Jiang Lingfeng obtained a series of soul-refining magic artifacts from Shen Mo, which had originally belonged to Wang Yuanxing, including the Soul-piercing Cone, Soul Lamp, and Bind Soul Bottle, among others.
Wang Yuanxing probably never imagined that these malicious magic artifacts would one day be used on him.
Watching Senior Sister Jiang process Wang Yuanxing’s soul, Shen Mo showed no trace of pity. Instead, he was contemplating the newly acquired spiritual-level cultivation thod, the Spirit Reversing Scripture.
This cultivation thod could be considered the pinnacle of evil cultivation techniques in the Wando Archipelago.
Besides enhancing one’s Cultivation Realm, it also gave rise to several powerful, compatible thods.
Wang Yuanxing’s life-saving thod of splitting his soul into ten parts, and the strange technique of Reversing Yin and Yang, both originated from this scripture!
At the mont of demise, scatter each strand of the soul and hide it among the masses. After the crisis, unite the ten as one...
Such a design, such a thod, is truly extraordinarily ingenious.
Just before Shen Mo killed him, Wang Yuanxing perford this thod, allowing his soul to escape. His soul then manifested within the souls of the ’Human Cauldrons’ he had prepared in advance. These Human Cauldron bodies were scattered all over Bright Sand Country, each with a different identity, making it difficult for ordinary cultivators to identify them all.
Once the danger had passed, driven by Wang Yuanxing’s residual soul, these ten Human Cauldrons would kill each other until only one victor remained.
The final survivor would beco the revived "Wang Yuanxing"!
Of course, this "Wang Yuanxing" was not the sa as the original Wang Yuanxing.
During the process where the Human Cauldrons killed and absorbed one another, Wang Yuanxing’s original residual soul would gradually fuse with a part of the soul and spirit of a Human Cauldron.
After all, no matter how powerful a cultivator’s residual soul was, if it forcibly occupied a body that did not belong to it, the only outco would be the decay of the residual soul or the collapse and necrosis of the Human Cauldron’s original body.
Only by fusing with the original soul and spirit of a Human Cauldron could this be avoided.
Once the final victor was decided, he could adapt to his new body!
In such a bizarre resurrection process, the resurrected "Wang Yuanxing" was naturally not the original person. It was more like the three souls and seven spirits of the ten Human Cauldrons each contributed a strand of their soul. After combining with Wang Yuanxing’s residual soul, a completely new soul was ford, which then took over the victor’s body!
As for the original three souls and six spirits, or two souls and seven spirits, of the other Human Cauldrons, they beca nourishnt in this process.
If a Human Cauldron were to perish prematurely due to other reasons during "Wang Yuanxing’s resurrection," it wouldn’t be a significant issue; it would rely an the absence of one soul-spirit component for fusion.
The soul-spirit of the victorious Human Cauldron would ultimately compensate for any missing parts!
As long as not all ten Human Cauldrons died unexpectedly, "Wang Yuanxing" would be able to co back to life regardless.
However, this mysterious and unpredictable thod was based on the Spirit Reversing Scripture, an evil cultivation thod, and required cultivating Spirit Reversing True Yuan to perform it.
Shen Mo, who was cultivating the Purple Knack Sutra and the Chaotic Yuan and One Qi, naturally wouldn’t abandon his cultivation progress to practice this evil technique. He could only borrow its ingenious concepts and see if he could create a similar life-saving magic technique in the future.
The technique of Reversing Yin and Yang was similar; it could not be perford without cultivating the Spirit Reversing Scripture.
Moreover, even when Wang Yuanxing used this technique, he made extensive preparations in advance. For instance, the thirteen mass graves he created in the capital city of Bright Sand Country alone offered a glimpse of his Golden Core Realm power.
Not only the Spirit Reversing Scripture, but many other magic techniques and martial arts that Shen Mo obtained from Wang Yuanxing’s soul and Universe Bag were in a similar situation.
