Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#195 - Chapter 194 Blood Pill

At this moment, the situation within the array changed again. Zhang, Qing, and Lin had most of their magical power extracted, collapsing to the ground, looking listless. The four array flags shone brightly, and the array disk was even more radiant, its spiritual energy surging upwards.

Wu Jixiong's aura became extremely weak, but his physical body's blood energy was even more vigorous. The abundant vitality surrounded him, like a true demon in the demon core realm.

“Using Qi to refine the body?” Qian Shanzi glanced at it a few times, then shook his head, “It seems more like a demonic method, using others as human elixirs to refine oneself.”

Jun Mingzi looked at Wu Jixiong, whose blood energy was constantly rising, hesitated for a moment, and whispered, “Senior Brother, is this person about to break through to the Core Formation stage?”

Qian Shanzi snorted and said, “It's not that easy! Adding himself, there are only four Foundation Establishment Completion cultivators. At most, his physical body will enter the Core Formation realm.”

Jun Mingzi chuckled, “This person has such a secret technique, why not use it anywhere else? Why use the Profound Yin Cave, and while we brothers are surrounding him! Senior Brother, what do you think he's up to?”

Qian Shanzi pointed at him and scolded with a smile, “Junior Brother, I say you're careless, but sometimes you're also overly suspicious. This kind of secret technique is only for physical body Core Formation. If the divine soul cannot break through, lifespan will still not be extended, and he will still die like a Foundation Establishment cultivator. I guess this person wants to use this secret technique to gather more Profound Yin Grass, exchange it for enough Enlightenment Pills, and see if he can achieve advancement of the divine soul.”

Jun Mingzi shook his head, “Senior Brother, don't underestimate this person. Since he dares to come to this dangerous Profound Yin Cave to plot such a scheme, his plan must be very big!”

Qian Shanzi, being of one mind with him, immediately asked, “What, want to take another look?”

Jun Mingzi revealed a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth, “Although I admire this person's boldness and daring, he's performing this evil art in front of us, the Qianjun Brothers, and doesn't take us seriously at all. Let's find some fun for him!”

Qian Shanzi smiled wickedly, looked up at the top, “Alright, I also want to see what's hidden above. You step back a few steps!”

Having said that, he summoned his two Judge's Pens, forcefully cast several extremely long hand seals, and then shouted loudly. The two Judge's Pens transformed into two crackling balls of electric light, flying towards the Yin Fire Bat nest on the top.

Just as the two balls of electric light were about to hit the hundreds of holes in the cave ceiling, a large hole suddenly burst open in the middle. A ball of blue-black Yin Fire spewed out from it, colliding with the electric light.

The two balls of electric light stimulated each other and were about to explode. However, the blue-black Yin Fire surged upwards like flowing water, wrapping the electric light and suppressing it instantly.

Qian Shanzi was shocked and quickly cast a spell, trying to retrieve the two Judge's Pens. However, the two pens clashed back and forth in the blue-black Yin Fire and could not escape.

Seeing this, Jun Mingzi immediately took out a low-grade high-quality Fierce Fire Talisman and threw it over. A huge flame then clung to the Yin Fire and burned fiercely.

The Yin Fire ultimately couldn't withstand the attack from both inside and outside, revealing a flaw. The two Judge's Pens seized the opportunity to rush out and were retrieved by Qian Shanzi, but their spiritual energy was greatly damaged and they were temporarily unusable.

“Screech! Screech!”

Two sharp cries rang out, and Qian Shanzi and Jun Mingzi both felt a pain in their souls and fell into a daze. In just a short moment, a six-inch-long Yin Fire Bat with a black-green body shot out from the nest. Like lightning, it swept across a distance of more than ten zhang and bit Qian Shanzi on his left cheek. Qian Shanzi screamed, fell backward, and punched the beast away at the same time.

The Yin Fire Bat somersaulted in mid-air, steadily holding a piece of flesh torn from Qian Shanzi's face, dripping with blood, in its mouth. It flapped its wings and flew high, tilting its head and swallowing the flesh.

Qian Shanzi and Jun Mingzi had already regained consciousness. Qian Shanzi decisively shouted “Go!” and the two quickly retreated, flying towards a cave passage.

The large bat did not chase after the two, but stared straight at Wu Jixiong, whose blood energy was surging, with excitement and greed in its eyes.

