Chapter 992: Chapter 992: Remnants of the Divine Demon Sect

Xu Nian furrowed his brow, realizing that energy metal had such drawbacks.

If Zhao Yunshen hadn’t told him, he really wouldn’t have known.

"You may not understand, but the cultivation of an Earth Immortal involves converting one’s True Essence into Immortal Essence at the Early Stage. This process requires continuous compression of one’s True Essence to gradually accumulate Immortal Essence. Gradually transforming one’s Zifu, completing its metamorphosis, is a prerequisite for entering the Middle Stage of Tribulation Crossing," Zhao Yunshen explained to Xu Nian.

Xu Nian listened very intently.

He only had a preliminary understanding of these things.

Although he had a super-strong Wentian Demon Sovereign by his side,

this guy usually sleeps to cultivate his Divine Soul, rarely appearing.

So, Xu Nian knew too little about Earth Immortal experts.

As for Emperor Ye Tian, her Divine Soul is still dormant within the Original Core of the Undying Devouring Sky Beast.

She cannot awaken for the time being.

"When one reaches the Middle Stage of Tribulation Crossing, one uses their Immortal Essence to transform their own body. The first step is to transform the heart, then the five internal organs, followed by the entire skeletal, meridian network, and skin. Once the body has been thoroughly refined, one reaches the Late Stage Earth Immortal, and at the Earth Immortal Peak, one reshapes their Mud Ball Palace, perfecting their Soul Origin to achieve the Immortal Soul," Zhao Yunshen explained.

Xu Nian nodded.

No wonder reaching the Earth Immortal Realm requires a long cultivation process; accumulating Immortal Essence alone takes a long time.

Moreover, refining an Immortal Body also consumes a lot of Immortal Essence.

"Now you should understand the importance of refining the Immortal Body on the path to immortality. The more energy metal you absorb, the harder your body becomes, making it more difficult to refine. Others might not have enough Immortal Essence to refine even one heart, let alone the whole body. Can you imagine how difficult it will be for you to become an Immortal?" Zhao Yunshen explained.

This time, Xu Nian fully understood.

In other words, the more energy metal he absorbs, the stronger his body becomes, and the more Immortal Essence is required to transform into an Immortal Body in the future.

He might even consume tenfold, hundredfold, or even a thousandfold the Immortal Essence others would need.

Of course, once the refinement succeeds, his Immortal Body will also become much stronger.

Normally, people do not absorb too much Black Gold Energy Metal.

Because for them, the required Immortal Essence is simply too vast.

It might take tens of thousands of years to complete the transformation of their Immortal Body.

It’s simply not worth sacrificing so much for a strong body.

"How does Body Cultivation break into the Gang Immortal Realm?" Xu Nian asked, puzzled.

He understood the Spirit Cultivation approach.

But how does Body Cultivation cultivate?

When he heard Xu Nian’s question, Zhao Yunshen thought for a moment and said, "Actually, Body Cultivation and Spirit Cultivation are different paths to the same goal. Although there are still distinctions between spiritual and physical bodies in the Immortal Realm, many Body Cultivation experts convert to Spirit Cultivation at the Earth Immortal Realm. After all, the path of Body Cultivation ends at the Gang Immortal Realm. It is said that in ancient times, there was a Divine Demon Refining Body Technique, an independent cultivation system existed even in the Immortal and Divine Worlds, but this cultivation system has long been lost."

Xu Nian nodded,

He knew this.

At the Earth Immortal Realm, many Body Cultivators start switching to Spirit Cultivation.

Because they reach a dead end at the Gang Immortal Realm.

But Xu Nian isn’t the same; he cultivates the ancient Divine Demon Refining Body Technique.

This was something he hadn’t mentioned, a significant secret of his.

"At the Early Stage of the Gang Immortal Realm, they also convert into Immortal Essence, but they compress and compress their internal Gang Energy to form Immortal Essence. During this process, they attempt to use their Immortal Essence to reshape their Zifu. Once complete, it is no different from Spirit Cultivation. Therefore, your Spirit Body Dual Cultivation is entirely a waste of time. In the future, you should focus solely on Spirit Cultivation," Zhao Yunshen advised Xu Nian with a glance.

Xu Nian smiled but did not comment.

His Divine Demon Refining Body Technique could certainly continue cultivation.

Moreover, the Gang Energy transformation described in the Divine Demon Refining Body Technique wasn’t into Immortal Essence but into Hong Power.

As to what this Hong Power really was, Xu Nian did not know yet.

He would have to wait until he broke through to the Gang Immortal Realm to find out.

"By the way, senior, you mentioned earlier there is a mission to the Tianhen Star Domain; what exactly is that mission?" After thinking about it, Xu Nian decided to change the subject.

