Chapter 2552: Seventy Years Later

y strength wasn't greater than yours, I would have fallen at your hands by now. The victor takes all, there's no need for resentment." Lu Xia Tian shook his head and then looked at the elder with the...However, Lu Xia Tian had continuously slain many strong cultivators at the late stage of the Fusion Realm. Even powerful beings like Sanzian Corpse Ape and Dabi Eye Demon King who practiced either the Corpse Ghost Art or demonic techniques, 。After all, the creature on his body possessed a certain number of items required by human cultivators. Moreover, once it appeared, it was bound to be a rare treasure; ordinary spiritual creatures wouldn't catch this old monster's eye. 。

Powerful beings like the Three-Eyed Corpse Ape usually remain in the Demonic Corpse Ground. They only carry spirit crystals and other spiritual items when they go to trading hubs like the Ruins Market or engage in commerce with humans and demons.

I don't usually carry it because I don't need it. 。But what is carried, must be of the utmost value. 。Like the piece of gold and stone essence within the Samjiao corpse ape's Sumeru ring, it contains a large amount of gold-type and earth-type spiritual energy. 。The purity of its spiritual energy is not inferior to that of a high-grade spirit crystal. 。Lu Xia Tian's cultivation can directly absorb the spiritual energy within, which is enough to save a huge amount of spirit crystals. 。Lu Xia Tian came from the market, and the spiritual crystals he had accumulated in his hands were not something that could be consumed in three or five years. 。As for the spirit pills that Lu Xia Tian originally had in reserve, aside from some healing pills used to refine mana and cultivate, they were already completely depleted during his battle with the Shadow Scorpion King in the Endless Demon Sea. 。Even in a place like the Netherworld Cemetery, even with Lu Xia Tian's cultivation level, it would be extremely difficult to directly absorb spiritual energy from the void. To save time, he naturally had to absorb energy from spirit crystals and then refine them for his own use. 。Lu Xiaoxiao's main body had already cultivated to the bottleneck of the middle stage of integration, and he didn't need much more. The lotus avatar was newly promoted to the late stage of integration, and the spiritual power required exceeded that needed for cultivating the five elements Yuanci golden armor. 。As for the cultivation of the second dantian in the "Jiali Tian Zhuan Ling Shu" 。The later the cultivation, the more astonishing the consumption of spirit crystals becomes. 。Thinking of the lotus avatar cultivating within his body, Lu Xiaoteng suddenly had an idea. Since the lotus avatar could be an independent entity, it seemed that it could also cultivate the Jiatian Zhuanling Art, and cultivate a second dantian as well. 。In this way, the improvement in combat effectiveness of the lotus avatar is more than just a little. 。However, this thought had only just circled in his mind when Lu Xia Tian dismissed it. 。To forge the Nine Passes Lock is Qing Li, and Luo Qian, two ghost clans both intricately complex, taking a long time. 。And the mother-child pearl he used to refine the transmission formation's mother-child array eyes was equally impressive. 。As time passed, it became necessary to refine the materials needed for cultivation. There were three things: Sanjian Shiyuan (a type of corpse ape), the giant skeleton that Lu Xia Tian had previously killed, Tongxin Twelve Ghosts, Luo Qian, and Qing Li. At this time, they couldn't even finish using them all. 。Yu Ya gains more, and there is no worry. 。In contrast, Lu Xiaotien has no source of income at the moment and can only wait. 。The progress of this one's second dantian to its current state already consumes a shocking amount of energy, let alone cultivating this art with the lotus avatar. 。This inevitably added another massive expense. 。For Lu Xia Tian, it was impossible for the lotus avatar to delay his main body's cultivation. 。Moreover, the lotus avatar was even more powerful than its main body at this time. 。According to Lu Xia Tian's plan, the lotus avatar would cultivate its second Dantian only after dealing with Ye Qian Xin's crisis and leaving the Nether Demon Corpse Ground, and that too without affecting the main body. 。It took Lu Xia Tian almost seventy years to refine the Zi Mu Array Eyes for the transmission array with zǐmǔ yè. The spiritual power of the Dragon Vein Dark Crystals absorbed into his body has expanded several times over again. 。became a fist-sized sphere of energy. 。And on the surface of the orb of spiritual energy formed by the dragon-patterned dark crystal, faint threads, like hairline cracks or textures, began to spread outwards. 。Lu Xia Tian's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction. This was a sign that the Dragon Pattern Dark Crystal had absorbed a certain amount. 。Once these spiritual powers spread throughout the body like dragon scales, the task is complete. 。Although it still takes a while, compared to the time when he first absorbed the dragon scale dark crystal, at least Lu Xia Tian can see hope getting closer and closer. 。Seventy years is enough time for Lu Xia Tian to consume a large amount of spiritual objects, and his second dantian has grown stronger, but it's not too obvious. 。Prior to this, in order to deal with the Three-Headed Shenshi and the White-Eyed Ape King, Lu Xiaotian had used the Divine Devourer Array. His two deputy spirits were severely injured. Over the past seventy years, after being nourished by many pills that helped recover spiritual damage, they have almost fully recovered. 。However, compared to the other sub-spirit souls, these two sub-spirit souls are noticeably weaker. 。This shows how severely the Eclipse God Devours Demon Crossbow Formation wounds a primordial spirit. Even if an ordinary cultivator were to use this formation, their strength significantly reduced, they wouldn't be able to survive and escape such a dangerous place as the Corpse Land of Demonic Fiends. 。At this time, with a lotus flower incarnation present, in most situations, there's no need to deploy this killing formation anymore. 。Even demon spirits without a powerful post-merger stage 。When it comes to demon spirit souls, Lu Xiaoteng has these years begun to utilize the Soul Tempering technique to attempt merging with the soul of a Nascent Soul realm demon beast into the Soul Tempering. 。Although the strength of the fused monster's soul after refinement didn't see a significant increase, it was still a breakthrough for Lu Xia Tian. 。

