Heavenly Sword Marrow Cleansing Scripture: Perfection

Sun Yu stood on the headless corpse of the Three-Eyed Blood Ape.

He bent down, his right hand like a steel blade, and plunged it directly into the shattered skull of the blood ape. He fumbled for a moment in the scalding mixture of red and white.

Sun Yu yanked his wrist outward sharply.

"Pfft."

A Demon Core the size of an adult's fist, dark red all over and covered in strange patterns, was forcibly ripped out by him.

The Demon Core was extremely hot, like a branding iron just pulled from a furnace.

Even after leaving the great Demon Beast's body, an incredibly violent demonic energy still raged wildly within the Demon Core, emitting a dull buzzing sound.

Sun Yu casually wiped the bloodstains from the surface of the Demon Core on the rough animal hide.

He did not use any tools to neutralize its properties, nor did he use any cultivation techniques to slowly refine it.

Sun Yu opened his mouth and directly stuffed the scalding Demon Core into it.

His Adam's apple bobbed.

"Gulp."

The fist-sized Demon Core was swallowed whole.

As soon as the Demon Core landed in his stomach.

"RUMBLE!!!"

An unimaginable, violent demonic energy exploded within Sun Yu's body, like an ignited powder keg!

This demonic energy was too vast, too wild.

For an ordinary Grandmaster of the Blood Washing Realm, even swallowing a piece the size of a fingernail clipping would cause the violent demonic energy to instantly crush their internal organs, leading to instant death by explosion.

Sun Yu's belly suddenly bulged outward by a circle.

But he didn't even frown.

"Suppress it."

Sun Yu snorted coldly.

Within his body, his internal organs roared to life like a furnace.

The Yin-Yang vortex formed by the convergence of the Great Sun Boiling Blood Art and the Cold Toad Breath Swallowing Technique in his Dantian instantly transformed into a colossal, unparalleled grinding machine.

The extreme Yang blood and extreme Yin Internal Breath spun madly, crushing the rampant demonic energy that tried to run amok.

Under the dual torment of extreme heat and extreme cold, the demonic energy let out an incredibly shrill, invisible scream.

In less than the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn.

This terrifying power, enough to blow apart a Grandmaster, was ground to dust and completely tamed by the Yin-Yang vortex.

The violent demonic energy was entirely converted into the purest, most concentrated blood nourishment, which poured madly into Sun Yu's limbs and bones.

Sun Yu took a deep breath.

The hunger vanished, and his body was filled with an unprecedented surge of blood.

He bent down, grabbed one of the Three-Eyed Blood Ape's thick hind legs with both hands, and dragged its massive corpse back to the camp of giant beast skulls like a dead dog.

The night was deep.

No light penetrated from outside the poisonous miasma.

Sun Yu sat cross-legged in the center of the beast skulls.

He ate the flesh and blood of the Three-Eyed Blood Ape raw, waiting quietly.

His blood surged like great rivers.

After an unknown amount of time.

An invisible string in Sun Yu's mind suddenly tensed.

Midnight had arrived.

On his retinas, silver light rippled like water.

The panel appeared.

[Cultivation Technique: Heavenly Sword Marrow Cleansing Scripture (Major Accomplishment)]

Behind the entry, the faintly glowing "+" sign lit up right on time.

This was also the last time he could add points to this cultivation technique.

Sun Yu put down the half-gnawed beast bone in his hand and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

[Heavenly Sword Marrow Cleansing Scripture (Perfection)]!

"Zzzzzzz!!!"

The moment the text formed.

Within Sun Yu's body, there was no tearing pain in his flesh and blood like in the past.

Instead, a clear, high-pitched sword cry erupted!

This sound didn't come from outside, but burst forth simultaneously from the depths of his two hundred and six bones.

Ten thousand swords chimed as one!

The sound pierced through flesh and skin, echoing and reverberating within the hollow demon beast skull, even carving several faint white marks onto the hard bone walls.

Sun Yu closed his eyes.

He could clearly feel the final transformation in the depths of his bone marrow completely finishing.

The mortal bone marrow was completely gone.

