Chapter 602: Chapter 298: Celestial Yin Ghost Fiend, Lu Chan’s Allegiance
To be honest, the cost of cultivating the Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine took Wen Jiu by surprise. Despite being Tier Three Lower Grade, it requires the entire resources of a sect’s Golden Core Zhenren to cultivate, a price truly exorbitant.
Essence blood, valued around fifty million Low-grade Spirit Stones. The worth of Demonic Evil Qi goes without saying, valued at millions.
Celestial Yin Qi, a millennium lifespan, these values are immeasurable. However, since both were acquired for free, Wen Jiu was too lazy to include them in the calculations. Even just these two combined reach the value of a Tier Three Top Grade Evil Yin Spiritual Medicine, which is almost unattainable even for a Golden Core in the West Mountain Floating Domain.
A typical Golden Core Zhenren who empties his possessions would still find it difficult to come up with such value.
Only a Golden Core Influence with several hundred years of heritage could have such depth.
What struck Wen Jiu the most was that this was merely the cost of cultivating one plant, while the Five Ghosts and Three Corpses obviously require more than just ten or eight plants to enhance their bloodlines. The consumption involved would probably reach astronomical figures.
"Now it’s up to the cultivation results." Having paid such a high price, Wen Jiu expectedly anticipates the outcome of the cultivation.
The words fell.
Wen Jiu immediately controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to approach the Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine. The Celestial Extinction Corpse Qi fiercely descended, starting the process of devouring and refining. However, the refining process was different from refining ordinary Evil Yin Spiritual Medicines. As the Absolute Spirit Corpse descended, the continued outbreak of Celestial Yin Blood Evil Qi within the Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine was similar to a Tier Three explosive talisman, forcing the East Spring Undying Bone to release more of the Absolute Spirit Corpse Qi to envelop it. Yet, even so, there was a noticeable feeling of inadequacy and exhaustion.
Moreover, as time passed, this became increasingly apparent. The East Spring Undying Bone had already erupted with enough Absolute Spirit Corpse Qi to cover ten thousand feet, reaching the limits of its own corpse qi, but the human-sized Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine continued to unleash Celestial Yin Blood Evil Qi.
"The Yinzhou Heterodox Record doesn’t even mention this, if I had only the East Spring Undying Bone, I would have wasted a lot." Wen Jiu couldn’t help but complain and, unable to care about much else, immediately controlled the Five Ghosts and the remaining Two Corpses to rush into the Spirit Gathering Array to begin devouring the Celestial Yin Blood Evil Qi that was gradually escaping from the Absolute Spirit Corpse Qi.
Rather than letting it leak or be lost, it was better to let the Five Ghosts also have a taste, just to see the effect of cultivating the other Two Corpses and Five Ghosts.
As time went on, three days passed in a flash, and the Celestial Yin Blood Evil Qi, which had originally continuously erupted outwards, was finally contained under the distribution and consumption by the Three Thousand Blood Inks, the Blood Demon Undying Bone, and the Five Ghosts.
Another seven days later, the Tier Three Lower Grade Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine was finally fully refined. The East Spring Undying Bone refined most of it, refining fifty percent. The Blood Demon Undying Bone and Three Thousand Blood Inks each devoured twenty percent of the Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine.
As for the Five Ghosts, they consumed slightly less, altogether only ten percent, yet the effect of the Five Ghosts devouring the Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine surprised Wen Jiu greatly.
This also significantly alleviated the pain in Wen Jiu’s heart for the huge cost of cultivating a single Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine.
[Five Yin Ghosts (Tier Two Perfection)]
[Bloodline: East Spring Ghost King (500/100000)——Evolution Direction: Celestial Yin Ghost Fiend]
[Ghost Skill: Acquired Ghost Skill Divine Power: Flawless Soul-Stealing Gaze (Minor Achievement 2080/20000)]
"Devouring ten percent, only gained five hundred experience points, ten portions would only yield five thousand experience points, but it did provide a new evolution direction. Celestial Yin Ghost Fiend..." The Ghost Fiend was mentioned in the Yinzhou Heterodox Record; if the external incarnation is a ghost, then the Ghost Fiend is one of the necessary conditions to become an External Nascent Soul.
The Ghost Fiend and the Corpse Demon belong to the same level; both can bear the evil karma acquired against the rules of heaven and earth, and they were also once called Ghost Gods ten thousand years ago. As for why it’s called Ghost Fiend, similarly, the reputation of the word ’God’ is tainted with infamy.
However, there is no need to elaborate on these.
The important part is that with the Five Ghosts having an evolution direction, a thought that Wen Jiu had been brewing in his heart surfaced once more.
Without an evolution direction, even if the Five Ghosts became an External Golden Core, Wen Jiu wouldn’t dare to focus on cultivating the Five Ghosts. Because without a bloodline transformation, the possibility of the Five Ghosts becoming an External Nascent Soul was very slim.
Wen Jiu didn’t want to waste resources, so he would definitely prioritize cultivating the Three Corpses.
"With a new evolution direction, after the Five Ghosts become an External Golden Core, they can be primarily cultivated." Wen Jiu murmured.
This notion is that after the Five Ghosts become an External Golden Core, even if the cultivation of the Blood Demon Undying Bone, or Three Thousand Blood Inks is put on hold, the Five Ghosts must be prioritized. Because the feedback it brings can be much stronger than the combined Four Corpses, yet the cultivation resources needed are equivalent to that for one Corpse.
After settling in the West Mountain Floating Domain, the significant expansion and increase in required resources prompted Wen Jiu to have this thought. Because this was the optimal choice while ensuring the cultivation progress of the East Spring Undying Bone.
Improving external entities.
While enhancing oneself.
Both advancing together.
The East Spring Undying Bone enhances cultivation to ensure safety and max out combat ability. The Five Ghosts improve to feed back into oneself, advancing one’s cultivation quickly and avoiding too large a disparity compared to external entities.
This brings up a thought Wen Jiu had long ago, one that emerged when the East Spring Undying Bone achieved the Unmelting Golden Pill - that one’s cultivation is actually very important.
An external entity can be re-cultivated if lost.
But the main body cannot.
"After the Five Ghosts undergo Crossing the Tribulation, I’ll set aside the realm advancements for the Three Thousand Blood Inks, Blood Demon Undying Bone, and Formless Demon Corpse," Wen Jiu immediately made the latest plans for future cultivation, Corpse Nourishing, and Ghost Cultivation.
