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

Chapter 78: Six Desires Yin Thunder, Self-Destructing Ghost Bat, Adventure in the Center of the Earth (Seeking monthly votes!)

With a small team of five, they swept away an army of 30,000 demons and ghosts.

Things I never dreamed of actually happened right before my eyes.

Apart from Li Chunfeng, even the four people who started it all, including Feng Yang, felt as if they were in a dream.

Of course, Chi Xuancai was just a background character throughout the entire process.

But she is everyone's guarantee of returning home safely; living well is her greatest contribution.

Li Chunfeng was already used to it and remained calm and composed as he directed his clone, Ran Deng, to quickly gather the spoils of war.

Feng Yang was quite wary of the Nine-Lives Cat Demon, but he finally understood why Li Chunfeng had two high-level demonic pets following him. Such a genius naturally had protectors. Little did he know, Li Chunfeng was merely helping to walk the pets.

"for you."

Seeing that he didn't even let go of a first-tier soul crystal, Feng Yang waved his hand and threw a fourth-tier soul crystal over.

Li Chunfeng glanced at it, then waved his hand to refuse, saying, "No need."

"The spoils of war will be distributed according to merit, and everyone will get a share."

Feng Yang then tossed another soul crystal to Chi Xuancai.

This time, Li Chunfeng didn't stop it; instead, he picked it up and examined it in his palm.

"Do I have one too?" Chi Xuancai was a little surprised and was about to refuse, but seeing that Li Chunfeng had accepted the Soul Crystal, she felt it was inappropriate to return it.

This is a golden skull spirit bone, which Li Chunfeng doesn't really need.

He approached Xu Changliu and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, may I take a look at your soul crystal?"

Xu Changliu laughed, "What, is the evil spirit's soul crystal useful to you?"

He had previously had many doubts about Li Chunfeng, but he kept them to himself and never spoke them aloud. Now, however, he has become Li Chunfeng's most steadfast supporter.

He casually tossed the soul crystal to Li Chunfeng, saying, "Here you go."

"No need, how about we switch?"

"can."

"Thank you."

Li Chunfeng was indeed more interested in the soul crystal, because he had just watched their battle. Although the evil spirit was completely suppressed by Xu Changliu's magic weapon, the Demon-Revealing Mirror, it was not without the power to fight back.

In particular, its use of thunder-like techniques on several occasions was truly astonishing, almost allowing it to turn the tide of battle.

Unfortunately, the extreme yang power within the demon-revealing mirror was far too strong in suppressing it.

It wasn't easy for Xu Changliu to defeat this fourth-tier evil spirit. He even used his trump card, the Five Elements Starry Sky Sword Formation, to barely win, which is enough to prove how extraordinary this evil spirit was.

[Evil Soul Crystal: Fourth Rank, Contains the Dharma Seed: Six Desires Yin Thunder (Low-Grade Profound)!]

"Six Desires Yin Thunder?"

Li Chunfeng muttered to himself.

Xu Changliu said, "That's right, it is the Six Desires Yin Lightning. The Six Desires Yin Lightning appears quite frequently among high-level ghosts and monsters. It is an extremely insidious spell. There was once a cultivator who practiced demonic arts who tried to refine this spell into a one-time-use magic weapon, but ultimately failed."

"Why?"

Li Chunfeng was puzzled, "I see that the power of this thunder is quite remarkable."

"Because the refining process is too difficult, each Six Desires Yin Thunder requires the resentment and souls of hundreds of living beings to be used in the darkest and most poisonous places to absorb the evil and poisonous energy and nourish it for several years. Then, it is combined with the first Yin and Yang thunder in the world at the beginning of spring. Only when they are harmonized can they be condensed into a pill."

"This malevolent Six Desires Yin Lightning is not yet fully mastered. The power of a high-grade Six Desires Yin Lightning is extremely great. Once it is unleashed, it will immediately explode, blasting out thousands of red smoke and hundreds of demonic shadows. It can also corrupt a cultivator's magic weapon, rendering it ineffective, corrupting the divine soul and thoughts within, and even tracing back to its source to harm the cultivator's very divine soul."

"I am only able to resist the Six Desires Yin Thunder because of the power of the Demon-Revealing Mirror. If it were a different magic weapon, I would probably be struck by the soul poison of the Yin Thunder and fall to the ground with a crash, and I would never be able to control it again."

Li Chunfeng seemed to be deep in thought.

The laws of the Celestial Court in the Earthly Realm are strict. If one were to sacrifice hundreds or thousands of people for the purpose of refining a technique, it would obviously be impossible to succeed in the Earthly Realm.

The Earthly Realm does not prohibit the cultivation of demonic techniques, but that does not mean that any demonic cultivator dares to disregard the laws of the Celestial Court.

While most demonic cultivation methods allow for rapid progress, they are invariably linked to methods of devouring and seizing foundations, and harming others for personal gain. With the laws of the Celestial Court in place, the demonic path simply cannot truly flourish.

He thanked him again.

By this time, the battlefield had been mostly cleaned up. Su Bai said, "The battle here was quite large-scale. To avoid alerting the demons and ghosts in other areas, let's quickly go underground."

"good."

……

The group continued to traverse the Forest of Decaying Trees, engaging in numerous battles along the way, but they found it increasingly difficult to mount an effective resistance.

As they were moving forward, a huge crevice suddenly appeared deep in the dense forest ahead, as if splitting the entire forest in two. The crevice was pitch black and bottomless, and occasionally ghost bats with shimmering fluorescence flew in the darkness, as if the depths of the crevice were a ghost bat nest.

"We've arrived. This is the entrance to the underground abyss world."

