~12 min read 2,270 words

Inside the cave dwelling.

The sound of ancient and awkward incantations rose one after another.

Gusts of gloomy wind, like the whispers of evil ghosts...

Two points of gray light flashed in Fang Xing's eyes, swelling by an inch, piercing into the Wan Xiang Meng Laomo's Nascent Soul.

Subsequently...

His divine sense divided into thousands, like thin needles, piercing into the Wan Xiang Meng Laomo's seven orifices.

Some scattered memory fragments slowly emerged before his eyes.

"No!"

Half an hour later, Fang Xing opened his eyes, and the Sword Nascent Soul in his body yawned, showing a trend of being somewhat listless.

Facts proved that the Nascent Soul spirit body holds onto the One, making it extremely difficult to soul-search.

Even if soul-searched, what is obtained are some meaningless fragments and life information.

"As expected, the true self still has to take action."

Fang Xing's true self sighed, grabbed the Wan Xiang Meng Laomo's Nascent Soul, and the Great Sun radiance flickered between his brows.

A streak of Great Sun radiance emerged, and the Wan Xiang Meng Laomo's Nascent Soul disappeared in a flash.

When it appeared again, it had already arrived in Fang Xing's sea of consciousness.

"In the past, cultivators always took the initiative to possess me; today, I'm passively inviting you to possess me..."

Fang Xing complained, and the Great Sun Furnace appeared instantly.

Streaks of Great Sun True Fire landed on the pitch-black Nascent Soul, completely igniting it.

The Wan Xiang Meng Laomo immediately let out a wail that didn't sound human.

Fang Xing, however, felt that the "Great Sun Tathagata Mantra" had improved again, and glanced at the attribute panel:

【Great Sun Tathagata Mantra: 270/400 (Master)】

"Oh? It seems the Nascent Soul of a Nascent Soul cultivator is indeed okay... If ten or eight more come, my Great Sun Tathagata Mantra will be almost cultivated to the Grandmaster rank."

He closed his eyes slightly and began to recall useful fragments in the "Wan Xiang Meng Laomo's" memory.

For example, the array map, important array eyes, and flaws of the Wan Xiang Sect's mountain-protecting array "Wan Xiang Impermanence Array"...

For example, the locations of some sect secret treasures and secret treasuries...

"Hmm... after the Wan Xiang Sect lost a False Nascent Soul and a Nascent Soul seed, it is truly failing to connect... the current Jin Dan cultivators have little hope of condensing a Nascent Soul..."

For such Jin Dan cultivators, Fang Xing was too lazy to hunt them down one by one.

If he happened to run into them, he would slaughter them while he was at it; if he didn't run into them, it was their luck.

Even if they were some cultivation geniuses, could their cultivation speed be as fast as his? If they wanted to take revenge on him, they might end up in despair!

"There are also some strange arts and secret techniques... This Wan Xiang Meng Laomo is so treacherous; most of the jade slips in the storage bag on his body are nine truths and one lie... all missing the most critical steps; once falling into this trap, even if you practice powerful spells, refined corpses... like that Turning Heaven Golden Corpse, when encountering the true owner, you might lose it with a single incantation..."

"As for the fundamental demonic path cultivation techniques, they are also missing a few lines of incantations, making it easy to go into demonic deviation..."

"Hmm?"

Fang Xing was browsing the Wan Xiang Meng Laomo's secret techniques casually when a look of interest suddenly appeared on his face.

"Method for refining a False Nascent Soul?"

He pondered silently and found that after the refining method, there was also an incantation on how to upgrade a False Nascent Soul into a cultivator's second Nascent Soul secret technique!

"This is not bad..."

However, after reading it, Fang Xing knew why this second Nascent Soul secret technique hadn't bloomed with brilliant light in the hands of the Wan Xiang Sect.

"A False Nascent Soul is equivalent to a False Jin Dan; wanting to upgrade it is unimaginably difficult..."

"If a False Jin Dan wants to become a True Dan, one must first dissolve the False Jin Dan..."

"A False Nascent Soul is different; it requires the 'Soul-Devouring Secret Technique' to devour the entire essence of another Nascent Soul to restore a bit of vitality... even one Nascent Soul is not enough; it takes at least two to advance to a Nascent Soul early stage second Nascent Soul..."

