I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 39 Innate Primordial Spirit
"You little bastard!?"

On another battlefield, Xi Luo, who had witnessed Pan Hu fainting, roared.

Unfortunately, Xi Luo, who was entangled with the Ghost King, could only watch helplessly at this moment.

Although Xi Luo is the mountain god of Feilai Peak.

However, in terms of his actual combat strength, he is only slightly stronger than the exceptionally talented Panhu.

After all, her combat strength had been greatly reduced in the recent battle with the grubs.

Then he used a burst skill that could boost his strength in a short period of time.

Therefore, as long as the Ghost King survives the initial period of explosive power, Xi Luo's danger level will drop sharply.

In fact, this was no challenge for the Ghost King, who was an incarnation of a ghost owl.

As the strongest evil spirit, the Ghost King possesses the "immortal body" common to all evil spirits, so simply disintegrating its form is meaningless.

Only by completely eliminating the beast spirits within the Ghost King's body can the Ghost King be killed in the end.

So unsurprisingly, the battle between Xi Luo and the Ghost King entered a phase of sustained attrition.

Neither side in the battle was thinking about getting rid of the other; instead, they were focused on ending the fight quickly.

boom! boom! boom!
Xi Luo, transformed into a red leopard, stood on fiery clouds, breathing out flames.

Each attack successfully shattered the Ghost King, significantly reducing the number of roaring beast spirits within its body.

In contrast, the Ghost King's counterattack, though not as powerful as Xi Luo's, brought out the most bizarre, mournful, and sinister aspects.

Each attack carries a terrifying curse, weakening the opponent in every way, from physical to mental.

Every now and then you can hear the ghost king's mournful howls, which is the most disgusting form of mental pollution.

Clang! Clang! Clang!
The piercing sound of metal clashing echoed throughout Black Cloud Marsh.

If the battle between Xi Luo and the Ghost King was a clash of supernatural powers and magic, then the battle between Li Boyang and the Four-Armed Ghost God was a pure physical attack.

Relying on his indestructible body.

The four-armed demon waved its arms, colliding with the sword pellet time and time again.

Even if the four-armed demon god is occasionally pierced by the spinning flying sword, he can recover from his injuries in an instant.

As the owl said, he, who had transformed into a ghost, was an invincible being in the darkness.

This is a characteristic of ghosts, and also a privilege of gods.

"I am a god now!"

"And God is invincible!"

Shouting arrogantly, the owl was clearly affected by its own obsession and resentment, becoming extremely manic and arrogant.

After all, if "God" were truly invincible, he wouldn't have targeted Li Boyang's physical body in the first place.

[A brainless idiot who would abandon wisdom for power.]

A cold voice entered the mind of the owl, and the golden sword pellet stopped in mid-air.

The next second, malevolent energy from beneath the earth rose up and continuously converged near the sword pellet.

This sudden turn of events completely stunned the owl, who had originally planned to continue its attack.

tumultuous!
As the malevolent energy gathered, the earth began to tremble, and the earth's crust began to collapse.

In the blink of an eye, a small earthquake occurred in the Black Cloud Marsh and quickly spread to the entire Hundred Mountains.

"Gathering evil and refining form? A secret technique of the Ghost Realm?"

Staring wide-eyed at the still-gathering malevolent energy, Youxiao succinctly revealed the essence of this phenomenon.

"How do you know my Ghost Cube secret technique!?"

"Ghost Fang Secret Method" is the method by which the Ghost Owl refines evil spirits, and it is also a closely guarded secret of the High Priest of the Ghost Fang Kingdom.

If Youxiao hadn't accidentally transformed into a vengeful ghost and used the power of the alchemy furnace to capture the Ox-Headed Yin God, he would never have achieved his current ghostly and divine body.

It was precisely because she understood the difficulty of mastering the "Ghost Fang Secret Technique" that the Owl displayed such an incredulous expression. "You've trained me into a sword spirit, and now you're asking me how I know the Ghost Fang Secret Technique?"

The cold voice rang out again, but this time it had a specific source.

Endless malevolent energy coalesced into a human form.

He was a man whose clothes and appearance were completely out of step with the times.

Short-sleeved shirt and trousers, buzz cut, plus an undeniable youthful charm...

This was clearly Li Boyang's appearance in his previous life.

Clang!
From a distance, one could see him holding a golden longsword, standing in mid-air, with no hint of ferocity about him.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, the owl would never have imagined that the other party was actually the embodiment of malevolent energy.

"Besides, this isn't the 'ghostly secret method' you're talking about..."

What Li Boyang said was true; the form he manifested using evil energy was not that of an evil spirit.

So-called ghosts and monsters are powerful beings born from souls attaching themselves to some kind of substance.

The stronger the resentment and the deeper the obsession, the stronger the ghost becomes.

When these powerful ghosts meet certain predetermined conditions and undergo further transformation, the so-called "evil ghosts" are born.

From this perspective, Li Boyang, whose soul is attached to the Divine Firmament Sword, can actually be considered a special kind of evil spirit.

The Undying Soul, the Divine Firmament Sword...

If Li Boyang hadn't ultimately turned the tables on Youxiao and been reborn as a human, he would have been the strongest demon under Youxiao's command.

"Impossible! You are clearly..."

Just as the owl was about to retort, it suddenly widened its eyes in disbelief.

Because the Owl discovered that what Li Boyang said was actually true, his current state was much more complicated than that of the Fiend.

It is modeled after the human body's nine palaces and eight trigrams, and the acupoints throughout the body...

Li Boyang had reconstructed a body independent of the physical body—a spiritual body existing between existence and non-existence.

tumultuous!
A continuous stream of malevolent energy circulated within his body, eventually flowing into the Divine Firmament Sword in his hand.

Most importantly, compared to those evil spirits born from resentment.

In this state, Li Boyang is not only clear-headed and rational, but also possesses a transcendent spirituality.

That is the most fundamental and purest part of biological consciousness.

It is an innate spiritual essence that exists independently of acquired experience and learning.

It is precisely because of this spiritual presence that Li Boyang is no longer considered a malevolent spirit.

"What exactly are you now?"

Perhaps out of fear of the unknown, the owl's voice trembled.

"I'm also very curious... about my current situation."

Feeling the resonance between himself and the earth's malevolent energy, Li Boyang murmured curiously.

"Even though I've lost my physical body, I still retain my complete self and emotions..."

“I seem to have become a ‘god’ like the gnat, a ‘god’ formed from the earth’s primordial energy.”

"Whether it's auspicious or inauspicious, it's just a choice made by the 'gods'."

It was as if this was confirming Li Boyang's words.

The Divine Firmament Sword in his hand suddenly emitted a warm and jade-like aura at this moment.

"If I had to give this state of mine a suitable name..."

“I think the term ‘primordial spirit’ is quite good.”
