"Ah!!"
The purple light that shot out from the purple King Mark on the forehead turned into tiny purple threads above the five souls, entangling them. After being entangled, no matter how hard they struggled, they could not break free. Moreover, their bodies were pulled by the purple threads and quickly approached the King Mark.
No one knew what the purple light emitted from the King Mark was, but the souls of these cultivators could not even resist and were abruptly pulled upside down. When they were close to the King Mark, strange changes also appeared on them.
They saw that —
The souls, which were originally the same size as their bodies, began to mysteriously shrink. The closer they were to the King Mark, the faster they shrank. Almost in the blink of an eye, when they were in front of the King Mark, the souls of the five people had shrunk to the size of a thumb. The purple King Mark suddenly blazed and swallowed the five souls in an instant.
The purple light that had been scattered out also quickly converged in an instant. It disappeared.
"This is …"
Di Shitian's eyes showed a trace of doubt. Now, although the King Mark on his forehead had returned to the past, he could clearly feel that there seemed to be something more in the King Mark. Moreover, in the power of the King Mark, he could vaguely feel a mysterious power flowing in it.
His eyes became a little deep. An idiom that he had seen in his previous life suddenly appeared in his mind: Accomplice to the Tiger.
He remembered that when he heard this idiom, in order to understand its meaning, he had specially looked up some information. He still remembered the content clearly.
Legend had it that the word "Chi" in "Accomplice to the Tiger" represented a Chi Ghost. In ancient times, it was said that people who were eaten by tigers became Chi Ghosts after death and were specially used to lure people to be eaten by tigers. Being a Chi Ghost for the Tiger. It was a metaphor for being an accomplice of the wicked.
Moreover, in "Taiping Guangji" volume 430, there was a record: "Chi Ghosts, people who were eaten by tigers, were in front of tigers." Song Sun Guangxian's "Northern Dream Suo Yan Wen" volume 4 also had a record: "All ghosts who died by tigers and drowned in water were called Chi Ghosts and had to be replaced by one person."
There was also a legend that when a tiger bit a person and killed him, the deceased did not dare to live with the tiger. It was called Chi Ghosts. Chi Ghosts led the way for the tiger. When encountering a hidden trap on the way, they moved forward. When a man meets a tiger, his clothes will be taken off. It was all done by Chi Ghosts. When a tiger sees a man, it feeds on him.
Generally speaking, it meant that the souls of people or creatures killed by the tiger would not enter the cycle of reincarnation after death. Instead, they would be bound to the tiger's side and be controlled by it.
In the past, Di Shitian had only thought that it was an ancient legend and not real. But now that he saw the sudden change in the King Mark on his forehead, he couldn't help but think of this possibility.
"Could this be the innate ability I've awakened?"
It would be a lie if he said that he was not looking forward to his innate ability. In the past, he had always seen that Chi Huo had an innate ability. He was born with the ability to spit out a pillar of fire. The power was so strong that he could challenge immortal cultivators head-on. Weaker opponents would be burned to death by his fire. Furthermore, one's innate ability was an ability that would accompany one's entire life. It could continuously improve as one's strength increased. He had great potential.
However, envy was envy. Whether or not one's talent could be awakened and whether or not one had the potential to be awakened was not up to them. It required luck and time. Perhaps it would awaken naturally. No one knew the process of awakening. If there were a thousand possibilities, there would be a thousand possibilities.
When he broke through to a demon beast, Di Shitian had also carefully examined himself. He did not find any signs of awakening his innate ability at all. He didn't expect that his innate ability should be in the King Mark on his forehead. Coupled with the strange ability of the King Mark to devour souls, he couldn't help but associate it with the story of 'helping a tiger do evil'.
After pondering, Di Shitian was eager to know if he had really awakened his innate ability. He didn't care about collecting the storage bags of the five immortal cultivators. He stood in place, closed his eyes, and probed the purple King Mark on his forehead with his demon sense.
"Huh! How could this be? "
As he probed, Sakra's heart suddenly changed. He wasn't surprised or surprised, because he discovered something strange. His entire body was his own, and it was extremely easy for him to use his Demonic Sense to probe anywhere. However, when he probed the purple King Mark on his forehead, he discovered something inconceivable.
The purple King Mark did indeed have a mysterious power. There seemed to be a strange space within the King Mark. The space was not large, and it was very spacious inside. It was filled with a layer of purple liquid. It filled the entire space. Rather than calling it a space, it would be better to call it a pool. Within the purple pool, he saw the five immortal cultivators that he had seen being sucked in. They were astonishingly appearing in the purple pool.
They were constantly struggling, trying to climb out of the purple pool.
However, no matter how hard they struggled, they were unable to climb out of the pool.
The purple pool seemed to be filled with a mysterious power that continuously entered the bodies of the five immortal cultivators. It seemed that the immortal cultivator wanted to assimilate the five immortal cultivators with the purple pool. It was very strange.
