Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 931 - 375: The Temptation of the Celestial Demon Blood Fruit (Part 2)
Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, carefully observed Lin Xuankong’s expression, then a smile appeared on her flawless face,
"Kong, those three Celestial Demon Blood Fruits you presented to your master are invaluable. They could be exchanged for several exquisite Immortal Artifacts! I also know that consuming the Celestial Demon Blood Fruit greatly benefits the Divine Soul......
However, the Immortal Demon War in the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region is imminent. Perhaps during the war, one of us might fall victim to the spiritual attacks of the Demon Lords from the Profound Yin Demon Sect, skilled in such methods. Having these three Celestial Demon Blood Fruits on hand for unforeseen needs in the future could be far more beneficial than consuming them directly!
Moreover, ever since you returned to the Immortal Carriage Cave Heaven and I took you as my true disciple, perhaps due to my excellent mood, my insights into the Path of Array have improved dramatically, multiplying tens of times compared to the past. Every day’s insights come with frequent inspirations and continuous epiphanies. With these changes, I’m in no rush to consume the Celestial Demon Blood Fruits!"
Hearing Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, say this, Lin Xuankong naturally understood that the reason behind her continuous epiphanies was his own Vigorous in Old Age Life Plate, where his wives, children, elders, and youngsters’ talents were playing a role!
Yet he was still somewhat puzzled by the use of these three Celestial Demon Blood Fruits as stakes. After a moment of silence, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but ask:
"Since the three Celestial Demon Blood Fruits were given to Master, however Master chooses to handle them is not something a disciple should question! But why does Master use them as stakes for this contest?"
Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, upon hearing this, gently shook her head and looked toward the entrance of the Immortal Carriage Cave Heaven. At this moment, Qiaan Yuan Daoist and Kunyuan Daoist, Guang Yu’er, and Guang Ling’er had already left through the entrance. Gazing at the entrance, Immortal Lord Luoshui spoke:
"The two disciples of Qiaan Yuan Daoist and Kunyuan Daoist are extraordinary geniuses who advanced to Ninth-Grade Earth Immortal within ten thousand years. Although slightly inferior to you in talent, throughout the entire Immortal Realm, you can hardly find a handful of individuals who could compare with them in terms of talent!
Such unparalleled geniuses deserve to be tempered and exhibit their prowess during this Immortal Demon War!
The only pity is that Guang Ling’er and Guang Yu’er have evidently had a smooth journey on their Immortal Path and haven’t faced much adversity, which has led to a slight arrogance!
Since Guang Yu’er proposed the contest, I intended to use this as an opportunity to let them encounter some setbacks, making them realize there are people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens, showing them that even a Third-Grade Earth Immortal might possess the combat power surpassing their Ninth-Grade Earth Immortal status!
But a mere verbal agreement would make little impression on them even if they lost. However, with such precious Celestial Demon Blood Fruits as stakes, they would desperately seek victory, and upon failure, they would face a tremendous setback, serving as a valuable experience!
Of course,
the most important reason for using the Celestial Demon Blood Fruits as stakes is that Qiaan Yuan Daoist, Kunyuan Daoist, Guang Yu’er, and Guang Ling’er seem to look down upon my only true disciple!
I must use the Celestial Demon Blood Fruits to let Qiaan Yuan Daoist, Kunyuan Daoist, Guang Yu’er, and Guang Ling’er remember well and recognize what a remarkable talent my disciple, Lin Xuankong, truly is, what a startling jade he embodies!"
Upon hearing Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, Lin Xuankong was momentarily speechless. He couldn’t help but shake his head and say:
"Guang Ling’er and Guang Yu’er come from the Guangqing Immortal Sect, which is not weaker than our Luo Water Immortal Sect. Having cultivated for thousands to nearly ten thousand years, they are Ninth-Grade Top Earth Immortals, and inevitably possess formidable Immortal Techniques, skills, trump cards, and abilities. Even against demon leaders like the Clan Leader of the Ba Xia Race from the Boundaryless Mountain Range or the Clan Leader of the Qilin Race, regardless of the outcome, they could certainly put up a fight!
