Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1033 - 502: Obtaining the Immortal Artifact Qiantian Ice Soul Pearl, Ancient Cultivator_2
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
After all, leaving these demon corpses exposed would definitely corrupt a massive ocean region.
They could even spawn countless demons and demon cultivators.
Therefore, for typical cultivators, handling demon corpses presents a massive challenge.
Yet for Jiang Fan, it isn't so difficult; he possesses the skill to transform refuse into valuables by refining demon corpses.
"How could this be?"
"You took them down, yet you're still breathing?"
"Their forms harbor a dreadful curse."
"Not even mighty experts can endure it."
As Jiang Fan revealed the demon corpses, inside the Qianti Ice Soul Pearl, surges of shock welled up in its core, emotions swirling chaotically.
Across endless ages of existence, these horrifying demons had been slain by this man?!
What's more, their deaths were absolute.
This feat had eluded even alliances of many great powers long ago.
After all, the curse inside the demons instilled fear in them too.
Should they fall alongside these demons, nothing would remain to protect the Void Realm.
Thus, sealing the demons emerged as the optimal choice.
"I possess certain techniques that neutralize the curse."
"Hence, the curse in the demons holds no sway over me."
Jiang Fan responded with composure.
"Ah."
"No surprise you refined me so effortlessly."
"If it's you, you truly deserve to be my owner."
The Qianti Ice Soul Pearl drew in a profound breath.
It swiftly comprehended the remarkable nature of this human cultivator before it.
He might well be the Child of Destiny of this Void Realm epoch.
Serving such a pivotal entity would honor its stature.
"Daoist Xue Xue of antiquity placed you here, likely due to your capabilities."
Jiang Fan inquired.
"Indeed, I can freeze all things."
"These demons are immensely fearsome, each virtually unkillable, boasting undying bodies."
"And even if slain, the curse they carry overwhelms regular cultivators."
"Cultivators from the ancient times expended vast efforts against these demons."
"Yet unable to eliminate them, they resorted to sealing."
"Maybe hoping time's flow would drain them fatally."
"I, the Qianti Ice Soul Pearl, excel at sealing demons."
"That's why Daoist Xue Xue stationed me here."
"So, should these two demons escape the seal someday,"
"descendant cultivators could harness my might to refreeze them."
"But I never foresaw you slaying them, without even needing my aid."
The Qianti Ice Soul Pearl expressed with deep feeling.
It sensed this future cultivator's overwhelming strength.
He dispatched these two frightful demons sans its power.
No common cultivator could pull that off.
And it remained ignorant of the methods and prowess this human cultivator employed.
Furthermore, it observed his physique at Tier Six Early Stage only.
His Qi Cultivation lingered at Divinity Transformation Perfection.
Slaying two great demons from such a level was utterly unimaginable.
In ancient days, this would rank as a legendary miracle.
"I understand."
Jiang Fan nodded in acknowledgment.
Truly, this flawed Immortal Artifact, the Qianti Ice Soul Pearl, stands as a peerless tool versus demons.
When unleashed, it can successively encase demon after demon in ice.
Even with their undying bodies, it proves futile.
Once frozen solid, they threaten the Void Realm no longer.
Besides, the curse matters little since they aren't truly deceased.
Demons' vital forces are finite too.
Over the ages, time erodes their life force away.
In reality, most sealed demons have long perished.
Nevertheless, ancient ones like the blood-eating fish demon and shadowy fish demon cling to life with stubborn tenacity, their cultivation weakened greatly and requiring recovery time.
Viewed differently, any ancient demon enduring time's ravages to persist now wields world-shattering might and potential.
"Incidentally, Daoist Xue Xue left additional treasures."
"Sadly, time's toll has been immense."
"Numerous spiritual items fell to temporal erosion."
"Thus, only two thousand Immortal Stones remain."
"So, I trust you won't scorn them."
At that point, the Qianti Ice Soul Pearl conveyed with regret.
It extracted fully two thousand Immortal Stones from within, setting them before Jiang Fan.
At once, the stacked two thousand Immortal Stones radiated abundant Immortal Qi.
Consequently, the whole Demon Cave bathed in Immortal Qi, turning into a blessed Grotto Heaven paradise.
"Two thousand Immortal Stones?!"
"No disdain at all, absolutely none."
Hearing this, Jiang Fan stood stunned, scarcely crediting his sight.
Across countless chances in the Spirit Ruins Realm, he'd gathered merely eight hundred Immortal Stones.
Yet here, the Qianti Ice Soul Pearl casually produced two thousand Immortal Stones, a display of vast riches.
Undeniably, the Void Realm at its zenith outshone the Spirit Ruins Realm by far in prosperity.
Though the Void Realm had declined, remnants of glory lingered like nails in a wrecked vessel.
Bolstered by these two thousand Immortal Stones, he'd hasten his path to Divinity Transformation Perfection.
Then, ascension to Refining Void would follow swiftly.
This skirmish marked merely the onset.
The sealed Ancient Demons in the Void Realm numbered unknown legions.
He stood alone.
Without rapidly boosting his cultivation, should those Ancient Demons erupt free, unimaginable horrors could engulf the Void Realm.
Urgency burned fiercely in his soul.
Whoosh!
With that in mind, Jiang Fan wasted no time, promptly traversing the Gate of the Void back to the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm.
He commenced closed-door cultivation, resolving to ignore worldly distractions.
Personal cultivation trumped all else.
......
Meanwhile, atop Primordial Peak.
Su Weiwei and Lu Youyou soon heard of Jiang Fan’s arrival.
They also grasped that their husband had personally vanquished two Ancient Demons.
"Unbelievable, he truly felled the Blood-eating Fish Demon and the Shadow Fish Demon?"
"Precisely how did he accomplish it?"
"In the Ancient Era, these demons gained infamy, butchering myriad cultivators."
"Even back then, legions of Great Powers sacrificed dearly."
"Only thus were they finally contained through sealing."
"But a single human cultivator actually destroyed them?"
On receiving this report, the Taiyin Jade Rabbit, Yueque, froze in shock.
It had figured that personal involvement from that human might at best reseal the demons; outright slaying seemed a pipe dream.
Yet the impossible had transpired.
This defied all its predictions, leaving it utterly perplexed at the how.
"It defies belief."
"Yet the husband pulled it off indeed."
"He even hauled back their remains."
"Not one, but two Ancient Demons escaped this round."
"Thankfully, the husband intervened promptly, sparing innumerous lives from grim fates."
Su Weiwei voiced in fervent admiration.
She struggled to accept two Ancient Demons emerging simultaneously.
Any lesser cultivator would never have anticipated it.
But with the husband's direct hand, even concealed threats surfaced.
Moreover, he eradicated them both, a feat bordering on the miraculous.
For the husband, though, it might just be routine.
"Assuredly."
"Should you grasp the Blood-eating Fish Demon and Shadow Fish Demon's techniques, you'd grasp the sheer improbability."
"They earned the moniker of immortal demons."
"A single lapse would render slaying them unattainable."
"I misjudged this human cultivator."
"In the Ancient Era, he must have been a Great Power, rivaling or surpassing True Spirits."
At present, the Taiyin Jade Rabbit, Yueque, fully embraced the reality.
While humans mostly frail, rare prodigies arise sporadically.
Such prodigies boast aptitudes and battle prowess equaling or exceeding True Spirits.
Even outstripping them.
The Taixu Sect's founder exemplified just that.
"The husband now pursues seclusion cultivation."
"Upon emergence, he'll doubtless reach Refining Void."
Su Weiwei looked forward with keen anticipation.
