Martial Arts Immortal

Phew~

Huhu~~

In the invisible space, the extremely rich demonic energy, that is, the power of evil, set off waves of terrifying gusts of wind.

Sweeping and whizzing away in all directions.

Creepy and terrifying roars kept coming from the darkness.

This is a world without light, this is a dark world, this is a world like hell with no future.

Everything is filled with dead silence, weirdness, and terror.

Here, there are no seasons.

Can't feel the passage of time.

At this time.

A figure with an unattractive appearance had a solemn expression, and his vigilance was raised to the extreme.

He only held the long knife in his right hand, and the true energy in his body surged, coming from the light on the other side and walking into the dark world.

"Huh?"

Lin Zheyu was shocked.

He raised his head and looked around. As far as he could see, the dark world in the eyes of ordinary people was actually extremely clear in his eyes.

It's just a little worse than in the outside world.

The vision is equivalent to about one-third of what it would be in the outside world without being disturbed by demonic energy.

But this is also extremely amazing!

"When the body becomes stronger, does it bring about a transformation in perception?"

Lin Zheyu thought.

As soon as he entered the Demon God's Barrier, Lin Zheyu did not go deep into it immediately. Instead, he stood at the junction and confirmed that there was no danger hidden inside before continuing deeper.

As soon as he entered the demonic realm, Lin Zheyu discovered something unusual.

Compared with the last time he sneaked into the Demon God's Barrier, the pressure he felt this time was much weaker, less than one-tenth of what he felt before.

The field of vision that can be seen has also been amazingly improved. In the past, he could only see objects within a radius of less than a hundred meters, but now he was only slightly suppressed.

A thought came to mind.

The field of perception is rapidly expanding.

Lin Zheyu found that the restrictions on the field of perception had also been reduced.

"hiss--"

Suddenly, Lin Zheyu frowned slightly and twitched the corners of his mouth.

This space-time node has existed for more than two years, and the concentration of demonic energy inside is not comparable to the demonic enchantment that Lin Zheyu entered before.

He had just tried to release his spiritual consciousness, but he suddenly felt a bone-chilling coldness that could freeze one's soul.

"Without the protection of divine power crystals, it is indeed impossible to use spiritual consciousness here." Lin Zheyu shook his head slightly.

He had already heard about the effects of divine power crystals.

The mysterious energy contained in the crystallization of divine power can reduce or even eliminate the impact of evil energy.

It allows immortal cultivators to display their strength unscrupulously in the demonic realm full of demonic energy without worrying about the erosion of the demonic energy.

It's a pity that Lin Zheyu didn't find a way to use the divine power crystal.

The method of using this special energy seems to be known to everyone. No one sells it in the market, and there are no relevant records in the books.

Lin Zheyu tried to make some innuendoes and pry from other people's mouths, which immediately aroused the vigilance of others.

Lin Zheyu was worried about causing trouble, so he quickly laughed and did not dare to continue to inquire about this matter.

The world of cultivating immortals places far more emphasis on knowledge, techniques, and inheritance than the world of martial arts.

Not only is it difficult to buy high-quality exercise secrets and learn knowledge about talismans, restraints, alchemy, formations, etc.

Even asking for some common knowledge about cultivating immortals will arouse others' suspicion.

Even common sense needs to be inquired, which means that the other party has a wrong origin and does not have a complete inheritance. This kind of person is either an enemy or a guy who got lucky and got a great opportunity.

Either way, it will attract others' attention.

"There is no hope for spiritual consciousness. Fortunately, the field of perception can still be used."

"For me, spiritual consciousness can only be used as an assistant. The most important thing is the transformation and improvement of the field of perception." Lin Zheyu said secretly.

Whether it's fighting or perception, there aren't many places where he uses his spiritual sense. Most of the time, the main function of spiritual consciousness is to collect the items in the storage bag.

There is also the ability to use spiritual consciousness to control objects and obtain the ability to fly in disguise.

There is no way, with his pure martial arts, he can't fly yet.

In martial arts, the ability to fly can only be obtained by advancing to the martial arts innate level and using the bridge between heaven and earth to communicate between heaven and earth.

Or it can be done by converting the true strength of martial arts into the spiritual power of immortality.

