Water Ink Panel: Starting with Bow Technique to Hunt the Sun and Patrol the Skies Chapter 446 42: Refining the Demon Core, Future Plans

That evening, Shangao Village lit up with bonfires, and the villagers sang and danced around them.

In daylight, a furry, robust leg of "Huang Daxian" had been chopped off by the villagers, cut into pieces, and roasted by the fireside.

Juices sizzled from the fatty at.

Many villagers gathered around the demon's carcass, eagerly devouring it with smiles on their faces.

The flesh of this demon was rich in essence. Many young people in the village felt their bodies beco robust and their strength greatly increase after eating it.

Even the village chief looked radiant and spirited.

As he ate, the village chief suddenly rembered sothing and called a young man, "Hurry, take so of this roasted at to Young Master Shen. We mustn't hog this all to ourselves and forget our benefactor."

"Hey, Sanlengzi has already taken it. But, you know, he's an Immortal; he doesn't care for such trifles and won't eat them."

The village chief was surprised and curiously looked in a particular direction of the village.

In Shangao Village, inside a tidy earthen house.

On a flat wooden bed, Shen Qing sat cross-legged, his body surrounded by a faint halo of Spiritual Energy.

With his eyes closed and concentrating, his hands ford seals, beginning to refine the precious dicine and Demon Core in his hands.

Generally, a Demon Core contains many impurities and violent energy, which would need to be neutralized with other dicinal herbs, but for Shen Qing, who had now reached the Primordial Spirit Realm, this was no longer necessary.

He could remove these impurities and violent energies with his Primordial Spirit. After purging the impurities, he could directly consu the refined Demon Core to strengthen himself.

After a day's refining, Shen Qing had purified more than a dozen Demon Cores.

With a thought, he circulated his Physical and Spiritual Power.

The Spiritual dicines and Demon Cores, one by one, were swallowed into his stomach, transforming into a gentle stream that slowly rged into his body.

Each droplet was filled with mighty Life Force and pure energy.

As these precious dicines and Demon Cores were refined, Shen Qing's aura gradually beca profound and powerful.

Inside him, Spiritual Power continuously travelled through his blood and ridians, following a specific route mapped out by the Six Paths Reincarnation Technique.

Bright lights lit up in his acupoints, connecting to form a mottled and complex pathway.

Gradually, his skin beca translucent, and the surrounding fluctuations of Spiritual Power grew stronger.

Nourished by this power, every circulation of Spiritual Power enhanced his cultivation, eased his injuries, and even repaired his damaged Primordial Spirit.

After an indeterminate period, Shen Qing erged from his ditation, returning to lucidity and slowly exhaling a breath of stale air, stirring his Primordial Spirit.

Suddenly, another Shen Qing, identical to him, burst from his body and floated in front of him.

This Primordial Spirit had many fine cracks on one arm, and upon closer inspection, one could see that it was missing a piece the size of a thumb, a result of forcibly using the Ancient Blade.

Repairing it would not be an overnight task.

Under Shen Qing's control, the dazzling golden Primordial Spirit stretched its body, distancing itself from its host.

The Primordial Spirit then stood silently on an unnad barren hill.

After about a quarter of an hour there, Shen Qing felt the cold wind slashing at him like knives from the sky, making it difficult to endure.

He silently estimated that this ti his Primordial Spirit could fly two miles away and last for a quarter of an hour.

Compared to before, there was significant Progress, but there was still a vast difference from the true Kongyou Realm, where the Primordial Spirit could beco a second life, traversing the heavens and earth freely.

At this mont, ti and distance had reached the limits that his Primordial Spirit could endure.

Shen Qing did not linger outside any longer and returned to his original self.

He hurried along, but his mind was preoccupied with planning for the future.

Right now, Ji Zikong, by slaughtering a clan mber in front of everyone, clearly showed his hand, abandoning his identity as an emperor, wanting to monopolize all the spiritual martial chanisms to vie for the Great Dao.

In addition, various major families deliberately breeding demons had led to demons rampaging everywhere, devouring human lives.

Shangao Village was just a part of this.

The world had already lost order, and great chaos was imminent.

In such chaotic tis, being targeted by Ji Zikong, he might be retaliated against at any mont; the slightest carelessness could result in death and the annihilation of his path.

"It seems I need to quickly enhance my strength," Shen Qing silently considered, "If I face Ji Zikong again, I should at least be at the Great Perfection of the Kongyou Realm to stand a fighting chance. The cultivation of the Unity Realm is too powerful; such martial masters are very hard to kill."

"The spiritual power in Jinzhou is too sparse, unsuitable for cultivation. I'll have to go sowhere else once my injuries have improved a bit more."

Shen Qing thought for a mont and made his decision.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Shen Qing continued to sit cross-legged, channeling the Six Paths Reincarnation Technique.

The spiritual power inside his body began to surge, continuously moving in the Grand Circulation, making his internal spiritual power increasingly abundant.

After an unknown amount of ti, Shen Qing suddenly awoke from his cultivation.

He opened his eyes, which flashed with sharp light.

At this mont, he realized that his body's injuries had mostly healed and were no longer a major concern. Even the skirmish with Ji Zikong had brought so insights that were beneficial to the advancent of his cultivation.

"It's about ti to leave."

Shen Qing stood up, feeling the surging spiritual energy within his body, in high spirits.

He pushed the door open and saw the little girl Niuniu alone, playing hopscotch by the door.

She saw Shen Qing and exclaid joyously, "Big brother, you've finally co out."

Shen Qing smiled and said, "You've been here this whole ti?"

Niuniu nodded, innocently saying, "Yeah. Everyone in the village says big brother is a 'True Immortal' and doesn't need to eat or drink, but I was worried, so I ca to check on you."

"Niuniu, have your dad co over, I have so things to ask him."

"My dad went out to work; he won't be back until noon."

Shen Qing asked, "Is your village's chief around then?"

The little girl, Niuniu, nodded, "He is; he hasn't gone out these past two days."

"Good, I'll go to him. You can go back now." Shen Qing took strides toward the village chief's house.

The little girl Niuniu called out to Shen Qing, "Big brother, are you leaving?"

Shen Qing paused in his steps but did not answer.

When Shen Qing arrived at the village chief's house, the chief was, as usual, sitting on the threshold smoking his pipe.

Upon seeing Shen Qing approaching, the chief quickly stood up, bowing and scraping, "Young Master Shen."

"I need to ask you sothing," Shen Qing began.

Shen Qing had killed that yellow skin and saved the entire Shangao Village, a great kindness to their village of dozens of people.

Even though the chief might not be the clearest in other matters, he was very clear about such significant matters. He hurriedly said, "Young Master Shen, just ask. I definitely won't conceal what I know."

Shen Qing asked, "I want to ask you if you know about the Huang Tian Sect?"
