Chapter 1 Rebirth

  "Lai Lao, can you tell me about the specific use of this elixir?" Chen Xuan asked Lai Lao for guidance as he wasn't very familiar with the Xiuluo Dan.

  "Xuluo Dan and the Yuanshen Dan you are currently taking are of the same level. Only a Demon King from the Earth Spirit Realm can refine Xuluo Dan, which is mainly used for absorption by Tianmo. The value of Xuluo Dan far exceeds that of Yuanshen Dan. Yuanshen Dan only requires absorbing spiritual energy to be refined, whereas Xuluo Dan absorbs the aura of slaughter and killing, which is much rarer than spiritual energy. Haven't you felt that the battlefield of Tianmo is filled with the bloody aura of slaughter? They absorb this aura to cultivate Xuluo Dan, each one worth a city. This Moke has collected over 200,000 of them, who knows where he got so many from? Moreover, the quality of these Xuluo Dan is extremely high, far surpassing that of ordinary Xuluo Dan."

  "Can't humans absorb these Shura Dan?" Chen Xuan asked.

  "The Xuluo Dan contains a murderous aura, and if humans absorb too much of it, they will lightly become mentally disordered and speak nonsense. If severe, they will go mad and their cultivation will be completely ruined. Moreover, there is a possibility that they will become a useless person for the rest of their life, relying on others to take care of them. However, the spiritual energy contained within the Xuluo Dan is extremely rare, but this Xuluo power is actually a good thing. If you can absorb this Xuluo power, your spiritual energy will also contain a hint of Xuluo power. In battle, it will emit this Xuluo power to make your opponent feel fear in their heart. At that time, the opponent not only has to face your attack but also has to guard against this Xuluo power at all times. Once absorbed into one's body, mental confusion and loss of consciousness will occur. The Xuluo power also has another effect: it can enhance physical strength. By relying on the Xuluo power, you can improve your physical body. This is why the Tianmo's physical body is stronger than humans - it is due to the Xuluo power brought by the Xuluo Dan. The Tianmo can transform and become taller and stronger because of their physically strong body. Unfortunately, this Xuluo power is poisonous to humans, and they are fundamentally unable to absorb it."

  "It turns out that Shura Dan has so many wonderful uses. It seems that this time I really got a great bargain."

  I don't know how those five people are doing now, but if Mo Ke knew that all his family's belongings had been taken away, I'm not sure if he would find the five people and fight to the death. Seeing Tianmo Chen Xuan being completely eliminated, there is no one who knows that it was him who went into the town to loot everything. If those few people were to find out that it was him who stole things, would they also cause trouble for him? Anyway, he has already offended many people in Danxuan Gate and doesn't care about offending a few more. Making a fortune quietly is the best way.

  There are only a few days left until the day of the big comparison, and first raise the evil charm to the top-grade spiritual device. Move all the materials to the refining room, and once again control the evil charm in mid-air. Chen Xuan picks up the materials on the ground one by one and hammers them into the blade body of the evil charm, and then hammers out various handprints to decompose these materials. Every time a portion of material is merged into the evil charm, its power rises step by step. The materials on the ground are decreasing one by one, and the quality of the evil charm is getting higher and higher, but it has not yet reached the top-grade spiritual device.

  I don't know how many materials this evil charm needs, ordinary spiritual instruments have long been upgraded to top-grade, but even the best ordinary spiritual instruments only have tens of thousands of array methods at most. However, when I was refining this spiritual instrument, I infused more than a hundred thousand array methods into it, and after being modified by thunder and lightning, the quality of the evil charm is now more than ten times better than that of an ordinary spiritual instrument. This is the result of the modification by thunder and lightning, and the array methods I infused are also tens of times more than those in ordinary instruments.

  Although it's already comparable to a high-grade spiritual artifact now, if it can be upgraded to a high-grade one that can reach the quality of an extreme-grade artifact, then when I meet Qian Kun, I'll have the power to fight him. Qian Kun and Yu Huang saw Chen Xuan too, its power is indeed extremely great, but now it's only a half-elemental artifact, if it were a true elemental artifact, how much greater would its power be?

