Chapter 641: 234. The Corpse Buddha’s Body Breaks Through Profound Yellow (6.2K words – Please Subscribe!)

The bamboo mountain is deserted; Song Yan just happens to return alone.

After he departed, those in the hall did not disperse, and the conversation continued.

Elder Dan said, “Youquan has already told me. This young one truly has monstrous talent. The speed of his cultivation is exceedingly rare in the world.”

A cultivator said, “No matter how fast, it can’t be possible to instantly enter Divinity Transformation, right? We all heard about it.”

Elder Dan said, “Sun gives birth to Profound Qi, while Taiyin gives rise to Comprehension.

In the world, if the flame of the sun dims, the number of cultivators will become fewer and fewer. If the flame of Taiyin lessens, the True Spirit Light will extinguish first, causing cultivators to pay a hundred-fold, a thousand-fold, even ten thousand-fold of the usual effort to cultivate.

When there are many people in this Great Thousand Worlds, and time runs long, one or two prodigies will inevitably appear. Song Yan is precisely such a one; if my estimation is correct, he possesses Innate Taiyin Talent.

You all know the previous individual with this talent…”

Elder Dan paused and said, “The Palace Master of the Five Spirits Celestial Demon Palace in the Demon Mountain Star Realm.”

Upon hearing this, everyone showed a look of astonishment.

Of course, they were aware of this fearsome Great Demon, but they never thought such a secret existed about him.

Elder Dan continued, “The Five Spirits Evil Technique was also created by that Great Demon personally.

At present, in such a short time, the Five Spirits Celestial Demon Palace has become the most troubling force in the Myriad Swords Star Realm.

They sail on giant corpses, spread seeds of Evil Thought, cultivate Divine Thought Celestial Demons; disperse the evil energy of corpse life, perhaps mixed with the word ’after’ from that Forbidden Talisman to nurture Netherworld creatures; and draw nutrients from the Five Spirits from across a world for the use of their disciples. Truly astonishing and cruel beyond limits.

They sail across the Celestial Nether, akin to pirates roaming the seas, robbing everywhere…their ability to remain standing is all due to that Palace Master.

The achievement of such grand enterprise by the power of a mere single individual.

Now that I’ve said this, can you understand Song Yan’s value?”

The hall was extremely quiet.

Wang Youquan reacted, muttering “Innate Taiyin Talent” twice before suddenly saying, “Elder Dan, you explain this without reservation, could it be…”

Elder Dan said, “Indeed, just a small trick to lure them in.

I intended to turn Song Yan into a bait.

The Innate Taiyin Talent of that Great Demon from the Five Spirits Celestial Demon Palace is unique in this Great Thousand Worlds. If he learns of another person with it, he will naturally develop the notion that one mountain cannot house two tigers.

Even better is that Di Cunxin, who cultivates the “Dragon Burial Law,” will testify to my words.

Our Celestial Wondrous Sword Palace has long desired to destroy the Five Spirits Celestial Demon Palace; this time, we merely seize the opportunity.”

Wang Youquan said, “But…”

Elder Dan seemed to understand what he wanted to say and directly said, “Do not think that only he is at risk. If there is an opportunity to eliminate the Five Spirits Celestial Demon Palace, such a world-destroying tumor, how could I be reluctant to sacrifice myself?

And why would you hesitate?

Moreover, among the exceptional talents of the Sword Palace through the ages, who hasn’t carved a blood path through impossibilities? If they change their minds halfway and miss it, it is fate; if they can continue together, they will become powerful Sword Cultivators admired by all.”

Wang Youquan sighed and said, “But he is still just a young fellow who hasn’t even broken through the Profound Yellow Realm.”

Elder Dan said, “He bears the Wa Text Curse, how long he can live is still unknown; for now, let him be a bait.”

As he spoke, he suddenly said, “Youquan, did he complete the training at the Pole Sword Platform within less than a year?”

Wang Youquan said, “Indeed. On the surface, I showed no reaction, but I was truly astonished. It’s too unbelievable; other talents take at least a hundred years to succeed, yet he completed it in less than a year.”

Elder Dan said, “Then spread the word. You later create those scenes into a showcase with Divine Thought…

After saying this, he ignored Wang Youquan and continued, “As for Skin Making, send whatever skin he wants first.

In truth, there is no expectation for him to make a remarkable Shadow Puppet, as it merely borrows Divine Thought, a small path of Divine Image.

This act is just to make him feel that everything is an equal exchange, preventing him from feeling a sense of debt and failing to achieve Perfection.”

…

…

Next day…

Before Song Yan awaited the second teacher, he was greeted by beast hides first.

With a loud slap, beast hides fell from the sky.

They were high-quality hides from Divinity Transformation Demon Beasts, with a strange power still flowing beneath them—this power was the origin of the “Crimson Palace Blood.”

View from a small world, Divinity Transformation Demon Beasts are quite rare. But in the Vast Sea domain with limitless worlds and places of unrest and turmoil, the Celestial Wondrous Sword Palace arranges Sword Cultivators to slay demons, restore order, and these slayed Divinity Transformation Demon Beasts become materials stored in the Celestial Wondrous Sword Palace’s treasury.

However, the hides of Divinity Transformation Demon Beasts are merely considered as trinkets, typically purchased by cultivators using one to several Ordinary Starfire Spirit Stones, then transformed into resources sent into one’s own natal world by Elder Crane for the use of future generations.

Nevertheless, even if they are to be given, finished products are relatively common, but plain hides are scarce.

The disciple delivering the skins said, “The Elder said this beast hide is the bottom drawer unwanted item, calculated as one Ordinary Starfire Spirit Stone. You may owe it first until you’ve made the Shadow Puppet, then it will be appraised and estimated. The excess profit will be counted towards the resources provided for you.

You must understand, even if your talent is good, everything needs to be purchased by yourself. Understood, Song Yan?”