Although Lin Zheyu's true energy is strong, it is still true energy in essence. It is a more powerful true energy condensed into drops.

True essence and spiritual power are two completely different energies.

There are many things that spiritual energy can easily do that true energy cannot do at all.

Such as flying, cultivating spiritual consciousness, real sword control, etc.

The swords and magical weapons in the immortal way do not rely solely on spiritual consciousness, but require spiritual consciousness, spiritual power and magic, and the three of them cooperate with each other.

If one relied solely on spiritual consciousness, it would be estimated that the spiritual consciousness would have to be incredibly powerful to propel the flying sword to a speed exceeding the speed of sound.

This is also the reason why all the magic weapons, talismans and other items Lin Zheyu obtained were sold.

It's really because he can't use most of them.

Even if it can be used, its power is greatly reduced.

…

After confirming that spiritual consciousness could not be used here without the assistance of divine power crystals, Lin Zheyu turned his attention back to the field of perception.

It had been about two years since he last entered the Demon God's Barrier.

Over the past two years, Lin Zheyu's physical fitness has improved a lot.

Mainly defensive improvements.

Most of these improvements are the results of practicing those magic skills.

Simply improving defense will have minimal improvement in the field of perception.

The coverage area of ​​the sensing field has been increased from the previous radius of about 2,500 meters to about 2,600 meters, which is only an increase of almost 100 meters.

The field of perception is closely related to vision, touch, hearing, smell, taste, warrior intuition, etc.

In these aspects, Lin Zheyu did not perceive any obvious improvement when outside.

"Since the last time I entered the Demon God's Barrier, my perception has not improved much."

"This time, the demonic energy in the demonic barrier is even stronger, but the suppression of the five senses and perception fields is weaker?"

"Is it the function of this mysterious rune?"

Lin Zheyu stretched out his right hand.

As his thoughts moved, golden runes emerged, faintly flashing with an imperceptible golden light.

Under the flow of these golden lights, even the extremely strong evil force's erosion on him was reduced to an extremely weak level.

"Looks like I'm on the right track!"

Lin Zheyu realized it carefully and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Lin Zheyu had related ideas when he created the Hunyuan Golden Body Kung Fu with the two parallel main lines of magic power and martial arts, supplemented by the immortal body training technique.

And now, his idea has been proven to be completely feasible!

The so-called magic skills are special skills created by the most radical group of strong men in ancient times.

They tried to use magic skills to develop a physique suitable for survival in the devil world, but they gave up because of serious problems that could not be solved.

Now, with the help of Yuanli, Lin Zheyu has overcome the powerful side effects of magic power while retaining its characteristics.

"This feeling is so amazing!"

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

He closed his eyes and carefully realized the feeling of being in the strong demonic aura.

Although he still felt an inexplicable sense of depression, it was extremely slight. At the same time, Lin Zheyu also felt a strange feeling that he had never experienced before.

"receive!"

With a thought, Lin Zheyu took the initiative to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

He himself has the qualifications to cultivate immortality, and he can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth even without opening the bridge between heaven and earth. It's just because of poor qualifications and slow efficiency.

But the so-called slow efficiency is not only related to qualifications, but also closely related to the strength of spiritual consciousness and the level of skills.

Lin Zheyu has never practiced immortality cultivation techniques.

However, using the true energy's circulation in the sky, and the powerful spiritual consciousness to assist, and actively absorbing it, the surrounding demonic energy surged into his body.

Chi chi chi——

Strange noises continued to come out, and the demonic energy entered the body, merged into the meridians, and joined the circulation of the sky.

However, as soon as he joined the cycle of heaven and earth, the demonic energy was like water droplets dropped into a hot oil pan, and the true energy in the meridians boiled instantly.

Those that did not enter the meridians and merge into the flesh and blood of the body seemed to be attracted by the golden runes and actively submerged into the golden runes.

Gradually, the golden runes began to fade, shimmering with a strange light, and tended to degenerate towards the strange runes produced by practicing magic skills.

Boom!

But then, Lin Zheyu's body shook violently, and the bright red blood instantly turned into gold, blooming with rich golden light and blending into the runes.

