Even at its worst, it had once been a one-star Demon Emperor, so it might still have some hidden trump cards.
Therefore, killing it directly with the Red Lotus Demonic Fire was the safest approach.
Putting away the crystal ball, Ling Fan looked at the colossal demonic corpse floating in the void, resembling a mountain range.
At this moment, the entire demonic corpse was covered in ancient demonic runes.
A fleshy growth, resembling an eyeball yet also a strangely shaped heart, was rooted on the demonic corpse. It rhythmically inhaled and exhaled, madly absorbing every bit of nourishment from the demonic body.
"It will take another two to three months for the Demonic Seed to completely absorb the demonic body. During this time, I must cultivate diligently and improve my cultivation!" httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Thinking of the precarious situation of Zhou Yun Chang's descendants on Xing Zhou, the covetous Yao Zhou, and the three-star Demon Emperor outside the Jiu Hua Realm, Ling Fan felt immense pressure.
However, this was Ling Fan's nature.
The greater the pressure, the more motivated he became.
No matter how desperate the situation seemed, he would not be intimidated.
One by one, Myriad Spirit Grasses flew out from his storage ring.
There were also various other rare spiritual materials and elixirs.
They shone with a myriad of colors, illuminating the void with brilliance.
Like a floating ribbon, they slowly revolved around Ling Fan.
"Now, almost all the Myriad Spirit Grasses in the entire Myriad Burial Demonic Abyss have fallen into my hands."
"After setting aside the portion for the Demon Suppressing Clan, I have over a hundred stalks left, which should be enough for me to refine about three hundred Myriad Spirit Pills."
"I wonder if these Myriad Spirit Pills can support my Myriad Transformations Spirit Body to reach complete mastery..."
Ling Fan pondered with a thoughtful expression.
Once his Myriad Transformations Spirit Body reached complete mastery, his combat power would soar to another level. Coupled with the formidable Nirvana Tribulation Body, the Heavenly Demonic Eye, the Thirty-Six Techniques of Peering Heaven, and other methods, he would be able to contend with late-stage Golden Body realm powerhouses.
No sooner said than done.
Ling Fan began refining the Myriad Spirit Pills.
The Samsara Divine Cauldron floated out, and all the spiritual materials were directly dumped into it.
Ling Fan had no time to refine them one furnace at a time, so he decided to refine a large batch in a simple and direct manner.
...
Three days later.
The Samsara Divine Cauldron was opened.
Ling Fan beckoned, and Myriad Spirit Pills, shining with various colors, continuously flew into his hands.
In the end, only a little over two hundred and ninety Myriad Spirit Pills were successfully refined, falling short of three hundred.
There was a slight discrepancy from his estimation.
However, Ling Fan did not mind; a few less Myriad Spirit Pills would not significantly affect him.
Ling Fan directly opened his mouth and swallowed a Myriad Spirit Pill. Immediately, a vast amount of mixed-attribute spiritual energy spread throughout his body. Ling Fan quickly sat cross-legged in the void, circulating the Myriad Transformations Spirit Scripture, and his Myriad Transformations Spirit Body materialized behind him.
His Myriad Transformations Spirit Body had suffered considerable damage in the battle with the Demon Emperor.
It was only after absorbing the power of twenty to thirty Myriad Spirit Pills that the Myriad Transformations Spirit Body barely returned to its original state.
Subsequently, Ling Fan continued to consume Myriad Spirit Pills, and the spiritual energy fluctuations around him began to surge wildly, while the size of the Myriad Transformations Spirit Body behind him grew visibly.
...
A little over a month later.
The spiritual energy fluctuations around Ling Fan finally reached a peak state where further advancement was impossible.
The Myriad Transformations Spirit Body behind him had grown to about three hundred feet.
He then used his formidable cultivation to compress it back to a size of one hundred feet.
A sense of complete mastery emanated from the Myriad Transformations Spirit Body.
Myriad Transformations Spirit Body.
