Martial God: Grinding from Mortal Flesh to Immortality Chapter 335 - 192 Strange Jade Scroll, Demon Cultivator! You

In this space, there was a stench perating the air.

All around, broken insect eggs were scattered about, emitting that foul odor.

A black figure slowly erged, revealing his true appearance in this dim space.

It was a gaunt middle-aged man clothed in black robes, with strange, undeveloped antennae on his head, making him look markedly different from a human.

The middle-aged man ignored the stench, pulled out an insect egg from his bosom. The egg contained a powerful energy.

He could even see through the egg a tiny, bizarre insect beast, emitting a sharp screech.

"Golden Core?"

"Heh!"

The middle-aged man let out a cold laugh, took the insect from the egg, and discarded the broken shell.

He swallowed the insect in one gulp.

Instantly, his face contorted in extre pain, as if he were enduring imnse agony. Sothing seed to be writhing within him, causing his flesh to ripple like waves.

"Ah!!!"

He scread, clutching his abdon, quickly began to activate the Cultivation Technique to refine the insect inside him.

This process was extrely slow, the pain lingering for several days before gradually subsiding.

The middle-aged man’s expression eventually beca normal again.

After a long while, he lay on the ground, his fierce countenance softening, and a powerful aura emanated from him.

"Phew!"

He exhaled a long breath, sat down cross-legged, ready to consolidate his newly gained cultivation, only to find a young figure slowly erging behind him.

"Kong Xiaotian!"

A calm voice echoed in the concealed space.

In an instant, Kong Xiaotian’s eyes snapped open, releasing a powerful aura, and without hesitation, he threw a punch backwards.

Bang!

However, contrary to what Kong Xiaotian expected, the young figure easily caught his fist, a smile playing on his lips.

Kong Xiaotian’s pupils contracted involuntarily.

"As expected of soone who overca the control of the insect eggs, your combat strength is indeed higher than those Golden Core experts!"

The young man spoke with a smile.

"Who are you!!"

Kong Xiaotian glared at the young man, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes, his voice icy.

The young man before him was none other than Lu Sheng.

After leaving a Blood Puppet at the Pure and Muddy Gate, Lu Sheng had released his perception, seeking out the Demon Cultivator who betrayed the Wuxiang Sect thirty years ago.

With the perception granted by the Seal of Brilliance, Lu Sheng quickly found Kong Xiaotian’s trail.

He followed him to this space.

He even witnessed how the other had cultivated by absorbing the power of the insect eggs.

Even Lu Sheng couldn’t help but marvel at the process.

"Overcoming the will of the insect egg and even using it to cultivate, such a thod... impressive!"

Lu Sheng didn’t answer Kong Xiaotian’s question but continued smiling.

Shock flickered in Kong Xiaotian’s eyes. He hadn’t realized that his cultivation process had been observed so clearly by the person before him, without his notice.

The thought of his weakest state being exposed filled Kong Xiaotian with shivers of fear.

"Who... who exactly are you!"

Kong Xiaotian’s voice was strained. Since being marked as a Demon Cultivator, he had been extrely cautious, allowing him to survive despite the Pure and Muddy Gate and other forces’ pursuits.

Yet, his caution seed utterly naive in front of this person.

"?"

Lu Sheng smiled slightly and slowly began to speak.

"You might call ... an Outer Realm Demon!"

Lu Sheng’s words hit Kong Xiaotian like a thunderbolt, causing his body to shudder uncontrollably.

Outer Realm Demon!

This was the term the Void Insect Race used to brainwash the ordinary people of this world, referring to the Daoran Sect and other flesh life forms.

If others heard these words, they would likely be filled with fear.

But Kong Xiaotian, having regained his sanity after overcoming the will of the insect egg, reacted differently.

"Outer... Realm Demon?"

His voice trembled.

He seed to lose all strength, sitting down and staring at Lu Sheng, displaying an unclear mix of joy and sorrow.

His emotions... were out of control at that mont.

Lu Sheng calmly watched Kong Xiaotian, understanding his thoughts. As one of the few clear-minded individuals in this illusory world, they lived perpetually in darkness.

They hoped one day soone would break this illusory world.

The Outer Realm Demon... thus beca their only sliver of solace.

Now, appearing before Kong Xiaotian as an Outer Realm Demon, at the mont that sliver of solace beca real...

Indescribable emotions surged up in him.

Lu Sheng waited patiently for Kong Xiaotian to calm down before speaking slowly.

"Now... can you tell how you broke free from the control of the Void Insect Race?"
