Pure Yang Refines Demons

As Zhou Shengqing Nascent Formation formed his Nascent Soul, the spiritual energy of most of Giant Wood Ridge began to converge on his location. After condensing and becoming dense, it transformed into drops of clear Spiritual Dew. Under the sunlight, these drops shimmered with Colorful Radiance and gently fell onto the Longevity Wood where he was located.

Each drop was equivalent to the essence of a Spirit Stone, but after falling into the area where Zhou Shengqing was, it was like rain falling into a great river, only causing a slight ripple.

Fu Zongjue carried all the Puppetry books he had brought from Six Armor Mountain to the Divine Wood where Zhou Shengqing was in seclusion, where he both sensed the process of Nascent Formation and guarded it.

After finishing dealing with the voting matters in the town, Chen Mobai also rushed over.

"The process of Nascent Formation can last anywhere from one or two months to two or three years, depending on the cultivator's foundation. I will stay here and guard the sect. I will leave the rest to Junior Brother Chen."

Fu Zongjue was referring to the Nascent Soul Formation Experience left by the Primordial Ancestor. If a cultivator's foundation is weak, the Core Shattering step can be completed quickly, but the Infant Transformation step will fail due to a lack of sufficient vital energy.

However, if the foundation of the Golden Core is too solid, it will fail at the step of breaking the core.

However, in comparison, many cultivators in the Sky River Realm try their best to solidify their foundation.

After all, a weak foundation will inevitably lead to failure, while a deep foundation will always find a way to Core Shattering Nascent Formation.

When a cultivator forms their Nascent Formation Soul, their foundation is largely established during the Core Formation stage. Further growth requires extremely rare and precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Since Zhou Shengqing dared to attempt Nascent Formation, his foundation must be quite good.

However, this is only the method of Nascent Formation in the Sky River Realm. Although the Immortal Sect Nascent Formation process as thoroughly as they have studied Foundation Establishment and Core Formation, their methods are still far more detailed than those here.

Compared to the Core Shattering Nascent Formation in the Sky River Realm, the Nascent Formation in the Immortal Sect is more gradual. They use cultivation techniques and elixirs to slowly dissolve the Golden Core over a long period of time, nurturing and cultivating the nascent soul.

"The Myriad Wood Great Formation has been activated. I hope that during the time when Senior Brother Zhou Nascent Formation, things won't turn out the same as when Junior Nephew Meng Core Formation."

As Chen Mobai spoke, a faint, clear light appeared in the sky above Giant Wood Ridge, transforming into a light shield that spread outwards.

"When the Nascent Formation, the spiritual energy of the entire Giant Wood Ridge will converge here. It is best for the other cultivators of the sect not to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy for cultivation during this period of time, so as to avoid any accidents."

At this moment, Fu Zongjue remembered something recorded in his Nascent Soul Formation Experience and gave it a special instruction.

"Oh, is that so?"

Chen Mobai really didn't know, because no matter which Major Realm they broke through, the Immortal Sect would have independent Cultivation Room and spiritual energy supplies, so there was no need to worry about this problem at all.

As he spoke, he closed his eyes and began to try to refine the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy around him.

Sure enough, he discovered that the spiritual energy that he used to be able to easily absorb and refine into Pure Yang Spiritual Power was now like a slippery fish in water, requiring a great deal of mental effort to control and absorb into his body.

Core Formation Cultivator like him has such difficulty refining the spiritual energy of Giant Wood Ridge, then the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining below him must be even more astounded.

If this were to happen suddenly while in seclusion, there is a high chance of an accident due to the surge of spiritual energy.

Chen Mobai immediately fulfilled his duty as the Sect Leader, taking out the Sky-Connecting Instrument and instructing the Three Halls Twelve Departments to quickly inform the sect disciples in Giant Wood Ridge of this matter.

Fortunately, at this time, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator were all in the Divine Wood Hall voting to elect the Six Kingdoms Guardians, so the message was quickly communicated to the entire sect.

However, there were still a dozen or so unlucky Qi Cultivation Disciple who happened to be meditating at this time. Due to the out-of-control surge of spiritual energy in the void, they were seriously injured and on the verge of death.

Chen Mobai ordered the Alchemy Department to allocate manpower for the rescue, instructing them to spare no expense, and that all the pills and herbs used be recorded in the sect's accounts.

Zeng Woyou found it strange that the Sect Leader would attach so much importance to a mere Qi Cultivation Disciple, and thought that there might be a genius among them that Chen Mobai was paying close attention to.

According to the traditions of the Eastern Wasteland, disciples who are experiencing such bad luck should be eliminated to avoid affecting the sect's fortune in the future.

However, Chen Mobai is now the Sect Leader and Core Formation Ancestor, so Zeng Woyou can only obey his orders.

After writing six names on his ballot, Zeng Woyou was the first to leave the Divine Wood Hall. He summoned most of the physicians from the Alchemy Department to treat the Qi Cultivation Disciple who were seriously injured because Zhou Shengqing 'Nascent Formation Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy and earth.

Whew!

