Cultivation Starts from Killing Pigs-Chapter 327 - 291: Secret Faction, Profound Yin Ablaze (Part 2)

Chapter 327: Chapter 291: Secret Faction, Profound Yin Ablaze (Part 2)

As he spoke, he suddenly smiled, "First it was Blood Vihara Temple, and then these guys. It seems no one thinks highly of our Divine Dynasty, well, less trouble for us."

"Let’s go, to Profound Yin Mountain first!"

...

The vast sea, with turbulent waves.

Profound Yin Mountain remained shrouded in dark clouds, lightning roared, and the sky was filled with restless evil aura.

To be honest, Profound Yin Mountain was isolated overseas, not within the Divine Land Barrier, but Pacifying the Three Mountains’ intention was not only to eliminate hidden dangers but also to explore and excavate the Ancient Battlefield.

Zhang Kui was most familiar with this place; the Divine Resentment Immortal Fiends were manageable, but the resentment from Immortal Gods on the Ancient Battlefield had transformed into nourishment for the "Eyes of Eternal Life."

Even more importantly, the mountain was full of strange Artifact Demons, and using Red Lotus Karma could refine Immortal Slave Silver Orbs.

Zhang Kui was now certain that these were indeed the crew used for operating and piloting the ancient starship, very useful indeed.

The crystal stones obtained from destroying the Stone Man Tomb to suppress the Battle Banner were enough to refine three more Golden Soul Suppressing Towers. The starship materials were also sufficient; though there were no Dragon Bone Dragon Pearls, it could still be refined into a formidable weapon on the Underworld battlefield.

To sweep through the Underworld, a single Dragon Bone Divine Boat was clearly not enough.

As usual, flying high over Profound Yin Mountain would attract countless celestial power threats, but Zhang Kui didn’t even activate the shield. Fatty Tiger let out a long roar, excitedly leaping high up, swallowing the celestial power one by one.

Zhang Kui smiled faintly, slowly landing the Dragon Bone Divine Boat halfway up the mountain. Sure enough, the entire mountain began to stir, with strange mechanical monsters resembling iron slags emerging everywhere.

These things were fanatical about the Dragon Bone Divine Boat. Last time, they had to leave in a hurry due to Chi Lin’s attack on the Divine Continent, but this time, Zhang Kui intended not to let any escape.

Watching the mountains swarming with peculiar creatures, the mountaintop shook as the giants the size of small mountains appeared, causing Yuan Huang and others to shake their heads.

"Hard to imagine that Yellow Turban Warriors were refined from this."

"Good timing!"

Zhang Kui laughed heartily, standing on the Dragon Ship, forming spells with his fingers and blowing fiercely. The power of the Original Karmic Fire immediately manifested.

This time, it was not just crimson karmic fire; countless Karmic Fire Red Lotuses blossomed within the flames, instantly igniting half the mountain.

A sudden snowstorm blew across the land and sea, starting to freeze with a cracking sound, chilling to the core, as if the soul was about to freeze.

The refining speed was quick; a large number of peculiar creatures turned to white ash, followed by flickering silver light as the well-prepared Artifact Demons gathered them from mid-air.

The demons carefully placed the silver orbs in wooden boxes, while Great Venerate Toad chuckled with joy.

Once the new Soul Suppressing Towers were refined, troops would surely be divided, and having fought bravely, he had obtained the position of captain. These were going to be treasures on the ship.

But Zhang Kui had other matters at hand.

With the strange Artifact Demons appearing all over the mountains, the Divine Resentment Immortal Fiends were also startled.

Though these were equally mindless, unlike the moths-to-a-flame Artifact Demons, they instinctively avoided the karmic fire, revealing their forms on the outskirts.

Yet Zhang Kui would not let them escape; the "Eyes of Eternal Life" on his forehead opened, and beams of Silent Extinction Black Light shot out, tearing them apart completely, stripping them of their immortal charm and divine principles.

The purpose of coming here today was to sweep away everything on Profound Yin Mountain, to prevent future disturbances.

The mountains shook, lightning and thunder roared, the crimson karmic fire consumed the mountains, while ice blades of snow filled the sky, as if the apocalypse had arrived.

For half a day, the mountain gradually quieted down. Zhang Kui put away the karmic fire, the once black Iron Mountain now turned white, with layers of ash from the burnt Artifact Demons mixed with ice and snow.

Yuan Huang shook his head slightly, "No wonder it’s ranked among the Three Mountains, with so many peculiarities. Without the Sect Leader’s Divine Fire, even in the Mahayana realm, one might be besieged to death."

"The more, the better!"

Great Venerate Toad laughed heartily, "Refining three hundred Immortal Slave Silver Orbs; it’s more than enough."

