The Fiend Demon Art, this cultivation method can also continuously enhance the strength of the avatar through baleful aura.
Of course, baleful aura was originally used to increase the strength of the cultivator who primarily cultivates this technique, but the avatar can also use this method to increase its strength.
Zhang Ling is naturally quite knowledgeable about baleful aura.
The Fiend Demon Art was originally created based on devouring Yin Baleful and Yang Baleful to increase strength.
Yin Baleful refers to that which is condensed using the power of demon beasts, similar to how other cultivators use demon souls to perform demon transformation secret techniques.
The Yang Baleful refers to the Yang energy condensed from a cultivator's body; everyone has this kind of Yang Baleful.
Or rather, anything alive has it; it is formed from the lifeblood energy of living beings.
For example, martial artists among mortals who cultivate martial arts to the innate strength level, the innate stellar energy they can release is formed from the power of Yang Baleful.
Of course, it's not to say that the stellar energy released by those innate martial artists is all Yang Baleful.
The aura between heaven and earth can be generalized as baleful aura. Some people who cultivate Yin-cold techniques have stellar energy on their bodies that is transformed from Yin Baleful.
Whether it is Yin Baleful or Yang Baleful, there are many uses. Naturally, this is also the case for cultivators.
The Human Origin Baleful Pill refined within Zhang Ling's vines was initially described as a Yang Baleful treasure.
And the Corpse Bear is naturally a typical Yin Baleful body.
Although the Corpse Bear is a corpse that has gained intelligence, it belongs to neither living nor dead things. This precisely meets the refining conditions for the Fiend Demon avatar.
After deciding to cultivate the Fiend Demon avatar, Zhang Ling began to prepare. For this, he went to Remnant Moon Peak again, stayed there for a few days, and purchased many auxiliary plants.
Thus, after preparing for more than half a month, Zhang Ling entered the quiet room again to begin refining the Fiend Demon avatar.
In the quiet room, Zhang Ling sat cross-legged, holding a thick vine about ten feet long in his hand. Two-colored light flowed on the vine.
As the vine continuously changed, the tip of the vine continuously split, forming several small vines.
These vines were constantly squirming, like earthworms.
Zhang Ling looked at the vine expressionlessly.
Soon after, a layer of bright blue-red light covered Zhang Ling's body, enveloping him. Only the vine was visible, constantly splitting into smaller vines.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Ling's face was a little pale.
At this moment, in his hand, there was a foot-long cyan vine constantly swimming, very spiritual.
This was split from the main root of the vine that parasitized his body.
"Hehe, it really hurts a bit." Zhang Ling grinned.
He split off this vine to use it to open hidden meridians in the Corpse Bear's body. This was also a clever method.
Originally, this vine was peculiar, and it was already stained with a lot of his blood essence and aura. It could be said to be his natal object.
Using a part of the vine to open hidden meridians was the most suitable.
Zhang Ling looked at the vine in his hand and pondered, then he closed his eyes and began to meditate. It had taken him a lot of effort to extract this vine from the heart position, consuming some of his vitality.
After meditating for a few hours, Zhang Ling recovered.
Then he began to open the hidden meridians in the Corpse Bear's body. He first threw the vine in his hand, fixing it in the air.
Then, with a thought, the senior brother who had been waiting on the side flashed and stood under the vine.
The vine then began to grow longer and thicker, and then differentiated into gray-green vine threads.
At first glance, it looked like a large number of gray-green threads were falling.
Countless gray threads simultaneously coiled around the Corpse Bear, constantly flashing with spiritual light.
Zhang Ling took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He began to release all of his divine sense, commanding the vine threads to drill into the Corpse Bear's body.
Aow!
As the first thread entered the Corpse Bear's body, the Corpse Bear also roared, seeming to resist.
The Corpse Bear's body trembled continuously, and even the corpse fire within its body emerged.
Zhang Ling, however, didn't care. He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of yellow essence, which turned into a yellow glow and entered its body. Immediately, the corpse fire on the Corpse Bear was suppressed.
Subsequently, the large number of vine threads surrounding it entered the Corpse Bear's body without any obstruction.
In the following days, Zhang Ling remained motionless in a meditative posture, but as time passed, his expression became solemn again.
It wasn't until twelve days later that Zhang Ling opened his eyes.
With a flip of his hand, two jade bottles appeared.
With two soft popping sounds, the bottles were opened, and a white jade pill and a dark black-green pill flew out.
"Meridian Changing Pill" and "Spirit Fusion Pill" were the names of these two pills.
They did not have accurate ranks; they were both special pills. Only demon refiners could refine them. Their effect was to open up the meridians on a demon refiner's body.
Both of these elixirs were genuine products, not easy to refine. The materials used were also special; their main ingredient was not rare spirit grass.
These two pills were auxiliary pills for opening up hidden meridians. They cost him more than 60,000 spirit stones.
For any normal person, the meridians on their body are originally open. Only some demon refiners who fuse the power of demon beasts will use this special pill.
The so-called fusion of demon beast power refers to a demon refiner finding a suitable demon beast based on their own cultivation technique and directly transplanting a small portion of the demon beast's blood essence.
This is a common secret technique used by demon refiners. Fusing demon beast blood essence will cause some hidden dangers, causing the body's meridians to undergo some variations. In this case, the corpse fire requires the Meridian Changing Pill and the Spirit Fusion Pill, these two kinds of elixirs to open up the meridians.
Otherwise, at best, the circulation of the cultivation technique will be hindered; at worst, the meridians will be damaged, or even the entire body's meridians will be destroyed, becoming a cripple.
The reason for this is naturally the rejection formed by the human body and the power of the demon beast. The stronger the demon beast blood essence fused, the stronger the rejection.
Some demon refiners who are not strong enough, if they forcibly fuse demon beast blood essence that is too much stronger than their own strength, may even directly become a half-demon body.
Of course, Zhang Ling has no such concerns and does not care if the Corpse Bear will undergo any mutations.
He used these two pills because the strange vine root system, as meridians, will also have some rejection when fused with the Corpse Bear's body. Naturally, these pills can be used.
And these are all special methods recorded in the Fiend Demon Art, which can greatly increase the chance of opening up hidden secrets.
Zhang Ling glanced at the two precious pills, and with a wave of his hand, two balls of spiritual power wrapped the pills and went to the top of the Corpse Bear's head.
Then, he pinched a magic seal in his hand, and the Corpse Bear's body trembled a few times. Its mouth opened wide, and two vines flashed and rolled the pills into its mouth.
Then, with a thought from Zhang Ling, the corpse energy on the Corpse Bear's body condensed, and the corpse fire appeared again, turning into a layer of gray-white spiritual light cover, wrapping itself inside.
Zhang Ling then closed his eyes again, using his divine sense to control the Corpse Bear to begin refining the pills with corpse fire.
This is a very long process.
