Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 755: Chapter 678: Ascend to the Peak 77

This Spiritual Fire can even burn away the poison gas carried by the Demon Clan, showing its extraordinary power. However, the Spiritual Fire is still quite weak. Every time Yan Xing uses it, he needs to put it back into the Spirit Mansion to nurture it for a long time before it can be used again.

Fortunately, Tan Shuangshuang has a large batch of Fire Spirit Essence, which is the nourishment for the Spiritual Fire, making it perfect for Yan Xing’s use. And the price of Fire Spirit Essence is even more expensive than Spirit Stones.

Tan Shuangshuang has few Spirit Stones, but she has a full Mid-grade Storage Stone filled with Fire Spirit Essence. Just taking out a small portion, equivalent to a scoop of soil at the foot of a mountain, is enough to equal the value of that High-level Storage Stone.

Yan Xing didn’t expect that in his moment of fervor and excitement to give Tan Shuangshuang a gift, he ended up getting a great benefit himself! Although this scarce High-level Storage Stone is precious, for him, it’s not something unattainable.

However, Fire Spirit Essence is different; it’s rarer than a High-level Storage Stone. Although a single piece of Fire Spirit Essence isn’t as valuable as a High-level Storage Stone, it’s valuable when in abundance.

Unlike other things, which become precious due to rarity, Fire Spirit Essence is the opposite; the more there is, the more valuable it becomes. Everyone knows that Fire Spirit Essence is the nourishment for Spiritual Fire, and a single piece or two isn’t valuable because even ten pieces barely benefit the Spiritual Fire.

But if there is enough to nurture a Spiritual Fire, the value of Fire Spirit Essence can increase a hundredfold or more! The amount Tan Shuangshuang offered was so much that auctioning it could buy four High-level Storage Stones!

Yan Xing wouldn’t take advantage of Tan Shuangshuang. First, he was afraid she would suffer a loss, so he explained to her the correct auction method for Fire Spirit Essence. Then, he gave Tan Shuangshuang three High-level Storage Stones, which convinced her that he indeed had plenty of High-level Storage Stones.

Since she had paid, Tan Shuangshuang happily put away the three High-level Storage Stones, planning to use one for herself, one for her master Ling Wuchen, and one for her Second Grandmaster Si Kaojing.

Another one for her baby, Fei Hu. Previously, Tan Shuangshuang didn’t dare to give Fei Hu a Mid-grade Storage Stone, fearing it might leak its aura and attract others’ covetous eyes. With a High-level Storage Stone, she no longer has to worry about that.

Then, Tan Shuangshuang thought about using more Fire Spirit Essence to trade for a few more High-level Storage Stones from Yan Xing, as she still wanted to give one to her grandfather, Tan Wencheng, one to her uncle, Tan Qianzheng, one to her brother, Tan Feiyu, and one to her master, Si Kou Feng, who had always supported her with resources despite his closed-door cultivation.

Although she was tempted, Tan Shuangshuang decided to wait a few days before making a decision, as the immediate priority was still combat and cultivation.

After sending off Yan Xing, only a few days passed before the Demon Clan invaded again, sparking another battle. Tan Shuangshuang headed for the battlefield but this time, she prepared several Storage Bags exclusively to hold the heads of slain Demon Clan members.

Each time there was a battle with the Demon Clan, it would be a prolonged engagement, and whenever the fighting ended, the Demon Clan would try to retreat with their dead, because they knew how much the human cultivators’ Demon Cultivators valued the cores within their heads.

Demon Cultivators are the nemesis of the Demon Clan, so naturally, they take away anything that could strengthen their adversaries. Previously, Tan Shuangshuang didn’t quite understand the cores’ value to the Demon Cultivators, but now that she knew, she wasn’t going to let the Demon Clan easily take away their dead.

Long periods of fighting had accustomed Tan Shuangshuang to high-intensity combat. Given her Body Cultivation, her stamina was excellent. While others were exhausted after the battle, she still had energy to continue fighting.

So, as the Demon Clan dragged their kin’s corpses while preparing to retreat, Tan Shuangshuang unleashed her Thousand Silk Entanglement, which had now grown to thirty threads, ruthlessly targeting those low-level Demon Clan members dragging the corpses.

Whenever Tan Shuangshuang engaged, the seasoned High-level Cultivators, accustomed to following her lead on the low-level cultivators’ battlefield, reflexively joined in the attack.

Tan Shuangshuang’s attacks were area-based, her Thousand Silk Entanglement covered the sky and earth. After a massacre, countless low-level Demon Clan members fell, terrifying those retreating, but they quickly realized her attack focused solely on those dragging their kin’s bodies.

Tan Shuangshuang’s message was clear: either leave the corpses and walk away, or become corpses and accompany their kin.

These low-level Demon Clan members weren’t foolish; letting the enemy take their bodies and joining them in death wasn’t a choice worth making. All who were dragging the bodies dropped them immediately after realizing the Thousand Silk Entanglement’s pattern and retreated swiftly.

After the battle, the high-level Demon Clan cores within Tan Shuangshuang’s side numbered over a thousand, and the low-level cores were countless, all intentionally preserved during the fight by her.

Yan Xing was correct in his assumption. With Tan Shuangshuang’s current combat power equivalent to the fourth or fifth-rank Military General, sparing some effort to secure more Demon Clan cores was no difficulty.

The Demon Clan is a species with a strong urge for expansion. Each time they invade another world, they either succeed or are beaten back until they can no longer invade, so wars against the Demon Clan historically never end quickly.

In the blink of an eye, Tan Shuangshuang had been on the battlefield for three years. The relentless combat accelerated her cultivation growth, and she had now become a master at Martial King Perfection, battling on the High-level cultivators’ battlefield.

Thanks to the Three Transformation Body Molding Art, Tan Shuangshuang’s combat power had always allowed her to exceed a Great Realm. With prolonged battlefield honing, her physical strength grew, and her Thousand Silk Entanglement could now divide into over seven hundred branches, overwhelming her enemies. With each attack, swathes of Demon Clan members perished.

Since Tan Shuangshuang became a Martial King, her addition on the battlefield significantly reduced the casualties among Human Clan Advanced Cultivators, while high-level Demon Clan members suffered heavy losses, as Tan Shuangshuang particularly targeted Military Generals and Martial Kings.

What made the Demon Clan despise her even more was Tan Shuangshuang’s habit of singling out strong Demon Clan members, always ensuring none could escape, guiding her Thousand Silk Entanglement to furtively harvest their heads.

Now the Demon Clan harbors both fear and hatred towards Tan Shuangshuang. Whenever she sets foot on the battlefield, the area clears, and any Demon Clan member who spots her flees rapidly, afraid of losing their heads in an instant.

Once, several Martial Sect-level Demon Clan members, confident in their superiority over Tan Shuangshuang by a Great Realm, attempted to kill her, their fearsome adversary. However, they ended up being killed by Tan Shuangshuang in return. That battle was particularly intense, as ten or more Martial Sect members assaulted her!