The runes, which had been eroded by the demonic energy and had a tendency to degenerate, regained their golden color with the support of blood energy.

"Huh!!"

Lin Zheyu couldn't help but exclaimed.

Although during cultivation, he witnessed the condensation process of golden runes and knew that his own blood was extraordinary.

But now he actively absorbs and understands the transformation process of golden runes under the erosion of demonic energy, giving him a completely different understanding.

"The effect of the true essence is the same as before, but the appearance of the golden runes has amazingly improved the body's resistance to demonic energy."

"Not only that, the demonic energy seems to have a tempering effect on the golden runes."

Lin Zheyu murmured in a low voice, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.

The golden runes were far more powerful than he imagined, and the golden energy blooming in the blood was equally strange.

After research, Lin Zheyu discovered that the reason why blood transforms between gold and bright red is because the blood contains some magical energy.

As long as this energy is stimulated, the blood in Lin Zheyu's body will bloom with golden light.

Lin Zheyu didn't know what this energy was.

He named it golden energy based on its color.

It was the emergence of this golden energy that allowed the runes originally cultivated by magic skills to completely transform into golden runes.

I have to say that every drink and every peck is God’s will.

If Lin Zheyu hadn't fought so hard in the Qi and Blood realm, he would have condensed powerful golden Qi and blood and laid an astonishing foundation for martial arts.

There would be no more golden energy in the blood, and maybe there wouldn't be the formation of the golden runes now.

Without this golden energy.

Even with the help of source power, it is difficult for the runes produced by magic skills to remain during the recovery process of the consciousness space.

Even if it survives successfully, it is probably incomplete.

Woohoo~~

The strong wind swept away the demonic energy, raging between the heaven and the earth, making a whistling sound.

Only two or three minutes had passed from the time Lin Zheyu entered the Demon God's Barrier to the time he realized the changes in his body.

After understanding the changes in his body, Lin Zheyu did not leave immediately.

The experiment of actively absorbing demonic energy just now gave him new ideas.

"Maybe, I can do this..."

Lin Zheyu showed a smile.

The true energy in the body flows, and the spiritual consciousness explores the sea of ​​consciousness. It does not leave the body, but merges into the body.

Then, with a thought, he once again took the initiative to absorb the demonic energy in the air.

Under his active control, the demonic energy did not merge into the meridians and touch the true essence, but instead surged towards the golden runes covering the surface of the skin all over the body.

After a few breaths.

The golden runes emitted a faint golden light, and the light became dimmer and dimmer until they disappeared.

Not long after, the runes that lost their light were filled with a strange light.

Under Lin Zheyu's control, these runes shimmering with strange light emerged on their own initiative, condensing into a thin film of light energy, covering his whole body.

Boom!

Suddenly, Lin Zheyu's body reacted lightly, and the condensed light on his body shattered and disappeared in an instant.

The runes shimmering with golden light reappeared.

"..."

A look of helplessness flashed across Lin Zheyu's face.

He took a deep breath and tried again.

After the previous attempt, this time, the speed was much faster and more comfortable.

After a few breaths, it failed again.

the third time……

the fourth time……

hiss--

Suddenly, not far away from the black mud covered with mucus, a ferocious demon less than half a meter jumped out.

The demon let out a sharp neigh, and the sound was full of strange power, reaching straight to Lin Zheyu's sea of ​​consciousness.

However, as soon as he entered the sea of ​​​​consciousness, he was resisted by the true meaning of layers of defense.

call out--

Lin Zheyu didn't even look at the monster that suddenly appeared. The sword flashed in an instant, and the monster instantly turned into hundreds of pieces of meat and fell from the air.

Lin Zheyu became alert when the monster appeared within a radius of two kilometers, but he remained unmoved.

It wasn't until the demon attacked him that Lin Zheyu took the initiative.

Compared with killing the nearby monsters, studying how to degrade the golden runes into ghost runes is the most important thing.

If he can do it successfully, Lin Zheyu can use the shimmering runes to hide himself in the demon enchantment.

The fifth floor...

the sixth time……

…

Lin Zheyu failed again and again. Each time he failed, the duration of the next one would be greatly extended.

