Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1160 - 562: The Primordial Talisman Sect Five Years Later, Immortal Destiny—Resonance of Ten Thousand Swords
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
Five years have elapsed.
The Void Realm now experiences the Black Dragon Sea Region's dominance.
As the concentration of Spiritual Qi continuously escalated within the Void Realm, the most dramatic transformations were observed not on land, but in the vast ocean. This phenomenon can be attributed to the overwhelming and innumerable population of Demon Beasts inhabiting the seas.
In the absence of human intervention, this led to a fervent evolutionary surge amongst a multitude of these Demon Beasts.
Astonishingly, in a remarkably brief span, numerous Tier Three, Tier Four, and even Tier Five Demon Beasts emerged.
These powerful beasts engaged in relentless mutual slaughter, consuming each other to fuel their evolution.
Projections indicated that the advent of Tier Six Demon Beasts was imminent.
Nevertheless, the sheer proliferation of Tier Five Demon Beasts had already precipitated significant turmoil for the islands situated within the Black Dragon Sea Region.
The human inhabitants of these islands frequently found themselves confronting formidable beast tides surging from the abyssal depths.
Over the preceding years, a considerable number of islands were utterly obliterated by these relentless beast tides.
Consequently, after enduring repeated assaults from these tides, humans could no longer sustain life on the ordinary islands and consequently congregated on the larger, more defensible landmasses.
Only through the consolidation of their strength and the unified efforts of all their people could they possibly withstand the ceaseless onslaughts from the Sea Beasts.
They stood like colossal reefs.
Regardless of how furiously the winds and waves battered against them, the reefs remained steadfast and unyielding.
Despite the severity of the beast tides in the Black Dragon Sea Region and the seemingly endless number of Demon Beasts, this locale undeniably represented a cultivation paradise for the disciples of the Primordial Talisman Sect.
This was due to the region's abundant cultivation resources.
Provided one hunted a sufficient quantity of Sea Beasts within this oceanic domain, an unending supply of Elixirs could be procured.
True Disciple Luo Wu was one such individual.
At this very moment, on a secluded, deserted island.
Boom~~
A terrifying torrent of Sword Qi erupted, numbering in the thousands, meticulously weaving into a dense Sword Net.
Anything ensnared by its reach was instantaneously annihilated.
Within the mere span of a breath, hundreds, even thousands, of Demon Beasts met their swift demise, their forms reduced to lifeless husks.
The ground became a canvas of flowing blood, and the air grew thick with its metallic scent.
Suspended in the sky, dozens of Flying Swords drifted serenely. Each possessed a terrifying sharpness, reminiscent of an Unparalleled Sword Cultivator who had weathered countless battles.
And the one orchestrating this deadly display was none other than True Disciple Luo Wu.
"Tsk tsk, your mastery of the Void Sword Scripture grows ever more formidable," a voice praised. "Even Tier Three Demon Beasts pose no challenge to you. Your innate talent for the sword is truly exceptional."
The speaker was the Artifact Spirit residing within the Celestial Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword. Originating from the Ancient Era, this artifact was one of Luo Wu's most significant fortuitous encounters and played a pivotal role in initiating his cultivation journey.
In the past, it was Luo Wu's exceptional sword talent that captured its attention, prompting it to accept him as its master.
As of the present day, Luo Wu had successfully ascended to the Golden Core stage, placing him on the cusp of the Nascent Soul realm.
This achievement was undeniably a testament to the cultivation talent of a genuine prodigy.
"There is still a considerable path ahead; I have only just reached the Golden Core Level in the Sword Dao," Luo Wu responded with characteristic humility.
He had learned from his master that he possessed a unique innate gift, an Immortal Destiny known as the Resonance of Ten Thousand Swords. This was considered the pinnacle of sword talent in the world.
With this extraordinary talent, he could resonate with various Treasure Swords, enabling him to wield them with effortless grace. More importantly, upon mastering these swords, he could absorb the accumulated cultivation and Sword Dao experiences of their previous wielders.
It was precisely this capability that had driven his continuous collection of different Flying Swords over the years, particularly those once wielded by renowned Sword Cultivators, all of which had found their way into his possession.
This process had exponentially accelerated his advancement in Sword Dao Cultivation, creating the illusion that he had immersed himself in arduous Sword Dao practices for millennia, akin to a seasoned Sword Cultivator.
In terms of combat prowess, among all the True Disciples, he stood within the top three.
To claim he was first, few would dare to dispute such a declaration.
After all, such was the formidable existence of a Sword Cultivator.
"But I've struck it incredibly rich this time; just imagine how many Tier Three Pure Yang Pills I can exchange for after taking down so many Tier Three Demon Beasts," Luo Wu mused with evident satisfaction.
He acknowledged his deficiency in nurturing Spirit Medicine, unlike his junior brother Mu Yuan, nor did he possess the talent for Alchemy that Shen Yanci commanded.
Following the conventional path, accumulation of significant wealth would have been an insurmountable challenge.
Fortunately, with the resurgence of spiritual energy and the profound global transformations, a vast number of Demon Beasts had rapidly proliferated.
This surge had led to widespread rampant activity by Demon Beasts throughout the Void Realm, their numbers seemingly endless.
Such scenarios are precisely what cultivators adept at combat, like himself, find most suitable.
Typically, defeating a Tier Three Demon Beast yields a substantial amount of Tier Three Pure Yang Pills.
This method proves over ten times more effective than cultivating Spirit Medicine or refining Elixirs.
Naturally, these demon beast hunting expeditions still carry immense risks.
A moment of carelessness when facing a High-tier Demon Beast could easily lead to one's demise.
However, he harbors no fear of danger; instead, he relishes the thrill of battle.
Consequently, a bit of peril means little to him.
More importantly, through these combat engagements, he hones his sword techniques and enhances his cultivation.
The rapid advancement of his cultivation can also be attributed to these life-or-death struggles against numerous Demon Beasts.
Had he remained within the Sect, cultivating in peace, his progress would likely not have been as swift.
"Having slain so many Tier Three Demon Beasts, their bodies still hold so much blood and flesh."
"At the very least, these can be exchanged for a thousand Tier Three Pure Yang Pills; this is a tremendous fortune."
"Still, this also owes a debt to the Sect's treasure, the Demon Refining Pot."
