Chapter 237: The Treasure, Jiuli Treasure Tripod

In addition to the seven sacred magic lamps, the golden branch of falling treasures, the banner of ten thousand souls, the five elements flying sword, and the statue of the Red Heart God, Lu Cheng took out four more spiritual objects not long after:

The Netherworld Dharma Pearl, the Stone Spirit Heart, the Nirvana Golden Lotus, and the Great Sun Golden Book are four treasures taken from the six realms of the Heavenly Buddha Realm.

Among them, the Mahavairocana Golden Book is a traditional book and the Nirvana Golden Lotus is the greatest treasure of Buddhism.

The only items that can be used directly are the Netherworld Pearl and the Stone Spirit Heart.

One of the netherworld beads was a pale white bone bead with a glittering precious light. Lu Cheng held it between his fingers. Through years of sword-making experience, he could tell that it was a precious material for sword-making with excellent quality, but it required a very special environment and refining technique to cooperate with it.

The other is a black stone. It looks ordinary, but Lu Cheng can sense the powerful spiritual essence contained in it.

He stretched out his left hand and calculated quickly with his five fingers. There seemed to be some mystery in the whole process. This was the Heavenly Demon Algorithm. Through various calculations, it measured all things in the world and guided the heavenly mechanism in the direction that was most beneficial to itself.

Lu Cheng usually doesn’t use this magic algorithm easily, but today he felt something in his heart, so he calculated:

“…Netherworld Cold Iron, Netherworld Divine Sword… Carrying Yin and embracing Yang, this magic bead balances the Yin energy that has accumulated in the human world for a thousand years, and then accumulated countless resentful souls. If you can encounter Netherworld Cold Iron in the future, you can refine it into the Netherworld Divine Sword. After the sword is completed, the sky will be dark, the wind will be cold, and ghosts will cry and wolves will howl within a radius of ten miles. Not a blade of grass will grow. It is extremely powerful.”

Lu Cheng calculated that this sword had some connection with himself, but he didn’t care too much. Even if the Netherworld Sword could defeat the Invisible Sword, it depended on who held it. Some people could not become the God of Swords even if they had the sword in their hands.

You will only become a slave to the sword, and then no matter how powerful the sword is, it will be useless.

“On the contrary, this stone spirit heart is in chaos, but it contains aura that is even more powerful than the Netherworld Pearl. If it is handled properly, it will be of great benefit to me. If it is not handled properly, the harm to me may be far greater than that of the Netherworld Sword!”

Lu Cheng looked at the black stone in surprise. He didn’t expect that he would calculate such a result.

However, no matter what happens to the Netherworld Pearl and the Stone Spirit Heart in the future, Lu Cheng cannot touch them now, because without these four Six Paths Room treasures, Lu Cheng cannot open the Heavenly Palace and obtain the Golden Boat of Deliverance. Compared with the Golden Boat of Deliverance and the meaning it represents, neither the Netherworld nor the Stone Spirit can compare.

After sorting out the more precious spiritual objects in his hand, Lu Cheng walked back and forth in the underground cave for a few circles, then returned to the rock, sat cross-legged, and meditated.

A moment later, a ball of dark red light flew out and then fell into the chest of Taoist Lu Cheng.

No matter what kind of magic weapon or spiritual object it is, it is far from comparable to the Jiuli Ding that brought him to this world.

After being promoted to the Jindan Zhenren realm, Jiuli Ding also opened up more permissions to Lu Cheng. If it weren’t for sensing this, Jin Ling’er, the Golden-winged Dapeng, would probably not be so easy to talk to and would not treat Lu Cheng as an equal.

During these fourteen years, Lu Cheng invested a lot of effort in the management of the Jiuli Ding, which of course also included the subduing of several monsters.

The world of dog demons.

A giant dog, as big as a hill, was chasing its prey, playing with it, and then devouring it.

When this short-haired, white, thin-waisted dog began to bark and swallow, a huge black hole seemed to appear in the void. This demon beast’s innate magical power was “the sun and the moon in its belly, swallowing the sky and the earth!”

With just one bite, he swallowed a large number of monsters that had the courage to resist into his mouth, chewing and swallowing them. In just a few decades, this dog monster had been promoted from a fourth-level monster to a fifth-level monster in Lu Cheng’s hands.

If a human cultivator has such a speed of cultivation, it is nothing special. There is always no shortage of talented people among human cultivators.

However, this is a demon beast. Its magic power and physical body are usually stronger than those of human cultivators at the same level, but its cultivation progress is far behind in most cases, especially before it has cultivated into a human body.

There are two cultivation paths for monsters and beasts: one is to cultivate magic power, and the other is to cultivate the human body.

Those who practice first absorb the essence of the sun and the moon to grow their magic power and nourish their bodies. After thousands of years, they will eventually achieve success. The vast majority of monsters practice in this way.

But if there is protection and guidance from a great demon or Taoist, and one focuses on cultivating the human body, refines the transverse bone, and sheds the demon body, then it is possible that one has not had any magical powers after practicing for the first thousand years, and may be chased all over the mountains by a mortal Taoist who has practiced magical powers for a few years, holding a wooden sword and talismans. If one encounters a monster that has practiced for a hundred years, he may be devoured by it.

However, after successful cultivation, once a human body is achieved, except for the innate spiritual intelligence and destiny, the progress of cultivation will be no different from that of ordinary people. However, among the wild monsters who choose this path, only a few can achieve success.

Those white cranes, bears and tigers that are born with some intelligence, if they have some good luck, will seek shelter under the tutelage of a true Taoist practitioner and become a thousand-year-old boy, then their safety and path to the Tao will be guaranteed – but the vast majority of cultivators cannot find a true Taoist practitioner or become his disciple, as this path depends too much on fate and opportunity.

Or some jackals, tigers and leopards may find a dangerous mountain or place, become the disciple of a great demon, and let the demon drive them around. Although this path rarely succeeds, they can still enjoy hundreds of years of peace and happiness, which can be considered a good path.

The dog demon was originally a wild demon, and he practiced the former. The reason why his magic power increased so fast in the past fourteen years was because of his innate magical power.

“The sun and the moon in the belly, swallowing the sky and eating the earth” can transform all the spiritual energy and vitality swallowed into the belly into one’s own.

Often devour natural magic power to make it more powerful and advanced.

But if it cannot be overcome, its intestines will be pierced and its stomach will burst, and it will die. Almost all monsters that awaken this innate magical power die this way.

Even if it only devours small demons and low-level monks, it will be useless. It will absorb too much mixed magic power and cannot be resolved. After a long time, it will become poison, which will cause death more miserably and quickly.

Originally, this was the ending of the dog demon. However, after Lu Cheng further took control of the Jiuli Ding, he discovered that he could influence the fate of the spirit beast he owned to a certain extent.

Then as long as you accumulate more energy on a daily basis, and let the dog demon devour it when the accumulation is enough, if it cannot be subdued, it will greatly consume and increase its luck, so that it can be injured but not killed. Even if it is seriously injured, it is far better than the ending of death.

Thanks to this, in the past fourteen years, the magic power of the fourth-level dog demon has rapidly increased to the middle level of the fifth level. If Lu Cheng did not like to gamble, it would have a great chance of becoming a late-stage fifth-level demon beast.

Although the Golden Silkworm Gu, which possesses a hundred poisons, has made great progress in the past fourteen years due to devouring a large number of poisonous insects from Yinshan Zhenren, it is still not as good as it.
