Imperial Cultivation-Chapter 1003 - 999: Second Technique

Leng Tieya showed a smile.

Unexpectedly, the Soul Blade was so effective, it could actually damage this pattern.

The shadow of the Fierce Beast above the Void faded slightly.

This shadow of the Fierce Beast, compared to the Qing Beast shadow above the valley stronghold of the Ghost Bone Sect, was similar in size.

The importance of this place might not be less than that of the valley stronghold.

Leng Tieya frowned.

The shadow of the Fierce Beast had only faded slightly, not dissipated.

It seems all the patterns must be eliminated?

He activated the Soul Blade again; after damaging two patterns, he felt mentally exhausted.

The Soul Blade consumes too much spiritual power.

This time he did not let the main body and Chu Liezhao help.

He took out a Spirit Replenishing Pill from his chest, threw it into his mouth, and moments later, a continuous stream of medicinal power turned into a refreshing energy, pouring into his brain.

Invigorated, once again full of vitality.

Then he activated the Soul Blade again, repeatedly destroying the patterns.

When his spiritual power was exhausted again, he swallowed another Spirit Replenishing Pill and activated it again.

The further he went, the harder it became to break the patterns, as if part of the power of the previous patterns had gathered in the latter ones.

By the time he completely removed these patterns, he had swallowed five Spirit Replenishing Pills.

He reported to Zhou Jiangming that he had exhausted five Spirit Replenishing Pills to finally eliminate the patterns.

Zhou Jiangming praised him with a couple of sentences, saying being able to master the Soul Blade so quickly was indeed impressive.

Spirit Replenishing Pills are not considered valuable Spiritual Medicine for the Great Heavenly Demon Palace; they can be replenished directly without Merit exchange.

The fragrance of the Ghost Bone Flower grew stronger, as the cave opened, the fragrance diffused outward, spreading outside.

Leng Tieya noticed something unusual.

Wild beasts began gathering here, not just the cat and leopard types that could climb like walking on flat ground, but also birds of prey.

Two leopard types had already entered the cave, just as they were about to pounce on the Ghost Bone Flower, they suddenly collapsed as if drunk.

Leng Tieya shook his head.

The Ghost Bone Flower is useful for replenishing spirit, but these beasts cannot withstand it, as if they are drunk.

He first sealed the cave entrance to prevent the fragrance from spreading and to keep these wild beasts from breaking in again.

Then, he moved his palms, creating a gust of wind that swept the fragrance away.

In the blink of an eye, the surrounding fragrance disappeared completely.

The surrounding beasts dispersed.

Leng Tieya looked grave.

This Ghost Bone Sect is more formidable than he imagined, if not nurtured within the head, he would definitely not resist picking a few flowers for consumption.

Truly a top-notch Spiritual Medicine.

After the death of six Ghost Bone Sect disciples, there was no more movement around; Leng Tieya seized the opportunity to practice the Nine Solutions of Heavenly Demon.

The Nine Solutions of Heavenly Demon lead to rebirth, constantly strengthening oneself, having an uncanny likeness to the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.

However, when the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record is practiced to the First Form, it grants Divine Skills that are worlds apart, leaving the Nine Solutions of Heavenly Demon somewhat inferior.

He pondered over whether to let his clone also practice the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.

After a while, he restrained his impulse.

The power of the Spiritual Abyss and the power of the Demon Abyss are ultimately different, potentially conflicting or even counteracting each other.

Practicing the Nine Solutions of Heavenly Demon easily makes one lose track of time; unknowingly, a whole day passed.

Midway, Chu Zhiyuan brought some food over.

... Chu Zhiyuan felt that he was now not the main body but more like a clone.

With one step, he crossed over to deliver the food and drinks, and with another step, he returned to the Demon Suppression Divine Palace.

He continued cultivating the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record Second Form.

Chu Zhiyuan now appeared on the second mountain peak, more majestic and vast compared to the first peak.

The aura of the Spiritual Abyss was also growing stronger.

The Second Form focuses on the palms.

After assuming a peculiar pose, the aura of the Spiritual Abyss continuously drilled into his palms, starting to surge in the Lao Palace, expanding and hollowing out the Lao Palace.

He could feel that the Void was becoming more closely connected to him; the air was becoming viscous.

But as his palms moved, they were extremely smooth, as if an invisible force was guiding the movement of his palms.

This feeling of being both heavy and smooth was so peculiar, he couldn’t extricate himself, wishing he could keep moving his palms and practicing.

He practiced for a while on the Second Spirit Peak before returning to the Demon Suppression Divine Palace to cultivate.

