Chapter 452: Energy Circulation System (II)
Lin Zheyu failed again and again. With each failure, the next attempt lasted longer. During this time, he killed eighteen yaos that attacked him. Fortunately, he was still near the edge of the barrier, and the yaos here were weak; many were not even at the Grandmaster realm.Time passed slowly. Amid the howling winds, Lin Zheyu immersed himself fully in studying the golden runes, leaving only a third of his focus to watch his surroundings.
Finally, on the sixty-ninth attempt, it worked! A purple-black glow flickered around Lin Zheyu, spreading to envelop even his Setting Sun saber. The dense demonic qi, under his control, was absorbed by the golden runes the moment it touched his skin.
Then, using his true origin and spiritual sense, he isolated the golden energy in his blood, preventing it from restoring the degrading runes. The principle was simple, but execution was difficult. Only after sixty-eight failures did he succeed.
"Interesting. These runes form an energy system independent of true origin," murmured Lin Zheyu as he stared at the purple-black glow covering his body, astonishment filling his face.
Even he had not expected this result. He had only intended to use the degraded runes to absorb demonic qi and emit a strange purple-black energy to conceal his aura. Instead, the golden runes revealed far more remarkable effects.
A constant stream of demonic qi entered his body, transformed by the purple-black runes into an energy carrying demonic traits. As long as demonic qi flowed in, this energy could be sustained. However, relying only on the surface runes was inefficient. And if too much demonic qi was converted, it would begin to erode his flesh and seep into his blood.
Lin Zheyu felt a surge of excitement and thought, This property of the golden runes must be integrated into the Primordial Golden Body. If I can master it, I might be able to build a second energy system independent of true origin.
This discovery was an unexpected delight. A faint smile curved his lips as he took his first true step into the demon god barrier. Shrouded in purple-black energy, his living aura was completely concealed, replaced by one nearly identical to a yao. With a thought, he walked toward a yao over three hundred meters ahead. The distance closed until he passed right by it without incident.
The yao, over two meters long and covered in jagged spikes, let out a roar. It lowered its head and sniffed Lin Zheyu, then turned and left.
