Chapter 369 Ice Demon Child, Fengzhou Prefecture
These three were only Foundation Establishment cultivators after all, and even if they knew some information, it wasn't comprehensive.
The reason they dared to occupy Xuan Gu Mountain was largely because there was a late-stage Core Formation cultivator in Fengzhou Prefecture who was their boss.
That's how Xuan Gu Mountain was acquired, and the news came from this Core Formation cultivator in the prefecture.
About three years ago.
Wang Yu had just been teleported to the desolate city for seclusion not long ago.
A chaotic battle involving high-level cultivators erupted at the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect's mountain gate. It was said that the sect leader had failed to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, lost his mind, and fought a great battle with the Three Demons of Blood Netherworld.
The result was astonishing: three top-tier demonic cultivators at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage were no match for the sect leader. What exactly happened remains unknown.
The news of the defeat spread far and wide.
Upon learning the news, Huangquan Temple immediately launched a war in Yunling Prefecture, not only recapturing Zhuyue Prefecture but also taking the opportunity to penetrate deep into Yunling and seize large tracts of territory.
The Refining Heaven Demon Sect in the middle has remained silent for the time being.
But further south, the Hehuan Demon Sect, an ally of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, also dispatched troops to attack Blood Abyss Prefecture, taking over a large area in the south.
The siege by the two overlords immediately sparked a frenzy among countless forces. In addition to Fengzhou, even Yeqiongzhou saw a rebellion.
certainly.
These people didn't do it so obviously; they verbally claimed to be quelling the rebellion, but in reality, they secretly sent their own people to plunder everywhere, and the resources of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect at all levels were being lost.
The Red Kite people are like mad dogs that have been suppressed for a long time, finally getting the chance to unleash their true nature.
Fengzhou Prefecture is also facing immense pressure.
Many within the organization began to cultivate their own power bases and seize the opportunity to gain profits. The so-called Xuan Gu Thieves were born out of this trend.
With so little information, it was hard for Wang Yu not to be puzzled.
How dare you?!
As far as he knew, there were two great cultivators from Heavenly Corpse Peak, two great cultivators from Cold Blood Peak, one from Evil Sword Peak, three from Blood Nether Peak, and one Blood God Guard.
There are nine great cultivators here alone, not to mention how many great cultivators are stationed within the Zhuo, Yu, and Zuoqiu clans.
It's understandable that the Yellow Springs Temple and the Joyful Union Sect would come and take a bite.
These troublemakers are simply courting death.
pity.
All the information obtained from the soul search was not enough for Wang Yu to make an accurate judgment. The trip to Xuan Gu Mountain had to be postponed, and he needed to go to Fengzhou Prefecture City first.
Only by grasping the general trend can we make choices that are not wrong.
Meanwhile, the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect serves as a bridgehead for the Red Fence side.
If a major upheaval occurs, the Taihu Spirit Realm will definitely be aware of it. After more than four hundred years, and having just trained two new generations, if war breaks out again...
They should beat the dog's brain out.
Fortunately, Fengzhou was impoverished and the flames of war would not spread here for the time being, but the demons from Huangquan Temple and even the Northern Broken Realm Mountains, and even the Biyun Sect on the other side, would send out scout teams.
They attempted to attack Fengzhou, a weak point.
There is no doubt about that.
After brainstorming for a while, Wang Yu turned his gaze to the old man who was still kneeling on the ground and continued the previous topic.
"Fool! You think you can use my things to save your life? You're incredibly shameless!"
Old man: "...Huh?"
He almost couldn't keep up with Wang Yu's train of thought, and was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He opened his mouth to explain.
But then he saw hundreds of ice chains burning with pale white flames suddenly shooting towards him, as he tried to escape using a teleportation technique.
But he discovered that, without his knowledge, a large number of black ice crystals had appeared on the ground, freezing his lower body.
A brief moment of hesitation caused his mind to completely stop working.
Wang Yu made a hand seal with both hands.
The Ice Dragon Flame quickly condensed into a flaming alchemy furnace. In no time, the old man, along with his golden core and soul, transformed into a spiritual pill imprinted with a distorted human face.
This is the secret method of alchemy in the art of human alchemy—the [Golden Elixir Formula]!
The name is rather ordinary.
The effect is extremely powerful; it can refine a Core Formation cultivator who has lost the ability to resist into a Human Pill within a few breaths. Since it is a quick-formation version, this pill only has the effect of rapidly restoring mana.
The amount of mana that can be instantly restored depends on the cultivation level of the main material used, which has a decisive advantage in a protracted battle.
If there were time to process it slowly, its most valuable use would actually be to refine it into a spiritual pill to enhance cultivation, which is exactly what Wang Yu needs.
There's no rush right now; let's try it out first.
Once he arrives in Fengzhou Prefecture, there will be plenty of materials for him to refine.
After looting all the spoils and picking all the Marrow Cleansing Fruits, Wang Yu left the nameless mountain and fled northeast.
That's the direction of the prefectural city.