The moment he stepped out of the Divine Wood Hall, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew in.

Zeng Woyou couldn't help but shiver, looked up at the sky, and then his expression changed instantly.

In the distant horizon, a dark yellow cloud, carrying a heavy and eerie aura, seemed to sweep across the clear sky and fly towards this place.

"Hell Official travel, all living beings must retreat!"

A sharp sound rang out in mid-air, and then the dark clouds dispersed slightly, revealing four Faceless Man dressed in red robes and black trousers with pointed hats. They carried a Bright Dark Red Sedan Chair and floated towards the location of Giant Wood Ridge.

Wherever it passed, an extremely eerie and sinister aura spread, as if dyeing half the sky black, like dark clouds pressing down, covering the three towering Longevity Wood.

The Myriad Wood Great Formation was activated instantly! Streams of clear, bright spiritual light appeared, transforming into a huge spherical light shield that protected Giant Wood Ridge.

The eerie ghostly aura descended, constantly rubbing against the azure spiritual light, causing streaks of dark blue lightning to flash in the void, and sparks to fall.

The intruder's cultivation level was unknown, yet it caused the Spirit Vein of Giant Wood Ridge to tremble slightly.

"Disciples, hold fast to the Grand Array!"

Just as the disciples of the Divine Wood Sect were filled with anxiety, a clear Telepathic Message rang out in the air.

Then they saw a handsome young man with a refined appearance and dashing spirit, holding a purple longsword, who landed above Giant Wood Ridge, standing alone with his sword to block the dark clouds.

"Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

A sinister voice echoed inside the sedan chair, and dark clouds began to gather in the sky, accompanying the words.

In an instant, it transformed into a tall, dark figure, like Ghost God returning from the Yellow Springs, obscuring the sky and darkening the earth.

The Ghost God figure raised its right hand, like a giant crushing an ant, and swung it down at the boy standing above Giant Wood Ridge.

In response, Chen Mobai swung his sword! Accompanied by the surging Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, a purple Sword Light soared into the sky, instantly transforming into a surging pillar of lightning, directly cleaving through the sinister Ghost Hand and cutting through the ghostly energy. The remaining force continued to strike the bright red sedan chair at the very center of the dark clouds.

A pale, jade-like hand emerged from the sedan curtain and directly grasped the Purple Lightning Sword that Chen Mobai had unleashed. Just as the pale hand was about to exert force to crush the Sword Light, it discovered an overwhelming force of extreme yang and strength that made it feel as if it were holding Magma.

Amidst the hissing sound of wisps of smoke, the pale palm began to turn charred black, gradually turning into ashes, revealing translucent finger bones.

"Well done, Yang Lei!"

A sinister voice rang out from inside the sedan chair, followed by the breaking of a section of the index finger's crystalline bone, which burst forth with a chilling white aura and transformed into a phantom White Bone skull. The skull opened its blood-red maw and swallowed the Purple Lightning Sword whole.

As the two extreme forces clashed, the sky above Giant Wood Ridge was instantly transformed into a bizarre mix of half dark blue and half purplish-red. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy of Yin Yang and earth, representing the two extremes of yin and yang, was stirred up, causing a series of violent howls and tremors.

Under these circumstances, the eerie sedan chair could no longer maintain its original posture. The four Faceless Man carrying the sedan chair trembled slightly, and cracks appeared in its surface.

The curtain directly opposite him parted slightly, and Chen Mobai activated his Void Glimpse Spiritual Eye, revealing some clues inside the Crimson Sedan. Inside sat a headless person holding a head, but unfortunately, the head was pressed against his abdomen, and he could only see the hollow back of the head.

"The sword of Sect Master Chen of the Divine Wood Sect is somewhat effective against mine!"

The curtain fell, covering the inside again, but the eerie sounds still drifted out.

"Our sect should not have any major grudges with your Yellow Springs Road."

Chen Mobai, holding the Purple Lightning Sword, said, "The one who forcibly entered the Yellow Springs Road was the Primordial Ancestor, the founder of the Five Elements Sect. Their Divine Wood Sect has already separated, so this grudge should be settled with the Five Elements Sect."

"The entire Eastern Wasteland is merely our reincarnation pool. To avoid losing control, cultivators at the Nascent Soul level are not allowed to appear."

As the sinister voice spoke, Chen Mobai saw that the flesh and bones that had been destroyed by his Purple Lightning Sword were slowly recovering. Golden rays of light bloomed from the wounds, driving away and suppressing the wisps of purple electricity that had been wrapped around him.

"Gold Armored Corpse!"

Upon seeing this scene, Chen Mobai couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

Upon closer inspection of his translucent, jade-like finger bones, his expression suddenly turned serious.

"Jade Corpse!?"

The Sky River Realm has a method of cultivating the Corpse Path. Although it is a side path, once mastered, it is no less powerful than the Nascent Soul stage.

The Corpse Decomposition Demonic Sect, one of the Eighteen Demon Sects, is a leader in this field.

The path of corpse cultivation is divided into Bronze Armored Corpse, Silver Armored Corpse, Gold Armored Corpse, Jade Corpse, and Flying Yaksha!

