Chapter 230 Cultivation World 19
The vast, boundless ice plains were filled with a thick stench of blood and pungent, demonic energy.

A monstrous bird shrieked as it swooped down from the sky, charging toward Manqi.

Manqi remained calm and muttered incantations. Flames instantly ignited, forming a wall of fire that blocked the demonic bird's attack.

The demon bird flapped its wings forcefully, trying to break through the wall of fire, but the flames were too intense, and its feathers were charred black, causing it to cry out in pain.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Manqi shot a huge fireball at the demon bird. The demon bird was unable to dodge in time and was hit by the fireball, falling from the sky and crashing to the ground, raising a cloud of icy mist.

Elsewhere, a giant ice serpent spewed icy flames, enveloping Man Shi and Man Zhan.

He channeled his full demonic power into an arrow and shot it towards the giant ice serpent. The arrow streaked across the sky like a meteor and struck the giant ice serpent in the eye.

The giant ice serpent roared in agony, its body twisting violently, and the ice flames went out.

Seizing the opportunity, Man Shi attacked the ice serpent's body with his weapon. Although the ice serpent was powerful, it gradually became exhausted under the combined attack of Man Zhan and Man Shi, and finally collapsed to the ground.

Si Lingle unleashed a series of spells, attacking an ice-type savage beast and a demonic bird.

The savage beast rammed Si Lingle with its horns, while the demonic bird swooped down from the sky and clawed at her back.

Si Lingle quickly turned around, using her magic weapon to block the beast's attack, and at the same time, she dodged to the side to avoid the demon bird's claws.

But while she was distracted in fighting off the savage beast, the demonic bird seized the opportunity to attack again, its claws scratching Si Lingle's shoulder.

Si Lingle cannot use her natal weapon either, as very few demons use swords.

Most of them used magic.

Si Lingle gritted her teeth, enduring the pain, and suddenly exerted her strength, unleashing a thunderous spell that struck directly at the demonic bird's wings.

The demonic bird was injured, lost its balance, and fell from the sky.

Seeing this, the beast roared angrily and charged at Si Lingle even more fiercely.

Si Lingle nimbly dodged and threw a talisman at the beast.

With a loud "boom," the savage beast was blasted away by the talisman.

Si Lingle activated her divine sense, which annihilated the severely injured savage beasts and demonic birds.

But a steady stream of demonic birds continued to fly towards them.

Their entanglement with this demonic bird and savage beast began three days ago.

Si Lingle and his group wandered around the ice field for more than half a month and discovered a patch of Tianxuan Ice Flowers that were over 500 years old.

Their gathering of Heavenly Profound Ice Flowers provoked the demonic birds and savage beasts.

They are the ones who protect this patch of Heavenly Mystic Ice Flowers.

If they steal their Heavenly Profound Ice Flowers, how can they not be attacked?

More than two hours later, the demonic bird and the savage beast finally retreated.

Manqi and Manshi sustained some injuries, but they were not serious.

They found a place to rest.

After taking the elixir, Si Lingle's injuries had almost completely healed.

After resting for two hours, they set off again.

Several days passed in this way. They found the Thousand-Year Ice Spirit Milk. Si Lingle knew that Man Zhan and the others needed it, so she did not share the Ice Spirit Milk with them. Instead, she asked them to give her other things in exchange.

They used the Heavenly Profound Ice Flower to exchange for the Thousand-Year Ice Spirit Milk that Si Lingle was entitled to.

After leaving the icy plains, Si Lingle and the other two separated to continue their training in the secret realm.

Before she knew it, the secret realm's opening time had ended, and Si Lingle left the secret realm.

After leaving the secret realm, Si Lingle returned to the Nine-Tailed Cat Demon Clan.

Several venerable members of the nine-tailed cat demon clan were shocked upon seeing Jiu Jiu.

"Yunhua, what is this?" Lianyu Demon Lord asked Jiu Jiu.

Si Lingle recounted how she discovered Jiu Jiu.

"I never imagined that one of our Nine-Tailed Cat Demons would be sealed away." Demon Venerable Lianyu hurriedly contacted the other Venerables via telepathy.

After waiting for a while, several other venerable ones arrived.

“There is no record of a sealed nine-tailed cat demon in our clan,” said Tianye Demon Lord.

Venerable Tianye is a cultivator who has transcended tribulation and is currently the oldest member of the Nine-Tailed Cat Demon Clan.

If they had known about the sealed offspring of their race, they would have definitely gone to rescue them, instead of waiting until now.

The demon lord surrounded Jiu Jiu, asking it how many memories it had and whether it remembered who sealed it away.

"Annoying," Jiu Jiu suddenly said.

Si Lingle stared at Jiu Jiu in shock, "Jiu Jiu, you can talk!"

For more than four years, it has not said a word.

Si Lingle didn't even consider that Jiu Jiu's cultivation had already reached the Nascent Soul stage, so he would definitely speak.

Unfortunately, she couldn't remember it at the moment.

Venerable Tianye transmitted his voice to Si Lingle, after which Si Lingle led Jiu Jiu into the place where bloodlines were tested.