"The crevice is steep, but I happen to have a flying artifact that can give everyone a ride."

Xu Changliu took out a small flying boat, about the size of a palm. "This is the masterpiece of one of my senior brothers. It can carry ten people and can fly through the sky, split the earth, and enter the sea. It's just that it's not very comfortable to sit in."

Su Bai laughed and said, "Brother Xu, it's wonderful that you have this flying boat. I was just wondering how to get off."

Xu Changliu's decision to bring out the flying boat at this moment was clearly for the sake of his teammates. Feng Yang, being a martial artist, even with his superior movement techniques, couldn't possibly land there. Li Chunfeng, with the White Cloud Demon Spirit by his side, was relatively safe. The other, Chi Xuancai, clearly didn't have a wood-based escape technique suitable for this environment. This team was of good quality, and no one said anything like, "Why didn't you bring out such a magical treasure sooner?"

Everyone in the team has a specific role and performs their duties, which is great.

Xu Changliu tossed the flying boat into the air, and the palm-sized toy grew larger and larger in the wind, eventually becoming a narrow, five-meter-long awning boat.

As Li Chunfeng and his group stepped inside, they indeed felt uncomfortable, especially those who were tall.

Xu Changliu activated the restriction array on the magic weapon, forming an invisible restriction barrier outside the awning boat, separating it from the darkness.

They maneuvered the flying boat, turned it around, and shot downwards like an arrow.

The space beneath the fissure continued to expand, and countless ghost bats flew up from within, sweeping in like a swarm of locusts.

“These ghost bats…”

Li Chunfeng's heart stirred. With so many ghost bats, he wondered if any of them possessed any enticing talents.

Although his second soul aperture has not yet been opened, it does not prevent him from looking for a suitable target in advance.

The flying boat's restrictions were directed outwards, not inwards. With a swift movement of the 'Void Handprint,' it snatched a ghost bat in its hand. Upon closer inspection, these ghost bats were the size of a fan, with sharp teeth and claws, and scarlet eyes, exuding a vicious, bloodthirsty, and insane aura.

Everyone who saw what he was doing assumed he was just curious.

'Cunning'!
[Ghost Bat: Ghost type, Level 1 Levitation. Talent: Self-Destruct! It's enraged...]

"Ok?"

Li Chunfeng clenched his fist, and the Ghost Bat exploded in his palm like a burning gasoline bottle, with considerable force.

Floating means not belonging to the mainstream or not being included in the hierarchy.

This creature, as weak as a lantern ghost, has quite a temper.

But how can he possibly use this talent of 'self-destruction' that he's so quick to throw away, sacrificing himself for others?
Unfortunately, we had to give up.

"Bang bang bang~"

As the airship flew faster and faster, it inevitably crashed into these suicide bats. One after another, the bats crashed into the airship and exploded, but they could not shake the airship's protective barrier.

The airship was very fast, rushing downwards, and the ghost bats fell like raindrops, killing countless of them.

I don't know how long we flew, "Whoosh!"

The sound of wind came.

Suddenly, the space below disappeared, and all the ghost bats vanished.

It was completely dark all around, not a single ray of light could be seen, as if one had fallen into a black hole. No one spoke in the cabin; an invisible, oppressive atmosphere began to permeate the space.

Those with weaker willpower might go insane if they stayed in such darkness for too long.

Li Chunfeng felt right at home here; the Black Lotus Undying Soul's innate ability was working at full speed, and the divine soul power he had previously consumed was rapidly recovering.

"Unexpectedly, this underground world has become my blessed land for cultivation. The rich spiritual energy of this dark world is comparable to that of the Dark Abyss Ruins on the third level."

Continuing downwards, the light reappeared shortly afterward.

The group first saw a huge cave, and then they saw the entrance to a huge mountain.

Looking out over this mountainside, it seemed to stretch endlessly, like an underground world, with plains, rivers, and even more mountains and valleys below...

The world of the deepest abyss has arrived.

Although it's called the underground world, it's not dark and gloomy.

Overhead, numerous bioluminescent plants grew, and many small, fluorescent animals roamed about. Large flocks of fluorescent birds danced about like fireflies. Even the clouds above the underground world glowed, like dazzling ribbons of light, a truly beautiful sight.

This is completely different from what people imagine the underground to be.

Chi Xuancai couldn't help but take out the memory bead to record this moment.

Li Chunfeng thought for a moment, then took out a recording bead and started recording.

"This is the deep underground world... It's so vast, where should we begin our exploration?" Xu Changliu asked.

"Brother Xu, please wait a moment."

But then Su Bai took out a specially made compass, and after the magnetic spoon on it shook wildly a few times, it firmly pointed in one direction.

"This is an item that the Spirit Array Sect gave me before the mission. If there is any important place in this world, it must be in that direction. Everyone be careful, the underground world is overrun by demons, and there are quite a few Asuras, demons, and Yakshas."

Yakshas are also a type of demon, powerful and famous.

The third realm of the demons is named the 'Yaksha Realm,' which is enough to prove the power of the Yaksha clan.

The airship started up again, and the five-person team set foot on this dark land deep underground. The deeper they went, the more similar it became to the surface, with fertile black soil everywhere, as well as many streams and tall plants.

Li Chunfeng felt as if he had read "Journey to the Center of the Earth" in a past life.

These tall plants are mostly giant, glowing mushrooms.

The twinkling, colorful lights illuminated all directions, providing light sources everywhere. Even though the light was not as bright as the outside world, martial artists who had reached a certain level of martial arts cultivation could still have the ability to see at night with just this light source.

The cultivator's senses were sharp, and even this small amount of light was enough to scan the entire area.
