Chapter 781 Mysterious Demonic Technique: Nine Death Elixir
Hanako-ryu refocused her divine sense on the battle.

As a master of the Void Step technique, his mastery of the Nine Heavenly Laws has reached a higher level, enough to form a unique "Void Step Domain" around his body.

Furthermore, their supernatural powers can be summoned and released at will, almost instinctively.

Hanako-ryu's Void Step Domain is very unique, its foundation being a demonic eye he cultivated between his eyes.

This demonic eye was forged using the method of external alchemy, and it is mixed with the demonic thoughts that Hanako-ryu has cultivated for many years. It is close to a magical treasure and a supernatural power. It is rarely used in daily life, but once it is activated, it can see through the opponent's strengths and weaknesses and corrupt them invisibly. It is truly remarkable.

However, Hanako-ryu accidentally injured this demonic eye during a fight with the neighboring Black Blood Cult more than a decade ago, and has been recuperating and rarely using it in recent years.

On a whim today, I directly invoked the power of this demonic eye to carefully observe the two sides fighting on the field.

The Demon Eye unfolded, and Su Che immediately turned his head to look at it.

There seemed to be a deep vortex between Hanako's eyebrows, constantly tearing at the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy).

Inside the arena, Lü Zheng and Dugu Rou are locked in a fierce battle.

His body was covered in countless wounds and many disfigurements, yet his fists grew faster and faster, and as if he had no teacher, his arms faintly emitted the sound of wind and thunder.

At the same time, although his wounds were still bleeding profusely, his aura was constantly rising.

At this moment, Lü Zheng had lost all thought and had surrendered everything to his instincts.

Indeed, he wasn't using his eyes to see or his ears to hear; instead, he entrusted everything to the source of heat within his body.

Within his dantian, a warm power was continuously emanating, flowing into his limbs and bones, causing him to move involuntarily.

His fists were like thunderbolts, like howling winds.

At this moment, Dugu Rou, who had a higher cultivation level, was forced into a defensive position under the fierce attack.

Although he was a cultivator at the Divine Realm with a long and powerful aura, his initial recklessness and playful intentions led him into a close-quarters combat predicament, putting him at a disadvantage.

Lu Zheng was like a martial arts scholar who had achieved mastery, with martial arts energy faintly visible in his fists.

At this moment, even Hanako Ryu had to frown and reassess the power that Lü Zheng had displayed.

However, unlike the thunderclap that heralds an impending summer downpour, Lü Zheng's furious punches suddenly came to an abrupt halt.

Just as he was relentlessly bombarding Dugu Rou's protective magic and infiltrating it with bolts of lightning, Lü Zheng suddenly flew backward like a kite with a broken string.

Moreover, he fell directly to the ground and stopped breathing immediately.

Dugu Rou was caught in the middle of the situation and did not react, but Hua Ziliu had already seen through it all. This young disciple, who had just gained the upper hand, was now dead.

Could it be that he has completely exhausted his innate vital energy?
Although Lu Zheng's face still had a rosy glow, in Hua Ziliu's eyes, he had already exhausted his most important innate energy, and his entire being had lost its foundation for survival.

Primordial energy is the foundation of a person's lifespan, representing the "natural lifespan" that their soul can originally achieve.

Now, all the life-giving energy has been squandered by Lü Zheng, transformed into those swift and powerful fist strikes.

Hanako Ryuu withdrew her intrigued gaze.

What Yang Sui refined was indeed a demon core, and the most insidious kind at that.

Only those desperate criminals would be interested in such elixirs.

"Go and collect it, carry it to the hall, I need to examine it later."

Su Che gave an order to Sun Cheng, who hurriedly went down to take away Lü Zheng's body.

The person who was most surprised at this moment was Dugu Rou, who was still in the middle of the field and had not yet reacted.

"Brother Dao, you have indeed refined excellent pills."

