Hei Fengshen's infinite deduction to become a saint

The Jade Disc of Creation began to flicker again, this time for a full ten breaths.

This time, the brilliance of the Creation Jade Disc decreased by nearly half.

This contains the other eleven Dinghai Divine Pearls, the Heavenly and Earthly Essence obtained after refining the first layer of the Mysterious Restriction, the energy transformed from the essence, qi, and spirit of a True Immortal Beast and a powerful Earth Immortal.

Half of the information was consumed just from calculating one secret technique and some other information.

Li Changshou felt extremely heartbroken, and several pieces of information had already surfaced in his mind.

There are several paths to the growth of a witch's bloodline.

The first requirement is the secret cultivation method exclusive to the Wu clan – witchcraft.

There are two types of witchcraft: physical witchcraft and sorcery.

Body magic, forging the physical body and bloodline, making the body immortal and indestructible.

Eerie sorcery, communicating with the mysterious ways of heaven and earth, unleashing supernatural power.

However, after the war between the human emperors, Chi You, the only ancestral witch in the world who had cultivated both primordial spirit and witchcraft, was killed, and the remaining main force of the witch clan was almost completely wiped out.

Almost all of the witchcraft was destroyed, leaving only a few scattered fragments in the world.

Based on known information, these fragments may exist in the hands of the Human Emperor Dynasty, various religious sects, and remnants of the demon race.

The only one who could possibly have a complete lineage is Houtu Huangdiqi in the cycle of reincarnation, who is the primordial spirit of the ancestral witch of the witch clan.

The one who holds a position comparable to a saint in the cycle of reincarnation is the only remaining powerful being of the Witch Clan, but without the bloodline of the Witch Clan, he cannot escape the cycle of reincarnation.

The second path is based on Li Changshou's memory of the myths and legends of Blue Star, combined with all known information in this world.

After the ancient war between witches and demons, the essence and blood of ancestral witches were scattered throughout the world. Based on known information, it is deduced that Yu Yuan, the Immortal of One Qi (there are two Immortals of One Qi, Yu Yuan and Ma Yuan, in the Investiture of the Gods), possessed a Blood-Transforming Divine Blade.

This sword was forged by him, but there is a 70% probability that the materials used were transformed from the essence and blood of an ancient ancestral witch.

The blood essence of the Ancestral Witch is tainted by the turbid energy of heaven and earth, making it the most turbid and dangerous power in the world. Once it touches the soul, anyone below the Great Luo level will surely die. The only antidote that can cure it is the three antidotes in Yu Yuan's possession.

These three antidotes were made from a wisp of ancestral witch essence that had dissipated during the forging of the Blood Transformation Divine Blade, and only they could dispel the turbid qi of those afflicted by the blade.

Yu Yuan was unaware of the turbid air of heaven and earth and mistakenly thought it was a deadly poison, which is why it was named the Blood-Transforming Divine Blade.

The Third Road

During the war between the human emperors, Chi You was defeated, but he had already mastered a special and unorthodox method – immortality.

He was later torn apart by five horses, and his limbs and torso were buried at the four pillars of heaven and earth.

His head was sealed in the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum, never to be reincarnated.

The fourth road

When Nuwa mended the sky in Beiju Luzhou, she used the four limbs of a black tortoise to make pillars of heaven. The tortoise's corpse was thrown here, and after it decayed, the entire Beiju Luzhou became shrouded in poisonous fog, a place where poisonous insects and snakes gathered.

In the ancient war between the witches and demons, the heavens and earth shattered. One branch of the witch clan ended up here. During the struggle for the human emperor, some of the surviving witches fled to this place, using poisonous fog to conceal themselves. They may possess the bloodline of a great witch and the inheritance of cultivation within them.

Note: All four paths have a chance to increase witch blood, but once witch blood increases to a certain limit, turbid energy will swirl around it. This is the inherent cause and effect of witch path, which will affect immortal path cultivation.

Looking at the four pieces of information in his mind, Li Changshou felt a sense of gravity.

"The first one can be ruled out directly. It's impossible to find it. What I have are just some random fragments. Even the Jade Disc of Creation can't deduce the complete cultivation method."

"Secondly, Yu Yuan could think of a way to exchange treasures with him, since he is also a cultivator of the Jie Sect."

"The third option is not even worth considering. We don't even know if the Fire Cloud Cave exists in this world. If it does, and the Three Sovereigns are still alive, going to their tombs would be suicide."

"The Four Divine Pillars are Nuwa's territory. If I were to touch them, I might just die."