"A second Nascent Soul refined in this way is similar to a demonic object in essence and can advance by leaps and bounds in magic power by devouring other Nascent Souls... easily advancing to the Nascent Soul middle stage, or even Nascent Soul late stage realm!"

"However, the Nascent Soul late stage is the limit; such demonic objects cultivated through evil paths have no possibility of breaking through to Transformation into Divinity."

"Moreover, the more it devours, the fiercer its personality, and the easier it is to backlash against its master!"

"It's a pity about the Wan Xiang Meng Laomo's Nascent Soul..."

Fang Xing felt quite sorry: "Otherwise, as long as it devours one more, wouldn't it be able to advance to a true second Nascent Soul? Then my magic power and divine abilities wouldn't be inferior to a Nascent Soul middle stage cultivator at all."

"However, judging from the description of this secret technique, besides a cultivator's Nascent Soul, the essence pill of a Rank 4 Transformation into Divinity great demon should also be able to replace the effect of a Nascent Soul..."

"Looking at it this way, that Azure Water Cold Flood Dragon must not be let go..."

A thoughtful look appeared on Fang Xing's face.

Several days later.

A piece of news spread through the Dajing cultivation world like a thunderclap.

One of the five major demonic sects, the Wan Xiang Sect—exterminated!

Not only did the Supreme Elder, the Wan Xiang Meng Laomo, die and his soul vanish, but even the Wan Xiang Sect's mountain gate was broken by an unknown Nascent Soul Great Zhenjun, various treasures were looted, and Jin Dan cultivators suffered heavy casualties.

The Si Si Tian Jian Sect took the opportunity to send a large number of affiliated forces into the Five Sects and Ten Kingdoms region and the demonic domain further south; anyone with eyes could see that this was to cut weeds and eliminate roots.

The loose cultivators and small and medium-sized cultivation forces of the entire Zheng Kingdom and Qi Kingdom immediately fell into a carnival.

Even though most of what they obtained had to be handed over to the Si Si Tian Jian Sect, and resources like high-level spirit veins and spirit herb gardens were even more so, what they obtained was enough to make a cultivator rich overnight! Just as the eyes of the entire cultivation world were gathered on the Wan Xiang Sect, Fang Xing had already arrived at the Azure Wave Cave area with Chu Kuangtu.

The Azure Wave Cave is called a cave, but it is actually an inland giant lake; its lake water is emerald green, carrying a chilling aura.

According to rumors, in an earlier period, although there was a lake here, the lake water was clear to the bottom and had no cold aura.

In the emerald giant lake, there was an ancient cultivator cave dwelling named "Azure Wave Cave."

Later, the cave dwelling opened, and after a great battle, the "Azure Wave Cave" collapsed, and the eighteen "Nether Ancient Universe Cold Beads" treasured within shattered, dissolving into the lake, creating this tens of thousands of miles of cold lake.

After an unknown number of years, a Rank 3 snake python practiced here, passed the transformation heavenly tribulation, transformed into an Azure Water Cold Flood Dragon, and gathered a large number of demonic beasts, becoming a powerful demonic king.

During the initial land reclamation attempts, the righteous path forces were all blocked before the Azure Wave Cave and couldn't advance an inch.

On this day.

The ten-thousand-mile Azure Wave Lake was chilling; above it was a Universe Ring, a layer of green and red light covering down, spreading all over the surroundings of the lake.

The lake, which was about to set off huge waves, suddenly became calm, with no ripples.

High in the sky, stars twinkled, and a purple star shone brightly.

Chu Kuangtu was like an emperor among men, his flying sword dancing, full of the majesty and dominance of the Son of Heaven's sword, forcing a green flood dragon dozens of feet long to have no path to heaven and no door to enter the earth.

This flood dragon had scales like fish scales, blooming with a biting cold light under the sword light, actually colliding with Chu Kuangtu's natal flying sword and only losing a few dragon scales, its defensive power unimaginably astonishing.

It had two small horns on its head, without branching, and two claws on its belly, each claw with three toes, and no reverse scales under its neck.

