Starting with a Wasted Spiritual Root to Embark on Demonic Cultivation

On the day of his spiritual root test, he was found to possess a fifth-grade root. In this lifetime, it would be nearly impossible to break through the Mid Qi Refining stage.

The immortal sec...

Chapter 696 Perfecting the "Taiyin Refining Body Treasure Scroll"

Chapter 696 Perfecting the "Taiyin Refining Body Treasure Scroll"

Six months later.

Wang Yu flicked his sword, wiping away the blood that stained it. Before him, a giant ape, over a hundred feet tall and as large as a mountain, lay unwillingly on the ground.

The top-tier missions in the True Demon Order mostly require cultivators to deal with beings at the weak Dao Integration level, and such beings are rare in the Demon Refining Domain.

In just six months, he cleared out many killing missions.

The number of Class A certificates they received was only about twenty, and with the benefits from their dual identities over the past few years, it was roughly enough to exchange for a protective charm.

The demon's soul was collected into the Soul-Honoring Banner, and the corpse was stored in the inner celestial realm.

Wang Yu vanished into the void, and after a few breaths, he returned to the Demon Slaughtering Hall in Holy Ring City. A wisp of divine thought entered the world within the banner and began to communicate with the Candle Maiden.

The space inside the Soul Banner is completely different from the beginning.

The inky black soil stretched endlessly, with countless ribs, like those ripped from giants, scattered across the land, and a chilling, ghostly mist enveloped the entire area.

One by one, the demonic beasts transformed into ghostly spirits like black smoke.

It keeps roaring through this world.

There are also monsters formed from solidified bones, wandering across the boundless land, and a turbid yellow river that divides the land into several parts.

This is the material manifestation of the Yellow Springs Dao and the White Bone Dao.

The Soul Banner is a tool for proving the Dao that Wang Yu carefully prepared for the "Yellow Springs Avenue". The White Bone Dao within it comes from the origin of the Demon God, and in terms of quantity, it contains about 5% "Bone Puppet Dao Fruit".

This part was not under Wang Yu's control.

Instead, it was brought by the materials and directly belonged to the spirit of the artifact. The winding Yellow Springs River was the main body of the Soul Banner, and it was also the embodiment of the Dao traces that he personally inscribed into it.

Compared to the Heavenly Demon Diagram, the Soul Banner has only barely entered the category of Earthly Profound Spiritual Treasure. Its main direction for future improvement is the Yellow Springs Evil Ghost Dao Fruit!

At the source of the turbid yellow river, a magnificent palace stands tall.

The King of the Underworld sat high on his throne.

Below were demon souls that had reached the peak of the Void Refinement stage. Most of them were new souls that Wang Yu had hunted in the past six months, and after transformation, they had dropped by half a level.

Or perhaps they never even had the rudimentary form of a Dao Fruit.

Strictly speaking, she is not a universally recognized being of the Dao. The Candle Maiden chose another path, which was to assist the "Emperor of the Underworld" in ruling this netherworld.

She used the divine markings of the evil god of the underworld to transform the land into the underworld.

It can subtly enhance the strength of those demon souls, and sort out the earth veins to form yin veins. The only artifact of the land, the [Netherworld Lamp], is also placed in the Yin Emperor's Palace.

The aid of the spirit opens wisdom and gathers fortune, stabilizing one's position.

Wang Yu's arrival was primarily to inspect the changes within the Soul Refining Banner's internal space. If nothing unexpected happened, once he left the Demon Refining Domain, this place would be flooded with a massive number of living souls.

Help him build an army of demons.

The process of creating arrays, awakening intelligence, and cultivating usable ghost generals also requires the help of the Candle Maiden. The most important task is to completely integrate the essence of these demon souls into the Soul Banner.

He passively increases his mastery of the "Demon Path Fruit." The Yellow Springs Path is not ranked high in his mind; ahead of it are the Space Path, Frost Moon Path, Power Path, and Thunder Path.

