Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 742 Talent Acquired, Demon Enters the House

"disease!"

Changsun Jie formed a hand seal, and his surging energy rapidly subsided, becoming as still and lifeless as a stubborn rock.

"Wow!"

This was already the second time he had formed his core. The magical power in his meridians surged like a tide, and the hazy magical power in his dantian and sea of ​​qi materialized.

When the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit are combined, a perfectly round embryo gradually takes shape.

"Jie! Jie! Jie!"

A chaotic and eerie scene emerged, its strange laughter blending with the very essence of the soul.

The Tribulation of Inner Demons!
Changsun Jie frowned, his neck veins bulged, and his face showed pain. As if by a natural process, he stepped into the tribulation of inner demons.

"Buzz!"

From the bronze incense burner with its animal head, wisps of fragrant incense rose and filled the nostrils.

In a moment.

His pained expression eased somewhat, and his mind regained a sliver of clarity. In the dimly lit secret chamber, a resilient aura slowly rose.

Three days later.

Xuanyang Mountain, Wuji Peak.

Inside the Xuanling Longevity Palace and the Lijin Tower, swords rang out with a clang, and Fan Deye turned the green coins between his fingers, divining the cultivators on the peak.

"boom!"

Amidst the roar of thunder and the constant ebb and flow of spiritual energy, his expression changed slightly, and he abruptly stood up.

"The Tribulation of Pills?"
How could someone in the Xuan Yang Longevity Palace have broken through to the Core Formation Realm?

Fan Deye changed his fingertips' hand gestures and sent out a sound transmission talisman towards the Ancestral Hall.

He knew in his heart that whoever was the Core Formation cultivator was, they were at the peak of Foundation Establishment, and were definitely not someone a mere Qi Refining cultivator could provoke.

"We hope the true masters in the Ancestral Hall will come to our aid immediately."

"Shh!"

A beam of purple light descended, and Fan Deye, feeling dizzy and disoriented, tumbled to the ground with a thud.

"I can't let a junior like you ruin my important plans."

Beneath the calamity clouds, Changsun Jie narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on a corner of the Lijin Tower, where a flash of demonic energy passed by.

With a flick of his finger, another beam of hazy purple light descended, transforming into a net that scooped up a stone dragon beast trapped in an illusion.

"A feint to the east while attacking in the west—that's quite ingenious."

It's a pity your cultivation level is too low. If you had Foundation Establishment cultivation, there might actually be a slight chance that you could notify outsiders.

"boom!"

As the purple lightning struck, Changsun Jie's expression changed slightly, and he summoned his natal magic weapon.

"To avert disaster, turn adversity into fortune, and accumulate blessings is called 'transferring disaster and accumulating blessings'."

A treasure bag, shrouded in a hazy gray mist and emitting a faint purple light, tilted down, spewing out a disgusting aura of bad luck.

"Wow!"

Pale white mist churned and swirled around the lightning tribulation; in the blink of an eye, the lightning tribulation multiplied from one to two, from two to four, and from four to eight.

As the system continues to differentiate, the power of the lightning tribulation gradually diminishes.

Nine rock pillars rose up, evolving into the Ancient Calamity Array, outlined with lightning patterns, absorbing the power of thunder.

"Buzz!"

Dark thunderclouds rolled and the ancient formation trembled, dissolving the bolts of lightning.

Three
Five Ways
Twelve.
Twenty-four
"."

As time passed, a sharp light shot out from Changsun Jie's eyes, and a whisk with double-bright patterns was in his hand.

"Edict!"

The whisk was infused with the power of the Core Formation technique, twelve magical restrictions circulated, and three thousand whisk strands were flung out, completely annihilating the remaining thunderclouds.

"Finally, this step has been taken."

As the golden sunlight shone down, Changsun Jie felt a warmth, his sallow complexion turned rosy, and the deep wrinkles at his temples gradually faded.

elderly
middle aged
youth
Only when his appearance changed to that of a young man did his surging vitality recede from his dantian.

"Edict!"

With a flick of his finger, after the lightning tribulation, ancient trees crumbled, and a water mirror rose from the cave with its broken rock pillars.

Changsun Jie gazed at the young man reflected in the water mirror.

Wearing a jade crown, with sharp eyes and skin that glowed with a jade-like light, he showed no signs of aging or decay.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

He looked up at the sky and laughed, muttering to himself.

"Fang Yi, you never imagined I'd end up like this, did you?"
After countless schemes, I have finally achieved immortality today. This Xuan Yang Mountain, this Great Cloud Immortal Cultivation World, should now have a place for me.

"Buzz!"

A jade talisman shaped like a crane's beak fell from his sleeve, nine magical restrictions flowed around it, and Changsun Jie's mouth moved, silently transmitting words into the jade talisman.

