In the empty quiet room, Duan Chen sat on the futon, first carefully recalling the various keys to cultivating the first level of blood nerve in his mind before taking out a blood spirit pill from the storage bag and swallowing it.

Follow the cultivation method of the blood nerve, and start the most important step in cultivating the blood nerve, blood refining.

This blood refining is the key to cultivating blood nerves, and Duan Chen doesn't dare to relax in the slightest in this aspect.

However, speaking of which, the blood nerve is worthy of being an exercise that even Jindan monks like Ji Yunkong value very much, and the ordinary blood path exercise is simply not worth mentioning compared to the blood nerve.

The general blood path exercises are just simple refining of one's own blood, and the refining method is very rough, and the blood refining methods involved in the blood nerve are not only diverse, but also in the later stage, they can also refine the power of the bloodline of various powerful demon beasts for their own use.

With such a comparison, it is no wonder that Ji Yunkong chose to use this exercise as his main method in the future after breaking through to the Jindan realm.

But now, it's all cheaper than Duan Chen.

Of course, this kind of thought only existed in Duan Chen's mind for a short time when he first began to cultivate the blood nerves.

And when he began to refine his blood and experienced the feeling of his own blood burning in the tendons and veins, and even more painful, he suddenly felt that he was not very lucky to pick up this cheap one.

At this time, he finally understood that the process of cultivating this exercise mentioned by the Blood Nerve Founder at the beginning would be very painful, and it was not an exaggeration, but it was appropriate.

After all, the feeling of burning blood in the body, even like a pinprick in the body, is indeed far beyond the tolerance of people.

At this time, Duan Chen was a little glad that he had chosen to cultivate the Nine Yang Demon Body to the Four Yang Realm first.

In hindsight, it was a wise decision.

Because if he hadn't cultivated the Nine Yang Demon Body to the Four Yang Realm first, which greatly improved the strength of his physical body, I was afraid that he would not be able to bear the pain caused by blood refining at this moment.

In this way, Duan Chen endured the pain caused by blood refining on the one hand, and on the other hand, he carried out preliminary refining of his own blood according to the cultivation method of blood nerves.

In this process, he could feel his own blood, which seemed to be continuously absorbing the spiritual power flowing from the dantian in his body, and gradually became powerful and full of spirituality.

Of course, before Duan Chen carried out blood refining, the blood in his body had inevitably absorbed part of the spiritual power because of long-term contact with spiritual power.

Therefore, in the process of refining blood this time, Duan Chen only took three months to make the blood absorption spiritual power in his body reach a saturated state, and successfully transformed it into spiritual blood, successfully cultivating the blood nerve to the first realm.

After that, it took him another month and a half to successfully cultivate the Blood Escape Secret Technique and the Blood Burning Secret Technique respectively before he was ready to start cultivating the Demon Possession Dafa.

However, before that, Duan Chen first rested for a few days and adjusted his mind to the best state before he called out the ghost ghost from the ghost blade and ordered him to turn into a normal person size and sit down cross-legged face to face with him.

Looking at the handsome and familiar face of the ghost in front of him, Duan Chen couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked, "Ghost ghost, isn't your face transformed according to my appearance?"

Ghost Yu said with a flattering smile: "Master, you look better than Pan An, you are better than Zijian, the small one can't be compared with the master in intelligence, so I have to imitate the appearance of the master, and please don't be surprised." ”

It was not the first time that Duan Chen had gotten along with the ghosts, thinking about how lofty the ghosts were when they were summoned by Ji Yunkong, and now because they had been planted by themselves, they showed such a deferential and humble tone, which really made Duan Chen feel a little strange in his heart.

However, he didn't forget the purpose of summoning the ghost ghost this time, and said in a deep voice at the moment: "Ghost ghost, next I am going to cultivate the Dafa of ghost possession, you must cooperate with me, if you have two hearts or get in the way, what will happen to you, you should understand!"

Hearing this, Ghost You nodded hurriedly: "Master, but please rest assured, Ghost You will definitely fully cooperate with the master to cultivate the Dafa of Ghost Possession, and will never dare to have any rebellious heart." ”

Seeing this, Duan Chen nodded slightly, and finally his hands that no longer hesitated began to pinch the spell like wheels, and at the same time, he quickly recited the spell in his mouth.

Soon after, bursts of spiritual light began to flicker on Duan Chen's face, and spiritual patterns appeared.

At the same time, the ghostly figure sitting opposite Duan Chen suddenly collapsed, turning into wisps of yin qi, and quickly converged around Duan Chen's body, and then gradually recondensed the ghostly figure behind him.

At this time, the spirit patterns that appeared on Duan Chen's face, I don't know if it was because he had absorbed some of the yin qi, it had turned black, making his entire face look full of an evil qi.

"Drink!"

Suddenly, Duan Chen opened his mouth and let out a low snort, his hands quickly formed a strange magic mark, and his body was motionless, but the ghostly figure behind him was slowly descending, gradually merging with his body......

Time passed quickly, and during Duan Chen's retreat and cultivation of the Dafa of Ghost Possession, the door of the Bamboo Garden Meditation Room where he was located had never been opened again.

It wasn't until two months later that the door of the ashram finally opened, and out of it came a young man with a slightly excited expression.

Speaking of which, since Duan Chen returned from the Northern Xia Dynasty, he has been practicing in retreat in the June Courtyard Bamboo Garden, and it has been almost a year since he calculated the time.

