Immortal Devil Transformation

This world’s cultivators could only understand power up to the Sacred Expert level.

Even though many people had witnessed the strength of Purgatory Mountain Patriarch and Ni Henian in front of Thousand Leaf Pass, not even Purgatory Mountain Patriarch could use all of the power within his body. That was why the cultivators of this age already couldn’t understand the power of Sacred Masters at all.

In that battle within Central Continent City, Zhang Ping still mostly relied on that armor and his extremely powerful physical body. But after this spring, he already didn’t need that armor to sweep through Yunqin Empire’s north.

His and Lin Xi’s strength already transcended the understanding of the cultivators of this world. That was why no one knew just what level his strength actually reached. Even Gu Xinyin, Nangong Weiyang and Lin Xi couldn’t be certain who was stronger between the two.

After all, the cultivation world of this age had not experienced a battle between those of higher level than that past Purgatory Mountain Patriarch.

Unless they actually fought, no one knew who traveled further down this path beyond the Sacred Master level. No one knew the difference in power between them.

…

A certain cave in Great Desolate Swamp’s depths always released strong medicinal fragrance. Various crystal vessels that were different from those of other cultivation lands slowly took in and released mist. A bit of vapor was released from the vessels. An Keyi’s face was faintly discernible within the mist, completely focused on what she was doing.

Inside of the crystal test tube in front of her, a type of eternally unchanging black color slowly divided, changing into an even darker black and a bright-colored red.

The two colors separated in the flask. They divided into countless strands under the swaying of her hands, not mixing together, turning into countless intertwined black and red silk threads.

Gu Xinyin looked at this somewhat demonic mix of colors, quietly asking An Keyi who already stopped. “So?”

An Keyi had a pensive expression on her face. When she heard Gu Xinyin’s voice, a bit of an embarrassed but excited expression appeared on her face.

“Your way of thinking and direction were indeed correct. My initial thoughts and direction were mistaken after all.” She still spoke with a bookish tone, but it was a bit rushed. “Even the cultivators of the Immortal Devil Age couldn’t concoct anything that could neutralize Devil Transformation. I am simply wasting my time in trying to do this.”

Gu Xinyin smiled and said seriously, “It isn’t that it is absolutely impossible, but rather that the probability is too small. After all, it is just like what Lin Xi said. A difference in age and a difference in civilizations might very well make a difference. Our research of cultivation methods might be inferior to that past cultivation era, but that might not be the case in terms of research in medicines. In the past few decades after Principal Zhang entered our Green Luan Academy, our research on medicinal theory has exceeded that of several hundred years in the past.”

An Keyi also entered a deep state of thought.

Gu Xinyin couldn’t help but cough. “And?”

Only then did An Keyi say, “That is why I changed the direction of my efforts according to your thoughts. I thought that if there is no way to dissolve Devil Transformation, would it be possible to instead confine the medicinal strength in a certain area, or even isolate it.”

Gu Xinyin was stunned. “Just like clearing away an area of an oilseed flower field and using it to plant some rice crops?”

An Keyi thought about Gu Xinyin’s analogy, and then she nodded. “Roughly this type of meaning. With Lin Xi’s cultivation, it should be useful.”

“Then you already concocted this type of medicine?” Gu Xinyin took a deep breath. The smile on his face already completely disappeared. He looked at An Keyi and that black and red medicine bottle, seriously asking this.

An Keyi looked at him and nodded.

Gu Xinyin was stunned for a long time. Then, he exhaled. He looked at An Keyi and said with a laugh, “Principal Zhang and Vice Principal Xia weren’t mistaken in investing in you after all. You really are a genius.”

An Keyi felt like she wasn’t worthy of this type of lavel, feeling a bit embarrassed and lowering her head. With a quiet reading voice, she said, “The key lies in the starting point. Devil Transformation, for Lin Xi’s current cultivation, is the greatest filth. Why would you think of coexistence instead of destruction?”

“After returning from Tangcang, I’ve thought through many things. After that trip through Frozen God Domain, I obtained many more insights. Frozen God Domain has a type of white fiend beast who has great strength and great numbers. When they see cultivators, they will immediately want to kill. In the eyes of any cultivators, this type of sword like fiend beast who doesn’t even have eyes is definitely extremely ugly. However, in the recordings Principal Zhang left for us, he said that these creatures were actually quite adorable. Indeed, ugly and beautiful, in the end, is just a difference of viewpoint,” Gu Xinyin looked at An Keyi and slowly said.

An Keyi could understand this. She nodded. “It is just like how there are many things in the Great Desolate Swamp that are actually quite lovely.”

“If Lin Xi can make use of the medicine that you have prepared, isolate a pure area in his body, he might be able to force the Devil Transformation medicine to some places. With your medicine’s effects, the medicinal force can only separate, it cannot be neutralized. That means that the effects of Devil Transformation will instead be even stronger in other parts of his body. What will happen to him then?” Gu Xinyin smiled, but he couldn’t help but say quietly with a sigh of admiration, “Half devil half immortal? Or an immortal devil body?”

