The Devilish Immortal Chapter 5 The Shadow Domain Beast

Time was like water, and it had been four years since Lyu Liang reached the Virtual Land. According to the time outside, Lyu Liang was already fourteen years old. Compared with the time he first came to the land, he was a little taller and stronger. Of course, the harvest in four years was also huge.

On ordinary days, in addition to practicing the mantra and swordsmanship, Lyu Liang also studied the Hundred Herb Picture from time to time, and at night, he went to the south to use the Devil Qi to train his body.

At the beginning of the second year, the King of Medicine came and still did not give Lyu Liang a glance at all. He just threw him a cloth bag and then said only one word "recognize." Lyu Liang understood it and opened the bag, inside was a pile of Spirit Grass. For Lyu Liang, who had already mastered the Hundred Herb Picture, recognizing the grass was an easy and pleasurable task. Even the King of Medicine nodded his head while listening. After that, the King of Medicine left two words "teachable person" and then drifted away again.

When the Land Spirit learned about it, he sighed, "You are such a lucky boy! This is the King of Medicine who intended to teach you the methods of refining elixir and distinguishing the herbs! Once you have mastered the skills, you can make pills by yourself. Aided by the pills, your cultivation can be improved much faster."

Lyu Liang did not dare to delay and went to the north on the same day. Under the two-year guidance of the King of Medicine, Lyu Liang had memorized all the refining and identification methods of various elixirs (from the ordinary elixirs to the rare Daluo Elixirs) by heart, and had some hands-on practice too.

The Alchemy required Primordial Qi to produce the pill fire and the power of the Divine Soul to control and regulate the fire. With Lyu Liang's current cultivation, there was no problem in the refining of the medicinal pills for the Foundation Establishment. However, he had some difficulty in refining the medicinal pills used in the Gold Core stage. Besides, many of the Spirit Grass required for refining medicinal pills were cherished treasures. Even if Lyu Liang had the ability for refining, there might not be herbs to use.

The medicine pills were divided into four grades, which were the lower grade, mid grade, upper grade, and ultimate grade. For the majority of cultivators, getting mid-grade pills was already good enough. The upper grade was unobtainable, and the ultimate grade was basically a legend because the factors affecting the quality of the drug included both the level of the alchemist and the quality of the furnace used for alchemy.

The furnace used by Lyu Liang for practicing on alchemy was bright green in color, and the body surface was engraved with complicated lines. Every time during the alchemy process, these lines would flash five colors of glistening lights. It was not usual at first sight! This had resulted in the quality pills, either the upper grade or the ultimate grade!

"I am guessing that this furnace is the real body of King of Medicine. Oh my god! The furnace will not have reached the immortal standard of magic treasure, won't it !" Although Lyu Liang had never asked the King of Medicine, he knew that this place was built by Senior Dreamless Heavenly Lord to store the furnace, then the quality could only be high!

During the practice of alchemy, what Lyu Liang refined the most was the pills for Foundation Establishment. It was the most useful pill during the Foundation Establishment stage and was currently limited by the level of Lyu Liang. As for Seal-breaking Pill which could help him to break his Mysterious Devil Seal, it was a high-ranking medicinal pill that could only be refined by Nascent Soul cultivator, so Lyu Liang could only be envious of it.

Refining different medicinal pills had different requirements for the Elixir Fire. To familiarize with the manipulation of Elixir Fire, Lyu Liang also refined other medicinal pills that were not helpful for cultivation, but also have some uses. Among them, there were three kinds with specialty, they were Youth-retaining Elixir, Power-recovering Elixir, and Life-prolonging Elixir. With the ingestion of Youth-retaining Elixir, one could keep his appearance unchanged. Root-producing Elixir could create Spiritual Root for mortals or animals without it. Life-prolonging Elixir can extend the life span for another 100 years, regardless of being a mortal or cultivator.

Refining these three kinds of medicinal pills required a kind of Spirit Grass called Hollow Flower, which was also necessary for refining the pills for Foundation Establishment. Foundation Establishment Pill was a precious resource that could upgrade a cultivator's standard. Both its value and efficacy was far beyond these slick pills. Therefore, it was rare to see someone so extravagant like Lyu Liang in the outside world.

When going to the south every night, the man in black would mention a few words on the body reshaping method, and Lyu Liang felt beneficial from it. Out of nowhere, the black cat had pulled out a practice book named "Kun Peng Skill", together with two bottles of pills that had an auxiliary effect on the reshaping body, and gave him altogether.

