55: Practice a hundred times, and achieve qualitative change of great perfection!

Five ten-zhang tall Golden Body Avatars slammed down, one after another, crushing the Gu and Human Corpse Puppets that surged out of the cave.

When the enormous Golden Body Avatar stood there, it felt as if it was squashing insects.

Li Yan was under immense consumption, yet he remained composed.

"Perfect, I'll use these Gu and Human Corpse Puppets to practice."

"They are also pitiful people; their minds have been hollowed out by the Gu, and their Three Ethereal Souls and Seven Corporeal Spirits are imprisoned within their Physical Bodies."

Watching their decaying bodies turn into ashes under the golden light, and countless wandering souls fly away, each breaking free from the restraints of their Physical Bodies and rushing to Reincarnation.

For Li Yan, it was considered a good deed for the day.

Meanwhile, outside the mountain-protecting formation.

Quiet Void Taoist, who had lost his head, was sitting cross-legged in a tree hollow.

His skull had already regrown, and flesh and blood were slowly recovering.

Within the stark white skull, two deep eye sockets were as profound and terrifying as black holes, and crimson Qi condensed into two eyeballs within them.

The Old Taoist looked at the wandering souls flying everywhere, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"This kid's killing speed is so fast?"

"He can kill hundreds of the Human Corpse Puppets and Gu I summoned in a single breath?"

"Is this the strength of the eighth layer of the Ban Xue Realm?"

The Old Taoist didn't know that although those Human Corpse Puppets and Gu were formidable, they were facing Li Yan's Golden Body Avatar.

When a Golden Body Avatar slammed down, it was like scorching sunlight, purifying all the insects within the Gu.

If it were an ordinary Cultivator in the Ban Xue Realm, facing the endless Human Corpse Puppets and Gu within the Gu Cavern, it would undoubtedly be very difficult.

But he just happened to meet Li Yan, this eccentric.

Quiet Void Old Taoist looked at the wandering souls flying everywhere, and he mused: "This kid's Storage Ring should contain some Qi Spirit Medicine."

"But at this rate of consumption, how long can you last?"

"Heh, killing this kid and refining him into a Corpse Puppet and raising Gu would certainly be good."

Quiet Void Taoist was not flustered; he felt that victory was within his grasp, and he only needed to wait for Li Yan to exhaust his Qi Spirit Medicine, then he would surely die.

Little did he know.

Inside the cave, Li Yan opened another bottle of [Fancore Fluid] and drank it in large gulps.

"Whoosh, refreshing!"

"After the side effects of this venom turned positive, it's a hundred times stronger than the strong liquor I used to drink."

"Once you get used to it, it's quite enjoyable."

Li Yan let out a 'burp,' feeling that this Fancore Fluid was potent and he enjoyed this spicy, stimulating sensation.

And after drinking the Fancore Fluid, his whole body's Qi also circulated faster.

Wiping away the remaining venom from the corners of his mouth, Li Yan looked at the continuous stream of Human Corpse Puppets and Gu attacking him, and couldn't help but sigh.

"How many people has this Quiet Void Old Ghost harmed? Although I know these have accumulated over hundreds of years, the quantity is still a bit terrifying."

"This Old Ghost has lived for hundreds of years; even if he only harmed a thousand people each year, the accumulated Human Gu would probably be an astronomical figure."

"However, my Blood Shadow Immortal Art is becoming more and more proficient."

Li Yan could feel four blurred shadows appearing beneath his feet.

Under the condition of hundredfold Cultivation, his application of the Blood Shadow Immortal Art became more and more masterful.

He was already close to touching the threshold of Major Achievement in the Cultivation Technique; if the shadows doubled, that would be 8 sub-shadows!

Just at this moment.

A voice passed through the barrier and entered the cave.

"Li Yan, kid, I didn't expect you to last this long?"

Clearly, Quiet Void Taoist, unable to bear the silence, transmitted his voice into the cave.

Li Yan sneered but did not reply.

He knew that villains die from talking too much, and not speaking was the wisest choice.

This could prevent the opponent from figuring him out.