"The fourth path, Beiju Luzhou, is something we could consider."

"However, it is to be expected that cultivating witch blood will affect the path to immortality."

"The Witch Clan is not forbidden from cultivating their primordial spirit, but they must achieve a balance."

"As long as we maintain our balance, there shouldn't be any major problems, but our cultivation progress will definitely be slowed down."

His eyes brightened slightly. "Once I've passed the True Immortal Tribulation, I'll go see this Qi Immortal, Yu Yuan."

He had to get his hands on this sword before the Investiture of the Gods war even began.

Otherwise, once the great calamity begins, it will be difficult to obtain this knife again.

He has a new goal for the future.

"Now, let's prepare for the tribulation!"

Silently sitting cross-legged, the "Innate Benevolent Thoughts Blood God Lotus Mantra" rose in his heart.

Silently reciting the divine incantation, his mind gradually emptied, and the benevolent thoughts in his fundamental consciousness gathered towards the space between his brows.

The crimson blood of the sorcerer flickering in his heart shimmered with a wondrous power, silently converging into his primordial spirit.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Changshou's primordial spirit left his body, and an eighth-grade blood-red lotus flower appeared between his eyebrows.

This blood-red lotus is extremely mysterious, with countless blood-red runes flashing on it, yet the entire lotus is incredibly clear, like a crystal.

A faint white light floated above the blood-red lotus, which was the benevolent thought of Li Changshou's fundamental consciousness.

Beneath the blood-red lotus was a circle of black water, within which seemed to teem with countless evil thoughts, including all his greed, delusion, and anger.

There were also some unknown and eerie messages, as if they were alive, spreading out in countless threads, constantly trying to pierce the blood-red lotus.

But the crimson lotus bloomed under the hazy moonlight, pushing back these black lines one by one.

The calming lotus suppressed the pool of evil thoughts, making the good thoughts appear even purer. Li Changshou could feel that the influence of the evil thoughts on him had decreased by three times.

He felt a slight sense of relief. "Finally, it's done. Next, I need to trigger the tribulation and transcend it to become an immortal."

His primordial spirit flashed and disappeared into his body. Li Changshou got up and strode out of the cave.

His body was brimming with magical power, and the two great spells had long been filled with his blood, energy, and soul, reaching their peak state.

He took a few steps to reach the center of the island, and the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl silently flew out of his body, landing in the twelve surrounding locations and concealing all traces.

Holding the Annihilation Sword and the Soul-Severing Sword, I look up at the sky and take a deep breath!

The aura of the perfected Nine Transformations of the Primordial Spirit soared into the sky, instantly resonating with the heavens and earth.

Dark clouds filled the sky, and flashes of lightning streaked across the horizon.

In this world, those who transform into deities and ascend to become true immortals must endure forty-nine tribulations, a total of thirty-six lightning strikes; those who fail to overcome them die on the spot.

Rumble.

A series of violent thunderclaps followed without any pause, and a dark red bolt of lightning crashed down.

There are countless lightning tribulations in the world, and each type of lightning tribulation has a different effect.

Li Changshou recognized his tribulation at a glance; it was the most powerful type of the first stage of the Forty-Nine Tribulation – the Demon-Slaying Divine Lightning.

Only those with extremely heavy karmic burdens will suffer this kind of lightning, and will be envied by Heaven and Earth.

Rumble.

Li Changshou narrowed his eyes, and the Annihilation Sword in his hand rose into the air, slashing at the falling lightning.

The lightning and the sword light collided.

Lightning contains a trace of the unpredictable forces of heaven and earth. Ordinary cultivators, without magical treasures to protect them, mostly have to use various magical artifacts and spells to consume their energy in order to survive this tribulation blessed by the unpredictable forces of lightning.

But when faced with a true magic weapon, the first bolt of lightning was easily shattered.

Only a few faint, dark red lightning particles fell, like a shower of light.

His actions seemed to provoke the tribulation lightning, and a vast killing intent descended, with a second demon-slaying lightning bolt striking down once more.

Li Changshou simply controlled the Annihilation Sword to continuously extinguish the falling lightning.

The second, the third, the fourth... the ninth!

The first layer of the Four-Nine Thunder Tribulation was completely destroyed, demonstrating the full power of the magical treasure.

Li Changshou was bathed in a shower of electric particles, which seemed to be attracted and rushed into his body, frantically moving around and tempering his primordial spirit and physical body.

At the same time, a ball of black flame was approaching from afar, and within it was the figure of the Immortal Ma Yuan.
