Chapter 189: Demonic Spirit Demonic Cultivator

The poison of the earth lung lay in its power to corrode and erode, just like the poison of the bones.

Once infected, it could not be removed so easily, and it would spread throughout the entire body like wildfire.

Furthermore, Chen Jingzhai’s poison technique was using the poison of the earth lung as a source of its power.

These two factors and their double effects were able to leave their traces on the black jade turtle’s shell.

The four limbs and the head of the black jade turtle had not been spared. Once these body parts were touched by the poison, it could not get rid of it, and the effect was made apparent immediately.

The gigantic black jade turtle now fell victim to its own shortcoming, and it was in unbearable pain.

It began to shrink into the turtle shell while continuing to toss and turn, but unfortunately to no avail.

After waiting for a while, Chen Jingzhai made his move. A sword, condensed with golden light, flew out.

It was a direct hit on the turtle’s abdomen, about three inches from the tail. It penetrated easily enough.

With a ripple, a turtle pearl fell into the water.

…

The breath of the black jade turtle quickly weakened and eventually perished under the corrosion of the venom.

Chen Jingzhai shook his head. Although he still felt some pity in his heart, he was used to it by now.

In fact, all kinds of spirits and monsters in this Demon Subduing Tower could be taken by him.

To the others, this was cruel and unbearable, but Chen Jingzhai was able to subdue them with the help of the Primordial Essence World.

Sadly, whether it was demonic beasts or demonic beasts materials, he was unable to take them with him.

They did not belong to him, and even if he wanted to take them into the Primordial Essence World, it would not be possible.

Spiritual treasures had their own power, especially those under the control of the spirit of the cave residence.

The restriction that was in the sky was not covered by the ocean. When Chen Jingzhai got there, there were only two prizes.

It seemed that there was a delay in time so he did not meet all the requirements for three prizes.

Chen Jingzhai did not care so much about that, as he looked at the two prizes with curiosity in his eyes.

The first prize was the Turtle Respiration Pill, which could bring the taker to fall into a state of turtle respiration.

But what was truly precious was that one could comprehend the inspiration in the state of turtle respiration.

If the comprehension was successful, one could directly begin condensing the Golden Core as soon as one awakened.

Although this excellent Grade 3 elixir was in an inferior grade and its quality was not ideal, it was no common potion.

Chen Jingzhai was in a bind. He was, in fact, very confident in himself and did not think that he wouldn’t reach the Core Plane.

But according to the principles of the cultivators, anything that they came across that could be of use must be taken away without exception.

He set his sight on the second prize.

It turned out to be a set of twelve turtle pearls, four each in the color of pink, white jade, and black jade.

Chen Jingzhai thought for a moment and decisively chose the second set of prizes.

First of all, the turtle pearls were the main ingredients for making the Turtle Respiration Pill.

Second, the turtle pearls could be used to make magic treasures or even combine magic treasures.

Whether it was for its current value of potential usage or its future value, the turtle pearls were a much better choice.

After he made the selection, Chen Jingzhai did not hesitate any longer and walked directly into the restriction.

The 22nd floor.

Vast and empty, with nothing in sight—this was all that Chen Jingzhai saw.

No targets, no item cauldrons, absolutely nothing.

Subconsciously, Chen Jingzhai frowned.

Just when he was about to do something, a cold and shadowy current came at him from behind him.

Chen Jingzhai was expressionless, as a long flaming dragon appeared on his chest.

Then, the dragon encircled his body, guarding him.

The cold air current slammed into the fire dragon but did not inflict any damage.

However, Chen Jingzhai discovered a trace in the air.

He picked up the wine calabash and smashed it hard in a certain direction.

Ripples filled the sky, as a white shadow appeared briefly before it disappeared just as fast.

“Is this… a demonic spirit?” Chen Jingzhai whispered to himself softly.

He did not expect to find an existence such as this in the Demon Subduing Tower.

After the death of a demonic beast, there was a high possibility that its demon soul would be left behind, which still retained its memory before death, for instance, Hei Ji.

She was created by Chen Jingzhai using the soul remnant, and she also retained some memories of her previous life.

This was not the case with the demonic spirit, which was the transformation by the pure soul power that was accidentally left over after the death of the demon soul.

It inherited part of its power during its lifetime but was without memory; its spiritual wisdom was extremely simple.

More importantly, it was naturally one with heaven and earth and came and went without a trace.

If the essence of plants and trees were a natural phenomenon generated by heaven and earth, then the demonic spirit was the result of the creation between heaven and earth.

Not only was it rare, but also it was more precious.

Some cultivators were very fond of capturing demonic spirits, for they were considered naturally formed magic treasures.

Even some sword cultivators could not resist the trend of injecting demonic spirits into their own swords.

Some cultivators even deliberately used demon souls to concoct demonic spirits, so as to upgrade their spiritual items.