Similarly, Wu Jixiong was also extremely excited when he saw the Yin Fire Bat, and the greed in his eyes was about to flow out of his glowing eyes like saliva. He secretly cried out: An Enlightenment Realm Completion Yin Fire Bat, truly heaven is helping me.

The reason he entered the Profound Yin Cave this time was not for the Profound Yin Grass and Enlightenment Pills at all, but to complete a difficult task. The means to accomplish the task lay in the so-called “Four Symbols Absolute Opportunity Array” and an Enlightenment Realm Completion Yin Fire Bat.

He was about to forcibly extract the cultivator's magical power and the Yin Fire Bat's blood energy through the changes of the array, gathering them into a blood pill to break through the physical body realm and achieve Core Formation in body refinement. In this way, his divine sense would still be in the Foundation Establishment realm, not afraid of the corrosion of the Profound Yin Grass poison, while his physical strength would be outstanding, and he could run rampant here to complete his important task.

He took Zhang Yuanjing and the other three deep into the cave to find an Enlightenment Realm Completion Yin Fire Bat. Through the abnormal movement of the Cang Monkey, he speculated that there was a high probability of a Completion Bat Demon here. However, he was trapped by the Qianjun Brothers and had no time to investigate. He was also forced to activate the array in advance, so he had to settle for second best and absorb the three people's magical power and blood energy together, first breaking through to Pseudo-Core.

He was also very thoughtful. To prevent accidents, he had given each of them a bottle of Boiling Blood Powder in advance, so that when the blood energy was extracted, the three of them would not be able to withstand the pain and would take the elixir on their own, thereby ensuring that there was enough blood energy.

Now that the Enlightenment Realm Completion Yin Fire Bat appeared, he was naturally in a great mood, feeling that his luck was on his side and that this time he would definitely accomplish great things.

The Enlightenment Realm Completion Yin Fire Bat stared at Wu Jixiong. It felt in its heart that if it ate this person, it could break through its current bottleneck, reach a new realm, and become the king of all the Yin Fire Bats here.

Its intelligence was quite high, and it knew that the four-colored flowing array was not easy to mess with, but its instinct made it difficult to suppress the impulse of its body.

It stretched its head and cried “Screech, screech” a few times, but Wu Jixiong was protected by the array and was not affected by its sound waves. It flapped its wings and flew above the array, circling back and forth, hoping to find a flaw and rush in to devour this person.

Wu Jixiong cautiously looked at Zhang Yuanjing and the other three, seeing that they were all dying, he knew that the time was almost right, and that he should capture the bat and extract its blood energy.

If the Yin Fire Bat didn't approach the array, he wouldn't have any way, but now that he saw it couldn't hold back and came over on its own, he knew that the opportunity had come.

When the Yin Fire Bat passed over the array disk again, Wu Jixiong reached out and pointed at the array disk. The array disk immediately swept the four-colored light curtain covering the bottom upwards, detaining the Yin Fire Bat. Then the light curtain fell again and tightly connected with the four array flags.

The Yin Fire Bat was trapped by the array disk, and its pure blood energy was constantly being extracted, and it immediately panicked and struggled desperately, but to no avail.

The Yin Fire Bat's blood energy extracted by the array was not directly transferred to Wu Jixiong, but was first sent to Zhang, Qing, and Lin's bodies in strands. After their magical power absorbed the manic energy and the Yin Fire poison, it was transferred to Wu Jixiong's body.

Although Zhang, Qing, and Lin's bodies could not move, their divine senses were still clear.

Zhang Yuanjing silently circulated the Devouring Technique, secretly dissolving the Yin Fire poison and slowly recovering his magical power.

Lin Dushan still had a nonchalant look, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.

After several invasions of Yin Fire poison, Qing Weihong was dying, and barely opened his mouth and asked, “Fellow Daoist Wu, what are you doing!”

Wu Jixiong was busy extracting blood energy and didn't pay attention to him at all.

“Wu, Wu Jixiong! Are you going to betray the Five Factions? Have you forgotten the restrictions in your body?”

Wu Jixiong sneered, “Those restrictions are not difficult for Wu!”

Qing Weihong wanted to speak again, but his magical power was exhausted and his body had to resist the Yin Fire poison, so he didn't even have the strength to speak.

In the array, the Yin Fire Bat couldn't escape the array's restraints, so it kept launching sonic attacks, but due to the array's obstruction, the sonic waves had little power when they reached Wu Jixiong.

