Patrol Captain

The Niwan Palace is shrouded in rolling clouds.

The Great Demon Huodou was firmly trapped by the countless crimson-gold divine chains that flew out from the sea of ​​clouds.

The chains, red and gold in color, are formed from the essence of flowers and vital energy. They are extremely yang and are specifically designed to subdue demons.

The crimson flames on the Great Demon's body were suppressed, and it let out an unwilling roar, using various transformations to try to break free of the chains.

Sometimes its body would swell and then shrink rapidly; sometimes it would have three heads and six arms, a giant demon shaking the heavens and pounding the chains, causing the divine chains to vibrate and the sound of crashing echoing through the sea of ​​clouds. Then it would transform into a ball of pitch-black demonic energy, ignite with a bang, and then explode. Streams of fire tried to emerge from the gaps, but they were all bounced back by the returning wind and fire.

It was all in vain!
Even with his physical body intact, he couldn't defeat him. Now that his primordial spirit is trapped, what waves can he possibly stir up?
Chen Yuan's primordial spirit manifested, watching the demon's death throes and deafening roars. He had no interest in watching the show; in his eyes, this guy was just a major ingredient about to be put into the furnace.

If you think about it that way, he's wasted quite a few good things before, and it hurts to even think about it.

With these thoughts in mind, Chen Yuan opened his third eye between his brows, closed his other eyes, and sat cross-legged above the sea of ​​clouds.

Behind it, inside the Thirty-Six Mountains Demon-Suppressing Tower, a huge, ancient and mysterious token vibrated, making the tower shake with a hum, resonating with the air and emitting a loud, resonant sound.

Then, from the top of the tower, a beam of light shot into the sky, and an object flew up to Chen Yuan's head in a flash.

It's that Mountain-Moving Tiger Talisman!
The secret to his success today.

The black token swirled with a hazy, ancient light, possessing no special aura. Hanging above Chen Yuan's head, it allowed him to feel completely clear and his mind to become lucid.

The White Bone Refining Divine Technique—a forbidden method passed down by the Undying King—can refine the primordial spirit of others into a divine source, like a divine elixir, replenishing and tempering the soul. Once the primordial spirit completes nine cycles, it can return to its innate state.

We have the materials, and the cultivation accelerator, which is essentially luck points, should be enough. Add to that the cultivation method...

The White Bone Refining Divine Technique!
There's nothing profound about its name; it's simple and straightforward.

However, it is a forbidden method for directly refining a person's primordial spirit!

Everything is ready.

Chen Yuan began to practice the Dharma, silently reciting the scriptures.

"In the beginning there was Qi, which transformed into bones. Yin and Yang complemented each other, and the remains returned to the earth."

As he silently chanted, a sinister aura emanated from him.

In an instant, inside the Niwan Palace, the "sky" gradually darkened, a cold wind howled, as if a vengeful ghost had awakened, and the sea of ​​clouds surged.

Immediately afterwards, white characters floated out from Chen Yuan's primordial spirit, each character flickering with white phosphorescent flames, contrasting with Chen Yuan's golden primordial spirit and exuding an eerie and mysterious aura.

"When Kan and Li interact, the soul is refined into Qi, the spirit is hidden in the body, and Qi circulates throughout the body."

As the incantation continued to be chanted, one after another, white fire characters appeared, densely packed. Inside the Niwan Palace, the howling of the yin wind grew louder and louder, like the screams of ten thousand ghosts, capable of tearing a person's soul apart.

The white sea of ​​clouds rolled and churned, as black as ink, surging and enveloping Chen Yuan and the Great Demonic Spirit.

Skull-like ghost faces made of black mist bulged out from within, as if trying to break free from the underworld and devour the primordial spirits of Chen Yuan and the Great Demon Huodou.

This is a forbidden method, and naturally there are risks involved. If it is not handled properly, it is tantamount to setting oneself on fire.

"buzz"

At that moment, a tremor tore apart the sea of ​​clouds.

Behind Chen Yuan, the Thirty-Six Mountain Demon-Suppressing Tower shone with a brilliant blue-gold light. It suddenly trembled and surged, tearing through the dark clouds, and then crashed down into the sky above Chen Yuan, like a divine tower descending to earth.

The Demon-Suppressing Tower rotates within, its divine light blazing. The countless demonic reliefs on it seem to come alive, roaring and roaming out, opening their mouths to fight and tear at the countless grotesque ghost faces that emerge from the sea of ​​clouds.

This tower was conceived in the Niwan point (a point on the body's core) and used to suppress the primordial spirit. The demon reliefs on the tower depict endless battles between demons and evil spirits.

But the great demon of the Huodou clan was completely different.

Amidst the howling wind, those ghostly faces, seemingly crawling out of the netherworld, emitted piercing screams that shattered the very soul, lunging towards the Great Demon Huodou, who was firmly bound by divine chains.