The aura of the Demon Suppression Divine Palace made his cultivation speed faster, remarkably strange.

However, the progress of cultivating the Second Form of the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record was still slow, requiring a lot of time.

He currently could not stay in the Demon Suppression Divine Palace all the time; he still had to return to the Prince Qing Mansion in Little Outer Heaven.

In the evening, he would return to the Prince Qing Mansion to sleep and rest, have meals with his parents and sister, then return to the Demon Suppression Divine Palace to cultivate.

Life was simple and regular.

Chu Liezhao’s side was the same, cultivating, fishing, or frolicking with Li Miaotan, enjoying the pleasures of the boudoir.

Only Leng Tieya’s side was constantly venturing and striving upwards.

As he practiced the Nine Solutions of Heavenly Demon, he raised an eyebrow.

The Flying Knife hidden outside the valley had already sent a message, the Ghost Bone Sect should have received the news, dispatching twelve experts charging ferociously.

Leng Tieya’s spirit was lifted.

A day had already passed before receiving the message, the reaction was too slow.

This remnant of the Ghost Bone Sect still seemed arrogant, completely lacking vigilance.

They likely hadn’t noticed they were already being watched by the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, not realizing the danger.

This level of alertness also made it no wonder the Great Heavenly Demon Palace looked down on them.

As he practiced the Nine Solutions of Heavenly Demon, Zhou Jiangming’s voice came from his ear.

Zhou Jiangming told him that thirty-six Outer Palace Disciples of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace had already been dispatched, coming to join forces.

The remaining one hundred and six disciples had already gone to that Ghost Bone Sect stronghold.

They were responsible for attracting more Ghost Bone Sect experts to come, to eliminate them, and reduce pressure there.

Leng Tieya readily agreed.

...

Morning

The morning light spilled over the mountains, mist shrouded the fields.

As Leng Tieya was practicing the Nine Solutions of Heavenly Demon in a forest, he suddenly stopped, floated up, and leapt to the mountain peak.

The Outer Palace Disciples of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace had arrived at the mountain peak ahead of him.

The leader was Vice Manager Zhu Qingzhi of the Outer Palace.

Seeing Leng Tieya appear on the mountain peak, she waved to have the disciples hide their aura and conceal their whereabouts.

She approached Leng Tieya alone with a refreshing aura, standing on a rock.

A purple robe wrapped her ample figure, her eyes affectionate and enchanting.

She laughed lightly, "Cold Nephew indeed extraordinary, taking on this important task just after entering the palace."

Leng Tieya clasped his fists and smiled, "Vice Manager, it was a coincidence that I stumbled upon this place and reported it to the higher-ups."

Zhu Qingzhi realized and couldn’t help but praise, "So you’re the one who discovered this Secret Land." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Leng Tieya laughed, "Vice Manager, there will be more Ghost Bone Sect experts coming, we just need to eliminate them without letting them enter the cave."

He pointed to the opposite cave, "It’s best that our disciples don’t go in either."

Zhu Qingzhi surveyed the mountain peak and nodded lightly, "Hmm, the tricks of the Ghost Bone Sect are indeed hard to guard against, what trickery is inside that cave?"

Leng Tieya trusted her as Vice Manager, so he explained the situation inside.

Zhu Qingzhi’s smile disappeared and she became serious, "This Ghost Bone Sect truly deserves death!"

Leng Tieya said, "Once that thing is damaged, we’ll all be in trouble. The Ghost Bone Sect experts, seeing the situation is bad, will definitely rush in recklessly."

"I’ll personally guard outside." Zhu Qingzhi said with a humph.

Leng Tieya smiled, "With the Vice Manager guarding, I’ll take the last stand."

"Okay." Zhu Qingzhi smiled, "You’re stronger than me."

She, as Vice Manager, was also part of the Great Heavenly Demon, but of the Ninth Grade.

It was precisely because she felt Leng Tieya’s rapid progress that she was so amiable to him.

Leng Tieya clasped his fists and smiled, "Vice Manager flatters, these guys aren’t worth your effort."

As they spoke, twelve figures shot from a distance.

Leng Tieya made a gesture.

Zhu Qingzhi nodded and waved her jade hand.

The thirty-six disciples of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace hidden in the dark took action, ambushing the twelve Ghost Bone Sect experts.

In the blink of an eye, four of the twelve Ghost Bone Sect experts were taken down.

The remaining eight were in imminent danger.

Leng Tieya frowned and reminded, "Be careful not to let them crush the beads they carry."