After the Slaughter Path is pushed up to 10%, it's still a long way from getting a turn in the Yellow Springs. Ultimately, it's just a matter of time. But Wang Yu won't slow down the rate of improvement of his fundamental realm because of this.

Otherwise, wouldn't all the extraordinary talent he acquired be wasted? The fundamental realm is the most important thing. If one can suppress others with their realm, then some shortcomings in the laws are not so important.

Moreover, his advantage on the path of slaughter has already surpassed ordinary standards.

"Candle Maiden, do you have any further development plans?"

"This evil god of the underworld said respectfully."

"Little Ancestor, everything is basically arranged. These tens of millions of demon souls seem like a lot, but their quality varies greatly, and there are even Qi Refining demon souls..."

"To achieve a significant improvement, the number of souls inside the Soul Banner must reach at least a hundred million. Then, let them devour each other to cultivate Ghost Kings and Ghost Generals!"

"The King of the Underworld also needs a large amount of Yin Soul essence to enhance his power. I can temporarily take over his shortcomings in intelligence, and then hand him over to him to lead once he develops spirituality."

Wang Yu nodded.

"I understand, thank you for your hard work."

"It is the candle maid's good fortune!"

After a brief understanding, Wang Yu withdrew his divine thought and began to consider whether to prioritize the Venerable Soul Banner. However, he thought of how it could draw upon the law lightning of the Primordial Thunder Pool to accelerate his comprehension of the Great Dao.

I gave up on that idea.

As for the Candle Maiden's identity, since she did it in front of the True Demon Token and no trouble has come knocking, it shouldn't be a problem.

Next.

After exchanging a treasure called the "Life-Giving Flag" from the Treasure Pavilion for protection against calamity, Wang Yu went to the Bottomless Blood Abyss to visit his nominal mentor, the Holy Pill Master.

…………

"You want to go to the Moon God Star?"

"yes."

Inside the Platinum Temple, the Saint Pill Mage stroked his long beard, somewhat surprised by Wang Yu's request. Although he paid special attention to this young man, he had even taken Qing Qing away last time.

But part of the reason was the request of the Great Demon King.

He was merely undertaking a mission from the lineage to refine elixirs here.

It's impossible to keep an eye on Wang Yu every moment, so naturally, I wouldn't know what he's thinking.

After a moment of contemplation.

"I can help you, but the Taiyin Main Star is related to a secret of the human race's past. Whether you can go up there depends on the Demon Lord's decision."

"Thank you for relaying the message, teacher."

That's all.

The Holy Dan Mage took out a black talisman covered with silver patterns, with a blank center. He wrote his request on it in Blood Demon script and then burned it.

This peculiar way of presenting memorials was something Wang Yu had never seen before. The reason for this was, of course, that it was no easy matter to meet the Demon Lord.

Being able to deliver the message to the Demon Lord is already a testament to Saint Dan's extraordinary status.

After doing all this.

Master Saint Dan said, "Go back and wait. I will let you know when there is a result."

"Okay, thank you for your help, teacher."

Wang Yu cupped his hands in thanks and was about to leave when he saw the space inside the hall distort.

A single word, "quasi," is branded into the void.

Upon seeing this, the old man and the young man exchanged bewildered glances. Clearly, neither of them had expected the Demon Lord to be so free, responding in just a few breaths.

Master Saint Dan smiled wryly and said, "It seems you have caught the Demon Lord's eye. If you have any inconveniences in the future, just come to me directly."

"I understand, then this matter..."

"Come with me."

Half an hour later.

Brother Nitian stepped out of the teleportation array, looked around for a while, and scratched his head a little: "Why is it you again? This time you went directly to the Great Demon Heaven to borrow a passage. That's great. I don't even get this kind of treatment."

Wang Yu did not respond.

Instead, he glanced sideways and asked, "Brother Nitian, are you in a position like a teleporter?"

"certainly."

"Who arranged this? They're up to no good!"

"Naturally, it was earned by my brother through military merit. Who dares to say otherwise? Hehe."