In its place was solidified sword marrow, purely condensed from extremely sharp sword qi!

Bones like divine swords.

Immediately after, the most crucial qualitative change began.

The blood within him, heavy as lead and mercury, began to surge madly through the perfected sword marrow with the violent pumping of his heart.

Blood and sword marrow mingled.

The originally dark red, lead-mercury blood underwent an incredible mutation the moment it flowed out of the bone marrow.

Extremely sharp sword qi forcefully squeezed into the microscopic structure of the blood.

The heavy, viscous blood was actually dyed with a layer of extremely sharp, light gold!

Light gold lead-mercury blood!

As this blood flowed through his veins, it no longer produced a dull, rolling sound, but rather the friction and collision of countless tiny flying swords.

Sun Yu opened his eyes.

A flash of golden light flickered in the depths of his pupils.

He slowly exhaled a breath.

This white, turbid breath spewed from his nostrils, and instead of dissipating immediately, it transformed into two straight streams of air, fiercely impacting the hard rock three feet in front of him.

"Ch! Ch!"

Two smooth sword marks, an inch deep, were directly cut into the rock.

Exhaling sword qi!

Sun Yu stood up.

He didn't deliberately activate his Internal Breath, nor did he use any Martial Skills.

He simply raised his right hand extremely naturally and casually waved his arm in mid-air.

"Swoosh!"

His arm sliced through the air.

The light gold blood had endowed him with unparalleled sharpness.

This single wave actually cut through the air, creating an extremely piercing sonic boom.

Sun Yu lowered his head to look at his hands.

He felt that his current body was no longer a mere flesh and blood vessel, but a complete, peerless humanoid weapon.

Every movement he made, even ordinary walking or sitting, carried a terrifying sharpness capable of cutting through metal and stone.

Blood Washing Realm Peak!

Marrow Transformation Perfection!

Sun Yu clenched his fists, feeling the violent power within him that could almost cleave heaven and earth.

Now, if he encountered a Grandmaster of the Blood Washing Realm like Ku Jian Dao Ren again.

He wouldn't even need to use his dual-colored ice and fire Internal Breath.

His Supreme Dao flesh, imbued with sword qi alone, could crush both the person and their qi into a pulp with a single punch.

Just as Sun Yu was preparing to turn and leave the camp, continuing to use combat to adapt to this new power.

The silver panel on his retina suddenly flickered violently without any warning.

The originally silver border was now covered in a layer of extremely dense blood-red light.

Rows of blood-red text frantically flashed across the panel.

[Detected Host has completed Marrow Transformation!]

[Bones like divine swords, blood like lead and mercury. The foundation of Supreme Dao Divine Ability has reached its limit.]

[Supreme Dao Divine Ability Cold Iron Demonic Body is about to undergo its first advancement and transformation!]

[Transformation Condition: Must absorb extreme Sha Qi as a catalyst to ignite the potential of the demonic body.]

Sun Yu stared at the blood-red prompt on the panel, his breathing involuntarily pausing for a moment.

"Cold Iron Demonic Body, advance?"

An unprecedented fervor ignited in his eyes.

This Supreme Dao Divine Ability, fused from an ordinary Postnatal technique, had already granted him invulnerability and immunity to ice and fire at the Beginner stage.

If it advanced and transformed again, what terrifying spectacle would that be?

"Extreme Sha Qi as the catalyst."

Sun Yu quietly repeated the condition.

He turned his head and looked at the scarlet swamp outside the beast skull camp.

This was the Blood Sea Devil Abyss.

The most terrifying death trap in the entire Wind Snow Great Continent.

What this place lacked the least was Sha Qi.

But the thin, poisonous miasma that could be seen everywhere on the outskirts clearly did not meet the extreme standard required by the panel.

To advance, he had to find the core source of extremely dense and violent Sha Qi.

Or.

Personally orchestrate an ultimate slaughter capable of triggering a Sha Qi tsunami.

Sun Yu licked his lips.

He stepped out of the demon beast skull, his feet landing on the black mud.

His gaze pierced through the rolling scarlet poisonous miasma, looking deeper into the Devil Abyss.

