Chapter 73: Inner Demon Invasion, Beating the Inner Demon into Submission, Inner Demon Dead
【In the first month, sitting on the Spirit-Gathering ditation Cushion, you feel as still as calm water, and your Divine Sea is clear and bright.】
【You consu a Divine Origin Pill. Its vast, pure dicinal power instantly floods into your limbs and bones like a torrent bursting through open gates, surging toward your Divine Sea.】
【Yet compared to the vast Divine Sea you painstakingly opened up, that torrent of dicinal power is insignificant.】
【Your talent Refining Stomach activates, greedily drawing in the pill’s essence. Not only does it increase the efficiency of refining the pill, it also continuously broadens your ridians, making them tougher and tougher.】
【At the sa ti, your Divine Sea continues to expand, thriving like a growing infant. Your physical body keeps strengthening, and your soul, nourished by your body, also improves slightly.】
Lu Zhan looked at the system prompt in surprise.
Refining Stomach actually had this kind of ability. No wonder he always felt as though the spiritual energy within him could never be used up.
But thinking about it, that made sense.
The body was the vessel that carried spiritual energy.
Only when spirit, body, and soul all grew strong together could one beco truly powerful.
【Continue consuming 5000 Slaughter Points to raise your realm.】
【Three months later, with the help of the Divine Origin Pills, the true essence accumulated within your Divine Sea finally reaches a critical point. You can feel spiritual energy filling your entire Divine Sea, and the originally faint Divine Sense within it seems to have undergone an enormous increase.】
【One day, just as you consu your twentieth Divine Origin Pill, the shackles within your body explode open.】
【Congratulations, Host. You have broken through to the Third Level of the Divine Sea Realm.】
【You continue consuming Divine Origin Pills to stabilize your realm, while launching a charge toward the Fourth Level of the Divine Sea Realm.】
...
【Continue consuming 5000 Slaughter Points to raise your realm.】
【After breaking through to the Third Level of the Divine Sea Realm, your cultivation progress slows sowhat. You know very well that the further one advances in the Divine Sea Realm, the more ti and effort must be spent polishing it down little by little, so you begin focusing on the quality and refinent of spiritual energy.】
【Another three months later, you consu a Soul-Tempering Pill. Your Divine Sense increases greatly, and the barriers of your Divine Sea beco even more solid.】
【Your soul nourishes your body, and your body trembles with pleasure. The impurities within the spiritual energy in your Divine Sea begin to be expelled continuously.】
【Congratulations, Host. You have broken through to the Fourth Level of the Divine Sea Realm.】
...
【Consu 5000 Slaughter Points to continue raising your realm.】
【One year later, your suddenly surging realm draws the attention of the inner demon “Yan.” The Spirit-Gathering ditation Cushion is resisting the inner demon’s invasion...】
【Resistance fails. Your resistance to inner demons increases by 10%, and the inner demon “Yan” is very pleased with itself.】
【In the next instant, it transforms into the appearance of your father and appears within your consciousness. The first thing it says is, “Child, I am your father.” Hearing this, you fly into a rage, split it in two with a single slash, and curse, “I’m your father!”】
【Later, when you think back on it, that one really was the original owner’s father, but it has no effect on you whatsoever.】
【Your inner demon senses your ruthlessness and decides that you are very troubleso, but it also seems extrely excited...】
...
Lu Zhan was sowhat stunned when he saw this.
What was going on? Did this world really have demons of this sort?
But...Inner demon “Yan,” was it? Good, very good. I’ll rember you. You had better pray I never run into you in the future.
Lu Zhan’s eyes turned cold, and a few more traces of killing intent appeared within them.
The system continued its deduction.
...
【Another day, the inner demon “Yan” transforms into a beautiful woman. The mont she appears, your Eyes of the Candle Dragon see through the illusion. Without the slightest hesitation, you split the inner demon in two with a single slash.】
【The inner demon suffers repeated setbacks and flies into a rage. After that, it keeps transforming into all sorts of things to tempt you: honor, fa, status, wealth... but you see through all of them.】
【Your inner demon begins to grow depressed and starts questioning whether it is even a qualified inner demon.】
【It decides to go back and continue its studies. You absorb the energy逸散 by the inner demon, your soul begins to improve slightly, and your Divine Sea expands even further.】
Outside the system, Lu Zhan let out a cold laugh when he saw this.
