Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 112: Blood Feast Evolution, Evolution Frenzy (Please Subscribe!)
Chaoyang Peak is a blessed land.

A strange snow-capped mountain peak, shrouded in flowing clouds, can only be ascended at the turn of each season. From its summit, one can see the projection of the Great Sun of all realms. Cultivating here allows one to draw upon the essence of the Great Sun to practice pure Yang techniques or refine the body with its vital energy, while simultaneously experiencing the magnificent energy of heaven and earth.

Li Chunfeng summoned the Purple Clouds and Mist.

The purple clouds and mist transformed into a pale purple cloud, enveloping him within it.

The restrictions within the magical artifact activated, automatically absorbing the continuous flow of primordial purple light to refine itself. If the artifact were placed here, it might automatically advance to a second-tier magical artifact in less than ten years.

With a thought, it instantly transformed into a streak of light, flying up and down Chaoxia Peak. Its speed was incredibly fast, and its movements were silent. Although it could not match the flying speed of the White Cloud Demon Spirit, it was also beyond the reach of ordinary magical flying boats.

It's just that the consumption is quite high.

It had only been flying for less than fifteen minutes when it had already consumed over a thousand units of soul power.

Magical artifacts are indeed not something that cultivators at the Burning Lamp Realm can use.

Fortunately, his Black Lotus Undying Soul has the 'revival' property, which can offset some of the consumption, and the rest is enough for daily use.

After practicing his magic weapon for a while, he left Chaoyang Peak with great satisfaction.

Back in my dorm, I logged into the National Library and searched for "Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Nourishing Mind Sword Technique".

"It's actually a divine-level sword technique. Lord Daojun thinks too highly of me."

As Li Chunfeng read more carefully, he gradually discovered the extraordinary nature of this sword technique.

It turns out they were using malevolent energy to forge and nurture the sword.

At the same time, it is both a sword-nurturing technique and a sword formation technique.

To unleash the full power of the sword formation, at least twelve Heavenly Divine Fiend Flying Swords are required.

Even if an ordinary person had so many flying swords, they wouldn't have enough spiritual power to support the deployment of the sword formation.

"Did Daojun recommend me to learn this sword technique because my soul power is far superior to that of ordinary people?"

However, what kind of flying sword is nurtured by evil energy and flesh and blood—a divine sword or a demonic sword?

This sword technique is divided into twelve levels, and obtaining the complete manual requires hundreds of millions of cultivation points.

If you redeem them separately, you won't get that many.

The first level, in particular, only requires three million Dao power.

Li Chunfeng currently has nearly six million Dao merits, which should be enough to exchange for the first level.

So he decisively applied to exchange for this supernatural sword technique.

The information on the official website has also changed to "under review," indicating that it will take at least half a month for the results to be available.

It seems that high-level items like the Divine Sword Technique cannot be obtained simply by having money; personal information must also be examined.

Hopefully, the results will be out before the finals.

Li Chunfeng quickly put the matter out of his mind.

I quietly went out.

He made a wide detour through the city, repeatedly using the blinking technique to turn left and right. Only after confirming that he was not being followed did he leave the city and immediately ride the cloud to disappear into the horizon.

He has every reason to act cautiously.

We used to move around in the city, which was relatively safe, but now we have to leave the city.

It is said that the demon race has an assassination leaderboard in the human territory.

He was willing to bet his name would be at the top of the list.

Fortunately, they did not encounter any suspicious pursuit on the way and safely returned to the desolate wasteland. Li Chunfeng saw the auction advertisement for the Earth-rank Soul Weapon Demon Core "Giant God Weapon" and the Earth-rank Weapon Soul from afar.

Because both of these Earth-rank demon cores have distinct wasteland characteristics, they have attracted many teams that have long been stationed in this area, leading to a recent surge in the number of teams venturing into the wasteland.

Some time ago, the Dead Soul Deer was discovered, prompting three powerful teams to join forces.

In the end, they only managed to severely injure the Dead Soul Deer, failing to completely capture it.

Their elaborate operation came at a considerable cost, all for a single Earth-rank demon core.

In the blink of an eye, two more Earth-rank demon cores were put up for auction.

All of these factors have spurred more adventurers to venture deeper into the wilderness to hunt and explore.

As Li Chunfeng walked through the city, he noticed that the number of people gathered there had more than doubled. Instead of immediately entering the wasteland, he turned a corner and arrived at the city's market for trading demonic beasts and demonic cores. The market was crowded with people, and many merchants were so busy that they didn't even have time to attend to new customers.

