Chapter 365: Peculiar Demonic Pus, Power Of The Universal Cauldron Physique, Absorbing The Demonic Pus
"This isn't good!"
King Chujiang was appalled.
Unlike the Chakra King and King Wuguan, he understood that they were no match for Chu Kuangren.
It was too easy for Chu Kuangren to obliterate them. Hence, when the Chakra King and King Wuguan made their moves, King Chujiang could already predict how it would play out.
Chu Kuangren merely lifted his hand and swatted his hand like he was swapping a group of fruit flies before a boundless amount of energy erupted.
Unable to defend themselves against the force of Chu Kuangren's attack, the Chakra King and King Wuguan spit out mouthfuls of fresh blood as they were sent flying. One of them landed on the Hellfire and a spark flew out, reducing the Supreme Honorable to ashes in an instant.
The other fell into the pool of demonic pus.
The demonic pus immediately bubbled more ferociously, as if it was a living creature that was wrapping its arms around the king. King Wuguan let out a pitiful wail as the demonic pus ensnared him and his body began to release a stream of white smoke before it was corroded into nothing but bones!
Some of the demonic cultivators doubted their eyes, but they then noticed that the demonic pus seemed to have... increased in volume!
"That's not good! Not only does the demonic pus erode the flesh of a cultivator, but it can also turn the cultivator's spiritual energies into demonic qi!" Yuan Wuhan was shocked at this surprising feature of the demonic pus.
This was never recorded in the archives that he had gone through.
What in this world had the Demonic Hoarder Forefather created?
Boom...
The entire basement began to tremble.
It was then everyone noticed that the pool was slowly expanding and a large amount of demonic pus poured outwards. It was more pus than they had ever witnessed!
Moreover, they noticed that a large crater had formed below the pool as well, and within it was a pile of bones!
There were so many of them that it formed a mountain!
Those were probably bones that came from at least a hundred thousand people!
"Holy sh*t!"
"Quick, let's go!"
King Chujiang led the remaining demonic cultivators to flee for their lives.
However, the demonic pus spread like wildfire. In the blink of an eye, it had covered the entire underground basement and it rose to the surface, drowning the Demonic Hoarder Forefather's entire residence before it rushed towards the entrance.
King Chujiang and the other demonic cultivators could not avoid the demonic pus in time and they, too, were reduced to bones.
On the contrary, the Hellfire did not extinguish when the demonic pus enveloped it. Instead, like fire on gasoline, the demonic pus was ignited and formed into an ocean of Hellfire!
"That's a lot of demonic pus!"
Yuan Wudao channeled his demonic qi to form a forcefield as he stared at the demonic pus with a fiery passion in his eyes.
Yuan Wudao realized that if he was to absorb the abundant stream of demonic pus, just how strong would he get?!
At this point, he was trembling in excitement.
"What an opportunity of a lifetime!"
"The only thing that's holding me back is that this demonic pus is filled with the resentment of countless cultivators it had consumed. It's way more ravaging than I imagined. With my abilities, I could only absorb a limited amount each time, and I must find a way to get rid of that Hellfire on it."
Yuan Wudao murmured.
He then looked at Chu Kuangren, who was surrounded by a surge of mythical Daoist Rhyme and a garden of white lotuses. Any demonic pus that neared Chu Kuangren was instantly cleansed and removed.
"Heh, this must be the White Lotus Light of Purification. It is extraordinary, but too bad there's no way he can cleanse the entire sea of demonic pus with that! Even the White Lotus Sage Ruler himself would have problems dealing with this highly purified demonic qi essence and the Hellfire!" Yuan Wudao was gloating at Chu Kuangren from the sidelines.
Only those who cultivated the demonic qi could navigate freely across this demonic pus, and it would recognize him as one of its own.
"Master, what should we do?"
Lan Yu asked Chu Kuangren.
"Don't worry, this is nothing."
Chu Kuangren smiled at the sight of the sea of demonic pus. "Just stay here and don't move. I'll only take a moment."
Then, Chu Kuangren dispersed his White Lotus Light of Purification.
With that, Lan Yu activated her Holy Radiant Physique to defend against the demonic pus. She was surprised when she saw Chu Kuangren walking into the depths of the demonic pus, undefended.
Yuan Wuhan's eyes were wide with shock as well.
"Even a Sage Ruler would undoubtedly die by walking into the demonic pus! What's this b*stard thinking?!"
Yuan Wuhan thought that Chu Kuangren's action was nothing but a suicidal move.
The demonic pus covered Chu Kuangren's ankle before it made its way up to his knee, his waist...
Soon, the demonic pus had swallowed Chu Kuangren whole.
With the thick layer of demonic pus barrier, Yuan Wudao could no longer sense Chu Kuangren's aura either.
Yet amid Yuan Wudao's confusion, the surrounding demonic pus began to boil and flow back to its source!
The demonic pus was sucked back into the pool that it came from as if it had a terrifying gravitational force.
Yuan Wudao could not believe his eyes. He knew that all of this could only be Chu Kuangren's doings!
"What did he do now?!"
Yuan Wudao stared deadly into the depths of the pool.
Most of the demonic pus had flowed back into the pool, yet the pool did not seem filled. In fact, it seemed like the pus had been absorbed by a strange presence.
The demonic pus gradually reduced in volume before it eventually converged into a human-shaped precipitate. Then, when the precipitate dispersed, Chu Kuangren's figure was revealed. He was the one who had absorbed the abundant amount of demonic pus into his body!
Yuan Wudao began to feel a little faint, and he doubted if this was just a dream.
Chu Kuangren absorbing the sea of demonic pus was incomprehensible for Yuan Wudao. Despite having cultivated the demonic qi, even Yuan Wudao could only absorb a limited amount of demonic pus each time!
Yet, Chu Kuangren had sucked the entire pool of demonic pus clean and the Hellfire that burned along with it. He was out of this world!
"So this is the power of the Universal Cauldron Physique? This is fascinating!"
Chu Kuangren was happy with the energies of the demonic pus and Hellfire that was within his body. It was no surprise that compared to the demonic pus, the energy from the Hellfire was almost negligible.
The Universal Cauldron Physique was a physique that could absorb the energies of various elements that existed in all the realms.
The demonic qi was one such element, which allowed Chu Kuangren to absorb the demonic pus.
In fact, the Universal Cauldron Physique was far more powerful than Chu Kuangren had envisioned. He did not expect to absorb all of this demonic pus in such a short amount of time!
That being said, this was merely absorption and should not be confused with refinement.
Aside from absorption and refinement of energies, the Universal Cauldron Physique was also capable of storing all types of energies within a cultivator's body.
Chu Kuangren could now sense that each inch of his flesh and even each of his cells was filled with the boundless amount of energy from the demonic pus!
All he needed to do was to channel his spiritual thought before this energy could be refined into usable spiritual energies.
However, Chu Kuangren did not intend to refine it anytime soon. He wanted to save this abundant amount of energy for his ascension into the Supreme Sage Realm!
"You, how did you do it?!" Yuan Wudao could no longer mask his curiosity and shock.
Chu Kuangren simply lifted his hands and replied to Yuan Wuhan with the Giant Palm of Exorcism.