Perhaps they were originally legitimate cultivation thods. However, after two or three thousand years of evolution, they had all transford into evil cultivation thods adapted to the environnt of the Wando Archipelago. Unless Shen Mo could trace them back to their origins, he would find them difficult to cultivate.
Imdiately, Shen Mo used the [Martial Performance] and attempted to deduce the Spirit Reversing Scripture.
[Would you like to consu 337,000 low-grade Spirit Stones to deduce the Spirit Reversing Scripture to the next stage?]
Without any hesitation, Shen Mo refused outright.
From the number of Spirit Stones required, Shen Mo couldn’t tell whether the deduction would trace the evil cultivation thod back to its origin and transform it into a legitimate one, or if it would rely develop it into a middle-grade spiritual-level cultivation thod without changing its fundantal nature and characteristics.
Rather than take such a significant risk, he preferred to spend the Spirit Stones on deducing other cultivation thods.
Moreover, even if the Spirit Reversing Scripture reverted to its form from two or three thousand years ago, whether it would still possess its current power was debatable.
No matter how one looked at it, the thod of dividing the soul into ten parts and seizing others’ bodies, as well as the complex preparations required for Reversing Yin and Yang, were unequivocally evil practices. It was unlikely the original cultivation thod possessed the sa effects.
Other than for reference, cultivating it directly holds little significance.
Shen Mo thought to himself, After copying it onto a jade slip, I can submit it to the Riverside Sect in exchange for rit Points.
Even evil cultivation thods held considerable value.
Moreover, Wang Yuanxing, as the strongest individual in the Wando Archipelago, had collected nearly all the powerful magic techniques and martial arts in this domain. This included five spiritual-level cultivation thods and various ancient texts detailing the general state of the Red Fla Country’s cultivation world three thousand years ago.
Submitting them to the sect was undoubtedly the best option, as he could obtain a considerable number of rit Points in return.
Shen Mo estimated that, not counting the Spirit Stones required for their own cultivation or deduction, these cultivation thod manuals should earn him enough rit Points to exchange for three low-grade spiritual-level magic techniques.
Apart from these cultivation thod manuals and other texts, which constituted a substantial gain, his other spoils weren’t particularly impressive.
Wang Yuanxing—the chief Priest of Bright Sand Country, the strongest individual in the Wando Archipelago, and a peak Spirit Sea Realm evil cultivator—had only a little over 10,000 low-grade Spirit Stones in his Universe Bag.
There were almost no other spiritual items or materials that Shen Mo could use.
However, there was an abundance of spiritual items crafted from human sacrifices, nearly filling his Universe Bag.
The sheer bloodiness and brutality of these items shocked even Shen Mo. He had no use for these "cultivation resources," so he summoned the Nether Fire and incinerated them completely.
These findings clearly demonstrated that the Wando Archipelago, located in the remote waters of the Immortal Burial Sea, was indeed unsuitable for normal cultivators to live and practice.
Only evil cultivators who used their own kind as cultivation resources could thrive here.
Of course, now there were also external cultivators practicing the simplified version of the Bloody Dragon-shaped Body cultivation thod, who could strengthen their physical bodies by hunting wild Sea Beasts and other creatures.
The only difference was that they lacked proper Mana in their bodies.
Never mind skills like Alchemy or talisman crafting, they couldn’t even activate a talisman. When fighting, they could only rely on their formidable physical bodies for close-quarters combat.
They couldn’t compare to the so-called "Priests" scattered across the Wando Archipelago, who possessed many mystical techniques.
However, Shen Mo had now altered his previous plans. He intended to stay here for a period, thoroughly eliminate these Priests, and disseminate the simplified version of the Bloody Dragon-shaped Body cultivation thod.
The mortals here faced death whether it was by Blood Sacrifice or by resisting the Priests...
Shen Mo believed they would make the right choice.
