Chapter 20: Re-entering the Demon Refinement Platform
"My way is the way of swordsmanship, and my way of swordsmanship is my mind. This sword is named after my mind, and it is the Heavenly Sword." After thinking about it, Chen Zong decided on the name of the sword.
"Heavenly Sword of Heart..." Ouyang Qi thought about it and felt nothing special. If he had chosen it, he would not have chosen this name, but since it was left to Chen Zong to choose the name, it naturally had to be in line with Chen Zong's wishes.
"Master Ouyang, my demon-slaying sword is damaged. I wonder if you can restore it?" Chen Zong put the Heavenly Sword of Heart on his waist and pulled out the demon-slaying sword to show Ouyang Qi.
Ouyang Qi's eyes fell on the spots on the demon-slaying sword's body, and his brows furrowed slightly, and then relaxed after a few breaths.
"It should be okay." Ouyang Qi nodded and said.
"Then I'll trouble Master Ouyang." Chen Zong said, sheathing the demon-slaying sword and handing it to Ouyang Qi.
Taking the Heavenly Sword of Heart with him, Chen Zong said goodbye to Ouyang Qi and returned to his residence.
He took off the long sword from his waist and held it in both hands. Chen Zong's eyes were full of excitement.
Take a deep breath and let the excitement gradually calm down.
"Let's start refining." Chen Zong said to himself.
Sitting down cross-legged, he pulled out the Xinyi Heavenly Sword and put the scabbard aside. Chen Zong lightly touched the blade with his fingers. There was a slight sting, and the tough skin was cut open, and blood filled the air and fell on the sword.
Tick...tick...
Drops of golden blood dripped from the sword wound on the finger and fell on the sword of Xinyi Heavenly Sword. It did not splash outside, but all fell on the sword and spread out.
From the sword's head to its tip, blood dripped one after another, completely dyeing the Heavenly Sword of Heart red.
The power of the Void Sword surged, and in an instant, it completely covered the Heavenly Sword of Mind and began to refine it.
The so-called refining is actually to establish a relationship between a person and a sword so that it can be used by oneself.
Ordinary spiritual weapons only have one refining step, but the Heavenly Sword of Mind is somewhat special, so it has three refining steps. However, as long as the first refining step is completed, it can be used like other spiritual weapons.
Using blood as the root and the Void Sword Strength as the fire, Chen Zong refined the Heavenly Sword of Mind step by step. This process was slow and long-lasting.
One day...two days...three days...
Time passed by, in the blink of an eye, fifteen days passed.
Under the power of the Void Sword, all the pure Yang Qi and blood were refined into the sword. With a flash of light, Chen Zong could clearly feel that there was a connection between himself and the Xinyi Heavenly Sword.
Looking at the sword blade again, although it still felt dazzling, it didn't feel like the stinging pain of having my eyes scratched like before.
The right hand falls on the hilt of the sword, and it fits perfectly, as if it is a direct extension of the arm, as flexible as the five fingers.
With a flick of the wrist, blossoming sword flowers appeared in the air, blooming in sequence. The faint golden red sword flowers, with a hint of silver glow, looked extremely beautiful, stunning and shocking.
In an instant, nine sword flowers bloomed in the air. Each sword flower was composed of ninety-nine sword marks, surrounding Chen Zong, like real flowers, lingering for a long time.
If other sword practitioners saw this scene, they would definitely be shocked. What a superb swordsmanship this is.
If it were before, Chen Zong could not do it, but after initially refining the Heavenly Sword of Mind, he did it, firstly because of his superb swordsmanship skills, and secondly, because the Heavenly Sword of Mind perfectly suits him, and is more powerful than the Demon-Slaying Sword.
Suitable for yourself.
For any warrior, the weapon that suits him or her is the best.
In this small room, Chen Zong waved his sword.
The sword light surrounds the whole body, like a swimming dragon, extremely agile and active.
"In terms of power, it is not inferior to the Demon-Slaying Sword. In terms of control, it is even better than the Demon-Slaying Sword." Chen Zong was pleasantly surprised.
After a while, Chen Zongfang sheathed the sword and put it on his waist. A trace of void sword power passed through the contact point and continued to pour into the Heart of the Heavenly Sword. After a cycle, it returned to itself, and so on.
, further refine this Heavenly Sword of Mind.
After the initial refining, there is the in-depth refining, which takes time and cannot be done quickly.
And Chen Zong also consciously controls the amount of void sword energy, so that it will not affect the performance of his own strength.
"If I don't use the True Intent Sword Solution, my strength will not reach the level of a king. The top priority is to improve my cultivation first, and use my cultivation to increase my strength." Chen Zong said secretly and walked out of his residence.
We meet each other coldly on the road.
"Brother Chen." Xiang Liang came over with a smile on his face: "Have you recovered?"
"Recovered." Chen Zong smiled.
"Then you don't know what happened during this period." Xiang Liang continued with a smile: "After we retreated, the demon army occupied the camp, but the top leaders of the demon-suppressing army made a prompt decision and detonated eight demon-suppressing pillars. Not only did
Destroy the demon army and destroy the portal."
When Chen Zong heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded.
I received the order to retreat before and didn't know anything else. After returning, I rested for three days due to the sequelae of the forbidden art True Intent Sword. Then I went to Master Ouyang Qi to obtain the Heavenly Sword of Mind, which took another half a month.
