The God of Heavens

Chapter 414 Blood Shadow Demon Art, click to receive!
The sky was just beginning to lighten, and the sun had not yet risen.

After a night's rest, Lin Yu's strength was fully restored, and he became energetic again.

He examined the token in his hand. After the blood oath was performed last night, two martial arts techniques appeared on the token: the Blood Dragon Illusionary Step and the Blood Demon Bone Refining Fist.

Within the token, a Taoist priest dressed in blood-red robes flashed and moved about, constantly practicing martial arts moves.

At the same time, a subtle voice came from the token, explaining the various mysteries and power-generating techniques of this set of boxing techniques.

It not only has images, but it can also make sounds.

Boom boom boom!

As dawn broke, Lin Yu exerted a little force, and his palm strike resounded loudly, causing the airflow to surge instantly.

His movements were agile and swift, like a blood dragon soaring through the sky, fierce and ruthless; like a vicious dragon emerging from the abyss, his aura menacing. Every move he made showcased his sharp and ruthless martial arts.

Every raised hand and every step exudes an air of profound mystery.

At this moment, he resembled a blood-soaked dragon, his body surging with crimson light, exuding a bloody and murderous aura, and radiating a strong aura of attack.

With his level of skill, mastering this kind of martial art was naturally a piece of cake. In the blink of an eye, he broke through the second level of strength cultivation and the third level of techniques, reaching the realm of both hardness and softness.

As Lin Yu moved, the power of his entire body—his waist, legs, bones, back, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and palms—flowed together as one, and his qi and blood circulated smoothly.

It combines strength and gentleness, achieving the ultimate in flexibility and coordination; it moves like a swift wind and falls like a falling arrow, its agility surpassing even that of mountain monkeys.

"My previous accumulation has been exhausted. No matter how much I train, I won't make much progress. It's time to go to the abyss rift and the underground world for training."

Once Lin Yu made up his mind, he followed the signal from the Blood Shadow Demon Sect's token and headed in a certain direction.

Lin Yu used the Blood Dragon Steps technique, transforming into a faint streak of light and shadow as he sped through the mountains.

Suddenly, they stopped and parted the withered grass, revealing a lush green spiritual herb swaying in the wind. Its stems and leaves had a hint of purple, and wisps of spiritual energy swirled around its surface, making it appear quite mystical.

"what?"

The blood wolf from the abyss swung its claws repeatedly, carefully digging through the soil to reveal a root the size of a fist, the color of topaz.

Lin Yu's eyes flashed as he looked the plant up and down, taking a gentle sniff; it even had a faint, exotic fragrance.
"This is... Polygonatum?"

Polygonatum is known as "the leftover food of immortals". It is a food and medicine of the same origin. It can be used as a medicine to treat diseases, and it can also be used to fill the stomach. However, this one can be called a miraculous medicine.

"As expected of this Great World, it's practically overflowing with miraculous herbs!"

The older generation in the village often says that when medicinal herbs reach a certain age, they will absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and will transform into magical medicines with all kinds of incredible effects!
Of course, this achievement was mainly due to his amazing intuition.

Lin Yu immediately took the medicine and activated his internal energy cultivation technique. The powerful medicinal energy instantly transformed into a warm current, surging into his limbs and bones.

After that, he continued on his journey.

Along the way, they dug up more than a dozen medicinal herbs, including Polygonatum sibiricum and several other herbs.

These herbs, though not miraculous medicines, are extraordinary, having been used for medicinal purposes for decades.

Each time Lin Yu dug up a plant, he felt a sense of joy from the harvest, and occasionally there would be unexpected surprises. This was probably the fun of going into the mountains to collect medicinal herbs.

In the end, Lin Yu consumed all of these herbs, which became part of his own inner strength.

You know, it's really difficult for ordinary people to go into the mountains to collect herbs.

Not only do you need to find your way, but you also need to search for medicinal herbs all over the mountains and fields. This requires patience, physical strength, and luck.

But Lin Yu was different; he seemed to have a cheat code.

With a single glance and the activation of his innate spiritual sense, he could easily find any herb, no matter how deeply it was hidden.

