Demonic Demoness Training Project

On the other side, the Sumeru Dust and Sand Dharma Body raised its mountain-sized hand and slammed it down on Lu Li's head.

boom!

The two barely touched before Lu Li was blasted away.

Lu Li felt his blood and qi surging and his organs shifting. He activated the blood pump to suppress the surging blood and qi, while using the Life-Giving Box to heal his injuries. He then urged the Three Thousand Cloud Threads to fly forward.

What a joke! She had no intention of going head-to-head with that mountain of shit. A direct confrontation was just a pretense; she was simply going to be knocked away. That was her escape route. If she couldn't beat them, couldn't she at least run away?

"Mu Qingque, let's stop playing with him!"

Chapter 199 Breakthrough in the Face of Battle

"Mo Xiaowan, quickly get on my back!"

As she spoke, Mu Qingque patted her bottom, and then the mechanisms on her body clicked and changed, transforming into a mechanical wooden kite.

This mechanical wooden kite, which incorporates Mu Qingque's design, differs from the original mechanical wooden kite. If you look closely, you can still discern a humanoid shape...

Seeing this, Lu Li flew onto the bird and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration:

"What a magnificent transformation technique!"

"Hold on tight!"

The two soared into the sky and fled into the distance, with Hou Ze manipulating his Sumeru Dust and Sand Dharma Body into a sandstorm, closely following behind.

Mu Qingque's wings are strong and powerful, and even taken out alone, they are a decent four-turn puppet. Its speed is already quite good. With Lu Li activating the Three Thousand Cloud Threads and the Time Reversal Instrument slowing down the flow of time around it, the speed of Mu Qingque directly breaks through the sky.

However, the backtracking device has a drawback.

This artifact merely expands a cosmic domain, slowing down the flow of time within it. In essence, it does not change its own flow of time. Moreover, the coverage of the cosmic domain is limited; once the enemy exceeds this range, its speed will return to normal.

This was not apparent in previous encounters, but now that the two sides are engaged in a chase, their speed increases again whenever they create a certain distance and go beyond the boundaries of the cosmic realm.

The two sides maintained a certain distance, but they couldn't shake each other off. Coincidentally, Hou Ze also noticed this, so he stayed close to the edge of the territory and kept chasing after them.

“His Dharma body is not perfect, but it’s impressive that it can still function. We just don’t know how long it can last. If we keep dragging this out until his Dharma body collapses on its own, we should eventually be able to get rid of him.”

"But the time-travel device is about to give out..."

"What?"

"The time limit for each activation of the retrospective device is that it needs to cool down after the time is up, and the time is almost up now."

"Hiss—how much longer can you hold on?"

"Half an hour."

Lu Li fell into deep thought.

Is it a gamble to see the opponent's Dharma body collapse within half an hour? What if the opponent's Dharma body is still intact after half an hour?

Without the backtracking device, their speed was reduced by three times, making it easier for Hou Ze to catch up with them.

After the previous clash, Lu Li realized the gap between himself and his opponent. With the physical strength of a fifth-level puppet, he could still contend with the Sumeru Dust and Sand Dharma Body, but his chances of winning were not high.

Lu Li stopped activating the Reversal Heavenly Dipper Instrument and returned to his original form, his aura subsequently declining.

"What is Mo Xiaowan going to do..."

Lu Li only uttered two words.

"breakthrough!"

If he hadn't been trapped in the Sumeru Dust and Sand Realm and interfered with by the other party, he should have broken through in his post-breakthrough state. His premature breakout was purely out of necessity.

As long as he condenses the spiritual pivot with the uranium of the void, making it a fait accompli, and then activates the Reversal Heavenly Dipper Instrument, the spiritual pivot within his body will also change in the future and be greatly strengthened.

Only then will he be able to fight against the Sumeru Dust Sand Dharma Body.

However, while a breakthrough at the last minute may seem appealing, it is actually extremely risky. After weighing the pros and cons, Lu Li ultimately chose to make the breakthrough.

After returning to his original form, the three forces of extreme cold, yin energy, and immeasurable calamity reappeared within Lu Li's body. Even though the journey was somewhat bumpy, he quickly regained his balance thanks to his powerful divine sense and control.

The second step: Condensing the Elixir!

Those three forces flowed and circulated endlessly. They seemed effortless, but in reality, they required an extreme understanding of the properties of spiritual materials to condense and form a spiritual core.

The spiritual materials chosen for the first step of the Gold Infusion are often those that the cultivator is most familiar with and that are already present in their own body. The quality of the spiritual materials fused with will directly affect their future achievements.

For example, the extreme cold jade marrow and formless glaze that Lu Li chose are the main materials needed to refine the glaze bone, while the dark and lustrous stone is the auxiliary material needed to refine the Taiyin Palace and Taiyin Spirit Core.