Hanako Ryu bid farewell to Su Che with satisfaction.

This master of the Longevity Sect, who had already obtained what he wanted, could now leave with a sense of triumph.

Su Che nodded slightly and saw him off. Once Hua Ziliu was gone, Su Che immediately returned to Lingyu Palace and ordered Sun Cheng to seal the main hall, forbidding anyone from entering or leaving.

Then someone walked up to Lü Zheng's "corpse".

The "elixir" that Su Che gave to Lü Zheng was not actually a pure external elixir of the demonic sect, but rather a fusion of the "spirit-planting" method from the "Taiyi Donghua Jade Book".

This set of things originates from the ancient Azure Emperor Lingwei Yang, and has its own mystical properties, which in a sense are close to the way of the "God Lord".

The first step is to condense a "spiritual seed," which is a microcosm of the cultivator's own Dao foundation and symbolizes the original flow of their Dharma lineage.

Then the spirit is implanted into the bodies of other practitioners.

The spiritual seed will slowly take root and sprout, forming a mutually beneficial and symbiotic relationship with the practitioner.

The cultivator provides the spiritual seed with innate vital energy, and the spiritual seed will then bestow supernatural powers and cultivation methods upon the cultivator.

As long as it doesn't involve short-sighted exploitation or forcing growth, this mutually beneficial relationship will continue to move forward.

Cultivators can continuously ascend through the power of their spiritual seeds, which in turn continuously grow stronger.

When a practitioner reaches the Void Step cultivation level, this symbiotic relationship is considered to have come to fruition naturally.

Cultivators can replenish the innate energy they have lost, while spiritual seeds possess almost limitless innate energy and will continue to ascend.

In Su Che's view, this seemed to be a kind of "mass production" tactic.

At first, there was a sense of "sowing a lot but reaping little," since many people could not possibly reach the Void Step Realm. However, the thought of having a large army that could break through their original limits and demonstrate a higher level of combat power at any time became a reality.

Su Che could guess that this was a method from an ancient demon god.

Perhaps this method originated from the ancient demon gods' creation of "primordial alien species".

However, his current state is not enough to create a perfect "spiritual seed". His Dao foundation is trapped and the pressure brought by the Heavenly Demon Sea makes it impossible for Su Che to condense the spiritual seed he wants.

There are also ways to bypass it.

That is, by using the external alchemy technique originating from the ancient Azure Emperor lineage, mixing in a certain amount of spirit-planting methods, and combining it with the transcendent power obtained from refining the Heavenly Demon, a kind of elixir whose specific effects Su Che did not know was finally refined.

In other words, it was an experimental subject.

The result of the experiment was Lü Zheng, who now had a thick layer of black calluses on his face, and Su Che could hear his heart beating again in his chest.

Nine Deaths Elixir.

This is the name Su Che gave to this elixir.

The seed spirit contained within the elixir can store a portion of the seeds of Taoist arts and supernatural powers within it, while also absorbing innate primordial energy.

But most importantly, the outward manifestation of this elixir is the extension of lifespan, while its core function is the absorption of innate vital energy.

When the user is injured or depleted to a certain extent, the drug takes effect and causes the user to fall into a state of apparent death.

Then, the user is modified while in a state of suspended animation. Of course, this modification consumes the user's most precious innate vital energy.

From the perspective of squeezing out innate vital energy, this seems to be a step further than simply planting spiritual energy.

However, from a legal perspective, it represents a slip from the path of the divine to the level of being corrupted by the demonic forces, and Su Che does not know what the final outcome will be.

After all, this method is more similar to the demonic sect's practice of cultivating Yin demons than to the spirit-planting technique created by Ling Weiyang.

But none of this matters.

As Lü Zheng gradually regained his vitality, Su Che also felt that his Dao foundation, which had been suppressed by the Heavenly Demon Sea and the Earth Book, was loosening under the weight of the many barriers.

There is a door.
