Chapter 613 - 309: The Wound of the Great Dao! The Path of Celestial Demon Nurturing_2
The surging blood continuously flows along the inner walls of the thick blood vessels, rushing like a torrent, swiftly roaring through the body’s meridians.
This Blood Qi not only nourishes the dried veins but also, after rapid circulation, fills the flesh, overflowing through the vessel walls, moisturizing the limbs and various organs.
Under the vast support of Soul Power, after circulating through the body, the Blood Qi gathers once again in the heart, becoming thicker, carrying certain Power of Origin from the Ninth Grade Golden Core.
These Origin Energies, under the guidance of the Soul Power, flow towards some severely injured Daoist Injury areas.
These Origin Energies are of extremely high quality, sourced from the Ninth Grade Golden Core, and those Daoist Injuries are like rootless water or groundless floating wood, repeatedly cleansed, layer by layer, until completely purified.
Naturally, during this process, Zheng Yi’s body gradually heals, and his previously weak aura begins to improve step by step.
...
This injury was somewhat too severe, costing two months for Zheng Yi to recover from the serious wounds.
The rest depends on time to mend.
At this moment, his blood roars like a raging river, resonating with the sound of rushing water, and even a slight movement of his powerful body brings an oppressive impact to the air.
Accompanied by Zheng Yi opening his eyes, his two gleaming eyes, like sharp swords, pierce the void.
He slowly stands up, moving the body that hadn’t moved for two months, immediately producing a crisp sound echoing in the air, similar to the sound produced by someone wielding a whip, hitting the air.
Hoo!
Zheng Yi opens his mouth and exhales, transforming into a Qi Sword, soaring skyward, slicing through space, and shooting into the distant sea surface.
Boom!
The vast skyline is split in two, shaking once again.
Zheng Yi feels his feet sinking, deeply embedded into the rock beneath him, and the surrounding void seems unable to withstand this force, collapsing directly, forming a huge depression centered at his body.
With a motion, Zheng Yi instantly vanishes in place, reappearing with his feet now on the vast, boundless sea surface.
The seawater beneath his feet surges violently; a slight exertion with his soles creates a half-inch depression, similar to an earthquake occurring at the seabed, causing towering waves to soar, reaching heights of over a hundred meters.
Water flowers tossed high up shimmer with colorful glimmers under the sunlight.
"I suppose this can be considered as fortune within misfortune?!"
Zheng Yi senses the aura within his body, saying.
"Indeed, extreme exploitation is the most direct path to breakthrough in cultivation!"
Unexpectedly to him, after this arduous battle, despite sustaining heavy injuries, upon sorting out the whole body, the Magical Power condensed from the Ninth Grade Golden Core advanced a step, not only slightly breaking through the Divine-Demon Body Refining Technique but also bursting with Qi and blood, breaking the bottleneck of his own level directly, stepping into the Middle Stage of Core Formation.
Of course, this elevation in realm, although slightly augmenting his combat power, wasn’t significantly influential.
This is because Zheng Yi differs greatly from traditional cultivators, possessing the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree, Heaven-Cutting Vine, and Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber, alongside the Divine-Demon Body Refining Technique. With such rare depths gathered upon Zheng Yi, he carries a foundation far exceeding ordinary cultivators.
This is indeed the foundational creation of the Ninth Grade Golden Core.
Therefore, for Zheng Yi, the realm of the Golden Core Stage is a smooth journey, far less significant than viewed by others.
After all, compared to the realm, the combat power he holds far surpasses the height that his realm should achieve, taking strides in advancement.
...
Stay steady!
Mysteriously, Zheng Yi’s heart conjures this phrase, reminding himself to be more cautious and careful in the future.
If he had steadied himself earlier, he wouldn’t have been caught by surprise with a long-range strike from the Sea-covering Demon Monarch, nearly being severely injured.
If not that, he wouldn’t have been immersed in a bitter fight with the Nine Dragon Sea Patrol Array.
At this moment, he appears to have recovered, his strength increased a bit, but it still isn’t a time for freedom.
