154: Advancing to the late stage of foundation building, this world's family? (Subscribe)
"Your body?"
"No!"
"Senior, this Senior, wait!"
"Junior knows there's a body within the Twin Saints Sect, a body left behind by a Nascent Soul True Monarch, which is immeasurably better than mine."
"As long as Senior spares my life, Junior will certainly..."
Kong Yu's Divine Soul in his Sea of Consciousness was rapidly forced into a corner. Without any power to resist, Kong Yu's heart was filled with panic.
Several breaths passed in the blink of an eye.
Kong Yu, who had been standing with his eyes closed in a stone pit, suddenly opened a pair of amber eyes. The slightly youthful expression he once had was completely gone.
Now, his eyes held a completely mature gaze.
"Subordinate Wizard Emperor greets Master."
"The Divine Soul of this body has been completely suppressed."
Kong Yu bowed in salute.
Wan Lixuan, seeing this scene, grew even more respectful of his Master, Shi Chuan.
A Core Formation Great Cultivator so easily assisted an alien soul in occupying Kong Yu's Physical Body. Such a feat could not have been accomplished without means comparable to a Nascent Soul.
"Good."
"You should first familiarize yourself with the Physical Body and try to extract from Kong Yu's Divine Soul what other secrets he has regarding his visit to Five Elements Immortal City."
"And all matters concerning him within the Twin Saints Sect. It would be best if you could subdue Kong Yu's Physical Body. Later, when you return to the Twin Saints Sect using Kong Yu's Physical Body, you can maintain a perfect disguise."
"To hide from the prying eyes of the Twin Saints Sect's Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators."
Shi Chuan said to him.
"Yes, Master!"
"Your subordinate obeys!"
"Master, this is Kong Yu's Storage Pouch. All Divine Soul imprints on the pouch have been erased. I now present it to Master!"
After the Wizard Emperor respectfully presented Kong Yu's Storage Pouch, a golden light flashed, and his figure disappeared.
Shi Chuan took the Storage Pouch and easily placed his own Divine Soul imprint on it.
"Hiss—!"
When Shi Chuan opened the Storage Pouch and his Divine Thought probed inside, he immediately gasped. Spirit Stones were piled up into several small mountains.
And among them, there were five third-tier spiritual items alone.
"Roar!"
At this moment, the blood serpent pearl artifact spirit within Shi Chuan's body suddenly stirred, emitting a rather excited low growl.
"Master, that demon serpent's inner core can enhance the Origin Power for the blood serpent pearl. After consuming it, there's a high chance it can advance to a second-tier high-grade."
Qin Zhizhi's voice sounded in Shi Chuan's ear.
"Since it can advance, then take it."
Shi Chuan took out the third-tier low-grade demon core from the Storage Pouch.
His Divine Thought probed inside. This demon core contained many demonic poisons, making it quite difficult even for a Core Formation Stage alchemist to refine it into a Medicinal Pill.
This demon core seemed to be specifically prepared for a certain demon Cultivator within the Dragon species.
The Demonic Fiend Vine also showed little interest in consuming this demon core.
"Thank you, Master!"
Blood light flickered in Shi Chuan's palm, and in a flash, a blood pearl appeared. From within the blood pearl, a blood Qi dragon head emerged and bit into the demon core, which contained a lot of demonic poison, swallowing it whole.
The Demonic Fiend Vine only conveyed the desire to devour the third-tier precious medicinal herbs within, and Shi Chuan took out all the third-tier spiritual items, allowing the Demonic Fiend Vine to consume them one by one.
Each time it consumed a third-tier spiritual item, it promoted the Demonic Fiend Vine's growth, but this efficiency was far less than the growth stimulated by Qu Linglu's Profound Wood Spiritual Energy.
Now, Qu Linglu had been taken as a Disciple by a Nascent Soul True Monarch. When she advanced to Core Formation, she would be able to leave the Sect.
That would be the time for Shi Chuan to feast.
"Fiend Dragon Pill!"
"The Evil Qi of this item is so strong!"
"Perhaps..."
Shi Chuan continued to inspect Kong Yu's Storage Pouch. As expected of a Core Formation Great Cultivator of the Yao Race, saying he was rich beyond measure was an insult to him.
The value within his Storage Pouch was far greater than that of Bei Xuan and Qing Yue from Five Elements Immortal City before.
The third-tier Fiend Dragon Pill. After consuming this pill, the Demonic Fiend Vine would surely give back terrifying Spiritual Qi, making the condensation of the third Law Seed a simple matter.
"Cultivate in seclusion!"
"Condense the third high-grade Law Seed in one go!"
Shi Chuan felt the vast, ocean-like Evil Qi within the third-tier Medicinal Pill, steadied his mind, and headed straight for the Evil Cave on Qingyue Peak where he Cultivated.
