NOVEL NEXT Chapter 689 Human Skull and Little Evil Saint!
Yang Yan allowed the Little Evil God to refine the presence in the river within his body, infusing five hundred years of Cultivation into the Devil Seed.
He then took out the Big Pearl!
This Big Pearl, whose nature he did not understand, was a Treasure that could foresee the future.
And what it foretold was the scene of his most perilous moment.
*Truly, it was miraculous!*
"I wonder when my most dangerous moment will be this time," Yang Yan thought.
He stared at the Big Pearl in his hand, and an image gradually appeared on its surface.
The image was very blurry, so much so that even his appearance was difficult to discern.
However, Yang Yan could barely recognize that it was him.
In his hands, he was holding a Human Skull.
This skull resembled a human's, lacking any flesh and composed only of pale white bone.
Suddenly, the Big Pearl quivered, and the scene depicted on its surface vanished abruptly.
It was as if someone had erased the image.
Only an empty Big Pearl remained, reflecting his own appearance.
"This Human Skull is not simple," Yang Yan thought.
The Big Pearl had foreseen the future several times, whether it was the Saint Buddha of the Buddhist Sect or the gray hand reaching for the heart in the river.
The scenes the Big Pearl displayed were always stable and unchanging.
Only this Human Skull!
Once it appeared, the Big Pearl seemed to suffer heavy damage.
This proved that the Human Skull might have already known someone was spying on it.
Then it used unpredictable power to erase its own scene.
"It's even more fearfully powerful than the presence in the river!
Its strength and mysteriousness are unfathomable!" Yang Yan thought.
This crisis was more perilous than he had imagined!
He put away the Big Pearl and closed his eyes.
In his mind, he began to deduce where the Human Skull revealed by the Big Pearl might have come from.
"The journey of Ascension!" Yang Yan thought.
On the first day, he had a few tasks to complete.
The first task was to fulfill the promise to the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree on Li Mountain by going to the Cloud Forest to find a Holy Medicine known as the Primordial Life Tree.
He would deliver it to Li Mountain, handing it over to the Heaven Supporting Sacred Tree in exchange for the Heavenly Saint Fruit!
The second task was to locate the statue formed from the black ox that carried him to the heavens.
He wanted that black ox!
This black ox was not simple; perhaps it could help him a lot!
However, he was not sure if it was still on the first day, so he needed to search for it.
The third task was to visit the Jiao Long Clan in the heavens to inquire whether there were any Dragon Bones or Dragon Balls!
He wanted to Cultivate the third stage of the Ninth Stage of Dragon Transformation, the Six Viscera Transformation, and needed the Dragon Ball's assistance!
The fourth task was, if the Dragon Head Ship could not be used, he would need to disguise himself as an ordinary genius and join a Sect capable of reaching the heavens to ascend to the second day!
Among these tasks, the places where he might encounter the Human Skull seemed to be the Cloud Forest and the location of the black ox statue.
"For these two tasks, I need to be especially careful and cautious!"
He contemplated while monitoring the Cultivation progress of the Little Evil God.
At Noon, the Little Evil God in Yang Yan's Heart started to stir.
"It needs blood!"
In the King Realm, there were a total of seven levels, with the first being the Immortal Realm attempting to break through to the King Realm.
It required Cultivating one's force, using that force to temper Profound Qi, causing the Qi to transform, becoming more refined.
Once the Profound Qi throughout the body transformed, it could reach the King Realm.
The first five levels in the King Realm involved accumulating Profound Qi, comprehending the Great Dao, and Cultivating one's force, which was not difficult.
To reach the King's Sixth Realm, one needed to transform once again.
This transformation concerned the Cultivator's own Physique!
To transform the Physique, aside from tempering with Profound Qi, external objects were also needed.
For example, one might slay demon beasts possessing Royal Blood, using their blood to cleanse the entire body.
Transforming the physique, strengthening one's organs, meridians, and Physique!
In this Realm, the stronger the Royal Blood washed within the Cultivator, the stronger the transformed physique, and thus, the stronger the Cultivation.
The King's Seventh Realm was known as the Emperor Realm!
