Chapter 593 - 330: Another Breakthrough in the Eight-Nine Evil Technique! Profound Evil Ice Rock!
The Eight-Nine Evil Technique advanced from the 6th Realm to the 7th Realm, and his lifespan increased by over four thousand years.
Cultivation Level: Merging Realm (Flesh Body Dao Nineteenth Layer)
The cultivation level in the Merging Realm was about to reach its peak.
He needed to think about how to continue cultivating towards the next realm, the Creation Realm.
Due to the improvements from the Eight-Nine Evil Technique, his physical body became more agile.
The divine power of the Seventy-Two Transformations was mastered more thoroughly.
His transformations suddenly increased significantly.
He could not only transform into living things but also into dead objects.
When he activated the Eight-Nine Evil Technique, it responded to a mere thought.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was silently drawn by the power of the "Eight-Nine Evil Technique" into his right hand.
Subsequently, the flesh and blood of his right hand transformed into rock according to his thoughts.
Then, with another thought, his hand, now rock, shimmered with a golden light, transforming into gold.
Afterward, his right hand successively turned into a flame and then a five-finger ice sculpture.
With the Eight-Nine Evil Technique reaching the 7th Realm of Divine Transformation, it became capable of transformations among gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.
However, for now, he could only apply these changes to this small area of his hand.
When deepened, there would be no problem for his entire body to transform into a rock or become a spring.
’What a peculiar cultivation technique!’
Su Que sighed and then put away the "Eight-Nine Evil Technique."
Of course, the most formidable effect of the Seventy-Two Transformations’ divine power was still concealing fate.
As the Eight-Nine Evil Technique advanced to the 7th Realm of Divine Transformation, the effect of concealing fate also greatly improved.
However, he did not know the intensity of the "Destiny Communication" of the Bodhisattvas on Spirit Mountain, nor whether they could detect his use of the "Eight-Nine Evil Technique."
He wondered if the four great Bodhisattvas of Spirit Mountain could find his location.
Su Que pondered for a moment and then decided to continue cultivating.
Currently, his Karmic Force had been depleted.
He planned to wait for enough Karmic Force to accumulate before resuming cultivation of the Eight-Nine Evil Technique.
Now, he would first practice other techniques.
His gaze swept over to his attributes.
Before long, his gaze fixed on the Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill.
Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill (9th Realm Shocking 1%) [Top Grade Mortal Technique]
Although Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill was a top grade mortal technique, it had significant side effects and a relatively low realm.
Cultivating this technique should considerably extend his lifespan.
As such, after consuming a few more Celestial Medicines, Su Que continued his cultivation.
...
Su Que neither ate nor drank, and after three more days, he continued to sit cross-legged.
While cultivating the Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill, the Rakshasa Kui True Qi surged violently through his meridians, continuously stimulating his body.
The Rakshasa Kui True Qi was extremely fierce.
If an ordinary cultivator practiced it, although their strength would advance by leaps and bounds, their body would suffer hidden injuries under the True Qi.
After a few years, when the amount of True Qi accumulated to a certain level, the body would be unable to withstand it and die from the impact of the True Qi.
But Su Que was completely unafraid.
When cultivating the Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill, he could not feel the pain of the True Qi impacting his body.
Instead, his body was filled with a sense of comfort, as if soaking in a hot spring.
Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill (9th Realm Shocking 25%) [Top Grade Mortal Technique]
As he expected, the Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill advanced rapidly.
In an estimated ten more days, his Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill could advance again.
Su Que felt the medicinal power in his body depleting and was about to retrieve celestial medicine from his storage pouch when he suddenly sensed two auras approaching from outside.
’Who is it?’
In his heart, Su Que speculated about the identity of the visitors.
After all, he had been here for some time, and it was his first time having visitors.
...
"Huang, the scenery here is nice, the spiritual energy is abundant; why not establish a cave mansion here?"
In the sky two miles away from Li Xue Mountain, a fair and slender woman spoke to the man beside her.
The man beside the woman was dressed in green, with handsome features and hair tied into a bun, with two locks cascading down his forehead, looking very suave and debonair.
"I sense the spiritual energy seems to be more abundant ahead; let’s go check it out first."
