Lord Shenxiu-Chapter 504 Taiyin Refining (800 more)

Under a single sword strike, the sect gates were destroyed!

Even the Immortal and Demon Primordial Spirits, still locked in combat, were stunned by the might of this one sword.

"It’s Young Master Shen Xiu! I am Heavenly Spider. Thank you for your assistance, Young Master. You may choose any three treasures from the vault of the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect!"

In the midst of the Demon Sect Primordial Spirits, the Heavenly Spider Ancestor exclaimed joyfully.

This time, in the siege of the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect, neither side had the strength of their Dharma Bodies. Young Master Shen Xiu, being a half-step Dharma Body, was certainly the key to influencing the battle!

Zhong Shenxiu charged into the gates of the Dragon Tiger Sect as if not hearing anything.

His second Primordial Spirit, with three heads and six arms, suddenly transformed into a stream of demonic light and merged with him, causing his Divine Power to surge several times over.

"So it’s Young Master Shen Xiu!"

"Did this person lay a trap inside Dragon Tiger Mountain beforehand, enabling him to strike a blow from within and break the array?"

"I’ve heard that even the Teaching True Monarch couldn’t subdue him in a previous fight!"

Many disciples of the Dragon Tiger Sect exclaimed in astonishment and wailed... but none found it abnormal.

After all, since Young Master Shen Xiu opposed the Teaching True Monarch, he was a confirmed enemy.

It was only natural for an enemy to attack the sect gates! fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

It was merely rather dangerous!

"Miss Chen, the situation is dire!"

Sima Shu mounted his Wind-Thunder Beast and called out, "With the gates gone, we must save ourselves while we can!"

Chen Wenji turned back blankly, only to see countless demonic shadows, countless Primordial Spirit cultivators, countless Loose Cultivators, washing into the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect like a swarm of locusts.

There were disciples desperately resisting, but they were met with heavy casualties.

Yet for some reason, the two of them had made their way to the edge of Dragon Tiger Mountain. Once the array broke, they could escape the mountain, and there were few powerhouses who took notice of them.

"Let’s go!"

She promptly bit her lip, agreeing with Sima Shu’s suggestion, and couldn’t help but feel a bitter hatred in her heart: ’Had it not been for the missteps of our sect this time, how could we have fallen into a state where the entire world is our enemy, to the extent that not even the two great Daoist factions would lend us aid?’

She had always believed in controlling one’s own destiny, and now she felt it more than ever.

Zhong Shenxiu reabsorbed his second Primordial Spirit and rushed straight for the Taiyin Cave!

During this period, he had come to understand the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect quite well; he knew that the treasures and cultivation scrolls of real value were likely in the True Yang Hall and the Taiyin Cave!

Of course, they might also be with True Monarch Zhang and that Corpse Disintegration Immortal who might be keeping them close, which was something truly troublesome to consider.

"Thief!"

A Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect Primordial Spirit descended, raising a hand to emit nine Immortal Lights—it was the fully developed Nine Pure Immortal Light!

Within the sect, only Su Daoshi had managed to cultivate the Nine Pure Immortal Light Divine Power to completion, but with how long Primordial Spirits lived, there had always been the occasional lucky individual.

This Primordial Spirit was far stronger than the one who had fled earlier, having already survived three calamities, his mana incredibly impressive!

"I do not slay nameless foes beneath my sword. State your name!"

Zhong Shenxiu waved his arm, and the Ancient Seven Flames Flag emanated seven great Spirit Flames, tangling with the Nine Pure Immortal Light.

Of course, he knew that the Nine Pure Immortal Light was invulnerable to all laws; these seven great Spirit Flames could not touch it in the slightest. Therefore, he also released the Wuji Pearl and the Heavenly Demon Banner, conjuring the illusion of the Jile Heavenly Demon Realm, filled with countless witches and Rashamon who blew their horns and struck their drums. The demonic sounds pierced through the air, shaking one’s Dao Heart.

"Zhang Xuanzhi!"

The Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect Primordial Spirit shouted angrily: "For such grave sins, you shall surely be killed by True Monarchs and Immortals one day!"

"That’s not for you to worry about."

