Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 200 Earthly Fiend Divine Power [Undying Demon Soul Body]

This is the refining power of the Taotie Divine Power!

Its domineering, powerful, and all-consuming nature endows it with the ultimate refining power of its class, making it capable of digesting anything in the world.

The same applies to the Devouring Divine Power.

Having reached the level of mastery in supernatural abilities, Gu Qing found refining sixth-grade spiritual objects relatively easy. By borrowing the power of high-quality spiritual objects, he could easily break through lower-level realms, making him virtually invincible!

At the same time, the Burning Gold Fire, which remained in the middle dantian, rose along the marrow path, and the fully released flame power cleansed Gu Qing's physique once again.

Without anyone noticing, the door to advancing from the Fire Spirit Profound Body to the True Flame Treasure Body was opened, and the progress instantly reached 5%.

This is probably feedback from Chiwutu.

Although this method is a cultivation technique for refining the spirit, it can also enhance a cultivator's natural talent in the fire path.

Qianyang Pregnant Flame Lord, this is an explosive growth of divine consciousness power.

The main body of the Burning Gold Flame is the fourth-grade Burning Gold Immortal Flame.

Although the offspring lost its unlimited growth potential, it still carried some of the immortal flame laws of the main body. In the end, it was completely digested by Gu Qing and sank into the Heavenly Heart Ancestral Aperture, adding bricks and tiles to his fire law.

The fire appears to have disappeared, but that is not actually the case.

Instead, it completely became a characteristic of Gu Qing's magic power, thanks to his complete understanding and comprehension of the Burning Gold Fire! This allowed his magic power to transform into flames, which were the Burning Gold Fire.

It became his foundation and basis, rather than a means of protecting the Dao or refining weapons, thus fundamentally changing his approach.

This road was discovered purely by accident.

This gave Gu Qing more ideas and thoughts, and he focused his attention on the Ten Thousand Serpent Poison Flame. If he could replicate it, wouldn't he be able to improve his understanding of the Fire Dao by using the Dao of Devouring?
It's like a shortcut.

Aside from the unexpected gains, Gu Qing's next move was what he aimed for.

The strengthening of one's spiritual consciousness means that the upper limit of one's life soul's endurance has been raised to another level, and there will be no more restrictions on the improvement of one's cultivation.

The Crimson Sky Tower flew out from the Qi Sea, covering Gu Qing and completely concealing the changes to come.

He didn't want Jiang Yuan and the others to know about the process of refining the demonic soul and condensing the earthly evil divine power. After all, breaking through to the seventh rank at the age of seventy was already top-notch talent, and going any faster would inevitably arouse jealousy.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

This doesn't match what he's usually shown.

The process of refining the seven souls was accelerating. Outside the Crimson Cloud Tower, the three of them couldn't help but worry as they watched the shattered gold divine sand still pouring into it.

Tai Kangxuan: "Isn't Fellow Daoist Gu's move too reckless? Regardless of the danger, such a large-scale absorption of Shattered Gold Divine Sand will surely alert the Golden Sand Flood Dragon."

Lian Feng: "That's right. The Shattered Gold Divine Sand was originally gathered by him using a demonic treasure. A significant reduction in it will definitely cause problems."

Jiang Yuan: "Focus on protecting the Dharma. There are other arrangements for the evil dragon and for young friend Gu, so you don't need to worry."

…………

…………

Deep within the underground river system of Jinsha.

This place was originally a dark and stagnant land, where a large amount of water-related spiritual energy accumulated and settled over many years, eventually forming a spirit stone vein.

At its core, even higher-grade spirit crystals will condense. A single spirit crystal is equivalent to all the mana accumulated in the body of a low-grade seventh-rank cultivator, and can be used to activate giant formations, war artifacts, and so on.

Renewable strategic resources belonging to the cultivation world are rare and almost never put into circulation.

now.

A sixth-grade demonic treasure shaped like a yellow gourd was trembling, the spirit crystals embedded in it were rapidly dimming, and grains of golden divine sand floated out of the gourd's mouth, rushing upwards.

