Chapter 666: Nirvana Sutra Great Perfection, extreme control!

All along, Luo Chen had discovered that he was easily susceptible to "inner demon invasion".

During the Qi Refining stage, he suffered from heart tribulations.

During the Foundation Establishment stage, he fell into demonic obstacles.

For this, he painstakingly cultivated related cultivation methods and secret techniques.

Whether it was 《Bright Spirit Breaking Evil》 or 《Dust Yuan Art》, both had the effect of tempering willpower and state of mind.

Unknowingly, he gradually forged a powerful spiritual heart that was indomitable and immune to outer demons.

This state of mind cultivation didn't look obvious in normal times, but whenever he encountered major events, Luo Chen could always treat them calmly and make correct trade-offs countless times.

Whether it was being trapped in Cangwu Mountain or surrounded by strong enemies in the Fallen Demon Land, even if it was the ten-thousand-mile pursuit of the late-stage Nascent Soul Moon Scatterer, he still maintained inner calmness amidst the frantically restless emotions.

Thus, for an entire Golden Core realm, he never encountered inner demon invasion similar to the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages again.

However!

What Luo Chen didn't expect was that inner demons didn't arise, but outer demons attacked.

After breaking through to Nascent Soul and passing the tribulation, Han Zhan suddenly attacked!

That battle in the sea of consciousness could be seen as a major outer demon tribulation.

More than ten years had passed, and even though he was safe and sound and his cultivation was better than before, he still felt lingering fear.

"In the world of cultivators, am I the only one like this, or is everyone like this?"

In his leisure time, Luo Chen had also asked himself.

But in the end, he didn't get an answer.

Unable to force it, Luo Chen could only let it be and try his best to strengthen himself.

And now, after turning from bad to good, his harvest also exceeded ordinary people's imagination.

A complete Great Five Elements Sword Array map, the refining method for Feiyunzi's sword pills, and even an attached gold-attribute True Tool grade sword pill without any will aura!

Holding the sword pill, Luo Chen was lost in thought.

This should be the weapon Feiyunzi prepared for himself.

From this point of view, this sword cultivator Feiyunzi seemed not so pure.

Sword cultivators cultivate only one sword pill in their life.

If the sword is there, the person is there; if the sword is gone, the person is gone.

He left himself a way out from the beginning; no wonder his sword path lacked a bit of flavor and was far from the powerful atmosphere of one sword breaking ten thousand laws.

"However, it's cheap for me in the end."

Luo Chen chuckled and put the array map, casting record, and sword pill together.

Four more were missing; after spending time to gather them, he might be able to master a powerful sword array.

Subsequently, he took stock of other resources in Feiyunzi's storage belt.

He didn't feel it at first glance, but now that he took stock one by one, Luo Chen couldn't close his mouth.

Various rare medicinal herbs, elixir pills suitable for Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators, were dazzling.

There were also more than a dozen classics covering various aspects, and most of them were rare in the outside world.

For example, a jade slip without any prohibitions imposed on it recorded the things Luo Chen needed most at the moment.

《North Sea Geography Record》

Inside, it detailed the geographical environment of the North Sea, attached with corresponding force names.

Especially, Feiyunzi had also divided the power pattern of the North Sea after the Yuanmo Sect on the jade slip before he died.

The Demon Luo Flow occupied twelve sea areas, just corresponding to the twelve flow masters.

The Penglai Immortal Sect, which returned from the Demon Sea, occupied three major sea areas alone.

The Wan Xian Society took the Fulong Mountain Range as the center and occupied eight sea areas in a scattered manner. It looked like a lot, but three of them were where the Three Oceans defense line was located, needing to face demon beast invasion all year round, which outsiders didn't covet at all.

The other three were originally the long-standing territories of Nascent Soul forces.

In other words, the prosperous land truly mastered by the Wan Xian Society was actually only two sea areas.

The force with the most abundant strength was the Canghai Orthodox Alliance!

With the strength of one alliance, it occupied twenty-nine complete sea areas, each with a Nascent Soul cultivator sitting in town!

If it weren't for the fact that this force belonged to an interest alliance, only relying on the prestige of the great power Li Canghai to suppress it, and the internal hearts were not united, then even if the Demon Luo Flow united with the Penglai Immortal Sect, I'm afraid they wouldn't dare to confront them head-on.

Luo Chen didn't pay much attention to some other scattered small forces.

