C1419 Rising

0At the same time, his aura rose and soon he broke through to the second level of the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Roar!"

When his cultivation level rose to the second level, Zhou Yan's aura rose once again, reaching the peak of the second level.

"This feels so good!"

Feeling the endless flow of true energy in his body, Zhou Yan's face revealed a look of joy.

In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Zhou Yan had actually broken through to the peak of the second stage.

"Eh?"

At this moment, a thought flashed through Zhou Yan's mind as his eyes revealed a look of doubt.

This was because he discovered that there were two forces clashing within his body.

One of them contained an ice-cold aura.

The other contained a scorching heat.

The two forces clashed against each other.

"Could this be the so-called power of ice and fire of the Nine Neonate?"

Zhou Yan muttered.

According to the Nine Infant itself, its bloodline possessed the dual attributes of ice and fire.

Once activated, its power would be extremely strong.

"Buzz..."

While he was thinking, the power of the ice and fire in his body suddenly boiled. It flowed through his meridians and gathered on Zhou Yan's left arm, forming a flaming pattern.

With the infusion of the power of the ice flames, Zhou Yan's left arm was covered in a layer of light blue scales.

A burning pain came from his left arm.

"* Roar! *"

However, in the next moment, all the pores on Zhou Yan's body exploded, and his skin cracked inch by inch as dark red blood spurted out.

"Gengci."

Zhou Yan let out a muffled groan as he spat out a large mouthful of blood, his face pale.

"Hiss..."

Zhou Yan sucked in a breath of cold air and revealed a bitter expression: "The power of the ice flame is indeed overbearing. To think that it could not even withstand the power of my physical body and almost crippled my arm."

However, Zhou Yan quickly gritted his teeth and endured as he continued to channel the power of the ice flame into his left arm.

Gradually, the wound on his left arm began to heal.

"* Roar! Roar! *"

At this moment, the Nine Infant prostrated on the ground as its body trembled uncontrollably.

It was obvious that it had also noticed this change.

It knew that if the power of ice and fire spread, it would definitely injure itself and cause its cultivation to fail.

"What's your name?" Zhou Yan asked.

"I..."

The Nine Infant hesitated for a moment before growling, "My name is Nine Infant."

"Nine Infant..."

Zhou Yan nodded slightly and thought to himself, "The Nine Neonate is an ancient ferocious beast with powerful strength. If I were to grasp its bloodline, wouldn't I be able to travel unhindered through the forest?"

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan's eyes burned with greed.

When the Nine Infant saw this kind of greed, it immediately jumped in fright and hurriedly hid to the side.

"Hehe...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Seeing that, Zhou Yan sneered and ignored it.

"Buzz...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

In the next moment, with a thought, the true essence in Zhou Yan's Dantian surged and gathered in his left arm.

In an instant, Zhou Yan's entire left arm turned scarlet gold and emitted a brilliant light.

"Hu..."

Taking a light breath, Zhou Yan put his two fingers together and drew a talisman in the air, completing the seal.

With a "huala" sound.

A golden rune appeared in the air, shining with a dazzling light and carrying an indescribable pressure.

"Roaaaar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Sensing danger, the Nine Neonate roared and opened its mouth to charge at the golden symbol.

"Bam!"

In the next instant, the symbol released a golden light and exploded.

"Whoosh!"

The Nine Neonate was caught off guard and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Damn human!"

The Nine Infant roared as it stared hatefully at Zhou Yan.

It never would have thought that Zhou Yan would actually know how to use a spell.

"* Roar! Roar! *"

Immediately after, the Nine Infant raised its head and let out a long roar that reverberated in all directions.

"Rumble..."

Under its control, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi around it suddenly started to surge into the Nine Neonate's body.

In just an instant, its injuries were healed, and its body expanded to more than three yards long.

This appearance was extremely similar to the legendary Serpent Dragon. It was terrifying, bloodthirsty, and cruel.

"Roar! Roar!"

Immediately after, it roared towards the sky and pounced towards Zhou Yan.

"Shua!"

Seeing this, Zhou Yan's pupils shrank. With a thought, a majestic Yin Yang true energy swept out from the depths of his Dantian and wrapped around his right arm.

"Suppress him!"

With a low shout, Zhou Yan waved his hand.

Immediately, the Power of Yin and Yang surged and condensed into a huge Yin Yang Millstone.

The millstone crushed through the air and let out an ear-piercing sound as it smashed into the Nine Infant's body.

"Bam!"

Under the huge impact, the Nine Infant's large body was instantly pushed back.

"Roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The Nine Infant looked at Zhou Yan in fear and once again retreated.

However, just as it took a few steps back, a sword light pierced through its neck.

"* Crack! *"

The Nine Neonate let out a miserable howl as its head fell off its neck and onto the ground.

Its consciousness had been destroyed before it even recovered.

At that moment, Zhou Yan had obtained a Demonic Core.

As for the Nine Infant, it had turned into a pile of bones and laid on the ground, lifeless.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the mission [Nine Infant]."

"System reward: 10,000 experience points."

"Please continue."

Hearing the system's notification, the corner of Zhou Yan's mouth curled up into a smile. With a wave of his hand, he picked up the Demonic Core.

"* Rumble... *"

As soon as the Demonic Core entered his hand, a strange energy instantly entered his body.

This energy was filled with a strong stench of blood and evil aura. It was like a small bomb that caused Zhou Yan's heart to tremble.

"What a strong evil aura."

Zhou Yan's eyes were filled with shock as he could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Although this killing intent was the best tonic for martial cultivators...

However, there was a huge side effect. If one was not careful, their mind would be corroded by the evil aura and they would turn into a Demonic Cultivator.

"Looks like I can't continue to absorb this wicked aura."

Zhou Yan pondered for a moment, then took out a few pieces of jade and placed them between his brows. He circulated his cultivation technique and refined the pure spiritual energy within the jade.

Not long after, the true energy in Zhou Yan's body was completely used up.

At the same time, the jade on his forehead shattered.

However, after being tempered by the jade, the quality of Zhou Yan's true energy had obviously improved by quite a bit.

Furthermore, he had even accumulated a bit of true energy in his Dantian.

As long as he found enough materials, he could try to break through to the Eighth Level of the Innate Realm.

"Hmm?"

At this moment, Zhou Yan seemed to have sensed someone approaching.

"Who is it?"

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows and looked up.

From afar, a beautiful figure slowly appeared.

Her figure was graceful, her skin was creamy, and her face was charming and beautiful. It was Yun Xi.

"Zhou Yan, are you alright?"

Yun Xi walked up to him and asked with concern.

Hearing that, Zhou Yan shook his head slightly and did not say anything.

"Since you're fine, let's hurry up and leave this place."

Seeing this, Yun Xi let out a breath and suggested, "I heard that the area around Black Water Lake is filled with poisonous insects and grass."

"Furthermore, there are non-humans living at the bottom of the lake. We might run into trouble if we stay here for too long."

"Non-humans...?"
