Chapter 588 Complete Transformation into Demon, Finally Arriving at the Daoist Canon

But then I thought about how he used it to cultivate the Ten Directions Frozen Demon Path.

That means the higher one's level of understanding and the stronger one's power, the sooner one will be affected by his demonic influence, until one's personality is completely distorted and one becomes his demonic slave.

In this way...

The more demonic energy you absorb, the better.

Once you understand this section...

The Frozen Demon said, "Since that's the case, I, the Demon Lord, will grant your wish. Eat as much as you can."

As soon as he finished speaking, a large amount of extremely pure frozen demonic energy gathered into a funnel-shaped vortex and rushed towards the weakened Wang Yu.

—Pour it in fiercely!

It's like a child selling their grandfather's land without a care in the world!

This new consciousness only regretted the lack of control over its power, unaware that it was an absolutely high-level demonic energy, even if it was only passively spreading out from the demonic body.

However, it also surpasses the spiritual energy contained in top-grade spirit stones.

Such pure frost demonic energy is definitely a top-tier cultivation resource in this world. No wonder it was needed as a guide to condense the demonic nascent soul back then, laying a solid foundation for the demonic path.

Now that he has forged an innate demonic body, Wang Yu's vision and abilities are on a completely different level, and he has keenly noticed a problem.

Before reaching the Nascent Soul stage, so-called demonic cultivators are actually just normal cultivators; their demonic arts and secret techniques have not achieved true effectiveness or value.

It may look bizarre and bloody, but only by condensing a demonic infant and cultivating demonic essence can one be considered to have truly entered the path of this art.

However, after breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, Wang Yu's golden primordial spirit never showed any demonic characteristics, which made him suspect that something was missing in his breakthrough. However, since he had never made any mistakes in cultivation, he did not pay much attention to it. Now, he has broken through and established anew.

Upon sudden realization, he naturally resolved to solve this problem.

"Is it demonic transformation...?"

The innate demonic body brings terrifying aptitude for demonic cultivation, and the Ten Directions Frozen Demonic Path is also an incomparably pure demonic art, containing countless secret techniques and supernatural powers.

There are ways to accelerate cultivation.

Although it is a demonic path, if one has a sufficient foundation, there are ways to improve quickly, it's just not as famous as the Blood Path.

"Once a demonic infant is formed, a demonic soul must also be cultivated, otherwise it will become a hidden danger on the path."

Now that everything is starting over, he also has the opportunity to make up for what he didn't have.

"Extreme Cold Demon Soul..."

"—Refine!"

With a thought, he completely unleashed the terrifying potential of his innate demonic body. More than a dozen vortexes of demonic energy quickly comprehended the power and rushed into Wang Yu's body with great eagerness and madness.

The Frozen Demon was stunned by the new consciousness.

"Such strong talent! He is probably dozens of times better than ordinary geniuses of the demon race. Only the top geniuses can compare with him."

After the initial shock, he actually laughed.

"Such potential, if you could become the precursor to this Demon Lord's body, it would be a wonderful thing. Absorb... the more you absorb, the less you can control yourself, and in the end, it will all benefit me."

Wang Yu sat cross-legged, facing the iceberg.

Although they couldn't hear what the other person was thinking, they were still on guard.

The Demon-Crossing Mantra occupies eight slots and operates synchronously. Although this arrangement is only temporary, the purification effect it brings is far more than eight times greater.

Pure demonic energy entered his body.

He actually used demonic energy to retrace his cultivation path, and within just ten breaths he had recovered to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. The Frozen Demon's new consciousness sensed something was wrong, but did not discover any problems.

Half an hour later, Wang Yu's body trembled, and he returned to the Foundation Establishment stage.

While it appears to be a reconstruction, the essence of the work is still restoration. He is using his primordial spirit to control demonic energy to cleanse his body, and in this process, his innate demonic body plays an important role.

With his divine essence already established, what he needs is an endless supply of energy to quickly complete his recovery.

With each threshold crossed, the newly formed, weak body also benefits, not to the point of complete recovery, but certainly recovering to about 10%.

In the following half day, without any new golden core forming in his body, Wang Yu's aura strength had already reached the level of a golden core, and his speed of absorbing demonic energy further accelerated.

now.

Even with the Frozen Demon's sluggish new consciousness, it realized that what Wang Yu said was false; this was definitely not cultivation, but more like... recovery.

What is your intention?

The pure demonic energy accumulated here over hundreds of thousands of years is more than enough to restore one to the Golden Core stage, let alone break through to the Void Refinement stage. What Wang Yu asked for was just a drop in the ocean.

It's not enough to make him stop.

It's just that the feeling of being deceived is unpleasant, and it's even more unclear what the other party's purpose is.

"Hmph, I'll let you suck to your heart's content. Once your personality is twisted, this Demon Lord will be able to unravel all the mysteries."

As the saying goes: "Practice Qi in the morning and build a foundation by evening; the Golden Elixir rises with the wind in a hundred days; the Nascent Soul is conceived in ten months; the Spirit Transformation and Void Refinement take three years; and the Tribulation Transcending in ten years is also within reach."

