Chapter 453: Dharma Form? (I)
The thick liquid, rich with demonic qi, flowed slowly yet produced a loud, sloshing sound. Gale winds howled all around, carrying dense demonic qi and stirring waves of demonic tides through the formations. Lin Zheyu was enveloped in a purple-black energy barrier, giving off an eerie aura like a demonic puppet.With a soft sound, the Setting Sun saber shot forward. A yao living in the demonic river was effortlessly split in two.
Black splashes burst up from the formations as Lin Zheyu moved at great speed, his long saber striking again and again.
After a short while, the surface of the demonic river was covered with countless fragments of yao flesh, swept downstream by the current. Even after the danger in the river was resolved, Lin Zheyu did not fully relax. He pushed his Perception Domain to its limit, spreading it outward to carefully scan for any hidden threats.
Only after confirming there was no danger did he let out a slight sigh of relief. He took out an ordinary storage pouch from his robes. It was the lowest grade, with only a single cubic meter of space. Lin Zheyu carried many such pouches, using them to store items that were not important but took up space.
After checking the contents and confirming everything was in order, Lin Zheyu slowly reached his left hand inside. A cool, smooth, viscous sensation met his touch. The pouch contained special herbs, all ground into powder and soaked in water. The sheer quantity made the liquid thick and sticky. These were materials required for cultivating the Ninefold True Demon Body. Such a powerful demon art could not be cultivated with demonic qi alone. It also required large amounts of precious herbs.
Once everything was prepared, he sent out a thought.
Use 3 units of Origin Force to cultivate the Ninefold True Demon Body.
Lin Zheyu's spirit wavered and entered the space of consciousness. The vast white void shifted the moment he appeared, transforming into the environment required for cultivating the Ninefold True Demon Body. A massive formation was inscribed on the ground. Even his entire body was covered in dense, mysterious runes, etched with medicinal liquid refined from special herbs.
This was another function of the consciousness space. Here, with a single thought, a massive and perfect formation could appear without him needing to inscribe it himself. The prerequisite was that all materials required for formation had to be prepared in advance. The storage pouch he took out earlier contained not only the necessary herbs but also all the materials needed to construct the formation.
In the dark void, Lin Zheyu stood within the demonic river. Vast mysterious energy surged from his body, sweeping up the river's energy and pouring it into himself. In an instant, the purple-black glow around him vanished, replaced by a burst of golden light. Yet just as quickly, the gold faded back into purple, then shifted again into gold.
Like a revolving lantern, the light on the runes shifted rapidly under the effects of demonic qi, mysterious energy, and the golden energy in his blood. At the same time, his flesh, tendons, and bones underwent strange transformations. The Ninefold True Demon Body was, in essence, a physique forged through nine transformations, comparable to that of yaos.
