Chapter 387: Demon Rebellion, Level 4 Soul Transformation

Lu Changan, who was practicing in seclusion, realized that Xuan Shuigui's promotion was within his expectations.

After absorbing a large amount of innate turbidity from the decay of Xuantian's relics, the Xuan Shui Turtle's bloodline transformed, at least comparable to that of a heavenly creature. Although it is a third-level Xuan Turtle, its lifespan is not much lower than that of Lu Changan.

The lifespan of ordinary monster species is similar to that of humans. However, those legendary species, such as true spirit dragons and phoenixes, and unicorn black turtles, have extremely long lifespans. The corresponding descendants of true spirit bloodlines, and species above the earth level, also have lifespans far longer than ordinary monsters.

.

"This fourth-level blood dragon fruit is a rare body-refining holy fruit in the world of immortality. Even if it cannot advance me to the fourth-level body-refining fruit, it can still increase my physical strength."

Lu Changan took out a jade box and unsealed a dragon-scale bloody fruit, whose value was close to the Tianying Fruit.

The huge blood energy of heaven and earth surged in the secret room.

During the Nascent Soul Heavenly Thunder Tribulation three years ago, Lu Changan's refining body had been somewhat baptized by the Heavenly Thunder.

At that time, his body-refining bottleneck was faintly loosened, but he lost this feeling again after overcoming the tribulation.

This fourth-level blood dragon fruit was the dividend compensation given by Jing Wufeng after he came out of the Ancient Nether Palace.

Lu Changan originally planned to collect more precious body refining materials in the future to refine a breakthrough body refining holy elixir.

However, the current era in the world of immortality is not suitable for physical cultivation. The body-refining treasure materials of level 4 and above are almost extinct, and it is still far away from gathering the materials.

Even if you refine a fourth-level body-refining holy elixir that is a breakthrough, there is no guarantee that you will be promoted to the fourth level.

In addition to qualifications and opportunities, there are also constraints from the world and the environment.

In recent times, fifth-level body refining has been unheard of, and fourth-level body refining may be the limit in the human world. Therefore, the difficulty of promotion is far greater than that of a child.

Lu Changan simply took it immediately. Even if the chance of promotion was very low, he could still improve his physical training strength.

A few days later.

Lu Changan failed to advance to the fourth level through body training.

However, his body, energy, and blood have increased significantly by several percent, and the bottleneck has been loosened, allowing him to reach the quasi-fourth level of body refining.

The impact of body training was just a small episode during Lu Changan's retreat.

Most of his energy is used to improve magical powers and secret techniques.

With the insights from the fourth life of the Nascent Soul, and the memories and experiences of many Nascent Souls, Lu Changan practiced certain similar magical powers and secrets, and it was easy to understand by analogy.

For example, "Phantom Wood Clone" is very consistent with the attributes of the Evergreen Kung Fu. The memories of the three Nascent Souls all showed that they had practiced similar physical skills.

Lu Changan practiced "Phantom Wood Clone" in this life and easily achieved a small success.

In essence, in addition to maintaining his original intention, Lu Changan is equivalent to the reincarnation of the old monster Nascent Soul and rebuilding, not the fusion of residual souls and half-baked rebuilding like Hu Ang.

…

During the retreat, another three years passed.

On this day, Yunxia Sect gave birth to a late-stage pill-forming master named Caiyue Zhenren.

Compared with when Lu Changan first came to Yunxia Sect, the sect's luck was much stronger and it was a prosperous scene.

The old and new members of the sect are changing, and capable people are emerging in large numbers. From top to bottom, everything is clearly beyond the era when True Lord Yunlan was in power.

Some monks in the sect privately discussed that Zixia Zhenjun was better at managing the sect than his senior brother Yun Lan.

The newly promoted Master Caiyue held a small celebration.

Xiao Qingshan sent a congratulatory gift to Lu Changan. After all, Master Caiyue gave a generous gift during the Nascent Soul Ceremony.

"In the past six months, the General Affairs Office has added two new tasks to exterminate demons. It's very strange."

"Not only our Yunxia Sect, but also some demonized monsters have appeared sporadically in various major forces in the Dayu Kingdom. Fortunately, most of them are below the third level and are not harmful."

"With such abnormal signs, could it be that the catastrophe of demonic chaos is about to sweep through the Central Region again?"

At the Xiaoqing party, the monks of the sect talked loudly, among which the signs of the demon's resurgence was a hot topic.

For Xiao Qingshan, demon chaos is unfamiliar. When the demon disaster happened last time, his mother was not even born.

Several high-level sects present here have long been concerned about this.

However, the current small number of middle and low-level monsters is not enough for them to take action personally.

Xuefeng Sect Master whispered: "The signs of the demon's resurgence this time are much earlier than before. According to the predictions of the divination master, the demon chaos will break out on a large scale within ten years at the latest, and the Central Region will bear the brunt."

Master Caiyue sighed quietly: "The demon disaster has little impact on the top level of the world of immortality, but I don't know how many ordinary monks will die."

