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

Chapter 160, Section 159: Pleasing Him, the Evil Thoughts of the Evil God

Zhou Huang introduced at the opportune moment: "This is Li Liang, the most talented weapon forger in my class. He once independently developed a fully automated production line for a first-tier divine weapon, the Demon-Slaying Blade, which is now in use by the Demon-Slaying Battalion of the Ministry of War in the Mountain and Sea Realm City. He has also independently completed the forging of a fourth-tier ancient divine weapon. I recommend that you entrust it to him. If you are not comfortable with it, then find someone else."

what?
An automated production line for demon-slaying swords?!

Li Chunfeng reached out and a demon-slaying sword appeared in his hand. "Is this the style?"

Upon seeing it, Li Liang immediately smiled, "It's definitely this kind of demon-slaying sword. This sword is my original creation, and it has excellent armor-piercing capabilities against low-level demonic beasts. Yours was forged by a weapon master himself, not produced by an automated production line. The materials used are also quite good, and there's still room for it to be upgraded."

Li Chunfeng had no more doubts. "This sword was a gift from an elder. It was the first divine weapon I ever owned and it helped me a lot. I never expected that it was designed by you, senior. I'll leave the upgrading of the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe to you, senior. I wonder when it will be finished? My Abyss Tribulation is coming soon."

He keenly sensed the surging, fiery energy emanating from Li Liang, clearly indicating his extremely high level of physical cultivation.

He was also a monk.

However, Li Liang's martial arts cultivation was clearly superior to his spiritual cultivation.

Upon hearing the word "Yuan Jie," Li Liang's expression turned serious. He said, "At most three days. If you're in a hurry, two days is fine too."

"Then three days it is, thank you senior."

"Just call me by my name. Your cultivation level is above mine. If we were outside the school, I would have to address you as 'senior'."

Li Chunfeng was not arrogant. "Senior is joking. Senior's martial arts cultivation has already reached the point of blood refinement, so why would you need to call me senior? However, the terms 'senior' and 'junior' are indeed too formal, so I will humbly call you Brother Li."

"So good."

He then took out various materials, saying, "I have prepared extra materials. Here are Black Demon Iron and God-Slaying Sand. Brother Li can keep the rest as he sees fit."

"it is good."

The two became friends.

Li Chunfeng thanked his teacher again and took his leave.

Upon returning to the island, the soul fusion synthesis of the Fish-Dragon Grass was arranged.

It took exactly three days to process this batch of fish and dragon grass.

Taiyi: Demon Spirit, Dragon Fish

[Cultivation Level]: Demon General Level 7 (Fourth Tier)
[Bloodline]: Celestial Azure Dragon, Profound Rank (28%) → Earth Rank (73%)

【talent】:
I. Nine Transformations of Fish and Dragon (Upper Earth Rank → Upper Heaven Rank)
Characteristics: Bloodline inheritance, body-refining techniques. Current realm: Fifth transformation of the Fish-Dragon realm. Maximum ninth transformation, with the potential to transform into a horned dragon and soar through the heavens.

The previous Earth-rank "Nine Transformations of Fish and Dragon" inheritance only granted the possibility of transforming into a dragon.

Now, those with a superior Heavenly Rank inheritance can transform into horned dragons.

The evolution from jiaolong to jiaolong represents a significant advancement.

Although the Jiaolong (蛟龙) has the form of a dragon, it does not have dragon claws and can stir up storms, but in essence it cannot escape the category of "fish in the pond".

Humans do not harbor much fear of dragons. Furthermore, dragons are often described as ferocious and are known as "evil dragons." Powerful cultivators and martial artists can still harm or even kill dragons, and drinking their blood can greatly enhance a martial artist's cultivation. In ancient times, there were many legends of heroes who slew dragons, and these legends often involved dragons.

However, after a thousand years of cultivation, the dragon will transform into a true dragon after passing the Heavenly Tribulation of Dragon Transformation.

