Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Chapter 665 -665: Pure Yang Pearl

Wang Chen’s predecessor had perished due to demonic possession.

Cultivators refine their arts, their bodies, and their souls, but any of these practices can give rise to inner demons and then be infiltrated by external evil, driving them into madness.

This is known as demonic possession.

Cultivators who become possessed either die in deranged states or they turn to cultivate the demonic arts and become true demon cultivators.

The cultivator who had presided over Free Residence before Wang Chen was one such unfortunate who fell into demonic madness, rushed straight to the Evil Eye; under the assault of Yin Sha Energy, his Divine Soul was utterly extinguished!

The Monster Spirit Giant had witnessed this very scene, which was why it was able to answer Wang Chen’s questions.

...

Regarding such a response, Wang Chen tentatively believed it.

In truth, he was not actually looking for an answer, but the explanation given by the Monster Spirit Giant clearly had its implausible aspects.

Wang Chen was aware of this and kept his countenance unmoved, “I see, I will be stationed here from now on, as long as you don’t come out and make a nuisance of yourself, there will be no conflict between us.”

This Monster Spirit Giant gave Wang Chen an odd feeling, seeming real yet elusive, and it vaguely concealed a threat.

Even with the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net at his disposal, Wang Chen wasn’t completely confident that he could subdue it.

This was the reason for his display of false cordiality.

Moreover, this creature had developed intelligence and could communicate normally, arousing strong curiosity and a desire to investigate in Wang Chen. For this reason, he was unwilling to come to blows lightly.

The Monster Spirit Giant shook its head and said in an echoing, deep voice, “Fine, then I’ll leave.”

It said it would leave and left, vanishing into thin air the moment it turned away from Wang Chen’s line of sight.

It made its escape swiftly and decisively!

Wang Chen watched it depart, his eyes reflecting deep thought.

He had slain countless Demonic Fiends and seldom encountered such an oddity, feeling that his understanding of Monster Spirits and Evil Wraiths was far too limited.

This Monster Spirit Giant was certainly not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Intuition told Wang Chen that there would be confrontations again in the future! And those times would probably not be as simple as now.

Having driven off the Monster Spirit Giant, Wang Chen began to patrol the area that had been under the influence of the malevolent winds.

He was not disappointed.

Evil Spirits that he had never seen before emerged one after another, surrounding Wang Chen in attempts to devour his flesh and soul.

However, these blind and foolish demonic beings all became prey to the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net!

Wang Chen found that as the number of fiends the Demon-Slaying Net eliminated increased, the artifact seemed to undergo some kind of change, with the might it unleashed growing even more powerful.

It became even more responsive to his control!

The Demonic Fiends in the Northern Evil Eye region really hit a streak of bad luck when they encountered Wang Chen; they were caught in droves by his net, like rows of rice sheaves being reaped one after the other in Spirit Fields.

By the time Wang Chen had completed a large circuit and returned, the Spiritual Power stored within the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net had actually tripled!

And Wang Chen had also obtained a batch of Utmost Yin Beads!

As it turned out, there was a high probability of obtaining Yin Qi Pearls from the falling Yin Qi Pearls after killing the Evil Spirits within the influence of the Evil Eye.

The closer to the center of the Evil Eye, the purer the Yin Qi Pearls from the slain creatures!

“Ding!”

Back at Free Residence, Wang Chen didn’t bother with rest, immediately summoning the Creation Cauldron and calling out to the Cauldron Spirit.

He called three times before the Ding reluctantly poked its head out, rubbing its eyes and yawning, “Master, what do you need Ding for?”

Wang Chen flicked his finger and sent a blast of wind straight to its forehead, “Not enough sleep yet? Get to work!”

“Ouch!”

The Ding dramatically covered its head, looking aggrieved, “It’s not that Ding wants to sleep, it’s that with nothing to eat or drink, Ding can only hibernate…”

As if Wang Chen was neglecting it!

“Alright,”

Wang Chen said impatiently, tossing over a Storage Bag, “This time, you’ll eat your fill!”

“Ah!”

The little Ding took the storage bag and opened it to look inside, revealing a look of surprise and joy, “So many Yin Qi Pearls!”

This storage bag contained all the Yin Qi Pearls Wang Chen had obtained from slaying evil wraiths and monster spirits, including some Utmost Yin Beads.

Naturally, Utmost Yin Beads were used to refine Nine Revolutions Pure Yang Beads, while ordinary Yin Qi Pearls could be used as auxiliary materials during the process to enhance the efficiency of the refinement.

Of course, the little Ding would also take a portion as its own nourishment!

After arranging work tasks for the little Ding, Wang Chen headed to the quiet room to start practicing the Innate Five Elements Skill.

He was already more than halfway through the experience of the seventh layer of the Purple Mansion, and he didn’t know how long he would need to stay here, so naturally, he could not neglect his cultivation level.

Moreover, in the deepest part of Wang Chen’s heart, there was always a sense of urgency.

It was this sense of urgency that compelled him to continuously improve himself.

For cultivators, cultivation level was the foundation!

Before he knew it, Wang Chen had entered a state where he and the world forgot each other.

The pure spiritual power gushed out from the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net, steadily flowing into his body, converting into powerful mana through the cultivation technique, silently permeating his organs and reaching every limb and bone.

As the cultivation circulated through the meridian cycle, the energy returned to the Dantian, his cultivation level grew a fraction more.

Time and again, Wang Chen completely lost track of time, fully immersed in his spiritual practice.

It was not until a crisp voice rang in his ear.

“Master, Master!”

Wang Chen’s eyes snapped open, the purple radiance gleaming within his pitch-black pupils as if thunder had illuminated the sky!

His spiritual practice had long ended, and his consciousness instantly returned to his body, immediately spotting the little Ding standing in front of him.

Wang Chen spoke indifferently, asking, “What is it?”

Swept by his gaze, the little Ding subconsciously lowered its head, feeling an instinctive fear.

This kind of fear was something it had never experienced before.

It made the Cauldron Spirit realize its mistake.

With a timid and shrinking demeanor, it answered, “Master, the Nine Revolutions Pure Yang Bead has been successfully refined.”

Wang Chen’s eyes brightened, “Is it ready?”

“Yes.”

The little Ding opened its mouth and spat out a shining pearl, presenting it with both hands to Wang Chen, “Master, please have a look.”

Wang Chen reached out to take the pearl, casually asking, “Just one?”

“Yes.”

The little Ding hurriedly explained, “This is a Second-Turn Pearl.”

The Nine Revolutions Pure Yang Bead is just a name; in fact, nine Utmost Yin Beads can refine a First Turn Pure Yang Bead, then nine First Turn be refined into one Second Turn…

And so on.

To refine a true Nine Revolutions Pure Yang Bead, the number of Pure Yin Pearls needed is undoubtedly a staggering figure!

Should one truly be refined, even Power Men Saints would be moved.

Wang Chen had no such delusions; in fact, he was quite satisfied that the little Ding had managed to refine a Second-Turn Pure Yang Pearl.

In the past, Wang Chen had used a First Turn Pure Yang Bead to cultivate the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Right Method, with very effective results.

A second turn would surely be even better!

Therefore, he did not blame the little Ding’s presumption and praised, “Well done, keep up the good work.”

It should be known that there’s a chance of failure in refining Pure Yang Pearls; it’s not guaranteed that using nine Utmost Yin Beads will definitely result in a successfully refined First Turn Pure Yang Bead.

If successful, rewards are a must!

He reached out to pat the little Ding’s head, and it squinted its eyes, grinning like a fawning dog.
