Li Ming had already visited the God of Wealth Pavilion before, spending a lot of Yuan Crystals and money to buy many auxiliary materials.
The purpose was to properly refine the essence and blood of the demon.
He also asked Zhao Xuanwu about the essence and blood of demons.
This thing is truly a treasure. When combined with other materials, it can bring great benefits to martial artists without any side effects.
Of course, this thing also has limitations.
It contains the evil nature of demons, and even with the neutralization of various materials, it can still affect users whose minds are not firm.
Furthermore, to fully refine the power of this essence blood, one needs a solid foundation; otherwise, the body will not be able to withstand this power.
The Refining Spirit Realm is the minimum requirement for a martial artist to refine the essence and blood of demons to improve their cultivation.
The essence and blood of lower-level demons are generally used to prolong the lifespan of martial artists with low cultivation levels.
"Let's begin... There's not much of this demon blood essence, and we don't know how much benefit it will bring."
Li Ming mixed the materials with the essence of demons and used his true energy to heat and fuse them together.
As a violent reaction occurred, Li Ming forcefully suppressed it with his powerful true energy, preventing the energy from dissipating. He didn't know how much time had passed.
"It's a success!"
A pill the size of a quail egg appeared in Li Ming's palm.
This object is entirely white, as if it were carved from white jade.
If you didn't know better, you'd think this was some kind of magic pill.
Li Ming held the demon blood pill in his hands and examined it carefully, his heart pounding in his chest.
This object seemed to possess an unparalleled beauty, exerting a tremendous attraction on him.
Or rather, it has a great attraction for martial artists!
This is the evil nature that demon blood cannot erase. If a martial artist's mind is not firm, he can easily be lost by this power, then go astray and become extreme in temperament.
Even a martial artist like Li Ming, who is at the Refining Spirit Realm, cannot, in principle, continuously refine within a short period of time.
"I just don't know how effective it will be!"
Li Ming calmed himself down a bit and made himself composed.
The method for refining the Demon Blood Pill was something that our human ancestors had tried countless times before they finally obtained.
His demon blood essence is of intermediate level, and the demon blood pills he can make are not of high level either, but the fact that so many people are chasing after them means that the effects of this product must be quite good.
"Let's eat it directly, refine it, and see how it goes!"
Li Ming didn't hesitate for long and swallowed the pill.
The energy contained in the demon blood pill was gradually refined by Li Ming, and streams of power gradually filled Li Ming's limbs and bones.
Within the sea of consciousness.
The air was filled with chaotic energy, as if one were in a state of chaos.
Meanwhile, the illusory divine seed atop the ancient altar began to emit light and gradually solidify.
It seems like it's about to become reality in the next second.
"The effects of the Demon Blood Pill... are just too good!"
Even though he knew this item was extraordinary, Li Ming was still somewhat shocked.
He had taken such elixirs to increase cultivation before, but they had only had a limited effect on him.
Compared to the Demon Blood Pill, it's like heaven and earth.
This item is extremely effective, but its energy also carries a malevolent quality, making people unconsciously irritable and prone to destruction.
But Li Ming could endure all of this, and with time, this desire would naturally be erased by his martial will.
"This tiny pill is equivalent to several years of hard work for an ordinary person... For me, it is better than a month of cultivation."
Li Ming muttered to himself.
Given his talent, he could progress smoothly in the Refining Spirit Realm, his cultivation speed was extremely fast, and there would be no obstacles in his path.
It was truly remarkable that he could feel his cultivation level surge so dramatically.
His cultivation level has now reached the ninth level of Refining Spirit.
Breaking through to the Divine Power Realm is not far off!
...
Inside the Six Doors.
Li Ming saw Zhao Xuanwu and Lu Tian again, and noticed that the two looked rather unwell.
"What happened?"
Li Ming couldn't help but ask.
Seeing that Li Ming had asked, Lu Tian didn't try to hide anything and said in a deep voice:
"We have received information that the Blood God Cult is making unusual moves in Cangzhou... and has already carried out numerous blood sacrifice rituals in several other counties."
"Oh? What about Cangyang Prefecture?"
Li Ming frowned.
"There's been no movement for now... but that's precisely why I have a bad feeling about this."
Lu Tian's expression changed slightly, sensing something intriguing about the situation.
Rather than saying they dare not cause trouble in Cangyang County, it's more likely that the other side is planning something big.
Zhao Xuanwu also received instructions from the Six Doors that he needed to return to Cangzhou City.
Because a large-scale blood sacrifice took place in Qing County, the capital of the state.
Furthermore, it is suspected that several elders of the Blood God Cult have taken action, as they suspect that the Blood God Cult may target the state capital.
If they succeed, the imperial court will lose all face!
Therefore, Zhao Xuanwu could no longer remain in Cangyang County.
"Do you want to come to the capital with me?"
Zhao Xuanwu looked at Li Ming and said calmly.
"This junior has come to take his leave..."
Li Ming cupped his hands in greeting.
Li Ming briefly explained the purpose of his departure and stated that he would return immediately.
He has spent quite a bit of time in Cangyang County these past few days, and he wants to try his hand at both the inheritance and the divine weapon.