"disease!

Immediately inform Yan Youtai and Xiao Yan, and then join forces with them to swallow up Fang Yi's business.

"call out!"

The one-time-use magic artifact, secretly crafted by Xuanyang Mountain, shattered instantly, and an elegant phantom of a cloud crane appeared, flapping its wings and transforming into a crystalline spiritual light.

In an instant, the light vanished into the sky.

With a wave of his sleeve, Changsun Jie sent the Disaster Relief and Fortune Accumulation Bag into a wisp of purple energy, which was absorbed into his dantian. The true essence of the magic weapon burned in the gray true fire, constantly refining its nature.

His expression changed again.

spirited and vigorous young people in their thirties
A mature and steady man in his forties.
Until, an old man with white, withered hair and a deeply lined face.
"High-grade true elixir!"

Feeling the pure magical power within his dantian, Changsun Jie's eyes gleamed with delight, and his face showed a look of surprise.

"I never imagined that after shattering my core and rebuilding, my magical power would be three-tenths purer. With the help of the unlucky spirit, I was actually able to condense a high-grade true core."
"Heh heh heh, Fang Yi is nothing special."

"Yes, I never expected that Changsun Jie could condense a top-grade true pill."

This is truly a pleasant surprise.

A gentle, joyful sound came from behind him, startling Changsun Jie so much that his hair stood on end.

There are actually outsiders in this Xuanling Longevity Palace!
"who!"

He was ruthless; he flicked his whisk, sending out three thousand silver threads like venomous snakes that struck behind him.

A slender, jade-like hand reached out, and a blue lotus appeared. As it opened and closed, a radiant light bloomed, supporting the sharp silver threads.

A soft voice rang out. "Fellow Daoist Changsun, weren't you just talking about me?"

"Why are you so ruthless the moment I show myself?"

Fang Yi, wearing a blue lotus crown and a robe that symbolizes the transformation of mountains and rivers, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, stood tall and straight, appearing a foot behind Changsun Jie at some unknown time.

"Fang Yi!
How could it be you?

Changsun Jie's pupils contracted slightly, and he was greatly shocked. Shouldn't Fang Yi be traveling to Qingkong Cliff on the Earth Phoenix Boat?

Yan Youtai and Xiao Yan had clearly tested it; the two Core Formation Qi and the mid-grade magic treasure Creation Banner were also on the ship.

"Master Fang, I too have condensed my true core. Let's part ways amicably."

"Shh!"

The silver whisk in his hand combined twelve magical techniques into one, its essence surging forth like an angry dragon as it swept towards Fang Yi.

A crimson aura emanated from his body. Changsun Jie abandoned everything, transformed into a streak of blood-red light, and fled towards the outside of the Five Extremes Peak with lightning speed.

At the same time, dozens of talismans burned, transforming into wind blades and fireballs that bombarded the heads of Fan Deye and Shilongzi.

He knew it.

Even though both are Core Formation cultivators and their pills are of the same quality, they are no match for Fang Yi.

As long as he escapes from the Five Extremes Peak, with the Heavenly Flaw Great True Person in the sect looking after him, Fang Yi would never dare to risk betraying the sect and killing a fellow Core Formation True Person.

"quick!"

"quick!"

"As long as we leave the Five Extremes Peak, we can escape unharmed!"

In the blink of an eye, the crimson light was about to pierce through the Five Extreme Peaks' protective barrier and escape.

With a glimmer of hope in sight, Changsun Jie's face contorted with malice, his heart filled with chilling malevolence.

"Fang Yi is too arrogant!"
Whatever their schemes, let me condense my inner core and then I'll escape to Tianji Peak.
"I, along with Yan Youtai and Xiao Yan, will surely give you a severe retribution, so you will know what it means to raise a tiger only to be harmed!"

"Ah"

A soft laugh echoed in Changsun Jie's ears. Fang Yi's lips curled up slightly, filled with the joy of reaping a bountiful harvest after planting seeds, watering and fertilizing them.

"I've put in a lot of effort, so I can't let you leave like this."

Fellow Daoist Changsun, we cannot keep Fellow Daoists Yan and Xiao waiting for too long.

"Fang Yi, you're arrogant!"

Despite the excruciating pain in his meridians, Changsun Jie accelerated his crimson escape light once more, causing the true elixir in his dantian to dim.

If this continues, the quality of the pills will drop.

But he couldn't care less about that!
"We can't waste it like this."

Fang Yi smiled as he watched Changsun Jie rush into the mist formed by the forbidden magic, the blue smoke and clouds swirling around him.

"Oh!"

"How can it be?!
My magic!

Why can't I activate my magic?!

As the blood-red light dissipated, Changsun Jie's divine sense surged wildly, but it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, without any reaction.

