Chapter 513: Chapter 122: A Letter from Song Zhishu!

Zhou Xun’s mind stirred!

He slapped the blood bag with his hand, and Jia Yi transformed into a red light, flying out and hovering in front of Zhou Xun.

At this moment, Jia Yi’s aura was extremely strong, surrounded by layers of blood light,

and the black lines on his face were incredibly mysterious, seemingly containing some celestial truth.

Zhou Xun flicked his finger, and a cyan qi force struck Jia Yi’s arm,

"Ding!"

A clear and crisp sound followed immediately.

"Not bad, indeed it’s Tier Three High-Grade!" Zhou Xun was extremely satisfied.

This meant that the Blood Demon Child at this moment could independently deal with Late-Stage Core Formation Cultivators without being at a disadvantage.

This was an immense supplement to Zhou Xun’s combat power.

Moreover, Jia Yi’s advancement meant that his vision of five Tier Three High-Grade Blood Demon Children joining forces against an enemy was no longer a luxury,

but truly achievable.

"Perhaps before forming my Nascent Soul, I can possess combat power comparable to Nascent Soul Cultivators!"

Looking at Jia Yi in front of him, Zhou Xun smiled slightly.

With it, he left Celestial Talisman Island directly and arrived at a deserted island thousands of miles away.

He wanted to test Jia Yi’s true strength.

He slapped his waist,

and two beams of red and yellow spirit light flew out, confronting each other,

one transformed into a Spirit Beast with a tiger head and leopard body, with wings on its back—Zhou Xun’s mount, the Earth Element Beast.

And the other was the newly advanced Jia Yi.

Both were at Tier Three High-Grade Level, perfect for testing strength.

"Feng Chong, use your full strength, if you win, I’ll reward you with a Tier Three Middle-Grade Demon Beast Core!"

"Master, just watch!" Feng Chong looked at the Blood Demon Child opposite him, showing an eager expression.

As soon as he finished speaking, he flapped his wings, and two wind blades over ten yards long condensed in the air,

attacking the E Blood Demon Child opposite him.

"Roar roar!"

Seeing this, the Blood Demon Child roared, the horns on its head flashing with red light, and two blood-colored beams shot out, precisely hitting the two wind blades,

"Boom!" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

A violent explosion sounded,

and the spreading aftermath caused a fierce wind, lifting waves over ten yards high on the sea surface.

Soon after, the Earth Element Beast opened its mouth, yellow light flickered around Jia Yi, and earth walls appeared out of thin air,

trapping him inside instantly.

Jia Yi remained unpanicked, his body flickered with red light, revealing black mysterious lines,

and then stomped heavily!

"Boom!"

The earth walls couldn’t withstand the devastation, shattering instantly!

At this moment, a huge paw descended from the sky, striking Jia Yi heavily,

the just-freed Jia Yi like a cannonball, smashed into the beach, creating a pit over ten yards in size!

Seeing this, the Earth Element Beast’s form flashed, transforming into a beam of light, descending from the sky, stomping heavily on the Blood Demon Child.

At this moment, white light flashed on the Earth Element Beast,

as the long ropes formed by wind blades securely trapped the Blood Demon Child’s limbs, rendering him immobile!

Black runes appeared on the Blood Demon Child’s body surface, constantly resisting and wearing down the wind blade long rope.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun knew that the Blood Demon Child had ultimately fallen behind, and his testing goal was achieved, so he spoke to stop:

"Alright, that’s enough!"

Feng Chong nodded his massive head, and the wind blade long ropes disappeared instantly, then looked eagerly at Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun shook his head, flipped his hand, and an infant fist-sized, entirely yellow inner core appeared in his palm,

"For you!"

He said, tossing it towards the Earth Element Beast!

Feng Chong’s large mouth opened, swallowing it whole.

"The Earth Element Beast’s bloodline is extraordinary, its true combat power should be comparable to Peak Core Formation Cultivators,"

"Now it seems the Blood Demon Child’s strength should surpass the Celestial Feather Sect’s Grand Elder of those years, comparable to ordinary Late-Stage Cultivators!"

"For example, the Eastern Wilderness’s Yean Country First Cultivator, Master Fengyuan’s level!"

Zhou Xun was reassured, and then returned to his cave mansion on Celestial Talisman Island to continue closed-door training!

...

Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm,

After leaving the Celestial Profound Secret Realm, Zhou Xun’s main body returned to Tianhan City and also entered a secluded cultivation.

Every day, besides cultivation, was talisman making, refining puppets, and of course, body refinement techniques,

After years of constant practice, Zhou Xun estimated that in a few years, the Hundred Veins Body Refining Technique should advance to the Seventh Layer,

with the dominance of this Body Refining Technique, relying solely on physical strength, he might be able to confront Tier Three Middle-Grade Great Demons head-on.

Just like that, time began to pass day by day!

Two years later, in the cultivation room!

Zhou Xun sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed, in front of him was a jar about a foot in size,

inside was pale golden ointment,

which was blended from various precious spirit materials; this small jar exceeded sixty thousand spirit stones in value,

yet it could only supply him for five to six years of use.

His body was now coated with this ointment, his whole person in a pale golden color,

as he circulated the Seventh Layer of the "Hundred Veins Body Refining Technique" mantra.

Zhou Xun’s skin shimmered with pale golden light, as weak energy emanated from the ointment, then absorbed through his skin into his body.

As time passed, the ointment gradually lost its color, due to its essence being continuously absorbed.

Suddenly—

Zhou Xun’s physique seemed to reach a certain point, where quantitative change led to qualitative change,

abruptly elevating,

his whole person exuding pale golden light, which then slowly faded!

Zhou Xun’s body vaguely emitted a bronze glow, from the outside looking like a copper statue.

At this moment, Zhou Xun slowly opened his eyes and lightly shook, the now dried and gray ointment fell off, revealing white skin as smooth as jade,

making Zhou Xun’s demeanor even more transcendent, like an Exiled Immortal!

"Finally broke through to the Seventh Layer!"

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, this was equivalent to the physique of ordinary Tier Three Middle-Grade Demon Beasts.

Next, Zhou Xun slapped his waist and took out a Low-Grade Long Saber attack treasure, and didn’t know from which unlucky cultivator he got it from!

He slowly injected mana!

"Buzz!"

The long saber emitted a glow, Zhou Xun held the saber, lightly sliced towards his arm.

"Screech—"

A sharp metallic friction sound was heard, Zhou Xun’s arm remained unscathed.

Next, he swapped to a Middle-Grade cyan handleless flying sword,

activated it, and slowly stabbed towards his arm.

"Swish-hiss—"

Zhou Xun’s arm appeared with a shallow blood mark, as Zhou Xun increased the mana, it finally pierced an inch!

But soon, the wound visibly healed.

At most, in half a tea’s time, it could recover as if it was untouched!

"My physique now can deal directly with Low-Grade Magic, but if it’s Middle-Grade Magical Treasure, it might still be a bit tough!"

Test completed, Zhou Xun put away all his treasures and continued cultivation.

Another month passed, he had already reached ninety-five years old.

That day, as usual, Zhou Xun was drawing a talisman, suddenly a flame flew in, landed above the array, it was a Sound Transmission Talisman

Seeing this, Zhou Xun flicked his finger, and then continued drawing with the Talisman Pen.

Spirit light flew out, it struck the talisman, producing a very familiar and aged voice:

"Song Zhishu!"
