Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1079 - 524: The Anger of the Aberrations, Fate Shifts Again_2
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
"Destiny Tip Three: Luckily, these ancient demons struggle to fully revive. When they resurrect, celestial punishment strikes, delivering backlash from the Void Realm's Heavenly Dao.
Yet, aided by mysterious forces and absent any external intervention, these ancient demons will triumph over the celestial punishment. Striking at that moment, however, could let you seize them all in one strike—the window opens one year from now. Hence, prepare over the next year; the perfect timing often delivers superior results."
Feeling this message, Jiang Fan rubbed his chin.
He never thought the destiny tips would arrive so consecutively.
He had been mulling over methods to cleanse the Primordial Ruins demons.
After all, cleansing the Primordial Ruins demons represents a colossal undertaking.
Yet now, it looked like he wouldn't need to lift a finger.
Those mysterious forces would provide the assistance.
He merely had to ride the tide.
"Does that mean waiting a whole year?"
"Fine then, I'll use this interval to propel the Soaring Snake Technique ahead."
Jiang Fan's silhouette flickered before he rapidly departed the vicinity.
Still, he remained inside the Primordial Ruins.
He chose to conceal himself temporarily atop a nondescript peak in Secret Realm No. 5.
He feared that venturing out might trigger unforeseen shifts.
Destiny's course forever twists and turns.
Boom~~
Having picked his seclusion site, Jiang Fan launched into closed-door cultivation without delay.
He set the Soaring Snake Technique into motion inside himself.
His plentiful Qi and Blood Power coiled like a soaring snake, surging through his frame.
He ran circulation upon circulation.
Every loop bolstered the Qi and Blood surging within him.
"The Soaring Snake Technique's Void Refining Chapter boils down to the Blood Replacement Chapter."
"Reaching Perfection in this Chapter demands fusing ten thousand Soaring Serpent Runes."
"That said, for Tier Six Early Stage Perfection, I must embed 3333 Soaring Serpent Runes profoundly into my blood."
"Only then will Tier Six Middle Stage breakthrough occur."
Seated cross-legged upon the earth, Jiang Fan probed the Void Refining Chapter's myriad secrets within the Soaring Snake Technique.
Frankly, this Chapter's cultivation posed immense difficulty.
Inscribing Soaring Serpent Runes into the blood proved no simple matter.
The tiniest error might vaporize the blood, inflicting dire wounds upon the flesh.
Each Soaring Serpent Rune inscription required utter flawlessness.
One botched attempt squandered vast stretches of time.
Thus, True Spirit Technique progress after Sixth Tier entry turned brutally demanding.
Stagnation spanning hundreds or thousands of years without breakthrough stood as utterly routine.
Such delays were par for the course.
"Effortless Soaring Serpent Rune inscription hinges on formidable Power of Divine Sense."
"A potent Power of Divine Sense renders rune inscription far smoother."
"Thankfully, my divine sense already rivals an Integration Cultivator's."
"This task poses no challenge for me."
Jiang Fan keenly sensed every filament of Qi and Blood in his body, confirming he could inscribe Soaring Serpent Runes into his blood with minimal Power of Divine Sense drain.
A typical Void Refining Cultivator inscribing even one Soaring Serpent Rune would exhaust their divine sense entirely.
Recovery thereafter demanded excruciatingly lengthy periods.
"The Earth Core Soul Tempering Pill's aid will surely hasten Soaring Snake Technique cultivation."
"In under a year—perhaps much sooner—I might attain Tier Six Middle Stage."
Jiang Fan gauged his ongoing Soaring Snake Technique cultivation advancement.
Truthfully, he had practiced the Soaring Snake Technique for a stretch, already merging numerous Soaring Serpent Runes into his blood.
Absent the Earth Core Soul Tempering Pill, however, his progress crawled at a snail's pace.
This windfall now spared him endless toil in cultivation.
Boom~~
Wordlessly, Jiang Fan swallowed an Earth Core Soul Tempering Pill at once.
He refined the precious pill instantly, converting it into surging torrents of energy.
Earth-core flames seemed to rend his body asunder.
Profound Life Energy saturated every inch of his form.
His Qi and Blood Power swelled visibly to the eye.
In that instant, Jiang Fan realized blood Soaring Serpent Rune inscription had grown markedly simpler.
Soaring Serpent Runes emerged successively in his blood's depths.
He dove headlong into rigorous Soaring Snake Technique cultivation.
Utterly oblivious to outer world occurrences.
...
Elsewhere in the Void Realm.
Countless mysterious forces roused themselves.
"What's happening? Why are revived demons vanishing one after another lately?"
"First came the demise of the Blood-eating Fish Demon and Shadow Fish Demon."
"Now the Six-winged Tiger Demon has vanished too."
"Who dares stand against us?!"
One mysterious force seethed with unrestrained fury.
They had shelled out dearly, burning through essence to resurrect these demons.
Regaining that lost essence? An eternity's wait loomed unknown.
Useful demons would justify it, but these yielded zero results.
Their labors rang utterly hollow.
Shadowy opposition seemed bent on foiling their schemes and moves.
Delivering setback after setback.
"Child of Destiny—it has to be the Void Realm's Child of Destiny."
"No other figure comes to mind."
"Regrettably, that one's traces elude us entirely now."
"We lack the means to confront him even if we wished."
Another mysterious force vented bitter helplessness.
The Void Realm's Heavenly Dao confined them here, barring escape.
Pinpointing the Void Realm's Child of Destiny bordered on impossible.
Despite recognizing him as their ultimate foe, their nemesis, locating or striking him proved beyond reach—stoking their rage to new heights.
Not even Ancient Era woes matched this exasperation.
"Very well, no more restraint."
"Channel extra power to revive hordes of demons all at once."
"I refuse to credit the Void Realm's Child of Destiny with halting such a mass revival."
"Demons loose upon the Void Realm will hasten its collapse."
The mysterious forces conferred intensely.
Utter wrath consumed them.
Prolonged this way, total plan collapse loomed possible.
Inevitable retribution would follow.
Thus, success demanded any price.
Any saboteurs merited death.
Boom~~
Abruptly, dread and baleful power erupted from them, shrouding the entire Void Realm.
Demonic qi across the Void Realm surged manifold.
Myriad sealed ancient demons throughout the Void Realm drank in floods of colossal energy.
Vitality stirred gradually within their forms.
Even demons not fully slain reclaimed flickers of vitality.
Unfathomable upheavals gripped the entire Void Realm.
Demon might swelled unchecked, unnoticed by all.
Most intensely within the Primordial Ruins.
As one of the Nine Great Secret Realm Worlds, innumerate demon and monster carcasses lay entombed deep in each Secret Realm World, pollution founts perpetually disgorging demonic qi to befoul the Primordial Ruins.
A vast refuse pit.
Corrupting not merely these Secret Realm Worlds' skies but their very earth.
Primordial Ruins' regenerative prowess rendered purification all but unattainable.
Mysterious force seepage, however, sparked revival among Primordial Ruins demons.
They voraciously devoured power from every demon and monster corpse across the Primordial Ruins.
Colossal demon eggs proliferated everywhere in the Primordial Ruins.
As if ancient demons gestated within.
