Steady Mortal Path: Starting from Obtaining the Golden Core Inheritance

For a while.

Lin Changsheng's aura rose steadily until it was no weaker than that of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.

The free-floating blood and qi condensed and transformed into an incredibly lifelike blood-red ancient ape. An aura of dominance emanated from the ancient ape, and within a radius of several hundred feet, the blood and qi were filled with extremely violent power.

'Roar! '

Even though Lin Changsheng himself did not make any movement, the lifelike blood-red ancient ape seemed to let out a thunderous roar, causing the water stains below, which had not yet completely dissipated, to ripple in layers due to the vibration.

The blood-red ancient ape stared at the young sea creature with its cold, indifferent eyes, a look that sent chills down one's spine.

Lin Changsheng's imposing figure, carrying immense momentum, flew towards the latter, his every move exuding astonishing power.

At the same time, as he approached his opponent, a flash of light appeared in Lin Changsheng's hand, and a simple, black nine-toothed rake appeared. Enveloped in the power of his blood and qi, he swept it towards the sea tribe youth!

"This is... a body-refining technique imitating the demon race?"

"I never expected that Jiao Li's willful act of sneaking into the heart of the human realm for fun would result in her encountering such a talented human cultivator."

Lan Shenwei was moved by what he saw. As a fourth-order demon king of the sea race, he naturally had some knowledge and knew that this was a phenomenon that could only be revealed when one cultivated the body-refining technique to a high level.

He dared not be careless about this.

The moment he realized that the man was at the fourth level of body refinement, he already regarded this human man as an opponent of the same level.

‘Wow! ’

Lan Shenwei's aura of azure demonic power surged, and as the hand seals in his hands changed continuously, his human characteristics gradually faded, and he began to show more aquatic features.

Its skin is a deep blue color, gradually revealing a layer of fine scales. It has sharp ears, fins growing from its elbows, and a strong, fresh, fishy smell permeates the air.

Around it, thick, azure demonic energy continuously transformed into flowing water, instantly forming a vast lake in the desert.

‘Crash! ’

The surface of the lake surged, and a semi-transparent shark, formed from the lake water and tens of meters long, leaped up, exuding a terrifying aura. Its powerful body twisted and turned, and it actually left the lake, soaring into the air and heading towards the blood-red ancient ape that Lin Changsheng had conjured!

A translucent shark, resembling a mountain, with sharp, pointed teeth that exude a powerful aura, clearly possessing an aggressive, water-attribute magical ability.

'Click! '

The abyss-like maw clamped down on the blood-red ancient ape's thick arm. The fourth-tier blood energy clashed with the sea creature's divine power, creating a massive and surging battle wave.

The next moment, Lin Changsheng's nine-toothed rake, imbued with the power of blood and qi, landed heavily on the translucent shark.

'boom! ’

A strike from a fourth-tier body refinement cultivator, combined with the power of the Nine-Toothed Rake itself, is no weaker than the attack methods of an ordinary early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Under the influence of the surging energy of blood and qi, the demonic power within the giant shark dissipated, making it difficult to maintain its transformed form. It then transformed back into its watery form and fell into the lake.

At this moment, the sea creature youth on the other side remained expressionless, but the azure light in his hand grew stronger, and the several balls of demonic power condensed at his fingertips were almost tangible.

Immediately afterwards, he flicked his finger towards the water, and five balls of demonic power condensed and were thrown into the water one by one.

Then the water surface seemed to boil, bursting with immense demonic power.

This powerful demonic aura even surpassed that of the Nightmare Moth, greatly increasing the pressure on Lin Changsheng, who couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

Even in the desert, this young sea creature can use his own methods to alter the terrain to some extent and exert the strength of a normal early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Such a powerful sea creature, if it were in the ocean or in a body of water like the Nine Swamps Continent, which would be conducive to its strength, might be able to rival a human cultivator at the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage.

Just as Lin Changsheng was secretly alarmed, towering waves surged in the lake below, and five powerful demonic auras emerged from the water in succession.

