Chapter 43: 【Golden Core Dao Fruit, A Bountiful Harvest】 (Seeking collection, seeking...)

The Huo Jiu Yao Wang burst out with survival instinct to escape, and its speed was something even the late Golden Core Yun She Yao Wang couldn't catch up with; even if Lu Chengtong used the 【Submerged Abyss Earth Escape】 supernatural power with the Treasure Mirror's Golden Core divine soul, he couldn't catch up.

But with the 【Round Light Manifestation】 supernatural power tracking all the way, Lu Chengtong firmly followed behind the Huo Jiu Yao Wang.

When the Huo Jiu Yao Wang stopped to heal its wounds, the distance between them began to close continuously.

With the 【Embryonic Transformation】 supernatural power, Lu Chengtong's aura was completely hidden.

It couldn't be said to be hidden, but fused.

Embryonic Transformation and fusion with the surrounding aura—to the outside world, he was just like an insect or a bird.

A Golden Core great demon would never care about the approach of an ant.

This time, the Huo Jiu Yao Wang's injury was indeed too severe.

It attacked in a rage, without reservation; the two fought, almost fighting for their lives, and the battle affected the entire Fengqishan, with the mountain top being beaten down by several zhang.

Of the two wings, the left wing was already crippled.

If the Yun She Yao Wang had chased for a while longer, it would definitely have been killed; fortunately, that guy was afraid in the end and didn't dare to chase again.

Because a little closer, it would enter the territory of another great demon, the "Rending Wind Demon King."

The Huo Jiu Yao Wang also restrained its aura at this time, not daring to expose itself; it had to seize the time to recover, and if it encountered other Demon Kings, it would be unable to resist.

Fortunately, it was familiar with the environment around here, and there was only one Golden Core great demon, the Rending Wind Demon King, and the rest were not worth worrying about.

This was a valley, and it didn't sense any other monsters; it was a relatively secretive place, suitable for recovery.

Just as it was thinking this, suddenly, its entire body fell into stiffness, and its divine soul received a strong impact in an instant; if someone could see the soul, they would find that at that moment, the Huo Jiu Yao Wang's divine soul was impacted by one-fifth out of its body.

Once the divine soul leaves the body, even if it shifts by a tiny bit, it will lead to the loss of control over the body.

The Huo Jiu Yao Wang was seriously injured and completely unprepared at this time; it was directly attacked by Lu Chengtong using the Treasure Mirror's Golden Core divine soul power to launch the 【Soul-Stealing and Soul-Seizing】 supernatural power, causing such an effective attack.

The moment the Demon King's soul left its body, Lu Chengtong flew out of the ground, used his own divine soul power to launch the 【Fractal Phantom】 supernatural power, and in the blink of an eye, transformed into more than a dozen clones, all launching the Opening Heaven Sword Technique.

In an instant, more than a dozen sword lights formed, and the Huo Jiu Yao Wang, having lost the ability to resist, could only passively bear the attack with its physical body.

It was already injured; if it had defended with all its might, it would have been fearless of this Foundation Establishment attack, but at this time, Lu Chengtong specifically attacked its wounds and vital points.

Especially the sword stabbed by the main body, which directly pierced the Huo Jiu Yao Wang's eye.

By the time the Demon King's soul returned to its body, the body was already dead.

A Demon Core flew out to escape; Lu Chengtong had long been prepared and immediately used a nearby clone to catch up and capture it in his hand.

Since he decided to take action, he had already thought it through carefully and could not leave any trouble behind.

A Demon Core that has left the body is just relying on the residual consciousness within to fly away; it is impossible to escape the obstruction of a Foundation Establishment cultivator who has long been prepared.

At the same time, inside the Treasure Mirror, a Golden Core Dao Fruit was born, precisely the 【Spring Breeze Turns to Rain】 Supernatural Power Dao Fruit from this Demon King.

Lu Chengtong did not dare to absorb it rashly; he had considered before that his body might not be able to bear the divine soul power of this level.