Among them, he killed eighteen demons that attacked him in succession.

Fortunately, Lin Zheyu was only on the edge of the demon barrier, and the demons that appeared around him were not very strong, and many of them were even demon puppets that were not even at the master level.

Time passes slowly.

Amidst the howling of the strong wind, Lin Zheyu was immersed in the study of golden runes, leaving only about one-third of his energy to be alert to the movements around him.

finally!

The sixty-ninth experiment is done!

Lin Zheyu's body was flashing with a purple-black light, and the light even spread out, shrouding the Setting Sun Knife in his hand.

Under his active absorption and control, the rich demonic energy penetrated the surface of the skin and was absorbed by the golden runes on the surface of the skin.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Zheyu used his true energy and spiritual consciousness to isolate the golden energy in the blood, preventing this golden energy from sensing the degradation of the golden runes and actively restoring them.

Although the principle is very simple, it is quite difficult to implement.

Lin Zheyu finally succeeded in the experiment after failing sixty-eight times in a row.

"Interestingly, these runes actually form an energy system that is independent of the true essence."

Lin Zheyu looked at the purple-black light covering his body with a look of surprise on his face.

Even he didn't expect such a result.

Lin Zheyu originally just wanted to hide his biological aura with the help of the degraded runes and the strange purple-black energy emitted after absorbing the demonic energy.

However, what he didn't expect was that as he studied, the golden runes actually showed magical effects.

A steady stream of demonic energy entered Lin Zheyu's body, and after being transformed by the purple-black runes on his skin, energy with some demonic characteristics was condensed.

This energy can be generated and maintained as long as it is continuously replenished with demonic energy.

But relying solely on the golden runes on the body is a bit slow.

And if there are too many golden runes transformed by the demonic energy, it will gradually erode his flesh and blood and soak in blood.

"This characteristic of golden runes needs to be added to the Hunyuan Golden Body."

"If we control these runes, we might be able to create a second powerful energy operation system that is independent of the true essence!"

Lin Zheyu was extremely excited.

This discovery was truly an unexpected surprise.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he took the first step into the Demon God's enchantment.

Under the shroud of purple-black energy, all the aura of life on his body was covered up, exuding an aura that was very similar to that of a demon.

Lin Zheyu's thoughts moved and he walked towards a demon more than 300 meters away to the right.

The distance between one person and one demon is getting closer and closer.

Two hundred meters...a hundred meters...fifty meters...even Lin Zheyu passed by the demon.

Roar! !

The demon, which was more than two meters long and had ferocious barbs all over its body, let out a roar.

It lowered its head, sniffed Lin Zheyu, then turned and left.

"Success!"

Lin Zheyu looked at the demon who turned away and smiled.

It's true that he has tried so many times and failed so many times. This kind of hidden effect is much stronger than the breath gathering technique.

The breathing technique can only hide his strength, but it cannot hide his own location or cover up the aura of life on his body.

Using this method, Lin Zheyu was able to cover up the aura of living creatures and disguise himself as a weak demon puppet, making Lin Zheyu's trip to the demon enchantment safer.

My heart relaxed slightly.

The field of perception expanded rapidly, spreading toward the surrounding areas.

As expected of the time and space node that had appeared for more than two years, Lin Zheyu soon discovered traces of the Demon River containing rich demonic energy.

Lin Zheyu discovered that the Demon River spread almost throughout the Demon God's Barrier, constantly branching out into tributaries, thinking about spreading to the outside.

Under the erosion of the viscous liquid containing strong demonic energy in the Demonic River, the entire land in the Demonic God's Barrier underwent strange changes.

The land that was originally full of life turned into a dead demon soil, and a large number of plants unique to the demon world began to grow.

Lin Zheyu dug down curiously, and was surprised to find that almost the entire area about a hundred meters underground was eroded by demonic energy.

Although it has not completely transformed into demon soil, it is not far away.

There are even a large number of demonic creatures living in the land, living on the demonic soil, and secreting some special viscous liquids.

Lin Zheyu was just curious to investigate and did not waste too much time.

He continued to follow the veins of the river, heading upstream.

If you reach the end of the river, you will find the node connecting the demon's lair.