From the eyes of the black cat, Lyu Liang could feel the sense of a family-like concern. Although he had many doubts, he also knew that it was not the time to ask yet. He had to wait, to wait until his strength and mind could withstand all these and then it was the time to ask!

This "Kun Peng Skill" could upgrade the body techniques, it consisted of a total of nine levels and was left by a powerful person from the Demon Clan. According to the black cat, Lyu Liang was a human and even he had the blood of the Devil Clan, and it was impossible to learn and reach the ultimate standard of the body technique. After all, his body structure was fixed and could not be changed. However, it was still possible to learn to a sixth or seventh level. Especially at the seventh level, one could actually move through space! That was a life-saving skill!

Over the past four years, as for the four aspects, refining Qi, shaping his body, practicing sword technique, and refining elixirs, Lyu Liang had not missed any of them. His obsession with his mother which was planted in his heart filled him up with fighting spirit at all times.

After four years, Lyu Liang's Xuanyuan Mantra had already touched the threshold of Foundation Establishment, and his strength had also been upgraded to the peak of Qi Refining stage. In fact, a year ago, Lyu Liang could already break through to the Foundation Establishment period. However, according to the man in black, it was better not to have too much difference in the levels between the body reshaping and Qi refining, so that in the future, there would be more significant benefits in the simultaneous upgrade to build a perfect immortal-devil body.

For the sword method, the second stroke, Wind-dodging move could already be skillfully swept out. As for the heart-sword style that was felt and realized that night, Lyu Liang also earnestly confounded and consolidated his gains, and now it was more powerful than the Wind-dodging Move.

Because it was a move that he created while missing his mother, Lyu Liang named it as the first style of the Heart Swordsmanship—Mind Sword Essence...

For "Kun Peng Skill", Lyu Liang had directly completed the second level, making him a little self-satisfied。

At the end of the fourth year, Lyu Liang went to the Rare Treasure Hall. After all, the Land Spirit had promised him that he could choose a treasure or weapon whenever he reached the middle and peak stage. Judging from the fact that Lyu Liang was currently a poor and broken man, he just couldn't wait to pick. Before that, sword Feiling had already followed Lyu Liang, according to the LandSpirit,, that must be considered a choice already, and even so, Lyu Liang had made a big bargain!

Just as soon as he entered the Rare Treasure Hall, Lyu Liang couldn't move, because the surrounding walls of the hall were engraved with the introduction of all kinds of rare treasures, and the attack, defense, and auxiliary categories were all classified and listed. At the sight of these, Lyu Liang felt refreshing, his eyes red with envy and everything was all over his head! Lyu Liang dumbfoundedly looked at it for five days, and then recorded all the treasures into his sea of consciousness.

It didn't take much time to pick up the treasure. Lyu Liang already had the sword Feiling which was under the attack category. Under the recommendation of Land Spirit, he chose a fascinating set of things, which was indeed for the Qi Refining period, but it was too useful!

The strange thing was called "Life-saving Puppet", it was a set of six puppets. As the name suggested, it was made to escape for life! The function was very simple. If there was an enemy to chase after during the escape, Lyu Liang only need to throw this puppet out and it would turn into the appearance of Lyu Liang, then its momentum could directly raise for two stages and it would rush towards the enemy to explode itself! Such puppet would have a strong impact on threatening the enemy!

It was a pity that everything was just a camouflage. Those who knew the goods didn't even care. Because this puppet could only blow itself and nothing else, and after the explosion, it could only make people feel like there seemed to have a gentle breeze blowing over the face...

Lyu Liang was delighted! Strange things were strange things, rare to be strange, he did not believe that many had seen it before! He now had six insurance for escapes, and was definitely happy!

After this, Lyu Liang went to the Training Tower. This time, the War Wolf was not dozing off, but it was unusually lively from the very beginning. When Lyu Liang asked it if the old rules remained that let it move and he would win, the War Wolf smiled and said, "Dreaming!" Then there was a big battle. The final result was that Lyu Liang's performance of the Wind-dodging Move beat the War Wolf and he made it do three somersaults before the fight was over. The first floor, passed!

There was a leopard on the second floor! Fast! That was the only feeling Lyu Liang had, but Lyu Liang had already finished the second level of "Kun Peng Skill". After he performed it, he could barely keep up with its speed. In the end, he had to use the first style of the Mind Sword Essence to hack the leopard and send it flying. The second floor, passed!

