Record of a Demon's Cultivation

Chapter 347: Secret Realm Exit



Translator: Cinder Translations

With a thought from Song Wen, the silver corpse and the ghost king positioned themselves in front of the intruder.

The silver corpse emanated an overwhelming aura of death.

The ghost king exuded a dense and sinister energy.

Upon seeing this, the intruder's expression changed drastically.

With a quick turn, he darted toward the exit of the lair.

However, Song Wen's speed was even faster.

In a flash of lightning, Song Wen positioned himself at the exit of the lair.

"Since my friend Lei has arrived, why the rush to leave?" Song Wen said with a smile.

The intruder was none other than Lei Yuhua, who stared at Song Wen with apprehension.

At that moment, he was on guard against the ghost king and the silver corpse behind him.

He had intended to reach this cave before Song Wen.

After searching the entire cave, Lei Yuhua discovered that only in the stone forest could there be the Yin-Yang Blood Weeping Branch.

Once he entered the stone forest, he encountered two Abyss Pythons.

The Abyss Pythons were powerful; Lei Yuhua was no match for them in a direct confrontation.

Relying on his speed, he managed to escape the two Abyss Pythons and disengaged from battle.

Afterward, he hid in the shadows, pondering a strategy to slay the snakes.

At that moment, Song Wen entered the cave from the upper stone chamber.

Song Wen made quite a commotion as he entered the cave.

First, a massive stone door crashed down, followed by Song Wen casting fireballs multiple times.

It was hard for Lei Yuhua not to notice him.

So, he concealed himself in the shadows, waiting for the chance to be the 'yellow sparrow.'

He thought that when Song Wen was locked in a fierce battle with the Abyss Pythons, he could suddenly ambush them both and kill them.

What he didn't expect was that Song Wen had the silver corpse and the ghost king assisting him, and within a very short time, he ended the battle.

Lei Yuhua couldn't even find the opportunity to strike.

After Song Wen entered the snake den, Lei Yuhua approached the entrance.

Since he was hiding at a distance, he hadn't witnessed Song Wen slay the two Abyss Pythons.

However, by relying on the residual auras of the silver corpse and the ghost king, he determined that Song Wen was a cultivator who could refine corpses and control spirits.

As a member of the Lei family, Lei Yuhua primarily cultivated lightning techniques, and ordinary corpses and ghostly entities were not impressive in his eyes.

Although Song Wen had killed two Abyss Pythons, his strength was undoubtedly formidable.

Yet, it was due to the might of the corpse and the ghost, and lightning techniques were precisely effective against evil entities.

Thus, he followed Song Wen into the snake den.

However, when he faced the silver corpse and the ghost king, he realized his ignorance.

If he were to deal with either the silver corpse or the ghost king alone, he could still manage one or two moves.

But together, they left him with no chance of victory.

"My friend, considering I am a member of the Lei family, could you spare my life?" Lei Yuhua pleaded.

"Being a member of the Lei family doesn't make you special enough to escape execution," Song Wen replied with a cold smile.

"Friend, you misunderstand my intentions. Your talent in lightning techniques is rare; you must have practiced the nine great thunder secret techniques. However, the Beastmaster Sect only possesses the first two secret techniques. Once I advance to the Golden Core stage, I can obtain the third thunder technique from my family. I can make a soul oath; once I acquire the third thunder technique, I will surely copy a version for you," Lei Yuhua said.

Song Wen shook his head. "A mere third thunder technique isn't enough to trade for your life. Besides, what if you fail to advance?"

At this moment, Song Wen already had the third and fourth thunder techniques, so he had no need to make a deal with Lei Yuhua.

"If you can't present any other bargaining chips, then prepare to die!"

The killing intent radiated from Song Wen, and his spiritual power surged.

The silver corpse and ghost king also exuded a fierce killing aura as they charged forward.

Lei Yuhua hurriedly activated his spiritual power and used the Thunder Escape Technique to distance himself from the silver corpse and ghost king.

Song Wen waved his hand, and the Soul Cleaving Blade shot out.

Lei Yuhua quickly summoned a shield to block the attack of the Soul Cleaving Blade.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

At that moment, a massive surge of lightning erupted from within him.

Thunderstorm Technique!

Right from the start, Lei Yuhua unleashed a desperate move.

He knew that the longer the battle dragged on, the worse it would be for him.

He had to give it his all to repel the silver corpse and the ghost king quickly and escape the

Abyss Python's lair to have any chance of survival.

His internal spiritual power burned rapidly.

Lightning poured out like a torrential storm, instantly enveloping an area of several dozen

meters.

For a moment, neither the silver corpse nor the ghost king dared to approach.

Looking at the rampaging lightning, Song Wen couldn't help but smirk coldly.

Thinking of escaping? It wouldn't be that easy.

He directed the Soul Cleaving Blade not at Lei Yuhua but toward the exit of the lair.

The cave entrance collapsed, rocks falling and blocking the exit.

With nowhere to run, Lei Yuhua was soon trapped, surrounded by one person, one corpse, and

one ghost, and he perished in despair.

After searching Lei Yuhua's soul, Song Wen didn't uncover any useful information.

However, there was one thing that delighted him.

In Lei Yuhua's memories, he had found a Yin-Yang Blood Weeping Branch, which he

discovered by chance beside a dark river deep underground.

Taking the storage ring into his hand, Song Wen probed with his spiritual sense and indeed

found a jade box containing the Yin-Yang Blood Weeping Branch.

It was a three-hundred-year-old Yin-Yang Blood Weeping Branch.

Adding to the three unharvested Yin-Yang Blood Weeping Branches in the Abyss Python's

lair, Song Wen now possessed five of them.

Except for one that was less than a hundred years old, the rest were all over two hundred years

old.

Moreover, Lei Yuhua's storage ring also contained a vial of Ten Thousand Year Spirit Liquid.

With this, Song Wen already had seven vials of Ten Thousand Year Spirit Liquid.

Each time the Canglan Secret Realm opened, there were a total of twelve vials of Ten Thousand Year Spirit Liquid, and now over half had fallen into his hands.

Placing his right hand on Lei Yuhua's corpse, Song Wen absorbed his essence blood and soul.

Within the secret realm, he had absorbed the souls of several late-stage and peak-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This brought him to the peak of Foundation Establishment, giving him a sense of imminent

breakthrough.

However, it felt like there was an invisible barrier preventing him from crossing that final

threshold.

After destroying Lei Yuhua's corpse and erasing all traces, Song Wen instructed the Sacred Gus

to monitor and keep watch in various parts of the stone forest.

He then sat down to meditate and recover in the Abyss Python's lair.

The spoils he obtained in this secret realm had already exceeded Song Wen's expectations.

Although there were still nearly ten days before the secret realm closed, he did not intend to continue searching for treasures.

Song Wen spent two days recovering from the frostbite on his body, restoring himself to his previous condition.

After that, he returned to the stone chamber above the cave, crossed the now-dried cold pond, and returned to the cave where the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Liquid was stored.

Passing through the intricately winding underground passages, Song Wen emerged from the mountain's interior and arrived at the foot of a high mountain.

Looking up, he gazed at the mountain peak shrouded in mist.

The secret realm exit was located in a stone chamber not far from the mountain's summit.

At the moment the secret realm opened, the exit also appeared simultaneously.

During the one month that the secret realm was open, anyone wishing to leave could do so at

any time through the exit.
