Chapter 94: The Eighth Revolution of Divine Demon
Sure enough!
The White Cloud Sect possessed an eighth-rank formation inheritance!
"Choose option two."
As Li Changsheng made his choice, countless pieces of eighth-rank formation knowledge flooded into his mind.
Even though he had already obtained the inheritance in the simulations and had studied it for centuries, he still found the eighth-rank formation techniques somewhat obscure and difficult to comprehend.
A few minutes later.
Li Changsheng opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his face. The formations he obtained from the White Cloud Sect were excellent, including several peak eighth-rank formations.
"First, let's level up my formation mastery!"
Li Changsheng murmured softly.
[Simulation begins.]
[At 32 years old, you successfully join the White Cloud Sect as a guest elder and diligently study the formation arts within the sect.]
[At 370 years old, your formation mastery reaches the eighth rank.]
After six simulations, his formation mastery finally reached the eighth rank.
"Again."
[…You diligently study the formation arts in the White Cloud Sect.]
[At 310 years old, your formation mastery reaches the mid-stage of the eighth rank.]
Another eight simulations, and he reached the mid-stage of the eighth rank.
"Again!"
With simulation opportunities still available, it was the perfect time to push his formation mastery to its peak in one go!
[…You diligently study the formation arts in the White Cloud Sect.]
[At 450 years old, your formation mastery reaches the late stage of the eighth rank.]
[At 390 years old, your formation mastery reaches the peak of the eighth rank.]
[You set up numerous powerful formations around the White Cloud Sect.]
[At 540 years old, the demon invasion begins. Hundreds of thousands of demons charge toward the White Cloud Sect. You activate your formations, killing hundreds of thousands of demons.]
[This act angers the Demonic Prince. Led by Xiao Zhengyan, who has already reached the Immortal Realm, three Immortal Realm experts break through your formations and kill you.]
[Simulation ends.]
"Choose option two."
As Li Changsheng made his choice, it felt as though he had cultivated formation arts for hundreds of years. Countless memories and experiences of formation mastery flooded his mind, and previously obscure concepts suddenly became clear.
"With 16 simulation opportunities left, I've finally reached the peak of eighth-rank formation mastery!"
Li Changsheng gazed in the direction of the Demon Abyss and muttered:
"Now, let's see if setting up a few eighth-rank formations can trap and kill that demonic shadow."
[Simulation begins.]
[At 34 years old, you bring five eighth-rank formation plates and dozens of seventh-rank formation plates to the outskirts of the Demon Abyss, waiting for Xiao Zhengyan to arrive.]
[A month later, Xiao Zhengyan and his team arrive.]
[Three days later, Xiao Zhengyan's team emerges from the Demon Abyss, severely weakened. The moment they step into the range of your formations, you activate them.]
[In an instant, the formations engulf Xiao Zhengyan's team. The three surviving Great Ascension experts are killed before they can react.]
[Xiao Zhengyan, the demonic shadow, and a Transcendence expert from the Grand General's Estate struggle to withstand the formations.]
[Three breaths later, the Transcendence expert is torn apart by the formations.]
[Xiao Zhengyan is severely injured by the formations. He uses a secret treasure to teleport out of the formations but collides with the outer Five Elements Demon-Slaying Formation, sustaining further injuries.]
[While the demonic shadow is still trapped in the formations, you suddenly appear, fully activating your Nine Revolutions of Divine Demon technique. You enter the formations and, in 17 moves, kill Xiao Zhengyan and obtain the Primordial Fruit. Without hesitation, you flee into the distance.]
[The demonic shadow, enraged, burns its essence blood and breaks free of the formations, chasing after you.]
[You enter a pre-set teleportation formation and escape tens of thousands of miles away.]
[You find a secluded spot and consume the Primordial Fruit.]
[Your Nine Revolutions of Divine Demon technique successfully reaches the Eighth Revolution!]
[Your cultivation level rises to the mid-stage of the Great Ascension Realm.]
[At 40 years old, your cultivation stabilizes, and you emerge from seclusion.]
[You storm the Grand General's Estate, killing two Transcendence experts. The demonic shadow appears, and you engage in battle. After 130 moves, you kill the demonic shadow.]
[You attract the attention of the Demonic Prince.]
[You head toward the capital of the Southern Li Dynasty, hoping to expose the Demonic Prince's schemes.]
[Along the way, two demonic Immortals block your path.]
[You fiercely attack, severely injuring the two demons, but you yourself are also wounded.]
[The Demonic Prince arrives in person. After 170 moves, you are killed by the Demonic Prince.]
[You die!]
[Simulation ends.]
"Phew!"
Li Changsheng took a deep breath.
The Eighth Revolution of the Nine Revolutions of Divine Demon was indeed powerful. Just after reaching the Eighth Revolution, he was able to severely injure two demonic Immortals.
But the fact that the Demonic Prince already had demonic Immortals by his side was alarming. Could the ritual sacrifice of countless cultivators 500 years later, intended to open the demonic portal, have been a ruse?
Moreover, the Demonic Prince's strength was overwhelming. Even Li Changsheng, having reached the Eighth Revolution, was no match for him. What secret trump card did the Southern Li Dynasty hold that prevented the Demonic Prince from openly seizing the throne and opening the demonic portal?
"It seems the waters of the Cangqing Realm are deeper than I imagined!"
Li Changsheng shook his head and murmured:
"Choose option two."
Although his cultivation level had also risen to the Great Ascension Realm in this simulation, he had no intention of advancing his cultivation further. Once he reached the Great Ascension Realm, each simulation would cost 1 billion spirit stones.
Moreover, even at the Great Ascension level, the increase in combat power couldn't compare to the sheer strength of the Eighth Revolution of the Nine Revolutions of Divine Demon!
Boom!
An immense surge of blood and energy flooded into Li Changsheng's body. He was enveloped in a brilliant golden glow, radiating an aura of immortality, eternity, and indestructibility.
His body uncontrollably expanded, transforming into a ten-meter-tall giant.
Although this transformation was smaller than the previous times when he became a hundred-meter-tall giant, the blood and energy surrounding him had solidified into a tangible force, freezing the surrounding space.
Boom!
Deafening roars emanated from Li Changsheng's body. These roars were the sounds of his blood flowing, like the galloping of ten thousand horses. Each roar was powerful enough to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator.
All of Li Changsheng's blood had now turned a pale golden color.
Golden blood vessels snaked around his body like coiled dragons.
Three days later, Li Changsheng suddenly opened his eyes.
Crack!
A crisp sound rang out.
The formations he had set up outside his cave shattered.
"Who's there!"
"Dare to cause trouble at the Herbal Pavilion? Are you tired of living?"
Old Mo transformed into a blood-red shadow and rushed to the entrance of Li Changsheng's cave, only to see Li Changsheng, clad in green robes, standing outside the cave. There was no one else around.
The moment he faced Li Changsheng, he felt a faint pressure.
'As expected of someone chosen by that existence. He's truly a monster!'
Old Mo had once been an Earth Immortal in the Immortal Realm. Although he was only an average figure there, he still had the insight of a high-level cultivator.
The aura Li Changsheng had just emitted was undoubtedly on par with an Immortal or higher.
How long had it been?
Only three years since he began following Li Changsheng.
Back then, Li Changsheng's combat power was only comparable to a Great Ascension expert. But now…
In the Immortal Realm, he had seen many prodigies, but even his Blood Demon Sect's Saint couldn't improve so much in just three years!
