Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons - Chapter 340 - Chapter 340: Chapter 338 The Recipe of Huashen Pill

Chapter 340: Chapter 338 The Recipe of Huashen Pill

“Disciple Yan Yun, carrying out the decree of Nanyang Sect, requests the demon’s execution.”

The young man in green robes took out a scroll of golden pages from his sleeve, carefully unfolding it to list the charges.

With a wave of his hand, he sent the golden pages to the edge of the abyss.

The demon of an unknown size fixated its eyes on the golden pages, its already tiny pupils shrinking to almost imperceptible size.

Suddenly, a wail emanated from the abyss.

“…”

It seemed that Real Person Yan Yun was merely performing a routine duty.

After silently counting to ten breaths,

“The demon admits its guilt.”

He opened his palm and pinched a spell, “Order of the Purple Dawn True Thunder, execute this beast.”

In the span of a breath,

Countless sword shadows suddenly emerged in the sky, each resembling a steep mountain peak, their blades erect and connected by chains. At their center, akin to numerous stars encircling the moon, was a throne, with the sharpest purple sword embedded in it.

It appeared as a colossal sword palace.

The young man joined his fingers into a sword gesture and casually pressed down, “Slain.”

As his words fell, he turned around and left.

The myriad sword shadows fell, filling the abyss.

Two moons dimmed in an instant, then plummeted toward the bottom of the chasm.

A trickle of essence blood floated out, landing on the hovering golden pages, as though sealing them with a red stamp.

Real Person Yan Yun raised his hand, the golden pages rolled up, slipping into his sleeve.

The next moment, the vast clouds once again rolled and merged together, obscuring Shen Yi’s line of sight and restoring calm.

“…”

Shen Yi closed his eyes and, upon reopening them, saw Ma Guangshan trembling.

He looked down at the scroll in his hand.

Gradually, a complex expression emerged in his eyes.

If the person in the painting was a “Real Person,” then what were those he had killed?

No wonder Ma Guangshan referred to it as a legendary tale.

If such an event truly occurred, for a cultivator such as himself, it would be an unspeakable blow.

“Have you heard of Nanyang Sect?” Shen Yi looked towards the man with the dark mole.

“Senior Shen… you can’t possibly believe it, can you?”

Ma Guangshan chuckled awkwardly, “Let me put it this way to you, it’s not really a secret tale. There once was a Nanyang Sect indeed, but its name had been used for only three months before being besieged by Thousand Demon Cave, leaving only a few survivors. Afterwards, they renamed themselves Wutong Mountain, and that’s how they managed to survive.”

“From that time on, the rumor goes, Wutong Mountain no longer widely recruited disciples, but only chose exceptional talents. The number of disciples was also maintained at around twelve.”

“This incident was much too significant. Even though Wutong Mountain has now become a transcendent powerhouse, the story continues to be passed down to this day.”

Hearing this, Shen Yi lowered his head and continued to sift through the Storage Treasure.

Apart from a pile of scrolls, there were only two torn pieces of paper that seemed to have been forgotten among them.

“Huashen Pill.”

“For disciples who have completed the Foundation Building stage, and whose lifespans have reached over a hundred years without forming a Spiritual Root, taking this can aid in the formation of a Spiritual Root. For those over five hundred years, the pill is useless, and they should seek external materials to create a substitute for a Spiritual Root.”

“Strict orders for those whose lifespans have not reached a hundred years to focus on their cultivation, and not to take this pill. Forced growth is of no benefit to the Great Dao.”

After reading the pill recipe, Shen Yi carefully folded it.

His mind was a bit muddled.

His own path of cultivation, from the Initial Realm to the Primordial, was simply referred to as Foundation Building on this torn paper?

“My lord, Lady Qinghua is also seeing this type of scroll for the first time; it couldn’t possibly be a forgery by another force.”

Lady Qinghua’s voice echoed in Shen Yi’s mind.

Having once been a member of Thousand Demon Cave, although she mostly stayed outside, she would have heard of such preposterous items if they were widespread.

