Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 104 - 97: 7 Years and 5 Months [Vote for Recommendation!]_2
It is indeed the Black Vein Golden Butterfly!
"Hun Mountain Demon King actually killed the Black Vein King?!"
When Lu Qingfeng saw the corpse of the Black Vein King in the cave dwelling of the Hun Mountain Demon King, he was thoroughly shocked. The Black Vein King was a powerful general under the Hun Mountain Demon King, and Lu Qingfeng had been paying attention to him for years. It was said that over two hundred years ago, the Black Vein King accidentally perished during the Four-nine Thunder Tribulation, leaving no remains.
Unexpectedly, the corpse was in the hands of the Hun Mountain Demon King.
"What does the Hun Mountain Demon King want with the corpse of the Black Vein Golden Butterfly?"
With a thought, Lu Qingfeng began his calculations.
Indistinctly, he seemed to see the Black Vein Golden Butterfly succeeding in its tribulation, yet covered in scars. A War Ape holding a long staff mixed with stardust suddenly leapt out from a hidden spot in the Void, striking down with the staff—
"This Hun Mountain Demon King—"
Lu Qingfeng's gaze swept over the enormous body of the Black Vein Golden Butterfly, noting the horrifying burn marks on it, which were the fatal blow caused by the Hun Mountain Demon King.
Amid his calculations, a sudden pain in his finger made Lu Qingfeng stop his derivations, unable to figure out why the Hun Mountain Demon King had killed the Black Vein Golden Butterfly.
Instead, an extremely intriguing idea occurred to him, "Derivation Technique can analyze Magic Artifacts and Elixir Pills, could it possibly derive something from the corpse of a divine beast?!"
With this thought, Lu Qingfeng's eyes suddenly brightened with anticipation.
Unwilling to delay, he immediately began the analysis.
While the corpse of the Black Vein Golden Butterfly wasn't urgent, to avoid any unexpected situations, Lu Qingfeng decided to first analyze the Lifespan Extension Pill to ensure nothing went wrong.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, another eleven years.
...
In the game, four lifetimes of prosperity, seven hundred and forty-three years passed in an instant.
In reality, seven years and five months had also elapsed.
Lu Qingfeng and his companions had been in the Crying Swamp for more than seven years.
Just a few days ago, Lu Qingfeng had just celebrated his twenty-eighth birthday.
During these seven years, Lu Qingfeng had focused on "Primordial". In reality, besides his daily cultivation, he mostly refined puppets.
Even so, he had reached the Sixth Layer of the True Qi Realm. In three to five years at most, he would be able to touch the bottleneck leading to Foundation Establishment.
Besides his cultivation level, Lu Qingfeng had mastered another True Sect Level Cultivation Method—
"The Twelve Heavenly Demon God Skill"!
This method was gained by the Fiery Fire Wanderer from the Dutian Fierce Fire Divine Banner. The original was only at the side door level. Due to the limited understanding of the Fiery Fire Wanderer, it couldn't compare to the "Twelve Heavenly Divine Evil Skill." However, after Lu Qingfeng enhanced it to the True Sect Level, it far surpassed the "Twelve Heavenly Divine Evil Skill," so Lu Qingfeng didn't waste Experience Value to exchange for the side door level method derived from it.
"The Twelve Heavenly Demon God Skill" is a profound and unfathomable Demon Dao Method. During cultivation, it gathers the thoughts of the demon gods from the cosmic void, visualizing the Twelve Heavenly Demon Gods, enabling cultivators to fight fiercely. Mere storage of mana could also allow a cultivator who practices this method to possess at least double and at most twelve times more mana than a cultivator of the same level practicing a similar method.
It was thanks to this method that Lu Qingfeng at Zhou Yuan Mountain was able to activate the Dutian Fierce Fire Immortal Array and refine the Hun Mountain Demon King.
In the Postnatal Stage, this method only allows visualization of a single demon god, equal in cultivation to oneself, albeit lacking agility and change, similar to a stiff puppet.
The function of storing mana is greater than its use in actual combat.
Having enhanced "The Twelve Heavenly Demon God Skill" to the True Sect Level, Lu Qingfeng boosted its combat capabilities, able to exert seventy to eighty percent of his fighting power. The higher the cultivation, the more demon gods visualized, the more terrifying it becomes.