It was just that when exiting the jade slip, his spiritual sense specifically paid attention to the sea area occupied by the Tianyuan Commercial Alliance.

Seven, not many.

But the influence of the Tianyuan Commercial Alliance had become increasingly huge over the years, gradually covering the three parties of orthodox, demonic, and loose cultivators, and the entire North Sea could feel the existence of this commercial alliance.

Especially the Tianyuan Dao Sect behind it!

That was a behemoth standing in the distant Central Plains!

Even when the Yuanmo Sect was still there, they were just looking at each other across the sea, minding their own business.

Placing the jade slip alone in a place within reach of the storage ring, Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"With this map, I can take fewer detours after returning to the cultivation world."

Subsequently, he continued to take stock of Feiyunzi's relics.

If asked what was most in Feiyunzi's belt?

That was undoubtedly related to magic treasures!

One top-grade magic treasure, Heavenly Gang Furnace, with no combat power, born only for casting and refining elixirs.

Three top-grade magic treasure flying swords.

Twelve middle-grade magic treasures.

Low-grade magic treasures and magic tools were few and far between.

Each one was refined by Feiyunzi himself, with his unique cloud-pattern mark left on it.

These treasures, if all taken out, were enough to arm a smaller Nascent Soul sect. If it were a Golden Core sect, it could arm a Golden Core large sect to the teeth.

Luo Chen reached out and took out a long painting halberd, looking at it with interest.

This was a strange magic treasure, rarely used by cultivators in the cultivation world.

The reason he cared so much was that this magic treasure was of low grade, only low-grade, but it was placed in that pile of top-grade magic treasures, side by side with those three flying swords.

Upon starting, Luo Chen raised his eyebrows.

Heavy!

An extreme sense of heaviness made his wrist bend, and the painting halberd fell straight to the ground.

But who was Luo Chen? Even without using source power, he possessed peerless divine strength.

He held the halberd body with one hand and the halberd handle with the other, his muscles bulging, and he slowly lifted it in front of him.

"So heavy, I'm afraid it has ten thousand jun of strength."

"A cultivator's spiritual sense might be able to barely control it, but it's too strenuous; this doesn't look like a magic treasure refined for cultivators."

"Could it be specially refined for those body refiners?"

Luo Chen's heart stirred, and a wisp of crimson power flowed out from his arm, covering the painting halberd.

He didn't have the gang energy of a body refiner, but he had source power.

Don't know if it could...

The next moment, source power covered it, and the painting halberd suddenly became light in his hand; although it was still heavy as a mountain, it could at least be waved at will.

Luo Chen was startled, and then naturally revealed a smile.

Before, he was thinking about refining a weapon that could withstand source power and increase source power after forming the Nascent Soul.

Didn't expect that he would encounter a pillow when he was sleepy now.

The grade might be a bit low, but just relying on that ten thousand jun of weight, it was not something ordinary cultivators dared to bump into.

"Don't know what material this magic treasure was refined with."

Luo Chen became interested, and his spiritual sense fell on the dark halberd body of the painting halberd, as well as the crescent sharp blade and spear tip flashing with faint cold light.

Relying on his own knowledge, he recognized some materials.

Geng Metal, Thunder Sand, and a large amount of Trace Mud, but he couldn't recognize the main material.

Swish!

A wisp of blue flame floated out, and the Withered-Prosperous True Fire covered the halberd body.

With the terrifying high temperature of the Withered-Prosperous True Fire burning, gradually, a special aura emerged.

That was a sense of thickness like the earth!

"Origin Heavy Heaven Mountain Stone!"

Luo Chen was stunned; he never expected that the main material of this painting halberd was an extraterrestrial meteorite recorded in ancient books—Origin Heavy Heaven Mountain Stone!

In ancient times, there was such a meteorite that descended from outside the sky.

Its size was not large, but it fell to the ground, immovable and unpullable.

Therefore, someone took the weight of one origin and the meaning of heaven-descending mountain, giving it such an image name.

The main material of this painting halberd was actually Origin Heavy Heaven Mountain Stone, and even because of the special nature of the material, Feiyunzi couldn't engrave enough arrays on it, which affected its grade.

"Wait, stop, stop!"

Luo Chen waved his hand and hurriedly took back the Withered-Prosperous True Fire.

That fire spirit was playing happily just now and almost really melted this painting halberd.

"Know you are powerful, okay!"

Luo Chen glared at the Withered-Prosperous True Fire and put it away.

