Chapter 327 - 174: Boundless Cosmos Within the Cocoon, Endless Sun and Moon Inside the Vessel
Two months later, with the indiscriminate expenditure of resources and the exhaustion of thousands of Golden Holy Beetles, the tireless work of dozens of Talisman Masters finally completed the engraving of all seventy-two basic runes representing the Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Skills.
The Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Skill Talisman Beetles were successfully refined.
Although the losses made Zheng Yi somewhat distressed, in order to cultivate these consumed Golden Holy Beetles, except for a very few that slipped through the net, all the zombie hordes around Fengdu City were cleared, becoming an endless supply of flesh resources.
From the flesh of hundreds of thousands of zombies, only seventy-two Golden Holy Beetles survived; such a ratio would make anyone’s heart ache.
To ensure the continued operation of the Flesh Factory, the senior levels of the Soul Hall have already begun reaching into surrounding cities, continuing to expand territory, and seeking more zombie hordes.
While others avoid zombies, the senior levels of the Soul Hall see them as endless treasures and resources.
Boom!
With the successful fusion of the last Golden Holy Beetle engraved with runes into the acupoint, suddenly, the seventy-two acupoints opened within Zheng Yi’s body erupted with dazzling white light.
Amidst the white light, the golden runes rose, like a golden sun slowly ascending from the horizon.
The seventy-two Earthly Fiend Skill runes completely fused into the body, establishing the Talisman Armor System. Zheng Yi could smoothly use the various abilities of the Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Skills through the talisman array for Body Refining.
This allowed his combat abilities to handle all kinds of situations that might arise. Although his combat power didn’t surge dramatically, each of the Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Skills has its own mysteries. When combined, they form the Eight-Nine Profound Technique Body, integrating the power of the entire body system and further enhancing his foundation.
Though there was no fundamental enhancement in power, the path he’s undertaken is the most pivotal moment of all his accumulated foundation in the first half of his life. Relying on the powerful simulation ability of the Main God, he turned decay into marvels, embarking on his unique path.
This has a critical role in his future cultivation path.
Simultaneous with the establishment of the Talisman Armor System, after about six months of nurturing, the Innate Peach Divine Embryo within Luoo Yaoji was finally fully harvested by Zheng Yi and successfully nurtured within his body, where his own spirit resided.
Zheng Yi further discovered the benefits of this Peach Divine Embryo, which continuously released pure energy from the wood-based essence, nurturing various parts of his body and causing them to transform. All previous hidden injuries disappeared.
In less than a year, Zheng Yi has already organized his body to an optimal state.
He made thorough preparations for the journey to the Secret Immortal Cave Mansion.
The next step is to wait for the Secret Immortal Cave Mansion to open, to enter, obtain the Feathered Silkworm, and begin the Celestial Human Rebirth Skill.
...
Half a month later, amid a barren mountain, a concealed figure traversed silently among the mountains. Even when passing by those Demon Beasts, no disturbance was caused.
Zheng Yi activated the rune of the Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Skills’ ’Invisibility Talisman,’ silently reaching the area where the Secret Immortal Cave Mansion was about to open.
He glanced up at the moon overhead, which was slowly transforming into a full moon. As a mist drifted by, the full moon finally took shape.
At the same time, Zheng Yi’s eyes lit up as he perceived a unique pulsation. According to the runes provided by Yi Qing Zi, carved in the void, he seemed to trigger a particular opportunity. Suddenly, the barren mountain under his feet vibrated, and within the mountain gorge, a one-zhang-high Void Gate ’rumbled’ open.
The sound was exceptionally loud in the desolate wilderness, but since it was remote and rarely visited, Zheng Yi stood in front of the Light Gate for a moment, not sensing any danger, then dashed in.
The light flickered, and the giant Light Gate disappeared as if it had never appeared, erasing all traces.
Yi Qing Zi had explained all this clearly before. Zheng Yi had also discovered some clues on the three Cultivators in Profound Spirit Domain Heaven-Locking Temple, and the two corresponded without error.
Amidst a vast expanse of white light, Zheng Yi felt the shifting shadows and, upon steady footing again, found himself inside an unfamiliar mountain cave.
Inside the cave was a straight passage, which Zheng Yi carefully progressed along. As he ventured deeper, the concentration of Spiritual Qi within abruptly increased.
Along the way, no danger was encountered, nor any defensive mechanisms.
As Yi Qing Zi had previously informed, this Secret Immortal Cave Mansion was merely a hidden treasure trove.
Upon rounding a corner, a grand hall suddenly appeared before him.
Zheng Yi’s eyes brightened, and he hurried forward.
However, an empty hall came into view, with nothing at all. Although he had anticipated this scene, Zheng Yi still couldn’t help feeling somewhat disappointed upon seeing it.
The entire hall was spotlessly clean, like a grain warehouse visited by mice. It was evident that the treasures stored here had long been taken away by the Immortal Sect’s cultivators, leaving nothing behind for him.
With a sigh of ’just my luck,’ Zheng Yi continued forward.
The flowing Spiritual Qi within seemed even denser. As he reached the deepest part and the core area, Zheng Yi saw a Jade Marrow Stone Wall as tall as a small mountain standing in the center of the cave.
Entirely emerald green, formed of countless pieces of Jade Marrow, it stood about four to five zhang high, with a circumference of three to four zhang. This was the most invaluable treasure of the Secret Immortal Cave Mansion.