Cultivation, like rowing upstream, not advancing means retreating.
Once holding the Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber, Zheng Yi’s strikes were always fierce, sweeping through, utterly devastating all islands under the Flood Dragon Demon Court’s command.
This was what landed him on the Flood Dragon Imperial Court’s inevitable death list.
This direct, open approach led to retaliation from the Sea-covering Demon Monarch.
Of course, Zheng Yi is well aware.
With his Ninth Grade Golden Core foundation.
In the present scenario where the Archipelago Cultivation Realm and the Deep Sea Flood Dragon Imperial Court are as enemies, irreconcilable.
He was long placed on their must-kill list.
That’s why Zheng Yi acts without reservation.
Otherwise, if they didn’t provoke him.
Zheng Yi would rather stay far away from this conflict.
For he is truly a Great Dao cultivator, single-mindedly seeking the Dao, seeking immortality.
He really does not care about the conflicts and wars between human cultivators of the Archipelago Cultivation Realm and the Flood Dragon Imperial Court.
Yet, living in this world, there are always reasons one isn’t able to refrain from taking action.
Even cultivators are no exception.
However, facing the scenario earlier where the Sea-covering Demon Monarch struck him seriously injured, Zheng Yi has come to his senses, realizing it absolutely isn’t a time to act recklessly.
Of course, this doesn’t mean things are over.
This grudge, he’s noted down.
The Great Dao struggle.
Paired with life’s duration rather than mere days.
Gazing into the endless sea horizon, Zheng Yi’s eyes were profound, and after a moment, he took a deep breath, calming his heart like still water, serene and unperturbed.
Entering deep Dao essence.
...
"Seems like it’s about to start changing again?!"
Zheng Yi slightly narrows his brow, as two beams of blood light suddenly burst forth from the Celestial Demon Relic, swirling once in front of the sky, emitting a "buzz!" trembling sound!
The air immediately vibrates, stirring rippling waves.
The blood light settles in mid-air, revealing its true form, two crescent moon blood blades resembling blood moons, rising slowly, dyeing the vast ocean red all around.
Even the air carries a strong scent of blood.
An intensely fierce sensation, like facing a prehistoric beast, rises from the heart.
After devouring countless Sea Giant Beasts, this Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber has evolved to a certain extent.
Especially during subsequent battles against Flood Dragons, this Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber swallowed whole the bodies and Dragon Souls of two Flood Dragons, one of which was such as Jiao Changqing, an existence at the Peak of Core Formation among Flood Dragons; the Demon Dao Divine Soldier’s imbued Dragon Power and Dragon Soul directly surfeited the Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber.
Originally some complex and ancient Celestial Demon Runes faintly visible on its surface now densely packed become flowing lines. However, the Celestial Demon Runes resemble earthworms and tadpoles, like living creatures, constantly twisting, making them unclear and incomprehensible.
On the edge of these runes, tiny almost invisible red lines move incessantly across the blade, akin to blood worms, creating a gut-wrenching feeling.
Inside the Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber, a grander, weird, mystical aura is nurturing, as though something horrific is being cultivated within the blade.
This aura, like a rebirth from the cocoon, seems eager to shake off the entanglement and shackles of old energies and burst forth with a more vigorous new vitality.
How to say?!
It’s akin to those evolutionary variants.
This Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber appears to be the initial form, and what’s being nurtured within, should belong to the enhanced second form after devouring numerous life forms and Flood Dragon Souls alongside the Origin Energies from the bloodline.
Despite Zheng Yi being the Master of Forging, he cannot entirely grasp its true form and the crux of its evolution.
This gestating power seemingly isn’t entirely mature yet, needing substantial amounts of essence Origin Energy replenishment.
Yet, those capable of replenishing its Energy Origin are demanding; ordinary life forms hold no appeal to the Demon Dao Divine Soldier, the Celestial Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber.
It is only those powerful, bloodline-exceptional top-tier beings that can be assimilated.
Coincidentally, currently, Zheng Yi holds such beings in possession, namely the Dragon body and Dragon Soul of the Flood Dragon.