At first, the demon still had a stubborn will to resist, roaring in shock and anger, using its primordial spirit powers to tear apart layer after layer of ghost faces, and constantly cursing Chen Yuan.

But these things are densely packed and endless; no matter how you kill them, you can't kill them all.

As time passed, the demon's supernatural powers waned, and one by one, ghostly faces tore at its primordial spirit, gradually increasing in number until finally enveloping the demon entirely.

Ten thousand ghosts devour souls!

The demon's previous angry roar turned into terror, followed by an extremely shrill howl.

"Ah ah ah."

"kill me!"

"kill me!"

"."

Unmoved by the desperate screams, Chen Yuan continued to activate the technique.

"The Qi returns to the Yuanhai, the soul enters the Huangting, the white bones become the cauldron, and all evil essences are refined!"

As the sound of metal shattering stone rang out, Chen Yuan raised his hand and waved it. The small white flame characters surrounding his body flew towards the Great Demon Primordial Spirit opposite him, which was being devoured by ten thousand ghosts, and wrapped around its body.

At this moment, Chen Yuan made a hand seal, and the small white fire characters began to rotate, accompanied by the sound of metal tinkling. Each character jumped and swelled, emitting a metallic hum.

When the time was almost up, Chen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, changed his hand gestures, and clasped his hands together in front of his chest.

"when"

A resounding, booming sound rang out.

The large white characters were connected by rays of light, which condensed in the air to form a huge phantom image of a three-legged alchemy furnace.

Then, blazing white flames rose up in the cauldron.

At this moment, the great demon of the Huodou clan had no power to resist. With a whoosh, the divine chains were lowered and stuffed into the alchemy furnace, where the raging bone fire enveloped the great demon's primordial spirit.

The demon roared in agony and venom within the alchemy furnace, accompanied by the crackling sounds of firecrackers. Later, the demon's voice gradually faded away, and a bubbling sound similar to boiling elixir could be heard from within, along with a strange fragrance.

The fragrance was intoxicating, refreshing and intoxicating, making one unable to resist greedily inhaling it.

Chen Yuan's eyes twitched slightly, but he made no move.

The time is not right. If we open the furnace at this point, all our previous efforts will be in vain.

After an unknown amount of time, as the fragrance inside the cauldron grew stronger and stronger until it emitted a seven-colored light, Chen Yuan's eyes gleamed.

With a change of hand seals, he lifted the lid of the cauldron.

With a loud "boom," the rosy light broke through the cold wind, displaying a dazzling array of colors.

Inside the cauldron, a drop of pure, crystal-clear divine liquid, radiating a hazy glow, slowly rose into the air.

With a flick of his wrist, Chen Yuan summoned the divine liquid, which hovered in front of him. It was only the size of a fingernail, yet it carried a powerful life force.

Just one breath of that fragrance made me feel my primordial spirit shimmer with golden light, and I felt a slight sense of progress. Although it was not obvious, I could still perceive it.

"It really works!"

Chen Yuan thought to himself, feeling reassured. But he didn't rush to refine it, after all, it had only just begun.

Thinking about it, Chen Yuan's eyes flickered, and he slightly raised his head to look at the Demon Suppression Tower above him that was suppressing him.

At this moment, in the Demon Suppression Tower, on the fifth and sixth floors, layers of golden chains stretched across the skylights.

One after another, the great demons and monsters were impaled by the golden chains, their souls pierced and trapped, like lambs to the slaughter.

Besides the demonic spirits, four great demons, and more than a dozen great demons that Chen Yuan hunted down here, there was also a person who had been punished inside, and a demon.

One of them is Musashi from the Li family of the capital;
That human-demon was some kind of guy from the Holy Land;
Both of these guys caused trouble in Qingshan County and crossed the line, which made Chen Yuan hold a grudge against them.

Now, they are nothing but ants, unable to live or die, and Chen Yuan has almost forgotten about them.

At this moment, these creatures, through the portals in the tower, saw Chen Yuan refine a great demon into a powerful medicine. The pitiful howls sent chills down their spines, and they began to struggle hysterically.

"Damn it, he's actually going to turn us into a living elixir!"

"Chen Yuan, you are the real demon!"

"He hunted us to break through the borders."

A series of frantic roars and curses erupted as these men rioted, the clanking of chains even shaking the entire tower.

Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows. He was not angry at these curses; on the contrary, he enjoyed them and let them die in fear.

He raised his hand and slammed it down, suppressing the Demon-Suppressing Tower. Then, with a wave of his hand, another door on the sixth floor opened.

This time, however, the demons inside didn't escape; instead, they hid inside.

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow, and the chains inside began to turn, quickly pulling out the other great demon.

