Hei Fengshen's infinite deduction to become a saint
Chapter 17 A Leap Forward, A Killing Attack
The snake demon crawling below trembled as it said, "Your Majesty, the Second Cave Master's soul lamp has truly gone out."
The Black Water Demon King looked grim; he was a true immortal.
The reason why they could tolerate a Nascent Soul cultivator as the second king of their cave was because the other party's father was the elder of the Blackwater Demon Serpent clan - Blackwater Dragon Soar.
Although the other party was just one of the elder's many sons, the bloodline meant that he naturally had a connection with the Blackwater Serpent clan, thus gaining a powerful backer.
Even the name of the Blackwater Serpent Cave was borrowed from the Blackwater Demon Serpent clan.
His expression shifted rapidly. "Blackwater Xuanye is dead. There must be an explanation."
A cold voice echoed in the cave, "Tell me, which direction did the Second King go?"
A snake demon quickly twisted its body and emerged from the side, flicking its tongue and saying in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the Second King said he went east before he left."
"In the past two weeks, many of our tribesmen who haven't yet developed intelligence have disappeared over there."
The Blackwater Demon King's eyes turned cold. "Summon all your demon soldiers and come with me."
The Blackwater Serpent Cave unleashed its full force, hundreds of demon soldiers, accompanied by various aquatic mounts, rushing eastward in a dark mass.
The Blackwater Demon King used a strange spell, seemingly trying to capture the aura left behind by Blackwater Xuanye in the seawater.
In less than half an hour, they arrived near the Golden Crystal Cave.
A faint stench of blood lingered in the seawater. The Blackwater Demon King's eyes were grim. "Search! Interrogate every aquatic creature in this area and find out what exactly happened here."
His demon soldiers quickly scattered, while the Blackwater Demon King waited silently.
Soon, a demon soldier came to report, "Your Majesty, we have discovered a cave with many dried-up corpse fragments inside."
The Black Water Demon King's expression hardened, and he quickly rushed over.
A moment later, the Blackwater Demon King stood in the empty cave, looking at the ashes scattered on the ground and the pearl pit that had been dug out above his head, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"It seems that a cultivator found the cave here, broke through the cave's formation, and took away everything of value."
"The lower-ranking members of the race have become resources for them to replenish their mana."
"Heh, damn it, they actually dared to lay a hand on my Sea Serpent Clan?"
The Blackwater Demon King turned and left, and soon a message was sent to the Blackwater Serpent Demon Ancestral Land.
A cause and effect has quietly taken shape, and the core of this cause and effect is Li Changshou.
……
Nameless Island - Nameless Cave - Nameless Taoist Priest sits in the cave.
Li Changshou traveled for three days before returning.
Sitting on the withered futon, he raised his hand and poured out all his spoils.
The room contained a lot of magical materials, which he swept aside.
Magical artifacts: a yellow fishbone sword and four array artifacts.
Cultivation techniques: Shangqing Zhuling Scripture, Shangqing Xuangong Transformation, Shangqing Shuiling Scripture, and Jinjing Sword Scripture.
Spell: Origami Secret Technique
Elixir: Three bottles of Essence and Blood Elixir.
Corpse: The corpse of a black water demon snake, three zhang long.
Li Changshou picked up three Shangqing cultivation manuals and quickly recorded them on the Creation Jade Disc.
"These are all fragments; the magical techniques of these four people all originated from these."
He glanced at the Essence Blood Pill and said, "It's a highly refined medicine made from human blood essence and flesh, and it's a hard currency in the cultivation world."
"Unfortunately, I can't eat it, but I can use it for trading."
His gaze then fell on the "Golden Crystal Sword Scripture," "This thing is already recorded on the Jade Disc of Creation, so I don't need it for now."
His gaze fell on the "Secret Techniques of Origami" again. "This thing saved my life by some twist of fate."
"Although it's not exactly respectable, it's perfect for me to use to detect all sorts of dangers."
With a slight touch and a thought, the information is recorded on the Jade Disc of Creation.
His gaze finally settled on the corpse of the Blackwater Serpent.
The corpse was sealed by a restriction, and all the power within it remained intact, including the opponent's shattered primordial spirit.
Li Changshou's eyes revealed joy. "Refining Qi and Devouring Divine Transformation, if operated properly, is enough to push me to the Ninth Revolution of Strange Qi Realm."
"Stepping into the Nascent Soul stage is only one step away, and becoming a True Immortal is not far off."
"Now it is the seventh year of Emperor Yi's reign, and there are still 30 years until the seventh year of Emperor Xin's reign when he wrote the lewd poem to tease Nuwa."
"Once I can reach the realm of True Immortal, my ability to operate in various places will increase."
In this world of Investiture of the Gods, apart from the heroic spirits who died on the battlefield of the Great Zhou's conquest of Shang, those who could be listed on the Investiture of the Gods were almost all beings above the level of True Immortal.
As for the other dead, they were either reincarnated or turned to ashes. Those who were lucky became heavenly soldiers, serving as cannon fodder for life.
"Becoming a True Immortal is the minimum guarantee; the worst that can happen is becoming a Deity. Being a beast of burden is better than dying."
Li Changshou had no confidence in the future and could only try to increase his chances of survival little by little.
The Shangqing Devouring Spirit Record operates silently.
A hazy blue light enveloped the Black Water Serpent, forcibly drawing out its essence and rapidly refining it.
Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Changshou sat cross-legged, his appearance solemn and dignified, a pure blue radiance flowing through his body.
Before them lay the shriveled corpse of a black water serpent demon.
He opened his mouth slightly, swallowing the essence bit by bit.
Suddenly, a faint clicking sound rang out.
The Blackwater Serpent Demon's corpse completely split open and gradually turned into ashes.
After half a month of consumption, its essence and magical power have been completely drained.
Even the fragments of the primordial spirit were refined and transformed into soul beads, a cultivation material that only Nascent Soul cultivators could use.
With his last breath drained, Li Changshou's body trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if electricity had sprung from the void, and a smile appeared on his lips. "Hahaha, good!"
"Finally, it's done. The Nine Revolutions of Strange Qi is just one step away from the Nascent Soul stage."
In just half a month, his cultivation level skyrocketed, and Li Changshou felt that the road ahead was bright.
Just then, a furious shout suddenly came from outside.
"Nameless Taoist, get out here!"
The sudden sound startled Li Changshou, who frowned and looked outside.
After a few steps, I arrived outside the cave, where the island stretched out in a dark, oppressive expanse.
Hundreds of demon soldiers gathered in a tide, following behind a terrifying great demon.
Li Changshou's heart skipped a beat; he had already recognized the other party as a sea serpent.
Li Changshou used his escape technique and landed on the edge of the island in a few leaps.
Looking calmly at the other party, he said, "This Demon King, may I ask why you have come to my Nameless Island?"
The Blackwater Demon King's face was icy cold. "You killed my second brother, Blackwater Xuanye. Do you really think no one knows?"
Li Changshou's eyes flickered slightly. "They came so quickly, finding me in just half a month. My nameless island is tens of thousands of miles away from Jin Jingzi's cave."
"It seems the information network among aquatic creatures is far more terrifying than I imagined."
Li Changshou naturally denied it, "Hehe, this demon king has probably mistaken the person for someone else."
"I am a disciple of the Jie Sect."
"After attending the gathering of all the immortals, I returned to the island."
"Didn't you go and kill your second brother?"
"Does the Demon King have any evidence? If not, my disciples of the Jie Sect are not to be trifled with," Li Changshou said clearly, directly bringing up the background information to intimidate the other party.
