Cultivating To Immortality

Fang Hong nodded in satisfaction, thinking to himself.

"As expected of the Heavenly Azure Sea Domain. I’ve only just arrived and already harvested five spirit pills, and I haven’t even truly used the Demon Attraction Powder yet. To have such a harvest shows that the opportunity here is extraordinary."

Afterward, Fang Hong transformed into a red light and flew up, circling above the island to meticulously survey the terrain.

According to the Old man’s map, this was precisely a location frequently visited by grade 6 Demonic Beasts.

Before long, Fang Hong discovered a recessed, crescent-shaped bay on the east side of the small island, with low-lying terrain, making it very suitable for deploying Demon Attraction Powder.

Immediately, Fang Hong took out the Formation Flags of the Five Elements Demon-Trapping Formation and inserted them into the rock walls and sandy ground around the bay.

Under the activation of his magical power, formation seals emerged, shimmering faintly.

Sea Demonic Beasts are skilled in water, so they must be trapped with a formation, otherwise, they can easily escape.

After deploying the Five Elements Demon-Trapping Formation, Fang Hong was still not at ease and set up the Four Symbols Formation again, providing multiple layers of insurance. As long as a Demonic Beast entered this bay, it would be doomed.

With the formations set, Fang Hong took out a small pinch of grade 6 Demon Attraction Powder from his storage bag, then exhaled a wisp of Dan Fire to refine it in his palm.

This was the standard method of use taught by the Endless Sea Chamber of Commerce; the Demon Attraction Powder had to be refined into a liquid to maximize its effectiveness.

A moment later, he refined the Demon Attraction Powder into a drop of liquid glowing with a faint blue light, like a sapphire, with its spiritual light contained.

Fang Hong flicked his finger, and the blue liquid flew out in response, accurately landing on the shallow beach by the bay.

The blue liquid instantly merged into the seawater, like a pale blue pearl, continuously emitting waves of mysterious ripples that spread out towards the surrounding sea area.

Seeing this, Fang Hong was secretly amazed, realizing that it was these mysterious ripples that attracted the Demonic Beasts.

Then, Fang Hong flew and hid behind a nearby reef, quietly awaiting the appearance of Demonic Beasts.

Time slowly passed. Approximately half an hour later, Fang Hong, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them; there was finally movement in the bay.

"They’re here."

Not far from the bay, the sea surface suddenly surged, and a huge black shadow leisurely swam into the bay.

Immediately after, with a "boom," the seawater exploded, and an enormous creature emerged from the sea, stirring up waves several feet high!

"This is... an Azure Sea Serpent." Fang Hong’s eyes widened in surprise upon seeing this giant creature.

It was a snake-shaped Demonic Beast several tens of feet long, with a triangular head, azure scales, and crooked golden patterns on its body.

Fang Hong had read the sea demon illustrated handbook and recognized this snake. It was called the "Azure Sea Serpent," a high-grade Demonic Beast of the Outer Sea.

The one before him now had an astonishing aura, reaching grade 7, comparable to a Late stage of Golden Core cultivator.

Far from being afraid, Fang Hong was ecstatic when he saw the Azure Sea Serpent.

The people from the association had said that grade 6 Demon Attraction Powder also had a chance of attracting grade 7 Demonic Beasts. It seemed his luck was good; he had attracted a grade 7 Demonic Beast right away.

Hiss! Hiss!

The Azure Sea Serpent saw the blue You Demonic liquid on the shore, realized it had been tricked, let out a roar, and submerged into the sea, attempting to escape.

Fang Hong sneered, immediately activating the formation he had set up in advance. Since it had come, it wouldn’t be allowed to leave.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

The Five Elements Demon-Trapping Formation suddenly activated, its formation light barrier transforming into a huge shield, enveloping the entire bay.

The Four Symbols Formation followed closely, the two formations complementing each other, firmly locking down the entire area. Even if it wanted to escape into the seawater, it would be impossible.

Seeing itself trapped in the formation, the Azure Sea Serpent became enraged, emerged from the sea, opened its huge mouth, and spat out a water column that shot towards the formation barrier.