Does Master really have such confidence that I will surpass them in this contest?"
Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, looked at Lin Xuankong, her eyes filled with a hint of fondness,
"How could I, Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, not know the strength of the disciple I taught personally? Kong, your current strength might even allow you to go back and forth against the lower-ranked Immortal Lords among the twenty-eight strongest in the Human Race of the Immortal Realm! There’s no need to hold back in front of your master!"
"Ah~ Really? I can’t be that powerful!" Lin Xuankong said somewhat awkwardly. Clearly, his master had a relatively deep understanding of his capabilities!
Immortal Lord Luoshui smiled for a while, but the imposing expression on her face gradually vanished,
and then she sighed slightly and said:
"If only you were born several hundred or a thousand years earlier, then you would have had time to grow... grow into a true pillar capable of stabilizing the situation in the Immortal Realm, like the Sect Leader of the Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect, facing multiple Demon Lords alone, or like the Great Accomplishment Yu Zhen Bodhisattva, daring to lead people into the Profound Yin Demon Realm.
Unfortunately, as of now, you haven’t grown enough to truly influence the bigger picture of the Immortal Realm, meanwhile, this battle is the most difficult and tragic Immortal Demon War faced by the Human Race of the Immortal Realm!"
Hearing this, Lin Xuankong fell silent,
he felt a bit helpless. Possessing the miraculous Vigorous in Old Age Life Plate, which was countless times more wondrous than any treasure in the Immortal Realm,
if given some more time, even if it didn’t take long, just a few hundred years would do,
With that, possessing the Vigorous in Old Age Life Plate, his Immortal Path Realm would surely accelerate to Ninth Grade Perfection!
Furthermore, if given a few hundred more years, with the Vigorous in Old Age Life Plate, he would surely awaken dozens of wondrous talent abilities. By then, even if faced with ten or eight Demon Lords from the Profound Yin Demon Sect, he would definitely not feel intimidated!
Unfortunately, the Immortal Demon War, which affects the entire Immortal Realm, has already begun. In the Immortal Realm, there seems to be almost no place guaranteeing absolute safety! Even the Boundaryless Mountain Range has received the Celestial Demon Surrender Order, and as for those who have fled to small realms outside the Immortal Realm, with the realm overturned, where can one find safety? Those small realms, the Demon Generals and Demon Lords of the Profound Yin Demon Sect, how could they possibly let them go?
Surrender to the demons of the Profound Yin Demon Sect? Become a demon on the Evil Dao producing Demon Artifacts with the refining of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, even tens of millions, or hundreds of billions of souls? I would never walk such a path. Moreover, the so-called Holy Son Gang Bone of the Profound Yin Demon Sect is probably eager to swallow me alive. Other Earth Immortals of the Human Race in the Immortal Realm may survive by surrendering to the Profound Yin Demon Sect, but for me, reconciliation with Gang Bone "turning swords into ploughshares" is utterly impossible. Most likely, I’d end up surrendering to the Demon Sect, only for Gang Bone to dissolve my Immortal Body into pus!
Alas! Time waits for no one!
As Lin Xuankong was contemplating, Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, closed her eyes momentarily. When she reopened them, they were filled with determined fighting spirit,
Gazing intensely into the distance, she spoke: "Although there isn’t much time left for you to grow, Kong, you can rest assured. In this Immortal Demon War, as long as I, Immortal Lord Luoshui, Yaan Mingyu, am still alive, I will ensure that the first genius of the Immortal Realm in tens of thousands of years remains unharmed!
So what if the demons from the Profound Yin Demon Sect are powerful? I, Yaan Mingyu, have studied the Path of Array for millennia without wasting a single moment. This battle will show those demons who disturb the Immortal Realm the power of the Luo Water Array!"
