Recruit demons to become heroes, hunt demons to become gods

Chapter 205: Cultivation Transformed into Combat Power

As the saying goes, what goes up must come down!

Feng Qinniang's snake group prospered due to her promotion, but the Xiangliu tribe on Fufeng Island declined due to the exhaustion of the lifespan of the four Xiangliu at the peak of the sixth level.

This is also because although the four Xiangliu are called Xiangliu, they actually only have one-third of the bloodline of the divine beast Xiangliu, which makes it difficult for them to advance to the seventh level and their lifespans are gradually exhausted.

Fufeng Island is equivalent to the area of ​​three Demon Snake Beauty Islands. Not only is the Xiangliu tribe entrenched here, but also the Pengdiao monster group, the natural enemy of the snake monster.

However, as their natural enemy, the Peng Diao demon tribe is not as strong as the Xiangliu tribe as a whole, and has always been suppressed by the Xiangliu tribe.

Now that the Xiangliu tribe’s greatest supporter has fallen, the Peng Diao monster will naturally launch the most fierce counterattack.

Otherwise, there is still a sixth-level monster in the Xiangliu tribe, and the three sixth-level wise snakes should not dare to set their sights on Xiangliu's monster body.

Now Yu Fengxian has also come to get involved.

Dou Eqing was carried along the way and dared not speak. He could only listen to Yu Fengxian's brief self-introduction.

He didn't expect that Yu Fengxian would be a figure at the level of the Demon Hunting Sect's ancestor.

After all, she looks like a beautiful woman in her early twenties. As an old boss, she should at least look a little experienced.

However, Yu Fengxian reminded him of the Demon Hunting Sect's Elder Jie Lian, who was also an elder who didn't look like an elder.

He really wanted to ask the other party if it was Elder Jie Lian who sent her to find him, but he didn't find the opportunity to ask.

Because Yu Fengxian quickly brought him to land on a big island.

The area of ​​this island is nearly three times that of the Moshemei Island. It is three thousand miles long from east to west and one thousand nine hundred miles wide from north to south. It is named Changze Island by the outside world.

Changze Island is similar to most of the islands in the Qianlin Swamp. Half of its area is covered by ancient forests, a quarter is stone peaks and mountains, and the remaining quarter is jungle swamps.

The Jungle Swamp is connected to the Qianlin Swamp outside the island by a Qianli Liuqu River.

The name of Nagasawa Island comes from the Liuqu River and the swamp.

Yu Fengxian and Dou Eqing landed at the entrance of a hidden cave.

"You hide here first, and I will take you out of the Thousand Woods Swamp later."

Yu Fengxian gave Dou Eqing a brief explanation and left.

The reason why she left in such a hurry was that when they arrived, the battle between the Pengdiao tribe and the Xiangliu tribe was at its most intense stage. It was the best time to sneak attack the Xiangliu's lair and seize the four sixth-level peak Xiangliu monster bodies.

Moreover, Yu Fengxian discovered that a sixth-level wise snake had sneaked in before her, so she had to hurry over.

Dou Eqing and Yu Fengxian disappeared from the range of his spiritual sense for more than ten minutes, first escaping underground and then entering the Ziwei Immortal Mansion.

In the outside world, Dou Eqing does not feel very safe.

Even though he had experienced a huge scene like the sixth-order thunder tribulation, he still felt insignificant after being carried like a chicken by Yu Fengxian without any resistance.

He sensed a great battle taking place far away on the island, and the battle level had reached the Void Refinement Realm. From afar, he felt that he was so weak that it would be very dangerous for him to be on Fufeng Island.

Only then could he impatiently hide in the Ziwei Immortal Palace to relax.

On the one hand, the outside world made him feel insecure; on the other hand, he had just broken through to the God Transformation Realm and needed to adapt to his current level of cultivation as quickly as possible to improve his combat effectiveness.

He was not mentally prepared for this unexpected breakthrough and needed to calm down.

Dou Eqing broke through to the Spirit Transformation Realm this time. The improvement in his cultivation was secondary, and the surge in his spiritual awareness was even greater than the improvement in his cultivation.

