Wasted Spiritual Root to Embark on Demonic Cultivation

Chapter 342

“Got him.”

“Hmph. This is the Blood Pavilion secret technique, the Lock Essence Stabilizing Spirit Binding Curse. No matter how heaven defying his physical body is, he cannot escape endless weakness.”

Someone panted and stopped fleeing.

He mocked Wang Yu, clearly having gained the upper hand and grown arrogant.

Within the blood lock confinement, Wang Yu forcefully tugged at the chains. With his third rank peak physique, he only managed to make them creak without producing any signs of breakage.

Moreover, the qi and blood within his body were being continuously devoured.

He was gradually weakening.

Breaking free had to be done sooner rather than later.

The blood sea killing intent of the Lesser Asura Slaughter Fist slowly faded. The Yin Nether Demonic Dragon qi and blood manifested into form, the dragon biting the blood chains in an attempt to chew them apart with brute force.

At this moment.Jian Nanxing charged in again. The serrated golden sword in his hand split into nine golden red streaks of light, stabbing fiercely toward Wang Yu’s nine apertures.

The others did not hesitate either, instead jointly unleashing their methods to completely kill him here.

A purple cauldron overturned, spewing purple flames.

A longbow fired a halberd, transforming into a giant serpent hundreds of meters long that lunged to bite.

Lightning rolled and surged, shooting in from all directions.

In less than a single breath, countless divine abilities and techniques struck his body. Various magic treasures suppressed him as well. It was as if he were carrying mountains on his back, and his strength to struggle grew ever weaker.

In such a desperate situation, the Wind and Thunder secret art suddenly erupted.

Wang Yu’s struggling force rose another level. Several blood chains were forcibly snapped by him. He curled his body as much as possible, using the hardest side of the Demonic Dragon Armor to block the attacks.

Clang after clang rang out.

In the distance.

Zhuo Shouyun clenched his fist, his gaze subtly sweeping toward the entrance of the Corrosion Yin Hall. If it was only this much, perhaps those backup measures would not be needed.

Who would have thought that in the briefest moment of distraction.

A gray pillar of light shot out from Wang Yu’s brow. It was the Soul Extinguishing Death Light. As his head twisted, seizing the brief gap after forcibly enduring the attacks.

The death light swept across the field. Those who had just attacked fell one by one.

Like dumplings dropped into boiling water.

Splash splash, they fell into the Blood Demon Sea. As their divine sense was greatly depleted, the Glazed Ice Heart Pagoda rushed out from Wang Yu’s body, rapidly expanding to cover him.

With a violent twist, all the blood chains snapped completely.

Auroral light bloomed. With the enhancement of his life bound magic treasure, thousands of Wang Yu’s aurora phantoms rushed out. One of them carried towering baleful aura and charged straight toward Zhuo Shouyun.

Capture the leader first. He had not done so earlier out of concern for traps.

Zhuo Shouyun exposing himself so openly was completely different from their previous battle. There was no guarantee it was not a trap.

Now, it depended on who had thought further.

This baleful filled figure punched Zhuo Shouyun in the chest and abdomen. The latter instead revealed a smile and suddenly exploded into countless blood threads.

They wrapped Wang Yu into a cocoon, leaving only his head exposed.

Zhuo Shouyun’s true body appeared from afar.

“You fell into the trap.”

“Did I.”

Wang Yu revealed the same smile. The auroral escape form collapsed, exposing the withered true face of the Lunar Yin Fiend Corpse. It let out a skyward roar.

The Yin Corpse Descending Evil Curse locked on instantly.

Fiend Corpse Worships the Moon.

This was the first time Wang Yu had used the Two Corpses in front of him. During the Drunken Immortal Lake battle, he had not used them because he was not confident of keeping Zhuo Shouyun. The outcome would not have had much impact.

This time was different. When he sensed that old monster level sect ancestors were secretly observing, he formed the intention to severely injure Zhuo Shouyun.

He was creating an opportunity for Xie Xie'an. This aligned with the wishes of those above.

In this way.

The large scale slaughter of these so called geniuses gained another layer of protection, turning private actions into public duty.

