Chapter 794: Major Advancement in Cultivation

The light of the Blood Moon soothed Ye Yun’s body like the Moon Goddess, while the twinkling stars revived this lifeless land. The Ancestor nearly wept as he saw Ye Yun’s Storage Treasure had already consumed one-tenth of the top-tier Immortal Spirit Stones.

"This reckless waste! Thousands of billions of top-tier Immortal Spirit Stones turned to primal energy in mere moments," the Ancestor lamented, watching Ye Yun’s charred body regenerate. The purest Immortal spirit energy now enveloped Ye Yun like flowing water.

Ye Yun’s body, once cracked like parched earth, hungrily absorbed the abundant energy. Comfort surged through him as true spiritual energy refilled his veins. A sword of condensed spirit energy materialized in his hand, its tri-colored aura rippling through the air.

Though imperfect, this new body far surpassed his old form. His skin gleamed like precious jade, exuding a faint fragrance. Immortal spirit energy saturated every fiber, lingering stubbornly.

His transformed body now resembled a supreme elixir. Blood woven from pure Immortal spirit energy coursed through him—a single drop could evaporate rivers when ignited by Fire Spirit power.

"The time is ripe," the Faceless Demon thought eagerly, morphing into black mist to seize Ye Yun’s body. Unperturbed, Ye Yun turned to gaze at the full moon behind him.

The Blood Moon pulsed in his eyes. Though feeling little, he knew his limit approached. This demonic persona born of corruption sought only strength, not dominion. Their yin-yang coexistence neared its end as the demonic energy faded.

Staring at the Blood Moon, the demon felt unexplained familiarity and weariness. After completing its purpose here at Nine Demons Burning—now transformed into cultivation grounds—a new existence would take its place. One final duty remained.

As comprehension dawned, "Ye Yun" touched the death-transcending Heavenly Immortal realm. World-destroying thunderclouds gathered over Lingyao Continent, purple lightning fracturing the sky. Sensing rising emotions, "Ye Yun" brutally crushed them within.

"Not yet…" he whispered, extinguishing feeling as the Faceless Demon breached the array. Muttering ancient words, Ye Yun shattered the full moon behind him. Fire erupted from his palm, becoming an ocean of flames that devoured the advancing black mist.

Shrill wails echoed as inferno consumed demonic fog. Watching the last wisps vanish, Ye Yun felt empty purpose. The demonic energy in his eyes dissipated like smoke.

"Pity. Should I reach the Heavenly Immortal realm someday, inherit my conviction."

Smiling at the cleared sky, his consciousness dimmed. The Ancestor watched anxiously as Ye Yun fell like a meteor. Though knowing this led to Ye Yun’s true self, the demon’s final smile haunted him—Ye Yun had rejected Heavenly Immortal power to reclaim himself.

"Enough," the Ancestor muttered, observing the revived Ye Yun. The youth frowned as memory fragments flooded in, then smiled bitterly.

He disliked this resolution, yet marveled—the demonic side had fully inherited Xuelian’s Heavenly Immortal legacy. Such terrifying comprehension! This unexpected path revealed new possibilities, merging both personas’ insights.

"Surprised by your new strength?" The Ancestor chuckled as Ye Yun tested his Earth Immortal First Level body.

"Hard to believe," Ye Yun admitted, watching tri-colored energy dance on his fingertips. But greater burdens came with this power—including inherited wills.

"My future vessel might match this," the Ancestor diverted, noting Ye Yun’s lingering sorrow. That final sacrifice—halting at Heaven’s gate for endless potential—left even observers aching.

Ye Yun stifled laughter, constrained by past choices. Still, he’d reached this through sheer will. Now confident against Eighth Level Earth Immortals, he recalled the Lava Sea King in Nine Demons Burning’s sealed depths. With Immortal Dao Sect matters settled, testing this body’s limits against such foes became imperative.

His mental energy now mapped all Lingyao Continent—every hidden treasure and danger lay bare. He’d identified geniuses rivaling Mo Wenxian, particularly a star-sword youth whose Sword Path understanding matched Du Jianyin’s. In pure skill, Ye Yun admitted inferiority.

"But the world rewards more than finesse." Ye Yun stepped forward, crossing thousands of feet effortlessly. "Could he withstand my Born as a Sword?"

Beyond Fire Spirit power, spatial laws and Thunder Spirit power remained. The latter would come during Thunder Spirit refinement. Immortal Dao Sect’s cultivation archives offered solutions—temporary ignorance didn’t concern him.

Walking the earth, Ye Yun mourned the spent Immortal Spirit Stones. The Water Spirit Dagger in his Storage Treasure drew a wry smile—useless to him now, but suitable for Qing Li’s protection. Its feeble Heavenly Immortal rules crumbled at his touch.

Though his mental energy couldn’t suppress continents like during his demonic zenith, he pierced through Tenth Level Earth Immortals’ secrets. Realms meant little now—true mastery lay in energy control. The Cleansing Immortal Heart Technique’s benefits showed clearly, enabling rapid advancement through integrated cultivation.

Space warped around him as he ascended above Nine Demons Burning. Subtle ripples marked each step—unintended, but acceptable for now. Battlefield flamboyance invited danger, yet…

"Perhaps incomplete spatial law mastery." Ye Yun shrugged, plunging into the sealed inferno. Let trials refine what study couldn’t.