Just then.

His terrifying perception at the Blood Washing Realm Peak allowed him to keenly detect a strange fluctuation.

It was an extremely subtle fluctuation, yet it carried the distinct characteristics of human True Qi.

Not a single Demon Beast.

It was a group of people.

And there were quite a few of them, coming from dozens of miles behind him, braving the poisonous miasma and cautiously encircling his position in a fan shape.

Sun Yu stopped.

He turned around, facing the direction of the fluctuation.

A cruel smile flickered in his eyes, as cold as an abyss.

He had just reached Marrow Transformation Perfection.

He was wondering where to find extreme Sha Qi and high-level Qi and Blood.

And now, someone was delivering themselves to his doorstep.

"They're chasing quite fast."

Sun Yu made no effort to conceal his aura.

He stood in place, his pale golden blood surging wildly.

The Extreme Devil Body acted like a black hole with its gaping maw, quietly awaiting the arrival of its prey.

Meanwhile.

Thirty miles away from Sun Yu, in the outer swamp of the Devil Abyss.

A team of several dozen people was struggling through the mud.

All of them wore black tight-fitting clothes, with a small, blood-dripping sword embroidered on their chests.

Heavenly Sword Sect Sword Guard.

These were the most elite and cold-blooded Death Warriors of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Each of them had a cultivation base at the early stage of the Blood Washing Realm or higher.

In the center of the team.

Four Sword Guards were jointly holding a copper mirror magical artifact emitting a faint blue halo.

The halo formed a circular shield, fiercely blocking out the scarlet poisonous miasma that attempted to erode them.

The shield hissed with corrosion, its light flickering, clearly unable to hold on for much longer.

Leading the team was a middle-aged man with an extremely sinister expression and a long scar across his face.

Li Canghai, the head of the Heavenly Sword Sect's Punishment Hall.

He did not hold a magical artifact; his True Qi radiated outwards, forcefully carving out three feet of clear space amidst the poisonous miasma.

Half-step Fetal Transformation Realm!

In Li Canghai's hand, he held a blood-red formation disk the size of a compass.

In the center of the formation disk, a dried, black drop of blood floated.

This was the life essence blood that Daoist Ku Jian had left in his sect's soul lamp.

Using an extremely malicious bloodline tracking secret technique, Li Canghai had used this drop of blood to forcefully capture the residual aura of the murderer who killed the Withered Sword Daoist.

The pointer on the formation disk spun wildly, finally pointing fixedly ahead.

"First Seat, this Devil Abyss's poisonous miasma is too strong. The poison-repelling artifact can only last for another half an hour at most," a sword guard commander reported in a low voice, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Half an hour is enough."

Li Canghai's eyes fixed venomously on the rolling red miasma ahead.

"That little beast thought he could survive by escaping into the Blood Sea Devil Abyss? What a pipe dream."

Li Canghai raised his hand, making a gesture to stop advancing.

"It's right here."

His voice was icy, filled with an undeniable killing intent.

"He can't run far. Spread out your formation, set up the Heavenly Gang Absolute Kill Sword Formation!"

Dozens of sword guards wasted no words.

They quickly spread out in the mud, occupying the formation eye points in each direction.

Each sword guard drew the steel longsword from their back, infusing their true qi into the sword body, their sword qi soaring into the sky, connecting with each other.

An extremely vast net of sword qi, filled with a destructive aura, slowly took shape within the poisonous miasma.

Li Canghai stood in the center of the sword formation, drawing the incomplete spiritual artifact flying sword from his waist, which emanated a strong bloody light.

"Wait for him to come. Once the sword formation closes, I will tear him to shreds!"

Li Canghai let out a cruel cold laugh.

He thought Sun Yu would be like a headless fly, crashing around in the Devil Abyss, eventually stumbling into this deadly net.

But he had no idea.

Thirty miles away.

Sun Yu's foot stomped down, shattering the mud swamp.

His figure transformed into a dark gold afterimage that tore through the air, moving with an extremely ferocious momentum.

He was actively crushing his way towards the direction of the sword formation!