Seeing this, Wu Jixiong knew that the matter was settled, and couldn't help but grin. However, the next moment, he put away his smile and his face darkened.

Qian Shanzi and Jun Mingzi actually came out of the cave passage they had left from, looking at him with cold expressions. Qian Shanzi's originally delicate face had some kind of wound medicine smeared on it, a dark mass that looked extremely terrifying.

Jun Mingzi looked up and saw that the nest had been completely broken open, revealing two Profound Yin Grasses that were several feet long. Looking at the color, he knew they were top-grade grasses that had been around for many years.

He jumped up, took out a shovel, shoveled down the two Profound Yin Grasses, wrapped the roots in jade foil, and carefully put them away.

Wu Jixiong watched coldly, letting him take the Profound Yin Grass. However, Qian Shanzi and Jun Mingzi did not leave immediately, but examined the situation in the array with interest.

Extracting blood energy from the Yin Fire Bat's body, filtering it through the bodies of the other three, and finally storing it in Wu Jixiong's physical body was not easy. It required the array to run at full power to ensure that there were no mistakes.

At the same time, the array disk also had to suppress the Yin Fire Bat, which also required the power of the array. Therefore, at this time, the array was actually extremely fragile in terms of external defense.

At this time, he only had two choices: either stop extracting blood energy and take action to kill the two people, but in that case, the Enlightenment Realm Completion Yin Fire Bat would inevitably break free from the array's restraints, and there would be no possibility of capturing it alive; or defend against the Qianjun Brothers while overdrawing the array's power to speed up the extraction of blood energy. If the array equipment collapsed before it was completed, he would completely lose the possibility of physical body Core Formation.

However, he would not make a choice until the two had taken action.

Although the Qianjun Brothers were tyrannical and domineering, they were by no means reckless people. Wu Jixiong's body was full of majestic blood energy, and his strength had far exceeded Foundation Establishment Completion. Even if he had not reached the physical body Pseudo-Core realm, he was not far from it.

If interrupting the array could cause serious damage to this person, they would not hesitate to try. However, if it didn't have much impact, choosing to take action would be a foolish move.

Jun Mingzi grinned and said, “Senior Brother, I feel that this kid is a little nervous. It seems that his cultivation has reached a critical moment. Should we give him a hand?”

Qian Shanzi also wanted to laugh, but as soon as the muscles on his face moved, he immediately pulled on the wound, and couldn't help but gasp. It took a long time before he said vaguely, “I'm already like this, what do you say?”

He originally wanted to do something bad, but instead of harming Wu Jixiong, he helped him. Moreover, he was bitten by the Yin Fire Bat, poisoned and disfigured. He couldn't swallow this breath in his chest.

Therefore, even though his injuries were critical, he went against his usual prudence and dragged his junior brother, who was usually reckless but was now extremely careful, back along the original path. He just wanted to take a cold shot to retaliate and vent the anger burning in his heart.

A few cunning expressions appeared on Jun Mingzi's ferocious face. He took two steps forward and said to Wu Jixiong, who looked cold but was actually a little nervous, “Fellow Daoist, it seems that you have another great opportunity and don't need the Profound Yin Grass. Why don't you give us all the Profound Yin Grass on your body? As long as we get the spiritual grass, my brothers and I will leave immediately. What do you say?”

Wu Jixiong said coldly, “Get lost!”

Jun Mingzi was stunned, and then became furious, “Damn it, no one has dared to say this word to me in the past hundred years. If I don't kill you bastard today, I will…”

“One stalk!” Wu Jixiong said coldly.

“Too little!” Jun Mingzi was still full of anger, but a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

“There is only one stalk. If you want to test it, come on. You may be able to ruin my plan, but you two will definitely be buried with me.” Wu Jixiong's eyes were full of murderous intent, directly threatening the Qianjun Brothers.

Jun Mingzi was unmoved and took two more steps forward, “Fellow Daoist, can you add some other things, such as spiritual weapons, elixirs, spirit stones, etc.? My brothers and I are a little tight on money, give us a little bit.”

“One stalk of Profound Yin Grass, take it and leave. If you don't want it, then take action, don't talk so much nonsense!” Wu Jixiong knew that this person was still testing him, so how could he give in.

Jun Mingzi had approached within ten zhang and dared not move forward any further. He immediately nodded, “Deal!”