Driven by instinct and pre-set expectations, it is making up for the lack of fragmented gold flow.

A golden carp guarding the spot immediately cried out upon seeing this.

"Oh no, oh no!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

The inscription "King's Mansion of the Golden Sand Dragon" on the underground river palace reveals the wild ambitions in his heart.

Leopard Chong and Hu Meiniang are guests in the Water Mansion.

The one at the head was a black, evil dragon with two straight, piercing horns on its head and a third eye between its eyebrows. It was drinking and making merry in human form.

Leopard Chong subtly gestured to Hu Meiniang, who immediately understood.

She approached the black dragon, using the great evil as bait, and said in a charmingly naive tone.

"Your Majesty, this batch of goods I brought must fetch a good price."

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Hu works for the Chenxing Crocodile Clan, so the price will naturally be higher."

"How about this... I'll take a loss and buy this batch of goods at 30% above the market price? But... young lady, you'd better bring something of real quality."

"I can roughly guess what Your Majesty is thinking."

"Butler Leopard, you speak."

With her slender hand tracing the black dragon's cheek, Hu Meiniang left room for imagination with a charming air, and with an air of indifference, quickly arrived at the entrance of the cave.

This made the black dragon's heart skip a beat, feeling that his years of perseverance had finally paid off. He wanted a treasure to break through to the sixth-grade demon king realm!

This decision was made from the very beginning when they first pledged allegiance to the powerful demon clans.

Back then, he was enlightened and became a demon in the Jinsha River. He was worshipped by a group of mortal villages and cultivated peacefully for hundreds of years in the name of the river god, relying on his intelligence and self-control.

His origins were those of the lowest-ranking wild demons, without any clan, born in human territory—a truly hellish start.

Fortunately, his bloodline mutated, turning him into a three-eyed demon dragon. His third eye gave him the ability to see through illusions and perceive the subtle details, and he could also release penetrating divine light to break through most formations and restrictions.

It was only then that it slowly began to develop.

However, lacking both inheritance and foundation, and without any power, he must rely on the Demon King clan to break through to the sixth rank.

If he's willing to marry into the family, that would be fine.

However, he harbored the idea of ​​going against the current to the East Sea and joining the True Dragon Clan, so he kept delaying until today. Leopard Chong spoke only after seeing Hu Meiniang leave.

"Your Majesty, there are two paths for the demon race to break through to the sixth rank."

"One method relies on bloodline, using body-refining techniques to purify the bloodline and drive the improvement of one's realm, naturally breaking through the shackles. This is also the path taken by the vast majority of demon cultivators."

The black dragon nodded, its expression somewhat gloomy.

"I know, but the breakthrough of the Flood Dragon clan is different. It requires bloodline evolution to achieve this. To transform from a Flood Dragon body into a true dragon, a Dragon Transformation Tribulation will descend..."

Moreover, he needed the blood of a true dragon or a rare treasure containing dragon energy, but he had neither. Even his methods of acquiring resources in the demon realm were controlled.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten involved with human cultivators and engaged in smuggling; they were forced into it.

"Your Majesty, do not be anxious. The second method is to cultivate the Heavenly Demon Path created by the Demon Ancestor. One of its core inheritances is called the [Heavenly Demon Slaughtering Immortal Strategy], which is a supplementary cultivation technique."

"The true form of this item is preserved in the Chenxing Crocodile Clan. It can condense true blood, reverse the ancestral state, and even connect with the ancient times through dreams from the essence blood to obtain the ancestral teachings."

“It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.”

As expected, the black dragon was indeed tempted. If it could obtain the ancestral teachings from the essence blood, it would surely gain something as long as its ancestors had produced powerful figures.

Although his three eyes were mutated, they were still genuine dragon blood.

What are the conditions?

"It's very simple..."

At the entrance of the Water Mansion, Golden Carp rushed over clumsily. Upon seeing Hu Meiniang and the sound-silencing array at the entrance, he was furious.