His current spiritual awareness is comparable to that of a cultivator at the peak of the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, and his detection distance has increased from 80,000 meters to 250,000 meters.

Now, he can easily condense his spiritual consciousness into a thin knife, and he can also try to transform his spiritual consciousness into a sword shape.

The reason why spiritual consciousness can increase greatly can be considered a blessing in disguise.

After the "memory possession" of the Demon Lord Kuanhai, his consciousness was like a tempering that had been broken down and then rebuilt.

Dou Eqing's "memory possession" by Kuanhai Demon Lord had both advantages and disadvantages. His spiritual awareness and willpower improved by leaps and bounds, and he also gained the benefits of Kuanhai Demon Lord's massive memory.

The downside is that there is no way to truly inherit Kuanhai's memories.

For example, Dou Eqing could not use the Kuanhai Society's martial arts and magical powers directly without practicing them himself, like he could use the Demon Slave Seal.

One can imagine how many memories left behind by Demon Lord Kuanhai include the unique martial arts he had learned, as well as his famous magical powers that made him a force to be reckoned with in the demon world.

These were originally slowly integrated into Dou Eqing's soul, so he could spend less time and energy on cultivation, and directly improve his combat effectiveness.

Of course, this result is normal. No one can get something for nothing.

He was able to survive thanks to Yu Fengxian who came to rescue him.

If his own consciousness cannot be reunited quickly and he cannot regain control of his body, his soul will be born with a new consciousness under the influence of the memories of the Demon Lord Kuanhai.

At that time, you will really face the dilemma of being possessed by another body.

When Dou Eqing recalled his experiences during this period, he realized that he had been at the gates of hell many times.

"I really want to thank Patriarch Yu for saving my life. It's a pity that I can't help in the battle at the Void Refining level."

He couldn't help but think of Yu Fengxian, knowing that the other party should be competing for the sixth-level opportunity.

Although the Thousand Forest Swamp is not a forbidden area for Void Refinement cultivators like the Gourd Ban, few Void Refinement cultivators come here to take risks.

Dou Eqing was somewhat worried that something might happen to Yu Fengxian on this trip.

"The snake girl transformed into an egg. Otherwise, we could use the snakes to help her seize the opportunity."

He then thought of Feng Qinniang from Yu Fengxian, another of his demon slaves with the strength of the Void Refinement Realm.

Since most of his communication with Feng Qiniang was about dual cultivation, he had no idea about Feng Qiniang's situation.

He only knew that she had finally survived the sixth level thunder tribulation and had now broken through to the sixth level, and that the snake group was very powerful.

At that time, there were five late fifth-order demon snakes in the Thousand Snakes Formation, more than twenty early fifth-order and late fifth-order demon snakes, and more than two hundred fourth-order demon snakes.

Although he could not get help from Feng Qiniang and the snake group, Dou Eqing still planned to prepare for a rainy day in case Yu Fengxian needed his help.

Therefore, he was not in the mood to worry about the relationship between him and Feng Qinnan that would not be resolved in a short time.

If he wanted to be able to help Yu Fengxian at the critical moment, he naturally had to improve his own strength.

Now that he has just broken through the Spirit Transformation Realm and is familiar with his current realm of cultivation, converting his strength into combat power is his main focus.

In the past, Xu Ci was unable to be teleported from Ziwei Immortal Mansion to the outside world. Dou Eqing believed that it was because his spiritual consciousness was too weak. Thinking of his spiritual consciousness now greatly increased, he immediately wanted to try to see if he could teleport Xu Ci away from Ziwei Immortal Mansion.

So he came to where Xu Ci was in seclusion.

"I have broken through to the Spiritual Transformation Realm. Let me see if I can take you away from here."

He stated his purpose directly.

Although Xu Ci saw through his cultivation at a glance, she still used her spiritual sense to probe into Dou Eqing's body and confirmed that he had indeed reached the Spiritual Transformation Realm. Then she sighed curiously:

"How did you cultivate? You achieved a breakthrough in such a short time, and it was a breakthrough to a higher realm."

Xu Ci was shocked by Dou Eqing's cultivation speed, and put aside the matter of leaving Ziwei Immortal Mansion that she had always been concerned about.

