Terran Guardian

Chapter 2886: Shura Demon Lord

Inside the Seven Profound Divine Tower.

Shen Changqing sat cross-legged, holding the star core with both palms, silently refining the energy within. Streams of extremely pure power surged into his body like miniature galaxies.

His body was like a star field!

Capable of containing all kinds of ancient stars!

At this moment, descriptions of the Ancient Star Domain Sutra appeared in Shen Changqing's mind. His divine sense, as if detached from his body, went straight into the ninth heaven, and then entered the chaos.

Boundless chaos.

There were ancient star domains naturally formed.

A vast and ancient aura filled the star domain, having existed for an unknown number of years. Various ancient stars were born from the star domain, and the two seemed to resonate with each other.

Time passed by slowly.

Suddenly.

Within the star domain, among the almost countless ancient stars, one ancient star trembled slightly. A ray of light, like the beginning of the world, suddenly appeared, as if illuminating the dim and gloomy star domain in an instant.

"Boom!"

The moment the ancient star was lit up, the vast star domain trembled violently. Behind Shen Changqing, starlight surged, and an ancient star suppressed the galaxy. The terrifying and heavy aura suppressed the eight desolations and heavens.

"The first ancient star is finally condensed!"

Shen Changqing opened his eyes, a smile on his face. Just now, he had successfully condensed an ancient star within his body.

The moment the ancient star was condensed, it meant that Shen Changqing had completely mastered the basics of the Ancient Star Domain Sutra.

Of course.

This was just the beginning.

To truly cultivate it to completion, there was still a long way to go.

"Condensing an ancient star doesn't change my strength much right now. I can't see much change for the time being!"

Shen Changqing looked within himself. The power of an ancient star would be a significant change for others, but for him now, the change was quite subtle.

Subsequently.

Shen Changqing continued to cultivate.

In the end.

Five Rank 8 star cores.

Allowed him to successfully condense three ancient stars.

When the ancient stars were condensed, Shen Changqing could clearly feel that the ancient stars in his body seemed to echo the ancient stars in the chaos.

As long as he was willing, he could completely draw down the power of the stars in the chaos to supply his subsequent cultivation.

However, Shen Changqing tried it and found that this method of cultivating by drawing down the power of the stars was a hundred times slower than directly refining star cores.

It could be seen.

If star cores were not used as a substitute.

Relying solely on drawing down the power of the stars to cultivate, truly wanting to cultivate the Ancient Star Domain Sutra to completion and condense 3.6 million ancient stars, it was unknown how long it would take.

"But if I use star cores to cultivate, the number of star cores required would probably be an astronomical figure!"

Shen Changqing's expression was serious.

Five star cores.

Condensed three ancient stars.

Even if the subsequent cultivation resources were the same, wanting to condense 3.6 million ancient stars would require at least five to six million star cores.

Even if calculated with the worst Rank 8 star cores, a low-grade Rank 8 star core was worth a thousand middle-grade immortal stones. In terms of immortal stones alone, this consumption was imaginable.

Although strength was difficult to measure with resources.

For an ordinary force, taking out so many resources at the same time was not an easy task.

Originally, Shen Changqing thought that with the Heavenly Alliance and the various demon gods, he should not lack resources.

Subsequently.

Shen Changqing began to refine pills.

Resources were scarce.

He naturally had to refine pills to make money.

Rather than slowly drawing down the power of the stars to cultivate, it was better to be straightforward and refine some pills to exchange for star cores.

— —

One day.

Shen Changqing had just come out of seclusion not long ago, and after guiding other disciples of the Pill Peak in their cultivation, he saw a message from the Profound Heaven Dao Mirror.

"The Red Dust Immortal Sect has been destroyed!"

Looking at the information in the Profound Heaven Dao Mirror, Shen Changqing's expression changed slightly.

The Red Dust Immortal Sect has been destroyed!

This news surprised him somewhat.

During this period, although Shen Changqing did not pay attention to external affairs, he was clear that the Profound Heaven Dao Sect was integrating its forces and was ready to attack the Red Dust Immortal Sect at any time.

Under such circumstances, other forces did not dare to snatch food from the tiger's mouth in front of the Profound Heaven Dao Sect.

Not long after.

Shen Changqing received a message from Qing Xu and immediately set off for the main sect hall.

Now.

The elders of each peak were gathered here.

Qing Xu, as the Supreme Elder, sat in the position belonging to the sect master.

However, when Shen Changqing arrived, Qing Xu looked at him a few more times.

In the previous battle.

This Peak Master of the Pill Peak did not seem to appear.

However, Qing Xu didn't think much about it. After all, the Pill Peak itself was not good at fighting. Later, when the Profound Heaven Dao Sect attacked other sects, the Pill Peak provided a steady stream of pills from behind.

Therefore.

Even if Shen Changqing didn't show up in the previous battle, Qing Xu didn't feel dissatisfied.

He looked at the other party a few more times only out of curiosity about this Peak Master of the Pill Peak.

After all, Qing Mu had been talking about Shen Changqing in front of Qing Xu, and his words showed that he was optimistic about him. It was difficult for Qing Xu not to be curious.