Clearly, this was not a true dragon, but a flood dragon!

"Abominable human!"

At this moment, the Azure Water Cold Flood Dragon spoke human words and suddenly let out a loud dragon roar.

Boundless water flow was generated out of thin air, like a huge vortex, wanting to roll all the star sword light filling the sky into it.

Swish!

At the critical moment, Fang Xing killed his way in with his sword.

He and his sword became one, the sword light unimaginably fast, like a cold sword prison, rolling the Azure Water Cold Flood Dragon into it.

Countless white-gold sword lights erupted, carrying dots of blood-stained dragon scales, falling from mid-air.

It is conceivable that in the coming year, in this Azure Wave Cave, all kinds of dragon-blood demonic beasts will inevitably grow vigorously and multiply crazily...

"Roar roar!"

The Azure Water Cold Flood Dragon felt pain, and its heart was even more anxious.

It had previously relied on its strong demonic body and the lack of unity among the righteous path Nascent Souls to barely entangle with them.

Now, however, two Nascent Soul Sword Monarchs had come, their killing power astonishing!

And there were strange treasures that countered its water escape!

This even made it smell a trace of the aura of death.

The more it faced death, the crazier the transformed great demon became.

Roar roar!

Amidst the dragon roar, the Azure Water Cold Flood Dragon spat out a streak of emerald-green cold flame.

This flame was definitely ranked at Rank 4, emerald green in color, with the flame core inside like flowing water.

As soon as it appeared, heaven and earth seemed to suddenly enter a cold winter where dripping water freezes, and the entire lake surface began to freeze.

The sword light filling the sky seemed to be soaked by the cold, becoming slow, until it stagnated.

"Rank 4 cold flame? Truly a good evil beast!"

Fang Xing cursed, light flashed above his head, and the Myriad Laws Ghost Nascent Soul directly left the body.

This scene caused Chu Kuangtu's eyelids to twitch slightly.

The Nascent Soul spirit body is the foundation of a Nascent Soul cultivator; unless it is a last resort, they are unwilling to let the Nascent Soul leave the body, fearing various damages.

Although using the Nascent Soul to fight has the ability to catch people off guard, almost no Nascent Soul Great Zhenjun would do so.

But Fang Xing was different!

With the Myriad Laws Ghost Nascent Soul, he directly used the False Nascent Soul leaving the body as a conventional method.

At this moment, the Myriad Laws Nascent Soul stood above his head, holding the "Green Yang Demonic Lamp" in its hand.

His true self formed seals with both hands, and the Green Ghost Staff followed, emitting a sound of ghost wailing and wolf howling.

The Azure Water Cold Flood Dragon's movements stagnated; the demonic beast's soul was originally weaker than a cultivator's, so this could be considered hitting the seven-inch fatal spot.

At the same time, the Myriad Laws Ghost Nascent Soul above Fang Xing's head giggled and flicked its finger, and a bean-sized ink-green lamp fire flew out; it was the Soul-Devouring Demonic Fire!

Xiong Xiong!

The Soul-Devouring Demonic Fire came into contact with the Rank 4 cold flame; the extremely hot and extremely cold flames collided, instantly setting off a fire cloud the size of an acre, spreading crazily to the surroundings!

"Slash!"

Taking advantage of this heaven-sent opportunity, Chu Kuangtu and his sword became one, transforming into a huge purple sword light, slashing through the Azure Water Flood Dragon!

Clatter!

Two sections of dragon corpse fell from mid-air, blood spilling across the long sky all the way!

From the dragon corpse's belly, a pale green essence pill the size of a fist appeared, in which a miniature emerald-green little flood dragon let out a dragon roar, darting out from the flood dragon bead, holding the flood dragon bead in its mouth, flying away to the periphery in a panic!

Boom—!

Five colors—black, white, red, yellow, and green—shot into the sky, transforming into a demonic cloud the size of an acre, trapping the flood dragon essence soul within it.

"The physical body of a Rank 4 transformed great demon is unimaginably powerful, but the essence pill does not have the innate closeness to the Great Void like a cultivator's Nascent Soul spirit body, able to teleport and escape..."

Fang Xing looked at this scene, feeling thoughtful.
