Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 403 Refining Demons into Pills!

However, it was precisely for this reason that Gu Yuan became interested in Nightmare Seed.

Because his "Mirror Flower Water Moon" supernatural power is a special kind of supernatural power, related to illusion, soul, and the method of creating clones.

In other words, the Mirror Flower Water Moon Divine Power has many similarities with the various divine powers cultivated by the Nightmare Child, or rather, with the Nightmare God and Demon of the other party!

Given this situation, Gu Yuan inevitably began to have some thoughts.

Gu Yuan now has a very solid foundation. However, he has already mastered the two top-level supernatural abilities recorded in the Taoist book "Taiyuan Zhenshui Jing": "Taiyin Yingyue Sword Technique" and "Mirror Flower Water Moon".

Furthermore, thanks to the spirit pet system, Gu Yuan also cultivated the prototypes of two great divine abilities: Chaotic Divine Thunder and Boundless Divine Escape.

For this reason, Gu Yuan planned to elevate his swordsmanship and supernatural abilities, transforming them into the prototype of a great supernatural power. He would then use this as the foundation for forging his golden core.

If this continues, then in the end, Gu Yuan will advance to the Golden Core stage based on the rudiments of three great divine abilities, one top-tier divine ability, and several high-grade and mid-grade divine abilities.

The Mirror Flower Water Moon Divine Power is quite special, and Gu Yuan can't find a good way to upgrade it into a prototype of a great divine power for the time being.

However, an hour ago, when Gu Yuan was searching the soul memories of the Tellurium Demon Ape, he discovered the existence of Nightmare Child and the special nature of this person's innate god and demon. Gu Yuan was intrigued!

Because he saw in Nightmare Child the possibility of sublimating the Mirror Flower Water Moon supernatural power.

If we refine Nightmare Child's natal demon god—the Nightmare Demon God—removing its "impurities" and leaving only the necessary essence, and then finally smelt it into a pill, it might greatly benefit the Mirror Flower Water Moon Divine Power.

Of course, Gu Yuan had never done this before, so he wasn't absolutely certain.

However, he was quite accomplished in alchemy. After pondering for a while, he felt that this idea was very feasible, so he decided to give it a try.

Anyway, even if we fail, there won't be any loss.

But if he succeeds, it will be a great thing for him.

Most importantly, this "Mirror Flower Water Moon" supernatural power is also a supernatural power recorded in the Taoist book "Taiyuan Zhenshui Jing". It comes from the same source as the supernatural power "Taiyin Yingyue Sword Technique", and its benefits to him are not small.

Next, Gu Yuan didn't rush to refine pills. Instead, he cleaned up the remains of Nightmare Child and found his storage bag.

As for Cang Yunfei and Cang Yuejiao, Gu Yuan picked them up and headed straight into the dense forest.

From the memories of the Tellurium Demon Ape, Gu Yuan had some understanding of this dense forest, knowing that Nightmare Child had carved out a simple cave dwelling here.

Gu Yuan had things to do next, so he simply took over the job and got busy with his own affairs.

Before long, Gu Yuan found Nightmare's cave. It didn't look particularly impressive from the outside, but the space inside was quite large.

However, the overall environment had a somewhat strange and eerie feel to it.

Considering that this was the cave of a demonic cultivator, Gu Yuan was not surprised.

He waved his hand and unleashed a bolt of lightning. The domineering and powerful masculine energy quickly spread throughout the entire cave, completely eliminating the yin and demonic energy within.

Next, Gu Yuan threw the two into separate rooms, making sure they were alright and just temporarily affected by the Nightmare Child's supernatural powers, thus falling into a dream and waking up soon. So he ignored them.

Gu Yuan found a room by himself, closed the door, and set up several restrictions to ensure that he would know immediately if anyone touched it. Then, Gu Yuan took out the Nine Dragon Furnace and a storage bag.

Leaving aside the Nine Dragon Furnace, this storage bag naturally belongs to Nightmare.

As for the contents inside, there were quite a few: spirit stones, magical artifacts, spiritual materials and medicines, and other miscellaneous items. However, besides these things, there was also a rather strange grayish-white rib.

Gu Yuan looked the object up and down several times, and felt that it was rather strange.

This rib is only a small part, with a smooth, jade-like surface and a slightly crystalline feel. Upon closer inspection, you can even see wisps of smoke rising from inside.

Gu Yuan probed into it with his divine sense.

Sure enough, hidden inside was a long, profound, and somewhat eerie scripture—the Nightmare Codex.

Clearly, this is a demonic scripture practiced by Nightmare Boy.

After careful consideration, Gu Yuan discovered that although this Taoist book was only of the lower-grade Heaven rank, only slightly better than his "Taiyuan Zhenshui Jing", it was still extremely exquisite. Most importantly, this Taoist book focused on the soul, illusion, and dreams.

Although he cannot cultivate because his foundation is already fixed and there is some conflict with it, if he were to study it, he would definitely gain a lot of insights, which would be of great benefit to his cultivation of the Mirror Flower Water Moon Divine Power.

After carefully putting away the "Nightmare Manual," Gu Yuan touched the Nine Dragon Furnace, and the dark red true fire inside immediately surged.

"Ah—young man, stop! Spare my life, I..."

At the same time, a faint but pitiful cry came from inside, but before the other party could finish speaking, Gu Yuan cast a spell, immediately silencing Nightmare's words.

Then, Gu Yuan began to seriously refine pills, or rather, refine people.

To be precise, the Nightmare Child of today is no longer human, but a natal god-demon, composed of a mass of primordial energy.

Although Gu Yuan had never come into contact with Yin Demons or Gods before, he had never actually tried to refine them into pills.

However, Gu Yuan also had his own thoughts on this.

Whether it's refining elixirs or crafting artifacts from spiritual materials, the essence is simply to remove the impurities, extract the essence, and then blend the various parts you need to ultimately create elixirs or magical artifacts.

As for the Nightmare Seed in the Nine Dragon Furnace, it is essentially no different from a spiritual herb; it is also a wisp of primordial energy.

However, this primordial energy is not a single type of primordial energy, and it also contains the mysteries of more than a dozen supernatural powers.

It's not easy to strip away the unwanted yin energy, evil energy, demonic energy, and even some supernatural powers, leaving only what he needs.

Fortunately, Gu Yuan was skilled enough, and with the Nine Dragon Furnace being an excellent alchemy furnace, he was not stumped.

Gu Yuan formed hand seals and cast various spells.

Under Gu Yuan's control, the dark red true fire inside the Nine Dragon Furnace surged, splitting into nine fiery red dragons that rolled up the heat to bake it.

Enveloped in the true fire, the Nightmare God and Demon within had shrunk into a ball, its surface shimmering with demonic light, trying to resist the firepower.

However, it can hold out for a while, but it cannot last much longer.

After more than three hours, the magical light on its surface had been worn away by the true fire.

Even the demonic energy and yin energy within the Nightmare God and Demon were gradually refined away by the true fire, and the Nightmare Child visibly began to weaken.