The benefits were not visible yet, but in the future, when climbing the ranks within the Blood Reversal Sect, it would certainly be advantageous.

Zhuo Shouyun was entangled by Lunar Yin Fiend Corpse. His strength was comprehensively weakened. The blood sea beneath him suddenly exploded, and Wang Yu, his entire body flashing with lightning, charged out.

Amid thunder and lightning, he slammed straight into him.

“Damn it.”

Zhuo Shouyun cursed aloud. Not far away, two blood shadows appeared. Their hands lashed out like ropes, grabbing his waist and dragging him backward.

With lightning patterns erupting, Wang Yu was even faster.

He grabbed Zhuo Shouyun’s legs and twisted violently, forcibly tearing apart his lower body. Blood sprayed everywhere, yet no internal organs fell out.

Zhuo Shouyun narrowly escaped with his life. His upper body poured out massive amounts of blood, rapidly reconstructing his form. The torn off lower body, however, transformed just like the previous trap.

Dense blood threads burst forth. The runes of the Lock Essence Stabilizing Spirit Binding Curse spread along the blood threads, instantly covering everything.

At this moment, his breathing became slightly rapid.

“In the end, I still caught you.”

“Did you.”

Unexpectedly, Wang Yu’s face vanished again as aurora light dissipated, transforming into the unfamiliar bald corpse face covered in lightning patterns.

Thunder Corpse.

There were actually two variant zombies. This level of assets surpassed even the direct disciples of Heavenly Corpse Peak. While shocked, Zhuo Shouyun’s gaze rapidly swept the surroundings.

Twice in a row, they had been feints.

Where was Wang Yu’s true killing move.

At present, the sky and land were filled with Wang Yu’s aurora phantoms. The cultivators being chased feared that the one behind them was real and fled blindly.

As a result, the air was filled everywhere with streaks of escape light.

Especially the dazzling auroral streaks of the Aurora Escape Technique. With Wang Yu making no effort to restrain them, it was extreme light pollution, enough to make one dizzy.

Zhuo Shouyun’s face darkened. He quietly made a hand sign.

Immediately, the hidden blood shadow creatures stopped restraining themselves. Eight blood shadow figures surged out of the blood sea, surrounding him to form a defensive layer. Blood talisman seals formed into a spherical barrier.

Defense was pushed to the extreme.

Only then did he feel slightly at ease. He formed hand seals with both hands, and his divine sense power rippled outward like waves. He needed to find Wang Yu’s true body.

At the same time.

In the Blood Demon Sea, due to the effects of the Soul Extinguishing Death Light, many cultivators had just fallen from the sky. Those with divine sense defense secret arts or divine sense magic treasures.

Were only briefly stunned and quickly regained consciousness.

However, among these dozen or so people, some never resurfaced, including Jian Nanxing.

Everyone looked at each other in confusion.

“What is going on. Where is Brother Liu.”

Whoosh.

Beneath the Lunar Yin Fiend Corpse and Thunder Corpse, Wang Yu’s true body suddenly rushed out. With a wave of his hand, he forcibly recalled the Two Corpses into the Yin Nurturing Coffin.

At this moment, his complexion was ruddy and his mana abundant.

There was no trace of weakness left.

It was clearly that he had used the Two Corpses’ assault as cover, while his true body sank into the blood sea and suppressed Jian Nanxing within the Glazed Iceheart Pagoda.

Because Jian Nanxing’s mind had long since shattered and was completely under Zhuo Shouyun’s control, when the Mysterious Origin Demonic Embryo took demonic intent as its seed, it matured with almost no resistance.

Wang Yu seized the chance to devour it.

Now, the Heavenly Metal Spiritual Root had also been obtained by him. Among the five elements, only wood and earth remained to reach the Heavenly Spiritual Root level.

The water element spiritual root was replaced by the Heavenly Yin Spiritual Root. Only the early mutated Ice Spiritual Root was entangled with it, temporarily at a disadvantage.

Two roots used as one.