This required the Beast Soul of a demon beast possessing Royal Blood.
By using the Cultivator's Soul to absorb the Beast Soul Soul Power of the demon beast, one could strengthen oneself.
By absorbing powerful Soul Power to a certain degree, one could break through the King's Seventh Realm.
Emperor Realm!
This peak of the Realm also marked the Cultivator as a Semi-Saint!
To go further and reach the Saint Realm, one needed to Enter the Dao!
Without Entering Dao, how could one speak of becoming a Saint?
This was also the most difficult part!
Once sanctified, the Physique and Soul would transform once more!
The Little Evil God aimed to break through the King's Sixth Realm, the Prince Realm, needing the fresh blood of demon beasts with Royal Lineage, or the fresh blood of those within the Human Clan possessing Royal Lineage.
"My blood is quite suitable for it!"
Yang Yan's blood was True Dragon Blood, immensely powerful, naturally able to cleanse the Little Evil God.
Of course, in the Secret Realm within his arm, there was also Bai He, the Double-headed Flood Dragon.
Bai He belonged to the North Sea Flood Dragon Clan, the brother of the Jiao Dragon King.
Its blood certainly contained Royal Blood!
He could use Bai He's blood to cleanse the Little Evil God.
But the fresh blood within Bai He was not as potent as the True Dragon Blood in his body, making the cleansing of the Little Evil God less effective.
"Since pursuing the strongest, let me use my blood to cleanse it!"
In any case, the True Dragon Blood within him surged tirelessly, alive and unceasing, able to regenerate easily.
Cleansing the Little Evil God would not harm him at all.
Moreover, since the entity resided within him, his blood could circulate through the Devil Seed, equaling the flow of True Dragon Blood, thus enabling the cleansing of the Little Evil God.
"Cleanse its form!"
The True Dragon Blood within Yang Yan surged like a tide, with a roaring sound echoing from within him, pouring into the body of the Little Evil God.
With the cleansing by the True Dragon Blood, the Little Evil God seemed stimulated, letting out chaotic cries.
Its physique began to solidify.
From being illusory, it turned real!
Boom!
After an hour of cleansing, the Little Evil God broke through.
Its Cultivation reached the King's Sixth Realm, the Prince Realm!
Yang Yan's brow furrowed as his Second Sea of Consciousness opened, with Divine Sense and Soul Power pouring into the Little Evil God's body.
The Little Evil God opened its mouth to devour, beginning the breakthrough to the King's Seventh Realm, the Emperor Realm.
After another two hours, a wicked smile appeared on the Little Evil God's face.
Its eyes were greedy and laced with magic.
After yet another hour, it broke through once more!
It reached the King's Seventh Realm, the Emperor Realm!
Yang Yan's Second Sea of Consciousness closed, with the Little Evil God having devoured less than one ten-thousandth of his Soul Power and Divine Consciousness Power.
Moreover, he could Cultivate to recover, which did not affect his strength!
"To break through to the Saint Realm, you will have to realize it on your own," Yang Yan said.
Dusk fell, and then a night passed, arriving on the fourth day!
After four days of travel, the path ahead remained shrouded in mist.
The Wangchuan River still stretched beyond sight.
This day passed quickly, and the fifth day arrived!
The Little Evil God sat with its eyes closed, curled within the Devil Seed.
Its lips curled, revealing two sharp tiger fangs.
"Hehehe…" it chuckled mysteriously again.
An even more powerful and boundless Demonic Qi surged into Yang Yan's body.
It coursed through his meridians, eventually flowing into the body of the Little Evil God.
"It broke through!"
This time, if Yang Yan's Physique had not been strong enough, he truly would have been overwhelmed.
For the Little Evil God's Cultivation at this moment reached the Saint Realm!
An ordinary Immortal Realm Cultivator could not withstand a single finger before a Saint!
Some powerful Saints might even slay a common Immortal Realm Cultivator with a mere thread of Profound Qi from within!
Such a discrepancy couldn't be measured on the same scale!
"In five days, it became a Saint; it is now the Little Evil Saint!"