"That's fine then. If you need to find me, just come to the Six Doors in Cangzhou City... As for your path, you should walk it yourself. I was going to ask if you would like to go to Xuandu City, but I suppose you won't be going for the time being?"
"Hmm... I still need to improve my martial arts skills. I will definitely visit Uncle Zhao again when I have time."
"good."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuanwu merely nodded slightly, showing no intention of forcibly arranging things for Li Ming.
He could tell that Li Ming's cultivation was different from that of ordinary people; his cultivation had increased greatly in the few days he hadn't seen him...
This saved him a lot of trouble.
Many elders like to "guide" the younger generation, but it's really just to show off their seniority. Zhao Xuanwu himself has been through it all and won't interfere with Li Ming's cultivation.
Everyone has their own path, and interfering rashly will most likely only backfire.
Afterwards, Li Ming did not continue with the formalities, and after saying goodbye, he left the Six Doors.
He went to Yunzhou alone.
His whereabouts were also clearly observed by those who were interested.
...
The border area between Yunzhou and Qingzhou.
That is Liyang County.
To travel from Liyang County to Yunzhou, one must pass through Heishan Pass.
Not far outside Black Mountain Pass, a dozen or so warriors dressed in black and carrying long swords were hidden in the shadows.
These people were all disguised, covering their faces.
"I have received information that the thief Li Ming is heading this way... I would like to trouble you all to take action."
A clear, cool female voice rang out from the crowd.
"good."
A chorus of agreement followed.
One of the men, whose cultivation was the highest, said in a deep voice:
"I will do my best."
"We will show Li Ming the power of our Qingyun Sword Sect!"
This man is named Ye Xiu, the second senior brother of the Qingyun Sword Sect. In terms of talent, he considers himself to be one of the best in the sect.
However, due to his shorter time in the mountains compared to the current senior disciple Xu Chen, his cultivation level was not as high as Xu Chen's, and he had no outstanding achievements, he could only be ranked second.
Furthermore, due to his arrogant nature, he was not favored by the sect leader, Xie Xuan.
Ye Xiu was extremely troubled by this.
After all, there's no future in always being second best.
The resources of a sect are limited, but the most outstanding person receives far more resources than the second-best.
When there are good things or opportunities, the eldest brother is always the first choice...
In the long run, the gap will only widen.
After breaking through to the Divine Power Realm, he realized that with his talent, without the help of a sect, he would probably be stuck for quite some time, and it would be difficult to reach the Martial Saint Realm on his own.
But a few days ago, Xing Qingqing came to him with the sect leader's token, indicating that if he could kill Li Ming, he would be able to succeed.
He will surely gain the sect leader's attention and may even become the senior disciple of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
Hearing these words, Ye Xiu was extremely tempted.
You should know that the sect leader has already broken through to the Martial Saint realm.
In his eyes, Xing Qingqing could also represent the sect leader.
If he could gain the sect leader's favor, wouldn't he have a good chance of becoming the eldest disciple, or even become the next sect leader?
Therefore, after careful consideration, Ye Xiu decided to refuse Xing Qingqing's task.
After all, he knew that if he were to openly challenge Li Ming... he probably wouldn't be a match for him.
He had only recently broken through to the next level... while Li Ming already had the feat of killing a Grandmaster of Divine Power.
Furthermore, regarding the master of supernatural powers that Li Ming killed, some people have analyzed his strength and concluded that he was definitely not a weakling who had just entered the supernatural power realm.
Instead, it was a powerful young martial artist at the Divine Power Realm.
Although he is arrogant, it doesn't mean he's stupid.
However, Xing Qingqing suggested that they could go together to kill Li Ming.
Furthermore, there's no need for an open and aboveboard killing; one can also call upon some experts from within the sect.
Just kill them!
Furthermore, Xing Qingqing also offered many substantial benefits.
Faced with such a great temptation... Ye Xiu was ultimately swayed.
Nothing more.
She gave too much.
He didn't really doubt that the sect leader wanted to kill Li Ming, and he was quite tempted by it.
After all, Li Ming had already offended the Qingyun Sword Sect long ago, causing them to sever ties and apologize, which made him lose face.
The fact that Li Ming had killed Xing Wuming was not kept secret for long.
As Li Ming became famous, the martial arts techniques he displayed that day were easily recognized.
After the incident was exposed, Li Ming's reputation rose, while the reputation of the Qingyun Sword Sect continued to decline.
This also became a laughing stock among countless martial artists in Cangzhou.
He bluntly stated that the Qingyun Sword Sect was nothing special, and its sword cultivators were just a bunch of cowards.
However, as Li Ming's status continued to rise, the Qingyun Sword Sect, facing the power of the Six Doors, became very rational and ordered its disciples not to provoke them.
This has angered many disciples of the Qingyun Sword Sect, and even many elders have expressed their protest.
As a sect that has been passed down for hundreds of years, it has a profound foundation.
Under Ye Xiu and Xing Qingqing's guidance, many experts within the sect were also willing to take action.
The weakest of these people are experts at the half-step Refining God Realm, and most of them are experts at the Refining God Realm.
With the addition of two experts at the Divine Power Realm, forming a sword formation together, defeating Li Ming would be a piece of cake!
Ye Xiu was also very confident about this.
I'm asking you, how do you plan to lose!