Whether such a divine being exists in the world remains to be seen.

However, the feeling of rebuilding one's foundation during the recovery process was incredibly intense. Demonic cultivators usually need to reach the Nascent Soul stage to be considered to have formally entered the field, but now he had to use demonic energy to change his foundation.

Replacing the foundation accumulated in the three stages of Qi Refining, Foundation Building, and Core Formation with demonic energy to reshape it is no different from starting over.

However, this only applies to the first three realms; it is a method to completely eliminate demonic influence.

The Nascent Soul that forms after the Demonic Infant doesn't need to be reshaped. Besides, he has already cultivated a Primordial Spirit, so there is absolutely no way he could condense a second Nascent Soul except through secret techniques.

Therefore, during the Nascent Soul stage, one can simply focus on recovery.

Then comes the process of transforming the primordial spirit into a demon.

suck!

Just inhale!

The more demonic energy he possessed, the faster he was reshaped. After about half a month, the recovery process from the Golden Core stage was completely over, and Wang Yu's aura officially entered the Nascent Soul stage.

Meanwhile, a change is quietly taking place.

Starting from the skin, flesh, tendons, bones, and internal organs, mysterious magical runes rapidly condensed, differing from the magical runes inherent in the innate magical body.

However, they also have something in common, as they both originate from the same magical rune mystery. When the two are combined, a transformation that is no simpler than breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage begins to take place.

Endless pure demonic energy invaded the cellular level from the flesh and blood level.

It fundamentally changed his bloodline composition.

Having experienced the Heavenly Demon Transformation technique countless times, Wang Yu immediately recognized it as a fundamental modification of the cultivation path.

The bloodline remains predominantly human, but it will incorporate the source of demonic energy, namely some of the advantageous characteristics of the demon race, thus becoming a hybrid species in a sense.

And the source of their bloodline... is an ancient demon!

This kind of existence is by no means an ordinary bloodline, nor is it a continuation of demonic blood, but rather a continuation of that mysterious demonic rune at the level of the Great Dao.

Wang Yu harbored some doubts, but did not stop the change.

Such an opportunity is extremely rare, perhaps only happening once in a lifetime.

According to ancient texts on demonic cultivation, the term "transformation into demons" does not refer to the madness of going astray in cultivation.

As is widely known.

The origin of the demonic path lies in the human race's imitation of the demonic race's cultivation methods. After countless years of evolution, demonic cultivators were born, and there are also those who can become immortals on this path!

Therefore.

Those who transform into demons are all true demonic seeds who have grasped the true meaning of this path and are walking on the right path; they are potential stocks with promising prospects for the Great Dao.

"It resembles bloodline but is not bloodline. It is probably the legendary primordial demonic rune. It is not surprising that someone at the peak of the Frozen Demon's power could have comprehended such a demonic rune and even engraved it into his own bloodline."

"After all, the ancient demon's realm has reached the level of a half-immortal, and he is only one step away from becoming an immortal."

"However, most people in the world are ignorant. If they have the opportunity to enter the True Spirit Realm in the future, they may be mistaken for a human-demon hybrid..."

A few distracting thoughts flashed through Wang Yu's mind, but he quickly suppressed them.

Trouble is for the future; in the present, there are only benefits and an increase in strength.

Our current strength is limited.

It's difficult to gain any insight from these primordial magic runes, but they are equivalent to carrying a great opportunity with him, which will surely become one of his best assistants in his future path to enlightenment.

In the short term, it can also help him gain stronger combat power.

The only side effect is that it will make it even more difficult for him to reproduce, with the difficulty being equivalent to a half-step True Immortal wanting to continue their bloodline, which would likely place extremely high demands on the mother.

As time goes by.

Some changes began to appear on his appearance. Scarlet-red runes appeared on his body, and magic ring totems formed at the ends of his limbs. His main torso was arranged in a way that resembled the rising of a dark sun.

His strong, muscular body exuded a wild and desolate aura.

A stream of information flowed into his mind, revealing it to be the bloodline inheritance from the demon race.

An unknown level of body-refining demonic art—[Primal Battle Body]!

This skill has four stages.

The Undying Demon Body, once cultivated, can possess a physique comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, with extremely strong regenerative abilities and the power to absorb life force and spiritual energy, even extracting absorbable nutrients from plants, trees, soil, and rocks.

An indestructible demonic body, cultivated to a level comparable to the Void Refinement Realm...

An immortal demonic body, cultivated to the point of being comparable to the Dao Integration Realm...

The Dark Sun Demon Body, when cultivated to the level of a Mahayana cultivator...

"The four stages of immortality, indestructibility, eternal life, and the dark sun each require different conditions and unique natural treasures of the demon race, making cultivation quite difficult."

"This top-tier body-refining inheritance of the demon race, although it cannot be directly cultivated, can be used as a foundation to completely change the core essence of the Undying Nether Dragon Technique."

Especially that ability to recover.

If a body cultivator's physique is cultivated to be too strong, it is extremely difficult to recover once it is damaged. The root cause lies in the recovery of that immortal power.

