A Mortal's Journey: Starting as the Young Master of Demonic Cultivation

Chapter 40 Mysterious Bone Master

"Why did you decide to move your cave dwelling, young master?" Qingyu asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just feel that this Chaotic Star Sea is probably going to descend into chaos soon," Wen Tianren replied calmly.

Hearing Wen Tianren say this, Zi Ling, who was standing to the side, felt the most emotional. She had been running the Miaoyin Sect with her mother for many years and had increasingly felt that the Chaotic Star Sea was full of undercurrents and various forces were eager to make their moves. Beneath the calm surface, there was a hidden danger, like the calm before the storm.

Wen Tianren's decision to relocate to this place was actually for a deeper purpose. During this trip to the Void Heaven Palace, Liu Dao and Wan Sangu would have the long-prepared Anti-Star Alliance make its debut in the Chaotic Star Sea.

If he stayed in Tianxing City, this master of formations might be forced into manual labor, and he was unwilling to get involved in that mess.

Therefore, he plans to continue his arduous cultivation on Miaoyin Island in hopes of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

……

Three days later.

While Wen Tianren was talking with Yuan Yao and the other two women.

Suddenly, a clear, melodious sound emanated from him, so crisp and pleasant that everyone who heard it was taken aback.

Immediately afterward, Yuan Yao's eyes lit up: "Husband, is the Void Heaven Palace about to open?!"

Wen Tianren nodded, a slight smile playing on his lips, and took out a slightly worn yellow brocade handkerchief from his clothes.

The previously blank and blurry image has now been completely transformed.

A pattern of a small golden sword appeared on the entire handkerchief. No matter how Wen Tianren turned the handkerchief, the sword would slowly point straight to the northwest, and a red line shot out from the tip of the sword, extending straight to the edge of the handkerchief.

The three women gathered around, their eyes filled with astonishment.

They had long heard of the Void Heaven Remnant Map, but had never seen the real thing. They never expected that such an ordinary old handkerchief would have such a miraculous reaction after the Void Heaven Palace was opened.

Wen Tianren reached out and grabbed the incomplete map.

"Finally, the Void Heaven Palace has opened! While I'm away, you should all stay on Mystic Sound Island and make the best of it. If you encounter a powerful enemy, do not fight them head-on; just focus on preserving your lives." Wen Tianren instructed the three women again upon seeing the Void Heaven Palace open.

Zi Ling covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes sparkling: "Alright, husband, we sisters are all Core Formation cultivators, how could we be so weak and helpless? We'll wait for you to return on the island. With the life-saving methods you gave us, even a Nascent Soul cultivator might not be able to capture us. Don't worry, husband."

After exchanging some instructions with Zi Ling and the other two women, Wen Tianren got up and went into the insect chamber of the cultivation room.

Inside the insect chamber, hundreds of Void Heaven Demon Bees were fluttering among the spiritual flowers and herbs beside their nest. With a wave of his hand, Wen Tianren put all the hundreds of Void Heaven Demon Bees, along with their nest, into his spirit beast bag.

Over the years, thanks to his careful nurturing, most of these Void Heaven Demon Bees have transformed into purple bees with purplish-black crystal armor and spatial supernatural powers.

Moreover, the sonic waves released by the swarm of bees even greatly affected his Nascent Soul stage divine sense. In a battle against an opponent of the same level, this could be considered a killing move.

The only drawback is that the number of Void Heaven Demon Bees is too small, unlike the Gold Devouring Insects, which can number in the tens of thousands, covering the sky and devouring the earth. No matter what methods Wen Tianren tried, he could not increase the reproduction rate of the bee colony.

Wen Tianren hung the spirit beast bag on his waist, then walked out of the cave and transformed into a purple streak of light, flying towards the outside of Tianxing City.

A hundred miles outside the city, he summoned the Kui Water Thunder Cloud. The dark clouds surged, and lightning snakes darted about, carrying him like a meteor as he sped off in the northwest.

……

Several days later, in a certain open sea area.

The desolate land, which was usually deserted by cultivators, has become unusually lively lately.

Every now and then, cultivators would rush to this place, and then fly up into the sky with great joy. However, the killing also increased a lot. Many cultivators were caught off guard and were killed and robbed in their joy.

There, a magnificent palace floated motionless in the air.