Having talked so much with Zhao Yunshen today, he had benefited greatly.

He had gained a clearer understanding of the current Cultivation System.

As for whether or not to absorb the Black Gold Power later on, that would depend on future circumstances.

If there was an opportunity, he wouldn’t mind trying it.

"Ah, this matter, I almost forgot you mentioned it. Currently, the Tianhen Star Domain is quite lively. Apart from loose cultivators heading there from various star domains, the Four Great Sects have sent their disciples, and our empire has also sent some members of the Blue Gold Army there. When you get there, you can make contact with them," Zhao Yunshen said.

"So many experts have gone? Has some great treasure appeared in the Tianhen Star Domain?" Xu Nian said in surprise.

The Tianhen Star Domain is the weakest of the Nine Great Star Regions. What could attract the other eight star domains there?

Even the Four Great Sects have sent talents and experts.

To say something attractive, the Tianlan Star does have an Immortal Treasure Land.

But it is still far from the time when the Immortal Treasure Land opens.

"Nothing like a great treasure, just a sky-high bounty, reportedly, remnants of the Divine Demon Sect have appeared in the Tianhen Star Domain," Zhao Yunshen said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian’s pupils suddenly dilated.

Remnants of the Divine Demon Sect?

Could it be his master Bai Tianhan?

For some time, besides cultivating, Xu Nian’s other goal was to look for news about Bai Tianhan.

But he had learned nothing of significance.

Now, hearing Zhao Yunshen say this, naturally, he was very surprised.

"Senior, what is this sky-high bounty about? And who are the remnants of the Divine Demon Sect?" Xu Nian hurriedly asked.

Zhao Yunshen glanced at Xu Nian, having no qualms, and explained, "Back in the day, the Four Great Sects joined forces to annihilate a super sect called the Divine Demon Sect, and that was a millennium ago. However, they reportedly did not completely wipe out the Divine Demon Sect, and some remnants survived. The Four Great Sects placed a bounty to eliminate them once and for all: kill a Divine Demon Sect remnant and receive ten Immortal Pills and an Immortal Artifact."

"Ten Immortal Pills and an Immortal Artifact?" Xu Nian echoed in shock, but a surge of anger also welled up inside him.

He, too, considered himself a descendant of the Divine Demon Sect. The Four Great Sects targeting the Divine Demon Sect in this way was too much.

"That battle back then shook the entire Cultivation World. Reportedly, the Four Great Sects were searching for something that even experts from the Immortal Realm coveted. Yet after the battle, that thing disappeared, and the Four Great Sects have never stopped looking. Recently, rumors surfaced about sightings of people from the Divine Demon Sect, so the Four Great Sects dispatched experts. Our Denor Empire is joining in out of interest, and if you’re keen, consider taking on this task. The goal isn’t to kill the remnants of the Divine Demon Sect, but to capture them and bring them back to the Denor Empire," Zhao Yunshen explained.

Xu Nian’s pupils shrank sharply when he heard this.

The remnants of the Divine Demon Sect?

Could it be his master, Bai Tianhan?

During this time, Xu Nian’s aim, besides his cultivation, was to find news about Bai Tianhan.

Yet he had learned nothing so far.

"Senior, what exactly is this sky-high bounty? And who exactly are the remnants of the Divine Demon Sect?" Xu Nian asked hurriedly.

Zhao Yunshen gave Xu Nian a look but was not suspicious and explained, "Years ago, the Four Great Sects united to destroy a super sect called the Divine Demon Sect. This was a millennium ago, but reports suggest the Divine Demon Sect was not entirely eliminated, and remnants still exist. The bounty is ten Immortal Pills and an Immortal Artifact for anyone who kills a remnant of the Divine Demon Sect."

"Ten Immortal Pills and an Immortal Artifact?" Xu Nian repeated in shock, but inside he was filled with anger.

It’s reasonable since he’s also a descendant of the Divine Demon Sect, and the way the Four Great Sects specifically target the Divine Demon Sect seemed simply outrageous.

"That battle back then rocked the whole Cultivation World, allegedly because the Four Great Sects were after some object that even the Immortal Realm covets. But after that battle, this object disappeared, and they never stopped searching for it. It’s said that there’s information about someone from the Divine Demon Sect, so they have sent their experts, and even the Denor Empire is joining the fray. If you are interested, you could take on this mission; the goal isn’t to kill the Divine Demon Sect remnant but to protect them and bring them back to the Denor Empire." Zhao Yunshen explained.

"Alright, I’ll take on this mission," Xu Nian said resolutely.

Zhao Yunshen didn’t think much of this matter, nodding slightly.

After all, whatever the Four Great Sects have been searching for over a millennium cannot be that easily found.