But even so.

Qing Xu only looked at him twice and then directly withdrew his gaze.

"The Red Dust Immortal Sect has been destroyed. According to the news from the sect's disciples, the root cause of the Red Dust Immortal Sect's destruction this time is the Crossing Immortal River!"

Qing Xu went straight to the point. His words made everyone's expression change.

Obviously.

No one expected.

The destruction of the Red Dust Immortal Sect was actually related to the Crossing Immortal River.

Qing Xu flicked his finger, and divine light and Dao rhyme burst out, instantly reflecting the scene of the Red Dust Immortal Sect.

The vast Red Dust Immortal Sect had been completely turned into a forbidden area. Many disciples of the sect had fallen, and everyone seemed to have been dead for a long time. Their bodies were dry, and the blood all over their bodies seemed to have been completely drained by something.

"This is the work of the Crossing Immortal River!!"

A sect elder's face was shocked. He felt unbelievable at the scene before him.

Even when Shen Changqing saw this scene, his brows furrowed slightly.

"All the cultivators' blood has been drained. Could it be that the Crossing Immortal River has cultivated some kind of demonic cultivation technique?"

Gongsun Yang said in a deep voice.

Demonic cultivation technique!

It was a method of cultivation full of bloodshed.

In the Nine Heavens Immortal World, this kind of technique was not uncommon.

Qing Xu said: "This old man once went to the Red Dust Immortal Sect and found traces of a blood sacrifice formation there. That formation was somewhat similar to the rumored Shura Blood Formation!"

"Shura Blood Formation!!"

Gongsun Yang's face changed drastically.

"Supreme Elder, are you saying that the Crossing Immortal River is related to the Shura Demon Lord!?"

"Shura Demon Lord?"

The other sect elders showed puzzled expressions on their faces when they heard this, obviously unfamiliar with the name.

Even Shen Changqing was reviewing the information about the Shura Demon Lord in his mind, but unfortunately, he found that he was hearing this name for the first time.

But seeing Gongsun Yang's solemn expression, Shen Changqing could understand that the Shura Demon Lord was probably not simple.

"May I ask Peak Master Gongsun, who is the Shura Demon Lord?"

It was Gu Daoxuan who asked.

Just as Gongsun Yang was about to speak, Qing Xu's voice had already come.

"Let this old man talk about the Shura Demon Lord!"

"Speaking of which, this old man first heard of the Shura Demon Lord from the sect's founder—"

Qing Xu spoke, and everyone's eyes fell on him.

The former's expression remained unchanged, and he continued to speak faintly.

"The Shura Demon Lord is an ancient existence. It is rumored that the strange existence who walked out of the Yellow Springs, some people also said that the Shura Demon Lord was originally a human cultivator, but later obtained a mysterious inheritance from the Yellow Springs, so he transformed into a demon!"

"But the origin of the Shura Demon Lord has long been impossible to verify."

"It is only known that when the Shura Demon Lord appeared, he stirred up a bloody storm in the Nine Heavens Immortal World. Many immortal domains were blood sacrificed and slaughtered by him, and the number of fallen creatures was enough to be calculated in the trillions.

Many top forces, after learning of this news, took action one after another to encircle and suppress the Shura Demon Lord. It is rumored that dozens of Immortal Emperor Realm experts joined forces in that battle, but they were all beheaded by the Shura Demon Lord.

Later, ancient existences who had reached immortality took action, and there was more than one. In the end, they completely suppressed the Shura Demon Lord!"

"No one knows the final result of that battle. Some people said that the Shura Demon Lord had already fallen, some said that he escaped with serious injuries, and some said that he was sealed in a certain place.

But no matter what, the Shura Demon Lord has had no news since that battle."

"But although the Shura Demon Lord disappeared, the inheritance he left behind was not truly cut off. In the years that followed, some cultivators used the Shura Demon Lord's inheritance to stir up a bloody storm again."

"Since then, many immortal domains have taken full action to encircle and suppress all the cultivators who obtained the Shura Demon Lord's inheritance.

When the war truly broke out, many forces realized that those cultivators who obtained the Shura Demon Lord's inheritance, using unknown methods, had actually turned a large number of cultivators into demons for them to drive."

"Because of this, the momentum of this battle was no weaker than the initial battle. Many forces paid a great price to completely suppress this demonic disaster.

Since then, the Shura Demon Lord and his inheritance have completely disappeared. Many cultivators believe that he has been completely eliminated."

"This matter happened in the ancient times, and the years are extremely long. Many forces have never heard of the Shura Demon Lord's name. Only in some forces will there be records of that battle!"

"And my Profound Heaven Dao Sect's records about the Shura Demon Lord are said to have been left by the Profound Heaven Immortal Emperor."

"Now that the Shura Blood Formation has appeared in the Red Dust Immortal Sect, that is the Shura Demon Lord's method, and it is also one of the main methods for his disciples to blood sacrifice living beings.

Since the Crossing Immortal River understands the Shura Blood Formation, then it is very likely that he has already obtained the Shura Demon Lord's inheritance. If this is true, then the problem is quite serious!"

Qing Xu's expression became extremely serious as he spoke.
