Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 385 - 253: Locking the Demon_1
Chapter 385: Chapter 253: Locking the Demon_1
Time passed swiftly, and the years were unrelenting; in the blink of an eye, two thousand years had passed.
In the year 5723 of the Wan Dao Ji, on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, amidst the chilling cold of year’s end.
Within the abode of a True Monarch, Ye Fan opened his eyes, ending his deep cultivation session.
“How long have I been in seclusion?”
Muttering to himself, he posed the question.
Shortly thereafter, a spirit light flashed, and within it, a delicate figure faintly appeared, speaking to him in a clear voice, “Three years and seven months. You have five months left until your holiday ends.”
“Only three years?”
Ye Fan smiled, feeling quite sentimental, “Has there been any news from the Scholar’s Palace?”
“There have been no notifications from the Scholar’s Palace, but your friends True Monarch Nanyun and True Monarch Cang Lan have visited.”
“Oh?”
Ye Fan raised an eyebrow and then smiled, “Then send them a message that I’ve ended my seclusion.”
“Yes!”
The spirit light flashed and vanished into the void.
Ye Fan also rose to his feet, stepping out of the quiet room and into the spacious hall of his Cave Mansion, casually turning on the spirit crystal television.
Then he began to hear various broadcast voices…
“The ninth generation of the Heavenly Thunder Double Swords is shockingly launched. The Heavenly Craftsmanship Institute, Mingxiao Taoist Institute, and Shushan Sword Institute joined forces to create this masterpiece. Twenty-one True Monarchs from the three great Heavenly Master sects poured their efforts into it. A single sword ranks as supreme grade, and when combined, the pair reaches the highest grade. It’s the dream treasure for Sword Cultivators and Thunder Cultivators, the unparalleled choice for slaying demons and evil forces, and for cultivating couples…”
“The Divine Domain world officially opens the new dungeon—Blood Sea and Legion of Demons Catastrophe!”
“This dungeon recreates the chaos from the Blood Sea calamity, the turmoil that plagued the masses two thousand years ago. It nearly perfectly simulates the Blood Sea megascope formation, featuring the Nether River Blood God Child, Blood Demon Yuwen Shang, the Mysterious Heaven Ancient Immortal corpse, Blood Sea Group of Demons, and numerous other fiends for players to challenge. It is an essential practice ground before entering the three great Demon-locking Towers…”
“News from the Cycle Formation Institute, the recovery process of Mysterious Heaven Array Formation witnessed a historic breakthrough!”
“Mysterious Heaven Sect, as one of the Ten Great Immortal Sects of the Ancient Times, boasts the Seventh Rank Mysterious Heaven Array Formation, which is a highly esteemed Immortal Spirit array. It had been lost before the Spirit World Demon Catastrophe, but now with the historic breakthrough in the recovery process, it’s a sign that the array formation skill of our Wandao School is advancing from the Sixth Order to the Seventh…”
“News from the Heavenly Craftsmanship Institute, the refinement of the Immortal Artifact Five Elements True Spirit Map is completed and will soon be implanted as the new core into the Immortal Spirit Mech Armor White Jade Capital. It will also elevate White Jade Capital’s Artifact Level from two hundred and fifty million to five hundred million.”
“With the Immortal Artifact at its heart, the power of White Jade Capital will witness a comprehensive enhancement. The Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Tower in the Blood Sea Death Land will unlock the ninth layer, led by White Jade Capital and the main forces of the Scholar’s Palace for an assault. Meanwhile, the entry requirements for the eighth, seventh, and sixth layers will be lowered…”
“News from Yin Mountain Mansion, the former head of the Heavenly Craftsmanship Institute, Daoist Celestial Master, True Monarch Lanfeng Chu Nan, has officially become a Ghost God, taking the position of the ninth Palace Master of Yin Mountain Mansion, and the new ruler over the Underworld Yin Mountain Mansion’s Immortal Spirit Ghost God Mech Armor!”
“As the seventh head of the Heavenly Craftsmanship Institute, True Monarch Lanfeng made extraordinarily outstanding contributions, significantly advancing the technology of Heavenly Mechanics Methods and Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor. He is also the initial builder and maintainer of White Jade Capital, a good Cultivator of our Scholar’s Palace, our great Daoist companion. From now on, he will continue to shine brightly in his new position at Yin Mountain Mansion…”
“The newest Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, Five Elemental Spirit Venerable, commences construction. This Mech Armor will serve as the standard battle Mech for the Five Palaces of White Jade Capital and become an important part of the battle system of White Jade Capital…”
“The 5983rd Luotian Dajiao will begin in January; here are the names of the principal and deputy ritual masters…”
“Warmest congratulations to True Monarch Dongfeng of our institute, who passed the Wandao School professional title assessment and became the eighty-first Daoist Celestial Master of Wandao School!”
“According to the 1121st census of the Wandao School, as of the year 5723 of the Wan Dao Ji, the total population under the jurisdiction of our Wandao School reached nine trillion, eight hundred and thirty-one billion, with the number of Cultivators matching the total population. The grand vision of a righteous age where everyone has the potential of dragons has been realized.”
“Thanks to the fusion of two worlds, since the year 3722 of the Wan Dao Ji, the world’s Yuan Sprit power has significantly increased and noticeably revived. Combined with our Myriad Paths’ true teachings, we have now realized universal cultivation. Currently, there are two thousand seven hundred eighty-one Deity Transformation Venerables, three hundred and sixty-seven thousand eight hundred Great Nascent Soul Cultivators, and one billion Golden Core Cultivators…”
“The latest Demon Catastrophe report, a small-scale Demon Realm appeared in Ningzhou City, Dongning Province, stemming from a revival of ancient war remnants, a Heavenly Demon. It has been eradicated by the head of Dongning Academy’s Enforcement Department, True Monarch Chihuo, leading the Dongning Mech Battle Team.”
“The latest Evil Cultivators report, recently the Enforcement Cultivators of Azure Dragon School uncovered a plot by Demon Path Evil Cultivators to undermine public security, apprehending thirty-one Evil Cultivators, slaying seventy-five, and seizing numerous Demon skills and Demon Objects…”
“A reminder from the Wandao Righteous Path Propaganda Department: There are countless paths, but the Righteous Path comes first. Stray from the right way, and you harm others as well as yourself…”
“The 3450th Grand Wan Dao Ji Competition, Competition of the Chosen, will take place on the first day of January; the deadline for civilian registrations is…”
The spirit crystal television was cluttered with information from various channels broadcasting simultaneously.
However, this did not affect the viewing experience, as this was a playback mode designed for high-level Cultivators, allowing multi-channel reception and more efficient multitasking.
“Three years of seclusion, and the world has changed again!”
“Indeed, time flies; with each passing day, everything is ever-changing!”
Having received the information from various broadcasts, even as a renowned Nascent Soul Cultivator, a Daoist True Monarch, Ye Fan couldn’t help but express his amazement.
He still remembered two thousand years ago, when the two realms first converged during the time of Demon’s Mark and Sky’s Wound, he was just a minor Foundation Establishment Cultivator in those dark days. In the soul-stealing Mecha workshop, on the Magic Artifact production line, he contributed his part of the effort.