Even now, with Lu Qingfeng at the Sixth Layer of the True Qi Realm, visualizing the Zhu Rong Demon God, with an animal head and human body, clad in red scales, ears adorned with fire snakes, and feet standing on fire dragons, he can wield the Dutian Fierce Fire and Zhu Rong Divine Flame, extraordinarily fierce.
With the assistance of the demon god, and backed by the two True Sect Level Cultivation Methods "Luo Fu Sword Scripture" and "Iron Refining Body," Lu Qingfeng's combat power far exceeds that of the True Qi Realm, defying ordinary reasoning.
"Yellow Court Scripture's 'Domination of All Methods' trait allows me to cultivate many cultivation techniques and Daoist skills simultaneously; even if they conflict with each other, they can achieve balance and even complement and enhance one another."
Lu Qingfeng, after long research, has his own understanding of the 'Domination of All Methods' trait.
With three True Sect Level Skills enhancing him, he alone possesses triple the True Qi of a cultivator who cultivates just one True Sect Level Cultivation Method. Moreover, with the uniqueness of 'Twelve Heavenly Demon God Skill', he gains another double the True Qi at the Postnatal Stage.
At this moment, Lu Qingfeng's total amount of True Qi is four times that of a cultivator who cultivates the True Sect Level Cultivation Method!
Compared to cultivators of the same level who cultivate Side Door Level, Refined Level, or merely Basic Level skills, his True Qi exceeds theirs by at least eight times, and at most thirty-two times, with a quality beyond comparison!
He can freely convert the properties of True Qi. Moreover, he has mastered several Divine Skills, more than ten super-level techniques, and high-level techniques.
He has profound foundations with countless trump cards!
It is difficult to find a peer cultivator in the human realm who can match Lu Qingfeng.
"However, cultivating three True Sect Level Cultivation Methods simultaneously, the various consumptions are three times or even more compared to a cultivator who cultivates just one method."
Every advantage has its disadvantage.
For Lu Qingfeng, who has ways to make money, the benefits of cultivating three methods undoubtedly outweigh the disadvantages.
Yet, at the moment, he is in the Crying Swamp; without materials, he could neither refine Elixir Pills nor Artifacts and thus couldn't exchange for cultivation resources.
It was manageable until reaching the late stage of the True Qi Realm; at the Sixth Layer of True Qi Realm, he started struggling.
...
"It's time to leave the Crying Swamp!"
Lu Qingfeng stood up tall and walked out of the Giant Turtle Puppet.
Over seven years, the Spider Puppets Lu Qingfeng refined reached fifty in number.
The further east one goes from the Crying Swamp, the denser the Spiritual Energy and the richer the resources.

Although it can't compare to the natural realm of Biyang Lake, it is many times better than the Upper Sun Country.
Lu Qingfeng spread out the Spider Puppets to search for various refining materials. Five years ago, he found materials for an advanced version of the Thousand Mechanism Stone and successfully refined the 'Second Rank Thousand Mechanism Stone', enabling the Puppets' sensing range to reach a terrifying extent of 2.2 million miles.
This was more than enough to explore the Crying Swamp.
On the move, he cultivated and refined Puppets.
Apart from Spider Puppets, Lu Qingfeng successively refined five Xuan Sword Puppets. These are Level 5 Puppets, with combat power comparable to someone in the Foundation Establishment and Essence Cultivation Realm, and they are the strongest puppets he could refine with the materials collected by the Spider Puppets.
Higher-grade puppet materials were insufficient and couldn't be refined.
There were plenty of lower-grade puppet materials, so it was possible to refine them. However, being low grade, their combat capability was limited. No matter how many he made, they wouldn't match a Spirit Void or Core Formation expert.
Given the current situation, the five Xuan Sword Puppets were highly useful.
However, to further explore Crying Swamp and control Upper Sun Country, Lu Qingfeng took some time to refine fifty Type 1 Destroying True Puppets, a hundred Green Butterfly Puppets, and ten Charm Shadow Puppets.
The latter two being Level 4 Puppets, posed little challenge to Lu Qingfeng, now a Fourth Rank Artifact Refiner, and did not take much time.
With Green Butterfly Puppets and Type 1 Destroying True Puppets conducting exploration, the path to Biyang Lake Territory was quickly cleared.
Lu Qingfeng proceeded leisurely.
Using the Giant Turtle Puppet as transportation does slow down the pace.
Yet, after more than seven years, he finally reached the edge of the Biyang Lake Territory.
