Immortal Demonic Path

Chapter 40 Demon King Gazing at the Moon

"Who are the Moon-Gazing Demon King's friends?" Lu He asked coldly.

"No, I don't know. How could we lowly demons possibly have the right to contact the King's friends?"

The spider demon hurriedly begged for mercy: "Taoist priest, spare my life, spare my life!"

"Besides you, how many other monsters are there?" Kong Zhao asked in a low voice.

"They've all arrived; the King has sent all his lesser demons."

Chun Shijiu said, "His Majesty has ordered that we are free to do as we please and eat whomever we want."

"Has the Moon-Gazing Demon King gone mad?" The group looked at Chun Shijiu in shock.

The Moon Gazing Demon King, though at the peak of Foundation Establishment, possessed formidable strength, but he was still no match for the three factions.

Where did it get the audacity to oppose the three factions?

"Pass this message on to Grandpa," Liu Qingyue said immediately.

Kong Zhao said in a deep voice, "This matter is of great importance, and we must indeed inform the elders."

Li Changsheng emerged from the old willow tree and said, "Now that this matter is settled, I should head back."

"Thank you very much, fellow Daoist. Please convey my message to Lingxu Cave Heaven regarding the Moon-Gazing Demon King." Kong Zhao bowed and said.

"Yes, I will," Li Changsheng nodded, then paused and said, "I wonder if I could have two of these monster corpses?"

"These three monsters were all killed by you, fellow Daoist. You may take them with you," Kong Zhao said.

The other three nodded in agreement. The raccoon and the white ape brothers were both killed by Li Changsheng.

"Thank you." Li Changsheng didn't stand on ceremony. With a wave of his hand, he used his spiritual power to carry the three corpses away underground.

As for the small spiders on the ground, he didn't want them, but he would save some for the old willow tree to supplement its nutrients.

Instead of rushing back to the blacksmith's shop, he began to devour the three monster corpses underground.

If the Moon-Gazing Demon King can sense the aura of the lesser demons and find the blacksmith's shop, wouldn't he be doomed?

The three corpses quickly shriveled up, their blood and flesh essence being absorbed and stored inside their bodies.

"The corpses of monsters possess far more flesh and blood essence than humans."

Li Changsheng sensed the essence of flesh and blood, which was far superior to that of human cultivators.

The white ape brothers, in particular, are incredibly rich in blood and flesh essence; one of them is equivalent to one and a half large raccoon dogs.

As for Lu Changshou, he's far inferior.

Back at the blacksmith's shop, I focused on digesting the nutrients from the flesh and blood. As for the Moon Gazing Demon King, I'll deal with that tomorrow.

Each drop of blood and flesh essence transforms into pure nutrients, tempering the body.

The crimson veins on the main branches became increasingly clear, making the immortal tree even more eerie.

After a night of tempering, his body refinement improved significantly once again.

He took out another drop of Xuanling Liquid and absorbed it for cultivation.

The pure spiritual liquid dissolved, not into a pill, but into pure spiritual energy, along with the scent of herbs and trees.

"Is this spiritual energy extracted from plants?"

Li Changsheng's expression changed slightly. Clan... No, he was a unique tree of immortality, so where did this clan come from?

Okay, that's all. Back to cultivation!

Pure, refined spiritual energy can be easily transformed into spiritual power.

Moreover, a single drop of Xuanling Liquid is almost equivalent to two high-grade Qi Refining Pills.

After refining the Profound Spirit Liquid and feeling the improvement in his spiritual power, he couldn't help but say, "No wonder Senior Brother Nie Qiu mentioned the Profound Spirit Liquid; it is indeed extraordinary. I just wonder if there's any of Foundation Establishment quality?"

The Profound Spirit Liquid, which is for Qi Refining Realm cultivators, is of no help to Nie Qiu, who is at Foundation Establishment Realm.

Looking at the sky, it was already getting light.

Li Changsheng walked out of the blacksmith shop and found that there were many cultivators in Zhongyang City who had gotten up early and were heading out of the city.

Along the way, some practitioners were discussing matters related to demons.

Moreover, many cultivators have inquired about it, and it turns out that the Moon Gazing Demon King is coming to see his friends.

"This news spread way too fast, do I even need to relay it?" Li Changsheng was a little confused.

Are all these monsters so soft-boned?