Zhang Kui nodded with a smile, his eyes spinning with Sun and Moon Light Wheels, carefully examining Profound Yin Mountain.

He hadn’t forgotten that one of the caves contained an ancient divine temple, an altar to the Evil God, and perhaps other things.

However, unexpectedly, although Profound Yin Mountain had many caves, most had been completely destroyed, becoming nests for the Artifact Demons.

No wonder, with such things, nothing would remain; that Evil God altar remained hidden in the Grotto Heaven, preserved due to the divine temple’s restrictions.

Then, Zhang Kui looked to the mountaintop, where the lightning was dense, a white fog obscured all sight, and the gathering of giant Artifact Demons clearly indicated something peculiar.

"Silly creature, come with me."

Zhang Kui called out, riding Fatty Tiger, soaring clouds and mist heading upwards.

The Celestial Pavilion’s demons remained at the foot of the mountain; the intensity of the celestial power was too much for them.

The higher they went, the denser the lightning.

Zhang Kui feared nothing; his body was strong, unaffected by the strikes, and any celestial power that came close was promptly swallowed by Fatty Tiger.

"Taoist..."

Fatty Tiger suddenly gazed ahead with longing, "Can I sleep here for two years?"

Zhang Kui laughed heartily,

"Let’s see."

He knew his strength was overwhelming, and though Fatty Tiger was lazy, there was a pent-up frustration, feeling like a burden, unable to be of any help.

Well, even if there was a Divine Artifact above, it should be left for Fatty Tiger to help him on his path.

In a blink, they reached the summit, and the scene ahead was peculiar, like a volcanic crater.

The surrounding Iron Mountain had completely turned silver, crackling with lightning, while the center, resembling a volcano, was densely packed with electricity forming a Thunder Pool; the sky’s Yin and Yang Two Qi clashed, dark clouds rolled ceaselessly, with bolts of lightning falling like raindrops into the Thunder Pool.

Buzzing!

The bell on Fatty Tiger’s neck suddenly flew out, landing on a silver magnet, instantly melting into iron water under the lightning.

That was the Demon-Exorcising Bell, originally given by Zhu Sheng to restrain Fatty Tiger, but had long become useless; Fatty Tiger kept it for habit.

Fatty Tiger was stunned, while Zhang Kui chuckled, "Celestial Thunder Heart-Slaying Lock, silly creature, it seems this is your place to ascend."

Fatty Tiger wrinkled his nose, "Taoist, you’re speaking too cryptically, I don’t understand, anyway, I’m sticking with you."

"Alright!"

Zhang Kui laughed heartily, "Let’s go, and see what treasures are hidden inside."

With that, Fatty Tiger leapt into the Thunder Pool carrying him.

Before them, a white brilliance, Zhang Kui’s hair stood on end, while Fatty Tiger was engulfed in lightning, his belly round, wobbling as he walked, wailed, "Taoist, I can’t take it, I’m feeling bloated, let me lay down for a while."

"Hmm... stay here then."

Zhang Kui nodded and proceeded alone, advancing amid the lightning, sensing something ahead.

A hundred meters ahead, the lightning became increasingly fierce; even with his physique, he began to crumble and regenerate.

Zhang Kui wasn’t alarmed but delighted.

Knowing full well the situation allowed for physical cultivation. Though only a half-step Immortal now, who would’ve thought there could be further progress?

As the Old Flood Dragon Demon had said, what if he couldn’t become an Immortal for the time being? The Original Karmic Fire and this Thunder Pool could continue to strengthen him, building up power; if an opportunity to become an Immortal arose, it could be even more explosive.

Thinking of this, he didn’t hurry, focusing on reconstructing his body with each step until the lightning became utterly ineffective.

The hundred-meter distance took three whole days, but Fatty Tiger’s communication reassured the outside demons, waiting patiently.

Three days later, Zhang Kui’s body had grown stronger by ten percent, and simultaneously, he saw what lay ahead.

A suspended hundred-meter bronze disc, intricately marked with array structures as fine as hair, making one’s head spin, and even divided into multiple layers of three-dimensional arrays.

A hole in the disc’s center held a floating sphere, half-silver, half-black, its material unknown but appearing as a Tai Chi Ball.

Yet this sphere had been cleft open by a sharp blade, with Yin and Yang energies surging skywards, invoking the surrounding cloud and lightning.

It’s no wonder...

Zhang Kui looked at the sky; something capable of summoning celestial power for tens of thousands of years and remaining from the Ancient Great War was undoubtedly extraordinary.

With this thought, Zhang Kui scrutinized the array on the bronze disc. Despite its complexity, his expertise in arrays was peerless, and gradually, he discerned its purpose.

Gathering Spirit... manipulating the Yin and Yang energies... continuous flow of Spiritual Qi...

Could this be the Starship Core?
