Chapter 118: Heaven Origin Cultivators' Nexus
Translator: Ash Editor: Geoffrey
"Li Yao!"
Ding Yin shouted a tily warning, waking him from his stupor: "These blood-colored specks of light are the demonic power left behind by the demon beasts. Only cultivators who have sufficient strength could purify and absorb them through secret techniques! Since you have just broken through, your cultivation is still shallow. If you keep on absorbing this much demonic power, your spiritual energy will only be contaminated by demonic energy, and you will lose your truth, effectively turning into a demon who knows nothing but slaughtering!"
Li Yao was terrified. Only now did he co to realize that he was just a step away from embarking on the demonic path. He imdiately closed his spiritual root, preventing the invasion of demonic power.
However, the demonic energy was spread everywhere and were spread even over the hills and the valleys. It appeared to be as vast as the sea and could be described as inexhaustible. Although there was such a trendous amount of energy in front of him, all he could do was look. He was unable to absorb it and convert it into his own energy, causing the newly-born cultivator, the “hungry” Li Yao, to beco truly envious.
It was akin to placing a hot, steaming chicken in front of a person who had been starving for three days and three nights, only to tell him that the chicken was poisonous—this anxious waiting feeling, which was later denied, caused Li Yao to feel as if his heart was being clawed at by a cat. He quickly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Li Yao was suddenly struck by a thought. Absorbing just a wisp of demonic energy, he tried to send it to the depths of his neural field, where the tree of mories left by Ou Yezi was.
Before the wisp of demonic energy had even gotten near the tree of mories, the demonic energy silently disintegrated and turned into the purest of spiritual energy!
"There is a way!" Li Yao's heart started beating rapidly; he was wild with joy.
According to Ding Yin, only the strongest of cultivators could purify demonic energy.
Although Li Yao was a newbie who had just entered the world of cultivation, the tree of mories in his neural field was congealed from Ou Yezi's vast spiritual energy. Using it to purify the remnant demonic energies of the Ghost Jellyfish and Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes was simply akin to using a cannon to kill a chicken and putting fine timber to petty uses!
However, Li Yao didn't want to wantonly absorb the demonic energy. The residual soul of Ou Yezi was his most guarded secret and was sothing he never intends to reveal. For now, he was still being patient; he was waiting for an opportune mont to return later and completely absorb the demonic energy.
"Bo… Bo… Bo..."
The soul search squad continued moving forward, searching for the residual souls in this vast wilderness. Although they had still gained nothing after 3-4 hours, everyone was accustod to it and not a single one of them revealed a dejected look.
A residual soul was not so easy to find. If not for so lucky coincidence, good luck that was as large as the heaven, or a strong expert with superb cultivation, then after a cultivator had fallen, the soul would often vanish into a puff of smoke.
In the past, even after a hundred cultivators had fallen, sotis not even a single wisp of residual spirit could be found. Otherwise, in the cultivation world, wouldn't "souls be floating and filling the sky, and the spectral cultivators would be found walking everywhere"?
This ti, just converting Ding Yin into a spectral cultivator was already enough.
Traversing over a small mound, everyone was a little dispirited and discouraged. The soul search squad's captain waved his hand to return. Just as they were about to turn back, Li Yao's heart stirred, and he imdiately looked towards the southwest.
Towards the southwest, there was nothing, yet he always felt as if sothing or soone was staring at him.
"Check in that direction. I think there is sothing there," Li Yao said to the soldier managing the "tuba".
"Quickly, quickly increase the power! A newly advanced cultivator's perception is often particularly keen. There might be sothing there!" Ding Yin beca excited.
"Bo… Bo… Bo..." The tube gradually turned towards the southwest.
"Bo… Bo… Bo… BoBoBoBoBo!" The monotonous sound suddenly beca rapid like drumbeats, and soon, an extrely faint black point appeared in the upper right corner of the hologram.
"Quickly scatter the 'Revealing Soul Particles'!" the soul search squad's captain shouted in a loud voice.
Two soul search squad mbers picked up two thick and long steel pipes. The back of the steel pipes flashed with a spiritual radiance before two balls of azure mist shot out with a "Boom!".
"Bang!"
The azure balls of mist burst open in the sky before a mist of crystal powder covered the entire sky; it was as though there were a million fireflies flying in the sky!
The fluorescent crystal powder, by the virtue of the wind, very quickly spread across a radius of a few hundred ters; the heaven and the earth were painted in an azure color.
Amidst this azure world, a light-gray fog suddenly appeared. The fog was extrely hazy and continuously moved. Gradually, the fog congealed into an extrely weak human form that was completely confused as it gradually floated towards the sky.
