The Hehuan Sect cultivates alchemy; my senior sister helps me refine alchemy throughout the world.

The succubus clearly hadn't expected him to knock her to the ground. Just as she was about to forcefully push Shen Yifei away, a sharp pain suddenly shot through her neck!

After Shen Yifei pounced on the succubus, he didn't hesitate and immediately started biting her; his only weapon right now was his teeth!

He bit down on her neck, his teeth sinking into her flesh, and green demonic blood gushed into her mouth. It tasted sweet, like biting into a piece of bloody honey.

The succubus let out a piercing scream, sharp as a knife, which made Shen Yifei's eardrums ache.

Shen Yifei refused to admit it, even under duress.

He bit into a piece of flesh on her neck, then yanked his head back, tearing off a piece with a "rip".

The succubus convulsed in pain, kicking her legs wildly on the ground, sending pebbles flying everywhere.

With the piece of meat in his mouth, Shen Yifei found it incredibly sweet and delicious. He chewed it twice and swallowed it.

As the demon flesh entered his stomach, the mist in his lower abdomen exploded with a "boom," burning him like firewood doused with oil, making his whole body hot. His consciousness became somewhat blurred, and he only felt that the woman in front of him was a delicious meal!

"You...you ate my flesh?" The banshee's voice trembled, too terrified to even resist!

Shen Yifei didn't answer. He lowered his head and bit her again. This time he bit her chest, and the succubus screamed again, her voice distorted.

He tore off a piece of meat, chewed it twice, and then swallowed it!

"What...what exactly are you?" she asked, her voice trembling with tears.

Shen Yifei raised his head, his mouth full of green blood. He grinned, a smile that was indescribably sinister and terrifying. "I'm just a little guy!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and took another bite.

The bite tore a large chunk of flesh from her shoulder. The succubus could no longer scream; she could only tremble and make "hoarse" sounds.

As Shen Yifei chewed the meat, he felt the mist in his lower abdomen growing thicker and thicker, like a compressed cloud churning and surging within his dantian.

He knew it was the demon blood and flesh at work, but he couldn't stop. The demon flesh entered his stomach like a fire, burning him until he was delirious, leaving only the most primal desire—to eat.

He lay on top of the banshee, biting her repeatedly. Shoulders, chest, neck, arms... leaving the banshee's upper body riddled with holes.

The banshee was covered in blood, green blood smeared all over her body.

She stopped struggling and just lay on the ground, her eyes half-open and half-closed, emitting faint breaths.

Shen Yifei took a bite, with a piece of meat still in his mouth, chewed it twice, and then suddenly stopped.

He looked down at the banshee; her chest was still rising and falling, but very faintly.

Apart from that stunningly beautiful face, her entire body is simply unbearable to look at!

Shen Yifei felt the mist surging within his dantian, as if he were about to break through!

He lifted the cauldron and smashed it towards the female demon. This female demon tasted really good, and it could also improve his cultivation. He could save it and enjoy it slowly later!

A flash of red light, and the banshee vanished from the riverbank, leaving no trace of blood. Shen Yifei lay on the ground, panting heavily, every part of his body aching.

He wandered around in the woods and found a cave. The cave wasn't deep, only about three or four zhang (approximately 10-13 meters), but the entrance was narrow while the inside was wide. He gathered firewood, lit a fire, and then moved several large stones to block the entrance.

He sat by the fire, took off all his tattered clothes, revealing his upper body covered in scars.

Five claw marks were on its back, and then from its left shoulder to its right rib, the skin and flesh were torn and rolled up, but the demonic aura had disappeared. It was unknown whether this was because it had eaten the flesh of a female demon.

The injury isn't fatal, but I need to quickly digest the power accumulating in my dantian for a breakthrough! That power seems to be just a little bit lacking!

Shen Yifei took out a top-grade Qi Gathering Pill and swallowed it in one gulp!

The cloud of mist in his dantian exploded with a "boom," rampaging through his body, causing numbness and throbbing pain in his meridians.

He quickly activated the "Yin Yang Absorption Technique" to guide the spiritual energy to circulate in his meridians.

The spiritual energy circulated faster and faster, becoming increasingly abundant. The mist in the dantian began to condense, changing from a gaseous state to a liquid state, gathering drop by drop in the dantian.

Mid-stage Foundation Establishment!

From the early to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, others would have to cultivate for at least three to five years, but for him it was just a matter of eating a meal!

Shen Yifei opened his eyes. The fire in the cave was almost out, with only a few embers still glowing a dark red light.

He was sticky all over, covered in sweat, and the wounds on his back and chest had scabbed over. They were still a little painful when he moved, but they no longer affected his mobility.

He clenched his fist and felt that the liquid spiritual energy in his dantian was more than twice as thick as before.

With a thought, a flame appeared in his palm, its color changing from red to orange, and it burned even hotter and more fiercely.

"Damn it, this demon meat really works." Shen Yifei muttered, then recalled the bloody mess he had made of the female demon, and his stomach churned. He wondered if he was just tired of eating it.

He took out the Cauldron of All Things and probed it with his consciousness. In the hazy space, the female demon lay in the very center.

However, when he saw the female demon, Shen Yifei was stunned.

The succubus was no longer a bloody mess; she was now clean and free of any wounds.

His skin was so white it seemed to glow, his chest rose and fell slightly, his breathing was steady, and his face even had a touch of color. He lay there motionless.

"This cauldron can even repair itself?" Shen Yifei muttered, then looked at it more closely.

The wounds he had inflicted on the banshee's neck, shoulders, and chest had all vanished without a trace, leaving not even a scar. Her skin was smooth and intact, as if nothing had ever happened.

He tried channeling some spiritual energy into the cauldron, hoping to refine her. The moment flames appeared inside, the demoness moved.

She frowned, let out a soft groan, turned over, and remained still.

Shen Yifei quickly put out the fire.

Looking at such a stunning beauty, he hesitated to make a move.

Furthermore, the fact that the female demon could automatically regenerate inside the cauldron—was it a function of the cauldron itself, or was it the female demon's own ability?

We still don't understand this; we need to study this banshee more thoroughly.

The next morning, Shen Yifei crawled out of the cave. The wounds on his back and chest had almost healed, leaving only a few faint red marks.

Shen Yifei was quite surprised at how quickly his injuries had healed. However, he had eaten demon meat, taken healing medicine, and consumed a top-grade Qi-gathering pill yesterday, and he wondered what was working behind it all.

He packed his things, checked the direction, and continued deeper into the secret realm.

He walked for a whole morning, encountering several more demonic beasts along the way, all of them first or second tier. He didn't care about them anymore and took detours, too lazy to waste his energy.

And so, he wandered aimlessly through the secret realm for three days. Apart from demonic beasts, he saw no immortal herbs or spiritual medicines, and not even a single cultivator who had entered. It was a far cry from the great opportunity he had expected.

He imprisoned the female demon in the Cauldron of All Things, and never wanted to refine her.

It's not that I'm soft-hearted; I just want to see if I can win her over, since she might be useful in the future.

The key is how to win her over!
