Chapter 464: Please Let Me Have a One-on-One Duel with Xu Zhangshou

Deng Yin's arm was severed. According to the Shushan worldview, it could be reattached; even if it could not, by cultivating an immortal body, it could grow back. However, because Deng Yin had lost all his Dharma Power, it could not grow back. All that remained was to attach a mortal arm or use Earth Treasures to refine and forge one.

But just as he had been placed into the Dantian, Deng Yin was suddenly terrified: "Ancestor, are you intending to refine me into a pill?"

Xu Jia's voice came from outside the Dantian: "Hurry and refine your sword. Furthermore, according to what you have learned, summon demons from the void into the furnace. I will refine them into your source essence together. You must also cultivate the method of uniting the Three Corpses internal demons with the Three Heavens external demons. As for your arm, it will grow back in time. I am using the Dantian to gather Spirit Machine, treating you as the pill, removing the dross and selecting the essence; naturally, you will achieve something. As for the fire in the furnace, it will not harm you, but if your will is not firm, you will be reduced to fly ash in an instant."

Only then did Deng Yin feel at ease, feeling that he had truly been frightened by the Shushan Sect, thinking that everyone was out to harm him.

Xu Jia dispatched the Six Dings and Six Jias to guard the Dantian, then immediately called Huo Can'er over: "I originally promised the Sword Casting Villa that I would pass on a portion of the Huashan Dutian Liehuo Zushi's inheritance to them in exchange for the Sword Casting Villa's sword-casting methods. It is just that I cannot easily leave Huashan now, as it is easy to be surrounded and intercepted, so I need you to secretly go down the mountain to Luling."

"The Sword Casting Villa has no God Immortal level experts, only Earth Immortals. Even if they have sword-casting means, they are merely Works Officials. Truly powerful flying swords are all from ancient times. Furthermore, the flying swords you, Sect Leader, refine are not inferior either."

Of course, Xu Jia was doing this to bring technology back to his own world. Over there, the Immortal Dao was developing industrialization, and American capital was developing the cultivation industry. If flying swords all had to be refined by people with Xu Jia's level of cultivation, it would be meaningless. One must create civilian flying swords, commercial flying swords, military flying swords, research-grade flying swords... It would be best to make flying swords as ubiquitous as American firearms.

Although Huo Can'er did not understand, he went anyway: "Then how much should I pass on to them?"

Xu Jia bundled up the Fire Department Spirit Official orthodoxy: "Look at the value. If their orthodoxy belongs to the Heavenly Court's Heavenly Works Institute, use this to trade. If they are very ordinary, it means they have no sincerity and have reneged on what they previously agreed to, then just take it by force."

Xu Jia would not pretend to be some moral saint.

He gave Huo Can'er the Dutian Liehuo Zushi's Dutian Liehuo Sword and the Nine Purples Li Fire Robe, plus the Binding Azure Dragon he had previously been bestowed, which could be considered a complete inheritance of the Dutian Liehuo Zushi's orthodoxy.

Xu Jia did not treasure the Dutian Liehuo Zushi's orthodoxy at all; if he sold it, he sold it. He even wished he could turn it into an electronic manual and put it on an online shopping app.

Come to think of it, the Ming Sect will soon rebel, the Yuan Dynasty will fall, and it will be the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty had Zheng He's voyages to the Western Oceans. If it could be developed, perhaps it would be the Eastern sword immortals fighting against the Western Hogwarts, or the Nordic gods, Greek gods...

This world is high-magic; over there, one might also be able to find some good things.

……

After forty-nine days, Deng Yin emerged from the Dantian. He saw that his figure had shrunk significantly, looking like carved jade, with only a vermilion dot between his brows, blood-red eyes, and horns growing on his head.

His severed arm had already regenerated, and a magic treasure that was like a blade yet not a blade, like a sword yet not a sword, and made of blood-colored fluid, floated behind his head.

