In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

Chapter 593: A Talented Person

"How can I ignore such an opportunity?"

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, then sat down cross-legged with his eyes closed. His face twitched slightly and a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind him.

It was Lu Yuan who used the Soul-Splitting Technique and used 30% of his spiritual power to condense a demonic soul.

"Even if I still can't get in, I can still get a glimpse of it."

Lu Yuan muttered to himself, then controlled the demon soul to flash towards the jade slip floating in the air, and after delaying on the surface of the jade slip for a while, he suddenly rushed in.

But at the moment when the evil soul entered the jade slip!

"hatred!"

An angry roar, accompanied by violent mental power, rushed straight towards Lu Yuan's soul.

Lu Yuan's face with his eyes closed moved, and in an instant a trace of pain appeared. Beads of sweat as big as beans appeared on his forehead and rolled down.

"hatred...!"

The second time, the anger subsided.

The pain on Lu Yuan's face slowly disappeared, but his soul was still affected by the unwillingness in the voice.

"hatred......"

The third voice was full of helplessness, as if one had already accepted his fate.

At this moment, a flash of light appeared on the jade slip in the air, and Lu Yuan's demon soul rushed out and flashed back into Lu Yuan's body.

"A man of natural talent, but unfortunately fate plays tricks on him." Lu Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged, let out a long sigh and slowly opened his eyes.

The Immortal Lord, the first demon lord after the Holy Ancestor, was actually not a native demon from the ancient demon world, but a descendant of a demon!

Although the three "hate"s were brief, they contained the life story of the Immortal Reverend. When they attacked Lu Yuan's soul, Lu Yuan learned all of them.

The Immortal Venerable was originally a descendant of a demon family. Because of his talent far exceeding that of ordinary people, he was trained by the family. Later, with the accumulation of resources by the family, he cultivated to the late stage of the Demon Sect in just over a thousand years.

It was at this time that he encountered the problem that all high-level demon cultivators would encounter. Due to his congenital physical defects, he was unable to make any further progress.

However, he did not accept his fate like others, but studied various skills diligently and created the Immortal Sutra.

However, this Immortal Scripture is extremely bloody, and its fundamental method is to strengthen oneself by devouring the souls and flesh and blood of cultivators of the same level.

When a cultivator's spirit and magical power far surpass those of his peers and reach a point where the current realm cannot bear it, they will split into two and condense an external incarnation.

This cycle repeats itself over and over again, and eventually several incarnations are forcibly merged again, breaking the shackles with absolute strength and advancing to the next level.

However, even though this is in the ancient demon world, this kind of behavior is still unacceptable to everyone.

Therefore, after the Immortal Venerable created this technique, he did not reveal any of it to the outside world. Instead, he left the family and wandered around in the ancient demon world, picking off those of the same level who were alone. In the end, he made up for his innate deficiencies with this method and successfully advanced to the Venerable position.

From then on, his ambition became even greater. He wanted to achieve the status of a holy ancestor through the Immortal Sutra.

However, it is extremely difficult to reach the Saint Ancestor realm. Let alone him being a demon, there are so many original ancient demons with outstanding talents in the ancient demon world, but only a small part of them, one billionth, can actually advance to the Saint Ancestor realm.

Even though he finally reached the late stage of Demon Lord through the Immortal Sutra and cultivated several incarnations of the same realm, there was a problem with the key fusion.

All along, he had been constantly devouring beings of the same level, and although his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, he had neglected the training of his physical body due to his excessive pursuit of realm.

So much so that when the fusion finally happened, his body could not withstand such powerful magic power at all, and the result of forced fusion would only cause him to explode and die.

But it was impossible to slowly temper his body at this time, because too many high-level demons disappeared or died inexplicably in those years, which had already attracted the attention of all parties. Especially the battle with the Yellow Sand Saint Ancestor, which completely exposed himself to everyone's vision.

After rejecting invitations from many forces, many people soon deduced the Immortal Venerable's cultivation method based on his solitary character and the strange fact that he was able to cultivate several incarnations just a few hundred years after the battle with the Yellow Sand Saint.

As a result, the Immortal Venerable was naturally retaliated by many forces. After all, all the demon lords he killed had many connections behind them.

However, since these people or forces coveted the skills of the Immortal Venerable, they did not announce it to the public. Instead, they gathered a group of high-level demon lords to encircle and suppress them secretly, and some saints even sent their incarnations to join in.

Under such circumstances, the situation of the Immortal Venerable can be imagined. He simply cannot stay somewhere and concentrate on strengthening his body. He can only hide here and there all day long to avoid being surrounded and attacked.

What's worse is that after several fights, those people got to know more and more about the Immortal Lord, making his subsequent escape very difficult.

The Immortal Venerable knew very well that if he continued like this, being captured alive was a matter of time, and his only way to survive was to advance to the position of Holy Ancestor as soon as possible.

Therefore, after some consideration, the Immortal Venerable thought of a solution that might be feasible.

That is to enter the forest and frost plain. Under the suppression of the power from another world, the magic power of his original body and incarnation can only be maintained at the level of the early stage of Demon Lord. If they merge under this circumstance, the physical body will no longer be in danger of exploding.

After that, he only needs to temper himself some more, and when he walks out of the frost plain again, it will be the day when he will be able to make a breakthrough and advance to the status of Saint Ancestor.

However, when he entered the deepest part of the forest and frost plain, he was hit hard again just when he thought he was about to succeed.

Although the physical body was successfully integrated, there was a problem with the soul.

When he was constantly devouring the souls and flesh and blood of other people, he had no time to concentrate on meditation and refine the remaining spiritual power in those people's souls.

These spiritual forces contain a person's various emotions, which have accumulated over the years and have long since become hidden dangers.

However, when the Immortal Venerable's magic power was strong, he could naturally suppress it easily, and separate it through continuous sacrifice of his external incarnation, so it did not affect him at all.

But after arriving at the Linhai Frost Plain, with most of his magic power suppressed, he forcibly merged his separated souls together. All those negative emotions burst out at once, and the Immortal Venerable could no longer suppress them.

As a result, his soul collapsed, his efforts failed, and he finally passed away in the frost on the forest...

Lu Yuan slowly stood up and looked at the jade slip in the air thoughtfully.

After a long time, he raised his hand and recalled the jade slip. The remaining spiritual power of the Immortal Venerable in the jade slip seemed to be liberated after the three words "hate" were uttered, and it disappeared from then on.

Therefore, after Lu Yuan immersed a trace of divine consciousness into it, he immediately took out a lot of things from it.

Magic stones, magic weapons, all kinds of materials and elixirs are available.

This also includes the heaven-defying martial arts method that allowed the Immortal Venerable to rise to power overnight, the Immortal Sutra.