In the past, Lu Xia Tian could barely merge the primordial spirits of two Nascent Soul demons. He couldn't refine their souls. Once he succeeded in refining them, Lu Xia Tian felt that he could try to merge the primordial spirits of three Nascent Soul demons.

As for the merging of ordinary demon souls, it is still at the level of Nine Fusion Souls. 。Since his last battle with the Four-Winged Mantis where he lost nine Rong Soul Beasts, Lu Xia Tian didn't merge a second one. Instead, he just kept familiarizing himself with the process. 。As his strength increased, the Nine Fusion Soul Beasts were no longer able to meet Lu Xiaoteng's requirements. 。After all, Lu Xia Tian is not just a mere physical cultivator. The enemies he faces have already surpassed the limits that a Nascent Soul mid-stage physical cultivator could achieve. 。Just like Lu Xiaoteng's illusionary divine powers, but if you really want to delve into it, the Rong Hun Divine Power is even stronger than his illusionary divine power. 。As for Yu Ya, after obtaining the Heaven Demon Soul Capturing Bell, her aura became even more profound and seemed to have become even more alluring. Occasionally, Lu Xiaottian glanced at her, especially when his gaze met the glimmer of azure blue in her eyes. If he didn't deliberately circulate his divine consciousness to resist, he would inevitably experience a brief lapse in awareness. 。Even before the Demon Soul Bell was fully unsealed, it already possessed such abilities. 。This heritage is truly not to be underestimated. 。The refining of the Nine Cauldrons Lock is also nearing completion. 。"At last, it's done." 。Master, you used to only take benefits and not payment. This time, you took all the payment. 。After Qingli finished refining the last Nine Que Lock, she rarely stretched her body and said: 。At last, Qing Li's heart felt a sense of relief after finally completing the task that Lu Xiao Tian had assigned her. 。There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. You think what your master teaches you is so easy to get 。Lu Xia Tian said in a neutral tone. 。s sword in his hand was still very faint and far from being realized. 。But the supreme sword intent was already impossible to ignore. 。That three-foot-long sword was insignificant compared to the imp...