"Farewell, Master!"
Wan Lixuan hurriedly bowed in salute towards Shi Chuan's departing escape light.
... ...
Half a day later, late at night.
Before it was time to re-organize intelligence.
Shi Chuan naturally stepped into the Late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation under the impetus of massive Spiritual Qi.
The third high-grade Law Seed naturally formed within his body.
The Law Seed was shaped like a walnut, covered in scales, and emitted a faint Dragon's might.
The Law Seed was named Dragon Core!
It possessed three Divine Abilities: Dragon's Might, Shape-shifting, and Bloodline Transformation!
Dragon's Might, as the name suggests, possessed the pressure of the Dragon race. After transforming into a demon Cultivator's appearance, it would be even more difficult for Cultivators to see through.
Shape-shifting was skilled at changing forms, and this transformation could even modify the Divine Soul, temporarily possessing the talent of the Dragon race's Divine Soul and raising the upper limit of one's bone structure.
In the future, during Core Formation, this Divine Ability could be used to transform into a Dragon race member, and the quality of the formed core would surely reach an even higher level.
The last, Bloodline Transformation, allowed the birth of the Dragon race's Bloodline Power within the body. After merging with the main body,
Combined with the previous Physical Body and Divine Soul amplification, it would undoubtedly be an invincible existence within the Foundation Establishment Stage. As for Cultivators in the Early Core Formation stage, perhaps he could contend with them, but whether he could survive after the fight was uncertain.
"Late Foundation Establishment Stage!"
"To achieve such progress in just a few years of Cultivating the Dao."
"Now, I have several Core Formation Demon Cultivators by my side, and I've subdued a Core Formation Great Cultivator's demon pet, and a Nascent Soul remnant soul as a servant."
"With the body of that Core Formation Great Cultivator's demon pet, the Wizard Emperor's remnant soul might be able to attempt to advance to Nascent Soul within a year."
"Now that the Twin Saints Sect is targeting the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range, chaos is gradually emerging, already affecting the Cultivator Families within the Hunting Spirit Basin."
"Once Kong Yu, disguised by the Wizard Emperor, takes action to eliminate demons, the demon Cultivators in the mountains will naturally not let it go, and will target the Human Race Cultivator within the Hunting Spirit Basin."
"After obtaining the Nine Heavens Sword Qi Art, I will return to my Family in this life."
"Before, I didn't have the power to protect myself, and there were many threats around me."
"But now I have reached the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, and the next goal is Core Formation."
"It's time to resolve the Karma of this life."
Shi Chuan recalled the situation of his Family in this life.
At that time, Shi Chuan's Family was just a declining Cultivation Family descendant. There were only two Qi Refining Cultivators in the Family, and both were only at the Early Qi Refining Stage, unable to become even the lowest Cultivator Family.
After his Spiritual Root was detected, word leaked out, and Cultivators from the Purple Cloud Sect, who were recruiting Disciples, came to their door and took him away by means of forced purchase and sale.
After being robbed midway, he then made a detour into the Yellow Springs Demon Sect.
He was treated as a quota for earning contribution points by the Demon Sect Disciples, becoming a miscellaneous worker for refining corpses.
In the decade or so before this, he had received protection from his Family. Even when the Family was in its most difficult times, all good things were left for him.
The Family he grew up with, as Shi Chuan recalled.
He had never experienced such emotions in his previous life on Earth. It could be said that during his weakest time, he received over ten years of protection from his Family and did not perish midway.
Now, he only needed to secretly help them a little, allowing the Family to join Five Elements Immortal City for protection and avoid being harmed by demon Cultivators.
And this process did not require exposing his true identity.
... ...
Currently, the smallest Family governed by the Twin Saints Sect must have three Cultivators.
And they also need to have at least one Cultivator at Qi Refining Stage four or above. They can be certified and registered at a nearby Twin Saints Sect affiliated Sect market or a certain stronghold.
After registration, they will receive the protection and jurisdiction of the Twin Saints Sect. Cultivators from the Twin Saints Sect's subordinate forces will also provide the Cultivator Family with spiritual rice seeds and allocate some fragmented Spiritual Veins for the Cultivator Family to Cultivate.
In this way, the Cultivator Family can slowly accumulate resources by cultivating spiritual rice, continuously multiply their Family members, and rapidly grow stronger!
Moreover, the Twin Saints Sect also stipulated that the more Cultivators a Family had, the more spiritual fields they would be rewarded.
Now that Shi Chuan had learned some things about the Twin Saints Sect from the Wizard Emperor, he also understood that everything the Twin Saints Sect did, all the support for Cultivator Families, was for the Human Race's Luck within the Hunting Spirit Basin.