Very good. Just frustrating the inner demon a little had already brought such benefits. If he killed the inner demon instead, then what?
...
【Continue consuming 5000 Slaughter Points to raise your realm.】
【One month later, your inner demon regains its confidence and invades your consciousness once more. The Spirit-Gathering ditation Cushion is resisting... Resistance fails. Your resistance to inner demons increases by 10%.】
【This ti, the inner demon “Yan” learns from its previous mistakes. It senses that your hands are stained with blood, so it transforms into all kinds of enemies from your past.】
【You kill all of those enemies once, twice, three tis... When you kill them for the tenth ti, your inner demon collapses. It grows sowhat flustered. It feels that there is sothing very wrong with you.】
【Your inner demon tries to flee.】
【The inner demon’s provocation infuriates you. You fly into a furious rage. Using the Eyes of the Candle Dragon, you see through its trail. Your inner demon becos even more panicked and flees in desperate disorder, only to have a streak of red fla block its path.】
【You subject the inner demon to inhuman torture. During the torture...】
【Your inner demon howls in agony... Your inner demon is filled with regret... You beco “Yan’s” inner demon... Your inner demon begs you for rcy and declares itself willing to submit to you.】
【You refuse.】
【Your inner demon dies.】
【You receive the gift left behind after its death. Your soul feasts heartily, letting out a pleased moan, your Divine Sea expands continuously, and the barriers of your Divine Sea are reinforced to an astonishing degree.】
【Within your Divine Sea, your spiritual energy begins transforming into罡气, condensing into the embryonic form of that power.】
【Your physical body receives double nourishnt from spiritual energy and soul alike, improving greatly. Congratulations, Host. Your physical body has broken through to the level of an Upper Grade Spirit Rank Spirit Weapon.】
【Congratulations, Host. You have broken through to the Fifth Level of the Divine Sea Realm.】
【Insufficient Slaughter Points. Cultivation ended. Remaining Slaughter Points: 2000. Returned.】
Lu Zhan sat quietly upon the Spirit-Gathering ditation Cushion, his aura as deep as an abyss and as vast as a sea.
A precious radiance was hidden within his physical body. Even without exerting any force, a heart-palpitating pressure spread from every casual movent.
Within his Divine Sea, the spiritual energy held its rosy glow inward, yet had beco even sharper and fiercer.
So this was the power of the Fifth Level of the Divine Sea Realm?
Lu Zhan carefully examined himself and felt that he had undergone an astonishing transformation, especially after devouring his inner demon, which had strengthened him in every aspect.
“Inner demons really are wonderful things!”
“If I could devour ten more of them... no, just eight more inner demons, I might be able to completely transform all my spiritual energy into gang qi while still in the Divine Sea Realm.”
At that thought, Lu Zhan found cultivation more and more interesting.
According to the current classifications of the cultivation world, the early stage of the Divine Sea Realm mainly involved absorbing spiritual energy and expanding the Divine Sea; the middle stage began refining spiritual energy and solidifying the barriers of the Divine Sea; and by the later stage, the spiritual energy would begin to liquefy.
Only upon reaching the Yuan Gang Realm did one begin condensing gang qi within the body.
But then a question arose.
If soone in the Divine Sea Realm had already mastered Flight Through the Air, which should only be possible in the Yuan Gang Realm, had already comprehended Saber Intent, which also should only be possible in the Yuan Gang Realm, and had even transford spiritual energy into gang qi, then was such a person truly in the Divine Sea Realm, or in the Yuan Gang Realm?
“Heh, it looks like I’ve already won at the starting line.”
If the path of cultivation from the Divine Sea Realm to the Yuan Gang Realm were compared to a one-hundred-ter sprint, then Lu Zhan was not ahead by much.
Just ninety-nine ters.
There was still one ter left, so it seed he still needed to work harder.