  The materials on the ground were all hammered into the evil spirit's knife body. The evil spirit had not yet been upgraded to a high-quality spiritual instrument, and Chen Xuan could no longer take out some refining materials from the ring again, decompose them, and merge them into the knife body. The knife body slowly lengthened and widened once more, indicating that it was time for another upgrade. Chen Xuan struck numerous handprints onto the knife body to stabilize it, allowing the knife body to solidify once more. The knife body, which had been shrunk by Chen Xuan's handprints, slowly shrank again.

  Every time the blade is reduced in size, a lot of impurities are decomposed, which are all impurities brought by the material. Chen Xuan cannot completely remove them and can only use his technique to solidify the blade and squeeze out the impurities.

  "It won't do, your evil charm quality is too high, these materials can only make the evil charm upgrade to top grade at most, it's hard to upgrade the sword body again in the future. Too many impurities are left in the sword body, if it were an ordinary spiritual instrument, it would be fine, but with these materials you can refine a dozen or so top-grade spiritual instruments. However, the evil charm is different from other spiritual instruments, it will autonomously upgrade, once too many impurities are left on the sword body, it's hard to upgrade again." Lao Li reminded Chen Xuan.

  "Is there a way? I don't have any good equipment materials on hand either, only these in my hands."

  Chen Xuan said helplessly.

  It wasn't until now that I realized that even though I've obtained all these things, I'm still very poor. Even refining a single high-quality spiritual artifact isn't enough.

  "Kid, stop lamenting for now. Who made you refine your demonic quality to such a high level? You've already cast tens of millions of array methods, and in the future, each time your demonic quality is upgraded, the space will be extremely large. However, the materials needed in the future will also be terrifying. Be prepared, don't you have tens of millions of Shura Dan in your hands now? First, let the demonic quality absorb the Shura Dan, it's much better than those materials you've been using to refine your demonic quality."

  Chen Xuan immediately threw out a million Shura Dan towards the evil spirit, and the sword body emitted a blood-red light, illuminating the entire cave with a red glow. The evil spirit let out an excited voice, and now it felt like Chen Xuan and the evil spirit were connected by flesh and blood. Chen Xuan could even feel the evil spirit's thoughts.

  Xie Mei began to emit a surge of Shura power, and Chen Xuan felt as if he had arrived at the Mountain of Corpses and the Sea of Blood. Everything before his eyes was red, with countless people killing each other, and someone fell every moment. No wonder Lao Li said that emitting Shura power could make people lose their nature, once taking out Xie Mei to fight against others, the opponent would also suffer from what he is experiencing now, and even the timid ones could be scared to death directly.

  Ten thousand Shura Dan still didn't satisfy Xie Mei's upgrade, it only made Xie Mei's quality rise again, and once again poured ten thousand Shura Dan into Xie Mei. The red light emitted by Xie Mei became even more intense, and even the stones in the cave began to be assimilated into red stones. Is this the power of Shura? Now Xie Mei is like a starving child who can't get enough to eat.

  Every time he refines 10,000 Shura Dan, it is quickly absorbed by Xie Mei. Now Xie Mei is like a bottomless pit, no matter how much Chen Xuan refines Shura Dan, it can't satisfy his appetite. In the end, Chen Xuan had to refine 50,000 Shura Dan at once, and only then did Xie Mei give out a satisfied signal, leaving Chen Xuan drenched in sweat. How is he going to get so many Shura Dan for him in the future? Can't just go around robbing every day, can he?

  From now on, every time he upgrades, the amount of Shura Dan required will double. Alas, it would be better to have a few more instances of this kind of robbery along the way. If outsiders were to know about these words, they would definitely scold him for being a prodigal son, one who is even more wasteful than a prodigal son. In just one day's work, he had consumed over a dozen high-quality spiritual artifact materials and thrown in 100,000 Shura Dan. Only then was his evil charm thoroughly upgraded to a top-grade spiritual artifact, and it was an extremely high-quality top-grade spiritual artifact, almost comparable to an extreme-grade spiritual artifact.

  Evil charm floats in mid-air, emitting red light, the power of Shura fills the entire cave. Now it can be seen that there is a bit of evil charm, before it could only be considered evil, without charm. Now it thoroughly emits an evil charm aura, just by wielding this sword Chen Xuan can transcend levels and challenge, even without using his own full spiritual power.

  If it's refined into a Yuanqi device, it can merge with the human body and its power will be even greater; I wonder how many Xiu Luo Dan are needed to refine a Yuanqi device, Chen Xuan thought.