Test Jiu Jiu's bloodline.

Upon seeing the bloodline runes light up, the smiles on the faces of the Venerable Ones vanished.

Venerable Tianye transmitted his voice, "It is the bloodline of an emperor!"

The first cat demon was named Si, a nine-tailed cat demon. It created the cat demon race and, according to human customs, was revered as an emperor.

Si gave birth to many offspring, some of whom, due to weaker bloodline power, became eight-tailed, seven-tailed, or one-tailed.

However, the cat demon clan later fell apart and no emperor remained.

As time goes by, the imperial bloodline also becomes increasingly diluted.

This nine-nine imperial bloodline is extremely pure, even purer than that of the nine-tailed venerables like the Heavenly Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord Lianyu transmitted his voice, saying, "Such pure imperial bloodline probably predates our birth."

This cat demon cub might be considered their ancestor or something.

After testing their bloodlines, Demon Lord Lianyu had Si Lingle take Jiu Jiu away.

After some discussion, the demon lords decided to conceal the fact that Jiu Jiu was of imperial blood.

If other cat demons find out, Jiu Jiu might be in danger.

Some cat demons harbor deep hatred for those with pure imperial bloodlines.

Several demon lords gave Jiu Jiu a lot of things, which Jiu Jiu accepted.

After returning to her cave, Si Lingle began to clean out her belongings.

While cleaning, Si Lingle also took out the two demon bones that she and Yin Shi had found earlier.

It was only then that she realized that the demon bone was actually a storage item.

This great demon had refined his bones into storage devices. These two bones contained many rare and precious materials, as well as top-grade spirit stones and even three immortal stones.

Si Lingle didn't recognize the Immortal Stone, but Xiao Zi did, and it told Si Lingle.

However, when the immortal stones were taken out, the Samsara Realm reacted, flying directly out of Si Lingle's dantian and devouring the three immortal stones.

Si Lingle didn't even have time to stop it before the three immortal stones were gone.

However, the power of this immortal stone was indeed very strong, and it repaired the two long cracks in the Reincarnation Realm.

As for some rare and precious materials, Jiu Jiu took some without any hesitation.

Si Lingle didn't say anything, because these rare and precious materials were more useful to the demon race.

It's not that useful for the human race.

It took Si Lingle several days to clean up these things. After cleaning, Si Lingle suddenly remembered the crystal-clear fruit that Jiu Jiu had found in the secret realm. Si Lingle asked Jiu Jiu about it, and Jiu Jiu told her that it was a Star Spirit Fruit Tree.

This tree grows by absorbing the power of the stars, and it takes thousands of years for it to flower and bear fruit.

Consuming this Star Spirit Fruit can change one's constitution, allowing the body to absorb spiritual energy more quickly.

Moreover, this Star Spirit Fruit contains the power of stars. If one can master the power of stars, it will be beneficial for future tribulations and ascension.

After learning that it was a Star Spirit Fruit Tree, Si Lingle prepared to leave the demon race and return to her sect.

She wants to try to cultivate this Star Spirit Fruit Tree. If she can encourage it to grow branches and take root, then she will own the Star Spirit Fruit Tree.

Half a month later, the demon lords agreed to let Si Lingle leave.

As she left, she received gifts from several demon lords.

Si Lingle also gave her some gifts in return, including spirit wine and her experience in crafting a teleporter.

She felt really guilty for deceiving the demon lords who had treated her so well.

However, she could not tell the demon lords the truth, so she could only give them some gifts as a token of her gratitude.

If she is able to repay the demon lords in the future, she will definitely repay them for their kindness.

After leaving the demon realm, Si Lingle returned to her sect. When she returned, her master was still in seclusion.

After leaving a telepathic message, Si Lingyue also went into seclusion.

Jiu Jiu lay on the bed, watching Si Ling Le tinkering with something it had never seen before.

"What are you doing?" Jiu Jiu couldn't help but ask.

"Let the Star Spirit Fruit tree branches take root," Si Lingle said.

“Take root? You’re dreaming.” Jiu Jiu said, “The Star Spirit Fruit Tree is a naturally grown spiritual object. If its branches could take root, it wouldn’t be called a spiritual object.”

"Who knows if we don't try?" Si Lingle smiled and continued her research and analysis.

Slices of the stellaria were analyzed using an analyzer to examine the cellular structure of the star fruit tree.

More than three months have passed in the blink of an eye. Four of the Star Spirit Fruit tree branches that Si Lingle cut and cultivated have taken root and sprouted.

Two of the roots were very healthy, while the other two had thin and short roots.

Si Lingle quickly reconstituted the potion and applied it to the two sections of the Star Spirit Fruit tree.

As for the two sections that were growing well, Si Lingle transplanted them into the soil.

Jiu Jiu, curious, wandered around to the side.

Unexpectedly, the human race actually managed to make the Star Spirit Fruit tree branches take root.

Every day I saw her tinkering with all sorts of random things, and I always thought she would fail, but I never expected her to succeed.