The initial refining can be said to be without leaving home, and without knowing anything about the outside world.
Unexpectedly, such a big thing happened.
The eight demon-suppressing pillars were detonated, killing the demon army and causing considerable losses to the demons. The destruction of the portal also prevented the demons from attacking Canglan Continent.
Immediately, Chen Zong couldn't help but think of the king-level powerful man from the Demon King Clan. He wondered if he had also died under the explosion of the Demon Suppressing Pillar. If he had died, it would be a bit of a pity because he could not kill him with his own hands.
Under the sword.
"If the portal is destroyed, wouldn't the demons be unable to attack again?" Chen Zong couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." Xiang Liang nodded: "But this is only temporary, because the portal was originally opened by the strong demons. Now that the portal is destroyed, the strong demons can open it again, but it will take time."
"According to my various understandings, it will take at least half a year before the powerful demon clan can open another door." Xiang Liang added.
"Half a year!" Chen Zong groaned.
Half a year is actually a short period of time. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to improve one's cultivation strength much.
"For the current plan, the only way is to enter the Demon Refining Platform again." Chen Zong said secretly.
Calculating that it has been more than a year since I entered the Demon Slayer Division, I can enter the Demon Refining Platform again to practice.
"My current cultivation level is at the late stage of the sixth level of the Human Realm. If I enter the Demon Refining Platform and practice a lot, it will not be difficult to break through to the early stage of the seventh level."
"By then, my strength will be greatly enhanced as a result, but I wonder if I can step into the king level?"
Chen Zong already had a clear idea of how powerful the King-level was, but it was not clear how much his strength would improve after his cultivation reached the seventh level of the Human Realm.
For me now, becoming a king is the first big goal and also an attraction.
It just so happened that Xiang Liang also wanted to go to the Demon Refining Platform to practice, so the two of them left together.
When he came to the Demon Refining Platform again, even though he had seen it once, Chen Zong was still shocked.
Stepping into the demon refining platform, I found an empty talisman base and sat down cross-legged, and started to run the Xinxin Gong.
In the demon refining platform, the essence of the powerful demons rose into the sky like wolf smoke, and then fell from all sides. Chen Zong's body was wrapped in the essence and wolf smoke, and disappeared as if it had been swallowed up.
A large amount of essence wolf smoke continued to pour into the body and filled the body. Chen Zong used the mind Xuan Gong to the extreme to quickly refine these essences.
Reaching the late stage of the sixth level of the Human Realm, Chen Zong's refining speed is faster. The most important thing is that after the Climbing Tower is completely refined, that part of the spiritual consciousness is released and restored to integrity, which makes Chen Zong's control ability greater.
The amplitude increased. With this increase, Chen Zong further accelerated the speed of refining the demon essence.
You can feel that the spiritual energy in your body is rapidly accumulating at an alarming rate.
He began to attack the next acupoint, and with repeated attacks, the acupoint was opened, and his cultivation level was improved as a result. However, if he wanted to break through to the sixth level of the human extreme realm, he still needed to break one more acupoint.
If it were in the outside world, it would take several months to accumulate spiritual power before it would be possible to get through, but in the Demon Refining Platform, this time would be shortened ten times or even a hundred times.
There was a pop sound, as if something broke, and a more powerful aura suddenly filled the air from Chen Zong's body.
The peak of the sixth level of Human Realm!
This was expected and reasonable. Chen Zong did not feel happy and continued to practice calmly.
It won't take long, maybe within half a year, the demon army will invade Canglan Continent again. At that time, it will be a real large-scale invasion.
After fighting against the demons on the first level of the Demonic Abyss, Chen Zong already knew how cruel it was.
If the demons attack the surface, they will definitely mobilize more troops than in the Earth Demon Abyss.
strength!
He must have stronger strength to be able to kill more demons when the demon army invades in large numbers.
Otherwise, a king-level demon master would be enough to defeat him, unless he casts a forbidden technique, but the forbidden technique is just a life-threatening method and cannot last for a long time.
Half a year!
At least, he will have to raise his strength to the level of king within this half year.
"Earth Spirit Realm..."
"Too far."
With the continuous accumulation of spiritual power and the continuous opening of acupuncture points, Chen Zong's cultivation level gradually improved.
The sixth level of human extreme realm!
But Chen Zong's limit is greater than the limits of other warriors.
When Chen Zong was working hard to improve his own cultivation, so were the others. They were seizing the time to improve themselves as much as possible. The air of this demon-suppressing fortress was filled with a sense of desolation and coldness, making everyone unable to help themselves.
They all became nervous.
"Sister, you go back first." Hua Wenjun said in a solemn tone.
"No, I want to stay." Hua Wenqing's face was full of determination.
"You should know that once the demon army invades, you may die here." Hua Wenjun said again.
"Brother, soon, the Demon Suppressing Army will be selected again. Like you, I want to join the Demon Suppressing Army." Hua Wenqing said firmly.
"You..." Hua Wenjun couldn't help but feel a headache. He wanted to participate in the selection of the Demon Suppressing Army, but he hoped that his sister would leave here and return to the family. This would be safer.
But now it seems that my sister has no intention of leaving at all, and is determined to stay, and there is nothing I can do about it.