"What are you doing? I have important matters to report to the King. Get out of the way at once."

"Get out of the way?"

"Oh ho, little carp, you're quite bold! Do you know what your king is talking about inside?"

"I don't care what you do, nothing is as important as this matter. If you don't move aside, don't blame me for taking action."

Hu Meiniang filed her nails and sneered.

"Your king is talking about breaking through to the sixth-rank demon king, are you sure you want to ruin things?"

Upon hearing this, Golden Carp hesitated, wavering back and forth, realizing that whether he went in or not, he would be in big trouble!

"Damn you, you vixen, fuck me!"

Golden Carp turned around and went to assemble the demon army of the Water Palace.

Three hundred feet further down is the Golden Sand Demon Market, where you can call for help.

Above the turbulent Jinsha River.

Gu Qing's breakthrough was nearing its end. After his divine sense surged, the refinement of the last three souls was a natural outcome.

The seven spirits surrounding the life soul, residing in the seven chakras, were initially integrated into the life soul. Furthermore, the demonic soul stored in the living body of the Crimson Cloud Tower was completely drained by Gu Qing and filled into it.

This caused the dark soul enveloping the Niwan Palace to shrink rapidly.

Black demonic runes were engraved in the center of the seven chakra, and with a slight perception, the name of the Earthly Fiend Divine Power was revealed—[Undying Demonic Soul Body].

This supernatural power endowed his life soul with the characteristic of immortality.

Even without rare treasures to repair the soul, it can recover on its own. If one cultivates to a high level, one can even be resurrected and have an immortal soul!

Of course, there is an upper limit to this immortality, and further research is needed to understand the specific details.

But Gu Qing's soul transformation is not yet over.

The new version of the pitch-black little man escaped into the Niwan Palace and sat opposite the Flame Lord, who was formed from divine consciousness.

The spirit is the extension of the soul into its hands and feet.

A strong consciousness leads to a strong life force.

A strong life soul leads to a high upper limit of spiritual consciousness and a qualitative change in physical size.

Two baby versions of Gu Qing, one in red and one in black, held hands and began to merge.

In just half an hour.

The two merged into one. The pitch-black infant had demonic runes engraved on its body, and its meridians resembled magma, emitting a golden-red glow. A fiery robe covered with Zhu Rong incantations draped over the demonic infant.

He held the Taotie head in his left hand and a slender, faint lightning bolt in his right.

The phantom of the Bashe snake, transformed into a small snake hanging on the left ear, is a manifestation of the symbolic power of swallowing elephants. The phantom of the Taotie beast, coiled at the feet of the demon infant and roaring, is also a symbol of the power of devouring.

In addition, a large amount of fragmented gold dust swirled around the little figure, becoming a companion technique that could be used for both offense and defense.

This is the prototype of the primordial spirit.

Only by merging with the Heavenly and Earthly Souls can one become a true Nascent Soul or Primordial Spirit, capable of seizing another's body and being reborn, thus gaining a second life.

Because of his achievement of the Undying Demon Soul Body, Gu Qing felt that calling him a Demon Infant would be more appropriate.

The consciousness symbolizes the fusion of the soul and the spirit.

This also means that Gu Qing has the ability to separate his soul from his body and travel in his spirit day and night. However, he has reached the limit of the Fire Star Crimson Crow Diagram and needs a more profound spirit-refining technique to further enhance his potential.

In a short period of time, they achieved several breakthroughs in succession.

The Shattered Gold Divine Sand is indeed an excellent treasure, but it is difficult for ordinary people to utilize it.

Next, Gu Qing will perfect his control over the Undying Demon Soul Body, and then he can begin to break through to the seventh rank, the Upper Level, the Divine Transformation Body.

At this level, cultivators possess the means to cultivate their spiritual body.

It can also be called an incarnation or illusory body. The spiritual thoughts undergo a qualitative transformation, and the magical power is completely crystallized, resulting in a significant increase in strength!

His confidence in slaying the dragon increased even further.