Furthermore, based on their strength and bloodline before transformation, dragons are divided into many types, each with different abilities. At this moment, the dragon is still in its growth stage.

After cultivating for five hundred years, dragons will naturally evolve into horned dragons, which are already mature forms of dragons.

Therefore, the horned dragon must be a true dragon.

The horned dragon was powerful and could be considered the mature form of a dragon.

However, there is a significant difference in strength between the horned dinosaurs.

Some ancient myths and legends tell of the descendants of dragons, such as the Azure Dragon King of the East, the Crimson Dragon King of the South, the White Dragon King of the West, and the Black Dragon King of the North. These dragons are all horned dragons, with the five-clawed golden dragon being the strongest among them.

"It is expected to transform into a horned dragon," which undoubtedly means it is a true dragon.

Once transformed into a horned dragon, one can ride the clouds and mist, control thunder and lightning, summon clouds and rain, and command wind and waves. With boundless power and great supernatural abilities, one is not much different from the true dragons of ancient times.

The value of Tianjie's "Nine Transformations of Fish and Dragon" is immeasurable.

……

II. The Longevity Scripture of Green Wood → The Longevity Scripture of Wood (Upper Grade Earth Rank)
The first level, the "Green Wood Longevity Method," involves seeking out spiritual trees and plants from all realms, absorbing their essence and boundless vitality to temper the body. It has the effect of prolonging life.

The second level, the "Mountain and River Vein Method," draws upon the boundless vitality of mountains and rivers to replenish oneself, thus promoting longevity.

This lineage of the Taoist arts undergoes a significant change after reaching the Earth Rank.

It became the "Yi Wood Longevity Classic".

Li Chunfeng astutely discovered that this inheritance did not seem to be like the "Nine Transformations of the Fish and Dragon," which could only be understood by those with true dragon bloodlines.

He immediately merged with Taiyi, immersed himself in the mind, and wholeheartedly comprehended this bloodline inheritance technique.

Perception pierced through layers of mist, finally settling on the rune that resembled a sapling.

In a daze, he seemed to transform into a towering tree.

This giant tree was incredibly domineering. At first, it merely squeezed out the resources of the surrounding forests, absorbing the essence of other trees to grow. Later, it began to draw upon the boundless vitality of the mountains and the earth's veins to enhance itself.

Later on, the tree grew taller and taller, becoming a towering giant that could support the sky. At this point, it was already absorbing the essence of the sun and moon.

In the end, the stars of the heavens surrounded the tree, transforming it into a tree even larger than the stars, using the power of the stars to nurture the tree and its spirit.

To live as long as the heavens, to be immortal.

The terrifying aspect of this method is that it requires no special qualifications. As long as one follows the steps of cultivation, from the first level of the Green Wood Longevity Method to the second level of the Mountain and River Meridian Method, one can extend their lifespan by at least several thousand years. Many Pure Yang Daoists cannot live that long.

"This is the method of body refinement by gods and demons."

If we include the inherited methods that have not yet been obtained, the third level of the Sun and Moon Five Wheels Method, and even the fourth level of the Celestial Circulation Method.

With enough resources, one could outlive even a celestial being and live as long as the heavens!

However, this method is destined to be ignored by cultivators who are already facing the Abyss Tribulation.

The broken jade disc trembled.

A new derivation entry has appeared in the [Derivation Method] section – "The Scripture of the Longevity of Yi Wood".

Once deduced, it can be transformed into a divine and demonic body-refining method that can be practiced by humans.

Li Chunfeng, of course, did not activate [Derivation Technique].

After all, the "Yi Mu Chang Sheng Jing" is not yet complete.

Even if it were the complete method, he might not switch to cultivating it.

After all, a person's energy is limited, and he already possesses the "Star Soul Bone," which is a top-grade Heaven-rank inheritance.