It turned out that during these forty-nine days, he had used the "Demon Summoning Method" from the Blood God Scripture in the Dantian to summon many demons, all of which were then slaughtered by the "Asura Demon Sword" to feed the magic sword with demon blood. The remaining Essence Qi of the demons was refined and injected into Deng Yin's body, using Whirling Creation. His physical body returned to childhood, and he gained an extra lineage of the Ashura Wang, allowing him to directly cultivate the "Asura Demon Scripture" without being affected. As soon as he left the Dantian, a blood-sea illusion faintly appeared around him, as if Stephen Chow had gone to the mental hospital to find Huoyun Xieshen.

Only between his brows was there a faint look of compassion, as if he were a Bodhisattva in the sea of blood, except for the two small horns, which made him look headstrong and horn-prominent, seemingly an alien.

In forty-nine days, he summoned a total of ten demons: three Human Immortal realm demons, three Earth Immortal realm demons, and one God Immortal realm demon. These demons were all killed to feed the magic sword, and their Essence Qi was used to supplement himself to cultivate the Asura Demon Scripture—though now it should be the "Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's Scripture of Crossing the Ashuluo to Didao and Becoming an Immortal."

Thus, Deng Yin's Daoist Practice returned to the Yang Spirit realm, which was the best proof that he was suited for cultivating magic, not for cultivating immortality.

After returning to the Yang Spirit realm, he followed the ritual and summoned three external demons from the Blood Sea Demon Realm: one Bone Demon, one Blood God, and one Soul-Taking Demon.

With the assistance of the Six Dings and Six Jias, he beat these three demons one by one, forcing them to sign the Three Heavens Covenant, deposited his own Three Corpses internal demons onto these three external demons, and then refined these three external demons into a Blood God Pearl, which was embedded in the Asura Demon Sword, making this magic sword, refined from his own arm, one of the top magic swords in this world. Of course, the great desires of all living beings are the great vows of all living beings.

Whether it is slaughter, war, struggle, or rebellion, none can be initiated without reason; they are all extensions of politics, and the fundamental problem of politics is an economic problem, a problem of survival costs.

The earth unleashes its killing intent, and dragons and snakes rise from the land. Why do they rise? Because those in power have lost their virtue, and the masses of heroes chase the deer.

Deng Yin made a great vow based on this: any war he launches must be a just war; after every transformation, things must inevitably become better, not worse; he would kill all demons that could be killed...

In short, Xu Jia's method of using magic to control magic was correct. Even though Deng Yin cultivated the Asura Demon Scripture, his temperament was not twisted; instead, he treated it as a tool, rather than becoming a tool himself.

The first thing Deng Yin did upon coming out was to petition Xu Jia: "Master, I feel unprecedented power. As long as this Asura Demon Sword of mine grazes someone, it can seize their entire Essence Qi. The Bone Demon inside will refine their bones and Essence Qi, the Blood God will dissolve their blood and melt their flesh, and the Soul-Taking Demon will subdue their Primordial Spirit... Because of the intent to unleash killing intent from the earth, the Asura Sword's killing intent becomes stronger against those who cause more harm to the earth."

"Please allow me to go up to Shushan and have a one-on-one duel with my former senior brother, Xu Zhangshou!"

Xu Jia looked at his inflated appearance and only said: "No matter how this magic sword is, it is still a magic sword; it has not been whitewashed. Although you maintain your temperament, and even hold compassion in reverse, using magic to refine magic, all living beings only look at the appearance. A demon is a demon."

"If you go to Shushan now, others will only think that I have taught a peerless demon."

"You should go and kill all the old demons who have committed many evils. In this way, you will obtain the Merit of the righteous path. Then go and get a beautiful kasaya to wear, turn the chains in your hands into prayer beads, chant Amitabha, and finally write a manual expounding your philosophy, establish a sect, capture some small demons who have already entered the demonic path but have not committed many evils, and refine them all with your technique. After eliminating enough demons, you will be whitewashed into a righteous sect. Only then can you reflect that my realm is higher and my philosophy is more correct. Only then can you rightfully kill your way up to Shushan, stand on the moral high ground, and compete for the orthodoxy of Shushan. Otherwise, with your current appearance, although your cultivation has recovered and you have gained a magic sword, you will only be suppressed."