Seeing the anger surging within this person, Zhong Shenxiu knew that in addition to his normal emotions, he had been subtly tainted by demonic intent. He couldn’t help but chuckle lightly, covertly releasing a Yellow Gourd.

This gourd moved stealthily, hidden within the Jile Heavenly Demon Realm, inching closer to Zhang Xuanzhi from behind.

Zhong Shenxiu suddenly uttered a light cry, "Turn around, my treasure!"

Crrrack!

A sword light burst forth from the mouth of the gourd instantly, slashing heaven and earth with unparalleled sharpness. It successively cut through several strands of immortal light and stabbed into Zhang Xuanzhi’s Primordial Spirit!

"Ah!"

The Primordial Spirit let out a pitiful scream as its radiance suddenly dimmed, but against all odds, it did not die instantly and desperately tried to escape.

"As expected of one who has cultivated the Nine Pure Immortal Light, truly difficult to kill indeed."

Zhong Shenxiu did not intend to pursue and completely annihilate this person but casually proceeded into the Taiyin Cave.

On the ground lay something like a fresh red carpet, and as Zhong Shenxiu ventured deeper, he arrived in front of a massive black gate.

The gate, dark as iron and emanating a gloomy sheen, seemed to be composed of countless writhing black beetles.

Just at the first sight of the pitch-black gate, Zhong Shenxiu furrowed his brow, ’This gate might be even harder to break through than the Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Mountain Protection Array...’

Even he did not have the time to slowly refine or attack the gate, his expression became somber, ’It’s urgent; let’s give it a try.’

With a thought, he raised his hand and released the Nine Pure Immortal Light.

The nine differently colored radiances merged into the pitch-black gate, causing the myriad of beetles to suddenly speed up their movements.

’As expected... Many of the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect’s seals are sensitive to the aura of Cultivation Techniques!’

’They have highly encrypted responses to Cultivation Techniques, and some keys and authentication might likely be various unique Divine Lights, such as the Nine Pure Immortal Light, and even the Twelve Yuan Chen Universe Divine Light, etc...’

’Perhaps there has never been a traitor who managed to cultivate their Primordial Spirit in the history of the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect?’

However, the next moment, although the black gate continued to wriggle, it did not open.

Zhong Shenxiu pondered for a moment, "It seems that not everyone who cultivates the corresponding Cultivation Technique can pass through; what’s still required might be... bloodline verification?"

Upon this thought, he threw someone over – it was Zhang Taichu!

At this point, the man’s mind was clouded. As he fell upon the black gate, the countless black beetles devoured him, and he rapidly vanished from sight.

The beetles, satiated, parted to reveal a passageway.

Zhong Shenxiu solemnly stepped through and found himself within an ordinary cave.

Blazing!

He lit a torch and could feel an eerie atmosphere pervading the space around him.

Life and death, it seemed, were eerily merged into one.

’Indeed, this is the place of Corpse Disintegration Immortal...’

’If I could meditate here in tranquility for decades, perhaps I could decipher the secret of Corpse Disintegration Immortal without any technique.’

Zhong Shenxiu’s gaze lifted to the walls of the dark iron-like cave, where he spotted unique characters etched into the stone, appearing weathered like ancient runes.

The beginning read startlingly – ’Taiyin Refining Body Chapter’!

’Taiyin Refining Body surpasses the taking of Nine-Turned Pills. The bearer’s demeanor noble and strict, facial complexion like spirit clouds. Ascend to the Taiji Palace, receive the texts and become an Immortal!’

’Pass through the Taiyin in death, briefly pass through the three realms... Taiyi guards the corpse, three spirits nourish the bones, seven spirits serve the flesh...’

...

The eroded inscriptions were profound and mysterious, which Zhong Shenxiu could not immediately comprehend, but he memorized them forcefully.

"This is the method of achieving immortality through the Dharma Body!"

"It can be said... to be the essence of the ’Taiyi Dragon Tiger Control True Seal Divine Method’!"

"Without this technique, death of the Dharma Body is the true death, but with this technique, one can refine the body underground after death, hair and nails continue to grow in secret, the corpse appears alive, and in time, achieves the Dao! There may be a chance of failure, but there is always hope for success."

Acquiring this text on this visit to the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect was certainly not in vain!