He is one with his natal demon pet, so if Taiyi cultivates diligently, the effect will be the same.

However, if one encounters someone whose lifespan is nearing its end, the value of this method will be greatly enhanced.

……

3. Size as desired (Top-grade Earth Rank)

IV. Azure Thunder Sword → Azure Thunder Dragon Claw (High-grade Earth Rank)
5. Azure Scale Armor → Azure Dragon Armor (High-grade Earth Rank)
VI. Dragons lurk in the abyss, thunder lies hidden in the marsh (Upper Earth Rank)
VII. Soaring through the clouds and mist → Sending clouds and rain (Superior Earth Rank)
8. Stirring up trouble → Overturning rivers and seas (High-grade Earth Rank)
9. Yi Wood Rejuvenates → Yi Wood Revives (Superior Grade Earth Rank)
10. Dragon's Roar Shatters the Heavens → Dragon Soul (High-Grade Earth Rank)

The enhancement of his bloodline greatly improved Taiyi's strength.

As a descendant of the true dragon, Taiyi's cultivation and advancement are different from those of Mosquito Daoist and Burning Lamp.

The higher the concentration of the true dragon bloodline, the faster his cultivation speed will be, but everything depends on his own cultivation.

The assistance it provides in soul fusion synthesis is minimal.

"Thank you, sir!"

Taiyi transformed into human form and excitedly bowed to Li Chunfeng.

It seems that his studies during this period have benefited him greatly.

Li Chunfeng smiled and said, "We are one, our fates are intertwined, there's no need for formalities. But your cultivation will ultimately depend on yourself, so remember to cultivate diligently in the future."

"Yes, sir, I want to go outside and find a big shot to play with."

Li Chunfeng knew he was going to show off. He mostly adopted a laissez-faire approach to disciplining Taiyi and didn't impose too many restrictions. "Go ahead, remember to be polite to everyone you meet and don't interfere with their cultivation."

"I will."

Upon receiving permission, Taiyi cheered and leaped into the air, transforming into a streak of azure light that soared through the clouds.

Li Chunfeng went to the Weapon Forging Academy again and retrieved the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe from Li Liang.

Li Liang's eyes were bloodshot, and his anger hadn't subsided, clearly indicating that he had been working on the casting process.

"Thank you for your hard work during this time, Brother Li."

The overall appearance of the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe remained largely unchanged, but a faint consciousness emerged within it, which excited Li Chunfeng.

This consciousness, identical to its own demonic embryo, is slowly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nourish itself.

After thanking them, they paid the remaining balance.

A hint of reluctance flashed in Li Liang's eyes as he watched Li Chunfeng carry away the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe.

"Modern methods are superior in their scientific nature, but the ancient methods of weapon forging should not be underestimated. In particular, this method of weapon forging is actually a forging method that is compatible with his cultivation technique, which is truly rare."

After returning, Li Chunfeng briefly experienced the third-tier Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe.

Its power has indeed increased significantly.

Unfortunately, he could never return to the Chaotic Ancient World. The inheritance of the Chaotic Ancient Demon Axe could only stop at the third tier.

In the following days, Li Chunfeng cultivated step by step, occasionally following Shen Que to the Sword Tower to practice swordsmanship, then going to the Array Dao Academy for classes, or running around among the various academies and mountains to listen to all kinds of courses that he felt were useful for cultivation.

The rest of the time was spent studying how to make good use of the Demon Wing Clan Demon General's Demon Core and the Evil Eye Tyrant's Soul Crystal.

Especially the Demon Commander's Demon Core.

That shocking demonic fist covered in black light, the 'Shaking Black Light' crowd control skill, was so powerful that I still remember it vividly.

This method is undoubtedly of the Earthly rank.

However, the higher the rank, the more difficult it is to refine, because it requires a strong physique to support it.

With Li Chunfeng's current strength at the Refining Organs Realm, the probability of failure in refining is as high as 90%.

