Chapter 157: Golden Elixir Later Stage

  As soon as the four words "Shura Demon Sleep" came out, it was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, causing a huge ripple. The Orthodox Sects led by Kunlun, Shu Mountain Sword Sect and Ci Hang Jing Zhai immediately showed signs of wanting to take action, while the Tian Mo Men, Wan Yao Meng's Feng Du Gui Jing people stood in front of Yang Tian and others at the same time.

  Yang Tian didn't know what was going on when he heard Ba Tian exclaim, because Yang Feng hadn't told him about the Shura Devil's Eye. So he was a bit confused why Ba Tian would say "Shura Devil's Eye" after he mentioned Yang Feng's name, and why everyone became tense after he said those four words.

  "Shura Devil's Eye?! What is that thing?! Brother Ba Tian, what do you mean?!" Yang Tian asked Ba Tian with some confusion.

  "Hey, Yang Tian brother, let's talk about these things later. Can't you see? Some people are getting restless. Alas, I haven't killed anyone in years, but today I'll have to make an exception for your sake, Yang brother." Ba Tian looked at Yang Tian and saw that he didn't seem to know that his junior was the true Dragon Son with the Shura Demon Eyes, so he didn't tell him about it yet. Seeing that Dusty and others were about to take action, he naturally had to step in and help his brother resolve these issues first.

  "Hehe, I knew that coming out today would bring some benefits, but I didn't expect it to be such a good deal. Helping the true dragon son is a rare opportunity for us, and we've never done something like this before in the Wan Yao Alliance. This time, let's make an exception!" The demon king stood up with a strange smile on his face, standing alongside Ba Tian.

  But the rich Ghost King didn't say anything, and directly stood beside Ba Tian, obviously wanting to join forces with them to deal with Zheng Dao Men Pai. Ba Tian naturally also knew what the Demon King and Ghost King were up to, but he wasn't afraid of them. As the owner of the Shura Devil's Eye, he was originally the Holy Master of the Tian Mo Gate, and this future Tian Mo Gate Holy Master was actually recognized by the True Dragon Purple Qi as the True Dragon Heavenly Son. The luck of the world had long been bestowed upon our Tian Mo Gate, so even if you struggled to contend with us, what's the use? In the end, it would still be a futile effort!

  However, Ba Tian wouldn't be foolish enough to tell the Demon King and Ghost King about these matters now, as he still needs to use them to deal with those Orthodox Sects. It's not too late to talk about this after getting rid of all the Orthodox Sects. So Ba Tian also didn't speak, he just swung that huge greataxe in his hand, preparing to fight against those Orthodox Sects.

  Yang Tian watched as they were about to start fighting here, and he was worried that their battle would affect Yang Feng's entry into the underground cave. To think that these cultivators' powers were capable of destroying heaven and earth! If they really started fighting here, wouldn't they flatten this place? He and Xueyi had been holding on here for nearly half a month already, just waiting for Yang Feng to return safely. If they were affected by their fight, it would be all over.

  "Wait, what are you doing?! If you want to fight, go back to your Xiuzhen realm and do it there! This is the secular world, don't forget that you can't use your powers here! If you cause any impact on the secular world, can you bear the consequences?! Don't end up like ashes scattered in the wind when you're facing your tribulation!" Yang Tianyang said to the people present.

  Everyone present was shocked by Yang Tian's words, secretly grateful that they had not acted earlier. If they really followed what Yang Tian said and caused any impact on the secular world due to their cultivation powers, such consequences would be unbearable for them.

  Cultivating the truth is an act of defying heaven, regardless of whether it's a righteous or evil cultivator. The purpose of their cultivation is to ascend and become immortal. Those on the righteous path aim to ascend to the realm of immortals, while those on the evil path have different goals: the demonic cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Sect aim to ascend to the demon realm, the demons of the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance hope to ascend to the demon realm, and the ghosts of the Fengdu Ghost Realm hope to ascend to the ghost realm. However, it's not that simple - just hoping to ascend somewhere doesn't mean you can achieve it.

  All the cultivators in the cultivation world must pass through the heavenly tribulation if they want to ascend, only after passing the test of the heavenly tribulation can they have the opportunity to ascend. Therefore, every cultivator is particularly wary of the heavenly tribulation, hoping that they can cultivate enough power to pass the heavenly tribulation, but also fearing its arrival, because the heavenly tribulation is really too terrifying. Among those who attempt to pass the heavenly tribulation, eight out of ten will fail and end up in a miserable state!

  When crossing the heavenly tribulation, apart from having strong power itself, it is also necessary to avoid being tainted by too many causes and effects. Of course, if there are good causes and effects, it doesn't matter. During the heavenly tribulation, good causes and effects not only will not affect the person who is crossing the tribulation but will also help them. On the other hand, bad causes and effects will increase the power of the heavenly tribulation several times, causing the person who is crossing to be struck by the merciless heavenly tribulation until their soul flies away, and they don't even have a chance to reincarnate!

  So, cultivators generally fear getting stained with karma. Good karma is fine, but especially the bad kind, it's truly feared to death! And what's called bad karma has many forms, like now, if these cultivators in the mortal world fight and use their powers to harm mortals, or even destroy a single blade of grass or tree in the mortal world, they will get stained with bad karma.