He struggled as he fell from the sky.

A beam of azure light rose up, transforming into auspicious clouds that held Changsun Jie back, and slowly landed on the stone platform of the Xuanling Longevity Palace.

Seeing that Changsun Jie's eye was cracked, Fang Yi shook his head slightly and said helplessly.

"Fellow Daoist Changsun, since joining the Five Extremes Peak after leaving Red Spring Mountain, you have exchanged the spiritual medicines you consumed from within the peak and have sought my treatment many times to resolve your old ailments."

How dare they betray me? First they contacted the Changsun family, then they colluded with Tianji Peak.

"You already knew?"

impossible!
Yan Youtai used the Heavenly Secrets Eight Trigrams Plate to carefully examine my soul and physical body.

There is clearly no law prohibiting it!

Changsun Jie's eye ruptured, blood and tears streaming down his face, his heart filled with terror.

"Fang Yi, you are merely a Core Formation cultivator, how could you possess such methods!?"

"Ah."

Fang Yi did not explain, seeing that the time was right.

With a flick of his fingers, he unleashed his magical power, which manifested as streams of spiritual light that transformed into dark, shadowy runes.

"Ahhhh!"

The runes, like knives, pierced into his soul, spreading a strange Daoist aura. Changsun Jie's face twisted in pain and rage.

He barely managed to maintain his last shred of clarity, staring intently at Fang Yi.

"when!
When did they carry out this dirty trick?
If there were laws to restrain my soul, there would be no way I would have been unaware of the inner demon tribulation.

"Even after undergoing the baptism of lightning, there was absolutely no hidden harm!"

Fang Yi remained calm, showing neither joy nor sorrow, as he channeled his magical power, causing a brilliant light to emanate from his hands.

In a moment.

The mysterious talismanic symbols acted as chains, traversing and completely merging with the soul. Changsun Jie's seven orifices were locked, his soul was sealed, and he fell into a state of complete ignorance and unconsciousness.

A three-foot-long, dark coffin was raised and used to capture Changsun Jie.

Fang Yi, his robes fluttering, put away the magical artifact, the Soul-Suppressing Coffin, and felt the true core surrounded by bad luck energy in Changsun Jie's dantian, a satisfied expression on his face.

"Given Changsun Jie's talent and background, he would at most be a mid-grade."

Unexpectedly, the shattering of his core and the subsequent rebuilding of his cultivation actually helped him.

His luck is actually quite worthy of his unlucky physical body and his natal magic weapon that governs fortune and misfortune.

"disease!"

Fang Yi's temples had turned white, and fine lines had appeared on his face. In the blink of an eye, his appearance was exactly the same as that of Changsun Jie.

With a wave of his sleeve, the Azure Lotus Banner unfurled its starlight and fell from the Five Extremes Peak Formation.

Without the Azure Lotus Banner to conceal it, the commotion of Core Formation would not have escaped Chi Meizi's notice.

"Changsun Jie has already informed Yan Youtai, so there is some time to spare."

Then comes the painstaking process; this rare talent cannot be wasted.”

As for why Changsun Jie was sealed by magic?

Fang Yi released a suction force from his five fingers, taking away the bronze beast-head furnace from the secret chamber.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

The elixir used by Changsun Jie was non-toxic and of excellent quality.

They treated hidden injuries without leaving any trace of foul play, using only top-tier elixirs.
However, if a medicinal fragrance is added, the medicinal properties are reversed, turning into a dull poison.
Azure clouds rose from her fingertips, their faint blue light tinged with a hint of purplish-red threads.

Fang Yi said helplessly.

"Compared to the path of spiritual medicine, I am still superior in the path of poison, and my talent is even better."
The path of spiritual medicine still requires refining spiritual herbs and honing skills to reach the middle level of the third rank. As for the path of spiritual poison, I broke through to the middle level of the third rank five years ago.

His gaze shifted, and a beam of blue light landed on Fan Deye, a look of satisfaction on his face.

"He remains unfazed even when Mount Tai collapses before him, and he is also very thoughtful."

Not bad!

Not bad!

He is a promising candidate for cultivating the Way of Heavenly Secrets.

A quarter of an hour later.

Xuanling Changsheng Mansion.

Inside the Lijin Tower, Fan Deye slowly opened his eyes, feeling the magical power filling his dantian.

"Ok?"

His expression suddenly changed. A mysterious aura arose in the Longevity Palace, thunder roared in the air, and calamity seemed to be gathering.

In the blink of an eye, the calamity dissipated.

"Fake pills?"
"Butler Changsun actually condensed a fake elixir? Wasn't he still recovering from his injuries?"

"We must inform our master!"

His expression hardened slightly, and he was filled with doubt. He then took out two communication talismans from his sleeve.

