What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

After all, the Demon Lord possesses two flawless immortal artifacts and countless unparalleled divine skills.

If they were to perish here, or be captured by alien beings, it would be a tremendous loss to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Now many people know that a wooden box appeared outside the Imperial Pass, and the alien creatures went mad trying to get it, but it was brought back by Huang.

Therefore, a group of alien beings, filled with resentment, turned their attention to the ancient land of the immortals, where a spirit-possessed immortal corpse had appeared, along with traces of the Demon Lord.

They wanted to capture the Demon Lord and exchange him for the wooden crate.

"Breaking news! Breaking news! The Demon Lord has slaughtered powerful enemies from other realms, including members of royal and imperial families. Furthermore, two supreme beings from other realms have perished in the ancient lands of the immortals!"

"Now, more than ten supreme beings from other realms have descended outside the Imperial Pass, seemingly hunting down someone. The Grand Elder and Emperor Xu have both emerged from seclusion. I wonder if a great war will break out!"

At this moment, a secret report came from someone who had just returned from beyond the Great Wall, causing a huge sensation.

During the hunt in the alien realm, many young experts perished. Now, the Demon Lord has hunted down experts from the royal and imperial families, which has excited many passionate young people in the Imperial Pass, who are cheering for it.

However, when they heard that more than a dozen supreme-level experts from other realms had arrived outside the Imperial Pass, the crowd couldn't help but feel panicked.

"What's there to be afraid of? Immortals can't cross the Heavenly Abyss, and as for Supreme-level experts, our realm has Senior Meng. Why should we be afraid of them?" someone said.

"Speaking of which, whose handiwork was it that two supreme beings from another realm died in the ancient lands of the immortals? Could it be that this is the reason why more than a dozen supreme beings from another realm chased them all the way to the border?"

"I don't know, but it's very likely!"

The crowd discussed it heatedly, speculating which expert from the Imperial Pass was responsible.

"Hey, someone's coming!"

Everyone looked toward the square, where there was a huge altar.

Whether leaving or entering the city, one must undergo close investigation and examination by the city's magic array, and may even be searched for for life marks to ensure the safety of the Imperial Pass.

Therefore, no matter how many people pass through at once, it will take a certain amount of time.

"Huh? Isn't that the Demon Lord's Starfall Mountain?"

"Ah, am I seeing things? The Demon Lord... he's actually back!"

At the Wuliang Gate, around the altar in the plaza, a group of people screamed in disbelief, unable to believe what they were seeing.

At the summit of Starfall Mountain, a young man stood there, clad in dark immortal gold armor, his aura as deep as the abyss, emanating a faint demonic power, like a demon god returning.

Behind Starfall Mountain, there was a silver celestial bird whose body was bound by the Great Dao Divine Chains, firmly locked to Starfall Mountain, unable to move.

Many people rubbed their eyes, making sure they weren't seeing things, and cheered loudly.

"My god, the Demon Lord is amazing! He actually led a spirit-possessed immortal corpse back through the blockade of the alien army!"

"Even with the alien army besieging the ancient land of the immortals and several supreme beings overseeing it, they still couldn't stop the Demon Lord's advance?"

Soon, the news spread rapidly within the capital, stirring up public outrage.

However, Qi Shi'an was even faster. The large stars surrounding Xingyun Mountain twinkled, spreading out a purple-gold road. He left this place with the spirit corpse and headed straight for the mountain range of the Xuanyuan tribe.

"A miracle! The Demon Lord has returned! He didn't perish in this desolate wasteland; he even brought back a sentient immortal corpse!"

"Could it be that the deaths of the two supreme beings from the other realm in the old land are related to the little devil?"

These news were sensational, shaking the Imperial Pass and causing a great shock to all sides. Everyone now knew who the dozen or so supreme beings from the foreign lands were hunting down.

Originally, it was thought that the Demon Lord was trapped in a desperate situation and his chances of survival were slim. Unexpectedly, he not only fought his way out alive, but also dealt a heavy blow to the foreign lands with his amazing achievements.

The young experts of the royal and imperial families stained the secret land with blood, and two supreme beings died in bloodshed. This even attracted more than ten supreme beings from other realms to disregard their dignity and chase them all the way to the outside of the imperial pass.

This was not a hasty retreat, but rather a calm retreat into the pass, imbued with an aura of ruthlessness.

Many young cultivators clenched their fists, their blood boiling, wishing they could personally participate in the battle.

In an instant, the entire Imperial Pass was in an uproar. Although the city was vast and boundless, the news spread and the whole city was in an uproar.

This is a major event!

Because the Demon Lord had stayed in the ancient land of immortals for a long time, he must have obtained some good things, and he even brought back a spirit-communicating immortal corpse right under the noses of so many supreme beings from other realms.

This undoubtedly caught the attention of many forces. When Huang brought back a wooden box, many important figures studied it for a long time.

Without exception, none of them could discover the strangeness of the wooden box, nor could they open it. In the end, due to the power of the Grand Elder, they returned it to Huang.

