Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

If it weren’t for the fact that there was no one to guard this Array Hub in his place, he’d have already freed up his hands, pushed the Celestial Eye to the limit, and immersed himself completely in comprehending the Array.

Unfortunately.

Je Haomiao’s strength wasn’t enough, and he had only just gone back to rest, with no time to recover much, so he couldn’t take over the Array Hub Lin Zheyu was guarding.

Time flowed by.

This invasion from the Demon Realm lasted much longer than before, going on for a full five days.

”Damn, why are there so many of these ghost things, it’s like they can never be killed clean.”

Je Haomiao’s face was a bit pale as he cursed under his breath.

After holding on for about three days, Lin Zheyu finally showed signs of exhaustion and had Je Haomiao, who had rushed over, take over this Array Hub.

As for him, he fully immersed his mind in comprehending the Array Restrictions.

He had to admit, the effect was extremely gratifying.

But the consumption of golden Energy was also astonishing.

Hearing the voice coming from beside his ear, Lin Zheyu slowly opened his eyes, his gaze shot through with blood-red veins.

He had just finished using the Celestial Eye to comprehend the Array, and at this moment, all the golden Energy within his Sea of Consciousness had been completely depleted.

”The first Array defensive line is about to give out.”

Lin Zheyu furrowed his brows slightly and warned, ”If the Array breaks, don’t hesitate—run immediately. I’ll stay behind to cover you.”

”Alright!”

Je Haomiao’s expression was solemn as he heavily nodded.

He knew the gap between his own strength and Xiao Yu’s was enormous; staying behind would only make him a burden dragging the others down.

Without him and Zong Linjing, Senior Wa Zhengtian taking Xiao Yu with him would have a much greater chance of escaping.

”Shit, there are way too many demons, it feels like we can never kill them all.” Je Haomiao cursed.

”Nothing we can do, the demon nest is just too broken.”

”This is a clash between two worlds. With the blessing of the world’s will, I’m guessing those demons don’t have to worry about Energy consumption at all.”

”As long as there’s enough Energy, they can continuously breed powerful cannon-fodder demons.”

Lin Zheyu shook his head, speaking with a helpless tone.

Thankfully, among these cannon-fodder demons, the strongest were only at Six-Stripe Peak, which was the Golden Elixir Peak Layer.

Otherwise, what the hell would they even be fighting for.

In the Demon Realm, aside from the Innate intelligent demon species, there were also Acquired demons who, after cultivating to become Seven-Striped Demon Fiends, awakened their intelligence and became Acquired intelligent demon species.

As long as they advanced to Seven-Striped Demon Fiend, they could condense a demon nest and breed their own army of cannon-fodder demons.

”Demon nest...”

”Say, do you think the entire Demon Realm might actually be one gigantic demon nest?” Je Haomiao muttered.

”Mm, that really might be the case!”

Lin Zheyu’s eyes narrowed slightly as he nodded with a grave expression.

He had never truly come into contact with a demon nest before and wasn’t very clear on what exactly a demon nest was.

But some vague premonition told Lin Zheyu that Je Haomiao’s guess had a high chance of being true!

”Damn it, if the entire Demon Realm is a demon nest, then just how terrifying must the master of the Demon Realm be!”

A trace of fear flashed across Je Haomiao’s eyes.

That would be a great world, a demon nest on par with an entire great world—just thinking about it made one’s heart quail.

”Relax. Even if the Demon Realm is the demon nest of some terrifying demon, that demon has definitely run into some kind of problem.”

”Otherwise, with that kind of strength, it would have swallowed our world completely long ago—why wait until now?”

Lin Zheyu shook his head as he spoke.

He slowly stood up and walked to Je Haomiao’s side.

”Leave the rest to me. You restore your stamina first, then take Mr. Zong and leave ahead of time in a bit.”

Lin Zheyu placed his hand on the Array Hub and spoke lightly.

After five continuous days, under the frenzied assaults of the demon army, the first Array defensive line finally began to show signs of cracking.

Although the influx of the demon army had also started to slow, even showing signs of gradually stopping.

Before it truly ended, no one knew whether an accident might occur.

It was never wrong to prepare for withdrawal in advance.

”Alright.”

Je Haomiao responded, exhaled lightly, took out an Elixir, and swallowed it.

Then he walked to the side, sat down cross-legged, and began to recover, racing against the clock.

Fortunately.

The worst situation did not occur.

More than two hours later, the influx of the demon army from the node rift finally stopped.

The demon army within the Array was also gradually slaughtered under the continuous grinding, leaving behind a field of shattered demon corpses.

”Looks like we still have time.”

Lin Zheyu looked toward the direction of the spacetime node and murmured softly.

His figure flickered as he left the Array Hub and joined the ranks cleaning up the demon corpses.

During this period, he had already comprehended almost all of the surrounding Array Restrictions and had reached a bottleneck.

Continuing to comprehend in the short term wouldn’t bring much benefit.

Therefore.

Lin Zheyu turned his gaze to the Demonic Patterns.

The Martial Arts Divine Pattern was originally derived from the Demon Demonic Pattern.

Even now, the Martial Arts Divine Pattern still used the Demonic Pattern as its main body, integrating a bit of Immortal Dao runes and other cultivation systems into its condensation.

If he wanted to optimize the structure of the Martial Arts Divine Pattern, then aside from improving his Array Dao knowledge and learning from the Array Restrictions outside the node how to fuse Array Dao with Demonic Patterns.

Lin Zheyu also needed to deepen his understanding of Demonic Patterns.

”I’m taking this demon’s corpse. I’ll personally send it back in a few days.”

With a wave of his right hand, the corpse of a Seven-Striped Demon Fiend on the ground vanished, and only then did Lin Zheyu speak lightly.

”Yes, Senior!”
