Chapter 1069 - 355: Preliminary Refinement (Part 3)

"Everything is ready, it’s time to leave."

Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness and murmured softly.

Although the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures needed for cultivating the Chaos True Skill were sufficient, due to the lack of energy, he had not been able to elevate the Chaos True Skill.

Lin Zheyu could use the vast Chaos Elemental Power stored in the Primordial Pool.

But doing so would be too extravagant.

This world has nearly no Chaos Elemental Power left; using a bit means less remains.

If there is any other way, Lin Zheyu tries not to consume Chaos Elemental Power for cultivation.

The Chaos True Skill he created, when cultivated in later stages, with the increasing integration of contents from Witch Tao, will start involving both Chaos Elemental Power and Earth Elemental Power.

If he prematurely exhausts the Chaos Elemental Power, and has no energy to use later, it would be an immense regret.

"Open!"

Lin Zheyu’s thoughts moved slightly.

The three Divine Treasures sealed within his body suddenly opened.

Massive Essence, Qi, and Spirit Energy poured out from the Divine Storage Void.

Lin Zheyu’s frail body quickly ascended at an astonishing speed, reaching peak state within just a few breaths.

His figure suddenly vanished from the void within the Primordial Pool, appearing in the courtyard.

With a gentle wave of his right hand, the Primordial Pool quickly shrank, entering his body, condensing into a tattoo pattern of the Primordial Pool on his chest.

This is a newly discovered ability Lin Zheyu has initially refined.

...

Night.

The bright moonlight poured down.

Moonlight seeped through the leaves, casting swaying tree shadows in the forest.

Outside the demon lair, ripples appeared in the void, as Lin Zheyu’s figure slowly emerged.

His form swayed slightly, penetrating the energy barrier enveloping the demon lair.

A foul, bloody scent assaulted his nostrils, as the black wind howled, engulfing him in a tide of Demonic Energy.

Feeling the familiar Demonic Energy, a long-lost sensation rose in Lin Zheyu’s heart.

"I’m here..."

Lin Zheyu murmured softly, his powerful perception spreading outward.

He discovered that after condensing the Lifebound Witch Pattern, the degree of suppression of his perception by Demonic Energy and demon will had weakened considerably.

No wonder Witch Tao practitioners are feared by demons; even at just the entry-level, they have such an effect.

"Sun Zhenzhi..."

"Let’s see if this guy is still here."

Lin Zheyu’s thoughts moved slightly, recalling Sun Zhenzhi.

The feeling of suffocation he had back then was still vividly etched in his memory; every time he entered the demon lair, images from the past would flash in his consciousness unwittingly.

Unless Sun Zhenzhi is eliminated, Lin Zheyu’s thoughts will remain obstructed.

It’s like having a thorn stuck in his throat, making him extremely uncomfortable.

His form moved slightly.

Lin Zheyu suddenly disappeared from his original spot, transforming into a shadow, speeding towards the Demon Suppression Army camp where Sun Zhenzhi used to be.

The camp isn’t far from here.

Soon, Lin Zheyu arrived outside the camp, about ten kilometers away.

With the experience from last time, Lin Zheyu knew that a terrifyingly powerful expert was stationed in the Demon Suppression Army camp.

This time, he wasn’t as reckless and directly used the golden Celestial Eye to scout the camp.

His powerful perception covered a one-kilometer area outside the camp, hiding in the shadows and observing the camp’s movements.

This is the demon lair, with a large number of demons and demon puppets.

The Demon Suppression Army needs to frequently deploy to hunt and clear nearby demons and demon puppets.

"Five days, if Sun Zhenzhi’s trace isn’t found within five days, then leave immediately."

Lin Zheyu said to himself, setting a time limit.

Woooo~~~

As the black wind howled, time flowed like water.

One day... two days... three days...

Soon, Lin Zheyu grasped the operation patterns of the Demon Suppression Army.

The Demon Suppression Army dispatches squads to hunt demons, each consisting of a hundred soldiers.

A total of ten squads are active outside, hunting demons; every half day, all ten squads take turns.

Unfortunately, Lin Zheyu still hadn’t seen Sun Zhenzhi among the squads.

The fourth day.

Just when he thought today would also end without finding Sun Zhenzhi...

Suddenly.

Lin Zheyu sharply opened his eyes, a hint of coldness flickering in his gaze.

His lips curled slightly, revealing a cold smile: "Finally, I’ve waited long enough!"