Because Fengzhou is sparsely populated and the distance between cities is extremely far, even Foundation Establishment cultivators need to fly for ten days to half a month to travel from one city to another.
Several days later.
Passing through a place called "Chaishan City", Wang Yu scanned the area with his divine sense and found that a large number of people had gathered near the city lord's mansion, seemingly about to start a war with some force.
The city lord was merely at the early stage of Core Formation, but Fengzhou was already one of the major cities in the region. He flew out of the city with thousands of cultivators as if riding on clouds.
There was also a group of people over there.
The group numbered just over a hundred, but three of them were in the early stages of Core Formation. They perfunctorily covered their faces with black cloths and didn't even bother to buy a mask.
The two sides met in less than half an incense stick's time.
The Lord of Chaishan City pointed his sword at the three of them.
He roared, "Violet, Meteor, and Black Sage, is this the clumsy way you three are trying to conceal your identities? Are you trying to deliberately humiliate this city lord?!"
The three of them said...
"You're destined to die, so hiding it or not makes little difference."
“Brother Wu is right… City Lord Chai Shan! The Reverse Spirit Blood Sect is doomed. Why bother paying a million spirit stones every five years? Wouldn’t it be better to use those resources for your own cultivation?”
The city lord's face was ashen; he was different from these commoners.
He has a family behind him, and the position of city lord was also obtained through family maneuvering. As a beneficiary of the overlord Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, he naturally has to maintain its rule.
"—How arrogant!"
"Insects dare to think they can eat at the table? Aren't they afraid of overeating?"
"snort!"
"Let's do it!"
When two sides are about to clash, they can't agree on anything.
Wang Yu instantly appeared in the center of the battlefield.
A three-year-old child, suspended in mid-air—this bizarre situation immediately brought both sides to a standstill, and Wushu couldn't help but exclaim.
"Who are you, fellow Daoist? Why are you blocking our way?"
This person speaks with some sense, but his actions are truly irrational. Wang Yu revealed a sincere smile and pointed his small hand at the crowd.
The jade-like arms were covered with cursed lines.
The pitch-black ice line flashed by in an instant.
Lord Chai Shan stared wide-eyed in disbelief as his powerful enemies Zi Luo, Wu Shu, and Liu Xing, along with the hundreds of cultivators behind them, all turned into blocks of ice.
The Ice Dragon Flame rose up, and immediately a rain of pills fell from the sky, all of them human pills that Wang Yu had casually refined from first and second-tier cultivators.
The only thing left were three life-sized flame furnaces, which silently floated behind Wang Yu. He planned to refine them into human pills that would increase his magical power, and he used magical threads to hold them up first.
Only then did he look at City Lord Chaishan. As the other man trembled uncontrollably, Wang Yu opened his mouth to say something, but then swallowed it back.
He had intended to give the following order: "Defend according to the city lord's formation and await further developments."
Think about it carefully.
Saying it this way would easily expose the identity of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
Having finally obtained this virgin body, no one would associate Wang Yu with the Child Demon, which completely extinguished the Nine Evil Sword Lord's hopes.
After all, his congenital demonic fetus was quite special.
Normally, the acquired demonic fetus is the direction that Nine Evil Sword Lord is aware of. He can even break away from the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, and no one will be able to discover him in the short term.
Until he grew up again...
It may sound strange, but it's true!
So he said nothing, took the three flaming alchemy furnaces and left, continuing his journey towards Fengzhou Prefecture.
He had previously judged that Fengzhou had not yet been ravaged by war.
Actually, there were some misjudgments.
The majority of the Chiyuan people are unstable elements. In the past, they fought amongst themselves and rarely attacked the Holy Sect's strongholds. Now, however, they have become a chaotic mess.
They fight wherever they go.
During his journey, Wang Yu was often attracted by the fragrance emanating from Core Formation cultivators, and would unknowingly drift away from them. What should have been a short journey took half a month, and he was still not halfway there.
In contrast.
The number of fiery furnaces floating behind him is increasing, and many Core Formation cultivators have died tragically at his hands; there are now more than a hundred furnaces.
"It's a pity that 90% of them are in the early stages of Core Formation, useless individuals whose potential has been exhausted. Their numbers are really too few..."
He muttered chilling words.
Wang Yu reached out his hand.
The three earliest flames that had been lit behind him in the cold furnace dissipated after half a month of arduous refining.
Three cultivation pills, about the size of a longan, landed in my palm. They were not much different in appearance from cultivation golden pills, except that they had many more blood-red patterns.
Pick one up and put it in your mouth to chew.
I closed my eyes and felt it for a while.
"Thirty strands of mana... that's a bit too little. It's true that early-stage Core Formation cultivators are trash."
However, this one cultivation pill is equivalent to nearly a month of his cultivation. Refining it once is not cost-effective. Only large-scale refining like this can yield sufficient benefits.
"Moreover... it seems that the Human Elixir does not have any obstacles?"
Wang Yu raised an eyebrow. He finally understood why the Human Alchemy Technique had become the most sought-after alchemy tradition in Chi Yuan, as one could increase their strength simply by killing.