This palace is about a hundred feet high, with carved beams and painted rafters, flying eaves and brackets. It is made entirely of pure white jade, extremely exquisite and beautiful, emitting a faint glow. Every part of the palace is exquisitely carved and extremely beautiful.

The palace was surrounded by a thick golden light shield, hanging in the sky about a thousand feet high, like a shining star.

Those cultivators who followed the map flew towards the palace without hesitation. After a flash of white light, they easily passed through the light barrier and entered the palace.

On this day, a dark cloud that blotted out the sun suddenly ripped across the sky and sped towards the palace, stopping abruptly when it reached the sea below.

The dark clouds gradually dissipated, revealing Wen Tianren's figure. He was quietly hidden in a corner, his expression calm. His hands were behind his back, and his purple robe fluttered in the sea breeze.

At this moment, a crimson cloud flew by rapidly and stopped not far from the white jade flying boat.

Then the red clouds dispersed, and an old man with a full head of red hair appeared there, clutching a yellowed brocade handkerchief tightly in his hand.

He glanced down at the brocade handkerchief, then looked up at the sky without hesitation. He immediately saw the palace in the sky, and his face lit up with ecstatic joy.

Immediately afterwards, without thinking, he transformed into a red cloud again and flew into the sky.

A flash of white light appeared on the old man's body, and then he disappeared into the golden light barrier.

"It's time to go in!"

Wen Tianren emerged from the shadows and then used the Transformation Technique from the Xuan Yin Scripture. His aura changed drastically, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a handsome, refined, and elegant scholar.

Then it quickly transformed into a stream of light and arrived in front of the golden light shield that enveloped the Void Heaven Palace.

Clutching the fragment of the Void Heaven Map in his hand, he infused it with magical power, and instantly white spiritual light burst forth from the fragment, enveloping him.

Then Wen Tianren took a light step and walked through the golden light barrier as if he were nothing.

Flying into this hall, looking up, one sees the hall gate hanging more than ten feet high, with three large silver ancient seal characters above it—"Xutian Hall".

These three characters are not only impressive in their imposing presence, but their strokes are also extremely sharp and incisive.

"This actually contains the will of a profound cultivator. If one's spiritual sense is not strong enough, looking at it for too long might cause a backlash!"

Of course, this was no problem for Wen Tianren, who had a strong spiritual sense. Instead, he stopped and looked at the words carefully.

Unable to discern anything amiss, Wen Tianren stepped into the palace. Upon entering the palace, a straight, narrow passage appeared before him.

The inner walls of the passage were made of exquisite white jade, with a faint, protective aura floating on the surface. As soon as one's divine sense probed out, it was as if it had hit an iron wall and was violently bounced back.

Clearly, the entire passage has been placed under a restriction by someone with great supernatural powers, preventing divine sense from penetrating it.

Just a few days before Wen Tianren entered the Void Heaven Palace, Han Li on the other side had just used his "team wipe engine" attribute and barely managed to escape from the hands of an old monster.

Han Li controlled the Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword to transform it into a giant sword, then disassembled the giant sword into seven smaller swords, which he then summoned back to his side. At the same time, countless Gold-Eating Insects swarmed around him, their eyes warily watching the young man in front of them who was wielding the Azure Bamboo Arrow.

"If you are truly the master of the Extreme Yin Demon, you must be over a thousand years old by now. In this vast Chaotic Star Sea, besides the Twin Saints and others, I, Han, know no one else with such supernatural abilities. I find your words truly hard to believe!"

Opposite him, a seemingly young cultivator stood on a small bamboo arrow, chuckling coldly, his eyes flashing with a sinister light: "Hehe, that little thief Ji Yin is naturally my traitorous disciple! You don't know my name, that's because you're ignorant. Before I cultivated the Profound Soul Refining Demon Technique, I had already lived for over six hundred years. After I switched to this technique and transformed into a Profound Soul Body, I was trapped here for another three or four hundred years. But it's all thanks to my Profound Soul Body! Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have already passed away by now."

Hearing the old demon who looked like a young man say this, Han Li believed what the man said.

After all, he had personally witnessed this person possess his avatar.

If he weren't extremely familiar with this secret technique, with his current cultivation level, he would never have been able to accomplish this so easily.

And this secret technique of creating an external avatar originated from the Island of Extreme Yin, so it must be quite good.