Since becoming spiritual, the Withered-Prosperous True Fire had been very active. Luo Chen used to suppress its spirituality, but after forming the Nascent Soul, Luo Chen felt he could let it grow, so he didn't suppress it much.

Now it was becoming more and more rampant.

Ignoring the grievance of the Withered-Prosperous True Fire, Luo Chen happily inserted the painting halberd into the ground.

Next, he had to spend some time to refine this painting halberd and supplement some means for himself.

Finally, Luo Chen took stock of the spirit stones left by Feiyunzi.

Whoa!

It was also a not-small amount!

Adding up spirit stones of various grades, there were a full five hundred million low-grade spirit stones.

If adding the thirty thousand top-grade spirit stones Luo Chen obtained before, converted, Luo Chen's current family wealth was eight hundred million!

This didn't count those ten top-grade spirit stones of Han Zhan.

Those were strategic resources and couldn't be measured by normal cultivation world currency.

"Tsk tsk! Sure enough, a horse doesn't get fat without night grass, and a person doesn't get rich without windfall. I have painstakingly managed for so many years, spirit stones coming in and out, constantly consuming, and I didn't see so much assets in two hundred years. But just a few battles, and I jumped into huge wealth, never having to worry about spirit stones again."

Luo Chen felt endlessly sentimental.

However, if he were really allowed to choose, he would absolutely not want to get rich through this method.

Too dangerous!

Leaving his own mark on Feiyunzi's cloud-pattern belt, changing it to red, and happily tying it around his waist, Luo Chen continued to cultivate.

Time passed slowly.

The spiritual energy on Long Yuan Island, after the flash of brilliance, finally began to decline gradually.

Countless spiritual energy flowed out towards heaven and earth and into the sea day and night.

Even with array obstruction, the array was also born relying on the earth veins and couldn't stop the collapse trend of spiritual energy venting.

This was exactly flourishing to decline!

Luo Chen's cultivation also began to gradually come to an end.

In the third year after the realm was consolidated, he optimized the Green Yang Great Handprint and unlocked Han Zhan's storage bag.

In the fifth year, he unlocked Feiyunzi's storage belt, gaining a full harvest.

In the seventh year, he thoroughly refined that True Tool grade Soul-Summoning Banner.

In the eighth year, after failing to refine the Penglai Eight-Corner Pavilion several times, Luo Chen took a different path, adopting Han Zhan's early method to refine the Eight-Corner Pavilion and obtained certain permissions.

The reason why this True Tool was so difficult to refine was related to it being a heritage True Tool.

Although the Penglai Immortal Sect didn't completely hand it over to someone to control, they also left complex prohibitions on it.

With Luo Chen's current attainments, wanting to completely refine it would take at least several decades.

However, just this part of the permission was enough to support Luo Chen's daily use.

When the ninth year arrived, his main cultivation method reached Great Perfection.

《Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra》 reached Great Perfection!

This day, Luo Chen looked at the progress bar on the attribute panel, which had reached 【Grandmaster 100/100】, and the entry flickered, turning into the three words 【Great Perfection】.

No changes?

Luo Chen hesitated,

and in the situation where spiritual energy was not very abundant, he operated his life-bound cultivation method again.

He used one mind for two purposes, feeling the absorption of spiritual energy from the outside world.

"It's half more than before!"

"A small qualitative change, barely enough to support my Nascent Soul stage cultivation."

"In this way, changing the main cultivation method is not so urgent."

Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

This cultivation method was worthy of being called the number one fire-attribute cultivation method in the world; just the Golden Core chapter had many wonderful uses.

Even after the Nascent Soul stage, relying on the Great Perfection proficiency, it could still support the cultivation of Nascent Soul cultivators.

Suddenly.

Luo Chen's heart stirred.

When absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it seemed there were some changes?

His heart moved, and the Nascent Soul domain unfolded suddenly!

The free-floating fire-attribute spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the outside world surged in, and a powerful sense of oppression shrouded the abyss.

At the same time, Luo Chen gave a light drink.

"Come out!"

The next moment, the Withered-Prosperous True Fire quietly emerged.

It looked at Luo Chen trembling and spread its branches.

"Sure enough!"

Luo Chen manipulated those branches derived from the true fire and integrated them into his Nascent Soul domain.

In an instant, an extreme destructive power began to spread.

In the abyss, countless rocks began to melt.

Luo Chen leaped up and jumped into the sky above Long Yuan Island.

"Black King!"

The Black King cultivating on the island moved in response.