As for choosing Guixu Uranium, it's because Lu Li has been deducing the Guixu Seal over the years, and his own body is being influenced by the Guixu Seal, gradually transforming into the Guixu Dao Body.

"This step is extremely difficult. Perhaps we should think of another way, especially since you've already fused with the Void Uranium..."

There's no need for that.

After saying that, Lu Li frowned and took out another uranium pill and inserted it into his body. Doing so meant that his transformation time would be reduced by one hour.

After drinking a cup of tea, Lu Li let out a long sigh of relief, and his spiritual power surged.

"It's done."

With the core condensation complete, the next step is—

The third step: transcending the tribulation!

At this moment, the spiritual core that Lu Li has condensed is merely a shell. Only after being baptized and tempered by the tribulation of lightning can it be called a true spiritual core. In the words of ancient cultivators, Lu Li's current state is also known as the pseudo-core realm.

Even if many open-source cultivators have all the spiritual materials they need and the ability to condense a spiritual core, they dare not attempt it lightly. Instead, they need to make many preparations in advance to deal with the tribulation.

"How much time does the retrospective device have left?"

"I can hold on for another hundred breaths."

"A hundred breaths..."

Lu Li looked up at the sky and saw dark clouds churning on the horizon, with lightning flashing within them, indicating that a tribulation of lightning was about to be brewing.

"At this rate, we won't make it in time! It's too slow! Let's fly upwards!"

"it is good."

At this moment, Hou Ze saw the strange phenomenon in the sky. He recognized it at a glance as the tribulation of breaking through to the Spirit Pivot Realm. He became even more certain that the other party was not the so-called Great Terror, but Duan Xuanyuan himself.

"It really is you! But why is it the Spirit Pivot Heavenly Tribulation? Although I don't know what methods you used to unleash the strength of the Creation Realm in a short time, you dare to try to break through to the Spirit Pivot Realm right under my nose. You simply don't take me seriously."

Having said that, the sandstorm transformed from the Sumeru Dust Dharma Body changed again. This sandstorm took root in the same place and at the same time extended towards the tribulation clouds on the horizon.

Wherever the sandstorm passed, mountains, rocks, and forests were reduced to dust and ash. After absorbing this dust and ash, the sandstorm grew stronger and higher, eventually reaching the earth and piercing the sky, emanating an aura that chilled people to the bone.

The saying goes, "Those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly."

Duan Xuanyuan had a comprehensive view of the situation and a clear understanding of the current circumstances. She also had her own goals and plans.

Lu Li's current divine sense realm is already at the upper grade of grade B. Once she reaches the Spirit Pivot realm, her divine sense is very likely to break through to grade A. With both being grade A divine senses, and the two being evenly matched, her plan to seize another body will also fail.

Although she didn't want Lu Li to succeed in breaking through, she also didn't want him to be defeated. She was worried that this body would really be destroyed by Hou Ze, and she was afraid that she would fall into Hou Ze's hands.

Having made up his mind, Duan Xuanyuan whispered in Lu Li's ear again.

"Stop being so stubborn! I know that with your accumulated knowledge, it's not difficult for you to overcome the Heavenly Tribulation, but that's only if no one interferes."

"You are now so focused on achieving success that you are rushing straight into the tribulation. Once Hou Ze arrives, you will surely die. Quickly activate your future body and hand it over to your master. I will deal with him!"

Chapter 200 Now this old woman lacks nothing [Requesting monthly votes]

"Don't even think about it! Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You're afraid that after I break through, my spiritual power will increase greatly and I'll be unable to take over the body. You're also afraid that I'll be defeated. So you want to tempt me to give up control of my body."

"you!"

Duan Xuanyuan had prepared two sets of answers, just waiting to see how Lu Li would respond and address the problem. But to her surprise, the other party was ruthless and saw right through her thoughts. Duan Xuanyuan swallowed her two sets of answers.

"I told you so! You, and that old geezer down there, you're all up to no good! Humph!"

"Are you absolutely determined to die together with your master?"

"Hmph, a lose-lose situation is better than a win-lose situation."

After saying that, Lu Li snorted coldly, his expression solemn. Mu Qingque carried him upwards, getting farther and farther away from the ground and closer and closer to the sky.

When he looked up at the sky, he saw that the sky was covered with clouds of calamity and lightning was surging endlessly.

When he looked down at the ground, he saw yellow sand swirling around him, and Hou Ze was relentlessly pursuing him.

When he looked inward, he saw only calm seas, but Lu Li knew that behind this tranquility, Duan Xuanyuan was hiding in some corner, harboring evil intentions and ready to make a move.

The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease. The obstacles one faces in cultivation and breakthroughs are never just natural disasters, but also man-made calamities.

The lightning tribulation is a natural disaster, while Hou Ze and Duan Xuanyuan are man-made disasters, and man-made disasters are often more terrifying than natural disasters.

At this moment, Duan Xuanyuan appeared in Lu Li's sea of ​​consciousness, throwing out a fist-sized mechanical device.