There was a big bear on third floor. It was actually taller than the Land Spirit. Lyu Liang once suspected that Senior Dreamless liked animals very much? If not, why was the Training Tower built like a zoo of spirit beasts? However, Lyu Liang did not dare to relax, turning on the Kun Peng Skill. He displayed Mind Sword Essence and dashed towards the bear.

The big bear's move was too simple. The bear's paw patted Lyu Liang directly and sent him flying out, but Lyu Liang did not do a somersault. He just landed steadily on the ground. The bear also stepped back two steps and grinned. "Kid, not bad, I guess I will lose when you reach Foundation Establishment." The third floor, failed!

After this, Lyu Liang also broke off his mind on challenging the Training Tower and focused on the improvement of the Divine Soul and reshaping his body.

Until the fifth year in the land, one night, a lot of Devil Qi suddenly began to condense in the dark sky. Slowly, the Devil Qi in the air formed a whirlpool. As if feeling a strong attraction, the Devil Qi rushed down frantically.

Lyu Liang was now at the bottom of the whirlpool directly. The Devil Qi was pouring in from the top to his head. His body was a bit dark at first, but now it had turned into completely dark. From afar, it looked like a statue burning with a black flame. After an hour, the Devil Qi was absorbed, and Lyu Liang's skin color returned to its original state.

"Good, you took a short time to cultivate to the second level. It seems that you can start to suppress the power of the seal now. Are you ready?" The man in black looked at Lyu Liang with a deep gaze and took out a small bottle. "Here are fifty Seal-breaking Pills, you can only eat one a day. Until you wake up the Devil Soul, you will feel like dying when you suppress it every day. If you can't stand it, I will stop, then wait until you reach the third level of the Devil Reshaping Technique, by then, you can definitely withstand it."

Lyu Liang opened his eyes calmly. His view was warm and firm. He stood up and bowed to the man in black. "Thanks senior for giving me the pill! I have waited too long for this day, so please senior, do whatever you need!"

On the daytime the next day, Lyu Liang used all his time on the consolidation of his cultivation. After feeling the state of the body had reached its peak, he waited at the southern Cenotaph at an early time.

When the night fell, a person and a cat emerged in front of the Cenotaph. "It's very early, by the look of your eyes, you should be ready. Before you start, you should get to know each other first," the man in black said while pointing his finger at the black cat.

At this time, the black cat changed the quiet image before, and its body flashed with demon-like purple light. Suddenly, Lyu Liang felt that the surrounding atmosphere had changed, the originally calm Devil Qi suddenly began to boil within the range of thirty-three feet around him.

"This is...?" Lyu Liang felt the Devil Qi around him incredulously. "The True Devil Qi! It is the True Devil Qi It is the same as the Devil Qi that was given to me before by the senior! God, within thirty-three feet It's all True Devil Qi!"

"I am the Shadow Domain Beast, one of the Ten Divine Beasts of Chaos, and also the symbolic beast of the Xuanli Clan of the devil world. The people of the Xuanli Clan who established the contract with me can stimulate a certain range of Shadow-devil Domain, filled with the True Devil Qi. The duration is based on the will of the contractor or the power of the Divine Soul. In the future, until the contractor's soul is broken or the contract is dismissed willingly, I can restore freedom." The black cat's tone was soft and calm. "My first contractor named me 'Black'. I like this name very much, so you can call me that too."

Although the black cat said calmly, Lyu Liang listened and could not be calm! "What did it mean? Fighting while surrounded by True Devil Qi? Come on, as long as I have enough Divine Sense, I can release my strongest strength without any scruples and don't have to worry about the lack of Devil Qi! To the Devil Clan, Shadow Domain Beast is simply the best beast!"

"In addition to the various creatures in the world, there are also a few divine beasts. Unlike the beasts that developed while growing up, the divine beasts are born with innate spirits, some of which are more powerful than the immortals from Heaven Realm.

"Among all the divine beasts, ten beasts existed since the beginning of the Chaos World. Each of them has an exceptional talent, maybe their fighting power is not the strongest, but they are more respected and worshiped by the ethnic groups than any other beast.

"The strength and weakness between the beasts have nothing to do with their own strength. It is based on the rules of the heavens and the earth at the time of their birth. These ten divine beasts with exceptional talents are also the highest-order existence among all the beasts, collectively called 'Ten Divine Beasts of Chaos'."

In the night sky, Black stood proudly. When it whispered all these words, it gave off an awesome aura.

This was one of the "Ten Divine Beasts of Chaos" that had the strongest domain power in the heaven and earth—the Shadow Domain Beast.