The Evil Eye Tyrant Soul Crystal was naturally reserved for Burning Lamp's use.

The various spells within the Soul Crystal, such as 'Evil Spirit Domain', 'Soul Field', 'Soul Storm', 'Mind Control', 'Fear Explosion', 'Soul Destroyer', 'Super Regeneration', and 'Mind Teleportation', are all extremely tempting.

But Li Chunfeng was not in a hurry.

After thorough examination, he had learned that the seed of magic within the Evil Eye Tyrant Soul Crystal did not contain any Earth-rank material.

The strength of the Burning Lamp has increased extremely rapidly, even the Xuan-level Dharma Seed cannot keep up with its pace.

Fortunately, the Evil Eye Clan is not a solitary group.

He will still have the opportunity to search for other evil eyes in the Ghost Realm in the future.

On this day, the Mosquito Taoist finally awoke.

The fourth evolution has finally been completed.

In order to achieve this evolution, she absorbed a lot of powerful special bloodlines, especially the Xuan Yue Clan's time talent favored by Li Chunfeng.

Unfortunately, it never appeared in the evolutionary branch.

With the completion of this major evolution, the three spells on the first branch of the talent evolution tree also automatically leveled up by one.

The three new branches that appeared on the second branch are 'Blood Demon Curse', 'Blood Moon Mist', and 'Mind Capture'.

All of them are the abilities of the Blood Demon.

Li Chunfeng ultimately chose the 'Mind Control' spell.

[Blood Feast Evolution: (High-grade Mystic Rank: 4/15)]

Traits: Blood Origin, Evolutionary Furnace (0/300).

[Spells]: Undying Vajra Defense (Level 1 Passive → Level 2 Passive), Shadow Flash (Spirit Rank High → Yellow Rank Low), Shadow Escape (Yellow Rank High → Profound Rank Low), Mind Control (Profound Rank Middle).

Final preparations complete.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

Li Chunfeng began to relax and inquire about the recent situation of his friends.

Take the initiative to inquire about the lives of Zhou Siye, Hu Yifei, Chen Lingsu, Huang Tianhe, and others at their respective schools.

Besides that, one should embrace simplicity and authenticity every day, maintaining a state of emptiness and tranquility; cultivating one's mind and character, being carefree and at ease, and finding contentment in simplicity.

Until this day, while he was meditating on Fish Dragon Island, his abyssal energy suddenly erupted.

Li Chunfeng calmly stood up, called Taiyi, Randeng, and Wendaoren back to their soul apertures, sent a message to Shen Que and Lu Yun'er respectively, and then disappeared from Yulong Island.

Welcome to the Abyss!

[You are currently undergoing your fifth tribulation, at the first level of the Abyss. After ten tribulations, you will automatically descend into the Abyss!]

[Location of Tribulation: Killing Realm]

[This Tribulation Mode: A Tribute to the Evil God]

[Background: All living beings from the heavens have been captured by the Abyss and placed in Abyss Cities. The inhabitants of these cities will be teleported to a secret realm of slaughter, where they will carve to please Him. A journey of life and death is about to begin.]

[Main Quest: The longer you survive, the more kills you make, and the richer the rewards.]

[Mission Duration: Seven Days]

Li Chunfeng's expression remained unchanged, but he was inwardly astonished. "The fifth Abyss Tribulation is actually going to be this kind of killing mode."

Although he knew that there was more than one Abyss City in the Abyss, he couldn't help but feel nervous about having to fight against the geniuses of other Abyss Cities so early.

"Perhaps this is the bitter fruit of four consecutive godlike performances."

Just then, a magnificent voice suddenly resounded in my mind.

"Killing Realm Rule One: Ten-Person Order".

"Hidden throughout the secret realm are contract tokens that allow for alliances. Find one, and you can form an alliance with another."

"Rules of the Killing Realm, Part Two: Killing and Plundering".