Qi and blood, and spirit and marrow are ranked later.

He suspected that the earliest method of body refinement was probably based on the cultivation method of this primitive battle body, otherwise there would be no reason for the immortal power condensed to be so similar to the demonic body cultivated by this method.

This inheritance can serve as a guiding light on his path of body refinement, but it cannot be copied completely.

After all, humans and demons are different.

This thought came to mind.

New changes continued to occur, and Wang Yu's body actually began to develop a second time. If his original physique was rather thin and pale, it was due to the physical transformation he underwent during the weak period of the Corpse Demon Secret Technique.

He now appears much more robust, and his pale skin has become rosy, giving him a healthier look.

The nails on the fingers and toes become sharp.

A layer of flesh-colored scales faintly forms beneath the skin, the upper limit of strength surges dramatically, and the toughness and potential of the bones, muscles, and tendons undergo a qualitative change.

This situation also led to his newly regenerated body receiving fundamental nourishment, and his recovery progress suddenly increased to 30%, with a small amount of immortal spiritual light already being reborn.

His eyes transformed into beastly pupils, like those of a wild beast; two demonic horns sprouted from his forehead; sharper tiger fangs grew from his upper jaw; and his aura became even more ferocious.

The changes just now were still mild and not noticeable.

However, this subsequent change completely endowed his physical body with demonic characteristics, allowing him to acquire the strengths of the other's physical potential, which in turn led to a change in his appearance.

Wang Yu disliked this change.

"Heavenly Demon Transformation!"

With a low shout in his heart, relying on the powerful effect of this method on bloodlines, the Myriad Transformations ability directly erased these characteristics from the genetic level.

He retained only the layer of scales that could conceal his appearance. His frail body was his very foundation. He could accept the benefits brought by the demon blood, but he absolutely could not accept any change in his appearance.

The demonization process has now completely ended.

Even without transforming into the Ice Phoenix form, his cultivation speed had reached the level of a low-grade True Spirit Bloodline, and even exceeded it by a small margin.

And he discovered.

Even without activating the Demon-Crossing Mantra, the demonic contamination caused by the ancient demon can be automatically resolved by him, thanks to the primordial demonic runes hidden in his bloodline.

It immediately began to devour massive amounts of demonic energy even more recklessly.

The rate at which his breathing recovered continued to climb.

Until... the demon soul takes shape!

The weakness and incompleteness of his primordial spirit made his transformation very smooth, even allowing him to recover 20% of his primordial spirit's injuries. His new demonic soul was entirely black and possessed demonic nature.

This gave him the instinct, or rather, the talent, to devour other primordial spirits to restore himself!

His cultivation level has also completely recovered to the Nascent Soul stage.

Although it was only one floor, it was enough to support his movements outside.

His primordial spirit is the foundation for his continued breakthroughs, and the sooner it is restored, the better.

Therefore, they decisively stopped their behavior of absorbing demonic energy.

With the help of the freezing magic tool.

Compressing a decades-long recovery process into a mere month is the limit of what he can do, and it cannot be delayed any longer.

Otherwise, if the Taoist Kongkong comes knocking on his door, he will still be unable to escape death.

Completely eradicating evil is more beneficial than harmful.

He even had new ideas about forging new natal magic weapons and natal artifacts. He had no choice before, but now he had an excellent opportunity to change things.

What seems like a misfortune may actually be a blessing in disguise; the ancients were right!

As his breathing became completely steady.

Wang Yu opened his eyes, and a dense demonic aura flashed through them. He was now the purest demonic cultivator in the Ice Prison, and even in the Upper Realm, cultivators like him were among the elite.

The only difference is in their knowledge and experience.

His supernatural abilities have always been a significant advantage over others in the same realm. He would never say that the laws of the lower realm are inferior to those of the upper realm. They are both supernatural abilities, but he has reached perfection while you have only achieved minor success.

He's going to crush us!

"Thanks."

The Frozen Demon's new consciousness was stunned. He hadn't expected that Wang Yu, who had devoured such a massive amount of demonic energy, would be completely unaffected. He hesitated for a moment.

"You're welcome?"

Hahahaha!

Seeing how silly and adorable the other party was, Wang Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud. He immediately stopped talking and instantly transformed into aurora and disappeared into the horizon.

Frozen Demon: "..."

No explanation is needed, and there's no need to pay attention.

Unable to help either side, once the goal is achieved, the value of the Frozen Demon will disappear. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, this should be the last time they meet.

in this way.

The Aurora Escape Technique, when cultivated to its peak, is one of the fastest escape techniques even among those in the Nascent Soul stage. In just half a month, Wang Yu retrieved the essence blood that had been placed in the desolate ancient plains and the seal of the Desire Demon.

After absorbing the power of the source, his physique recovered to 40% of its strength.

Then.

Using the partially refined Void Banner as the tool for opening up, they entered the spatial layer of the Ice Prison Realm and, guided by the Void Stele, finally arrived near the Void Dao Treasury.

This was a place he had long wanted to explore.

But I never expected that the unfinished business would be completed in this way. It's truly...the unpredictability of life!