Lu Li immediately became alert and urged the pear tree to defend itself. Just as he was about to unleash the Thousand Refined Flowers technique, Duan Xuanyuan said:

"Wait a minute, this is a fourth-stage artifact—the [Dao Oath Machine]."

After he finished speaking, the Dao Oath Machine flew out of his sea of ​​consciousness and came into Lu Li's hand.

"As for what the Dao Shi Ji is, I think you should know. I won't waste my breath explaining, because you wouldn't believe it anyway. You have your own judgment."

Lu Li nodded. He did know what it was; there was an introduction to this artifact in his sea of ​​consciousness.

High-level cultivators typically don't carry all their wealth on their person, but rather deposit it in money shops. This leads to a series of activities, including stock trading and loans, which are all sources of daily cultivation funds for high-level cultivators.

However, the behavior of high-level cultivators is often difficult to control. In order to prevent high-level cultivators from defaulting on their debts, a means is needed to control their behavior.

Then, the Dao Oath Machine was born.

As long as the Dao Oath exists, cultivators who owe money must repay it, otherwise they will suffer a backlash. Lu Li has read extensively in sect scriptures, so these are all common sense.

Long ago, when Lu Li was still in Fengxiang City, the manager of a stamping workshop had tried to recruit her, but was worried that she would run away halfway, so the condition he offered was that she make a vow.

The only drawback of this item is its limitation on cultivation level. Once a cultivator's cultivation level exceeds the level corresponding to the Dao Oath Machine, the Dao Oath will become invalid.

The one in Lu Li's hand is a fourth-level Dao Oath Machine, which means it works on cultivators at or below the Heavenly Crafting Realm.

However, what Lu Li didn't know was that Duan Xuanyuan had taken advantage of a loophole in the Dao Oath mechanism. The reason was that the Dao Oath Duan Xuanyuan made was based on the physical body, and if it was violated, the physical body would be destroyed, but it did not affect the soul.

In her attempt to repair the puppet of Qingling, she made countless attempts, which resulted in a mountain of debt. With the repayment deadline fast approaching, and her body suffering from the backlash of fate years ago, she was aging rapidly and didn't have much time left. That's why she wanted to fake her death to collect insurance money and then possess another body to be reborn.

But man proposes, God disposes; all her schemes were ruined by a treacherous traitor.

"You are free to check, there is nothing wrong with this oath mechanism, but I advise you to hurry, there is not much time left."

Lu Li remained silent, activating the Spirit Diagram Instrument in an attempt to discern any flaws.

Feeling uneasy, Lu Li temporarily summoned his future self to assist the Four-Turn Spirit Chart Instrument in checking the Dao Oath Machine. The Dao Oath Machine was indeed a normal Dao Oath Machine, with no signs of tampering.

"Tell me, what oath do you wish to make with me?"

"As the spirit of the artifact, I will reside in your spirit core to help you deal with Hou Ze. During this period, if I do anything that is harmful to you, I will be instantly destroyed."

"What's the price? What price do I need to pay?"

"You help me reshape my physical body... to at least a fifth-stage puppet body."

"A fifth-stage physical body, hehehe, why don't you just go and rob it!"

"Hey, just because you can't do it now doesn't mean you can't do it in the future. I believe in you."

Duan Xuanyuan knew that even if she successfully possessed Lu Li's body now, all she would get would be a half-finished product, only able to occasionally unleash the power of the Creation Realm with the help of the Uranium Pill.

As long as this vow remains, she will eventually obtain a five-fold reincarnation body.

Furthermore, this disciple is extremely cunning, and it would be too risky for her to try to possess her. She still has the Uranium Pill in her possession. If she fails to defeat her in one blow and gives her the opportunity to activate the Reversal Heavenly Dipper Instrument, the two sides will fight to the death, and the final result will be that Hou Ze will benefit from it.

Every time her divine sense recovered a little, Lu Li's divine sense also rose a level, and the speed of progress was incredibly fast. In addition, the injury in the middle caused her plan to seize another body to be delayed again and again, eventually developing into the current situation.

Today, this kid... no, this girl has grown into someone who can rival her, no longer some junior who can be possessed at will.

When the risks far outweigh the benefits, her final choice is to compromise.

Both sides quickly formulated detailed rules for the Dao Oath. Lu Li only gave up one of the secondary cores of the Spirit Core, which was controlled by the other party, and its authority was far less than that of the main core.

All of this seemed complicated, but Duan Xuanyuan had a first-grade divine soul, and Lu Li had a second-grade superior divine soul, plus the aid of the Spirit Core. Therefore, they could complete it in just thirty breaths.

She quickly deduced three times whether there were any loopholes or traps in the Dao Oath using the Spirit Core.

When Elder Duan entered Dinghe, he immediately spoke through Lu Li's small mouth:

"Hehehehehe, this old woman has come back to life, hehehe... Shut up, you old thing."
