Chapter 112: Preparing to Refine Gu
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhou Feng had chosen the craziest method, directly relying on the Demon-Devouring Technique to raise his cultivation to the Grade-1 of Soul Altar realm.
Then he tried to get rid of the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body. This was not something that he could ignore.
He remembered that the Demon-Devouring Technique had many methods to eliminate certain side effects.
This was what he had seen on the stone tablet earlier.
The Ice Heart Gu could suppress schizophrenia and prevent Soul Altars from being contaminated.
At that time, Zhou Feng had also recorded down the refinement materials needed to refine the Ice Heart Gu.
“It seems that the main material is the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus! There is also the Pure Blood Gu as the basic Gu…”
Zhou Feng frowned as he recalled the materials needed to refine the Ice Heart Gu. The most important should be the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus and the Pure Blood Gu.
Zhou Feng seemed to have all the other materials. He could find the rest in the storage ring that the Han brothers had given him.
That was to say, as long as he found the two primary materials, he could start refining the Ice Heart Gu.
He could eliminate the Demon-Devouring Technique’s side effects with the Ice Heart Gu.
However, this Ice Heart Gu was not always effective. It only worked the first time.
If he continued to refine it later, the effect would be reduced by more than half, and the third time he refined it, there would be no effect.
“Although I have decided to use the Demon-Devouring Technique to increase my cultivation quickly, I cannot stop harvesting souls!”
Zhou Feng began to plan his future cultivation path.
He needed to increase his cultivation as quickly as possible.
After using the Demon-Devouring Technique, Zhou Feng was afraid that Old Demon Gu would use the Demon-Devouring Technique on him.
A huge sense of danger burdened his mind. In order to survive, he didn’t think about the consequences of using the Demon-Devouring Technique.
If he developed schizophrenia, then so be it. If he couldn’t break through in the following realms, then he couldn’t break through.
It was better to live than die!
Moreover, the Demon-Devouring Technique’s side effects might be unsolvable for Old Demon Gu. It might even be unsolvable for the rest of his life. He could only stay in the Purple Mansion realm forever.
However, if it were Zhou Feng, it would be different.
This was because it was likely that he would gain a passive skill that could resolve these side effects in the future.
Because Zhou Feng had this backing, his choices were more radical.
Although he was a little reckless, he was not stupid.
“Oh right! I wonder if the progress bar has changed?”
Thinking of the passive skills, Zhou Feng itched to take a look at the skill panel.
Previously, he had just obtained the passive Dao Seed. Now, the progress bar should have been reset.
He opened his skill panel and saw that his progress bar had increased by half!
Using the Demon-Devouring Technique could increase his progress bar?
If that were the case, then he would have no choice but to use the Demon-Devouring Technique.
Putting everything else aside, just the ability to obtain passive skills was enough for Zhou Feng to ignore all side effects.
All sorts of passive skills were actually what he had confidence in.
“Very good! The Ice Heart Gu is now the primary target!”
Zhou Feng instantly changed his plan—the Ice Heart Gu had now become the primary target.
The Ice Heart Gu could allow him to use the Demon-Devouring Technique a few more times, meaning that he could obtain a few more passive skills. Thus, he set the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus and Pure Blood Gu as his primary target.
The Hundred-Year Ice Lotus was a rare spiritual medicine, and it was not easy to find it.
The Pure Blood Gu could be directly refined, however.
The so-called Pure Blood Gu was only the last type of Blood Gu.
Zhou Feng knew how to refine the Blood Gu.
First, one needed to create a blood pool and then put in numerous Blood Gus. After that, they would add different types of blood in batches, of which the owner’s own blood was the key.
At the same time, during this Gu-raising period, the owner of the Gus had to constantly use the power of their divine soul to stimulate the Gus in the blood pool to kill each other.
This was a very tiring job, and there was a high possibility that it would end in failure.
Under the blessing of the blood pool, the Gus that entered the blood pool would be unusually fierce, and if they were not careful, they would be directly injured or killed.
“As for the blood pool… I remember that there are several Gu-nurturing pools in the backyard! I can just modify one!”
Zhou Feng remembered that there were a few Gu-nurturing pools at the back of the courtyard.
There were all sorts of facilities in this blessed land.
Now that there was a pool, the next step was to modify it into a blood pool.
The modification of the blood pool was extremely simple. It required setting up a simple formation and adding all sorts of blood.
However, Zhou Feng didn’t know the details of this procedure.
“I think the storage ring has an introduction about the blood pool…”
At this time, Zhou Feng recalled that the storage ring on his hand had a book about raising Gu, and the method of setting up the blood pool was written in it.
After all, this storage ring contained the accumulated wealth of the Han Clan.
For example, Gu-raising methods were definitely recorded.
Now, all of this had been handed to Zhou Feng.
Zhou Feng rummaged through the storage ring to find the materials needed for the blood pool.
“This… This is really a huge gift bag!”
Seeing that all the materials were there, Zhou Feng could not help but sigh.
Now it seemed that this huge gift bag was really timely, saving him a lot of trouble. It could even allow him to start his first Gu refinement.
Speaking of which, he had been in Tri-Gu Sect for so long, and only now did he have the time to try Gu refinement.
Gu refinement was clearly the Tri-Gu Sect’s specialty, yet he, a Tri-Gu disciple, had not tried Gu refinement.
…
While Zhou Feng was practicing Gu refinement, the blessed land was stirred up because of him.
Just like when Zhou Feng had entered the Medicine Tower.
A Grade-8 Soul Altar newbie had killed Gong Qu without using any tricks.
This piece of news was not enough to shake all the geniuses and monsters in the blessed land.
But when the news that Zhou Feng practiced the Demon-Devouring Technique was added, it was enough to shake these geniuses.
Demon-Devouring Technique! This was the Grand Elder’s ultimate skill!
Who knew how many people had wanted to learn it in the past? In the end, they either gave up or became a part of the Great Elder.
Now, there was actually someone who could learn it?
Moreover, as long as one learned the Demon-Devouring Technique, regardless of what cultivation level they had now, they would definitely reach the Grade-1 of Soul Altar in a short period.
Many people could already see a monster’s slow rise.
If this kind of plot followed the normal script, Zhou Feng would definitely start to be suppressed.
Indeed, many people were already scheming for Zhou Feng’s life. Now was the most intense time for the Sect Leader competition.
Leng Maner had brought Zhou Feng, so there might be many more variables.
But other than that, some people planned to rope in Zhou Feng.
Given his talent, he might become another Old Demon Gu in the future as long as he got rid of the Grand Elder’s control.
They could invest in this! They could even be pulled into the same battleship!
The Tri-Gu Sect did not lack crazy people who would risk everything.
As for Zhou Feng’s future growth, would it threaten some people’s statuses?
This was not a problem to worry about. If Zhou Feng really had the confidence to suppress the entire sect, so what if they made him the Sect Leader?
The cruelest method was needed to nurture the most elite disciples!
The Tri-Gu Sect followed this principle from top to bottom.