In fact, Dou Eqing himself hadn't noticed that not only had his Qi training reached the Spiritual Transformation stage, but his physical cultivation had also greatly improved, reaching the peak of the fourth stage. This improvement in physical cultivation was an unexpected benefit brought about by the thunder tribulation.

Dou Eqing himself didn't notice it, but Xu Ci keenly noticed the changes in his body.

Xu Ci sensed that Dou Eqing's physical body had improved significantly, so she paid special attention to his entire body and made a new discovery: the Fire Dragon Drill.

So, Xu Ci pushed him down without thinking twice and enjoyed Dou Eqing's power.

Even if Dou Eqing broke through to the God Transformation Realm, he could only passively endure the blows at Xu Ci's hands, and had to use a dual cultivation battle to adapt to his newly promoted God Transformation Realm.

The battle between the two of them lasted for half a month in a blink of an eye.

Dou Eqing had the Fire Dragon Diamond, and this time he almost subdued Xu Ci and turned her into his lust slave.

Although he failed to achieve this goal, he became more and more recognized in Xu Ci's eyes.

Naturally, he wanted to conquer Xu Ci completely.

In that way, she could be controlled by Dou Eqing like a puppet, and even making Xu Ci self-destruct would be a piece of cake.

Even though Xu Ci has the combat power of the Void Refining Realm, she still cannot reach the attack power gained by her self-destruction.

Therefore, the self-destruction of a powerful cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm can be considered a powerful weapon in Dou Eqing's hands.

Dou Eqing understood that in the world of cultivation, the more trump cards he had, the better, and the stronger the trump cards, the more secure his safety would be.

Therefore, if he encounters a life-or-death crisis, he can control the demon slaves to self-destruct and attack without hesitation, including demon slaves in the Void Refinement Realm like Xu Ci.

He was mentally prepared to use Xu Ci's self-destruction. He was forced by Xu Ci to practice dual cultivation with him, and he had no complaints about being pushed back.

His attitude unexpectedly won Xu Ci's approval. Although they were fighting against each other, she did not rely on her Void Refining Realm to bully Dou Eqing.

Instead, she regarded herself as a sparring partner for Dou Eqing to improve his dual cultivation skills, as if she expected Dou Eqing to completely conquer her one day.

Of course, Xu Ci did this because she was planted with the Demon Slave Mark.

Since the Demon Slave Mark cannot be escaped, then I will completely become his person, rather than a demon slave tool.

Although hand-to-hand combat cannot be compared with actual combat with swords and guns, it is enough to practice cultivation.

During this half month, Dou Eqing not only coped with Xu Ci's demands, but also gradually adapted to his newly improved cultivation level.

Especially since his Nascent Soul had just transformed into a Soul, he had grown tremendously through spiritual intercourse with Xu Ci's Soul.

Dou Eqing's soul is completely different from that of other cultivators.

A cultivator's primordial spirit is normally transformed from the Nascent Soul and the divine soul. After becoming a spirit, there is no longer a Nascent Soul body.

The formation of Dou Eqing's primordial spirit involved the participation of the spiritual body, thus retaining the primordial infant.

However, Dou Eqing had already cultivated three Nascent Souls. After his Soul was cultivated, his third Nascent Soul body automatically escaped into the Ziwei Immortal Mansion and disappeared.

He only knew that the third Yuanying went to meet the second Yuanying, but he didn't know what happened specifically.

Through intercourse with Xu the female god, Dou Eqing's soul was completely integrated with his spiritual body.

This allowed his spiritual awareness to surge again, and his spiritual awareness cultivation level directly broke through to the middle stage of the God Transformation Realm, which meant that his soul cultivation level had reached the middle stage of the God Transformation Realm.

He only needs to improve his Qi training to directly break through to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

This was the result of his early cultivation of his spiritual body.

Of course, there are gains and losses. Through spiritual communication and cultivation of the soul, Dou Eqing developed some real feelings for Xu Ci.

If his relationship with Xu Ci deepens a little more, he will not be able to bear to use Xu Ci's self-destruction as a means of attack in the future, and the impact of Xu Ci's emotional tribulation on Dou Eqing will also deepen.

