Chapter 76: Advancement

Cultivators cultivate against the heavens, seizing the source of all things in heaven and earth for their own benefit.

But it also depends on the capacity of one's own bowl, how much water it can hold.

Zheng Yi's progress at the moment is extremely rare among other demonic cultivators, as he has made a leap from the third level of Qi Refining to the brink of breaking through to the sixth level of Qi Refining in just over half a year.

However, under the suppression of the golden seed in his sea of consciousness, Zheng Yi's foundation is stable, even surpassing those disciples of the righteous Dao Sect known for their solid foundations.

Although the bloodthirsty Soul-Devouring Banner in his body is fierce, the Yin Soldiers and Ghost Soldiers inside are obedient and dare not resist.

Zheng Yi even has a feeling that there are no hidden dangers in his body now, his foundation is solid and firm, and he could break through at any time and anywhere.

Buzz!

Suddenly, a vibration came from within Zheng Yi's body. His expression changed, and he directly waved the Soul-Devouring Banner to collect the Blood-Clothed Ghost and the Ghost Soldiers.

With a movement of his body, Zheng Yi didn't move far. His figure appeared in a hidden room of a quick hotel.

As soon as he sat down, a thick layer of green qi enveloped Zheng Yi's face, and the Green Profound Fiend inside his body began to surge. More than two-thirds of the fiendish qi turned into Ink Spirit Fiend.

It was no longer simply green and black, but completely transformed into black, with only a slight hint of mottling, making it not so pure.

After devouring the soul power of the ghosts in the hospital, the fiendish qi inside Zheng Yi's body further evolved into a more powerful and terrifying form of Ink Fiend.

However, at this moment, his attention was completely focused on the situation inside his body, and he had no mood to understand other things.

But he heard a "crack" sound from inside his body, as if something had broken, and the shackles were suddenly broken. His aura soared, and he directly broke through to the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Zheng Yi didn't expect the breakthrough to come so suddenly and swiftly, as simple as eating and drinking.

This was mainly due to his daily accumulation being extremely solid. He had consumed a large amount of resources stored in his body, so when the breakthrough came, it was not as difficult as others. It was like a unstoppable force, a natural progression.

Zheng Yi reached out and took out a dozen Low Grade Spirit Stones from his storage bag, sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and began to meditate.

While he was in a state of cultivation, the Soul-Devouring Banner undulated around him, and the dense black mist almost obscured his figure, providing defense and protecting his safety.

If any stranger were to enter this room at this moment, whether they had malicious intent or not, they would first face the attack of countless Yin Soldiers and Ghost Soldiers, followed by the huge ghost claws of the Soul-Devouring Banner's main soul, the fierce Ghost with a Green Face and Fierce Teeth, tearing them apart.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the last two pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stones in Zheng Yi's palm shattered into a ball, and the spiritual energy inside was completely consumed. Zheng Yi slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and his realm was completely stabilized.

Having consumed more than ten Spirit Stones and stabilized his own fluctuations in spiritual power, Zheng Yi felt refreshed.

He had finally broken through to the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Unfortunately, the spiritual energy in the post-apocalyptic world is thin and can't compare to the Great Yi Immortal Domain. Now he can only rely on Low Grade Spirit Stones to supplement it. If he wants to completely stabilize his realm, it would be better to return to the Great Yi Immortal Domain.

"This can be considered an unexpected gain!"

Zheng Yi didn't expect that during the process of transforming the Ink Spirit Fiend technique, his own cultivation had also reached a certain bottleneck, leading to this breakthrough at a critical moment.

It can be seen that during this period of time, he has laid a very solid foundation.

This time, he achieved multiple gains with one action, from refining the Soul-Devouring Banner, to enhancing the fiendish qi of the technique, and finally advancing his realm. It was like hitting three birds with one stone.

Putting aside the matters of the post-apocalyptic world for now, Zheng Yi couldn't wait to return to the Great Yi Immortal Domain.

He still needs some time to thoroughly consolidate his cultivation level.

...

Time passed quickly, and more than a month had passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Zheng Yi completely stabilized at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

As long as he advances further, he will reach the advanced level of Qi Refining, which is the realm that Zheng Yi, who was once an Independent Cultivator in Xuan Kong City, has longed for.

But now, everything is within his reach.

This is no longer his current goal.

At the same time, in the post-apocalyptic world, there were changes in the flesh nest built in the central area of the gathering place.

The blood bat eggs inside had also started to hatch.

Perhaps it was because the zombie flesh was inherently different from ordinary human flesh, or perhaps due to a continuous supply of flesh and blood, the hatching time of the blood bats had been shortened by one-fifth.

In less than forty days, the first batch of blood bat eggs had already hatched. This also indicated that the rules of the two worlds were different, and the hatching time might vary.

As the creator, Zheng Yi stood high up, observing the changes in the flesh nest.

In the flesh nest, which bloomed like flowers, blood bats the size of chicks struggled to break free from the blood eggs.

Their bodies were covered in blood-colored skin, with fur on their chests and backs. Their disproportionately large bat wings trembled as they clumsily climbed and crawled within the flesh nest.

Zheng Yi furrowed his brows slightly. He discovered that the situation was completely different from what was recorded in the blood bat breeding secret technique he had obtained.

Perhaps it was because of the zombie flesh, these hatched blood bat nestlings had a strong desire to devour flesh.

Just after hatching, the blood bats, which were only the size of fists, displayed extremely aggressive behavior, biting and tearing at each other.

Zheng Yi witnessed a blood bat nestling the size of a chick directly biting and killing another one almost the same size, then devouring it alive.

These batlings hatched from zombie flesh seemed to naturally possess a special ability to turn flesh into the most essential blood.

Their stomachs seemed like bottomless pits, directly swallowing an amount equivalent to their own size.

After devouring their companions, the body of one blood bat nestling grew rapidly like a balloon. In the blink of an eye, it became the size of a bowl, and then it launched an attack on the other remaining companions.

This cruel killing and devouring resulted in a significant reduction in the number of blood bat nestlings from the first batch, but Zheng Yi coldly observed. He wanted to see what differences there were in blood bats bred from zombie flesh.

The mutual killing and devouring continued until only one female bat and several bat kings remained in the nest.

In the blink of an eye, out of the hundreds of hatched blood bat nestlings, only three to five remained. This result left even the observer Zheng Yi somewhat stunned.

"Could it be that the blood bats from Dayi Immortal Domain have undergone mutation due to being hatched from zombie flesh?"

In fact, Zheng Yi had followed the steps in the hatching technique without any mention of the blood bats devouring each other.

Perhaps something unexpected had happened with this batch of blood bats.

"Right! Could it be that these blood bat nestlings have inherited the zombie bloodline?"
