Chapter 235: The Bark Demon Army

Chapter 235: The Bark Demon Army

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Soul Pond, Soul Pond!

It meant to build a pond inside one’s soul which would strengthen the soul by many times.

The Xuan Wu Realm was to open up the channels in the body, while the Spirit Sea Realm was to condense the spirits which would lay down the foundation for a warrior to advance in cultivation. The Soul Pond Realm was mainly about cultivating the soul.

When the soul was empowered, the six senses of a warrior would be enhanced and his fighting abilities would be improved greatly. Before an enemy made a move, the warrior would be able to deduce the attack trajectory so as to make a head start move and win.

The physical body is the essence of a warrior, Xuan Energy is the source of strength, and soul is the most crucial element.

When the soul is strengthened, the warrior’s ability in thinking and the speed in making deductions and perception would be greatly improved, which would be substantial help for future cultivation.

Xuan Wu Realm was the foundation for the Spirit Sea Realm, Soul Pond Realm could make the soul stronger, and the Fate Wheel Realm could extend the longevity of a warrior.

A warrior could only reach the higher realms and change his destiny after his foundation was laid out, perception abilities improved, and life extended.

To cultivate to a certain realm was not to be taken without seriousness. Many forefathers and ancestors went through millings of times of failures, took great pains and perfected the methods over and over again. The methods were made certain after hundreds of thousands of years.

Great oaks from little acorns grow. To change destiny, one must have a solid foundation, cultivate step by step, and climb up bit by bit.

Lu Li knew very well how to reach the Soul Pond Realm. He had three top-level pellets, the Holy Soul Pellet. Its price was 500,000 Xuan Crystals per piece, a very good pellet in assisting a warrior to reach the Soul Pond Realm.

That being said, it was not like Lu Li could succeed for sure now that he had the Holy Soul Pellet. Patriarch Seven, Patriarch Nine and Patriarch Lu all tried once. Every one of them consumed a Holy Soul Pellet, in the end, however, they failed.

The older one got, the worse one’s bodily functions were and the journey to breakthroughs would be harder as well. Lu Li was only 16. The several patriarchs believed that Lu Li had a very good chance of succeeding. The possibility of him making it stood at 80% at least.

Lu Li hadn’t taken the Holy Soul Pellet yet as it was not the time. The first step in cultivation the Soul Pond Realm was to build up the Bridge of Spirits.

The Bridge of Spirits was what connected the Spirit Sea and the Soul Pond. To build a Soul Pond required a lot of Xuan Energy. The Soul Pond could not come from nowhere. It would demand Xuan Energy.

Without profound Xuan Energy, the Soul Pond could not come into form. It could only be built after a warrior got to the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm.

The entire cultivation system was perfected and modified by the ancestors of the Northern Desert after many times. Everything must be done according to the system strictly.

The Xuan Energy could have gone to the brain via the channels, but it would be utterly slow, since it would have to go through many energy channels.

On the other hand, to build the Soul Pond required a large amount of Xuan Energy all at once. That was why the former generations thought of the methods of building a Bridge of Spirits so that the Xuan Energy could reach the brain directly.

The Bridge of Spirits, actually, was a special energy channel, a big one that could direct Xuan Energy to the brain.

To forcefully make an energy channel inside one’s body would be excruciatingly painful for a warrior. The Bridge of Spirits would collapse if the warrior could not stand the pain any longer. All the previous efforts would be in vain.

This was just the first step in constructing the Soul Pond. It would be seen how difficult it was to reach the Soul Pond Realm. Many warriors were stuck at the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm precisely for this reason.

Lu Li consumed a top-level pellet which was designed to reduce the pain. Its price was 100,000 Xuan Crystals per piece.

Average warriors could not afford it. Once upon a time, even patriarchs of the Liu Family were not qualified to take it, unless the patriarch had made key contributions to the family or had very good potential.

With this pellet, Lu Li didn’t have to suffer the pain that could eat him alive. As soon as the animal tooth pendant started glowing, Lu Li began to control the Xuan Energy to form into a strain to break through his muscles and build the Bridge of Spirits.

Lu Li was still sweating because of the pain even if he had the pellet and the animal tooth pendant.

He always had a strong will. He had survived condensing the Spirit Sea without the help of pellets, so this was nothing for him. He could make it easily.

