First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!-Chapter 737: Breaking Through Begins, the Five Forbidden Inner Demons Appear
Outside New City, in the uninhabited zone.
Lu Ding found a scenic spot with clear waters and green mountains and directly initiated his cultivation breakthrough!!!
No nonsense.
He had brought enough resources with him.
He sat down, formed a hand seal.
Let's see how this goes.
He took out the ranked earthly treasures he had snatched from Dong Congyi from within the Red Coffin.
Tianzhi Leaf, ranked seventieth among the seventy-two earthly treasures;Ubiquitous Immortal, ranked sixty-seventh among the seventy-two earthly treasures;Kind Sun Bamboo Shoot, ranked sixty-fifth among the seventy-two earthly treasures.
A habit ingrained since childhood told Lu Ding.
Save the best for last.
He pushed the Kind Sun Bamboo Shoot to the side.
Then he picked up the palm-sized, translucent leaf, wrapped it around the white, spherical Ubiquitous Immortal that still had its root hairs.
Alright.
Just like wrapping barbecue.
He tossed it into his mouth.
Chew chew, crunch crunch.
Crisp, refreshing, tasty, but not much flavor, bland.
A warm current surged directly into his limbs and bones.
With a buzz.
Lu Ding felt his mind clear up.
Intense!
The medicinal potency was undeniably strong, but the taste... it wasn't even as good as that big radish, the Thousand-Year White.
Hand seals formed, lotuses bloomed.
An aura of profound mystery unfurled from Lu Ding's body.
Black smoke voluntarily gushed out from his apertures, staining the sky black. A fierce wind howled, the sky darkened and the earth grew dim.
Anyone unaware would think some great demon or fiend was being born.
Within Lu Ding's body, the Sin Dragon coiled across the vast sky, encircling the starry river, grasping stars in its claws.
With each breath, the Sin Dragon maintained synchronization with Lu Ding, watching as Spiritual Energy condensed into a thin mist, permeating the entire Inner Landscape, like a paradise on earth.
The earth churned, mountains rose and fell, rivers widened and narrowed.
With a dragon's roar.
'Ang!!!!!!'
Lu Ding's realm instantly broke through.
With a 'Boom', the sky cleared and the earth brightened.
Fourth Restriction Late Stage.
It didn't stop.
It soared all the way.
Externally, feeling the medicinal properties within his body being rapidly consumed.
Lu Ding took the Kind Sun Bamboo Shoot he had saved earlier and tossed it into his mouth.
A refreshing fragrance overflowed;he felt like he had become a panda.
As the medicinal energy of the Kind Sun Bamboo Shoot joined the battle.
Within the Inner Landscape, the [Golden Ao Island] slowly manifested, ethereal immortal music lingered, and the sounds of preaching the Dao were endless.
The progress from last time's improvement to the Sin Dragon Bone Seal was still stuck at the foundational stage, just the groundwork.
Now, Lu Ding was going to build a tall tower upon that perfect foundation.
With the help of [Heaven-Man Unity], and under the 100% physical compatibility of [White Snake Shakes Scales].
Lu Ding gained insights and understanding within the [Golden Ao Island].
What did he need?
Combat power, recovery power, endurance? Or functionality?
Lu Ding pondered in his heart.
"Absolute killing intent, harming others and harming oneself, great benefits, but also great drawbacks, won't learn it, won't learn it."
"What's the use of such high recovery? If you defeat others with a single lethal blow, then you won't get injured yourself. A skill for getting beaten up, won't learn it, won't learn it."
"Endurance? If it's already a one-hit kill, then it's about quick resolution. My time is precious, won't learn it, won't learn it."
"Functionality? My whole body, over a hundred spells and techniques, plus various wonderful methods, Anomalous Phenomena, what do I need so many functions for? Won't learn it, won't learn it."
The [Golden Ao Island] trembled.
For fuck's sake, you won't learn this, you won't learn that, you're quite hard to please. Here, here, take it all, research it yourself.
External time passed minute by minute, second by second.
Lu Ding was immersed in profound comprehension.
Watching the various auras intertwining and resonating on his body.