Whoosh whoosh——

Lin Zheyu quickly moved forward in the darkness.

Demons kept passing by, most of them didn't even look at him, only a few sniffed him suspiciously, then turned and left.

Wow~~~

The clattering sound ahead was getting louder and louder, and Lin Zheyu was getting closer and closer to the center of the space-time node.

We advanced another dozen kilometers.

Lin Zheyu suddenly stopped and raised his head to look at the sky in the distance.

In an extremely distant place, a golden light penetrated the endless darkness and radiated towards the surroundings.

The location of the golden light should be the center of the space-time node.

"Why is there golden light here?"

A trace of suspicion flashed in Lin Zheyu's heart.

He sensed it carefully, and found that except for the monks who were hiding in the dark, hunting monsters and looking for medicinal materials, there were no violent battle fluctuations at the time and space nodes.

Lin Zheyu narrowed his eyes slightly, and after walking for about two kilometers, the golden light became more and more obvious.

He discovered that in the center of the golden light, there was a vague shadow of an alms bowl.

"Buddhist took action?"

Such thoughts flashed through Lin Zheyu's mind.

The alms bowl is a representative instrument of Buddhism. Coupled with the light that is full of Buddha nature and sacredness, Buddhism is undoubtedly a symbol of Buddhism.

Now that the Wei Dynasty and Buddhism in the Western Regions have reached a cooperation, it is not surprising that the strong Buddhists take action.

Lin Zheyu was just curious as to whether it was a strong Buddhist man who took action.

He had no intention of exploring too much.

boom!

Ouch!

Suddenly, there was a violent energy fluctuation in the distance, as well as a thundering roar from the demon.

The movement moved quickly towards Lin Zheyu, getting closer and closer.

"trouble……"

Lin Zheyu muttered softly.

He moved and quickly avoided, not wanting to attract the monk's attention.

Now that Lin Zheyu was disguised as a demon puppet, he no longer had to worry about the danger from demons, but instead had to worry about the danger from monks.

It would be a big loss if a monk who was stronger than him was killed casually as a monster.

Bang——

Lin Zheyu kicked his feet fiercely and moved forward some distance towards the time and space node.

The closer you get to the center, the more intense the demonic energy becomes, and more and more demons at the foundation level appear around you.

"We can't move forward. If we move forward, there might be demons at the Golden Core level."

"My current disguise is not perfect yet. If I encounter a demon at the Golden Core level, there is a high chance that I will be discovered."

Lin Zheyu stopped and said secretly.

As we move forward, we encounter more and more monsters. Lin Zheyu discovered that the stronger the demon, the more sensitive it is to its own disguise.

All monsters at the foundation level would look at him suspiciously after discovering him, and some would even slap him with a claw, intending to slap him to death.

However, most of them found that they had not beaten him to death, and most of them would not take action a second time. Only some particularly cruel ones would keep an eye on him.

Wow~~

The magic river flows and makes a gurgling sound.

The energy contained in this demonic river is extremely amazing, and there are a large number of demonic creatures wandering in it.

With a thought, Lin Zheyu absorbed the demonic energy a little faster, and the purple-black light on his body became more intense.

Covered in purple-black light, he slowly stepped into the Demonic River.

"Let's improve the nine-turn true demon body first. I've wanted to practice this technique for a long time."

Lin Zheyu said secretly.

The Nine-turn True Demonic Body is different from the Seven Evil Ghost Code and the Seven Evil Body Tempering Technique.

The latter two mainly improve physical defense and refine themselves into existences similar to the corpse-refining demon puppet.

The nine-turn true demon body transforms the body into a pure demon-like physique through nine transformations.

Strength, speed, attack, recovery, etc. are all similar to monsters.

It would be perfect if this technique could produce good changes under the influence of the source power and the golden energy in the blood, like the Seven Evils Ghost Code and the Seven Evils Tempering Body Technique.

When the time comes, maybe we can use the mysterious runes in flesh and blood as a basis to form a second energy circulation system with demonic energy as a supplementary source!

"If it can be done, even if the world completely falls, it won't have much impact on me."

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

This is the worst case scenario.

If there really is such a day, even if you can survive, it must be very boring to face a dead and lifeless world!

…
