By the standards of the cultivation world, she didn't possess even the faintest trace of spiritual energy fluctuation in her entire body, looking as clean as a mortal peasant girl who had just finished digging for food in the dirt.
In this secret realm, the ancient formations, worldly restrictions, and "radars" that triggered by capturing spiritual energy fluctuations were completely useless in Su Yueli's eyes.
The grand formations were blind, and the restrictions were deaf.
As long as she didn't use her blood qi to actively crash into those visible physical traps, these ancient leftover killing formations would treat her as a completely non-threatening pocket of air, letting her run wild across the wasteland like an invisible person.
“Cultivation is such a hassle with so many rules and regulations. Aren't they afraid of starving their brains of blood by keeping their divine sense active for so long?”
Su Yueli muttered to herself, casting a disdainful glance at a few cultivators in the distance who were moving as slowly as if they were recovering from childbirth.
She withdrew her gaze, stomped her foot, and shot forward once more like a streak of black light.
Ahead was Rocky Valley, where a Fifth Realm demon beast, an Earth-Fire Black Python that was dozens of feet long and covered in barbs, was coiled in the shadows.
This black python was flicking its tongue, greedily staring at the few cultivators shuffling closer step by step not far away, waiting for the moment they triggered a restriction to launch a sneak attack.
However, before the Earth-Fire Black Python could launch its stealth attack, a fist the size of a clay pot appeared on its forehead without any warning.
Boom!
It was the purest, most primitive form of physical deliverance.
With a single punch, the Fifth Realm demon beast's head was smashed into the ground, its hard skull and the demon core inside instantly pulverized into mush.
The few cultivators who were still carefully using their divine sense to detect restrictions only felt a gust of wild wind sweep past. By the time they snapped out of it, only a headless giant python corpse remained in the distant shadows, along with a fleeting silhouette of a black robe.
“Just now... did something pass by?”
“I don't know, my divine sense didn't react at all. Maybe it was just a gust of wind.”
“What kind of wind can blow a Fifth Realm Earth-Fire Black Python's skull into paste? Hiss—let's go quickly, this place is too bizarre!”
The faces of the cultivators turned green with fright, and their shuffling speed slowed down even more.
Meanwhile, Su Yueli had already dragged the python's remains and expertly slipped into a hidden cave nearby.
A terrifying secret realm that was a near-death experience in the eyes of cultivators had completely become a top-tier personal buffet for Su Yueli.
Of course, the journey was not always smooth sailing.
Occasionally, she would run into a few blind, low-level loose cultivators who thought a black-robed person with no spiritual energy fluctuations was an easy target, howling as they rushed up to rob and kill her.
Su Yueli's response was always extremely straightforward: a single punch to explode their heads.
The prerequisite to living a long life was to leave no loose ends.
When it came to killing and scattering ashes, Su Yueli always felt she was a highly ethical professional.
In just five short days, the outer region of the Myriad Bones Wasteland was completely devastated.
Relying on her mortal invisibility cheat, Su Yueli carried out high-frequency, crazy harvesting in the outer region.
Roughly calculated, dozens of Fifth and Sixth Realm demon beasts had already died by her hand.
And the regular show after killing monsters every day was the moment that gave Su Yueli the biggest headache, yet also felt the most fulfilling.
Inside a hidden cave, a recently deceased Sixth Realm Tempest Bear lay on the ground, a faint demonic qi still lingering on its body.
Before the corpse could even grow cold, the drama inside Su Yueli's body began right on time.
“Quick, quick, quick, it's still warm! This is a high-stage Sixth Realm Tempest Bear, its heart blood is the most nourishing!”
Xiaohei's sharp and urgent voice exploded in Su Yueli's mind.
As a weapon spirit, its current state made it extremely eager for the essence blood of high-level living beings to repair its physical body. Usually, it had to keep a low profile outside, but once inside this secret realm, it became a complete chatterbox, constantly nagging in Su Yueli's ear for food every day.
“That dead ghost Martial Soul, get lost! Don't use your disgusting black hole to snatch my share! Last time, you intercepted thirty percent of that Flying Centipede's essence blood. How can you eat so much, you piece of junk!”
Faced with Xiaohei's cursing, the Martial Soul huddled deep within Su Yueli's dantian remained completely unmoved.
Although it was still only palm-sized and looked like a flickering phantom that could dissipate at any moment, it showed an amazing talent when it came to grabbing food.
Buzz!
The Martial Soul phantom swayed slightly, directly manifesting a pitch-black gluttonous black hole in midair.
The black hole emitted a terrifying devouring power, opening its mouth to take a massive suck at the Tempest Bear's lingering remnant soul and core essence blood.
Seeing that these two guys were about to fight inside her body again over the uneven distribution of the loot, Su Yueli's face darkened, and she stomped her right foot hard on the ground.
Boom!
Violent Ji Dao blood qi erupted from her body, turning into two invisible large hands that pinned down the bear corpse on the ground, forcefully blocking the devouring power and the desire to suck blood.
“Shut up, both of you!”
Su Yueli cursed furiously in her mind: “If you keep arguing, neither of you gets to eat today! Go chew on air instead!”
As the owner of this body and the referee for two sky-swallowing beasts, Su Yueli had absolute control over the distribution of resources.
“Xiaohei, take thirty percent of the essence blood to temper your physical body. Don't push your luck.”
“Martial Soul, the remaining remnant soul and forty percent of the core energy go to you. If you dare use your black hole to intercept again, I will seal you with Ji Dao blood qi for three months!”
Being roared at by Su Yueli, the commotion inside her body finally died down.
Xiaohei's weapon spirit grumbled as it began to guide the essence blood, while the palm-sized Martial Soul, like a wronged young wife, obediently shrank back behind the black hole and began to nibble on its share of the meal.
Su Yueli rubbed her temples, laughingly scolding these two spendthrifts as she circulated her technique, absorbing the remaining pure physical blood qi from the Tempest Bear's corpse into her body to temper her every cell.
Although this kind of life felt like mediating neighborhood disputes every day—painful yet joyful—the results were tangible.
After devouring the remnant souls and essence blood of dozens of high-level demon beasts over five whole days, the Martial Soul, which had been congenitally deficient and looked like it could be blown out by a gust of wind at any moment, finally achieved a qualitative leap.
The moment the last wisp of the peak Sixth Realm Tempest Bear's remnant soul was completely absorbed into the black hole, the originally palm-sized Martial Soul phantom shook violently.
It seemed to no longer be that flickering, ghost-fire-like existence, but instead began to absorb the scattered Ji Dao blood qi around it.
Its size exploded within a few breaths, soaring from a tiny speck all the way up until it finally transformed into the size of an ordinary person.
Not only that, but on the surface of the originally blurry phantom, a layer of solid matter composed of pure black Ji Dao will actually began to condense.
Clank, clank.
Along with a dense series of light sounds, a set of dark martial armor filled with a cold, tyrannical aura quickly covered its entire body.
The patterns on the armor were ferocious, exuding a sense of wildness that did not belong to this era.
As the armor formed, the Martial Soul's originally chaotic face also began to become somewhat clear, and a pair of black eyes slowly opened beneath the armor's mask.
