Chapter 1673 - 1474: Half-step Immortal

The ingestion of four or five demon cores of seventh, even eighth grade, made Ye Guichen feel that the whole world had become wondrous.

Unlike the first time he consumed a demon core.

This time, Ye Guichen didn't lose consciousness.

Although he still felt a burning power rolling within his body, his consciousness remained firm.

Unexpectedly, as the demon core entered his body, Ye Guichen felt a peculiar power beginning to digest the demon core.

The speed of digestion was so fast, it left Ye Guichen somewhat stunned.

In less than three minutes, a demon core had already been digested, transformed into Ye Guichen's cultivation power.

Ye Guichen only felt his body filled with power, and his control over his body became more adept.

However, he still couldn't escape from the body of the Nine Grade Demon.

All he could do was continue to wait.

And so, not knowing how many days passed, Ye Guichen completely digested all those demon cores.

His cultivation level skyrocketed as if on a rocket.

All at once, Ye Guichen directly leaped over the Divinity Transformation Realm, entering the Mahayana Realm, even just a step away from ascending to immortality.

"This, this is too miraculous!"

Ye Guichen was thrilled beyond measure.

He felt his connection with those swords becoming more intimate.

Even under the immersion of his mind, he found that his soul's power had strengthened significantly.

He glimpsed inside his body at the Jiuyou Tower.

He was stunned by what he saw: the originally pitch-black tower body had turned into a dazzling gold.

It didn't resemble the Jiuyou Tower from the underworld at all, instead, it seemed to be a sacred tower blessed by Buddhist power.

What was happening?

Ye Guichen had a head full of questions, yet he knew nothing.

During the time he was unconscious, he had no memory of what happened.

As he reached out his hand, Ye Guichen found that he was not only able to move freely but had fully regained control of his body.

"Haha, I'm out!"

He didn't care about anything else and laughed heartily, as a thought crossed his mind.

The thousands of immortal swords wrapped in membranes seemed to awaken suddenly.

Ye Guichen was startlingly pleased to find that the Sword Spirits within each immortal sword had awakened.

"The Immortal Swords, they've all awakened?" Ye Guichen couldn't believe it as he slightly sensed.

Indeed!

The tens of thousands of treasured swords had all restored their Immortal Sword powers.

Which meant that now Ye Guichen could unleash the ultimate Wan Jian Gui Zong technique with just a thought.

This was the most powerful swordsmanship of the Carefree Sword Immortal.

Once unleashed, even without the power to split the heavens and earth, slaying an immortal would be as easy as flipping one's hand.

"This feels amazing!"

Ye Guichen immersed his mind among the thousands of Immortal Swords, suddenly shouting, "Wan Jian Gui Zong!"

"Buzz Buzz Buzz!"

Thousands of Immortal Swords emitted buzzing sounds, as though they had heard Ye Guichen's words.

They all broke free from the membrane's constrains and slashed directly outward.

However, the fact remained, they were inside the body of a Nine Grade Demon, and even for Immortal Swords, cutting through was not easy.

But the power of Wan Jian Gui Zong was indeed formidable.

Ye Guichen raised his hand, and the Immortal Slayer Sword directly appeared in his hand.

Ye Guichen stepped forward, transforming his form into a streak of light.

The Immortal Slayer Sword showed a delighted expression, as if sensing the boundless power bursting from Ye Guichen's body, its Sword Qi surged exponentially.

Wherever it reached, it was invincible.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Moments later, Ye Guichen used the Immortal Slayer Sword to slice through the Nine Grade Demon's body and dashed out, escaping the demon's interior, reaching outside.

The Nine Grade Demon hadn't expected a living being inside, emitting a scream and turned its head sharply, wanting to slay Ye Guichen.

However, it was too late.

After the Immortal Slayer Sword had cut open the Nine Grade Demon, Wan Jian Gui Zong unleashed its terrific power.

One by one Immortal Swords shot directly out of the demon's body, stabbing it full of holes.

Yet, the Nine Grade Demon, a Nine Grade Demon indeed, in its death throes, it pondered fleeing.

How could Ye Guichen let it escape?

Now Ye Guichen, even with his eyes closed, could see clearly within a few miles radius, even an ant's leg.

He instantly spotted the Nine Grade Demon's golden Demon Core.

"Seize it for me!"

As Ye Guichen's words fell, the Immortal Sword that hadn't flown out from the demon's body shot towards the location of the Demon Core.

Furthermore, under the combined assault of several Immortal Swords, the Nine Grade Demon's Demon Core seemed to possess Spiritual Sense, trying to flee.

Yet Ye Guichen would not let it go.

After a few clashes, Ye Guichen chopped the Nine Grade Demon into pieces, directly extracting its Demon Core.

He stepped forward, grabbed the Demon Core, and swallowed it whole.

After ingestion, Ye Guichen's reaction wasn't as intense as imagined.

Moreover, the digestion speed slowed down significantly.

The Demon Core merely stayed in Ye Guichen's stomach, with no unusual effect.

"Strange, could it be that this Nine Grade Demon's Demon Core is too powerful to digest easily?"

Ye Guichen originally thought of using the Demon Core's power to potentially become an immortal.

But he realized he might have oversimplified the situation.

"You're actually not dead?"

At this moment, an excited voice sounded.

Ye Guichen raised his head and saw Chu Chu staring at him, a peculiar expression on her face, her eyes darting around, examining him up and down.

Ye Guichen looked down and instantly understood.

He swiftly peeled some skin off the Nine Grade Demon, quickly wrapping it around himself, temporarily forming clothes.