In his premonition, when the five wasted spiritual roots simultaneously reached supreme grade aptitude, that is the Heavenly Spiritual Root level, his Mysterious Origin Demonic Embryo would undergo a qualitative transformation and might even grant him a special spiritual body.

This possibility was not small.

However, the mysteries involved could not be explained in a few words. Fu Xiao’s demonic embryo was also extremely crucial. Neither could be missing.

That kind of transformation was definitely not the so called Acquired Demonic Embryo Physique Zhuo Shouqing once mentioned. It would be something far more mysterious and unfathomable.

To understand the reason, he would have to investigate the ancient ruins related to the Demonic Embryo Mysterious Origin Curse. This could not avoid the Nine Evils Sword Lord.

Wang Yu’s gaze turned toward Zhuo Shouyun. The latter looked back at him at the same time, realizing that he had been played again by Wang Yu.

The aura of Jian Nanxing completely disappeared. He could guess what had happened, after all, the fact that Wang Yu cultivated the Demonic Embryo Mysterious Origin Curse was no secret.

“Fine methods.”

“You flatter me.”

Wang Yu turned his head to look around. Those cultivators who had been chased to the brink of madness by the aurora phantoms, upon seeing his true body appear, each used their own techniques to disperse the phantoms.

Some landed near Zhuo Shouyun, but even more people left without looking back. The situation had reversed again, and Wang Yu had recovered to his full peak state.

After slightly evaluating the risks, many people felt that the situation was no longer worth pursuing and decisively withdrew. If they stayed any longer, their lives would likely be in danger.

Not long after.

When the formation had completely stabilized, something unexpected happened. Zhuo Shouyun actually ordered everyone to retreat, opening up a path leading to the Corrosion Yin Hall.

“Since things have come to this, if you want to enter, then go. How about you and I settle the outcome after we leave?”

Wang Yu raised an eyebrow.

“It seems you have long prepared for the situation outside, confident that you can swallow Zhuo Shouqing?”

Zhuo Shouyun nodded without concealing it.

“Wang Yu, you are a variable, but Zhuo Shouqing’s other helpers, including Huang Jiu, do you think I do not know about them? He cannot win.”

At this moment.

Wang Yu had basically fulfilled the requirements of the Nether River Contract. Through two major battles, the team Zhuo Shouyun had brought into the Blood Abyss had been almost completely wiped out by him.

Only Zhuo Shouyun himself remained. This could absolutely be considered a heavy blow.

Those eight blood shadows were clearly blood path monsters created through secret techniques, and those teams were only temporarily assembled. Their reliability was questionable.

If the fight continued, Zhuo Shouyun had no confidence in killing him.

He might even be devoured in return by those people.

After making this judgment, although Wang Yu still harbored some doubts, he did not say much. With a sweep of aurora light, he fled straight toward the entrance of the Corrosion Yin Hall.

As he approached, a strong sense of danger surged in his heart.

Two streaks of blood light shot out from beneath the blood water on both sides of the Corrosion Yin Hall, and a sinister face appeared before his eyes.

“Su Yulong?”

It was him.

Wang Yu opened his mouth and spat out an extremely cold breath, which transformed into the shape of a frost sword. This was precisely one of the wondrous manifestations among the Twelve Phases of the Guanghan.

The incident was too sudden. It was almost impossible to unleash divine powers at full strength.

In his haste, he could only use a small portion of his power.

The frost sword crossed paths with the blood light and instantly pierced into Su Yulong’s chest. Frost spread rapidly, and disbelief filled his face.

He had thought that even if Wang Yu counterattacked, he would prioritize destroying the two streaks of blood light. Who would have thought that Wang Yu’s target would be him instead.

The thought lasted only an instant.

The rapidly spreading frost froze him into an ice block. His physical body shattered into pieces, and even his soul perished within the extreme cold.

Only a blue golden core fell onto the steps before the Corrosion Yin Hall, leaving him to die with bitter regret.

As for the two streaks of blood light.

One pierced through Wang Yu’s heart, the other pierced through his brow. Dense blood light bloomed at both locations, emitting an extremely terrifying corrosive power.

It prevented Wang Yu’s body from healing itself.

Corpse Demon secret art.