There's a saying, 'the more you speak, the more likely you are to make a mistake,' and the more you talk, the easier it is for the other party to find your flaws.

However, Li Yan's caution was mistaken by Quiet Void Taoist as a lack of strength to speak.

The Old Taoist's voice once again entered the cave.

"Li Yan, junior, do you know that what is hidden deep within this cave is the result of my many years of work?"

"The more harsh the environment, the more Yin and poisonous creatures can be nurtured."

"It's only just begun, and you're already speechless? Junior, how much longer can you last?"

Seeing Li Yan not speak, Quiet Void's skull let out bursts of triumphant laughter.

"It seems this kid is already starting to feel strained; within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he will surely exhaust his Qi and drink all the Spirit Liquid in his hand!"

Quiet Void was not in a hurry; he just sat in the tree hollow and waited patiently!

Waiting for Li Yan to be exhausted by the Human Gu he raised; the Human Gu inside would naturally open the barrier door for him.

However, the situation inside was a completely different scene.

Li Yan held the treasure lotus lamp, his right hand forming a seal.

Corpse Puppet Su Mo stood obediently beside him, holding the medicine bottle for Li Yan.

"Master, take your medicine."

Su Mo opened the medicine bottle and personally fed the Fancore Fluid to Li Yan.

Li Yan only needed to focus his energy on the blood glass treasure lotus lantern in his hand and activate the Blood Shadow Immortal Art.

"Shadow Art, Grandmaster Realm!!"

As Li Yan spoke these words, the 4 sub-shadows beneath his feet doubled to 8!

From入門 (Beginner), Minor Achievement, Major Achievement, Grandmaster, only one Perfection Realm remained!

Li Yan had vaguely touched the threshold of the Perfection Realm; his random practice of the Bloodline Burning Lantern Technique could increase his Cultivation speed by a hundredfold.

Coupled with actual combat, his understanding of the Blood Shadow Immortal Art became even deeper.

"If the Cultivation Technique reaches Perfection, it can impact a qualitative change!"

"If this Blood Shadow Immortal Art undergoes a qualitative change, then what would it be like?"

Addicted to Cultivating, he took another sip of Fancore Fluid to replenish his magical power.

He really had to thank Quiet Void Taoist; there were so many Human Corpse Puppets and Gu in the cave for him to practice on.

Controlling 9 shadows and 9 Golden Body Avatars simultaneously was also a great test of his mental power.

Multitasking was the only way to train the proficiency of the Cultivation Technique.

This kind of intense focus, constantly comprehending the subtleties of the Blood Shadow Immortal Art, gave him an inexplicable sense of excitement.

He felt as if he was vaguely touching a threshold; this Golden Body Avatar seemed to be on the verge of a qualitative change.

And after the sub-shadows doubled, the killing speed of the 9 Golden Body Avatars became even faster.

The Human Corpse Puppets crawling out of the cave were no longer enough for Li Yan to kill.

Li Yan made a decisive decision, leaving the main Golden Body Avatar to guard him.

With a flick of his hand, he sent the 8 sub-shadows deep into the cave.

"Go!"

Only by letting the eight sub-shadows go deep and surround them, allowing the Golden Body Avatar to simultaneously deal with the Gu from three directions, could he squeeze out his own potential.

As the eight Golden Body Avatars continuously bombarded, Li Yan felt exhausted.

But he unhesitatingly drank two bottles of Fancore Fluid; the spicy sensation forcefully boosted his Divine Sense and mental power.

"This opportunity must not be missed; if I can seize this chance today to break through the Blood Shadow Immortal Art to Great Perfection in one go."

"Then I can exit the formation and let the sub-shadows confront Quiet Void Old Taoist."

Li Yan was racing against time, not wanting to miss the chance to kill Quiet Void Taoist!

Quiet Void Taoist had lost his head and was currently in a weakened state; once his Cultivation Technique reached Great Perfection, he would have the confidence to kill him.

Looking at the eight Golden Body Avatars before him, Li Yan felt strained, but he had an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

"It's coming... that feeling is coming!"

He could already see the shadows beneath his feet changing; the Great Perfection of the Cultivation Technique and the moment of its qualitative change were about to arrive.