Clearly, this wave of advertising traffic from Earth-rank demon cores has also greatly benefited local businesses.

Li Chunfeng slowly examined the exhibits and found them to be characteristic of the wasteland, with quite a few soul weapons and demon cores.

Besides the Soul Weapon Demon Core, Li Chunfeng also saw all sorts of Wild Beast Demon Cores—those that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, swam in the water, and many more Wild Beasts whose names he couldn't recall and from which they came, a dazzling array.

After observing many, Li Chunfeng gradually discovered that the demon cores in the market, especially those still alive, contained relatively practical innate magical abilities. These merchants were naturally not selling demon pet cubs, but rather killing and selling them on the spot.

Customers can buy the product and either take it home to slaughter or slaughter it on the spot to remove the pit.

Quite a few people participated.

This is because these demonic beasts are priced lower than normal. If a decent demonic core or magic seed is found inside, it will naturally be a huge profit.

This move is also known as "gambling monster".

And these wild beasts are actually artificially bred?
Some large organizations have even started mature aquaculture programs in the desolate wasteland.

They'll stop at nothing to make money.

"Hmm, 'The Encyclopedia of Ten Thousand Demons - The Small World of the Silent Wasteland'?"

While passing by a rather quiet store, I was drawn to a thick book on the shelf.

Li Chunfeng stepped forward and picked it up, feeling its weight, as if a heavy iron block was pressing down on his hand.

He turned the pages and found that there was even a compression spell.

The author is a Buddhist master named Chu Ye who has devoted his life to the study of demons.

In Buddhism, the first leaf symbolizes a world within a leaf, and the world remains as it was at the beginning.

Master Chuye has written many illustrated books about the demon race in small worlds and secret realms. The Silent Wasteland is just one of them. The book records them very clearly, including the classification, rank, habits, weaknesses, and distribution areas of the wild beasts, as well as their possible bloodline talents, spells, names, effects, strengths and weaknesses, etc.

The content is also extremely detailed, with each wild beast and its talent accompanied by exquisite illustrations, most of which were hand-drawn by Master Chuye.

Li Chunfeng was overjoyed; this book was exactly what he needed.

He has 'insight' and can see many hidden information, even unbelievable hints. However, the content of the information is not subject to his will. Sometimes, it is not as good as holding a book of ten thousand demons in his hands.

The most numerous creatures are not wild beasts, but wild insects, followed by birds, with wild beasts ranking only third. Other types include wood spirits, aquatic creatures, spirits, strange creatures, elements, weapon spirits, soul soldiers, humanoids, giants, and so on.

Each major category is further subdivided into several minor categories based on their differences, totaling hundreds of categories.

Li Chunfeng was amazed; this was practically an encyclopedia of the demon race in the wasteland.

The six-winged Aedes mosquito belongs to the family Aedesidae. Li Chunfeng searched the catalog and found that the six-winged Aedes mosquito was indeed recorded.

Bloodline talents are ancient, mysterious, and profound, including devouring, evolution, mosquito armor, and stealth... They are also violent and not recommended to be contracted as demon pets.

It largely matched the information Li Chunfeng already knew, except for some spell names that were different. There were also some that he hadn't yet discovered, such as the most powerful mosquito queen known to Master Chuye, which was actually a sixth-tier wild insect.

Wouldn't that be equivalent to a Nascent Soul True Monarch?
Li Chunfeng suddenly realized that he needed to be even more cautious about his mosquito-hunting plan.

He closed the book, went to the counter, and asked, "How much is this book, sir?"

The shop owner was a shrewd old man who looked up with sleepy eyes and said, "Illustrated Compendium of Ten Thousand Demons, 1999 Dao Powers."

A book selling for such a high price! If it weren't for the fact that there are ebooks available online, he definitely wouldn't have asked the price. "999 Dao Gong!"

"make a deal!"

Li Chunfeng: "..."

Does he look like a fool?
"Uh, I meant 199!"

"make a deal!"

"..." He's an idiot.

The old man squinted at Li Chunfeng, and seeing that he was about to speak again, he immediately interrupted him, saying, "This is the lowest price. Young man, don't push your luck."

Li Chunfeng's lips twitched, but he still paid the money in the end.

After a short resupply, they entered the wasteland.

With a flash of purple light, it transformed into clouds and disappeared into the horizon.

