Chapter 1105: Undying
“This is... the Nine Refining Demon Physique?”
Point Gold Peak, Golden Soul Sect, Great Sage Immortal World.
Fang Yuan’s main body, which was in secluded cultivation, suddenly awakened and fixed his eyes on the content of the fifth page of Pantheon Catalog that had emerged in his spiritual will.
“It’s actually a body refining technique! Seems like there are even traces of Godfiends included!”
After the Torch Dragon clone had killed Sethgu, he obtained another page of the Pantheon Catalog!
However, Sethgu was originally sealed by Patriarch Patheon, so leaving behind a page of the Pantheon Catalog as the array eye was completely reasonable.
What truly moved Fang Yuan was this Nine Refining Demon Physique Technique!
“This technique... just getting started requires the origin crystal of a Primordial Godfiend. It can even strengthen your body by continuously refining the flesh and blood of otherworldly demons, speeding up your progress tremendously. At the seventh refinement, you could even temper your body to the primordial treasure level!” Fang Yuan murmured as the Nine Transference Undying Method suddenly appeared in his mind.
“Looking at it again, this Nine Refining Demon Physique has quite a lot of similarities with the Golden Soul Sect’s Nine Transference Undying Method. In fact, they even complement each other in a truly frightening manner! Wait...”
His mind flashed as he placed the two techniques together to derive even more. He chuckled. “I see... Both the Nine Transference Undying Method and the Nine Refining Demon Physique were acquired from studying the body refining techniques of otherworldly demons. The differences lie in the different understandings of Patriarch Patheon and the Golden Soul Sect’s patriarch. The Nine Refining Demon Physique is superior in its simplicity and tyrannical nature, allowing you to cultivate it directly by making use of otherworldly demons. On the other hand, the Nine Transference Undying Method lays an incomparably solid foundation step by step... Comparatively speaking, it seems like the Nine Refining Demon Physique is more suitable for me!”
Fang Yuan urgently needed a primordial treasure-level body before he could undergo his tribulation.
If he followed the slow and steady cultivation of the Nine Transference Undying Method, who knew how much time it would take. More importantly, he had limited resources, such as the Golden Flame Flowing Wind Flower. The Thirty-Three-Level Outer Heaven Tower only had a few of them, so if he wanted to cultivate to the seventh transference, it was simply and utterly inadequate.
In contrast, the Nine Refining Demon Physique required much fewer resources, and the key lay in the bodies of otherworldly demons.
“However, since when was I a stickler for a single technique? Using a real otherworldly demon as a model and these two body refining techniques as references, I can develop a new technique that is most suitable for me!”
To create something from nothing, such as magical powers or cultivation techniques, was essentially an impossible dream for other cultivators.
But Fang Yuan was different! Even though he had lost his previous cultivation, he still had his insights and knowledge.
If Patriarch Patheon and the Golden Soul Sect’s patriarch could do it, why couldn’t he?
Moreover, it was exactly creating something from nothing.
After all, the two body refining techniques were created by great cultivators who had observed the bodies of otherworldly demons, and he could draw on their experience. Within the Outer Heaven Tower, there was still an entire Primordial Godfiend suppressed there!
There was even a large quantity of Dao Comprehension Stones that could act as fuel to push forward greater progress.
Finally, his clone would cultivate it first as an experiment. Afterward, he could modify the flaws to improve on any deficiencies in the technique.
“If I do this... I should probably apply early for an external mission from the sect!”
Fang Yuan’s eyes flickered indefinitely as he entered deep cultivation.
...
On the thirty-third level of the Thirty-Three-Level Outer Heaven Tower!
Fang Yuan’s Torch Dragon clone arrived here, and with one thought, the ground split open and a black altar emerged.
On the altar was an indomitable Primordial Godfiend exuding a ferocious aura. It was wearing black armor and had a horned helmet.
Presently, both of its eyes were shut tight, clearly in a deep sleep.
This was the normal state of this Primordial Godfiend. Fang Yuan had to take the initiative to wake it.
Otherwise, the entire Outer Heaven Tower would be turned upside down.
“Indeed... This Godfiend is even more terrifying than the two Ice and Fire Godfiends... This body is certainly at the primordial treasure level. No wonder even the Outer Heaven Tower can’t kill it!” Fang Yuan’s eyes twitched.
With the help of the stele, his spiritual will entered the Primordial Godfiend’s body to observe the structure of its flesh, as well as those items hidden deep within it.
“The Nomological Laws of Time are clearly not something that reaches perfection through comprehension alone. I’m still missing one last thing that I don’t understand... I’ll be wasting the Dao Comprehension Stones if I continue with it, so I might as well use them to derive my new technique!”
After seven days of observing the Primordial Godfiend, Fang Yuan immediately went into secluded cultivation again. By making use of a large amount of Dao Comprehension Stones, he forcefully sped up the technique’s progression.
One hundred days passed by just like that.
“... From an otherworldly demon to carrying on with the Nine Transference Undying Method and then the Nine Refining Demon Physique, this technique can be named as the Undying Demon Body!”
Fang Yuan smiled slightly as the hundreds of Dao Comprehension Stones in front of him turned into ashes.
The reeds swayed, wind and rain suddenly appeared, and the sky changed drastically.
“Who would have thought that... deriving the Undying Demon Body actually introduced me to the Nomological Laws of Undying, even directly reaching large success! I even managed to peek into the details of otherworldly demons,” Fang Yuan mumbled solemnly.
