Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 368: Void Essence

In the room, Gu Xi sat cross-legged on the bed, surrounded by faint spiritual energy. His chest rose and fell steadily, and the spiritual energy in his Dantian was replenishing his previous consumption at an extremely fast speed.

In less than two hours, the spiritual energy in his body had fully recovered. Not only that, he even felt that his cultivation level had reached a bottleneck, and he was only a hair’s breadth away from breaking through to the intermediate stage of the Saint stage.

With a flip of his hand, a jade bottle appeared in his palm. This was the Saint Breakthrough Pill that he had refined previously.

Gu Xi could not wait to consume it, but after some mental struggle, he still chose to put it away. He did not want to attract the other demon beasts in the void again because of the huge commotion caused by the breakthrough.

He still had to remember the lessons from the past. He could not forget the pain after he recovered.

“I wonder how the Void Devouring Beast is doing now.”

Gu Xi said to himself, and his mind quickly sank into the demon beast space. It did not take long for him to find the wisp of gray in it.

The current Void Devouring Beast was not only much different in size compared to before, but the aura it emitted was also completely different from before.

If the Void Devouring Beast from before was compared to a vicious tiger, then it was now like a docile sheep. Its entire body did not reveal the slightest bit of fiendish aura, it was as if it was just a space that was constantly squirming and collapsing.

“Roar roar roar…”

At this moment, a low roar sounded.

Gu Xi subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound and saw a golden stream of light flying towards them at an extremely fast speed from afar.

Upon sensing this aura, Gu Xi did not panic in the slightest. Instead, a smile appeared on his face.

Soon, the golden light had already arrived in front of him. After the light gradually dissipated, Little Jin’s figure appeared.

At this moment, Little Jin was still in the form of a carp. It was continuously wagging its tail, and its pair of golden pupils seemed to contain some resentment.

Gu Xi naturally understood why. Previously, during the great battle with the Void Devouring Beast, Little Jin had wanted to appear many times to fight to the death for Gu Xi. Fortunately, Gu Xi had used a method to forcefully seal off the demon beast space, this was why Little Jin did not have the chance to come out and fight.

This was because he was extremely clear that although Little Jin’s current strength was indeed not ordinary, compared to the Void Devouring Beast back then, the gap between the two was still too huge.

If he was slightly careless, Little Jin might fall under the Void Devouring Beast’s hands!

However, at the last crucial moment, Gu Xi used all his strength but was unable to threaten the Void Devouring Beast. Helplessly, he originally wanted to release Little Jin to delay for a while, but he did not expect Little Nine to wake up. Naturally, Little Jin’s matter was no longer a problem.

In front of Elder Gu and the others, revealing Little Nine’s existence was enough. Once again revealing a divine beast that only existed in the ancient books, this action was clearly not rational.

“Be good. If there’s any danger next time, you go first.”

Gu Xi lovingly stroked Little Jin’s head. Only then did the resentment in the latter’s eyes slightly decrease. However, it still did not really want to pay attention to Gu Xi.

Seeing this, Gu Xi also helplessly shook his head. This demon beast had a thought. It was no different from a living person.

“I just don’t know if Little Jin is male or female.”

Gu Xi thought to himself, when Little Jin’s strength improves in the future, when he possesses the ability to transform… He would not be like the current Little Nine, staying outside and refusing to come in, right?

When he thought of this, he felt a headache coming on. He shook his head and did not think any further. Immediately, Gu Xi’s gaze once again landed on the Void Devouring Beast in front of him.

“This shape doesn’t seem right. Why can’t I feel any thoughts?” after sizing it up for a long time, Gu Xi mumbled doubtfully.

According to his previous experience of subduing Little Jin, after extracting the impurities from the demon beast’s body, he should be able to form a contract with the demon beast under him. However, Gu Xi did not feel any life force from the Void Devouring Beast’s body.

It was as if this was simply a space.

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, then curiously raised his hand and touched it. However, to his surprise, when his hand touched the gray, a cold aura instantly spread from his arm to his limbs and bones.

In the next moment, the gray disappeared at a rapid pace. When it reappeared, it had already entered his body.

Gu Xi was shocked. He subconsciously looked inside his body and realized that the gray color had gradually disappeared, as if it had become one with him.

“What’s going on?” Gu Xi immediately questioned the System. Although he did not feel that there was anything wrong with his body, a sense of danger immediately surged into his heart.

The Void Devouring Beast that was previously invincible had now entered his body and disappeared without a trace. Anyone would feel extremely flustered.

[The Void Devouring Beast is a product of the void. Strictly speaking, it does not belong to the category of demon beasts. Therefore, after being extracted, it can not be transformed into a contracted demon beast. Instead, it can be transformed into pure void essence.]

The System’s cold voice quickly gave Gu Xi a reply.

Gu Xi’s expression froze. However, after hearing this, he was slightly relieved. Since the System did not indicate that there was any danger, then he would definitely not make a mistake.

“Void essence, what is the use of absorbing this thing?”

Gu Xi asked again as she calmed her heart and began to feel the changes in her body.

[After absorbing the void essence, you will have the ability to control the void. From now on, you will be able to ignore most of the spatial energy or void attacks.]

Hearing this, Gu Xi could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Ignore the attacks of the spatial energy?!

Did this mean that even if he walked out of the barrier that surrounded the spirit boat, he would no longer have to worry about being attacked by the spatial energy outside?!

In addition to the ability to manipulate the void! Although this ability was not rare among high-level cultivators, if he wanted to truly use the power of space, he had to be at least at the Great Saint stage!

For example, Elder Gu and Elder Yun were both at the Great Saint stage, but their control of the power of space was only limited to short-distance teleportation. However, if they wanted to use it in battle, at the very least, they had to start from the Quasi-emperor stage!

“What level of Control?” Gu Xi asked expectantly.

[Perfect control!]

The System’s answer almost made him cry out in excitement.

Perfect control. In other words, with his current Saint stage, he could rival an Emperor stage cultivator’s control of the void!
