Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

Chapter 965: Chapter 634: Breakthrough to Rank 7_2

There was always a sense of unease in his mind.

[Remaining Demon Lifespan: Two Hundred and One Tribulations]

Shen Yi adjusted his mentality slightly and then consolidated a Demon-suppressing Stone. He immediately began reshaping the Demon Soul.

Exchanging nine tribulations of lifespan for a seventh-grade Great Demon, which would be handy to take care of affairs on ordinary days, was not a loss, especially since it also allowed him to learn many things he did not previously know.

As the Demon Lifespan elapsed, a palm-sized grey Rat Demon lay trembling in Shen Yi’s palm.

At this size, it would not even qualify to become a demon in Hongze, let alone in the Divine Land.

At this moment, it didn’t even dare to reveal its humanoid form, which showed the extent of its psychological trauma from being clubbed into a pulp.

"Guard the door."

Shen Yi put down his hand, and the old rat scuttled to the corner near the door.

Thereafter, his gaze finally rested upon the Three Tribulations Lotus Platform Technique.

He now understood that in the Divine Land, above the Dao Realm, there were at least two paths that diverged. If one continued to cultivate spells, one could ascend to the True Immortal Realm. If one cultivated the flesh instead, one would be known as a Traveler.

But whether Traveler or True Immortal, both were of the seventh grade.

"Why does Master Zhi Kong seem so much stronger than you?"

"Replying to my lord, Master Zhi Kong has perfected the Three Tribulations Lotus Platform and is currently cultivating the Six Tribulations Lotus Platform Method. With each additional tribulation, the Lotus Platform increases by one grade, adding three flowers and nine petals," the Spirit Light Rat said somewhat guiltily. "He is at the Five Tribulations Lotus Platform, and I... I am at two."

"How many tribulations of the Lotus Platform are needed to uphold a fruit position?" Shen Yi recalled Master Zhi Kong’s reminder and looked again at this old rat. Clearly, it had stolen the Dragon Tiger Scripture, but its strength had evidently not improved at all.

At this, regret tinged with sobs crept into the Spirit Light Rat’s voice: "Even the most ordinary fruit position requires the Nine Tribulations Lotus Platform, which in terms of strength can compare with a sixth-grade Immortal Official... I was blinded by my greed that day. I intended to steal a book of the Six Tribulations Lotus Platform Technique, but somehow got confused and ended up taking this Dragon Tiger Scripture instead."

"Sigh."

Shen Yi listened silently, then slowly exhaled.

With the Dragon Tiger Scripture in hand, to achieve the Dragon Tiger Fruit Position, something was still missing. It was uncertain whether his luck had run out or if he would encounter more figures like Master Zhi Kong.

Or perhaps...

Shen Yi glanced stealthily at the Spirit Light Rat. Since even a rat could join the sect, it indicated that not all within the Bodhi Sect were Cultivators. Several more Demon-suppressing Stones could complete this path just the same.

Of course, apart from that, directly joining the Bodhi Sect was also a viable option.

He’d take it one step at a time.

Having just joined a faction with unclear details, he needed to prepare some life-saving skills.

Shen Yi absorbed the Traveler Ling Guang into his panel, then quickly poured the Demon Lifespan into the Three Tribulations Lotus Technique.

[First Tribulation: Traveler Ling Guang preaches and imparts the scripture; you listen with your heart, silently reciting the text, using this supreme and profound technique to protect a compassionate heart, beginning your journey in the world.]

One hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred years of travel, experiencing the changes of heaven and earth.

This was a trial for the flesh.

For other Cultivators, it was an outdated almanac, the most time-consuming trial of the flesh. For Shen Yi, it was the easiest.

His gaze gradually became diffuse and then constantly refocused until it was clearer than ever, filled with thunder and gusty winds, mountains and lakes, down to the minutest petal and leaf.

Flower petals fell and leaves wilted from his eyes, seemingly settling into his chest and abdomen.

Three flowers and nine petals, all jade white, slowly bloomed, revealing the Lotus Platform within.

Then petals scattered, flowing into his limbs and throughout his veins, as if rewashing his body.

Shen Yi sat cross-legged on the bed, his expression gradually becoming serene.

It was a deposition that came with crossing one tribulation and traversing mountains and seas.

Beneath his ink robe, his skin began to emit a luminous gold, making his entire being seem like the rising sun.

As more Demon Lifespan was infused.

New petals sprung up on the Lotus Platform, continuing the previous process.

Until the end of the three tribulations, when the scripture could no longer protect his mind, Shen Yi’s vision was shrouded by countless illusions clawing towards him!

He shivered all over, abruptly waking up.

Once the scripture lost its effect, he had to confront the true tribulations.

"Heh! Heh!"

He panted heavily, only having glanced once, and his whole body was already drenched with sweat.

The golden light between his skin faded, and the jade white petals reconvened on the Lotus Platform.

With nine flowers and twenty-seven petals slightly opening and closing, there always seemed to be something missing on the platform.

[Seventh Grade. Three Tribulations Lotus Platform Technique: Perfection]

[Remaining Demon Lifespan: One Hundred and Eighty-Nine Tribulations]

Shen Yi regulated his breathing and looked again at his palm. It seemed no different than before, but as his fingers closed in a slight curl, his breaths and the blossoming rhythm of the Lotus Platform within him were synchronized as if an extra heart had formed.

The petals were the most refined Spiritual Energy transformed from heaven and earth.

The power brought about by this Lotus Platform had far exceeded the scope of the Dao Realm.

Seventh grade, Traveler Realm!

Shen Yi closed his eyes, feeling it deeply for a long time, then realized that this power still fell short of the White Rhinoceros Seal.

It seemed normal to think about it; the White Rhinoceros Seal represented the formidable power of the Immortal Court. Compared to an individual, it was boundless, although an Immortal Official could only use a part of the power within their responsibility.

That was the limit of the seventh grade.

And for the Traveler’s path, according to the description of the Spirit Light Rat Demon, the seventh grade was also divided into two levels. His current Three Tribulations was only halfway through, while the full extent would be reached at the Six Tribulations. Perhaps only at that level could he match the White Rhinoceros Seal.

To break through to the sixth grade would require the power of the Nine Tribulations Lotus Platform.