…

After Xiaoqing, Xiao Qingshan returned to Yunlan Peak and compiled and recorded the recent outside information in jade slips for Xiang Zhenjun to review after he leaves the customs.

The signs of demonic calamity have no effect on Lord Diyan.

Ever since Xuan Shui Turtle was promoted to the late third level, it has also begun to practice diligently in the past few years.

At the same time, he did not forget to supervise Hu Ang's every move.

Recently, a blue-armored puppet with the same mission sat cross-legged in the underground palace, entering a state of tranquility that seemed to be half asleep, completely forgetting the outside world.

Both the master and the blue-armored puppet are in seclusion, so Mr. Diyan has no choice but to shoulder the heavy burden.

Lu Changan is not closed off about life and death, and his spiritual consciousness occasionally checks the situation in the outside world.

"If the demon rebellion breaks out within ten years, it will be a good opportunity."

Lu Changan murmured.

He thought about the monsters he encountered during his travels. Although they were controlled by ghost cultivators, it was not accidental.

During the past demon turmoil, some remaining demons, or demonic power, were scattered in every corner of the Central Territory of the Great Abyss.

The demon disaster in the Central Region is said to have a certain connection with the Ancient Nether Palace.

Normally, the demonic turmoil occurs around 16 years after the ancient Youdian Palace.

But the last time the Ancient Youdian Palace was also unusual, there were a large number of participants, and the chance of finding treasures was greater than before.

…

Five years later.

The number of monsters in the Central Abyss has increased significantly, and third-level monsters occasionally appear, bringing destruction to various places in the world of immortality.

In the forbidden area of ​​​​the Central Territory, demonic energy surged, and many monsters with confused intelligence rushed out in advance.

One-third of Yunxia Sect's sect tasks are related to exterminating demons.

This year, Lu Changan finally ended his ten-year retreat.

After ten years of hard training, Lu Changan's magic power has improved slightly, but his magical power has improved significantly.

With ten years of limited time, Lu Changan majored in the highly lethal "Destroying Divine Light" and supplemented it with several other magical powers and secrets that Yi learned.

The reason why I majored in "Destroying Divine Light" is because it is compatible with the wood-based exercises, especially the Evergreen Technique, which is also very lethal to living creatures.

The characteristic of "Destroying Divine Light" is to stifle vitality, which is extremely harmful to flesh and blood creatures, animals and plants.

It is said that the land hit by the "Destroying Divine Light" will not grow a single blade of grass within a hundred years.

If it hits a monk, the life essence will be greatly withered.

Take Lu Changan's Nascent Soul Master's "Withered Divine Light" as an example. If an ordinary alchemy monk is hit from the front, he will turn into a pile of withered bones in an instant.

Even if the Nascent Soul cultivator gets involved in the body, the essence, blood and vitality will be lost, which will reduce the temporary fighting strength.

If "Destroying Divine Light" is cultivated to a great level, it usually takes the middle and late stages of Nascent Soul to reach it, and its power reaches a higher level. If it is slightly touched during a fight, the target's lifespan can be reduced.

To practice this magical power, Lu Changan consumed a lot of blood and energy. In order to speed up the progress, he also lost three years of his life.

This is because he has reached the fourth level of physical training, and if his quality of essence, blood, and vitality were replaced by an ordinary Nascent Soul, he would probably lose ten years of his life.

If one consumes essence, blood and lifespan at all costs during the battle, the power of "Destroying Divine Light" can be increased to a higher level, which poses a great threat to monks below the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

With this magical power, Lu Changan has greatly strengthened his offensive capabilities.

Of course, there is no perfect magical power in the world.

"Withered Divine Light" also has limitations.

First, this magical power can penetrate the spiritual light of the magic shield, but it is easily blocked by defensive magic weapons, especially heavy magic weapons and metallic magic weapons.

After all, "Destroying Divine Light" belongs to the wood-type magical power, and it also has attribute restraints.

Secondly, its lethality against non-living things is very weak, such as dead puppets.

Things like puppets and zombies are not living things, so they are not afraid of the "Destruction Divine Light".

However, as a puppet master, Lu Changan has many puppets and is not afraid of being restrained by such means.

In addition to these two limitations, there are also things that most magical powers have in common.

No matter how powerful your magical power is, it must hit the target to be effective.

If the target is extremely fast or has a higher level, if it is blocked and resolved, the "Destroying Divine Light" will not be able to touch the enemy's body. Even if the effect is incredible, it will be in vain.

Lu Changan is not worried about this. He has many methods to help him. Puppet, spiritual pet, treasure talisman, and magic weapon can all be involved and suppress the enemy. On this basis, he can activate the "Destroying Divine Light" and it will be even more powerful!

…

In addition to magical powers and secret techniques, Lu Changan also found time to refine and improve the quality of his main magic weapons and smelt precious materials.

[Dragon Wood Staff] Smelts dragon bones, purifies dragon blood, and improves the quality of its power.
