The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 86

The world outside was full of chaos and distractions, but Chu Xuan, now imbued with the Evil Wood Spiritual Body, was calmly focusing on his own plan—breaking through to the seventh level of Foundation Establishment.

On this day, after a year of meditative sitting, a sudden surge of energy exploded within Chu Xuan. The bottleneck that had constrained him for three years finally showed signs of loosening.

Chu Xuan let out a low growl, accelerating the circulation of the Blood Evil Demon Refining Scripture. Spiritual Qi burst forth from his Qi Sea like a towering tidal wave, repeatedly slamming against the barrier in front of him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The first attempt did not break through. Neither did the second. Nor the third, fourth, or fifth... It was only on the sixth attempt that the overwhelming Spiritual Qi finally shattered the barrier.

In an instant, Chu Xuan felt a profound sense of clarity. When he regained his senses, his Qi Sea had expanded significantly, at least doubling in size compared to the sixth level of Foundation Establishment. This was the difference between the mid and late stages of the Foundation Establishment.

"Finally, I have entered the late stage of Foundation Establishment!" Chu Xuan stood up, feeling immensely relieved and exhilarated. "With the strength of the late stage of Foundation Establishment, I should be able to claim my share of the chaotic and dangerous Wu Province!"

Immediately, Chu Xuan activated the Blood Mirror and returned to Mystic Azure Realm!

...

In Wu Province, outside the Ironwire Mountains, within a seemingly ordinary cave, Chu Xuan appeared abruptly.

Previously, the Extreme Yin Cave had been compelled to join the war under orders from the Heavenly Seal Sect.

Chu Xuan had been dispatched to the Ironwire Mountains to rescue two cultivators from the Heavenly Seal Sect who were trapped there. He had been ambushed by a Gu Master from the Ironwire Mountains. After assessing the significant disparity in strength between himself and his enemy, he had chosen to retreat to this cave.

Before heading to Blue Star, he had carefully laid numerous formations within the cave to ensure that no one could discover anything about this place. Now, upon his return, Chu Xuan immediately checked these formations. Confirming that there were no signs of intrusion, he finally felt at ease.

His biggest concern had been encountering enemies waiting for him immediately upon his arrival through the Blood Mirror—a truly dire scenario.

"I spent a total of four years cultivating on Blue Star, which amounts to forty-eight months. Converted to the time here, that's about five months," Chu Xuan mused. "A lot can change in five months. I can't act rashly; I need to gather intelligence first."

Disguised with a rugged bearded face, Chu Xuan soared towards the battlefield he remembered. It wasn't long before he encountered a skirmish. Three Qi Refining stage cultivators were locked in fierce combat. Two were from the Heavenly Seal Sect, while one was a cultivator from the Blood Bee Cave, a sect under the Thousand Insects Sect and roughly equal in power to the Ironwire Mountains.

Chu Xuan recalled that Li Xuanming had once been tasked with assisting the Blood Bee Cave.

The Blood Bee Cave cultivator clearly had the upper hand, aggressively commanding a swarm of blood bees, overwhelming the two Heavenly Seal Sect cultivators who were already heavily wounded and depleted of Spiritual Qi.

"Senior brother, we should flee!" the shorter and thinner of the two Heavenly Seal Sect cultivators despaired.

"Junior brother, you run first," the taller and thinner cultivator replied, eyes rolling as he plotted his escape.

"Die, demonic cultivators of the Heavenly Seal Sect!" the Blood Bee Cave cultivator laughed cruelly, directing the swarm of blood bees towards the taller cultivator.

In a moment of ruthless decision, the taller cultivator grabbed his shorter companion and threw him behind himself as a shield. The bees swarmed over the smaller cultivator, stinging his face and chest mercilessly. Their sharp mandibles quickly tore away flesh, revealing ghastly white bones underneath.