Upon arriving outside the city, the three elders were no longer there, and a group of cultivators informed them about the monster.

"Understood, understood, the elders have already gone to investigate."

"A Foundation Establishment disciple from Shuiyue Cave Heaven said impatiently."

Li Changsheng did not go over there. Since he already knew, there was no need for him to report it himself.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw Niu Wendao and several disciples of Lingxu Cave.

Behind them were several cultivators from Lingxu Cave Heaven.

The leader was handsome, with his head slightly raised and an air of arrogance between his brows. However, he seemed somewhat uneasy when he saw Niu Wen's question.

Some people around him call him Senior Brother.

Li Changsheng glanced at him and then looked away. This was his senior brother, Changchun, who was being chased and beaten by Niuduzi!

The people from Shuiyue Cave Heaven have arrived, led by a young man for whom he had previously crafted magical artifacts.

Mo Xuanming!

He didn't recognize any of the people from Qingxuan Cave Heaven, nor did he see Liu Qingyue or the others.

Without lingering, to avoid being chased and pulled by the calf, I quickly left.

Looking back from afar, a group of disciples gathered around Niu Wendao, their smiles fawning, truly a case of being surrounded by admirers.

The calf is too young; he accepts everyone who comes his way and already considers himself the senior disciple, only short of changing his address.

He shook his head, returned to the blacksmith's shop, and continued to digest the nutrients and the Xuanling liquid.

This time, he closed the blacksmith's shop and went into seclusion in peace.

He sat down cross-legged and took the Xuanling Liquid to refine his Qi.

I can't afford to provoke things outside, and as for killing monsters, I'd better give up. What if I run into the Moon Gazing Demon King who's visiting a friend? Wouldn't that be like a free elixir of immortality delivered to my door?

Moreover, his fighting ability is not long-lasting; if he encounters a few more demons, he'll just be easy prey.

As each drop of the Mystic Spirit Liquid was refined, the Spirit Void Mystic Technique was pushed to its limit, and the spiritual power within the dantian rapidly improved.

Li Changsheng was completely immersed in his cultivation when, at night, some ignorant little demons barged in.

He won't be polite when nutrients are delivered to his door.

He turned the little demon into fertilizer and then disappeared underground. Only after confirming that no other demons were looking for him did he return to the blacksmith shop to continue his cultivation.

As more and more demon cultivators arrived in Zhongyang City, the City Lord's Mansion and the three major families had no choice but to join forces and arrange for people to patrol at night.

Even so, quite a few minor demons still managed to break into the house.

Li Changsheng also gained several more demon cultivators as fertilizer.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed. His physique has become stronger, and he still has plenty of nutrients in his flesh and blood.

He continued to refine his body and did not emerge from seclusion.

More monsters come at night; if you can defeat them, they become fertilizer; if you can't, you can burrow underground.

He didn't dare go far, because there were even more patrols outside.

The disciples of the three sects all came out to slay demons, and Li Changsheng could occasionally pick up a few demon corpses.

On the night of the sixth day, a deafening roar startled Li Changsheng, who was cultivating, and also awakened the entire Zhongyang City.

A toad the size of a small mountain, its body covered in a layer of silver gauze.

Gu Hengtong and the two elders, along with the toad, rushed out of Zhongyang City.

Foundation Establishment Monster!

He saw one Foundation Establishment cultivator after another leave Zhongyang City by riding their magical artifacts.

咚咚

A knock sounded at the door, and Liu Qingyue's voice came through: "Fellow Daoist Changsheng, are you inside?"

Li Changsheng opened the door and asked, "Fellow Daoist, is there something you need to visit so late at night?"

"Recently, there have been more and more monsters. Tonight, the Moon Gazing Demon King has appeared and wants to invite you to Qingliu Courtyard to activate the formation and help us resist the monsters," Liu Qingyue said.

"The Moon-Gazing Demon King has appeared?" Li Changsheng asked in surprise.

"Yes, just now in the sky, there was a toad covered in moonlight, which was the true form of the Moon Gazing Demon King."

Liu Qingyue said in a low voice, "The Moon-Gazing Demon King's true form is the Moon-Gazing Toad, which absorbs the essence of Taiyin to cultivate."

"Then I'll go with you to Green Willow Courtyard." Li Changsheng pondered for a moment, then took Liu Qingyue and teleported back underground.