"Master, are you testing the move again?"

Luo Chen looked down at the Black King and smiled slightly.

"This time, it's very simple; you just bless your whole body with source power and try to resist my Forest Fire Prison."

The Black King said "Oh", not very surprised.

Nascent Soul domain, it doesn't have any effect on their Desolate Beasts.

This thing called source power naturally doesn't fear domain suppression.

Luo Chen had realized it before and had also taught this method to the Black King.

At this moment, facing the awe-inspiring fire prison, the Black King waited leisurely for the domain suppression.

But soon, his expression changed.

Looking at the wisps of blue smoke rising from his body.

"How could this be?"

Whoosh...

Luo Chen breathed a long sigh of relief.

Looking at his domain, joy appeared on his face.

The Great Perfection 《Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra》 didn't have much addition to cultivation; at least for Nascent Soul cultivators, the effect was average, only barely usable.

But the other effect it produced was unexpected.

It had an extraordinary control over fire-attribute spiritual energy of heaven and earth!

That was free-floating spiritual energy that hadn't been refined and hadn't been marked with his own imprint!

Not only over the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but also over the substantial fire, it possessed terrifying control, just like the natural suppression of a superior over an inferior.

The Withered-Prosperous Fire Spirit was arrogant before, and Luo Chen needed to scold it.

But at this moment, it was trembling, letting Luo Chen manipulate it.

Luo Chen simply integrated it into the Forest Fire Prison... not a simple fusion, but also integrated its characteristic of burning the vitality of living beings into it.

Therefore, the current Forest Fire Prison could not only suppress the enemy but also had an additional supernatural power.

Melting the Void!

It could melt the spiritual energy of heaven and earth of other attributes, and even the source power of the Black King that didn't fear the Nascent Soul domain!

One could imagine that when fighting with the enemy, once the Forest Fire Prison came out, the enemy couldn't control the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but Luo Chen could master it; with the growth of one and the decline of the other, it was enough to determine the victory.

"Not in vain for my hundred years of bitter cultivation!"

A hundred years, no exaggeration!

Since Luo Chen obtained the 《Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra》, all the way to cultivation, until now, a hundred years had passed.

Looking at

the cultivation methods and secret techniques Luo Chen learned in his life, none of them took as long as this.

And the final harvest truly made Luo Chen satisfied.

"Don't know what kind of wonders the Nascent Soul chapter of 《Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra》 possesses?"

Luo Chen fantasized for a moment and then returned to the abyss.

Unknowingly, the tenth year arrived.

The spiritual energy on Long Yuan Island had fallen to a level that was fundamentally unsuitable for Nascent Soul True Persons to cultivate.

Even in the abyss, there was only the cave dwelling that Luo Chen was protecting with all his strength, barely having the quality of a 4th-rank spiritual vein, and it was still constantly falling.

This year, Luo Chen was 226 years old!

In the morning, he slowly opened his eyes and blinked his eyelashes.

"Time to go!"

Luo Chen rose leisurely and left the abyss.

Outside, the Black King and others who had received notice in advance were already prepared.

Luo Chen extended his right hand, and an eight-corner pavilion slowly emerged in his palm.

"Jinghe, take this treasure to collect all the spirit soil on the island, leave not an inch of soil!"

Sang Jinghe had already succeeded in Core Formation and now had the Golden Core early-stage realm, barely able to control the Penglai Eight-Corner Pavilion.

He took the treasure and left.

"Seeing Tianxuan, go to the abyss and take out all the located spirit stone raw ores."

Seeing Tianxuan happily accepted the order.

Even if those raw ores had insufficient internal spiritual energy due to spiritual energy venting, the grade was still there; later, as long as the layout was proper, relying on these raw ores could also create a spirit land.

"Black King!"

"Here!"

"Go and take away all the Longqiu on the island!"

The Black King chuckled, twisted his huge body, and went to the north side of Long Yuan Island.

Changing to other demon beasts or desolate beasts, it would be difficult to take away so many Longqiu.

But he was different.

When healing thirty years ago, hundreds of millions of Longqiu blood were integrated into the blood pool, and he completely absorbed them.

In a sense, he also possessed the Longqiu bloodline.

Because of the massive slaughter of Longqiu before, the Longqiu on the island fled, but later many Longqiu returned one after another; apart from the spiritual energy overflowing on the island, there was also the reason for the high-rank Longqiu aura naturally emitted by the Black King.

