Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There was indeed nothing wrong with the sheepskin scroll.
After repeated verification, Lu Li carefully picked up the map on the ground and looked at it carefully.
After reading it, he was slightly shocked.
The Demons Cave was actually 1,000,000 square kilometers in area!
If he walked on his feet, he might not be able to finish it in a few years.

Then he looked at the back of the scroll.
A green lotus image immediately came into view.
Apart from that, there were also some small hints.
Th Demons Cave was divided into 3 layers.
The outermost layer was the qi refining level ghost, and the innermost layer was the foundation level ghost. The innermost layer was where the ghost king lived and cultivated.
It was said that the innermost layer had already become a ghost city!
It was Fengdu!
A demigod-level ghost king was ruling that terrifying ghost city, Fengdu.
Anyone who enter that area would die!
Lu Li naturally was not stupid enough to enter the center of the Demons Cave.
However, he could not just walk around because the outermost layer was also divided into territories.
He could only move around within a 5 km radius, absorbing ghostly aura and capturing ghost spirits.
The so-called ghost spirits referred to the ghosts that had feelings.
The ghosts here were mostly resentful and malicious as they only had the intention to kill. They only knew how to kill, and it was extremely difficult to cultivate them into spirit ghosts.
However, spirit ghosts were different.
Spirit ghosts were the same as spirit beasts. They could be captured and cultivated for battle.
‘That Qing He is able to occupy a piece of territory in the Demons Cave. It seems that she’s quite powerful.’
Lu Li thought to himself as he put away the map.
Then, he began to walk toward the depths of the Demons Cave.
He wanted to find a place filled with ghostly qi so that his Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra would regress.
While he was at it, he cultivated the Indestructible Divine Technique.
Soon, he found it.
Beside a withered tree, Lu Li found a black rock the size of a water tank, with traces of malicious qi lingering on it.
The temperature around him was very cold.
The soil under the black rock had formed a thin layer of black frost.
[Your Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra is very dissatisfied with the aura around it. It is extremely agitated, and if you are not careful, you will suffer from qi deviation and your cultivation will reverse.]
The system prompt immediately popped up.
Great!

When Lu Li heard that, he no longer hesitated and directly sat on the black rock.
At the same time, he began to silently recite the Heart Sutra in his heart.
However, his eyes were wide open, filled with vigilance as he scanned the surroundings and the sky.
This was the Demons Cave.
Quite a number of Netherworld Ghost sect disciples had died here.
Moreover, they did not died at the hands of malicious ghosts, but at the hands of their fellow disciples!
Lu Li naturally had to be more cautious.
6 hours later.
There was bad news and good news.
The good news was that his Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra’s progress had fallen back to 36%.
In less than 5 days, that technique would completely fallen back to 0%.
However, the bad news was that the progress of the Indestructible Divine Technique had begun to slow down.
[Your Indestructible Divine Technique has gained some enlightenment from listening to the Buddhist scripture.]
[Progress increased by 1%.]
6 hours was only an increase of 1%.
10 hours of cultivation a day was only an increase of 3%.
Adding in the 2% increase in cultivation when Lu Li was sleeping, it was only a total of 5%.
If that was the case, it would take half a month for him to break through to the fourth level.
His cultivation speed had slowed down.
It was like a woman on a roller coaster. She would be excited and happy when the roller coaster was fast. However, when the speed slowed down, she would be dissatisfied.