"In the secret realm, each enemy killed will grant an additional layer of Killing Intent. Attacking enemies with Killing Intent can ignore most defenses and directly damage their souls. Each additional enemy killed has a chance to plunder some of their abilities, such as luck, physique, soul power, and magic seed."

"Rule Three of the Slaughtering Realm: As time goes by, the mist in the central area will gradually spread. The abyssal behemoth will be unleashed!"

Li Chunfeng's usually calm face twitched slightly, and his pupils instinctively contracted.

These three rules can directly eliminate any possibility of anyone "playing it safe".

The creatures that enter this place will become incredibly mad and brutal.

The killing intent can ignore most defenses and directly attack the soul.

This……

Isn't that equivalent to real harm?

Killing others allows one to grow infinitely stronger, possessing unlimited potential for growth.

At the same time, players who perform too well will be targeted by others and eliminated by their own team.

The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

Winner takes all!

This generous gift is one that no one could refuse.

A carnage feast unfolds in the Killing Realm.

Before obtaining the Ten-Man Token, everyone is an enemy. No matter how good the relationship, no one is trustworthy in the Killing Realm.

"I wonder if I know anyone from the Three Realms Abyss City here?"

As Li Chunfeng regained his footing, he found himself standing atop a dilapidated skyscraper.

The architectural style is similar to the technological world of the previous planet, Water Blue.

But upon closer inspection, there are many differences, with countless wildly dancing vines soaring into the sky.

Brown vines and purple slime mingled together, forming the steel pillars of skyscrapers. Monsters exuding an abyssal aura roamed the city.

"Abyssal monster!"

"It seems that those who have come here are not only those destined to face the calamity, but also many abyssal monsters."

A sudden gust of wind arose all around, causing his clothes to flutter loudly.

Looking out from here, one can see a cluster of buildings entwined with vines in a hazy, dreamlike state. In the very center of this city, there is a misty area where towering vines, like sharp swords piercing the clouds, can be vaguely seen reaching towards the sky.

Further away, Li Chunfeng could see the distant mountains and rivers, hidden in a light mist.

This is a city nestled among mountains and rivers, where plants and concrete blend seamlessly, a chillingly quiet abyss-like city. Here, there is no worldly hustle and bustle, and you can't even sense the presence of any living thing.

Yes, there is only the omnipresent abyssal aura.

"Boom~"

Lightning flashed across the sky, and suddenly black rain began to fall in the Killing Realm.

The rainwater carried a pungent odor, making even a slight sniff extremely unpleasant.

For some reason, this black rain gave Li Chunfeng a sense of familiarity.

Just as they were wondering, a colossal creature emerged from the clouds in the center of the city, hidden in the mist.

Its body resembled black smoke, with enormous, transparent tentacles that floated and drifted through the clouds. Occasionally, the massive tentacles would peek out from the clouds, revealing a terrifying glimpse of its monstrous form. The black smoke around it continued to writhe like a ghost, constantly bubbling up, making it appear both eerie and repulsive.

It was none other than the abyssal behemoth, the "Abyssal Devourer," the Nine-Legged Abyssal Shadow Octopus.

This abyss devourer is not the baby octopus we killed earlier.

From the glimpse of the iceberg, one can see that its size is enormous, far beyond that of a first-tier abyssal behemoth.

The third rule states that the fog in the central area will spread, and the giants will be unleashed.

Everything is forcing all living beings to actively participate in the killing.

As Li Chunfeng gazed into the distance, below the building, a lump of mud-like substance remained unharmed, hidden in the black rain. It quickly transformed into a black humanoid shape, glared fiercely at Li Chunfeng on the high-rise, then turned back into mud and rapidly climbed up the building.

Silent and extremely well hidden!
"Jie Jie Jie~"

"The first blood of the Slaughtering Realm will be produced by the evil thoughts of my evil god!"

I need a monthly pass!