This time, however, the Demon Lord brought back a spirit-possessed immortal corpse. Even though it had died once, its body was still an immortal body and must contain immortal laws.

If one can comprehend the secrets of this path, perhaps one can take the final step and become an immortal!

Chapter 371 Seed of Demonic Resentment

A purple-gold divine rainbow streaked across the sky, and the purple-gold road stretched all the way into the Xuanyuan tribe.

A black figure descended from the mountain peak, and the great star surrounding Starfall Mountain lost its brilliance.

The ethereal immortal corpse was bound by the chains of the Great Dao, its empty eyes gleaming with silver light, its immortal body covered in wounds, and the flowing blood rising with wisps of immortal energy, mysterious and holy.

Many members of the Xuanyuan tribe, upon seeing this from afar, showed joy on their faces.

A little girl with pigtails skipped and jumped as she ran to Qi Shi'an, beaming with joy: "Big brother, you're finally back!"

Qi Shi'an stroked her little head and said softly with a smile, "During my absence, have you been cultivating diligently?"

"Of course, we've been practicing diligently every day, and now everyone can use some powerful supernatural abilities."

Qi Shi'an had been gone for several days, and the children all looked much stronger and full of energy.

"Master, what species is this big silver bird you brought back? It looks delicious!"

Xuanyuan Jingtian's eyes gleamed as he surveyed the spirit corpse, already having a mental list of how to cook it to make it delicious.

"You can't eat this, or the big shots in the capital will be angry," Qi Shi'an explained with a smile. "Besides, one piece of meat from this creature is enough to burst your skinny little body."

"Ah, that's scary? Then I'll just stick to eating the wild game from the mountains." Xuan Yuan Jing Tian's heart skipped a beat.

"If anyone comes looking for me later, take them to the outside of my cave."

After Qi Shi'an finished speaking, he pulled the spirit-communicating immortal corpse and walked quickly towards the cave. He wanted to control this immortal bird before the important figures from the Imperial Pass arrived.

"Hmm, a celestial corpse, refining it into a demonic corpse would be time-consuming and resource-intensive, but if it's not refined, it's uncontrollable..."

Inside the cave, Qi Shi'an stared at the celestial bird, pacing back and forth, trying to find a way to satisfy both sides.

Although this psychic immortal corpse was injured by the supreme being from another realm, there was still a trace of immortal energy flowing through its body, and its injuries were slowly healing.

If left unchecked, they will eventually regain their fighting strength, making them even more difficult to suppress.

Qi Shi'an sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes slightly closed, and mentally went through all the Taoist methods related to the primordial spirit.

"How about we use the primordial spirit of a creature from another realm to refine a seed of demonic resentment, and use their dark power and boundless grudges to control the celestial bird!"

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into his mind, and he thought of a method that he felt was highly feasible.

The next moment, he summoned the Demon Storage Bag. The instant he opened the bag, a chilling wind blew out, and countless alien spirits floated out, baring their fangs and claws, emitting terrifying sound waves, like vengeful ghosts.

These were all beings he had refined. Although their primordial spirits were forever silenced, their resentment and dark power had not dissipated.

They were all released at this moment, precisely to be refined into seeds of demonic resentment!

Qi Shi'an formed hand seals, and strange runes emanated from his body. Each one seemed to resonate with the Great Dao. As the chanting of scriptures rang out, the strange runes surged within the cave, causing the stone walls to shed dust.

This is a secret technique deduced from the sealing runes on the Execution Platform. He has been studying it ever since the Execution Platform was sealed by the three little figures sitting on the Flower of the Great Dao with mysterious scriptures.

At this moment, it is used to refine the demon seed, which has a miraculous effect. The mysterious scripture that can seal the Execution Platform can definitely suppress the spirit corpse!

boom!

At this moment, light emanated from between his brows, and a small figure appeared on his forehead, its entire body crystalline, radiating a holy yet demonic light, incomparably eerie.

The spirit embryo flew towards the psychic immortal corpse, sat cross-legged on its crown, formed hand seals, and chanted scriptures. The dense scriptures materialized into a pitch-black vortex, swallowing all the alien primordial spirits into it.

Although those primordial spirits have long since vanished, they still contain endless resentment and dark power from their lives. Now, ignited by the scriptures, they emit mournful cries, like thousands of vengeful ghosts howling.

boom!

Sensing the threat, the ethereal corpse's immortal energy circulated autonomously, radiating boundless immortal brilliance, leaping like flames, attempting to drive away the spiritual embryo that was perched above its head.

One after another, divine chains of order shot out from the body, carrying a holy aura of immortality, and strangled the spiritual embryo.

Qi Shi'an's true form trembled violently, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, but he quickly regained his composure.

hum!

At the same time, the hand seals in the spirit embryo's hands changed, and the chanting suddenly rose in pitch, the Daoist sound booming like the sound of hell, shattering all the chains of order.