However, the current objective is still to find the abyss rift leading to the underground world; a little bit of elixir is just a minor interlude on the journey.

Half a day later, Lin Yu had traveled hundreds of miles when a hideous fissure in the earth suddenly appeared before him.

The fissure was located in a deep valley, as if the entire earth had been cleaved open by a giant axe. The deep fissure was as black as ink, and occasionally bats would fly through the air, emitting piercing shrieks.

"finally reached."

Lin Yu gazed into the abyss, where the darkness seemed to lead straight to the deepest hell, like a gate to the underworld.

Before we could even assess the situation, countless bats swarmed in like a dark cloud descending on the city!

Each of these bats was the size of a palm-leaf fan, with fangs like knives and eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty ferocity.

It is a rare type of vampire bat.

"Blood Dragon Annihilation!"

Lin Yu spun around, his blood and energy coursing through his body, focusing on his eyes and ears. In an instant, his vision could penetrate a thousand meters, and his ears could discern the sounds of the wind from all directions.

With a light touch of the toes, it had already covered dozens of feet, stirring up a violent gust of air.

These vampire bats were immediately disoriented and were pierced by Lin Yu's Abyss Blood Wolf claws, falling like rain.

"call--"

He swooped down, passing through swarms of bats, and suddenly a bright and clear view opened up before him—

It turned out to be an endless underground plain!

The underground world is not as dark and desolate as one might imagine.

Fertile black soil covers the fields, streams murmur, and strange giant plants grow in abundance, especially mushrooms, which are the most spectacular.

These glowing mushrooms, like giant umbrellas reaching for the sky, have starlight dotting their canopies, emitting a soft glow that illuminates the abyss as if it were a dream.

Lin Yu knew that this mushroom was unique to the underground, and its faint light was enough to make those at the eighth level of the "Divine Valor" realm of physical strength see as if it were daytime.

As for him—his innate spiritual sense was extraordinary, and his Blood Dragon Body Refining Technique had long since reached its pinnacle. His Qi followed his thoughts, and his power came from his heart. Even in absolute darkness, he could walk on flat ground as if on solid ground.

He took out the Blood Shadow Token from his pocket and opened some maps inside. The maps recorded the routes of the underground world and circled many places worth testing his skills.

This abyss rift is the dwelling place of the subterranean demons, filled with countless ferocious beasts and even monsters, making it the best place to temper one's will and unleash one's potential.

True disciples of both the immortal and demonic paths cultivate underground before reaching the realm of supernatural powers.

The paths of immortals and demons are both routes to heaven. Initially, they are clearly distinct, but later they converge on the same destination.

The Daoist path emphasizes self-cultivation, gentleness, tranquility, talent, background, ethics, and social order.

Like an invisible giant net, it tightly binds people.

Anyone who tries to break free is condemned as heretic and faces suppression from senior figures.

The demonic arts of the Xuanhuang Great World mostly originated from the ancient times, passed down by extraterrestrial demons, and are completely different from the immortal path.

Their methods often rely on plundering the flesh and blood of living beings and forcibly extracting their essence. Their martial arts also often use negative emotions such as anger, hatred, evil, and cruelty as fuel to stimulate the potential of the physical body.

Its cultivation process is very similar to raising Gu poison, where thousands of insects fight each other, and the victor ultimately becomes king, reaping and ruling everything.

This is the origin of the term "human demon".

Once one cultivates to the realm of immortality, one can be revered as the "Demon Emperor".

These demonic masters, with their unparalleled wisdom, not only comprehended the original demonic arts but also improved them to make them more suitable for human cultivation.

In this way, the seven most powerful demonic forces among humankind were gradually born, known to the world as the Seven Demonic Sects!
The Earth Demons, dwelling in the bottomless abyss, reside in the underground world. Since they can invade the surface, they naturally possess secret passages connecting the two worlds.

"To enter the first level of the underground world, one must pass through a checkpoint guarded by demons?"

Lin Yu frowned slightly.

Ordinary demons and low-level yakshas are not a problem, but these kinds of levels are always guarded by flying yakshas, ​​and there may even be Asuras or even great Asuras.