Five enormous sharks, each a size larger and fifty or sixty feet in diameter, leaped up from below and surrounded Lin Changsheng.

From a distance, it looks more like a giant, blood-red ancient ape surrounded by five even larger sharks, which occasionally lunge to bite it.

The ancient ape, enraged, channeled its vital energy to fight the five sharks, but it was no match for them. Its vital energy was rapidly depleted, and its form gradually became dim and blurry.

Meanwhile, under Lin Changsheng's constant drain, the five azure giant sharks gradually lost their luster.

'boom! ’

During the fierce battle, Lin Changsheng wielded his nine-toothed rake, seized an opportunity, and defeated one of the giant sharks head-on. However, the other giant shark held onto the rake tightly and refused to let go.

Lin Changsheng exerted his strength again, increasing the power of his blood and qi in his hands, but was knocked away by two giant sharks behind him, and his Nine-Toothed Rake slipped from his grasp.

He seized the opportunity to prepare for another attack, like an enraged ancient ape, tearing apart a giant shark once more.

However, he himself was also damaged by the enormous impact, resulting in damage to his fourth-order physical body and a weak aura.

After catching his breath, Lin Changsheng extended countless fine wooden vines from his sleeves, which, like tentacles, once again took the nine-toothed rake into his hand.

At the same time, he slightly opened his mouth, and wisps of bloody aura wafted out, gathering in front of his chest and condensing into a blood seal that exuded terrifying power.

Under Lin Changsheng's constant urging, the 'Blood God Seal' became increasingly solid and vibrant in color, and its power continued to increase.

At this moment, Lan Shenwei felt his blood and qi surging, and his breathing became slightly difficult, as if he were locked by that small blood seal. The demonic infant within his body also felt a faint sense of unease.

'Om! '

A magical trident, shimmering with light and radiating a chilling aura, appeared before Lan Shenwei.

On this 'trident' magic weapon, one can vaguely see shimmering light, as if it were rippling water.

The moment the magical artifact appeared, a water-attribute aura permeated the surroundings, seemingly extremely compatible with water, yet also carrying an extremely strong pressure.

"go with!"

Lin Changsheng finished charging up his power, and the Blood God Seal flew out in front of him. It seemed to be moving slowly, but it left a trail of bloody afterimages. Wherever it went, even the space seemed to be compressed and fluctuated.

On the other side, the sea tribe youth's 'trident' magic weapon emitted a soft sound, carrying a continuous and sharp momentum, as if piercing through the sky, and thrust towards Lin Changsheng.

Two extremely powerful and fierce auras were about to collide. Both Lan Shenwei and Lin Changsheng were fully focused, and their internal magic power erupted to form a protective shield to protect themselves.

At that moment, a dark yellow streak of light flashed by.

The Nightmare Moth Demon appeared above the two, and with the flapping of its ghostly wings, a wave of mental energy surged out, pouring towards the direction of the sea race youth!

In that instant, Lan Shenwei felt a sharp pain in his sea of ​​consciousness, his body, which was suspended in the air, began to sway, and the circulation of demonic power within his body became sluggish.

"A fourth-tier demon!"

Faced with the sudden appearance of a fourth-tier demon enemy, Lan Shenwei was startled and couldn't help but be shocked.

Before agreeing to escort Jiao Li to Beicang, he had already learned about the high-level human cultivators in the area.

There are only three humans who have reached the Nascent Soul stage.

Moreover, these three human Nascent Soul cultivators are in competition with each other, and belong to three different forces, so there is no possibility of them joining forces.

As long as you don't encounter both of them at the same time, even if your own strength is limited, there is no need to worry about safety.

But now, having just stepped into the border of Beicang, they have encountered a human with a rare fourth-order body refinement realm, as well as a fourth-order demon who ambushed them!

Faced with the combined forces of the two, and with his own strength limited, Lan Shenwei felt the pressure of fighting two against one!