Although it was faintly discernible, with one glance, Li Yao recognized it to be Wei Qingqing—the orchid in a deep valley-like college student who had just graduated from the Sky Fantasia Academy and was preparing to go to a mountain village as a teacher!
"We found another!"
All the mbers of the soul search squad were imnsely excited. Much to their surprise, out of the seven cultivators who had fallen, two could beco spectral cultivators—their luck was truly heaven-defying!
Only the soul search squad's captain had a solemn look; he was still being conscientious and ticulous.
He cautiously drove the military shuttle towards the residual soul. In his hands, the huge battle shuttle was as silent as a cat.
Everyone held their breath.
In the captain's hand, a round magical equipnt, one which looked like a bud that was ready to bloom, appeared. As he infused his spiritual energy into it, the bud slowly blood into a tender and beautiful flower.
The captain aligned the flower's pistils towards Wei Qingqing's residual soul and recited out loud, "I beseech the spirit to co back to us and embark on the road of dark cultivation—co!"
Wei Qingqing's residual soul lightly shook before it turned into a wisp of smoke and was sucked into the flower. The petals of the flower, in the blink of an eye, closed up and had once again returned to a flower bud; however, it was now emitting a weak, azure splendor.
"Thanks to you we were able to save another fellow daoist!" Ding Yin patted Li Yao shoulder and said with relief.
...
When Li Yao returned to the dical treatnt tent, Guan Xiong had already left. However, he had left a jade chip behind. Just as Li Yao lightly touched it, Guan Xiong's heroic voice resounded in his mind:
"Little brother, Old Guan is going to return to the Mountain Sea Sect to recuperate. Hahaha! After I have completely recovered, I will co and look for you at the Grand Desolate War Institution. At that ti, we will have a blast! You have just entered the world of cultivation, so you are still a newbie who knows nothing at all. In this jade chip, there is sothing that will be very helpful to you. As soon as you can, install it into your crystal processor—but, you need to find a crystal processor with strong computational power!"
Upon inspecting the jade chip carefully, Li Yao discovered that what was stored inside was an extrely huge and imnsely dense structure of telepathic thoughts which could not be understood using his brain alone.
"What kind of telepathic thoughts are these?"
Li Yao beca extrely curious. He imdiately started up his crystal processor and inserted the jade chip. The telepathic thoughts were copied inside the crystal processor.
These telepathic thoughts were as vast as the sea; it took more than ten minutes to completely copy them.
Opening the virtual keyboard, Li Yao launched the telepathic thoughts.
"Creak! Creak! Creak!"
The crystal processor suddenly let out ear-piercing noises; every one of its components was overloaded. Each crystal embedded inside the crystal processor was flickering; it appeared that the crystal processor could not withstand the powerful impacts contained in the telepathic thoughts.
Only after five minutes were the telepathic thoughts completely running. After the telepathic thoughts installed inside the crystal processor were completely launched, they had actually used up 3/4th of the computational power of the crystal processor, causing the crystal processor to beco extrely hot and incomparably slow.
"These telepathic thoughts are so powerful!" Li Yao was shocked.
Although his crystal processor was not so high-end stuff that cost a million bucks, it had still been specially modified. Its computational power was far more than any ordinary, personal crystal processor. For this crystal processor, running so huge telepathic thoughts was simply as easy as blowing dust, and its computational speed was as fast as lightning.
However, Li Yao didn't expect that these telepathic thoughts would cause his crystal processor to be like an old bullock pulling a broken cart that was panting at every step.
Li Yao carefully observed and found a small icon that was displaying a flying sword soaring amidst the clear blue sky at the center of the hologram, underneath which were four words:
"Heaven Origin Cultivators' Nexus!"
Li Yao lightly tapped the virtual keyboard and launched the mysterious website.
"Creak! Creak!"
The crystal processor was once again wailing from overloading.
Apparently, it would be best for him to upgrade its configuration after returning, only then would it be possible for it to run as fast as the wind.
"Beep, scanning telepathic thoughts. Your crystal processor does not et the standard requirents to run the Heaven Origin Cultivators' Nexus. Closing so of the abilities so as to start at the lowest settings!"
"If you want to launch the complete abilities of the Heaven Origin Cultivator's Nexus, it is recomnded that you upgrade the crystal processor. The configuration is as follows..."
"If you want to launch the complete abilities of the Heaven Origin Cultivator's Nexus, it is recomnded that you upgrade the crystal processor. The configuration is as follows..."
A sweet and tender female voice ca.
As Li Yao swept a glance, his eyes were suddenly transfixed—what's the bloody backing of the Heaven Origin Cultivators' Nexus? Its configuration requirents were too high! Even if I bought crystal processor components to assemble, just the standard configuration would cost
3,000-5,000 bucks!
If it was the top configuration that gave the "best experience