This speed is much faster than the flying boat we rented last time.

Above the clouds, Li Chunfeng flipped through the "Illustrated Compendium of Ten Thousand Demons" to find a suitable hunting location, while also searching for map information online to find the next swamp.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at a vast, desolate plain, which was full of craters and pits, as if it had been hit by a meteorite.

The sky was a hazy blue, with twinkling stars.

Especially the many large stone spheres, hanging high in the sky, seemingly within reach, but Li Chunfeng knew that these stars were all tens of thousands of miles away.

This plain is the territory of many wasteland wolves, including the Gale Demon Wolf, Desert Coyote, Bloodfeather Sky Wolf, Frost Giant Wolf, Shadow Moon Demon Wolf, Howling Moon Sky Wolf, and so on. Each clan has a unique soul weapon.

Before long, a group of ant-like figures came into view below.

They are a pack of bone-eating wolf demons.

"Buzz~"

With a thought, the mosquito Taoist, who was almost starving, left his body.

With a flap of its wings, it transformed into a blur and flew down towards the dozen or so Bone-Eating Demon Wolves below.

Since Mosquito Taoist's strength was still weak, to avoid any accidents, Li Chunfeng used his mental power to forcefully suppress the group of demon wolves with a large handprint.

Taking advantage of the moment, the Mosquito Taoist landed on one of the wolves, and with a powerful suck of its long proboscis, the Bone-Eating Demon Wolf visibly withered into a mere skin and flesh. It let out a mournful cry and collapsed to the ground.

This is the second time since Mosquito Taoist was born that he has used 'Devour' at full power.

No wonder Hu Yifei complained all day long after being bitten once.

As his strength grew, Mosquito Taoist's ability to devour began to pose a threat.

After sucking dry one end, the Mosquito Taoist was not satisfied and decisively pounced on the next end.

In a short period of time, it devoured seven or eight first-tier demon wolves, each of which could only last for a dozen or so breaths.

Even after devouring all of the dozen or so wolf demons, it still seemed unsatisfied. It flapped its wings and flew back, circling around Li Chunfeng.

Li Chunfeng checked its condition.

[Bloodline]: Chaotic Bloodwing Black Mosquito Bloodline, Yellow Rank (1%→2%)

[Talent - Blood Feast Evolution]: Origin of Blood, Evolution Forge (4→5/10)

It's good that there's been an improvement.

So they set a fire and burned all the drained corpses to ashes.

These Bone-Eating Wolves, all of whom possessed first-tier strength, managed to leave not a single demon core behind.

Obviously.

The Yellow-Rank High-Grade 'Devour' not only devours blood, but also the primordial energy of the demon beast's core.

Immediately, the man and his pet began a frenzied hunt in the wasteland.

In order not to waste his soul, Li Chunfeng and Randeng remained in their combined demonic state. While Mosquito Daoist devoured the blood energy, Li Chunfeng also used Soul Devouring to increase his soul power, not letting go of even a tiny bit.

Half a day later, after hunting down no fewer than several kinds of demon wolves, his soul power increased considerably.

[Talent - Blood Feast Evolution] First time meeting the criteria for evolution.

Blood Origin, Evolution Forge (10/10).

"Buzz~"

The mosquito Taoist hovered restlessly around him, as if trying to tell him something.

Li Chunfeng understood immediately and landed in a safe place. His mind was closely connected with Mosquito Daoist, and he entered the darkness to begin to understand the secrets of the Blood Feast's evolution.

He suddenly felt a blur before his eyes, and a huge evolutionary network, like a golden tree, appeared in his field of vision.

Beneath the golden tree lies a pool of blood, though it is currently too small to be called a pool, but rather a blood-soaked puddle. The blood has stained the lowest trunk of the golden tree, from which twelve branches have forked.

Li Chunfeng seemed to be deep in thought.

Mortal Rank, Human Rank, Spirit Rank, Yellow Rank.

[Blood Feast Evolution] Talent Rank: Currently, it is at the upper-grade Yellow Rank.

If each rank has three evolution opportunities, that makes exactly twelve.

The first branch at the bottom of the golden tree was stained with blood, and three branches emerged at the front of the branch.

Each branch represents a different direction of evolution.

These are: Indestructible Vajra Defense/Divine Thought Poison/Flight Speed.

Li Chunfeng was stunned when he saw this scene.

Is this the remnant of the Chaos Bloodline?

The [Blood Feast Evolution] talent is just too powerful!
