"Hmm?"
At the back of the main peak of Ethereal Peak, the old immortal crane sensed something and was jolted awake from her cultivation.
More than ten days ago, Misty Peak had just experienced a catastrophe and was filled with devastation. Even now, many cultivators of the sect were still recuperating from their injuries and had yet to recover.
Although the old immortal crane was cultivating, she was paying attention to the happenings in the sect at all times.
Now that she was at the Dharma Characteristic realm, her strength had increased tremendously and her Essence Spirit cultivation had deepened.
Her spirit sense spread out. Within a radius of a thousand miles, not a single movement could escape her senses!
The moment Su Zimo made some movements, the old immortal crane sensed it.
"What a strong aura! He's about to break through!"
Although the old immortal crane was still at the back of the mountain, she could see everything in Su Zimo's cave abode clearly with her spirit consciousness.
As time passed by, the shock in the old immortal crane's eyes deepened.
"Even the inheritance memories of pure-blooded ferocious beasts don't have such a powerful demon cultivation technique!"
The old immortal crane murmured with a grim expression, "This child truly has way too many secrets."
Even with her knowledge, she could not see through those secrets.
Even with her cultivation realm, she could not understand them!
How could a human cultivate a demon cultivation technique?
In the primordial era, there were thousands of races and an earthshaking chaotic war broke out. Countless races were annihilated and were never able to recover from that setback.
The races that were left behind formed a massive race that was later known as the demon race.
Therefore, there were many types of demons – birds, beasts, flowers, fishes and insects were all part of the demon race.
Demons could be stone bears that were as massive as mountains or ants that were as tiny as dust. In fact, they could even be a single blade of grass or tree in the forest!
In the cultivation world, there were many legends of plants that gained sentience and attained the Dao.
The fact that there were so many complicated types meant that every single demon had a different body structure and was even more different from humans.
For example, the Vegetation race of the demon race did not have skin, flesh, tendons, bones or organs.
The Bull demon of the demon race had four hooves and two horns while the Snake demon had no legs or horns …
The old immortal crane truly could not imagine how there could be such a terrifying demon cultivation technique that was suitable for humans to cultivate in this world!
There was only one possibility.
This cultivation technique had absorbed the essence of many cultivation techniques of the Demon Race. Then, it found the parts of these cultivation techniques that were suitable for humans to cultivate and merged them together!
This was a huge project that would consume an unimaginable amount of time and energy!
Even the ancient emperors would not have been able to do this.
Who was it that created such a cultivation method?
What was the meaning of the existence of this cultivation technique?
Could it be that this terrifying existence had spent endless effort and racked his brains to create this Demon Clan Cultivation Method just to impart it to Su Zimo?
The old crane fell into deep thought.
…
It was pitch-black inside the cave.
Suddenly.
Su Zimo opened his eyes. They were like two bolts of lightning flashing in the dark night, demonic and enchanting!
There was a loud thud.
Su Zimo stood up. His flesh and blood swelled, and his bones mutated. With a series of crackling sounds, his entire body expanded, as if he was going to break through the clouds!
In the darkness, there seemed to be an ancient demon rising!
Rumble!
Boom! Su Zimo's body rose continuously and his head smashed through the roof of the cave. The cave abode shook violently, almost collapsing.
Countless rocks shattered but Su Zimo's head was perfectly fine!
For a disciple like Su Zimo, the layout of his cave abode was already the same as Perfected Being Jin Dan's cave abode.
It was spacious and tall.
Perfected Being Jin Dan could soar to a height of a hundred feet without any external objects.
Naturally, the height of a cave abode had to be more than a hundred feet!
What did a hundred feet mean?
It was equivalent to a ten-storey building!
But now that Su Zimo had smashed through the roof of the cave, it meant that his body had already risen to a height of a hundred feet!
Endless energy surged into his body and gathered at his chest.
His body expanded rapidly, causing his flesh to burst apart and burst forth with blood mists. His bones buzzed and his tendons were stretched to their limits!
Su Zimo was drenched in blood.
His powerful self-healing ability continued to repair all the wounds on his body.
Destruction … repair …
It was a cycle.
The aura emitted by his body was getting increasingly terrifying!
The process of tearing and healing was extremely unbearable – Su Zimo was enduring unimaginable torture!
A long time later, Su Zimo could no longer hold it in. Hunching his spine, he opened his mouth and the veins on his neck popped as he let out a deep, thunderous roar from the depths of his throat!
"Roar!"
It was like a dragon's roar or a tiger's roar that reverberated through the wilderness and shook the world!
Late at night was the time when birds and beasts roamed in search of food and their roars echoed one after another.
However, after this roar rang out, the mountains and valleys all fell silent!
The old immortal crane snapped out of her thoughts and her heart skipped a beat.
The old immortal crane's glabella shone and she released her spirit consciousness hurriedly, forming a pitch-black light barrier that isolated Su Zimo's cave abode from the outside world such that neither vision nor spirit consciousness could detect it.
The matter of Su Zimo's demonic cultivation could not be exposed yet.
The hatred of cultivators towards demons was deeply rooted and difficult to change.
If the other cultivators of the sect knew that Su Zimo was cultivating demonic cultivation, they might not be able to accept it.
The commotion was way too great.
Many Genying Zhenjun and Perfected Being Jin Dan were alarmed and thought that a strong enemy had arrived. Ignoring their injuries that had yet to heal, they walked out of their cave abodes one after another.
Everyone turned towards the source of the sound but could only see a light barrier – they could not see what was happening within.
"All of you, disperse and continue recuperating. There's nothing major here."
The old immortal crane's voice sounded in everyone's minds.
The cultivators of Misty Peak heaved a sigh of relief and returned one after another. However, their eyes were still filled with confusion.
Just Now, everyone could hear the roar loud and clear.
Even Genying Zhenjun of the sect felt his heart skip a beat!
"What kind of demon beast was that roar? It was so scary!"
"I'm not sure. It must have a strong background."
"It should have been suppressed by senior crane."
The cultivators of the sect discussed softly before dispersing.
They could not see that the cave abode had already collapsed within the pitch-black light barrier.
Amidst the rumbling dust, a towering figure that was more than a hundred feet tall stood.
Unknowingly, Su Zimo's clothes had long been torn apart, revealing his bronze muscles that shone with a metallic luster as though they were made of molten iron.
Blood vessels appeared on the surface of his body one after another. Green veins snaked all over his body in a frightening manner, as though they were crawling with spirit snakes!
This was a body that could be described as perfect!
One after another, terrifying phantoms surrounded that body, exuding an ancient and desolate aura.
There was a desolate bull that plowed the heavens.
There was a mighty and tall stone bear.
There was a coiling anaconda.
There was a wild and untamed sanguine ape.
There was a divine steed that charged forward.
There was a ferocious Hell Tiger.
There was a wind leopard that rode on the wind.
The seven ancient demons of The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness that had cultivated up till this point had all appeared. Their claws and fangs were menacing and lifelike!
On Su Zimo's chest, beside his heart, there was a round ball of blood that was spinning slowly, emitting a rich demonic qi. That was the Inner Core of the demon race!
The Inner Core was formed!