  All the cultivators present, whether they were from the righteous or evil paths, broke out in cold sweats after hearing Yang Tian's words. Fortunately, they didn't actually come to blows; if they had, they would have inevitably been tainted by karma. Later on, when they really could transcend the heavenly tribulation, it would be extremely perilous. So, after hearing Yang Tian's words, the storm subsided silently and without a sound.

  Although no one made a move in the end, both sides still didn't give in at all and couldn't make a move. They couldn't confront each other, so a new round of confrontation between good and evil began like this. During this brief lull, Yang Tian asked Ba Tian about the Shura Devil's Eye.

  "Big Brother Ba Tian, what's going on with that Shura Devil Eye you mentioned?! Does it have something to do with our family's Ah Feng?!" Yang Tian asked Ba Tian.

  "Yang Tian, brother, I won't hide it from you. If the Yang Feng you're talking about is indeed the one I know, then that's a big deal. The Yang Feng I know has been recognized by the True Dragon Purple Qi as the True Dragon Heavenly Son, representing the overall fortune of humanity in the future. And he also possesses a pair of Shura Demon Eyes. Ha ha, Yang Tian, brother, you don't know this, but our Tiān Mó Mén (Heavenly Demon Gate) has records that show our ancestral master was someone with Shura Demon Eyes, and left behind an ancestral decree: anyone who appears in the future with Shura Demon Eyes is our Heavenly Demon Gate's Holy Master. So if the Yang Feng you're talking about is indeed the one I know, then he will be our Heavenly Demon Gate's Holy Master in the future, and we will only follow his orders!" Ba Tian said to Yang Tian.

  Yang Tian was shocked again by Ba Tian's words, although he didn't know if Yang Feng really had the Xiu Luo Magic Eye, but he knew that his family's Yang Feng was indeed a true dragon son recognized by the true dragon purple energy! So to speak, wasn't his family's Ah Feng actually the Holy Master of the Tian Mo Gate?!

  Yang Tian was stunned by this idea for a moment, he knew the power of the Tianmo Gate, which was absolutely the first among the three major evil sects in the Xiu Zhen realm. Although Fengdu Ghost Territory and Wanyou Alliance were very dissatisfied with this fact, none of them dared to raise any objections. The Tianmo Gate's strength was enough to rival any sect in the Xiu Zhen realm. If his own Afeng became the Holy Master of the Tianmo Gate, it would be an exciting thing!

  Yang Tianwu was excited there, and at this time, the devilish energy sealed by the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Demon Sealing Array formed by him and Xue Yiren was constantly retreating downwards, and soon disappeared. After the devilish energy disappeared, Yang Tian withdrew his own true yuan force, and immediately sat down on the ground in a state of exhaustion, but his eyes were still looking at the entrance of the cave, the retreat of the devilish energy indicated that Yang Feng had succeeded, so he was eagerly waiting for Yang Feng's appearance.

  At this time, Yang Feng in the underground world was at a critical juncture of breakthrough. When Yang Feng sat cross-legged on the jade bed condensed by demonic energy to start cultivating, he knew that this underground world was so vast and the demonic energy was so thick that it would take years or even months to refine all the demonic energy into true energy in his body. Therefore, Yang Feng basically put most of his mind on the acupoints all over his body, controlling the acupoints to absorb the surrounding demonic energy with great force.

  Yang Feng's plan was to first use his body's acupoints, which were like bottomless pits, to absorb and store the demonic energy. Later, when he had time to cultivate, he would slowly absorb and refine it. So the demonic energy in the underground world was absorbed by Yang Feng very quickly, but only a small part of it was truly converted into internal true energy.

  However, this is a relatively small part, because the demonic energy accumulated in this underground world for more than two thousand years is too much. Even if only a small part of it was absorbed and refined by Yang Feng into his body's true energy, it would still be a considerable number! And under Yang Feng's absorption and refinement of demonic energy, the nine-turn golden elixir in his body rotated at an incredibly fast speed, absorbing the liquidized true energy that had been compressed.

  Four-pole transformation of liquid true gas poured into Yang Feng's nine-turn golden elixir, making the volume of the nine-turn golden elixir slowly increasing. From the initial fingernail-sized golden elixir, it became ping-pong ball-sized, then egg-sized, and finally stopped growing when the nine-turn golden elixir reached the size of a fist.

  The fist-sized Golden Elixir is a sign of reaching the later stage of the Golden Elixir. As long as Yang Feng makes further progress, he can break through and enter the Yuan Infant stage. However, at this point, the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir will no longer grow or absorb the true energy refined by Yang Feng. The energy required for the later stage of the Golden Elixir has already been saturated.

  In this way, Yang Feng no longer needed to absorb and refine the demonic energy, he only needed to focus his mind on absorbing all the demonic energy around him into the acupoints on his body for storage. As a result, Yang Feng's speed of absorbing demonic energy increased greatly once again, which caused the overflowing demonic energy to suddenly retreat back in.

  Yang Feng continuously absorbed the demonic energy from the underground world, storing it in his body's acupoints. Although this might not have greatly increased Yang Feng's strength for the time being, it would be very beneficial for his future cultivation. Yang Feng was well aware of this, so he frantically continued to absorb more and more!
