its terrifying aura shook the earth and cracked the surrounding rock walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a ferocious presence seemed ready to shatter the barrier here and drown the entire Yin Xu in stinking mud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great Spirit Sect’s King… that is undoubtedly his aura… has he returned?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A scream, almost human, emerged from the thick pink form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the massive body burst from the swamp, revealing its true form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its body resembled a giant worm, yet had no face or head—its entire length segmented with rings, continuously secreting viscous fluid that merged into the swamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At its apex, a faint crack now appeared, retaining an indomitable aura that could not be erased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, its abdomen glowed faintly with a spiritual light, shimmering with immortal golden radiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The great demon’s internal elixir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the sign of perfected life cultivation, of success on the demon path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demon spirits cultivate differently from humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they possess human bodies, they are far more prone to rejection reactions than ordinary human cultivators; even minor reactions damage the nascent soul, and severe ones erase all their hard-won cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, spirits seeking to possess human flesh and become demons must condense their essence into an internal elixir to encase their nascent soul, thereby isolating rejection reactions upon entering the body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this elixir is not a true Daoist internal elixir—it is only a false elixir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, when rural households found large centipedes, worms, or snakes, killed them, and cut them open, they would discover a bead-like object resembling a bullet—this was the false elixir formed by the spirit, proving it had prepared to possess a human body, needing only a human flesh vessel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally, spirits reach the third stage of Daoist cultivation, the [Mystic Master] realm, before they can form a false elixir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when one fully perfects life cultivation and enters the [Fasting Leader] realm, when heavenly thunder and fire descend, using the false to refine the true, does one forge a true elixir amid the calamity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then does one become a true great demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When demonic arts are perfected, they surpass even Daoist Fasting Leader experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the entity coiled within the black swamp was a true great demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Earth Marquis, to claim this black pool is already immense fortune—why are you enraged?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, another deep voice rang out, like a gale stirring, shaking the rock walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire ground trembled; nearby, a massive black serpent crossed through chilling mist, its scales gleaming with metallic luster, its belly also glowing with spiritual light, emitting immortal golden radiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most peculiar was the high ridge on its forehead, as if a single horn had grown—its aura was no less terrifying than the Earth Marquis’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mingshan, you cannot sense it, but I will not mistake it—Great Spirit Sect’s King… that man has returned…” the Earth Marquis roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the thick, stinking swamp boiled as a figure stepped forth, black hair streaming, eyes gleaming with ferocity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the great demon Earth Marquis; the pink massive form was his true body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Long ago, Great Spirit Sect’s King entered the Second [Great Dark Unlit] Calamity, hiding within Yin Xu, about to escape it—yet you became his calamity.” Mingshan chuckled in his deep voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Great Dark Unlit is the most ferocious calamity of all—how could escaping it be without turmoil?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long ago, when Zhang Lingzong was about to escape the calamity using his life root, he encountered this giant earthworm, which emerged from underground to seize the life root and nearly devoured him whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This was fate—destined for me to be his calamity…” the Earth Marquis said gravely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he failed to seize this fate; the calamity reversed, and he himself was struck down—if he had swallowed and absorbed Great Spirit Sect’s King back then, consumed the nascent soul forged from the [Divine Demon Sacred Embryo], how much greater would his achievements be today?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Without such fortune, how could you have perfected demonic arts and forged a true elixir in just over twenty years, and even claimed this black pool?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mingshan's distant gaze fixed on the boiling swamp, his envy unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demon spirits cultivate far slower than humans; the life-or-death pressure imposed by Great Spirit Sect’s King twenty years ago finally pushed this giant earthworm past its most critical threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, his fortune seemed to have begun rising—even claiming this black pool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin Xu nurtures countless treasures and secret realms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wind Calamity Zone is such a place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This black pool and swamp are likewise—claiming this black pool nearly doubles one’s strength, making one fearless even within Yin Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mingshan had once sought to seize this black pool too, but fate never favored him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Marquis said nothing more; his eyes burned red, brimming with murderous intent, still sensing the aura of “Great Spirit Sect’s King.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Earth Marquis, are you foolish? What cultivation has Great Spirit Sect’s King reached today? Master of the Daoist Priest realm, already a divine demon—do you think seeking revenge is anything but suicide?” Mingshan suddenly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Moreover, if Great Spirit Sect’s King truly returned, would I not sense such an aura? The entire Yin Xu would tremble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mingshan’s words calmed the Earth Marquis instantly; he observed his nascent soul, carefully sensing—it was indeed different, not the aura of a Daoist Priest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand—someone carries an object intrinsically linked to Great Spirit Sect’s King and has entered Yin Xu,” the Earth Marquis said gravely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“An intrinsic object!?” Mingshan pondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This person may not be close to Great Spirit Sect’s King, but they must be deeply connected,” the Earth Marquis sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is their intent?” Mingshan asked sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What else? Such a blatant act, using an intrinsic object as bait—clearly, they seek what is tied to it.” The Earth Marquis’s smile deepened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You mean…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The life root!?” Mingshan said gravely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha ha ha—fortune… fate truly still favors me! Twenty years ago, I failed to seize it—yet now, after twenty years, I still have a chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This treasure is mine by right.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Marquis let out a long howl, turned his body, and leapt into the black pool, his massive writhing form vanishing within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, the black pool sank into the ground, disappearing amid violent tremors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mingshan stared at the now-flat ground, his crimson eyes gleaming with longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is also my chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, his massive body’s black scales vibrated, his towering head plunged downward, his grotesque horn smashing through the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid a storm of dust, Mingshan vanished too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, deep within Yin Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precious blood shimmered like beads, radiating blazing flame; in a haze, An Wuyang’s figure blurred, as if merging into boundless light, indistinguishable from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Zhang Fan’s nascent soul resonated—he sensed a familiar, identical aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within that blazing light, yin and yang energies surged—like day, like night—yin and yang opposing, transforming into divine and demon, originally the mystery of a ten-thousand-year elixir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beneath the nine earths, eternal night sinks; dark caves hold no light, no dust…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One drop of precious blood gives rise to myriad forms; a thousand calamities turn the gate of life and death…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, An Wuyang formed a seal with both hands, his nascent soul leaping, murmuring incantations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“True fire burns open the realm of ignorance; divine and demon shatter the domain of darkness. To ask the true mystery of immortality—this body is originally the King of Light.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, An Wuyang’s body blazed with radiant light, illuminating the dark underground world; the precious blood before him burned fiercely, its flaming radiance like a rainbow piercing the void, vanishing deep into Yin Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Wuyang whispered, following the rainbow’s guidance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan stepped forward and followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crimson rainbow, like a meteor, shattered clouds and toxic mists with terrifying aura—it was as if a talisman of survival, carrying the two through the depths of the dark Yin Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad from ten years ago!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1340,"2026-06-19T21:05:46.332Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","b1a6f555b2a5bb1455368e8f649b787d0a33475664c211768edf69ab767a1824","pure-yang-chapter-481","pure-yang-chapter-479",520,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpure-yang-cover.jpg"]
