Chapter 2356 - 2361: Advancement! [Fifth Update]

Chapter 2356: Chapter 2361: Advancement! [Fifth Update]

The surroundings are filled with the colors of life.

The lush green state makes the whole person feel refreshed.

"Elder Chu Fei, is this the place Miss Yi Fei must pass through after leaving the Divine Demon Palace?"

Xia Liu lets out Chu Fei’s demon infant for a while to confirm if the location is correct.

"That’s right! This is Mingyuan Valley. Miss Yi Fei will inevitably pass through here if she leaves the Divine Demon Palace."

Chu Fei dares not hide anything.

Although he escaped from the Floating Demon Tower.

In his heart there is a thought warning him.

If he dares to have any ideas of fleeing.

The next second he would be shattered into pieces.

Uh-uh, his body has already been crushed.

If he dares to flee this time, the demon infant may forever disappear from this world.

"Very well, you first enter the Demon Tower to cultivate, the demonic qi there is far more concentrated than outside. When I return from the Ancient Storage Tower or execute the plan and fail, I will set you free."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Chu Fei, thrilled, voluntarily enters the Floating Demon Tower.

He’s seen some of Xia Liu’s character, and this is enough to trust him.

"Xia Liu, while waiting, you could use the time to cultivate and enhance your cultivation."

Elder Bai suggested.

At this time, his cultivation is only at Demon Venerable level three, even if his bursting strength is strong.

But once suppressed, the consequences are hard to predict.

Demon Venerable level three and level four is a significant dividing line.

It’s akin to Spirit Transformation Early Stage and Mid-Stage.

A genius can fight beyond their level.

But when encountering an enemy that counters them, they can no longer fight beyond their level.

Only with a solid foundation can one have the qualification to compete and fight with stronger enemies.

"Elder Bai is correct, I’ve been thinking about finding a time to ingest the Chaos Demon Grass. If not now, then when will I refine and enhance?"

"Haha! That’s right, peacefully refine the magic potion, I will guard from the shadows."

Elder Bai is very happy.

Even though Xia Liu advanced to Demon Venerable cultivation, his original intent remains.

This is enough to lay the foundation for his future peak.

Without hesitation, Xia Liu presses the Flowing Fire Sword onto a spot not far away.

Then he takes out some demon crystals and broken demon weapons retrieved from within the Floating Demon Tower.

Although the demon weapons no longer have the sharpness and demon might of old.

But at this moment, they can still serve as materials for an array.

Acting as some cover for Xia Liu.

Shortly after, a small concealment formation was activated.

Xia Liu sat within it.

Even if a Demon Venerable strong cultivator flew above.

As long as they did not observe below with fine detail.

They would not know Xia Liu was cultivating here.

This concealment array was found by Xia Liu in the Demon Emperor Hentian’s legacy.

Currently deploying it was very suitable.

Without further doubt, Xia Liu swallowed the Chaos Demon Grass.

Instantly, a massive amount of demon power exploded within his body.

Demon might compared to Daoist power is simply incomparable.

Spiritual medicine, although the spiritual power contained is fierce.

Spiritual energy is always gentle and gradual.

Magic potion is different.

The demon might within it is over a hundred times more frenzied than spiritual power!

This almost terrifying cultivation method is also a major characteristic of demon cultivators.

Walking along the dark edge, enduring pain a hundred-fold more than righteous path cultivators.

Luckily Xia Liu possesses the Undying Body.

If he still had his original demon body, he would likely be unable to endure the pain penetrating his body.

Though the Undying Body hasn’t reached its peak.

It can support the full refinement of the tumultuous demon might within.

At the moment when magic power reaches its most frenzied, Xia Liu calmly deploys the Heaven-Destroying Art.

Boom!

Strange sounds emanate from Xia Liu’s body.

His expression gradually becomes grave.

An ancient hour, four hours, a day’s time passed...

Outside the formation, it’s birds chirping and flowers fragrant.

Though there are torrents of demonic qi in heaven and earth.

Yet the local birds and beasts have become accustomed, even reliant on demonic qi for survival.

On this day, torrential rain pours from the heavens.

Thunder roars through the mortal world.

Suddenly a green thunder strikes down from the Nine Heavens cloud sky, muddying a pool of blue water.

Beside the water, a small formation operates dimly.

Perhaps the array transmits defensive strength.

The Mysterious Thunder above the Nine Heavens rapidly condenses.

Finally, it strikes down toward the array!

Rumble!!!

Thunderclap shakes the three realms.

Suppressing ancient divine demons.

Yet unexpectedly, just as the heavenly thunder is about to crash into the formation.

An alabaster hand appears out of thin air.

Grasping the heavenly thunder entirely in the palm.

With a flick, the thunder is easily discarded into the muddy pool.

A few breaths later, the owner of the alabaster hand appears.

Blood red at the corners of the lips, wearing clothes with numerous claw marks, as if forcibly torn by demon beasts.

Facing the blood-weeping sky, Xia Liu raises his head, extending both hands, feeling the torrential demon power within him.

"This is the strength of Demon Venerable level four? Much stronger than before!"

Xia Liu is very confident now, if he encounters the demon beast that fled earlier in the Eternal Grove, he feels he could kill it with a single finger.

Of course, unfamiliar with the power within, a newly advanced Demon Venerable cultivator often has this illusion.

After calming his mindset.

The heavy rain has also stopped.

Sitting by the lakeside, Xia Liu quietly adjusts the power within him.

Until the pool water restores its prior clarity.

The demon might on Xia Liu also gradually reduced from Demon Venerable level four to Demon Infant Peak.

A few more days passed, there was no longer any demonic qi fluctuation on Xia Liu.

This indicates he has completely subdued the power of Demon Venerable level four; from now on, he can freely conceal it using secret techniques.

Just as before, even Guang Kun, a Demon Venerable level five, couldn’t detect his foundation.

"Elder Bai, during this seclusion, how much time has passed?"

Immersed in cultivation with a mind of doubt, Xia Liu is completely unaware of time outside.

Unaware if Yi Fei has been missed.

"Hmm, if we calculate carefully, about two months."

"Two months, during this time Yi Fei hasn’t passed here, correct?"

"No, apart from a Qi Cultivation disciple resting nearby during this period, no one approached this place."

Elder Bai said.

"Alright, Yi Fei hasn’t come out in two months, not sure if she’s still inside the Divine Demon Palace or preparing to leave."

"Not clear, let’s wait silently."

Elder Bai couldn’t answer, could only wait.

"Hmm."

Xia Liu wasn’t anxious.

Approaching Yi Fei is only the first step.

His road afterward has much to go.

The more impatient, the quicker he will expose himself.

After putting away the array.

Xia Liu finds a place to rest.

Like an ordinary demon lying on the ground.

On the tenth day of his silent waiting, a single aura suddenly enters Elder Bai’s soul consciousness.

"Xia Liu, someone is approaching."

"Is it her?"

"Wearing a veil, filled with mysterious aura, it likely is her!"

"Very good!"

Xia Liu smiles knowingly, then sits expressionless by the lakeside.

A few breaths later, a boundlessly beautiful silhouette appears on the other side of the lake.

Xia Liu and Yi Fei simultaneously see each other.

Then, locking eyes, both become numb for a moment.

And Xia Liu doesn’t notice, Yi Fei’s pupils suddenly contract...

PS: Today’s update ends, everyone rest early.