This was also a shortcut to obtaining magic treasures.

This was the first time Chen Jingzhai encountered a demonic spirit, and he did not expect it to be under such circumstances.

He sighed again, feeling it was not the best circumstances. Still, he struck mercilessly.

The fire dragon pulled away from him and expanded rapidly under the urging of Chen Jingzhai.

It opened its mouth and spewed out fiery flames, allowing the fire to burn throughout the space, immolating everything.

Under such high temperatures, the demonic spirit had nowhere to run; it couldn’t even merge into the void.

However, it came next to Chen Jingzhai in an instant.

Before Chen Jingzhai could react, the demonic spirit entered his magic robe.

Just like this, the restriction emerged, indicating that the integration was a success.

“What!” Chen Jingzhai was dumbfounded, not knowing what had just happened.

“Congratulations,” the spirit of the cave residence said. “It follows you voluntarily to become the spirit of your spiritual item. According to the rules of the Demon Subduing Tower, it already belongs to you, but there are no prizes on this level.”

“Is this even a possibility?” Chen Jingzhai asked blankly.

“In the Demon Subduing Tower, the tower levels are designated according to strength, and punishment is determined according to transgressions,” the spirit of the cave residence explained indifferently. “It has no transgression to speak of, but it refused to become a tower spirit, so it was imprisoned here and stayed on this floor ever since. You are lucky that you came across it.”

It turned out that there was only one demonic spirit. No wonder the spirit of the cave residence told him that he was lucky!

After Chen Jingzhai realized it, he immediately asked, “Have I passed the test of this level?”

“Of course!” The spirit of the cave residence said, “Congratulations, you have passed the 22nd level. You are the only one in the tower right now, and you will be able to see the stone tablet of the cave residence after passing the remaining two levels.”

“I’m the only one left?” Chen Jingzhai thought about it, but was not overly surprised.

The perverted black jade turtle aside, it was not so easy to pass through either the enchantress or Xu Zixiao.

There may be only one Xu Zixiao, but there must be many substitutes for the Grade 3 physique.

Probably there were also existences such as the enchantress.

The Grade 3 combat power was difficult even for clan disciples to block without resorting to using magic treasures. Even if they were in the complete Foundation Establishment Plane, not everyone could do what Chen Jingzhai did.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Jingzhai walked through the restriction.

The 23rd level.

As soon as Chen Jingzhai set foot here, a Golden Core pressure descended.

Almost instinctively, he activated the spiritual item and quickly disappeared from where he was.

“Die!”

A low and gloomy voice entered Chen Jingzhai’s ears, sending a shudder through his body.

The powerful pressure brought a gloomy coldness with it, which swept over him like waves.

Chen Jingzhai’s body was flickering constantly, pushing his escape technique to the extreme.

It was also at this moment that he saw what his opponent looked like.

“A demon cultivator who lost the deep core?” Chen Jingzhai looked at the thing across from him and was speechless.

Green face.

Black hair.

Yellow teeth.

Green eyes.

The figure was moving about erratically, its breathing weak, but its speed unbelievably fast.

He also held a paper knife in his hand, which made him look like a paper figure.

But his body was wrapped in blue armor, and there was a tattered red cloak wrapped about his shoulders.

What was more confounding was that there were two holes in its chest and lower abdomen.

Chen Jingzhai finally understood where the image of the human-faced ghost eagle was coming from.

He did not speak either. While he flickered and escaped, there was an explosion of thunder that was heard.

This was not an illusion technique, but the thunder technique derived from the Small Heavens Cloud Forbidden Restriction.

As soon as the thunder exploded, the demonic cultivator, who had been chasing him relentlessly, stepped back until it hit the wall.

Was this it?

Chen Jingzhai found the situation rather humorous, as he waved his hand to unleash a thunder ball.

The speed of the thunder ball was not all that fast, but it was looking really good. More importantly, the thunder was real.

Crunch!

A bolt of lightning flashed across the void, and the body of the demonic cultivator was illuminated.

In mid-air, there was a strong numbness that was caused by the electric current, making it impossible for the demonic cultivator to approach Chen Jingzhai.

Thunder and lightning were the nemesis of all spirit entities, as well as demonic cultivators. It was handy to have the Small Heavens Cloud Forbidden Restriction readily at his disposal.

It was not the first time that Chen Jingzhai had encountered something like this.

So what if the demonic cultivator was powerful?

It would be killed without exception, just like chickens and cows!

Chen Jingzhai quickly dealt with the demonic cultivator and came in front of the restriction.

Three prizes emerged.

The first was the Spirit Nourishing Elixir, which could repair the damages to the soul, but it was only an Intermediate Grade 3.

The second was a hook-shaped magic treasure source.

The third was a bead with a gloomy icy air.

Chen Jingzhai thought for a moment and took away the bead, and walked into the restriction.