But Dou Eqing has not yet seen through this.

After their dual cultivation came to an end, Dou Eqing finally remembered the real reason he wanted to find Xu Ci, and wanted to test whether he could take Xu Ci away from Ziwei Immortal Mansion.

This disappointed him again, and also ruined Xu Ci's good mood. She no longer paid attention to Dou Eqing and went into seclusion again.

Of course, Dou Eqing did not gain nothing.

Although he could not teleport Xu Ci away from Ziwei Immortal Mansion, he could borrow strength from her, that is, borrow strength from Xu Ci across Ziwei Immortal Mansion.

But there is no test subject now, so I don’t know to what extent Dou Eqing’s combat power can be improved by borrowing the force.

He estimated that by leveraging his strength, he could reach the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. After all, his cultivation in all aspects was ahead of most cultivators. In particular, all the meridians in his body had been strengthened due to his cultivation of his spiritual body, and he could fully withstand the immense spiritual power impact of the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Besides, borrowing power from Xuansheng Tianmo at the beginning would have allowed Dou Eqing to display the combat power of the late stage of Huashen.

However, the way Xuansheng Tianmo lent power to Dou Eqing was very mysterious, and it was very easy for Dou Eqing to use it. However, borrowing power from Xu Ci required him to fully control the borrowed spiritual power.

Therefore, Dou Eqing then upgraded his martial arts to the level of Divine Transformation.

His swordsmanship and martial arts are of a very high level and can be upgraded as his cultivation level improves.

Therefore, his "One-Sword Slash" and "Rainbow Piercing the Sun" sword techniques only need to increase the output of spiritual power and strengthen their attack power.

As for "Split the Sky with Force", he needs to continue practicing. After all, he was only able to perform the incomplete "Split the Sky with Force" occasionally before, and he couldn't even be considered a beginner.

The other means of attack, apart from swordsmanship, are spiritual attacks and the flying dragon step with jade rings.

"Split the Sky with Force" is extremely difficult to practice, requiring not only opportunity, enlightenment, but also long periods of repeated training.

Therefore, the direction in which he can improve his strength as much as possible is in his spiritual attack methods and body movements.

As for the means of saving life, it is the minor magical power of earth escape.

Dou Eqing didn't plan to rush into practicing the other minor magical skills on the jade puppet.

If Dou Eqing had not directly separated the earth escape technique from the jade puppet, he would not have been able to learn it so quickly.

Minor magical skills and secret techniques are even more difficult to practice than top-grade earth-level martial arts.

Dou Eqing has now broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, and it is difficult for him to further refine his earth escape technique.

Although he estimated that Yu Fengxian's chance to compete would not end so quickly, accidents could happen at any time, and he did not have much time to concentrate on studying his minor magical powers.

Of course, Dou Eqing would rather Yu Fengxian fight for the opportunity without having to help him out in an emergency.

He thought about it and finally decided to improve his strength through spiritual attack.

On the one hand, whether it is a cultivator or a monster, the spiritual defense is very weak, and the corresponding defensive treasures are also very rare, so attacking with spiritual consciousness can have miraculous effects.

Another thing is that Dou Eqing's spiritual consciousness is concealed, and his spiritual consciousness is much stronger than that of the cultivators of the same level. In addition, his spiritual consciousness attack martial arts are very advanced, and the spiritual consciousness attack can catch the opponent off guard.

However, Dou Eqing didn't know which one to choose between transforming his spiritual consciousness into a knife or a sword.

In the past, he had only roughly condensed his spiritual consciousness into a thin knife to attack his opponents. It was just a casual act at the time, and he had not decided to cultivate spiritual consciousness martial arts with the direction of spiritual consciousness knife skills.

After some hesitation, he simply split his spiritual consciousness into two, and simply condensed a spiritual broadsword and a spiritual long sword.

He would use his spiritual sword to chop off his spiritual sword. If the sword won, he would embark on the path of spiritual sword cultivation. If the spiritual sword was stronger, he would conclude that his spiritual martial arts were suitable for the path of spiritual sword cultivation.