The fragments of the divine chain turned into specks of silver light, which were swallowed by the dark vortex.

The Seed of Demonic Resentment absorbed the fragments of the Divine Chain, becoming increasingly solid. Strange patterns appeared around it, and wisps of demonic energy overflowed, exuding a sacred yet evil aura that was quite terrifying.

As the demonic flames burned ever brighter, resentment and dark power were forcibly melted and compressed, eventually condensing into a black seed the size of a fingernail, emanating demonic energy and shimmering with an evil glow.

Faintly visible, countless tiny faces struggled and roared within the seed, emanating an eerie aura that even the heavens and earth seemed to loathe.

This is the embryonic form of the seed of demonic resentment!

"town!"

The next moment, Qi Shi'an used his fingers as a brush to draw sealing incantations in the air. These were the seals on the Execution Platform, and he had now manifested the first four.

Splash!

In an instant, the incantation burst forth with dazzling divine light, transforming into chain after chain of divine chains. Accompanied by supreme sealing power, they firmly imprisoned the celestial bird, rendering it unable to move.

Immediately afterwards, the spirit embryo moved, landing directly on the crown of the spirit corpse. The power of the Execution Platform empowered its arm, and with one palm it sliced ​​open the immortal body. Then it grabbed the demon seed and inserted it into the immortal bird's body.

boom!

The moment the spirit embryo entered the body, the immortal bird suddenly burst out with dazzling silver light, and the immortal aura surged and churned within the body like a raging sea, impacting the spirit embryo.

"I won't let you succeed!"

With a soft shout, the spirit embryo directly spat out a celestial river, transforming into countless spirit embryo clones that, like mercury spilling onto the ground, rampaged through the limbs and bones of the immortal bird.

The celestial bird, like a trapped beast, unleashed a burst of silver light, attempting to evaporate these clones.

However, each shattered clone transforms into hundreds or thousands of drops of liquid, seeping into the bones and flesh.

The celestial bird trembled violently, emitting a silent cry. The spiritual embryo traveled through the blood vessels into the heart, using its palm as a blade to cleave open a gash, and then planted the demonic seed within.

boom!

In an instant, the seed of demonic resentment erupted, and countless wailing faces broke free from the seed, spreading like black particles to every part of the body.

The resentment of those alien primordial spirits that had been refined exuded a terrifying corrosive power, gradually blackening the silvery radiance of the immortal path.

The more the celestial bird struggled, the tighter the demonic chains tightened, eventually permeating its entire body and becoming omnipresent.

In an instant, the celestial bird's body trembled, the silver light slowly faded, and its body was occupied by demonic energy. A dark light was reflected in its originally empty eyes.

Qi Shi'an withdrew the spiritual embryo, slowly opened his eyes, and let out a long breath.

The seed of demonic resentment has been implanted into the heart of the immortal bird. Although it is only in its nascent stage, it will eventually be completely under its control as time goes by.

"From this day forward, you will be the first demon general under my command!"

Qi Shi'an smiled slightly; his risky actions had finally paid off.

Even if a powerful figure from the capital city takes it away, he cannot remove the seed of demonic resentment within it. When it blossoms and bears fruit, that will be the day he completely controls it!

At that time, it would not dare to go east or west, and its life or death would be in the hands of Qi Shi'an.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside the cave, and Xuan Yuan Jingtian's voice rang out: "Master, someone is coming!"

Qi Shi'an stood up, stroked the feathers of the spirit corpse, and said in a low voice, "It seems you will be taken away for a while, but they won't be able to understand anything, and they will return to my side sooner or later."

He revealed a wicked smile, quite demonic, as he channeled the immortal aura of this celestial bird into the demonic seed, nourishing its growth.

Now, only a very small amount of immortal energy flows within the flesh and blood of the immortal bird, so even if it were to be comprehended by a Supreme Realm expert, it would be unable to take the final step.

"Wang Changsheng, I'm sure you won't miss this spiritual immortal corpse. Let me see if you've comprehended the laws of immortality or the demonic laws within the demonic seed," Qi Shi'an muttered to himself.

He used these methods to prevent the Wang and Jin families, two great families of immortality, from making any underhanded moves.

If Wang Changsheng seizes this opportunity to intervene and obtain the celestial bird's enlightenment, he will unleash the power of the demonic seed. The demonic energy will then silently and slowly infiltrate Wang Changsheng's body, and at that point…

Qi Shi'an walked out of the cave, pulling the spirit corpse with him, and came to the outside world.

This caused a sensation. Some people looked at the spirit corpse behind him and were quite surprised. The spirit corpse was so obedient. Could it have been tamed?

"This is the spirit corpse?"

Some people's voices trembled, while others had already gathered around, all wanting to see what was so strange about it.

Qi Shi'an did not stop them; on the contrary, he was very generous and allowed everyone to take a closer look. In any case, this spirit-infused immortal corpse had already been implanted with a demonic seed and had become his possession.