…

While Gu Xinyin and An Keyi were enveloped within thick medicinal fragrance, Zhang Ping who was pampered in a workshop that wasn’t any inferior to an imperial palace was also surrounded in a wave of faint fragrance.

The fragrance came from the jade bottle in front of him.

Inside of this jade bottle was the medicinal liquid prepared from Devil Eye Flowers. Because of the high density, the medicinal liquid itself even had a bit of a glass like luster.

Thousand Devil Nest produced a lot of Devil Eye Flowers. In the past, this container of medicinal liquid would take who knew how many thousands of jin of Devil Eye Flowers, yet Zhang Ping still had many bottles. He didn’t treat this type of medicinal liquid with any importance.

But it was different now.

This bottle was already opened, the fragrance continuously wafting out. However, Zhang Ping didn’t take out the medicinal liquid like before. Instead, he just coldly looked at it, his body not moving at all.

He didn’t bother thinking about how Lin Xi knew about the connection between the Devil Eye Flowers and himself, because before all of Green Luan Academy’s people were all killed by him, there were countless possibilities.

He also knew that this was a blow Lin Xi dealt him. However, he felt like he didn’t need to use this type of medicinal liquid at all. This way, Lin Xi’s actions would be completely useless and laughable.

Since his eyes became more and more cold, they instead seemed like two deep passages. Meanwhile, there was a mysterious restlessness and itchiness that surged within his body with greater and greater strength.

He couldn’t understand why he had this type of feeling.

After Central Continent City’s great battle, under normal circumstances, he would have collapsed from his mental and physical fatigue. However, he couldn’t remain weak or tired, or else he would have definitely been defeated under Green Luan Academy’s retaliation. That was why he borrowed the medicinal strength of the Devil Eye Flowers to boost his mind and stimulate his body’s potential.

After he swept through Yunqin’s north, he already made it through the most difficult period. He was already certain that he didn’t need the medicinal strength of Devil Eye Flowers.

But even though his body didn’t need it, he felt like he needed it. As he deliberately controlled this urge and decided that he wouldn’t use this medicinal liquid anymore, inside his body, within the depths of his bone marrow… or perhaps it wasn’t in his bone marrow at all, there was a powerful and continuous numbness and itchiness being released. This feeling made his entire body extremely uncomfortable, it even made him become weak. It was as if a weak world was opened up within him that wanted to completely devour his body.

After a long time passed, his hand reached out. The instant his fingertip touched the opened jade bottle, he couldn’t help but tremble.

His cold and emotional eyes also produced ripples. His body seemed to be releasing a strong bloodiness.

He could not remain calm and indifferent anymore.

Anger surged within him.

He discovered that he couldn’t free himself from being devoured by this type of extreme discomfort.

He needed this type of medicinal liquid. He wanted to greedily suck in this medicinal liquid. This meant that Lin Xi’s actions indeed affected him. At the very least, this Devil Eye Flower method, even though he knew what Lin Xi wanted to do, he still couldn’t control himself.

The scene of Lin Xi burning down the Devil Eye Flowers appeared in his mind. Anger surged within him, yet he knew that he couldn’t get angry.

Several drops of medicinal liquid flew out from the bottle and entered his slightly opened lips. He swallowed these drops of liquid and then he took a deep breath. He put this jade bottle away and slowly got up.

He calmed himself down.

“We are heading to Turtle Edge Mountain.”

Several red robed Divine Adjudicators appeared in front of him. Then, he gave this order.

He already knew that there was a great connection between Turtle Edge Mountain, the Cave Barbarians and Green Luan Academy, but he had to stabilize Central Continent City and destroy Green Luan Academy first. He had to calm the local and border armies. Also, time was on his side… the longer he waited, the more stable Yunqin Empire would become under the Imperial Princess’ rule, the more favorable it would be for him.

But he couldn’t wait anymore.

He couldn’t stop Lin Xi from destroying some places that were important to him, so he had to try to destroy some places that were important for Lin Xi, he had to make Lin Xi weaker.

The most crucial thing was that he already didn’t want to wait anymore.

He wanted to force Lin Xi to stand in front of himself.

He still couldn’t contact Purgatory Mountain. That was why when those red robed Divine Adjudicators withdrew, he thought expressionlessly, “You can destroy my Purgatory Mountain… but I can also destroy your Turtle Edge Mountain. I can choose not to head to Purgatory Mountain, but you definitely won’t let me kill all the Cave Barbarians, right?”

…

Zhang Ping thought coldly. He walked behind his own throne.

Behind his soul weapon throne was an extremely large, black metal trunk.

Inside of this trunk wriggled countless black worms, all of them tangled together.

He directly stepped into this trunk.

His body swelled, starting to produce a great suction force. Many pores on his body opened up. These black bugs were sucked into his skin just like that, squirming into his body.