"call out!"

Two beams of spiritual light shot out, one heading towards the Ancestral Hall and the other towards Xuan Yang Mountain.

"Young Master Fan, Jie has fortunately condensed his core. He must go and lend a hand to the master. Afterwards, please take care of all matters at Five Extremes Peak."

Fan Deye frowned slightly, and as he heard the telepathic message in his ear, he looked at the decree being issued outside Lijin Garden.

"This
Perhaps I'm just being paranoid?

Do not!
The path to immortality is perilous; it is better to believe in the existence of things than to believe in their non-existence.

"Everything awaits Master's reply."

Fan Deye's expression was solemn. A token with the words "Qingyang" inscribed on it fell from his sleeve, transforming into a full moon that matched the restrictions of Lijin Garden.

Protected by layers of laws and regulations, he felt a slight sense of relief and exhaled a breath of stale air.

This technique restricts the connection of the spiritual veins of the Five Extreme Peaks, making it impossible for even a fake Core Formation cultivator to break through.

Above the clouds.

'They are indeed cautious'

Changsun Jie smiled and withdrew his gaze.

He was immediately met by two streaks of light. After exchanging pleasantries with the two pseudo-core cultivators left behind at the Ancestral Hall, he transformed into a streak of light and departed.

The two immortals gazed at the departing light and said leisurely.

"Another fake alchemist has emerged; the Five Extremes Peak lineage is growing ever stronger."

"Yes.

Not to mention you and me, even Master Hengyi never expected that Master Fang's subordinates would make such progress.
Including Changsun Jie, Sect Leader Fang now has four Pseudo-Core Formation Realm experts under his command.

The next day.

The bright moon hangs high, and the Tianlu Mingxiao Tower, adorned with stars and moon, weaves through the clouds.

"Wow!"

With a melodious chirp, the illusory image of the cloud crane descended.

"Crane Feather Talisman?"

On the sixth floor of the ancient building, a large silver hand reached out and swept the phantom of the spirit crane into the building.

After counting the interest.

Yan Youtai's face lit up with joy, his mind racing, and he whispered.

"My closest steward is my mole, Fang Yi, how can you compete with me?"

First, notify Xiao Yan; the two of them should join forces to take down Fang Yi. The treasure clams and spirit fish of Baiyangze are extremely valuable.

"Qingkong Cliff, as the trading place of Biyue Pavilion, offers abundant opportunities."

A quarter of an hour later.

"Wow!"

The door to the side room was pushed open, and a glimpse of a blue robe flashed by as Xiao Yan hurried along.

"Nephew Yan, was that the person who sent the letter?!"

"Uncle-Master Xiao, please take a look at the jade talisman."

Yan Youtai nodded slightly, waved his sleeve, and a silver magic barrier sealed the door, blocking all directions and isolating the inside from the outside.

He tossed out the dim crane feather talisman, and Xiao Yan caught the jade talisman, probing it with his divine sense.

A few breaths later, he showed delight.

"Hahaha, Changsun Jie condensed a mid-grade true core and then infiltrated Fang Yi's ranks."

With their assistance, we will surely be able to suppress Fang Yi's overwhelming momentum.

"Is simply suppressing Fang Yi enough for Uncle Xiao?" Yan Youtai raised an eyebrow and asked frankly.

"What does Junior Nephew Yan mean?"

Yan Youtai chuckled softly, his face full of seductive intent.

"Of course, we've taken it all. The true water of [Azure Sky Cliff] is a great tonic for True Person Mu Dao."

On the Earthly Mandarin Duck Pavilion, the Xuan Bird Pavilion shone brightly, filled with the fragrance of medicine, and was shrouded in auspicious clouds.

Unnoticed by anyone, a streak of blue light flashed and disappeared.

"Oh!"

The Xuan Niao Pavilion closed again, and Fang Yi grasped the Ruins Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner, pouring his magic power into it.

"master!"

Inside the Xuan Niao Pavilion, a scarlet spiritual light emanated from a blue lotus. Fang Yi's skin and flesh shed, transforming into a youthful-looking, innocent-looking red yin.

Fang Yi extracted the magical power that had been binding Chi Yin's body and used it to soothe Chi Yin, who was in pain.

"Chiyin, you have done a great service."

"Hey, sir." Chi Yin rushed into Fang Yi's arms, his eyes clear and full of admiration.

Fang Yi's gaze was leisurely, and a smile played on his lips.

"Yan Youtai, heh, now that you've got Changsun Jie as a hidden seed for Core Formation, you should start plotting to swallow me whole."
If you don't do this, how can I lure the White Bone Clan into the arena?
"If we don't have one or two influential cultivators on our side, it's difficult to rely on the True Person of the sect."