He had failed in completely comprehending the Nomological Laws of Time, but he had managed to comprehend the Nomological Laws of Undying, which was an unexpected turn of events.
And these nomological laws were also top nomological laws, not inferior to time or the Illusion Realm.
“Like this... my heavenly tribulation will be even more frightening... But in exchange, obtaining the Nomological Laws of Undying and the future Undying Great Dao were more than worthwhile!”
Fang Yuan’s lips curled up.
His comprehension of the Nomological Laws of Undying improved concurrently with his Undying Demon Body. When he eventually cultivated his body to the primordial treasure level, his nomological laws would reach perfection. In fact, when his Undying Demon Body reached the pinnacle, his Nomological Laws of Undying would automatically rise to the Undying Great Dao. He would be everlasting among Mental Demon Demon Gods and extraordinarily tyrannical.
“With the Undying Demon Body and the Nomological Laws of Undying, I should be able to survive heavenly tribulation brought by three sets of top nomological laws... But I can’t push it any further...”
Fang Yuan felt a tinge of regret.
All the exceptional geniuses of the past had died because of excessive greed, and he certainly did not want to follow their footsteps.
This time, he was fortunate enough to comprehend the Nomological Laws of Undying, which complemented the strengthening of his body and was beneficial to his lightning tribulation. But he might not be so lucky the next time.
“Fortunately, as long as I don’t comprehend to perfection, heaven and earth won’t acknowledge it, and the Great Dao inspirations won’t descend during the heavenly tribulation... But I really can’t give up on the Nomological Laws of Undying!
“If I comprehend something else in the future, I can leave it aside as long as I don’t suddenly comprehend it to perfection in one go.”
Fang Yuan was rather confident in his self-control.
“My Undying Demon Body balances the good aspects of both the Nine Transference Undying Method and the Nine Refining Demon Physique. It can plunder otherworldly demons to refine, and its foundation is still stable. But the most important point is the recovery ability of the body!”
Ordinary body refining techniques might allow the body to become comparable to an immortal artifact, but once the body suffered damage, it would be extremely troublesome to restore. Not only did it take a long time, but you would also have to consume huge amounts of heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
But the Undying Demon Body, because of the support of the Nomological Laws of Undying, could rebirth from a drop of blood, was everlasting, and had astonishing recovery speed.
It was already very troublesome to fight with a body refining cultivator. But imagine if after finally destroying their demonic body, it instantly recovered. Just how desperate would the enemy become?
Of course, to Fang Yuan, since they were enemies, the greater the despair, the better.
“My Undying Demon Body has a total of ten levels! The seventh level makes your body comparable to a primordial treasure! At this point, I’m only left with attempting to cultivate the technique!”
Although he was confident in the technique he had derived, he still needed to fine-tune some details.
In this aspect, having a clone undoubtedly increased the fault tolerance. Furthermore, experimenting personally made it easier to perfect the technique.
“My Undying Demon Body also requires a Primordial Godfiend’s origin crystal to get started!”
Fang Yuan flipped his palm, and a red-purple crystal appeared. It was the remnant left by Sethgu.
“This is the origin crystal of an otherworldly demon, and it can also be considered their basis...”
Without hesitation, a flame appeared and enveloped the origin crystal.
“Ordinary Immortals can’t deal with origin crystals, but the Nine Refining Demon Physique contains a specialized refining technique... Blood Refining Force, transform into raging flames! Refine!”
Fang Yuan bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence that wrapped the origin crystal.
A crimson flame rose.
Under this flame, the Primordial Godfiend origin crystal began melting gradually. As though the liquid metal had a life of its own, it started slowly crawling over Fang Yuan’s entire body, leaving an exotic design.
The flames expanded to envelop Fang Yuan within as well, constantly roasting his body.
Under the light of the flames, Fang Yuan’s body became as transparent as glass, and his white-jade-like bones and golden meridians became visible.
After some time, he stood up and exhaled.
Crack! Crack!
Sounds similar to countless beans being fried came from his body.
“The remnant of a Primordial Godfiend is indeed generous. Merely half of the origin crystal was enough to help my Undying Demon Body break through to the fifth level! My body is now comparable to a mid-grade immortal artifact, and this recovery...”
Fang Yuan felt that even if someone were to cut off his arm or dig out his heart, it would not matter in the slightest. He could simply grow it back again.
In terms of recovery ability, he was shoulder to shoulder with Immortals.
“And this!”
He took in a deep breath, and a black-red pattern appeared on his body like a tattoo. Eventually, it turned into a simple and unadorned armor.
“The Undying Demon Body’s demonic armor... Its defense is comparable to a top-grade immortal artifact! This is also one of the benefits of refining otherworldly demons...”
Fang Yuan’s pupils moved excitedly. “It’s as though... it made me understand some of the details of otherworldly demons. Although they all seem to rely heavily on the Nomological Laws of Destruction, the truth is that their true foundation seems to be above the Nomological Laws of Undying! It is the Connate Undying Great Dao!”
Regardless of whether it was the Undying Demon Body, Nine Transference Undying Method, or Nine Refining Demon Physique, they were all derived from otherworldly demons.
Such indicators and clues were already very obvious.
“If what I expect is right, the true experts among the otherworldly demons are incomparably terrifying...” Fang Yuan let out a deep breath. “A true Chaos Godfiend likely possesses two Connate Chaos Great Daos. Even a Netherheaven Demon God wouldn’t be a match!”
