Reactions from All Sides, Demon Traces Reappear
"I can feel it; the bottleneck is loosening."
In the Central Province, within a powerful sect, a middle-aged man dressed in purple robes stood atop a mountain peak, his eyes slightly closed, carefully sensing the changes in the world following the anomaly.
"But that's not enough. This little change alone is not enough for me to break through."
The middle-aged man in the purple robe opened his eyes and shook his head, but he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.
After all these years, he had been stuck at the Innate Realm Completion, and no matter how he cultivated, his cultivation level could not be improved.
Now that we finally see hope, how can we not be overjoyed?
After the initial joy, the middle-aged man in the purple robe looked in a certain direction, his eyes filled with hatred.
"It is said that the rules in the Four Great Secret Realms are different from those in the outside world, so they are not bound by the Heavenly Laws and can break through to the realm above the Innate Realm level."
This is why the Four Great Secret Realms are so mysterious; anyone who emerges from them can stir up the world and command the awe of all sects.
But now, the world is undergoing a transformation, and the shackles are about to be broken. At that time, the natural advantages of the Four Great Secret Realms will also disappear.
"The Cloud Water Secret Realm —one day, I, Long Tian, will storm into this secret place and crush you all under my feet to avenge the loss of my wife!"
Ji Zhou.
A remote, abandoned village.
A strange man with disheveled hair, an old face, but an unusually strong body was attacking several young Martial Artist who were bound hand and foot in front of him.
Then, upon hearing those nine sounds that resonated with the Heaven and Earth Sound, he was overjoyed.
"Hahahaha... The Heaven and Earth Dao Sound, this world is truly about to revive! I've really waited for it, I've really waited for it! Heaven has not been unkind to me, Heaven has not been unkind to me! I've finally made it to this day!"
In my final reincarnation as the Ten Directions Demon Lord, I was not killed by the ravages of time, and I was granted such a great opportunity.
The world is reviving, spiritual energy is returning, yet the Immortal Dao immortality is still extinct in this world. This is my greatest opportunity, my greatest opportunity ever!
The strange man roared wildly to the sky, appearing completely insane. Several young Martial Artist standing nearby trembled and shook, wondering what kind of madness this demon was going through this time.
But the next moment, the strange person suddenly looked at them.
"With the revival of heaven and earth imminent, I must restore my cultivation to the Innate Realm as soon as possible and truly master the Blood Refinement Demonic Art Entry Level. Only then will I have enough resources to compete for those opportunities."
"Ah! Senior, spare me! Spare me!"
Several young Martial Artist screamed in terror when they saw the strange man's blood-red eyes.
But all of this was in vain. The strange man completely ignored their cries and grabbed one of the girls by the head.
The demonic power was activated, and streams of blood energy were drawn out and absorbed into the body.
The girl, on the other hand, was in great pain and aged rapidly at a visible pace.
Not long after, when the strange man released his hand, the girl's body collapsed to the side, her face withered and her life gradually fading away.
"Eldest Brother, save me..."
The girl murmured something before her breath finally faded away.
"Junior Sister!!!"
This terrifying scene terrified the other young Martial Artist, who screamed even more frantically in their fear.
But no matter how much they struggle, their fate is sealed.
As the strange man's palm continued to fall, one Martial Artist after another was quickly drained of their life force and died.
As the last young man's life force was drained and he lay dying, boundless regret welled up in his heart.
I knew it long ago, and I should have listened to my master's teachings and stayed in the sect these days.
However, he was overconfident in his strength and thought that with the sword formation of him and his Senior Brother, they could easily kill this demon and restore the sect's prestige.
Who would have thought that this demon would be so terrifying, breaking their sword formation in just a few moves and then abducting them to this place to kill them with evil magic.
"Junior Brother, junior Senior Brother, I'm so sorry..."
The young man murmured to himself, filled with endless regret, and breathed his last.
The strange man listened to the young man's words without any change in expression.
He had heard similar words countless times.
Throughout his long life, he had done things that were far more cruel than this.
Crushing a few small insects was nothing to him; it couldn't possibly stir any emotion in him.
He sat cross-legged, circulated his internal energy for a while, and absorbed the essence and blood he had obtained. However, the strange man frowned.
"These few good-for-nothings have such poor aptitude that they can't even improve my physical constitution by a single point."
It seems that ordinary Martial Artist are no longer of any use to me; only those once-in-a-century cultivation geniuses can continue to improve the aptitude of my body.
"Yun'er, Yun'er! Where are you?"
Just as the strange man was pondering, an anxious shout interrupted his train of thought.
The newcomer's voice was powerful and carried for miles, clearly indicating that he was a master of the Innate Realm.
Without hesitation, the strange man immediately concealed his aura, used his movement technique, and left silently.
Even now, he still finds it very difficult to deal with martial arts masters at the Innate Realm level.
He hasn't mastered the Blood Refining Technique yet, so he'd be at a disadvantage if he faced the enemy head-on.
"Hmph! Once I've mastered my demonic arts and broken through to the next level, I'll definitely capture a few Innate Realm to feast on and satisfy my cravings!"
Forced to leave by the Innate Realm, the strange man's heart was filled with resentment.
"Ah! You demon! I, Li Jiansheng, swear that no matter where you go, I will surely kill you with my sword!"
Just ten breaths after the strange man left, an extremely mournful roar echoed from the abandoned village.
The strange man, who had already fled far away, merely showed a hint of disdain upon hearing this roar.
"More and more Innate Realm are being sent out by various sects and aristocratic families. Those talented Martial Artist are also hiding in their sects and not coming out. This Ji Zhou is no longer a suitable place to stay. It's time to change places, but where should we go?"
Putting what had just happened out of his mind, the strange man continued to ponder.
"If I want to continue to improve my physical constitution, I must continue to absorb the blood and marrow of young genius Martial Artist and seize their foundation for my own use."
The young Martial Artist in Ji Zhou have been terrified of me and will not be traveling outside for some time, but other states are not in such a state of panic.
I heard that in the neighboring Cang Province, a true martial arts Martial Artist emerged two years ago. At only seventeen years old, he was already ranked among the top on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
There are even rumors that he might be the legendary Child of Destiny.
The more the strange person thinks, the brighter the light in their eyes becomes.
"As heaven and earth revive and spiritual energy reappears, many chosen ones born with Destiny Fortune will also emerge in response to this great change in the world."
If I could seize the foundations of these peerless geniuses, I would surely be able to forge an unparalleled innate talent!
With this as a foundation, we can lay the strongest magical foundation. In the future, becoming a demon ancestor will be a piece of cake! That kid from Cang Province, I think his name is Lu Qing, right?
My first sustenance on my path to ultimate power will begin with you!