This is something countless demonic cultivators dream of.
He glanced back at the floating alchemy furnace. Fortunately, his spiritual sense was strong enough, his alchemy technique had reached perfection, and the Golden Elixir Refining Technique was simple and straightforward.
Otherwise, it really wouldn't be possible to support such a large-scale alchemy operation.
Wang Yu felt that his limit was around 500 furnaces, but his magic power couldn't hold up, since the Ice Dragon Flame was, after all, a fourth-order flame.
For the past two weeks, he has needed to take a top-grade third-tier mana pill every day to keep going, and he still has about thirty of them in stock.
We can refine it one more time.
Next comes the harvest phase, where all one hundred Flame Furnaces will successively complete the final step of pill nurturing, thus becoming finished products.
"Another round?"
As he muttered to himself, Wang Yu confirmed his feelings.
Opportunities to enhance one's magical power are not easy to find, and the chance to openly hunt down rebels is rare. He also wants to break free from his shackles as soon as possible, so this seems to be a better option.
…………
…………
Several days later.
"Run!"
"The Ice Demon Child has arrived!"
"Aaaaaah! The Ice Demon Child is here to capture people for alchemy! Run!!!"
"There's a Core Formation cultivator here! Senior Ice Demon, look at me! He's a Core Formation cultivator! He used a secret technique to conceal his cultivation level!"
In mid-air, Wang Yu's lips twitched.
This wasn't the first time he'd witnessed such a scene.
Seeing that the Core Formation cultivator wished he could grind the talkative fellow to dust, he raised his hand and shot out an Ice Dragon Sword, one of the derivative applications of the Ice Chain Binding God Curse after its perfection.
He was able to extend the Binding God Incantation to the icy furnace formed by the Ice Dragon Flame, and thus refine these troublemakers alive.
This set of small combos is incredibly effective at mowing down weak opponents, and only late-stage Core Formation cultivators can put up a fight against it. Unfortunately, such individuals are extremely rare.
Anyone with even a little ambition has gone to other states to develop their careers.
At this moment, countless strands of magical ice energy sprouted behind him, pulling nearly two hundred fiery furnaces along, inevitably slowing them down considerably.
Wherever you go, you can hear the terrified screams of the cultivators.
"Ice Demon Child" was the first nickname Wang Yu received that became widely known in his life. It spread throughout Fengzhou, and almost everyone knew that a cultivator who could kill Core Formation cultivators as easily as slaughtering dogs had emerged from this place.
The Ice Demon Child who is obsessed with the Ren Dan Avenue!
There are also rumors that he fears the reputation of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect and only dares to target poor rogue cultivators and tribulation cultivators.
With such a weak reputation of bullying the weak, fearing the powerful, and not even daring to kick someone when they're down, the Ice Demon Child was completely separated from the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
This was his own work.
After the rumors spread to a small circle, the cultivators who resented him would naturally spread the slander even further, making Wang Yu even more unscrupulous.
With an innocent-looking face and body.
They were doing the work of demons.
After wreaking havoc in White Tower City, and producing five or six more cultivators who had reached the Human Core stage, Wang Yu did a quick calculation and realized it would be enough for him to use for a long time.
We are now very close to Fengzhou Prefecture.
He decided not to continue the killing, and because of him, there have been fewer battles in Fengzhou recently.
As they left, carrying countless alchemy furnaces, the Qi Refining cultivators who had been scareming them but were actually not in any real danger breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Luckily, I was smart enough to hide under a woman's skirt, and that ice demon let me go."
Those around were speechless.
Another half month passed, and all the flames and cold furnaces dissipated. Wang Yu finally obtained 231 cultivation pills, which was conservatively estimated to be enough for him to break through to the peak of the ninth level of the Core Formation stage.
I picked one up, put it in my mouth, and chewed it.
Feeling the rich, pure magical power flowing into his body, rapidly increasing his cultivation, Wang Yu felt very satisfied with the sweet taste and the feeling of growing strength.
One of these is enough for him to digest for a whole day.
He straightened his direction, concealed his figure, and completely concealed the dragging light effect of the Aurora Escape Technique, avoiding everyone's gaze. In just two days, he arrived at the foot of Fengzhou City.
Although the most elite cultivators in this city are only at the peak of the Core Formation stage, the city's scale and underground spiritual veins were built according to the fourth-order standard.
Because there are too many Core Formation cultivators here, even a single fourth-grade low-level spiritual vein is not enough, and there are also two third-grade high-level spiritual veins distributed in the north and south urban areas.
Wang Yu arrived at the city gate of the South District. As his aura subsided, the spiritual light on his robes also dissipated, and he suddenly became ordinary.
The child's big, innocent eyes sparkled with curiosity as he observed his surroundings.
"Huh—"
"Why is there a child here? Where are your parents?"
Wang Yu looked up, his throat involuntarily bobbing slightly.
So white, so big...you can't even see the face!
12,000 words, the third update for today is complete.
Get ready to have some fun!