Lu Li was not satisfied either.
He could only forget it as he needed to focus on his cultivation first.
In the future, if he had another opportunity, he would find another Buddhist cultivation technique to cultivate and improve his combat strength.
With the Heart Sutra, he was not afraid of the slow cultivation speed of Buddhist cultivation techniques!
After making up his mind, Lu Li calmed his heart and cultivated his Indestructible Divine Technique.
Time passed in a flash.
There were two additional records on the system log.
[Progress increased by 1%.]
[Progress increased by 1%.]
It was time to go back!
Lu Li’s mind jolted. He got up and prepared to return to his cave to sleep.
However, at that moment, his hair suddenly stood on end.
The temperature around him seemed to have dropped.
There was danger!
Lu Li turned his head abruptly and discovered that there was a ball of black qi the size of a millstone shooting toward him at a rapid speed.
It was as fast as lightning!
“This… is a malicious ghost! Eh? A spirit!”
Feeling the grievous energy surging toward him, Lu Li’s pupils constricted, and he subconsciously wanted to run.
However, he instantly realized that he was a cultivator.
What was he afraid of?
The spirit was supposed to be afraid of him!
Just as he hesitated, the black qi pounced over and suddenly stopped. It floated 3 feet away and began to circle around Lu Li.
Lu Li also saw the true body of the malicious ghost.
It was a big-headed baby ghost.
Half of its body was condensed from the ghost energy. It was as black as coal and as thin as a stick. It was only the size of a palm.
However, its head was as big as 3 winter melons.
Its 2 blood-red eyes were as big as fists, shooting out a terrifying red light.
It opened its mouth, revealing 2 rows of sharp, snow-white teeth. It was drooling too.
On a closer look, its fingernails had turned pitch-black and were as sharp as a razor.
“Wuuuu… Human… What a sweet smell of blood… Kill…” The big-headed baby ghost crawled slightly and circled around Lu Li, letting out a low whimper.
It looked ferocious and terrifying.
A malicious ghost at the seventh or eighth level of qi refining stage.
Lu Li frowned slightly.
He guessed that it was his blood that attracted this bloodthirsty baby ghost.
“This is a bit troublesome.”
Lu Li’s face darkened slightly as he stared at the big-headed baby ghost.
He slowly clenched his fist.
Hiss.
Suddenly, the big-headed baby ghost let out a sharp and ear-piercing screech.
A circle of visible sound waves shot out from its mouth and swept over like ripples spreading rapidly in the lake.
It hit Lu Li’s body in an instant.
Buzz.
Lu Li felt a stabbing pain in its head as if it had been pricked by a needle.
It was a spell attack from a malicious ghost!
By the time he came back to his senses, the big-headed baby ghost had already pounced in front of him. It opened its bloody mouth and bit viciously at Lu Li’s head.
Lu Li felt the cold ghostly aura.
Once bitten by the big-headed baby ghost, the ghostly aura would enter his body, freezing his blood and making him unable to move. Then, the ghost could do anything to him.
“Not good!”
Lu Li had no experience in killing ghosts, so he was stunned for a moment.

Then, his head was bitten by the big-headed baby ghost.
“Ah!”
Strangely, in the next moment, the big-headed baby ghost let out a shrill scream of pain and retreated at an even faster speed.
Lu Li was unharmed.
Looking at the big-headed baby ghost again, his huge mouth seemed to have been poured with sulfuric acid. It melted directly.
A huge hole appeared on the baby ghost’s face.
It looked even more terrifying and creepy.
His flesh and aura!
Lu Li immediately reacted.
Normal ghosts were afraid of sunlight, ferocious vibe, and positive qi!
His physical body had a strength of 24,000 kg. His blood and flesh were strong. He was like an oven as he was blazing hot. He was the natural nemesis of ghosts.
Moreover, the Indestructible Divine Technique he cultivated was a Buddhist technique that also countered ghosts.
Thinking up to this point, Lu Li was no longer afraid. His gaze darkened as he began to circulate his qi and blood.
Splash.
His blood began to boil.
Then, he took a step forward as he was like a fierce tiger freed from the cage. He leaped in front of the big-headed baby ghost and slapped it with his palm.
The technique he used was the Ghostly Steps Technique and the Heart-Shattering Palm Technique.
“Wu!”
Feeling the positive energy burning like the sun, the big-headed baby ghost once again released a sound wave attack. In a flash, it retreated a hundred feet away and dodged the attack.
However…
“You are a big-headed baby ghost born from pain and suffering. Your have strong resentment, and you shouldn’t have stayed in the human world. Your destiny is returning to the reincarnation. Begone.”
Lu Li’s expression was cold. He took a step forward and struck the baby ghost with his palm.
Bang.
His palm flashed with a faint golden light. It hit the big-headed baby ghost’s head and directly pierced through it.
“Ahh…”
The big-headed baby ghost let out an extremely ear-piercing scream.
Then, with a bang, the black ghostly aura exploded and filled the sky.
In the next moment, the ghostly aura that filled the sky automatically entered Lu Li’s body and disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, 3 system notifications rang in his mind.
[Your Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra has gone completely mad due to the ghostly aura entering your body. Your cultivation has regressed. ]
[Your Ghostly Steps Technique has absorbed the pure ghostly qi. Your Ghostly Steps Technique has been greatly boost. Your cultivation effect has increased by 50%.]
[Your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique has increased by 50% because you have killed your enemy. He’s in a good mood.]