Obviously.

Brother Nitian knew what Wang Yu wanted to express, but he was clearly enjoying it. He was deliberately trying to disgust those talented juniors, or perhaps he needed to do this to cultivate that "idiot domain".

"Let's go, we're a bit pressed for time this time."

…………

It has undergone several consecutive relocations via interdimensional teleportation arrays.

Wang Yu arrived at his destination feeling a bit dizzy and disoriented.

at this time.

He and his brother Nitian were standing at the entrance of a palace, surrounded by the magnificent starry sky of the cosmos. It must be a teleportation point set up by the Great Demon Heaven in the vast Immortal Realm.

Apart from a few armored guys wielding spears guarding the teleportation array.

There was almost no one.

But the moment Wang Yu turned his head, a surge of emotion rose from the bottom of his heart, making him unable to look away.

The main star of the Moon came into view.

A rich Yin energy radiated from it, making his body, mind, and spirit feel waves of comfort.

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."

"good."

Wang Yu nodded subconsciously and took a step straight into the Cosmic Sea. Once a cultivator in the Void Refinement stage has opened up a blessed land, they can survive in the Cosmic Sea for a long time.

However, due to its speed limitations, it is difficult to travel through the cosmic ocean.

Generally, it is only when one reaches the Dao Integration stage that one begins to travel throughout the entire universe.

The main star of the Moon is not far away.

There's no need to worry about that. With his speed, he can cover more than 200,000 kilometers in just a few steps. After using the True Demon Token to open the protective array set up by the human race on the outside, he can proceed.

They landed instantly in front of a huge osmanthus tree.

This time, what he witnessed was the real thing, not a projection or anything like that. Wang Yu couldn't help but touch it, feeling a genuine sense of familiarity.

Look around.

They discovered that there were no Yin-type spiritual items such as the Yin True Flame, Moonstone Soul Jade, or Guanghan Flower, which was obviously different from the Ice Prison Realm, a place that no one ever visited.

This is the Taiyin Main Star of the Vast Immortal Realm.

It is also the source of the Yin in the vast Heavenly Dao, so it is impossible not to protect it. The spiritual creatures born there will definitely be collected. In this way, he has nothing else to do.

One can only sigh in regret.

but.

Having finally arrived at such a convenient location as the Taiyin Main Star, Wang Yu switched all his items to the [Taiyin Principles] to comprehend the mysteries of Taiyin.

At this moment, both Frost Moon and Soul Source Dao Fruits can undergo corresponding growth.

People say there are three thousand Great Paths, but in reality there are only twelve fundamental Great Paths:

Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Ice.

Time, space, fate, cause and effect.

These are also considered to be the first and most powerful Daos born at the beginning of the universe, with countless immortal-level Dao Fruits to which they can be attached, making them extraordinary.

Frost Moon is the Dao Fruit formed by the fusion of "Frost," a branch of the Great Dao of Ice, and "Moon," a branch of the Great Dao of Yin. No matter which Great Dao one comprehends, it can promote the growth of the Frost Moon Dao Fruit.

As for which path it will ultimately be guided to, that depends on which path is unique and currently aligns more closely with the true meaning of Taiyin.

Upon landing on the Taiyin Main Star, the environment there allowed him to comprehend the laws at least ten times faster, with various Daoist principles constantly flowing through his mind.

Every blade of grass, every tree, every grain of sand, and every stone here.

They all seemed to contain boundless Taiyin mysteries, far more real and powerful than the projection stars he had visited before. If he could obtain the Taiyin main star, he could devour it completely.

Tsk tsk... I can't even imagine!

The Taiyin main star of the vast immortal realm cannot be lost, but the Taiyin main stars of other immortal realms are not so certain, and there is still a chance.

After three days and three nights of contemplation, the progress was increased by 1%.

【Placement Column 1: Taiyin Principle (6.1%)】

"A decent return."

certainly.

