immortal energy, as do various thought deductions. Therefore, daily meditation and practice are still indispensable.

Even at the Golden Immortal realm, energy is still indispensable; however, in most cases, one draws upon the power of the Great Dao, and immortal energy should also be converted into corresponding energy.

After all, even celestial immortals and mystical immortals can utilize the power of the Great Dao, only in smaller quantities and with lower quality.

As Luo Zu cultivates the Xuanxian Immortal Qi in this way, he never stops for a moment. However, after a day of such cultivation, the spiritual energy within a light-year radius is exhausted.

Therefore, Luo Zu could only absorb the essence of the sun and moon.

Now, he doesn't have many scruples about absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and he directly draws in the light of the sun, moon, and stars. Only in this way can he maintain his daily cultivation of immortal energy.

In addition, the essence of the sun and moon absorbed by all living beings in the Heart Sea has not been neglected; it has been stored all along, and it may be needed someday to directly use it to replenish the energy consumed when making a breakthrough.

In the past five hundred years, the Heavens and Earth of the Heart Sea have been in turmoil. Because Ancestor Luo has been busy with many matters in recent years, he has neglected the Heavens and Earth of the Heart Sea. As a result, the "flow of time" has slowed down, from the original thousand times the speed of the primordial world to a hundred times. The speed of the Immortal Realm has even dropped to the same level as that of the primordial world.

Despite these changes, although wars continued in the Immortal Realm, the conflict did not escalate; instead, the situation deteriorated.

It was also because the Heavenly Emperor controlled the Heavenly Dao in the Immortal Realm, and the thirty-six Heavenly Venerables were in charge of the Grotto Heavens. Their methods were extraordinary, and the Heavenly Emperor could do nothing about it. In addition, among the seven city lords of the Nine Netherworlds, only the Five Visceral Immortal Lord responded to his call, while the others did not give any response.

However, although the Five Visceral Immortals' cultivation was not slow, he was only at the ninth level of the Celestial Immortal realm, still a small threshold away from becoming a Profound Immortal.

Therefore, even the Five Visceral Immortals could not help the Heavenly Emperor Yang.

However, the Heavenly Emperor Yang had already subdued many Xuanxian (mysterious immortals) and bestowed upon them the title of Immortal Venerable, totaling twenty-eight.

It seems that the Celestial Court is no match for the thirty-six Celestial Venerables. However, the Celestial Court also has the Heavenly Emperor Yang, who holds the power of the Celestial Dao in the Celestial Realm. No one who appears in the Celestial Realm is his match. They can only barely contend with him by relying on the power of the grotto heaven and joining forces.

As a result, the situation in the immortal realm remained deadlocked.

In addition, for some unknown reason, the Heavenly Demon Realm suddenly launched an invasion, attempting to seize all realms.

Moreover, this time there is an additional Heavenly Demon Commander, who is different from the previous Heavenly Demon Lords who act independently and lead their subordinate demons to invade various realms.

This Heavenly Demon General is exceptionally powerful, having progressed quite far into the Xuanxian realm. Furthermore, he possesses inexplicable demonic power, which has garnered the full support of many Heavenly Demon Lords, making him even more enigmatic than the Heavenly Demon King.

If the Heavenly Demon King were not a metaphysical being, a lawless and unruly demon god, these Heavenly Demon Lords might even support the Heavenly Demon Commander to replace him and become the master of the Heavenly Demon Realm.

As for who the Heavenly Demon General is, he is not the manifestation of Luo Zu's will, but rather the manifestation of Luo Zu's inner demons at the last moment before the Dao Fruit was formed.

Upon seeing this, Luo Zu directly cast him into the Heavenly Demon Realm of the Heart Sea. After a thousand years of nurturing, he acquired the magical power to command thousands of heavenly demons.

Luo Zu must be wary of this demon, so he will not release it easily. Unlike other Heavenly Demon Lords, although they are also beings created by Luo Zu's inner demons, Luo Zu would be happy to release them into the Primordial World in the future. However, if this demon is released into the Primordial World, Luo Zu is afraid that this fiend will use the power of the Primordial World to turn against him in the future, so he must keep it under strict guard in his heart sea.

Despite his arrogance in the Heavenly Demon Realm, the Heavenly Demon King's axe blade is always hanging over his neck.

"This demon will be the key to my enlightenment." Luo Zu felt this even more strongly.

Of course, the attainment of Dao here is not the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit. After all, Ancestor Luo now feels that becoming a Golden Immortal is almost a certainty. He just needs to wait for the right time and pass through the tribulation of the Dao Fruit before he can achieve something.

However, there are still the Taiyi and Daluo realms to go, which require a lot of opportunities.

Therefore, Luo Zu wanted to cultivate some resources so that he could break through his realm in the future.

"Could this be considered cannibalistic cultivation?" Luo Zu pondered to himself.

With the Heavenly Demon Commander leading the Heavenly Demons into the battlefield of the various realms, the tense situation in all realms was eased.

The city lords of the Seven Cities of the Nine Netherworlds also began to contact the Heavenly Emperor Yang, who was willing to put aside his prejudices and cooperate with them to jointly resist the Heavenly Demon Realm.

In addition, they jointly extended invitations to the Dragon Realm, the Floating Life Realm, and the Eight Immortals Realm.

They intend to join forces.

However, the Dragon Realm is isolated and has strict rules. Even if a demon invades it, it will be transformed into a dragon. Therefore, the powerful beings of the Dragon Realm don't bother with them.

The Floating World is presided over by a single god, who is currently at a crucial stage in his cultivation, intending to integrate divinity and become a true god. The demons dare not provoke the "independent thoughts" that this immortal elder has separated, so the Floating World has stayed away from trouble.

