The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World

Chapter 213: Mixed Origin Infinite Art

In the blink of an eye, Yun Qi transformed into the visage of Long Yuan, and Ma Nanshan took on the appearance of He Qing. With Chu Xuan's abilities, altering someone's appearance was effortlessly done.

Ma Nanshan was almost in tears, "Why do I have to be the woman?"

Yun Qi coughed lightly, "Long Yuan and He Qing are a couple, and He Qing often initiates flirtations with Long Yuan. Remember that well, Nanshan."

Ma Nanshan, "..."

Chu Xuan casually produced two transmitting jade slips and taught them how to use them, "Take these, and transmit any information you gather through them."

"Yes," Yun Qi and Ma Nanshan both nodded solemnly.

"Go, you are Long Yuan and He Qing from now on," Chu Xuan said with a smile.

The two bowed and departed. From that moment on, Yun Qi and Ma Nanshan were considered dead. Yet, being formidable in strength, they had severely wounded the Dragonfly Squad before their supposed deaths. Of the ten members of the Dragonfly Squad, only the leader Long Yuan and the vice-leader He Qing survived.

"You seem to recognize the master?" Yun Qi asked quietly.

Ma Nanshan nodded, "It was a long time ago. I encountered... the master through a Psionic block. But he never spoke. I didn't expect the master's soul power to be so immense! Now I understand why the master never spoke; he probably saw through it as a trap all along."

Yun Qi nodded in agreement. He couldn't help but look back toward the direction of the Yellow Springs Soul Refining Formation, feeling that their new master was profoundly mysterious and utterly inscrutable. Working for him seemed like a wise choice.

...

Chu Xuan pondered thoughtfully. These two were merely pawns in a larger game. After all, the Ascendant Faction was now barely a few cats and dogs. Even without gathering their intelligence, it wouldn't significantly impact his plans.

However, the intelligence gathered from Soul One, Soul Two, Soul Three, and Soul Four was crucial. It related to the scale of measures Chu Xuan would need to employ against the Slaughter King and the Greedy King—whether he needed no preparation at all and could strike directly at the heart, or if he should slightly enhance his power before acting, or even reveal his full hand and proceed as if it were a prolonged war.

"Hmm? Is there good news from Blue Star?" Chu Xuan perked up upon receiving new information from Wang Zhenxu.

Deciding to leave a small portion of his soul on Soul Star, he immediately stood up and summoned Wang Zhenxu.

Moments later, the chief of the Black Blade Nine-Person Council knelt before Chu Xuan, his expression barely concealing his excitement. "Immortal! The harmonization technique was successful!" He presented a stack of thick papers to Chu Xuan.

With a simple gesture, Chu Xuan levitated all the papers in mid-air. He skimmed through the text swiftly, absorbing every word.

After a brief moment, Chu Xuan showed a slight hint of surprise. He had read through the technique and found it entirely viable—so much so that it could be practiced immediately without any modifications.

"Who developed this harmonization technique?" Chu Xuan inquired.

Wang Zhenxu replied respectfully, "An elderly man from a place called Ma Baoguo. He has a keen understanding of this matter, so I had him brought to the Enlightenment Institute from the Holy Light Theocracy branch."

Chu Xuan nodded slightly and flicked a large blood pearl toward Wang Zhenxu, "Reward this to Ma Baoguo. Tell him to keep up the good work."

"Yes!" Wang Zhenxu, holding the large blood pearl, nodded solemnly.

"What's the matter?" Chu Xuan frowned slightly.

Wang Zhenxu gave an awkward smile, "Immortal, Ma Baoguo has a condition—he hopes you will use the name he has given to the technique."

"Oh? What name did he choose? Let's hear it," Chu Xuan asked curiously.

Wang Zhenxu said earnestly, "Mixed Origin Infinite Art."

Chu Xuan raised an eyebrow. 'Mixed Origin' aptly reflected the essence of the harmonization technique. The words 'Infinite Art' reminded him of the old demonic sects.

"This name is good, I'll use it," Chu Xuan nodded.

"Ma Baoguo will be very pleased to hear this," Wang Zhenxu said respectfully as he began to retreat, "I take my leave."

After Wang Zhenxu left, Chu Xuan immediately began practicing the Mixed Origin Infinite Art. This harmonization technique's main benefit was the vast amount of Spiritual Qi it could generate—enough to mitigate the conflicts between other mutually contradictory techniques.

The Mixed Origin Infinite Art was divided into nine levels, corresponding to the Golden Core's first through ninth levels. It took Chu Xuan only three days to grasp the basics of the technique.

A year later, he had cultivated the Mixed Origin Infinite Art to its highest, the ninth level. Upon reaching the ninth level, he sensed that the technique might still have potential for further enhancement.

Maybe giving Ma Baoguo more opportunities could lead to a grander achievement, possibly developing a Nascent Soul stage harmonization technique!

"The conflicts between the techniques within my body have finally lessened. I can continue my cultivation now."

Chu Xuan immediately sat down to meditate. Now at the ninth level of Golden Core, he urgently needed to find Nascent Soul spiritual materials. Thus, he planned to cultivate the "Great Protective Golden Wheel Scripture" to its highest third level, from which he could learn a new spell called "Protective Dharma Body." This technique required the condensation of merit and was incredibly durable. Additionally, he aimed to cultivate the "Yin Thunder Evil Technique" to its ninth level to learn the "Yin Evil Thunder Shadow" spell.

As time swiftly passed, five years had elapsed on Blue Star. Chu Xuan's body radiated intense golden light. Suddenly, he conjured a magnificent golden dharma body. This majestic form exuded compassion and benevolence, embodying all that was true, good, and beautiful in the world, instilling a sense of humility in those who beheld it.

Chu Xuan's thoughts stirred, and a shadow bursting with lightning suddenly leaped from his own shadow, sprinting around him three times in the blink of an eye. For the first time, Chu Xuan gazed into the eyes of this shadow—his own reflection—and found the experience profoundly intriguing.

These two spells were naturally the Protective Dharma Body and the Yin Evil Thunder Shadow. With these, he had a reliable means of self-protection. Additionally, the substantial expansion of his spiritual soul had naturally condensed into the essence of his spiritual soul.

Alongside the Ghost Kings Two Arms and Four Arms, Chu Xuan's current power was such that if he were to confront Yun Zhongyu again, unlike the perilous battle of last time, he could easily counter and defeat him.

"Calculating the time... I've spent about twenty years on Blue Star, and two years have passed in the extraterritorial battlefield," Chu Xuan mused. "For two years, we've failed to locate Huikong, so the efforts of the Reincarnation Divine Church should have significantly diminished by now, likely just going through the motions.

Taking this opportunity, I should hasten to gather the remaining Nascent Soul spiritual materials. If I can step onto the Nascent Soul Path, I will have more opportunities across the extraterritorial battlefield."

With no time to waste, Chu Xuan activated the Blood Mirror and set off for the extraterritorial battlefield, poised to gather the necessary materials and ascend to the next level of his cultivation journey.
