"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Yun Hua, for protecting me." Jin You couldn’t understand why this human cultivator would want to help her; she had nothing worth plotting for.
"Fellow Daoist Jin You, the demon blood and demon blood within you are clashing, causing chaos in your spiritual power flow. Have you thought about resolving it?"
"I rely on taking Xuanyin Ice Soul Pills to suppress it," Jin You replied.
"Relying on elixirs for suppression is not a long-term solution," Si Lingle said. "You could try taking the Blood Sea Golden Pill and then cultivating the Blood Spirit Mixed Element Technique."
"The Blood Spirit Mixed Element Technique specializes in transforming essence and blood, converting the power of the Demon Clan’s bloodline into controllable spiritual power, reducing its antagonism with demon blood."
"You can also assist your cultivation with the Yuyuan Spirit Formulas, using a contract with a demon beast essence soul to balance the violent energy in the demon blood, requiring cultivation with the essence blood of a demon beast of the same level."
"The Infinite Nourishing Yuan Technique, a foundational and stabilizing cultivation technique, can enhance the spirit vein’s recovery ability, slowing down the collapse of meridians during spiritual power turmoil, requiring long-term cultivation."
"While practicing these cultivation techniques, immerse yourself in medicinal baths and body refinement, soaking with spirit blood and high-level spiritual plants (such as Purple Ganoderma, Red Ginseng) to strengthen the physical body and increase tolerance to bloodline conflict, needing to pair with body refining techniques for accelerated effects."
"You can keep a Jiangyun Pill on hand; its aggressive properties can stabilize the meridians, alleviating tears caused by chaotic spiritual power."
Jin You stared at Si Lingle, utterly incredulous, and after a while of being stunned, she finally spoke, "Demon-Demon Mixed Blood, are there really so many ways to harmonize and stabilize it?"
"Of course," Si Lingle nodded.
These cultivation techniques Si Lingle mentioned were all those she had seen in future generations, gained when she defeated the Demon Clan.
As for the elixirs, she also had them, also obtained from the Demon Clan she had defeated.
"Let’s find a safe place, and I will give you these cultivation techniques and prepare a medicinal bath for body refinement."
Jin You looked intently at Si Lingle, "Why are you so good to me?!! Do you have any ulterior motives?"
Si Lingle smiled slightly, "You might not believe it, but you resemble my adoptive mother, which is why I saved you."
Jin You hadn’t thought it was for this reason. Looking at Si Lingle’s expression, it didn’t seem like she was lying.
"Let’s go."
Jin You got up, and the two of them flew away.
Hours later, they found a suitable place, and Si Lingle used a spell to open up a cave abode.
The cave abode had five rooms: one room each for her and Jin You, and additional rooms for alchemy, artifact refining, and body refinement.
After tidying up and setting things in place, Si Lingle gave Jin You the cultivation techniques and elixirs, instructing her to start cultivating.
After cultivation, she would then pair it with medicinal baths for body refinement.
Jin You went into seclusion to cultivate; she was very intelligent and mastered these cultivation techniques within ten days.
Afterwards, she began pairing them with medicinal baths for body refinement.
The body refining technique was one that Si Lingle had cultivated at Xuanwu Manor, ensuring it wouldn’t make the physique bulky.
As such, three years passed, and the demon blood and demon blood within Jin You stabilized and balanced, allowing her cultivation to break through to the late-stage Soul Emergence.
Si Lingle spent the first year on alchemy and artifact refining, and only in the latter two years did she go into seclusion, making some advancements in her cultivation.
"Yun Hua, I want to return to the Demon Realm."
"I’ll accompany you, and take the opportunity to train in the Demon Realm." She hadn’t visited the Demon Realm yet to see it.
"Okay." Jin You was actually reluctant to part with Si Lingle.
For hundreds of years, Si Lingle was her first friend.
Moreover, she knew that Si Lingle came from the future, and one day would leave this world.
After preparing a bit, the two headed to the Demon Realm.

Si Lingle and Jin You stood at the edge of a cliff, beneath their feet surging black and purple mist like the throat of a giant beast swallowing all light. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
At the entrance of the Demon Realm stood a massive gate made of bones and Xuan Iron, its lintel covered in writhing blood curse runes, emitting a suffocatingly malevolent aura.
Between the runes, twisted faces faintly appeared, silently screaming.
Jin You clutched the Burning Cloud Fan in her hand, the jade marrow in the fan bones glimmering faintly in response to the demonic qi, whispering, "This barrier... is even more bizarre than the rumors."
Si Lingle’s expression was as cold as frost, the sword scabbard quivered, the Exorcism Talisman transformed into golden light enveloping her body: "Follow me, don’t step wrongly. This place’s grievances overlap with time and space; one wrong move and you could be sucked into an illusion realm."
Before she finished speaking, a harsh sound of chains scraping emanated from the thick fog, as if something invisible was watching their movements.
Si Lingle slashed open a dark purple array with her sword tip, and the two of them leapt into it.
In an instant, the surrounding time and space twisted into kaleidoscopic fragments—a blood-red moon hung on the pitch-black sky, purple clouds swirling like a vortex, stars dyed dark red like congealed demon blood.
The ground beneath their feet alternated between being hard as black ice and soft like rotted flesh, each step lifting up a wind sweet with blood and mixed with the scent of the Other Shore Flower and sulfur.
Jin You stumbled, almost touching a cluster of Red-eyed Demon Sunflowers growing by the roadside, the buds snapped open, revealing petal-teeth and bloodshot eyes.
"Be careful! These magic plants feed on living souls..." Before Jin You could finish, Si Lingle had already severed the flower’s stem with a sword stroke, the viscous black blood evaporating into the air consumed by the demonic qi.
After passing through the barrier’s core, their vision suddenly broadened. In the distance, mountains intertwined like monstrous spines, and at their feet, a river of glass-like blood meandered filled not with liquid but countless tiny red crystals, tinkling like wind chimes as they collided.
On both sides of the river stood nearly a hundred Netherworld Stele Forests, the ghostly faces carved on the blue stone steles changing expressions with light and shadow, sometimes mocking, sometimes weeping.
Overhead, a gray-feathered, golden-eyed eagle flew by, its wingspan reaching ten zhang, its screech as thunderous as a roar, causing Jin You’s eardrums to ache.
Jin You quickly manipulated the formula, blending their aura with the demonic qi: "The creatures of the Demon Realm are extremely sensitive to outsiders, especially to the spiritual energy on you..." Before she could finish speaking, there was a muffled sound from the depths of the wilderness—the ground burst open.
A giant skeletal vine wrapped in rotting flesh broke through, its end was a woman’s face, singing an enchanting song.
