Two Worlds: Demonic Cultivator with His Zombie Materials-Chapter 77 - 76: Advancement

Cultivators defy the heavens in their cultivation, seizing the essence of all things in the world for their own benefit.

However, one must know the capacity of their vessel and how much it can truly hold.

Zheng Yi’s current rate of advancement, leaping from Qi Cultivation Third Layer to the brink of breaking through to Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer in just over half a year, is an exceedingly rare feat among other Demon Cultivators.

Yet, under the suppression of the golden seed within his Sea of Consciousness, Zheng Yi’s foundation is stable, surpassing even those sect disciples known for their solid foundations under the Righteous Sect.

The bloodthirsty Soul-Catching Banner inside him, despite its ferocious might, keeps the Yin Soldiers and Fierce Ghosts within it obedient, with no room for defiance.

Zheng Yi even feels that there are no hidden dangers within him; his foundation is solid, and he might break through at any moment.

Buzz!

Suddenly, a tremor came from inside Zheng Yi’s body, his face changed, and he swiftly wielded the Soul-Catching Banner to retract the Blood-clothed Female Ghost and Fierce Ghost Soldiers.

Without moving far, Zheng Yi’s figure appeared in a hidden room of a budget hotel.

As soon as he sat down, his face was enveloped in a thick layer of green aura, and the Cyan Profound Fiend within him began to surge, with over two-thirds of the evil qi transforming into Ink Spirit Evil.

It was no longer simply a dark green but had fully turned black, though still interspersed with faint flecks, making it appear less pure.

After devouring the soul power of the ghosts in the hospital, the evil qi within Zheng Yi further advanced, gradually evolving into the more powerful and terrifying form of Ink Fiend.

At this moment, his attention was completely focused on the situation inside him, with no interest in other matters.

Then, there was a sound of ’crack’ from within him, as if something shattered, breaking through a shackle, and his aura surged upward, directly breaking through to Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer.

Zheng Yi hadn’t anticipated such a quick and sudden breakthrough, as effortless as eating or drinking water.

This was mainly due to his comprehensive daily accumulation, consuming a large amount of resources stored within him, making the breakthrough easier than others’, flowing naturally like breaking through a bamboo.

Zheng Yi stretched out his hand, took out more than ten Low-Grade Spirit Stones from his Storage Pouch, sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and began to meditate.

As he cultivated, the Soul-Catching Banner hovered beside him, the dense black mist nearly obscuring his figure, providing defense and safeguarding his safety.

If any stranger were to step into this room right now, regardless of intent, they’d first face an overwhelming assault from the Yin Soldiers and Fierce Ghosts, and then the giant ghost claws of the Soul-Catching Banner’s Main Soul, the fanged Fierce Ghost, ready to gut them.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the last two Low-Grade Spirit Stones in Zheng Yi’s palm shattered, their spiritual energy fully consumed. Zheng Yi slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a foul breath, stabilizing his realm completely.

Using more than ten spirit stones, he stabilized his own spiritual power fluctuations, making Zheng Yi feel refreshed and invigorated.

He had finally broken through to Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer.

Unfortunately, the spiritual energy in the Doomsday World was thin, incomparable to Great Yi City Immortal Realm. Now, he could only barely rely on Low-Grade Spirit Stones for supplementation, but to thoroughly stabilize his realm, returning to Great Yi City Immortal Realm would be best.

"This is an unexpected gain!"

Zheng Yi didn’t anticipate such a breakthrough during the process of transforming his cultivation technique into Ink Spirit Evil, building up enough cultivation within himself to reach a bottleneck, resulting in this timely breakthrough.

Evidently, the foundation laid during this period was extremely solid.

This time, it was a success on multiple fronts, from the refinement of the Soul-Catching Banner, the enhancement of the cultivation technique’s evil qi, to the final realm advancement, achieving three goals with one action.

Pushing Doomsday World affairs aside, Zheng Yi was eager to return to Great Yi City Immortal Realm.

He needed some time to thoroughly consolidate his realm and cultivation.

...

Time flew quickly, and more than a month passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Zheng Yi completely stabilized in the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer’s realm.

With just one more step, he would reach the High Tier of Qi Cultivation, a realm once dreamt of by Zheng Yi as a Loose Cultivator in Profound Void City.

But now, it was all within reach.

This was no longer his current objective.

Meanwhile, in the Doomsday World, the Flesh Nest built in the central area of the settlement showed signs of activity. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

The Blood Bat Eggs within it had already begun to hatch.

Perhaps because zombie flesh differed from ordinary human flesh, or due to an endless supply of blood, the incubation time for the Blood Bats shortened by one-fifth.

In less than forty days, the first batch of Blood Bat Eggs had hatched, indicating that the incubation time differed due to varying rules in the two worlds.

As the creator, Zheng Yi stood atop, watching changes within the Flesh Nest.

In the flower-like Flesh Nest, Blood Bats the size of chicks struggled to emerge from the Blood Eggs piece by piece.

With blood-red skin, downy chests and backs, and outsized trembling wings, they clambered awkwardly within the Flesh Nest.

Zheng Yi’s brow slightly furrowed, noticing disparities from the Blood Bat Cultivation Secret Technique he obtained.

Perhaps due to zombie flesh, these newly-hatched Blood Bat chicks inherently exhibited a strong lust for flesh and blood.

Freshly hatched and only fist-sized, the Blood Bats displayed extreme aggressiveness, tearing at each other.

Zheng Yi watched as one chick-sized Blood Bat directly killed and devoured another nearly its size.

These bats incubated from zombie flesh seemed to have a natural ability to convert flesh into the purest blood essence.

With bottomless stomachs, they devoured whole peers akin to themselves.

After consuming its peer, the chick-sized Blood Bat ballooned to bowl-size, then attacked other peers.

This brutal separate and devour tactic greatly reduced the first batch of hatched Blood Bats, but Zheng Yi watched coldly, curious about what made bats reared from zombie flesh unique.

Mutual slaughter continued until only one mother bat and several bat kings remained.

Soon, over a hundred hatched Blood Bats dwindled to just three or five, astonishing the observing Zheng Yi.

"Could it be the zombie flesh, causing genetic mutation in these Blood Bats from Great Yi City Immortal Realm?"

In following the incubation secret technique’s steps, it never mentioned Blood Bats engaging in cannibalism.

It might be an anomaly with this batch of Blood Bats.

"Right! Could these bat chicks be inheriting the Zombie Bloodline?"