Complete Mastery!
Ling Fan casually clenched his fist, and surging Myriad Transformations Spiritual Energy converged, giving rise to an unprecedented sense of power.
Ling Fan felt as if, with a single punch, he could shatter the Myriad Burial Demonic Abyss.
Of course.
This was merely an illusion.
It took the epic battle between a peak Manifestation Realm expert and a one-star Demon Emperor to create such a deep abyss stretching for thousands of miles. He was still only at the Golden Core stage, so how could he possibly shake the Myriad Burial Demonic Abyss?
"Congratulations, Young Master Ling! Your strength has advanced further!"
A voice echoed.
The successor Demon Suppressing Clan Elder, accompanied by Wang Meng, appeared before Ling Fan and bowed deeply to him.
Their attitude was filled with reverence.
"Mm."
Ling Fan nodded at them indifferently.
"How is your reconstruction progressing?"
The Demon Suppressing Clan Elder replied, "Thanks to Young Master Ling, the reconstruction is almost complete. Every clan member is now diligently cultivating, seizing every moment to improve their strength!"
Ling Fan nodded.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that the Demon Suppressing Clan Elder had already entered the quasi-Golden Core stage, not far from condensing a Golden Core.
Firstly,
The people of the Demon Suppressing Clan were naturally gifted, possessing Martial Saint bloodlines.
Secondly,
They had spent their lives suppressing demonic energy, which had honed their cultivation and physiques to an extremely profound level.
With the accumulation of their efforts, and now that the demonic energy was gone, they had no more constraints, and their cultivation naturally progressed by leaps and bounds.
As for Wang Meng, standing beside the Demon Suppressing Clan Elder, his cultivation had also made significant progress, reaching the late stage of the Condensing Core realm.
It seemed Wang Meng had inherited a very strong bloodline.
If nurtured well, he could become a formidable combat force.
Ling Fan pondered for a moment, flicked his finger, and a beam of light instantly entered Wang Meng's forehead.
Wang Meng's expression trembled, and he quickly closed his eyes.
Under the anxious gaze of the Demon Suppressing Clan Elder, after a while, Wang Meng finally opened his eyes, revealing an expression of immense shock.
He did not speak but knelt directly before Ling Fan.
"Thank you, Young Master Ling, for imparting the technique!"
Ling Fan nodded indifferently and said, "No need for such formality, rise. It is merely a top-grade Earth-tier martial skill. The demonic energy erosion in your body is deep, which is a hidden danger. However, if utilized properly, it might not be a great opportunity for you. This martial skill, the Great Sun Demonic Saber, can guide the demonic nature within your body and allow you to exert your saber techniques to their fullest."
A top-grade Earth-tier martial skill!
Both Wang Meng and the Demon Suppressing Clan Elder's bodies stiffened.
As descendants of Martial Saints, they understood the meaning of these words.
Mid-grade Earth-tier corresponded to the Manifestation Realm.
Top-grade Earth-tier...
This was a peerless martial skill corresponding to the Great Emperor realm!
Even though their Wang clan followed Emperor Zhou, they did not possess any Emperor-level cultivation techniques for cultivation or inheritance.
This was because every inherited Emperor-level cultivation technique was a closely guarded secret of each imperial clan. Even the mighty Emperor Zhou did not have spare Emperor-level cultivation techniques.
Now, Ling Fan had casually bestowed an Emperor-level cultivation technique of top-grade Earth-tier upon Wang Meng, how could the two of them not be astonished!
"Alright, you may go about your business. I need to continue refining the demonic corpse. Strive to enter the Golden Core realm, or even the Manifestation Realm, as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the war of the Manifestation Realm begins, you will have no place to contribute."
Ling Fan said lightly.
"Yes!"
The Demon Suppressing Clan Elder and Wang Meng bowed and retreated.
After they left, Ling Fan continued to refine the demonic corpse.
Finally.
After another half a month.
The demonic corpse was finally almost completely refined.