Considering that he was here to complete the "Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Book", Wang Yu did not waste any more time and flew directly into the crown of the laurel tree.

The deeper you go, the larger the space becomes.

In his eyes, the tree trunk gradually transformed into a piece of white jade-like land, and the "Starry Sky Moon Temple" stood not far away, compared to the projection.

The feeling of being grounded is more real.

As he approached the cultivation site of the former Starry Sky Dao Master, Moon Venerable, the Taiyin Law became even more active, and Wang Yu, familiar with the place, arrived in front of a screen wall.

The above is the scripture recorded in the ancient script of the Star God.

There is absolutely no barrier to reading for him.

"The complete 'Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Book'..."

After sitting cross-legged, Wang Yu began to comprehend the mystery. His Taiyin Yuan Shen (Primordial Spirit of the Taiyin) leaped out of his head, and a palm-sized figure sat cross-legged three inches above his head.

The scriptures on the screen wall materialized and surged toward him continuously.

The technique was completed at an extremely fast speed.

at the same time.

Perhaps it was the culmination of accumulated strength that led to its eventual breakthrough. The three Taiyin Divine Patterns intertwined continuously, and the Divine Path reached its peak, giving birth to the Great Dao Flower, the Taiyin Divine Lotus.

The abundant Yin energy from the main star Taiyin surged forth wildly.

They intentionally helped him condense the fourth Taiyin Divine Rune. According to the Star God's realm, the fourth divine rune represents the power of merging with the Dao, and his comprehension of the laws soared.

—A sudden realization!

This is an ancient and legendary opportunity among cultivators. The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the benefits of sudden enlightenment, and the more profound one's understanding of the Great Dao of Taiyin will be.

It even gave him a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

A breakthrough in primordial spirit is imminent.

…………

at the same time.

With nothing else to do, the Demon Lord's clone, who had recently finished dealing with the Insect God Clan world cluster and properly arranged the breeding world, had been focusing some of his attention on Wang Yu, who had entered the Taiyin Main Star.

He truly saw his Yin Primordial Spirit.

Only then did the Demon Lord's clone, who was in charge of dealing with mundane matters, assert this.

"As expected, he has cultivated the Star God's inheritance. Judging from Wang Yu's recent developments, could it be that he is planning to leave the Demon Refining Domain?"

He rubbed his chin.

Recalling the various causes and effects surrounding Wang Yu, the Demon Lord's avatar's face darkened, deeply dissatisfied that his own demonic prodigy had been marked by so many people.

It's not clean anymore!

As for Xuande, it's one thing, since his background and origins are bound to be involved. However, the fact that the Azure Emperor and the Candle Dragon Demon Emperor have invested in him one after another is not something he wants to see.

"It seems that once he's ready and breaks through to the Dao Integration Realm, what he wishes for might be related to the Star God... or perhaps the legacy of the Myriad Transformations Demon Emperor?"

The Demon Lord's clone thought for a moment and decided to prepare a copy of each.

The Star God is a taboo secret of the human race, and not just anyone can know about it. But since Wang Yu has this opportunity, he has also developed the ability of the Heavenly Demon Seizing the Dao.

The ancient corpse of the Star God will be provided by the Demon Lord.

Furthermore, this opportunity to make a wish is one of the few times the two of them can be together, and he is wondering whether he should have the true form come in person.

Because whether it's the Star God inheritance or the Myriad Transformations inheritance.

All of them are more likely to reach the "near-immortal realm" than ordinary immortal seeds. The Starry Sky Dao Lord is an alternative path to enlightenment, which does not conform to the mainstream, but it is also a rare opportunity.

The transmission of myriad forms goes without saying.

This is clearly different from the Myriad Transformations Heavenly Demon he knew; it was obviously developed by Wang Yu, and if it could form a systematic inheritance...

The Demon Lord's avatar was willing to support Wang Yu in opening the tenth meridian of the Demonic Path, as his innate True Demonic Body was extremely suitable for Demonic cultivation.

"Let me inform him first and see if he's available."