Same clan, same affection!

After issuing these orders, Luo Chen went alone to the old site of Xiaqiu.

The former Xiaqiu Mountain was now just a huge pit.

There, a huge white tiger stood quietly.

Twenty years passed, wind and rain beat upon it, not changing its restrained killing intent.

Moss and vines covered it, giving it a bit more vicissitudes.

Luo Chen looked at this huge white tiger, took a deep breath, and leaped onto its head.

Sitting cross-legged, he struck out prohibition after prohibition with his fingertips, falling on the white tiger.

Puppet Art, he also knew it!

Being by Han Zhan's side for so long, through ear and eye influence, he could learn some.

Perfectly controlling puppets might be very difficult, but subduing them was simple.

Especially!

He now had a split soul!

When all prohibitions were struck, Luo Chen's heart moved, and the split soul entered the puppet's head.

Vaguely, he could feel a group of silent souls deep in the puppet.

This White Tiger puppet was not a dead object!

There was a group of restrained tiger souls in it; facing that tiger soul, Luo Chen's split soul slowly approached.

Deep in the demon sea, there was such a spirit mountain that was extremely famous within the demon race.

Its name, Yuntai!

The reason why this spirit mountain was famous lay in its master, who was a rare alchemy master among the demon race.

That demon—Sea Corner Heavenly Matron!

This day, the light on Yuntai Mountain shone brightly.

The Sea Corner Heavenly Matron in a flowery green dharma robe walked out from the mountain.

At the same time, in the sea area under the mountain, rays of five-pointed star light emerged, and at a glance, there were as many as a hundred.

"Heavenly Matron!"

"Heavenly Matron!"

The Sea Corner Heavenly Matron nodded, looking at her descendants, revealing a satisfied smile.

"Not bad, you haven't neglected cultivation these years. Then next, follow me to the Abyss-Falling Sea Area!"

She waved her large sleeves, took a hundred third-rank clansmen, and headed straight for the distant Abyss-Falling Sea Area.

The Abyss-Falling Dragon Sect was trapped in the Five Elements Heaven and couldn't come out for at least several hundred years.

Even, it was possible they couldn't come out for a lifetime.

This meant that the other party's place of cultivation was unoccupied.

She had been there with the Shark Emperor Flowing Monarch before.

Knowing that there were tens of millions of Longqiu on it, as well as countless spirit soil.

If she could bring this spirit soil back to Yuntai Mountain, it could add great foundation to her Sea Corner clan!

You know, the Sea Corner clan was not only good at alchemy but also good at cultivating medicinal herbs.

With this spirit soil, it was like adding wings to a tiger!

And those Longqiu, without the tribal leader, could only be enslaved by them.

"If it weren't for the fact that after I left Mingzhao Heaven, I encountered the Blood Nightmare Demon Luo in a panic and was injured in my main body, I wouldn't have had to heal for thirty years."

"Going to the Abyss-Falling Sea Area now should still be in time."

"No, even if it's not in time and occupied by other demon beasts, I must try my best to take it down."

The Sea Corner Heavenly Matron's eyes flickered, her face determined to win.

She took the elite of the clan, traveled east all the way, and headed straight for the Abyss-Falling Sea Area.

Wherever she passed, the demon beasts in the demon sea were all terrified.

No one expected that the seemingly weak Sea Corner clan had such huge power, with as many as a hundred third-rank demon king-level existences.

This was just the tip of the iceberg; perhaps there were more third-rank Sea Corner demon kings left behind on Yuntai Mountain.

Perhaps, this was the influence of a powerful alchemy master!

With the power of one person, revitalizing a clan, making the weak Sea Corner clan grow strong.

Ignoring the thoughts of those demon beasts, the Sea Corner Heavenly Matron traveled east, her journey becoming more and more urgent.

She was urgent for a reason.

The demon race elites taken away by the Sea Emperor Whale and North Departure Great Sage in the early years had already escaped from the North Pole Night Mo Heaven and were massively attacking human territory.

She had to seize this opportunity to seek benefits for the clan.

If she really waited for those strong ones to return, the legacy of the Abyss-Falling Dragon Sect wouldn't be her turn.

Therefore, she must seize the time!

One month later.

The Sea Corner Heavenly Matron, who had been traveling day and night, arrived outside Long Yuan Island with a hundred elite clansmen.

She looked blankly at the huge island that had been scraped three feet, like a ruin, her mind dazed.

"Did I go to the wrong place?"