As Hai hour arrived, [Guarding Hai, Condensing Truth] automatically activated. Heaven and earth nourished him in return, all phenomena became clear and bright.
Lu Ding suddenly thought.
"Why must I be confined to traditional cultivation methods......."
Once this thought emerged, it instantly opened a door to a new world for him.
Whether it's science or metaphysics.
From nothing to something, from ancient times to the present, they all tell one principle, two words.
Evolution!
Once this idea appeared, it became uncontrollable.
Lu Ding mobilized the Spiritual Energy and medicinal power within his body, constantly stimulating the cells inside.
Of course, stimulating trillions of cells entirely was impossible;the medicinal power wasn't enough, and he still had to break through later.
So Lu Ding only selected ten thousand cells to be his experimental field.
Accelerate!!!
Evolve!!!
Of course, Lu Ding also understood that evolution without struggle is incomplete, evolution without a sense of crisis is imperfect.
He had [Heaven-Man Unity] to raise the upper limit, [White Snake Shakes Scales] to provide perfect body control, [Guarding Hai, Condensing Truth] to add buffs.
The coexistence of these three formed an absolutely stable triangle.
Under such circumstances, steady evolution was impossible.
A thought stirred.
Lu Ding just instinctively gave a slight lead.
He watched as the ten thousand cells rapidly evolving within his body started a brutal war of slaughter, devouring each other and seizing the heaven-and-earth medicinal power Lu Ding bestowed.
To make the battle progress faster, to quickly create distance between the cells.
Lu Ding sprinkled down his various techniques and spells.
If it was just hand-to-hand combat before, now, they possessed weapons.
Instantly, the intensity of the battle escalated to another level.
The medicinal power within his body was rapidly consumed.
Those bizarrely shaped cells gradually took form, becoming rough versions of Sin Dragons, overflowing with killing and sinful energy.
Externally, the storm-gathered dark clouds in the sky suddenly exploded.
A massive pillar of spiritual energy poured down from above Lu Ding's head, resonating with the cells within his body that were slaughtering, constantly evolving, growing, and echoing each other.
At this moment.
Lu Ding's realm rose.
This situation also, in another aspect, confirmed the feasibility of his idea!!!
Lu Ding spread his arms, forming hand seals to devour the heaven-and-earth spiritual energy like a whale, extracting the pure Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Marrow within his body.
Merging the two into one.
"Now is the time!!!!"
Thud!!!
A terrifying might erupted from his body, sweeping out like a force that crushes everything decaying.
The aura of Fifth Restriction cultivation was gestating.
Suddenly.
Heaven and earth darkened, pitch black where you couldn't see your own hand.
Lu Ding knew, it was time to meet an old friend again.
Gloomy Energy lurked within the darkness.
'Hey hey hey, I'm fucking here!!!!!!'
Compared to the muddled states of the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Restrictions.
The Fifth Restriction of the Five Decays of Heaven-Man, the inner demons born from not delighting in one's fundamental seat, were an epic-level enhancement of Gloomy Energy.
In the darkness.
Those figures once killed by Lu Ding stood tall, appearing all around him. There were demons, ghosts, spirits, and humans.
Familiar faces appeared before his eyes once more.
They pointed at Lu Ding, words of accusation spilling from their mouths.
"It's you!!!"
"It was you who killed me!"
"Lu Ding, you demon, you are inherently cruel and violent, you take pleasure in indiscriminate killing, you will die a horrible death!!"
"Lu Ding, I crawled out of hell to find you, have you dreamed of me?"
"Lu Ding......"
"Hahahahahahahahaha........"
Lu Ding's arrogant, unruly, utterly boundless laughter interrupted their accusations.
One by one, the so-called 'inner demons' stared at him with cold expressions, uttering the same words.
"What are you laughing at?"
Lu Ding waved his hand: "I used to look forward to it, I fantasized more than once about what my inner demons would be. I thought of many answers, but I never, ever imagined they would be so cliché, so old-fashioned."
"If I dared to kill them, I won't regret it."
"I've already killed them once. Do you think... I wouldn't dare to kill them a second time?"