It is the counterpart to Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, and Deity Transformation! At the peak of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court, among the ten Ten Directions Hall that joined forces, there was one instance where they surrounded and killed the highest achiever of the Corpse Decomposition Demonic Sect, Flying Yaksha.

If it were Gold Armored Corpse, Chen Mobai could handle it with the help of the Purple Lightning Sword, but if it were Jade Corpse ...

"Release the Grand Array and let me in to kill Zhou Shengqing, and I will spare your Divine Wood Sect."

The sinister voice rang out again from inside the sedan chair, and the hand that had been injured by the Purple Lightning Sword returned to its pale color. A sinister black aura flowed out along with the dark clouds, transforming once more into a tall, dark phantom.

"Junior brother, enter the formation!"

As Fu Zongjue's voice rang out, Chen Mobai, not being stubborn, took a step back and fell into the range of the Myriad Wood Great Formation.

The eerie ghostly aura descended upon the cyan light barrier, causing the Spirit Vein of Giant Wood Ridge to ripple once more.

Seeing this, Chen Mobai couldn't help but feel slightly relieved.

Although the opponent's attack was powerful, representing the peak of the Third Grade, it was practically impossible for them to break through this Fourth Grade Myriad Wood Great Formation.

"The opponent should only be a ghost cultivator who has taken over the essence of a Jade Corpse. This Jade Corpse may even be incomplete, and may be Gold Armored Corpse that failed to transform into Jade Corpse."

Fu Zongjue was watching the battle from the sidelines, noticed something amiss.

"If that's the case, then he should know that this kind of attack is not going to break through the Grand Array. If we wait until Senior Brother Zhou Nascent Soul Formation Success ... Oh no... The villain is deliberately attacking the Grand Array to shake the Spirit Vein of Giant Wood Ridge."

Chen Mobai suddenly realized his opponent's true intentions, and his expression changed.

When Zhou Shengqing Nascent Formation, although he was completely immersed and focused, the vibrations and changes in the Giant Wood Ridge Spirit Vein were enough to awaken him.

This is similar to the situation when Meng Hong failed to Core Formation; the ghost cultivator deliberately wanted to make a commotion.

"I have already notified Senior Brother Mo to come and protect us. Until then, the two of us will stop this guy."

After hearing Chen Mobai's words, Fu Zongjue also realized the seriousness of the problem.

They can use the Myriad Wood Great Formation to keep their opponents outside Giant Wood Ridge, but this will affect Zhou Shengqing's important matter of Nascent Formation.

Under these circumstances, they had no choice but to take action.

A bolt of Purple Lightning and a golden ray shot out, about to stop the ghost cultivator from attacking again, when suddenly the four Faceless Man carrying the sedan chair transformed into four red rays and floated towards them.

"Mere ghost soldiers!"

Chen Mobai frowned, waved his sleeve, and the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror flew out, with Pure Yang Fire burning up and encircling the four red lights.

Then, the Pure Yang Spiritual Power suddenly circulated, instantly turning the four Faceless Man into ashes.

"Huh!"

The Hell Official inside the sedan chair saw this scene and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

His four ghost soldiers had been trained for many years, and when they joined forces, they could hold off even Core Formation Cultivator. His original intention was to stop Chen Mobai first, and then kill the weakest one Fu Zongjue, with lightning speed.

Little did anyone know that his speed in crushing Fu Zongjue was actually slower than Chen Mobai's speed in burning the four ghost soldiers.

The Golden Needle that Fu Zongjue shot out were frozen in front of the sedan chair, and the Hell Official sitting in the sedan chair used the Magic Artifact for the first time.

That's a Mourning Staff!

Although it was of a lower grade than the Purple Lightning Sword, under the blessing of the vast ghostly energy of the Hell Official, it unleashed an overwhelming power, smashing Fu Zongjue, who was unable to dodge in time, into hundreds of Puppetry fragments with a single blow.

"Junior brother, be careful, this guy can unleash the power of the Jade Corpse."

Fu Zongjue felt the sensation of his Golden Sun Puppet being smashed, and his face turned pale as he shouted at Chen Mobai.

Amidst the whistling sound.

The enormous Mourning Staff, already imbued with a chilling, ghostly aura, landed on Chen Mobai's head.

The power of this attack has already surpassed the Third Grade level.

Chen Mobai could only raise his Purple Lightning Sword and unleash his second strike of the day! As the two Fourth Grade powers collided, a pale, jade-like hand tore through the void and grabbed at Chen Mobai's neck from behind.

Fortunately, Chen Mobai's Void Glimpse Spiritual Eye remained open, keenly capturing this scene.

He didn't have time to turn the Purple Lightning Sword around, so he could only use the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror, which he could control at Ruyi, to block the Hell Official Official's Ghost Hand.

"A mere Third Grade rank!"

Amidst a cold laugh, a pale, jade-like hand, imbued with a dark, ghostly aura, casually grasped the mirror.

Pure Yang Fire erupts in response to the stimulus.

Then a scream rang out from inside the sedan chair!