Although it has taken root, whether it can be stored and sprout again is still a question.

Because the Star Spirit Fruit Tree needs the power of the stars, Si Lingle set up a special formation and placed some interstellar-era technological products to accelerate the Star Spirit Fruit Tree's absorption of the power of the stars.

After the two sections of the Star Spirit Fruit tree that were not in good condition had grown well, Si Lingle transplanted them into the soil.

They were all planted in front of her cave.

This thing requires the power of stars, not spiritual energy, so it is not suitable for planting in her nanocapsule.

If they can be planted, Si Lingle will keep one for herself, give one to her master, one to the sect, and the other to the Nine-Tailed Cat Demon Clan.

Si Lingle, on the other hand, has broken through in her seclusion; she is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Si Lingle sat cross-legged outside the cave, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged towards her as if it were a tangible substance, forming a huge vortex of spiritual energy.

Si Lingle closed her eyes tightly, her face full of determination, and the spiritual power in her body surged wildly in her meridians, constantly impacting her golden core.

Cracks began to appear on the golden core, emitting a dazzling light as if it were about to explode. With a loud bang, the golden core shattered, and Si Lingle's body was enveloped by a powerful force, her soul undergoing a painful reshaping.

Under Si Lingle's powerful divine control, these fragments began to recombine in an orderly manner, gradually outlining the shape of an infant.

The nascent soul is about to take shape, but the tribulation of inner demons also arrives quietly like a shadow.

Si Lingle was plunged into endless darkness.

Various illusions began to surface in her mind, and the setbacks and failures she had experienced surged towards her like a tide.

Then, the illusion shifted, and she saw her most cherished family members.

Her grandparents, parents and children all passed away.

And they were blaming her for not being there for them in their final days!

The guilt in her heart was like a series of sharp blades, constantly piercing her soul.

The inner demon seized the opportunity to enter, taking on various forms and wreaking havoc in her consciousness, attempting to destroy her Dao heart.

Si Lingle gritted her teeth, enduring the pain in her heart.

She knew all this was an illusion created by her inner demons, a test of her resolve.

Her family loves her so much, how could they blame her?

Si Lingle slowly opened her eyes, a determined glint in them.

Si Lingle raised the Qingchu Sword high in her hand, chanting incantations to activate the spiritual power within her body and inject it into the Qingchu Sword.

In an instant, the Azure Beginning Sword burst forth with dazzling light.

Si Lingle brandished the Qingchu Sword and slashed at the illusion of the inner demon.

The inner demon illusion, like a ghost, constantly evaded Si Lingle's attacks and grew stronger and stronger.

They mocked Si Lingle's futile efforts, trying to plunge her into despair. Si Lingle knew in her heart that this couldn't go on; she had to find the root of her inner demons in order to completely defeat them.

Si Lingle stopped attacking, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and gradually calmed herself down.

Si Lingle began to review her cultivation journey and reflect on her original aspirations and beliefs.

She wants to cultivate to the Great Dao and return to her original world!

She stayed true to herself and forged ahead bravely.

When Si Lingle opened her eyes again, the confusion in them had disappeared, replaced by a sense of determination and composure.

Si Lingle gripped the Qingchu Sword tightly, concentrating all her power on the tip of the blade.

Si Lingle let out a low shout and charged towards the core of the inner demon. This time, her attack was unstoppable, and the illusions of the inner demon shattered one after another under her sword.

The inner demons dissipated, and soon a nascent soul surrounded by faint sword light took shape. This nascent soul also had purple and gold floral patterns on its forehead, which was completely different from ordinary golden nascent souls, making it appear exceptionally mysterious and powerful.

At this moment, dark clouds filled the sky, and lightning flashed and thunder roared, as if the heavens and earth were trembling in response to this breakthrough.

"Boom!" The first lightning bolt, like a thick silver dragon, struck straight down from the sky.

Si Lingle reacted extremely quickly, immediately circulating all her spiritual power and using the Xuanwu Technique to withstand the first blow.

Si Lingle, who was struck by lightning, absorbed the power of the thunder to temper her body.

Soon, the second lightning strike came down, but Si Lingle still withstood it.

When the third lightning tribulation struck, Si Lingle summoned the Qingchu Sword and unleashed the Thunder Sword Intent!

A sharp purple sword intent collided violently with the lightning, unleashing a terrifying energy surge that seemed to tear the entire space apart.

Si Lingle was knocked back several steps, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

Before Si Lingle could catch her breath, the fourth lightning tribulation had already been prepared.

This time, the lightning transformed into countless sharp sword lights, sweeping across the sky like a death storm.

Si Lingle dared not slacken in the slightest, and used the Xuanwu Technique to protect her body with all her might. At the same time, she wielded the Qingchu Sword and engaged in fierce combat with the Sword Tribulation.

"Clang! Clang!" The sword intent and sword tribulation collided continuously, producing crisp and rapid sounds, and each collision sparked dazzling sparks.

Si Lingle had multiple wounds on her body, but she still gritted her teeth and persevered, her eyes revealing a firm will.