The three Yin Blood Pills stored within his body were instantly digested. Yin and corpse energies surged outward, almost instantly dispersing the foreign mana within his head, and the wound healed smoothly.

When this secret power surged toward the wound in his heart.

Zhuo Shouyun made his move.

Excitement could not be concealed on his face. He had guessed that Wang Yu would make this choice. People always seek benefit and avoid harm. After he had proactively shown submission, once the other side achieved satisfactory results, he indeed did not wish to fight to mutual destruction.

“Blood God Heart Control Technique.”

In an instant, the secret blood light formed a sigil that fused inseparably with Wang Yu’s heart.

Wang Yu’s expression also changed. He thrust his right hand into his chest and decisively tore out his heart. The Ice Chi Pill Flame surged forth, completely incinerating the mass of flesh.

With the recovery of Yin Blood secret power, a new heart grew back.

Yet Wang Yu’s expression remained grim, because the blood sigil still existed on the newly grown heart.

“How is this possible?”

“Hahahaha.”

Zhuo Shouyun burst into laughter, his expression filled with delight.

“Wang Yu, blood path cultivators are inherently skilled at flesh and blood regeneration and bodily recovery techniques. After our last parting, I had already begun preparing this for you.

“This Blood God Heart Control Technique, how is it? Are you satisfied?”

As the name implied, this secret art focused on control.

Zhuo Shouyun did not want to kill him, but to control him. Clearly, through their repeated confrontations, he had developed a sense of appreciation for Wang Yu.

For a moment, Wang Yu was also caught in a dilemma.

If he did not figure out the principles of this secret art, then the only way to resolve it would be to repeatedly tear out his heart and regenerate it. His Yin Blood secret power could not support this for long.

“Hmph.”

As the situation shifted again, Wang Yu suddenly charged into the Corrosion Yin Hall. As he passed by, he did not forget to snatch Su Yulong’s golden core. Seeing this, Zhuo Shouyun waved his hand.

“Chase.

“I want to see how long he can last.”

A group of people chased after Wang Yu’s figure and successively rushed into the Corrosion Yin Hall.

At this time.

Those who had not participated finally gathered with lingering fear, discussing among themselves.

“This Wang Yu is truly ruthless.”

“A pity. Young Master Yun is still a step superior. What is the origin of this Blood God Heart Control Technique?”

“Let me explain.”

A gray robed cultivator said confidently.

“It is rumored that this secret art is used by the Blood Demon Hall to create Blood God Guards. Even righteous path cultivators from the Taihu region cannot escape it and obediently become servants of the Exalted Sect.

“It is just unclear why Zhuo Shouyun knows this secret art. Logically speaking, the Blood Demon Hall’s inheritance is not something even Blood Nether Peak is qualified to touch.”

“So that is how it is.”

While the onlookers were astonished, someone else said.

“I previously heard that Wang Yu fought a battle with Lu Chenzhou at Evil God Market and even suppressed Lu Chenzhou throughout the fight. Could it be that he incurred a grudge because of this and fell victim to a scheme by that Lu fellow?”

“What this fellow daoist says does make some sense.”

“Most likely.”

“What if Young Master Yun secretly learned it?

“The secret arts and divine powers taught in the Blood Pavilion also originate from the Blood Demon Hall. Among its disciples are many nobles. With the capabilities of the Ghost Fang Zhuo clan, it would not be strange to learn one or two.”

“Heh, you are the only one who is clear headed.”

Once conflicting opinions arose, the crowd immediately split into several groups and began arguing, each with their own reasoning.

After Wang Yu fled into the Corrosion Yin Hall, the no flight restriction immediately pressed him down to the ground. He could not rise higher than three zhang and could only fly close to the surface.

At the same time, Ice Soul Divine Light swept across the ground.

Black solid ice spikes grew rapidly, completely filling the entrance of the palace. If Zhuo Shouyun and the others wanted to chase after him, they could only slowly break through the ice.

They also had to be careful not to touch the restrictions of the Corrosion Yin Hall.

After all, to some extent, calling this place the dao field of a Spirit Transformation venerable was not inappropriate.
