Boom.
A python as big as a mountain collapsed, shaking the ground and mountains.
Dantai Meng slit the belly of the python with a longsword and extracted the demon core.
The Splendid Magic Python was a powerful being in the Eternal Dream Devil Realm, equivalent to a human expert of the Divine King Realm at the ninth rank.
Dantai Meng also had to exhaust every method before she finally killed the magic python.
Dantai Meng operated her demonic cultivation skills, using the skills to refine the demon core and enhance her own cultivation level.
The mighty ones of the Demon Realm who enter the Eternal Dream Devil Realm must endure countless battles, growing stronger with each fight.
Cultivators of the Demon Realm generally have neither the opportunity to enter the Eternal Dream Devil Realm nor dare to venture into its dangers rashly.
The demons within the Eternal Dream Devil Realm will frenziedly attack any cultivator who enters, and the battles hardly ever cease.
But the upside here is the ability to grow rapidly.
Through endless slaughter, always on the edge of life and death, Dantai Meng’s rate of cultivation is astonishingly fast, and she has reached the brink of breakthrough.
Dantai Meng, being the daughter of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, has the same unique physique as her father and her talent is not inferior to the geniuses from the eight great Divine Palaces, only slightly behind Lu Changsheng and Emperor Ku.
However, talent is not everything. For example, the Cold Bone Demon Venerable, with the body of a mortal, forcibly cultivated demonic techniques and went through countless life-and-death battles to become one of the strongest in the Demon Realm.
Dantai Meng completely refined the magic python’s demon core, her aura reaching the peak of a fully accomplished Immortal Emperor.
“It’s time for tribulation. Hmph, once I reach the Divine King Realm, I must go to the Immortal Realm and seek revenge on that guy. With the many life-and-death battles I’ve experienced, my cultivation level and experience both surpass his.”
Dantai Meng set up a formation and took out a demon sword, preparing for tribulation.
…
At Mount Taihua, Yuntai Peak, Xiao Fan was sitting in a medicine pool in meditation, with his War Heaven Tyrant Body ferociously absorbing the medicinal power of the pool, every inch of muscle and flesh enhancing, emanating a golden glow.
Xiao Fan was cultivating the “Yellow Heaven Shedding Body Technique,” tempering his War Heaven Tyrant Body.
With the bloodline of the War Heaven Tyrant Body awakened, Xiao Fan could feel the tremendous power within his body.
“This is the ancestral bloodline power passed down to me.”
Xiao Fan opened his eyes and clenched his fists; his physique now comparable to a ninth-rank Dao Artifact.
The ancestors of the Xiao Family once led the Xiao Family’s experts wielding the War Heaven Tyrant Body, covering the rear for the cultivation group of the Human Race, blocking the Demon God and a group of Demon Kings, which shows the terror of the War Heaven Tyrant Body.
Lu Changsheng had provided Xiao Fan with various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for Body Tempering, making Xiao Fan’s physique even closer to that of the Xiao Family’s ancestors.
On another side, Lu Qinglian had also mastered the “Qing Emperor Eternal Life Art.”
The War Heaven Tyrant Body of Lu Qinglian was even more suited for martial arts cultivation than the Innate Taoist Body and was even more domineering.
For Lu Changsheng, Body Tempering was mainly for self-preservation, and his offensive means relied on swordsmanship and divine skills, while Xiao Fan and Lu Qinglian used their physical bodies as magical treasures for battle.
“It is said that when the War Heaven Tyrant Body of the Xiao Family’s ancestor reached great accomplishment, he could burst small stars with his bare hands. The potential of this disciple of mine is limitless.”
“Lian’s Martial King Divine Physique is no less formidable than the War Heaven Tyrant Body. The Martial King Divine Physique must be a type of special martial cultivator’s body from ancient times, but why does Lian have such a unique physique? Who exactly is Lian’s father, the Huang? After ascending to the Immortal Realm through tribulation, I have never heard of this person named Huang. Could it be that he failed the tribulation in the Mortal Realm and perished?”
Lu Changsheng was actually unclear about Lu Qinglian’s origins.
Lu Qinglian is a descendant of the Huang Tribe from the three thousand minor worlds; Lu Changsheng speculated that she might be the daughter of a powerful being from the Huang Tribe known as “Huang,” but Lu Qinglian had not seen Huang since she became conscious.
Lu Changsheng adopted Lu Qinglian, gave her his surname, and raised her as his daughter.
Upon further thought, the origins of Lu Qinglian herself are a mystery.
Lu Changsheng had never seen a second person who possesses the special physique of the Martial King Divine Physique.
“Never mind, it’s futile to think too much. As long as she is kind-hearted, she should not cause any major trouble.”
Lu Changsheng stopped dwelling on it and continued to nurture his disciples.
Chen Yi, the eleventh disciple, returned from his training down the mountain and was summoned by Lu Changsheng to the Dao Palace.
Chen Yi was the reincarnation of an Ancient Buddha, focusing on benevolence and spreading virtue in his usual cultivation. As Chen Yi did good deeds and accumulated virtue, Lu Changsheng, as his mentor, shared in a lot of intangible merit, allowing the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda to grow.
After years of cultivation, Chen Yi now bore the dignified presence of a Buddha.
“Have you regained your memories from previous lives?”
Lu Changsheng knew that Chen Yi’s memories of previous lives were awakening.
Once Chen Yi regained the memories of his previous life, he would understand the identity and acquire the Great Dao Comprehension from his previous life.
The reincarnation of a Buddha is to break through limits and achieve eternal life.
Chen Yi’s previous life might not be weaker than Yun Qianyue, the Chief Senior Disciple of the Heavenly Sect.
Lu Changsheng had little contact with the Buddhist Sect.
So far, Lu Changsheng’s only grudge was with the Grand Freedom Buddha from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, and he even once casually defeated Buddha Lord Xingwang, the Buddha Son of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple.
The Buddhist Holy Lands are not limited to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple; there are other holy places like Mount Sumeru, and the Western Paradise.
Although the Western Paradise is not part of the Three Realms, instead, it is a world opened by Ancient Buddhas gathering the Aspirations of All Living Beings. Its scale is between the Three Realms and the three thousand minor worlds, but there are numerous powerful Buddhas within.
These Buddhas cultivate in the Blissful Realm and rarely interfere with matters of the Three Realms.
Perhaps Chen Yi’s previous life was one of the Ancient Buddhas from the Western Paradise.
Chen Yi shook his head: “I haven’t fully recovered the memories of my past life, only some fragments.”
“Oh?”
Lu Changsheng also didn’t know if the reincarnation method of the Buddhas would be successful.
Ancient Buddhas opened the secret technique of reincarnation in pursuit of eternal life, but whether it’s successful or not, no one knows.