The Bridge of Spirits was slowly built. After all, pieces of muscles must be torn apart bit by bit. It was the equivalent to building a unique channel inside his body. This energy channel could not break down. It must be kept stable, at least till the Soul Pond was built, if not for a long time.

Hunchback Tian provided a secret method for Lu Li to build the Bridge of Spirits which Lu Li had mastered a long time ago. In just less than half a day, half of the Bridges of Spirits was done. Lu Li took four of the pain-reducing pellets. That was 400,000 Xuan Crystals down the drain.

He had consumed pellets worth so many Xuan Crystals but only finished half of the Bridge of Spirits. This was just the start. He still needed to construct the Soul Pond and needed pain-easing pellets worth nearly a million Xuan Crystals.

He would also require the help of Holy Soul Pellets. For this one try at the Soul Pond Realm, Lu Li would have to spend more than one million Xuan Crystals. If he had to try twice, the Xuan Crystals of that amount would be enough to make a go at the Fate Wheel Realm.

Lu Li had the Xuan Crystals so he could afford it. Then how would a small family do it?

A small family would not buy such a high level pain-easing pellets, nor would they be able to afford Holy Soul Pellets. One attempt would cost them more than tens of thousands of Xuan Crystals, tops.

Since Lu Li had enough Xuan Crystals, he would not deliberately experience the unnecessary pain. He also wanted to succeed with one attempt, but not several. That would be painful for himself and time-consuming.

After more than half a day, the Bridge of Spirits was finished, connecting the Spirit Sea and the brain. It could provide endless Xuan Energies in the construction of the Soul Pond.

"Hoo, hoo~"

After making sure that the Spirit Sea Realm was stabilized, Lu Li opened his eyes and breathed heavily. Then he fell to the ground after he drank some water.

The Soul Pond must be built in one go. Hence, Lu Li needed ample physical strength and energy. He closed his eyes, ready to sleep for a couple of hours to conserve strength and save up energy so he could make it at one fling.

Soon, he fell into sound sleep. He even snored, which was rare. The snores soon filled the room.

…

"Report!"

Lu Li had only slept for two hours when a scout rushed into the Blood Evil Island and knelt to Liu Yi and Patriarch Seven, "Family Patriarch, Patriarch Seven! I have a message for you from Patriarch Lu. He said there are seven battleships approaching the Blood Evil Island. The flag shows they are the Dark Demon Army, a very famous force of lake bandits coming from the northwest. Their leader is Mo Xi, at the peak of the Soul Pond Realm. The Dark Demon Army has three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm and more than 40 at the Spirit Sea Realm. Family Patriarch, Patriarch Seven, please get ready."

Liu Yi and Patriarch Seven looked at each other, not getting too worried. The enemies had come later, and the first ones getting here were weaker than they had thought.

"Ask Patriarch Seven to keep on probing and send the messages back in time!"

Liu Yi waved her hand and ordered. She had grown these days, assuming the ways of a great general. Maybe she was influenced by Lu Li because she often followed him around. When she heard the news, she remained calm.

Her fighting abilities were enhanced as well now that she had reached the middle stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. Of course, this was not impressive per se. But since Lu Li was her support, nobody dared to look down on her.

"Patriarch Nine, get ready for battle!"

Patriarch Seven shouted. Soon, Patriarch Nine responded. Armies after armies were formed, and warriors after warriors were mobilized. They were carrying out the agreed-upon plan.

Liu Yi, Patriarch Seven and Patriarch Nine had spent many hours discussing with other patriarchs. They devised a variety of plans and coping mechanisms.

Lu Li was the owner of the Blood Evil Island now. Since he decided to go to war, Patriarch Seven and the others wouldn’t want to waste too much time on thinking about the consequences. They should devote themselves into the winning the battles first.

"Family Patriarch, I can manage the situation here. Go to the Earth Dragon Island."

Patriarch Seven stood up and said to Liu Yi. She nodded and walked out. She needed to get Hunchback Tian to the Blood Evil Island. It would be hard for them to deal with the Soul Pond Realm warriors of the Dark Demon Army without Hunchback Tian there.

Walking out of Blood Evil Fortress, Liu Yi looked towards the west and smiled a cold smile, "Dark Demon Army? Three warriors of the Soul Pond Realm? There is no return for you this time."