After the Treasure Mirror advanced to the early Golden Core divine soul, he had felt it; with his current physical body strength, carrying the divine soul power of the early Golden Core was already a bit strenuous, let alone this Dao Fruit containing the divine soul power of the middle Golden Core.

If he wanted to absorb it, he either had to raise his cultivation to the perfection of the Foundation Establishment realm or find a body-refining method to temper his body.

Now was not the time to think about this.

Lu Chengtong put away the Demon Core and Dao Fruit and began to perform the "Blood Refining Technique."

This is not a profound spell, just used to temper biological essence blood; some spells that require essence blood to be performed must be based on this method to refine essence blood before they can be released.

And if one wants to obtain the essence blood of other creatures besides oneself, one can only do so when the other party is dead and the divine soul has left the body; otherwise, there is divine soul power and blood fusion, and essence blood cannot be refined. Those who can directly seize the blood of living things are evil arts, and they are not something ordinary people can perform.

After obtaining the Demon King's essence blood, Lu Chengtong seized the time to cut off some important parts of the Demon King's body and put them into the storage bag, only to find that all the storage bags were full, so he had to leave.

The Demon King's body was too big; even if it was cut into small pieces, his storage bags couldn't hold it.

The specifications of storage bags are generally one zhang square, then two zhang square and five zhang square; but the last level of storage bags is not something Foundation Establishment disciples can come into contact with, and they are very expensive.

Lu Chengtong had more than a dozen storage bags, two of which were two zhang square, and the rest were one zhang square, tied inside his Dharma robe at his waist, and they were all full at this time.

The remaining tendons, bones, skin, and meat could not be taken away.

He could not stay any longer; the smell of blood would soon attract powerful monster beasts.

This time, being able to kill the Huo Jiu Yao Wang was entirely due to luck; confronting a Golden Core monster beast head-on would likely result in being killed, so he could not take this risk.

The goal was achieved, and he even had an unexpected Golden Core Dao Fruit and Golden Core Demon King essence blood; he had already made a huge profit.

Immortal cultivators avoid greed and provoking many causes and effects.

After he decided to leave, he immediately used the supernatural power to leave the Yunwu Mountain Range and then headed straight for the sect.

After returning to the sect, Lu Chengtong first went to register, then closed the cave, took out the Treasure Mirror, and triggered the 【Round Light Manifestation】 supernatural power with his Golden Core divine soul; in an instant, the image of a certain space-time that Lu Chengtong wanted to check appeared in the cave.

What he wanted to check was the image of the day Lu Xinyou was caught.

Now that it was basically determined that Sun Xiao was one of the masterminds behind the extermination of the Lu family, he continued to check if there were any other accomplices.

Because he already knew the exact time Lu Xinyou was caught, Lu Chengtong easily located the desired time period, and then the image in the picture began to move, soon arriving at Sun Xiao's Zhenjing Peak.

Under the Array Hall of Zhenjing Peak, there was actually an underground building; to be precise, it should be a palace in the mountain.

Arriving there, Sun Xiao first woke Lu Xinyou up and then began to interrogate him about the Supernatural Power Dao Fruit.

Lu Xinyou seemed to have expected this day, suddenly laughed, and was about to self-detonate.

This kind of bloodiness was simply inherited from Lu Wuzhen.

Unfortunately, he was unable to self-detonate successfully.

Sun Xiao seemed to have been prepared, instantly activating a certain array and sealing Lu Xinyou's spirit power.

And then he searched his soul.

I don't know what he discovered, but he just had a gloomy face, then destroyed Lu Xinyou's corpse, came to the side, activated a teleportation array, and disappeared.

Lu Chengtong frowned upon seeing this.

His supernatural power could only manifest the image of a specified space-time; he didn't know where this teleportation array had sent people, so naturally, he couldn't continue to check what Sun Xiao did after teleporting.

This clue of Lu Xinyou was broken, so he continued to check on others. ===== CHAPTER 44 =====