“I understand.”

Shen Yi withdrew his gaze and looked at the second torn piece of paper.

The panel reacted this time.

[Nanyang Transformation Technique: Not yet entered the threshold]

It seemed to be just a minor spell, and was tossed into the pile of scrolls along with the recipe for the Huashen Pill.

“Alright, you may go,” Shen Yi looked towards Ma Guangshan.

“Elder Shen, feel free to call upon me if you need anything else.”

The man with the black mole heaved a sigh of relief, for the trip to the Thousand Demon Cave had nearly scared him out of his wits.

Especially upon learning that he had almost died at the hands of the Mysterious Light Cave.

He resolved to fast for a few more days once he got back.

After bidding farewell to Shen Yi, he shot into the sky without looking back and ran far away.

“Come out.”

Shen Yi waved his hand and summoned the elder of Qingqiu, who was still in a daze, and passed the recipe for the Huashen Pill to him.

Each has their own expertise.

If the Huashen Pill could truly be refined, then the ten thousand years of demon lifespan would not be considered a loss.

Though the recipe mentioned requirements regarding lifespan,

Shen Yi knew only that this item was related to the Spiritual Root, and given that he still had a True Sun Qilin Stone and non-remarkable Wishing Wood within him, he hoped to use the pill to further enhance himself.

What “pills are also useless”? That’s definitely because the quantity isn’t large enough.

Even if it truly proves ineffective, using it to enhance the strength of Great Qian’s cultivators would still be extremely good.

Watching the elder of Qingqiu gradually regain clarity in his eyes and begin contemplating the pill recipe in his hands,

Shen Yi let out a slight sigh.

No wonder Great Qian was becoming increasingly desolate. Even if Mysterious Light Cave didn’t bully them, as a power primarily cultivating the Yin Spirit, they were destined to be left behind by the two Immortal Sects as exploration of the Thousand Demon Cave progressed further.

Just poking around in the cave a little felt like a dimension-reducing strike.

He hardly dared to imagine how many treasures Mysterious Light Cave and Wutong Mountain had scavenged over the years.

“No wonder these demons have been guarding this place all along.”

If cultivators were truly let loose to explore, it wouldn’t take many years before all of them would lose their heads.

Time passed, the duration unknown.

Finally, the elder of Qingqiu, still seeming somewhat bewildered, lifted his head, “My lord, the herbs listed on this pill recipe, I recognize some from numerous ancient books, but they are almost impossible to grow in lands poor in spiritual energy.”

“Perhaps another trip to the Thousand Demon Cave is in order.”

“However, places rich in spiritual energy are also favored by demons and are mostly chosen for their lairs, to casually stroll in and seek herbs…”

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi pondered for a moment.

His gaze settled on the Transformation Technique in his hand.

Clearly, if his guess was correct, as Elder Brother Zhu Jue once said, this world was an enormous Immortal Sect.

Then those who held the most information would certainly be the top powers other than Great Qian.

He had always been troubled by his inability to join Mysterious Light Cave and Wutong Mountain.

But he had somehow overlooked another power…

Immortal Sects wouldn’t accept him.

Why couldn’t Shen Yi become the Demon Emperor of the Thousand Demon Cave?

The next moment, he decisively expended ten thousand years of demon lifespan to condense a piece of Demon Origin.

[Remaining demon lifespan: Thirty-two thousand years]

He then swept it over the souls of the two fallen demons.

The demons of the Thousand Demon Cave that he had killed so far included the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor, Demon Emperor Qinglin, and the Crimson Heart Serpent Emperor.

Actually, their realms were secondary.

After all, the higher the cultivation of the demon, the more Demon Origin it needed for sustenance.

The Crimson Heart Serpent Emperor and Demon Emperor Qinglin were both Great Demons at the Transcendent Spirit Middle Stage, and their reputations were definitely larger, being witnessed by many at the time of their demise.

Only the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor from the fortieth cave.

He met his end silently, and his cultivation wasn’t that high; mimicking him was simpler and less likely to be discovered.