In this year, what kind of changes have taken place in the outside world, Duan Chen is not clear.

Therefore, as soon as he came out of the customs, he immediately contacted Zhuge Xuanshuang, Li Mubai and Gu Ling'er through the disciple token of the outer palace of the Beiyuan Immortal Palace, and only then did they learn about the situation in the entire North East China region from their mouths.

Not long after Duan Chen began his retreat, a great battle that swept the five major dynasties and the Demon God Society broke out at the junction of the territory of the Northern Xia Dynasty and the other four dynasties.

Originally, everyone thought that even if the Northern Xia Dynasty had the help of the demon gods, it would be difficult to resist the army of monks gathered by the four major dynasties at the same time, but things were not so simple.

The specific situation has gradually been understood by Duan Chen after he left the customs.

It turned out that the Demon God Society had been secretly researching how to transform ordinary mortals into spells with qi refining and even foundation building strength, and now it has finally made a breakthrough.

With the help of the Demon God Society's alchemy, a large number of mortal martial artists who did not have cultivation qualifications were all transformed into qi refining and even foundation building demon cultivation, and joined this Five Dynasties War.

This enabled the Northern Xia Dynasty to compete with the other four dynasties at the level of qi refining and foundation building cultivators.

As for the Fake Dan and Jindan levels, it is said that the Ten Thousand Demon Forces far away in the Eastern Regions have already sent many Demon Clan Fake Dan Jindan monks to arrive.

So much so that in terms of the confrontation of the fake Dan Jindan monks, the four dynasties fell behind, but fortunately, the Beiyuan Immortal Palace and Tianhang Temple also sent the Jindan monks to support in time, so it did not cause a catastrophe.

As for the powerhouses of the Yuan Infant level on both sides, they have not yet chosen to participate in the large and small battles this year, so the entire battle situation is still within the controllable range.

But even so, in this sudden outbreak of the Great War of the Five Dynasties, because of the intervention of the Demon God Society and the Eastern Regions Ten Thousand Demon Forces, the situation was not as optimistic as everyone imagined at the beginning.

The four major dynasties joined forces to attack the Northern Xia Dynasty, but not only did they not have the slightest advantage, but they faintly fell behind.

Moreover, it is said that the Demon God Society still has many powerful methods that have not been used, among which the most worrying ones for the high-level of the Four Dynasties are those desolate beasts that inhabit the major mountain ranges and the Zhujin Dan Demon Beasts.

Once the demon god will use the coercion and bloodline suppression of the high-level demon clan to drive these desolate beasts and demon beasts to join the battlefield, it will definitely bring a huge threat to the army of monks of the four dynasties.

It's just that for some reason, the Demon God Society and the Northern Xia Dynasty have not used this hole card until now, and they seem to be waiting for the right time.

So much so that the monks of the Four Dynasties have always been worried about this, and they are inevitably a little uneasy in their hearts, not knowing what the demon gods will plot.

Therefore, on the premise of considering that there has always been such an army of desolate beasts and demon beasts in the hands of the Demon God Society, the four major dynasties decided to send people to win over the small states of the Southern Barbarians located in the southern part of the North East China Domain.

The so-called small states of the Southern Barbarians actually refer to the thirteen dynasties established in the southern wilderness of the North East China Domain.

These thirteen dynasties are taken out individually, and their strength is far inferior to the five major dynasties in the Northern Regions, but if they are all added together, the combat power is also very impressive.

However, it was obviously not easy for the four major dynasties to persuade the Southern Barbarian Thirteen Dynasties to join this war of the Five Dynasties.

It is only because many of the thirteen Nanban dynasties were defeated in the process of competing for hegemony with the four major dynasties, and had to choose to retreat to the dynastic forces of the Nanban development.

At this juncture, it is already good that they do not choose to attack the four major dynasties, so how can they easily agree to help the four major dynasties attack the Northern Xia Dynasty?

Of course, there are no absolute enemies or absolute friends in this world, only eternal interests.

After the four dynasties promised to capture the Northern Xia royal city in the future and achieve the final victory, they would jointly divide the territory of the Northern Xia Dynasty with the forces participating in the war, and many Southern Barbarian Dynasty forces chose to agree to join the camp of the four major dynasties.

In this process, the Northern Xia royal family and the Demon God Society are also trying their best to win over the Thirteen Southern Barbarian Dynasties, and they also make heavy promises.

However, I don't know if it's because I'm afraid of the relationship between the four dynasties, or because I don't want to betray the human race and be embarrassed by the demon clan, so although some dynastic forces choose to stand by and watch and don't help each other, so far, no one dynasty has agreed to join the Northern Xia Dynasty.

After all, unless they all choose to transfer to the demon clan exercises like the Northern Xia royal family and become a demon cultivator, if they betray the human race because of this, not only will they not be able to pass the hurdle in their hearts, but they will also be stinking for ten thousand years because of their betrayal of the human race.

But even so, many monks in the territory of the Thirteen Dynasties of the Southern Barbarians still turned around and threw themselves into the arms of the Demon God Society because they couldn't stand the temptation of the Demon God Society, or because the deadline was approaching, and they refused to sit still, so they turned around and threw themselves into the arms of the Demon God Society and chose to become a demon cultivator.

Although the four major dynasties have attracted many forces from the Thirteen Southern Barbarian Dynasties, the Demon God Society has not gained nothing.