Then continue with the process described above.

Refine, refine, refine.
Cursing, screaming, wailing.
Just as Chen Yuan was continuously refining divine sources using the White Bone Refining Divine Method, a great change was taking place deep within the black giant mountain.

The entire mountain was shaking, its black surface appearing wounded, bleeding crimson blood and cracking open with shocking blood-red fissures.

"Kuala Lala"

Large chunks of rock loosened as the cracks spread, plunging from top to bottom into the abyss. Bronze coffins followed, and the slid-down mountainside plunged into darkness. The entire giant mountain seemed to teeter on the brink of collapse amidst this terrifying commotion.

On the mountainside atop the black behemoth, figures leaped and darted among the falling rocks, cries of alarm rising everywhere. Some were unlucky enough to be struck by falling rocks, letting out a miserable scream as they plunged into the abyss in the vast darkness, their voices fading into the distance.

"Run!"

"The entire mountain seems to be collapsing."

"In the end what happened?"

"."

Deep within the black mountain lies a terrifying and chilling scene.

There were countless skeletons stretching as far as the eye could see, numbering in the millions.

These skeletons include ancient dead soldiers in armor, wearing several tattered pieces of armor; tall, ferocious, and strangely shaped demon skeletons; and powerful undead creatures that can fly and burrow underground, their bodies covered in rotting flesh and blood.

If the army of skeletons, densely packed and overwhelming, surged into the depths of the black giant mountain like a tidal wave!

It was a horrific sight!

Above this torrent of white bones, on the mountain, in some hidden places, pairs of pupils of different colors and even different sizes watched this scene and couldn't help but gasp.

"So many bones, my God!"

What happened here before?

"Do not reveal your aura. You must not be discovered, or even we dragons and tigers will be torn to pieces."

Where did these dead creatures go?

"It's as if something is calling them over."

"I heard a terrifying roar coming from deep in the mountains. That must be a terrifying being comparable to a martial saint in the human world!"

"."

From the corner of the black mountain of sawdust, there were whispers, some urgent, some suppressed.

The shadowy figures carefully concealed themselves, sensing the chilling atmosphere and daring not to make any rash moves. At the same time, their hearts were filled with turmoil as they tried to guess what had happened here.

However, among them are some ancient monsters who are rarely seen, using unpredictable supernatural powers to follow the tide of bones into the depths of the Black Mountain to seek the truth.

However, not long after, a major upheaval occurred there.

A terrifying roar erupted, accompanied by violent fluctuations.

Soon after, two streaks of light, one gold and one black, shot out from the depths of the black mountain.

There were two figures inside, one in front of the other, moving extremely fast.

An angry shout came from the figure ahead.

"Huangfu Liuyun, you old codger, how dare you betray me! Do you know what terrible consequences will occur once this seal is broken and heaven and earth are connected? Isn't your Huangfu family afraid of being punished?"

"Haha, Helian Shan, you old codger, you're full of righteousness and morality. This seal was already loose, what does it have to do with me? Besides, I don't have many years left to live anyway. Now that I have a chance to break through the void and ascend, how could I not seize it? As for what happens next, I can't care."

The speaker was the Bodhi Martial Saint from the Huangfu family, who had lived for an unknown amount of time. He was a legendary old monster who, in order to prolong his life, even ventured alone into the Demon Kingdom and went to the Western Pure Land to obtain a Bodhi tree. His supernatural powers were unfathomable.

The one being pursued was Helian Shan, the Grand Preceptor of the Great Qian Dynasty.

"Fine, fine, fine, you old scoundrel, if you're going to do this, then we're all done playing." Helian Shan laughed in anger, his body radiating golden light and his speed increasing dramatically. Then, he raised his hands, flicked his sleeves, and scattered rays of golden light that shot towards various points on the black mountain.

"boom
"boom"

"boom"

Explosions were heard one after another.

One by one, the figures hiding in the shadows flew out, forced to reveal themselves, their faces grim.

Among them, one by one, unfamiliar faces appeared.

They included creatures covered in scales and armor, long-haired creatures, and creatures that were neither human nor ghost.

All sorts of demons and monsters have been gathered.

“xiao”

As the commotion grew louder, the skeletal army below raised their heads, their eyes flashing with ghostly fire, and then looked up to the sky, letting out sharp howls.

In an instant, an uproar broke out, and the entire mountain roared. Some of those with weaker cultivation were directly shaken, causing blood to flow from their mouths and noses.

Chaos reigned!
Meanwhile, inside Chen Yuan's Niwan Palace.

The last batch of medicine was slowly taking shape, emitting a strange and fragrant aroma.

About half an hour later, the enormous silver-white cauldron hummed, the lid was lifted, and a drop of divine essence, shimmering with a hazy light, flew out. (End of Chapter)
