Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

After Lin Zheyu confirmed the safety around him, he chose a place where the demonic energy was relatively rich to stand.

In an instant.

The surging demonic energy around him rushed towards him.

Under Lin Zheyu’s frantic absorption, the turbulent demonic energy gradually condensed into small vortexes of demonic energy.

Lin Zheyu’s strength was far from what it used to be.

His strength was comparable to the Foundation Establishment Limit; even if talent was poor, the powerful strength was unbeatable.

With all his might, the demonic energy surged like a tide.

Poof—

Bone spikes grew menacingly from both shoulders, and his physique rapidly increased in height.

Hardened tumors sprouted like bamboo shoots after a rain, and in a moment, his huge body was covered densely with tumors.

Although the Primordial Golden Body remained in the second-layer realm, after the strength enhancement, Lin Zheyu’s demonic transformation became even more massive.

Previously reaching near five meters, now it reached an astonishing eight meters.

Taller, yes, but overall Lin Zheyu did not give off a weird and terrifying feeling, maintaining a strange fluidity and beauty.

Even from a human’s perspective, one couldn’t help but feel a kind of handsome strangeness.

Of course, that’s disregarding the dense spread of tumors.

The tumors covering the body seriously reduced the aesthetic appeal.

Whoosh whoosh~~

The large flesh wings opened behind him and flapped twice, stirring up a fierce wind.

Poof—

Lin Zheyu punched out, the terrifying force struck in the void, causing shallow ripples to appear throughout the void.

This anomaly occurs only when the power reaches a certain level.

Roar!

A huge roar came.

Lin Zheyu’s transformation into a demon stirred up demonic energy across several kilometers, attracting the attention of other demons.

Not long after.

A large demon as big as a tiger, with pitch-black fur and a body length of eight meters, came roaring furiously.

This was a demon at the Foundation Establishment level, with purplish magic patterns faintly shimmering with purple light.

Poof!

Lin Zheyu’s flesh wings lightly flapped, not retreating but advancing, charging towards the demon.

A huge fist slammed out fiercely, under terrifying power, raising gusts of shocking fierce winds.

Boom!

Bang!

The fist struck the demon’s head, and with terrifying power, it exploded instantly without giving the demon a chance to scream.

Lin Zheyu gently flapped his wings and gracefully landed on the ground.

In his perception, there were many demons lurking silently around, eyes glaring with intent.

However, Lin Zheyu didn’t care much.

These unorganized, scattered demons couldn’t threaten him as long as there weren’t any demons at the Six-Stripe Golden Elixir layer.

"The strength is stronger, but there’s no way to leverage the Power of Rules."

Lin Zheyu frowned slightly, speaking to himself softly.

It was the first time he attempted using the Power of Rules in the demon state, but he couldn’t manage to use it.

Not just the demon state.

Even when Lin Zheyu first entered this world, and had not yet used the demonic transformation, he couldn’t wield the power of space rules with a strike of his blade.

Judging by Lin Zheyu’s mastery over space rules, this was unusual.

Whether it’s the different rules of the Demon World compared to his original world or the lack of corresponding magic patterns on his body, remains uncertain.

Closing his eyes, pushing perception to the extreme.

Lin Zheyu planned to try discern the real reason behind it.

Hiss hiss hiss—

Lin Zheyu ran the Demon Essence within his body, and under the drive of Demon Essence, thick black smoke spurted out from the black holes in the center of his densely spread tumors.

Then, the smoke gradually reduced and eventually disappeared.

About half an hour passed.

A mysterious aura emitted from the black holes, and weak vortexes began to condense out of thin air.

Lin Zheyu abruptly opened his lantern-like black eyes.

"Just as I thought!"

"Using the rule patterns within golden runes, I can use the Power of Rules."

Lin Zheyu spoke to himself softly.

During the cultivation of the Primordial Golden Body, Lin Zheyu incorporated numerous Demon Skills, leading to mottled and messy cultivation of magic patterns.

While these magic patterns condensed golden runes, they didn’t contain strong rule power.

Contrarily, a seemingly ordinary Pusa Scripture contained an essence of ephemeral wind, perfectly preserved.

This was manifested through the black holes on the tumors.

Lin Zheyu just now leveraged the rule patterns of the ephemeral wind essence contained within the golden runes to evoke a trace of Power of Rules.

Though he didn’t know much about wind-related rules, he could forcefully call upon a tiny fraction of Power of Rules.

"In the Demon World, without engraved rule patterns on the body, it’s seemingly difficult to leverage the Power of Rules."

"Such an interesting cultivation method."

"It suits me perfectly."

"Since I am here, let’s capture powerful demons and conduct great research; it’s time to improve and optimize the Primordial Golden Body."

Lin Zheyu mused silently.

Although his Primordial Golden Body cultivated a Golden Body Dharma Aspect, it seemed like forcibly cobbled together, lacking special abilities.

Merely increased strength and enhanced defense.

Normally, the golden runes containing Rule Tao Rhyme shouldn’t be limited to such effects.

However, Lin Zheyu, during cultivation, cobbled together through various means and coincidental opportunities, leading to the cultivation of golden runes.

These golden runes lacked systemic coherence.

"That demon hidden in the purplish-red magma is quite impressive; let’s capture some for research."

Lin Zheyu pondered in his mind.

Finding demons mastering space rules isn’t easy, so Lin Zheyu had to opt for second-best.

However, that demon hidden in purplish-red magma appeared promising; the place seemed like a habitat for such demons.

Upon leaving, Lin Zheyu sensed several similar auras as that demon.

Moreover, that demon had strong defenses.

Although it possessed strength about Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, its defense was comparable to Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

The fire control skill it possessed was exceptionally powerful, after all, it can survive amidst purplish-red magma.

Aside from these points, the demon’s exquisite and fluid scales intrigued Lin Zheyu.

He had long grown weary of his densely spread tumors that tended to induce trypophobia.

Even in Golden Body Dharma Aspect state, these tumors persisted, appearing rather unsightly.

Lin Zheyu planned to test combining magic patterns of demons with beautiful scales on his body to see if these tumors would disappear, turning into scales.

Hiss hiss~~

The large flesh wings flapped behind him, and Lin Zheyu soared, flying towards the magma area.
