C438 Secret valley

Not long after, Lin Tian felt the Stellar River in his body disappear in a blink of an eye ….

That's right, he just disappeared.

At this moment, the endless energy of the river of stars had completely merged into one with Lin Tian's body.

The surging power gave Lin Tian a vigorous life force.

The blood qi around Lin Tian's body was even more powerful.

It was also at this time that Horned Demon's faint voice sounded, "Brat, I must congratulate you. You have finally broken through the fourth level of the foundation realm and reached the Life and Death Realm …"

"Life and death realm?" Lin Tian was both surprised and happy. He never would have thought that this breakthrough would actually be so terrifying. He practically jumped several small realms and crazily advanced.

Of course, he knew that whether it was the Qi Refining stage, the Qi Sea stage, the Golden Core stage, or the Star River stage, they were all the foundation of martial arts cultivation.

These four foundation realms had reached the ninth level of the Star River Realm. In a low level kingdom like the Tian Luo Country, they could already be considered experts. However, in the entire Western Spirit Region, the Life and Death Realm was the true starting point for experts.

He couldn't be considered an expert without reaching the Life and Death Realm.

It had to be known that in the Lingxiao Saint Sect, all the core disciples were above the Life and Death Realm.

As for the Astral Reaching Realm, even if one was at the ninth level of the Astral Reaching Realm, in the entire Lingxiao Sacred Sect, he would at most be an inner disciple.

He was still a long way from becoming a core disciple, not to mention a true disciple.

Although Lin Tian consecutively jumped a few small realms and reached the Life and Death Realm, he had only just touched the threshold of a core disciple.

Lin Tian was still quite a distance away from some of the stronger Successor Disciples in the Virtuous Cloud Sect.

However, from this, Lin Tian could feel the dragon race's formidable bloodline.

Especially since the one Lin Tian had inherited was a Ancestor Dragon.

The Ancestral Dragon was even more powerful.

Although Lin Tian had absorbed the Ancestral Dragon blood essence before, Lin Tian had absorbed it and fused it into his own blood.

But after all, Lin Tian's strength was still too weak and he was completely unable to display the terrifying power of the Ancestral Dragon Blood.

On the contrary, many of the power instead concealed themselves and hibernated into Lin Tian's body.

Originally, Lin Tian's strength could only continuously improve, but he could also purify the blood in his body.

But now, with the help of the Zhu Yan Spirit Fruit, this entire process had been brought forward.

As such, Lin TianAo had made great progress and advanced by leaps and bounds.

Above the Astral Realm was the Life and Death Realm.

This was an extremely important level in the path of martial arts.

The Life and Death Realm was the realm that broke the lifespan threshold.

The lifespans of commoners were limited, even cultivators.

No one could live forever.

After all, that was the rule of the Grand Dao.

Martial cultivators were changing their fates and seizing their fates from the heavens.

The Life and Death Realm was precisely the first step for a martial artist to step into a fate that defied the will of the heavens.

The Life and Death Realm was divided into two stages, the Profound Life stage and the Profound Death stage.

There were a total of nine stages of Life and Death.

Fifth level of the Profound Life Stage and fourth level of the Nascent Profound Realm.

After his teacher died, he died and came back to life. The cycle of life and death intersected and that was the beauty of the Life and Death Realm.

Lin Tian had already broken through the shackles of life and now, he had officially reached the first level of the Profound Life stage.

The difference between the Life and Death Realm and the Star River Realm, was still reflected in his own body.

The Qi Disciple stage senses the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, and the Qi Hai level allows the body to connect to the dantian of the body, forming the Qi Sea.

The aurous core realm, Qi Cultivation stage, condensed into aurous core. The aurous core did not shatter, but the elemental energy was endless.

The shattering of the golden cores by the Astral Realm formed an endless river of stars, making it even more powerful.

However, the Life and Death Realm returned to the original state. The Stellar River within a cultivator's body would disappear like smoke in thin air, officially becoming a part of the cultivation world.

At this moment, the body of a martial cultivator would emit an extremely majestic aura.

The vital energy was the essence of the Profound Life stage and the reason for breaking the shackles of life.

Only by giving birth to an endless amount of life force would a martial cultivator be able to take his life from the heavens.

Only after reaching the first level of the Profound Life Stage did Lin Tian feel the strength in his body.

Not only that, the key point was the change in Lin Tian's blood qi.

At this time, the blood on Lin Tian's body was no longer red like human blood, but a light gold.

The golden blood qi currently shot straight into the sky. Lin Tian's entire body was emitting an extremely terrifying golden radiance.

The surrounding black demon aura, upon encountering Lin Tian's blood aura, quickly turned into nothingness. It no longer had any chance to resist.

Lin Tian cultivated like this for an entire day and completely adapted to the cultivation strength of the first level of the Profound Life stage. Only then did he stand up again.

Demonic Qi Origin, Lin Tian naturally knew his purpose in cultivating it.

As the bloody aura around Lin Tian grew stronger and stronger, the surrounding demonic qi also became more and more terrifying.

Currently, Lin Tian was like a flower emitting fragrance, unceasingly attracting bees and butterflies, unceasingly gathering and gathering the surrounding demonic energy.

Of course, under the enveloping of Lin Tian's Golden Blood Qi, almost no demon Qi could be spared, all of it dissipating into nothingness.

However, the strange thing was that after the surrounding demonic aura was completely cleared by Lin Tian, the originally lush and verdant trees suddenly turned into a dried up black tree. They lost all their life force …

Lin Tian blankly watched this change. His heart was in disbelief.

He also didn't know how those trees could wither and die without the help of the demonic qi.

"These trees have been nourished by the demonic energy and they can no longer be explained with common sense. Let's go, don't hesitate anymore. I can feel that the source of the demonic energy will arrive very soon …" Horned Demon indifferently explained as he once again urged Lin Tian to quickly walk forward.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss …"

"Sha sha sha …"

Not long after, Lin Tian suddenly heard this sound. It sounded extremely terrifying, as if something was rubbing against the ground or tearing at something in order to make a sound.

"It's close, it's getting closer and closer..." Upon hearing this voice, Lin Tian's spirit was suddenly lifted. If his guess was correct, he should already be very close to the demon aura source …

Lin Tian increased his speed and before long, he arrived in front of a huge valley.

In the middle of the black fog forest, there was actually an enormous valley.

Lin Tian also did not think that in the end, he would actually see a huge black valley in the vast black fog.

Outside the valley, the forest was still lush and verdant. Only here, there was a huge valley.

At this moment, a huge amount of black qi was constantly being ejected from the valley.

That was demonic energy.

"That's right, this is the location of the source of demon qi …"

Enormous demonic energy completely enveloped the surroundings.

Faintly, terrifying sounds came out from within the valley.

That sound was like something tearing and biting, yet also like a human moaning and sighing, yet also like an unspeakable sound.

Lin Tian increased his speed, found a high point in the valley, and quickly climbed up.

When Lin Tian climbed to the highest point and looked down at everything within the valley, the things within the valley made Lin Tian feel his scalp go numb!