The Eight Immortals Realm is a continuation of the great sages of the human world. Although they have a great enmity with the Celestial Court, they are willing to set aside difficulties and hatred and fight against the enemy together with the Celestial Realm. This is because they only realized after arriving in the Eight Immortals Realm that this realm had been conquered by the Heavenly Demon Realm. If it weren't for the occasional remnants of the Eight Immortals from the past emerging, this realm would probably have been completely conquered.

In order to protect their new home, the Great Sages of the Eight Immortals were naturally willing to cooperate with the Immortal Realm and join the united front against the demon army.

In this way, the Heavenly Demon Realm once again stands alone against all other realms.

However, this has always been the case in the Heavenly Demon Realm. New Heavenly Demon Lords are born from time to time, and old Heavenly Demon Lords, after being killed, also have a certain probability of being reborn, unless they are devoured by the Heavenly Demon King.

Thus began a new and protracted war. With a new leader, the demons' resolve was strengthened. What used to be a few years, or at most a few decades, was now a protracted war, with the demons determined to fight the heroes of all realms until the end of time.

However, the powerful beings from all realms are not to be trifled with.

The ancient blessed lands, once opened up, had their outer membranes and crusts removed, which surprisingly formed a new defensive line, thus blocking the celestial demons from entering the world.

Furthermore, all realms join forces, and once they discover that a certain area is under serious attack by the Heavenly Demon, they will quickly provide support and drive the Heavenly Demon back.

After a hundred years of struggle, the powerful beings of all realms, led by the Heavenly Emperor Yang and the city lords of the Nine Netherworlds, intend to launch a counterattack against the Heavenly Demon Realm.

Their intention was to destroy the Heavenly Demon Realm and annihilate this sinful demonic lairs.

Unfortunately, they underestimated the strength of the Heavenly Demon Commander. The allied forces were intercepted by him from afar before they even reached the Heavenly Demon Realm.

Countless demonic flames descended from the sky, and the flesh of anyone burned immediately decayed, their cultivation collapsed, and eight or nine out of ten of their cultivations were lost. Only the Xuanxian (mystical immortals) could barely withstand it.

The allied forces had no choice but to withdraw.

What made the terrified allied forces thankful was that the Heavenly Demon Commander was only about 70-80% stronger than an ordinary Xuanxian once he left the Heavenly Demon Realm, which allowed them to escape by sheer luck.

After this battle, the allied forces were severely weakened, while the Heavenly Demon Realm was in high spirits and launched a counterattack.

Left with no other choice, the allied forces had to seek help from the powerful beings of the Dragon Realm and the only god of the Floating World.

The powerful beings of the Dragon Realm made many demands before finally agreeing to send a large army of dragons, but the One God remained extremely indifferent, as if the fate of the Immortal Realm had nothing to do with him.

People then realized that the only god was merely a memento left by the immortal, not the immortal himself.

However, the lingering memory of the Immortal Elder has developed its own independent personality and will no longer adhere to the Immortal Elder's original will.

Seeing this, they were also helpless.

But in the end, the allied forces of all realms managed to resist the counterattack of the Heavenly Demon Realm.

It wasn't because the Dragon Realm army was powerful, but because the Heavenly Emperor had requested the activation of a projection of a half-step spiritual treasure from the Artifact Realm.

What is a half-step spiritual treasure? It naturally corresponds to the birth of a half-step golden immortal.

This half-step spiritual treasure is formed from all the magical treasures and rules of the artifact world. In other words, it is the heavenly way of the artifact world. It can also be said that the entire artifact world is regarded as a magical artifact. The heavenly way that has become spiritual is naturally the half-step spiritual treasure.

Of course, this achievement is also due to the unique nature of the artifact realm. In addition, Luo Zu specially allocated a trace of the spiritual treasure Five Fire Fan into it, which allowed the artifact realm to achieve a breakthrough in spirituality.

Therefore, Luo Zu can now take the artifact realm out to fight against powerful beings.

Because the artifact realm is so special, only magical artifacts can exist there. Furthermore, due to the arrangement of Luo Zu, many true spirits were infused into the bodies of those magical artifacts, so they are born with spirituality and are also considered living beings.

The more enemies Luo Zu lost, the more artifact spirits there were in this world. In addition, although there were many other things on the primordial land, there were also many more wandering ghosts. Over hundreds of billions of years, the ghosts here accumulated on the earth like silt. When night fell, they would roam on the primordial land or "swim" beneath the earth.

Luo Zu did not let these decaying ghosts go. He grabbed them off his horse and threw them into his own artifact realm or sent them to the Nine Netherworld Reincarnation to participate in the reincarnation experiment.

In short, this can be considered a way of making the best use of resources.

To prevent these street urchins from causing trouble everywhere.

As more and more artifact spirits were created, the rules of the artifact world became more and more perfect, and thus this Heavenly Dao of the artifact world came into being.

This can also be considered a process of refining magical artifacts.

This gave Luo Zu an idea.

If every magical restriction on a magical artifact were activated, it would know how to "strengthen" itself, and how to refine itself...

In this way, practitioners can save a lot of trouble.

Of course, this is just a concept; it would be difficult to actually implement it.

After all, if a magical restriction is made to move on its own, is it still a magical restriction? Or is it a magical artifact's spiritual restriction?

It's very difficult, but perhaps it can be transformed into a "program" that, given enough energy, can be developed and refined on its own with a single command.

In addition, after these five hundred years, a small matter began to brew.

The Golden Immortal from the Demon Bear Clan has returned.

He gathered the remnants of the old tribes directly eighteen light-years away from the Upper Caveman tribe, and also rallied various demon tribes, intending to raise the banner of anti-witchcraft once again.

In short, this guy is really arrogant, daring to attack the Great Witch Hou Yi from behind.