However, there was something strange about this. He could only use the purple King Mark on his forehead to absorb the immortal cultivators. He could not use any of its other mysterious abilities.
"Strange. I can clearly feel that the power of the King Mark is far from just this. It has great potential and contains even more mysterious abilities. However, I can only feel it, but I can't grasp how to use it."
Di Shitian muttered to himself. Although he did not know what kind of ability he had awakened, just the ability to absorb immortal cultivators' souls was already extremely extraordinary. However, now was not the time to carefully examine his innate ability. Thus, after learning a little about the power of his King Mark, he refocused his mind. His originally closed eyes quickly opened.
His two hind legs pushed off the ground, and his sturdy tiger body leaped into the air. He naturally landed in front of the five immortal cultivators' corpses. He quickly swept his gaze over them and took out their storage pouches. He put them in his own storage pouch and carefully searched through them. Sakra's gaze suddenly congealed, with a trace of coldness.
Looking at the five corpses, he thought to himself, "The bodies of immortal cultivators contain far more essence than ordinary animals. I can't waste it."
He had already eaten them once before, so he did not have much of a psychological burden to do this again. After all, they were already dead. They were just empty shells. Even if he did not eat them, they would be eaten by other birds and beasts. Now was the time to think of all possible methods to increase his strength. He could not let go of any opportunity to increase his strength.
As he thought about this, his tiger body immediately trembled. Waves of demonic aura immediately surged out from his countless pores. At the same time, his originally normal-sized tiger body could be seen rapidly expanding.
One zhang — —
Two zhang — —
Di Shitian's body could be seen growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, he had become an enormous creature that was at least five zhang tall. The majestic tiger aura spread out like a tide. The domineering aura caused the surrounding atmosphere to become stifling. It was incomparably ferocious.
"Hu!!"
He opened his tiger mouth. At this moment, the tiger's mouth was like a huge black hole. It sucked in the air in front of him, and in an instant, a violent gust of wind rose from the ground. The five corpses were swept up into the air by the gust of wind. Under a terrifying pulling force, they were swallowed one by one into his stomach.
"Hum!!"
Just as Di Shitian swallowed the corpses into his stomach, the Demon-refining Cauldron that had been silently revolving in the Yao Mansion all this time, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Suddenly, it trembled and emitted a snow-white jade light. A strange devouring force was emitted from the cauldron.
This devouring power directly rushed out of the Demon Manor and entered Sakra's body. Immediately, it firmly wrapped around the five bodies that had been swallowed and quickly brought them into the Demon Manor. Moreover, it easily entered the Yao Mansion. At this moment, the Demon-refining Cauldron became even more excited. The jade light emitted from the cauldron condensed into long snow-white ropes, which danced nimbly in the Yao Mansion.
"Crash!!" A few sounds were heard.
The five corpses were wrapped up by the long ropes and quickly brought into the Demon-refining Cauldron.
Strangely enough, when these corpses approached the Demon-refining Cauldron, they naturally began to shrink. They were so small that the Demon-refining Cauldron immediately sucked them all in.
"Dang!!"
In the Yao Mansion, a sparkling cauldron lid suddenly flew out of nowhere and covered the Demon-refining Cauldron. For a moment, the light was dazzling.
The Demon-refining Cauldron's rotation speed suddenly increased. One round after another, it spun continuously, bringing with it the surrounding jade light. It was like the Milky Way in the starry sky, flowing strangely around the jade cauldron.
"So the Demon-refining Cauldron actually has such a function. Not only can it refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon, it can also refine the bodies of living creatures, extract the essence of the bodies, and finally condense it into demon essence. No wonder, no wonder the Heaven-Grade Yao Mansion. Even in the ancient times, when the Yao Clan was at its peak, countless Yao Clans yearned to open it up. "
Since Di Shitian's appearance, he had seen everything without missing a single detail. When he saw the Demon-refining Cauldron swallow several corpses together, not only was he not shocked, but he also felt a burst of joy.
He could feel that the Demon-refining Cauldron was constantly refining those corpses. It wanted to refine their flesh, blood, and bones into the purest essence.
If Di Shitian were to absorb it himself according to the original method, he would only be able to absorb about sixty to seventy percent of the essence. However, the Demon-refining Cauldron was refining all the power in their bodies into essence. This kind of refinement was a hundred percent refinement. Moreover, the essence refined was even purer.
This discovery would definitely save him a lot of time for cultivation.
After a short observation, he let the Demon-refining Cauldron operate on its own. He opened his eyes, shook his body, and his huge body shrank again. In the blink of an eye, he was back to his original size.
The commotion just now was too big. Di Shitian did not stay in this area any longer. He turned and ran back to the Myriad Demon Valley. This time, he had obtained too much information. He had to go back to the valley and carefully organize it.