Bang. Bang. Bang.

Under the impact of the water column, the formation barrier of the Five Elements Demon-Trapping Formation violently trembled, and even tiny cracks appeared.

"What a formidable beast." Fang Hong was secretly startled and dared not be careless. He quickly summoned the Four Symbols Formation Spirit, which lunged at the Azure Sea Serpent.

The Azure Sea Serpent and the Four Symbols Formation Spirit wrestled together, the giant snake roaring, the Array Spirit bellowing, the seawater constantly churning, neither giving way.

Fang Hong also understood that relying solely on one Four Symbols Formation would not be enough to kill it.

So, Fang Hong flew to the side of the formation barrier and threw out three Ice Seal Talismans, causing them to continuously spray white cold Qi, which rapidly enveloped the Azure Sea Serpent.

Affected by the Ice Seal Talismans, some white ice even appeared on the Azure Sea Serpent’s body, drastically reducing its speed.

The Azure Sea Serpent, which had originally held the upper hand, immediately fell into a disadvantage, being fiercely struck and bitten by the Four Symbols Formation Spirit, crying out repeatedly.

Fang Hong was not idle. He conjured the Heavenly Thunder Needle, transforming it into a sharp spear. Seizing the opportunity, he hurled it fiercely at the Azure Sea Serpent’s head.

"Go."

With a low shout from Fang Hong, the spear precisely pierced the Azure Sea Serpent’s triangular head.

Pfft!

The Azure Sea Serpent was unable to dodge; its head was instantly pierced, and its massive body was firmly pinned to the reef on the shore, twisting incessantly and roaring continuously.

A moment later, the Azure Sea Serpent completely fell silent, its corpse lying on the shore. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Fang Hong retrieved the Heavenly Thunder Needle, and his magical power transformed into an invisible large hand, bringing the Azure Sea Serpent’s corpse to the small island, where he began to "process" it.

Fang Hong took out a blue jade demon gourd. This was a low-grade Spiritual Artifact he had refined a few days ago, specifically for collecting high-grade demon blood.

This Azure Sea Serpent was a water-attribute Demonic Beast, and a grade 7 Demonic Beast, so it could also be used to strengthen the Four Symbols Formation.

After collecting the demon blood, Fang Hong then took out the demon gourd to absorb its corpse and refine it into a spirit pill. His first grade 7 spirit pill was obtained.

Fang Hong was satisfied. He retracted the formation barrier, took out some more Demon Attraction Powder, and repeated the process, continuing to attract Demonic Beasts.

In this way, Fang Hong officially began his hunting plan.

It must be said that the Demon Attraction Powder was indeed effective. Fang Hong waited for a while and again attracted a group of Demonic Beasts. This time, it was a group of "Green-scaled Shrimp," a total of ten, all grade 5 Demonic Beasts.

Seeing this group of Green-scaled Shrimp, Fang Hong was overjoyed. He immediately activated the formation to trap them, then used the Heavenly Thunder Needle to instantly kill them all.

Immediately after, he used the demon gourd to absorb their corpses and refine them into spirit pills. Ten spirit pills were obtained just like that.

Fang Hong praised repeatedly, exclaiming that this Outer Sea was truly paradise.

Before, on the mainland, he had to search for Demonic Beasts to hunt. Now, he only needed to deploy Demon Attraction Powder, and a large number of Demonic Beasts would deliver themselves to his doorstep. The efficiency was astonishing, and he had truly come to the right place this time.

As long as he had the demon gourd, advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage was just around the corner. Fang Hong was suddenly filled with ambition.

In the evening, as the sun gradually sank into the sea, Fang Hong retrieved all the Formation Flags and left the small island.

According to the association, Demon Attraction Powder could not be used in the same place for too long, otherwise, its effect would be greatly diminished, so Fang Hong had to find a new small island.

The Heavenly Azure Sea Domain was vast and boundless, with islands scattered like stars, providing plenty of Opportunities, so he was not worried.

However, as it was getting dark, Fang Hong needed to find a safe place to settle down.

Approximately half an hour later, Fang Hong followed the map and found another small island.