The man said to the woman next to him.
This couple were Dao companions.
The man was named Zhuang Huang, and the woman Shi Wan.
They had cultivated for a long time in a city in the unclaimed land, later becoming Dao companions, and wanted to find a place rich in spiritual energy yet sparsely populated to establish a cave mansion as their cultivation place.
Shi Wan nodded slightly, then followed Zhuang Huang, as they both floated towards Su Que’s snow mountain.
Sitting cross-legged in the cave, Su Que put away the Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill and frowned slightly.
Given the direction from which these two auras were flying, it would not take long for them to pass through the fog and discover this snow mountain.
There was a chance that these two auras were coming to explore this mystical snow mountain.
’Forget it, let’s avoid them for now.’
Thinking this, Su Que used the Eight-Nine Evil Technique to conceal his aura and slipped out of the cave.
This snow mountain only benefited those cultivating using Karmic Force.
While ordinary cultivators would find it harmful to cultivate here.
’Once they realize there’s nothing here, they should leave,’ Su Que thought to himself.
After all, he wasn’t a murderer.
He wouldn’t kill just because two cultivators disturbed him.
After slipping out of the cave, Su Que circled around to the back of the snow mountain.
He sat down in a hollow at the snow mountain’s back.
In his body, some Karmic Force had accumulated.
Using this Karmic Force, he continued to cultivate the Eight-Nine Evil Technique while also keeping an eye on the two auras.
Before long, the two auras arrived.
Zhuang Huang and Shi Wan also saw this snow mountain.
Upon seeing this snow mountain, they both simultaneously showed looks of astonishment.
"Huang, this seems to be..."
Zhuang Huang nodded, his figure moving as he swept in front of the snow mountain.
He reached out his hand to touch the rock of the snow mountain.
"It’s indeed the legendary ’Profound Evil Ice Rock!’"
Zhuang Huang exclaimed excitedly.
Su Que had excellent hearing; even in the back mountain, he heard their conversation clearly.
Upon hearing the term "Profound Evil Ice Rock," a memory from a Spirit Mountain Arhat in Su Que’s mind was immediately activated.
That Arhat had heard of this kind of rock but had never seen it before.
Su Que continued listening as the man’s voice spoke.
While stroking the snow mountain’s rock wall, Zhuang Huang said to Shi Wan:
"The power within this rock is quite harmful to cultivators."
Shi Wan nodded: "I feel a bit uncomfortable, and my mana seems to have stagnated."
Zhuang Huang withdrew his hand. After touching the rock for a while, even his hand went numb.
"Indeed, because this rock is harmful to cultivators, if we add other metals to seal its power..."
"Once we activate the mana to release the power, we can control other cultivators."
"This rock can be used to refine magical artifacts and create talismans."
"The rock powder can also be mixed with other powders to create talismans."
Zhuang Huang explained the uses of the rock to Shi Wan.
"Moreover, the entire snow mountain is made of ’Profound Evil Ice Rock!’"
As Zhuang Huang spoke, his eyes lit up.
Listening to Zhuang Huang, Shi Wan’s beguiling eyes also sparkled.
"Huang, if we trade for other magical artifacts using this rock, will it fetch a high price?"
She asked Zhuang Huang.
Zhuang Huang thought for a moment and said: "Indeed, but this rock is very useful to us."
"We will use most of the rock for refining magical artifacts and making talismans to serve as our lifesaving means in the future."
"A small portion will be sold in various parts of the unclaimed land, all so as not to attract attention."
"That would be best," Shi Wan nodded, agreeing with Zhuang Huang’s decision.
Immediately, this pair of Dao companions began planning to establish a cave mansion on a mountain peak away from this snow mountain.
Then, they would extract the rock from this snow mountain to refine magical artifacts and make talismans...
In the back mountain, Su Que sighed while listening to their plans for the future.
Then, he activated the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique, and his Lifebound Demon Seed shone brightly.
Waves of the power of Demon Technique surged like tides.
Simultaneously, he activated the Demon Blade Heart Method.
The demonic aura was immediately intensified by the Demon Blade Heart Method, becoming even more oppressive.
The Dao couple sensed this aura and their faces changed immediately.