That's equivalent to a true disciple of one of the ten immortal sects, or an existence at the level of a supernatural master.

Forcing your way in is by no means an easy task.

Just as I was pondering this, there was a sudden rustling sound in the bushes!

Hiss - hiss -

Several brightly colored venomous snakes suddenly darted out, lunging straight for Lin Yu's throat!
"Blood Dragon Claw!"

Lin Yu swung his hand back swiftly, his claws flashing like lightning, instantly severing all the snake heads and pinning them to the ground.

These venomous snakes are only of slight value to those who practice poison techniques; in the underground world, they are considered "worthless trash."

Before they could catch their breath, dozens of bloody afterimages rushed in again, accompanied by a stench!

"The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind!"

"It's an Abyssal Wolf!"

Lin Yu was not surprised but delighted. Before the wolf pack could surround him, a bloody shadow suddenly appeared, like a net from heaven and earth!
The demonic wolf was still in mid-air when it was cleaved in two by a sharp burst of energy.

He deftly cracked open his skull, picked out a thumb-sized, blood-red crystal core, and tossed it into his mouth as easily as cracking a melon seed.

In an instant, a warm current surged through my body, as if I were soaking in a hot spring.

"Blood Claws Crack Stones!" "Blood Demon Locks Throat!" "Blood Fiend Entangles the Body!" "Blood Waves Rage to the Heavens!" "The Blood Body Is Indestructible!"
Lin Yu unleashed the five deadly moves of the Blood Demon Body Refining Technique, each with its own variations, displaying a ferocity as intense as blood and a ruthlessness as demonic.

Immediately, his footwork changed, and the Blood Dragon Illusionary Step began to operate.

In a daze, he felt that the two techniques, one hard and one soft, one internal and one external, resonated with each other like water and fire.

His muscles trembled violently, his blood and essence flowed like mercury from his heart, swirling endlessly, and his boundless energy surged once again to his limbs and bones!
Boom——

The domineering and fierce Blood Demon Bone Refining Fist and the unpredictable Blood Dragon Illusionary Step were forcibly fused into one.

In an instant, the blood in my body surged and circulated nine times, and my heartbeat suddenly slowed down by half, yet it was as solid and powerful as a giant hammer strike!
"He has actually broken through to the fifth level of the Divine Power Realm!"

Lin Yu's mind raced, knowing full well that this transformation was a sign of stepping into the fifth level of "divine power" in the physical body—

His heartbeat is long and deep, like a tortoise's breath; his vitality is as boundless as a dragon and an elephant!
"Blood Claws Crack Stones!"
Suddenly, a claw reached out and grabbed at a dark place.

Lin Yu spread his five fingers wide, like ferocious dragon claws, and pierced through the skull of a huge abyssal blood wolf king, then pried out a large piece of blood jade crystal.

Its power has actually increased even more!

In reality, if an ordinary person cultivates their physical body to the level of divine strength, possessing the power of a galloping horse, the agility of a monkey, and the claws of a tiger or leopard, they are already considered a human weapon.

Lin Yu continued his journey through the abyss.

The monsters in the abyss rifts are mostly blood wolves, with only a few powerful beings appearing occasionally.

This journey would likely take about a day and a night, during which they would encounter countless dangers.

Blood wolves, blood bears, three-headed snakes, and even small groups of subterranean demons hunting for food were all torn apart with a single claw, their brains ripped out.

Just as Lin Yu was tearing apart an underground demon, the Blood Shadow Token in his arms suddenly seemed to sense something and began to vibrate violently!
"Om-"

The token flew out on its own, and as it spun in mid-air, it tore open a dark vortex.

Lin Yu felt dizzy and disoriented, as if he had been thrown into an endless abyss. The intense spatial distortion almost tore his head apart!

His body violently swayed and undulated in the void. If it weren't for his physical strength, which far surpassed that of ordinary people, he would have already vomited and lost consciousness.

Just as consciousness began to fade—

The Blood Shadow Token suddenly burst forth with a crimson light!
A cocoon of light enveloped his entire body, and the power of space suddenly erupted. When he came to his senses, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar demonic land.
