The Heavenly Spirit Legion, including the losses from the past two days, had a total death toll of no more than five thousand. It was undoubtedly a victory worth celebrating.

In this war, Zhou Chun once again demonstrated his formidable prowess, single-handedly slaying six Purple Mansion Phase Demon Cultivators, including two from the Purple Mansion Late Stage.

Such outstanding achievements silenced those who had previously made disparaging remarks about his mediocre performance over the past few years.

However, the war that had just ended was only among the low and middle tier Cultivators. The battle amongst those at the Golden Core Stage was still raging in the sky, with no end in sight.

Zhou Chun and the others did not dare to enter such a battlefield. After causing some destruction to the Yinxuan Cave stronghold, they promptly withdrew to safety to rest and recuperate.

However, Zhou Chun did not rest with the main force but quietly, using the Earth Escape Technique of the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer, arrived at a desolate mountain hundreds of miles away.

Inside a cave in the desolate mountain, Zhou Chun retrieved the bodies of the Purple Mansion Phase Demon Cultivators who had died by his hand, then chopped off all their heads and placed them in wooden boxes.

After finishing these tasks, he patted his Storage Pouch around his waist, and a blood-red Jade Box appeared in his hand.

Opening the Jade Box, a blood-red light immediately flew out.

Upon escaping the Jade Box, the blood-red light joyously flew and landed on a corpse’s neck, burrowing into the body through the severed neck.

The true form of the blood-red light could vaguely be seen as a leech-like creature.

What followed was a horrifying scene!

The corpse that the leech-like creature had entered quickly discolored and shriveled, turning into a mummified skeletal corpse in just tens of breaths.

Soon the blood-red light emerged from the belly of the skeletal corpse and continued to pounce on another body.

In just a short quarter of an hour, all six bodies of the Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators were drained of all their Vital Essence Qi.

At that moment, the leech-like creature seemed satiated and voluntarily flew back into the Jade Box in Zhou Chun’s hand, curling up and becoming motionless.

Upon closer inspection, one could see faint golden Spirit Patterns circling the creature’s translucent blood-jade-like body.

And once it curled up, it resembled a round and plump Elixir.

“It should be about enough now! This time it’s been fed the Vital Essence Qi of six Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators, including four robust corpses from the Blood Bone Sect. It must have reached the maturity conditions by now!”

Zhou Chun looked at the creature in the box with a deep gaze and murmured to himself.

Then he closed the Jade Box and put it back into his Storage Pouch.

The creature inside the Jade Box was known as the “Holy Spirit Blood Leech,” an extremely rare and unusual insect.

Its original owner was Ge Changsheng, the “White-Haired Blood Demon,” and after Ge Changsheng’s death, all his belongings fell into Zhou Chun’s hands, making it his spoil of war.

This creature had no combat capabilities, but it was a tremendous opportunity for Core Formation!

Ge Changsheng had a secret recipe that could refine a mature “Holy Spirit Blood Leech” into a “Holy Spirit Blood Pill.” A Cultivator who consumed this pill would not only have their physical state restored to its peak condition but would also continuously produce a stream of blood and essence energy within their body, greatly assisting in Core Formation.

According to Ge Changsheng’s own notes, if he consumed it, by utilizing the unique Demon Technique of the Blood Bone Sect, he could maximize the pill’s effectiveness and directly increase his Core Formation success rate by nearly thirty percent!

Even ordinary Purple Mansion Late Stage Cultivators who took the pill could increase their Core Formation success rate by about twenty percent!

Hence, after acquiring this creature, Ge Changsheng crazily collected corpses of Purple Mansion Phase Cultivators to nourish this insect, hoping to mature it as quickly as possible.

Unfortunately, he fell to Zhou Chun when the insect was about seventy to eighty percent mature, along with the “Holy Spirit Blood Leech” he had painstakingly nurtured, which then became Zhou Chun’s spoil of war!

Once Zhou Chun discovered this “Holy Spirit Blood Leech” among Ge Changsheng’s relics and understood its use, he determinedly decided to fulfill this unfinished wish!

For the aging Ge Changsheng, the “Holy Spirit Blood Pill” was his only hope for a successful Core Formation.

But for the similarly aging Zhou Mingde, was it not also the case!

Zhou Mingde was already aging, his body beginning to deteriorate, which would be a substantial burden during Core Formation.

However, consuming the “Holy Spirit Blood Pill” would not only restore his physical condition to its peak but also add a twenty percent increase to his Core Formation success rate.

Such benefits were perhaps even better than the Five Elements Spirit Fruit!

Therefore, once Zhou Chun learned about the “Holy Spirit Blood Leech’s” effects, he resolved to nurture it to maturity.

Ge Changsheng had already prepared the other auxiliary materials necessary for refining the “Holy Spirit Blood Pill.” Once the “Holy Spirit Blood Leech” was successfully nurtured, just inviting an Alchemy Master to begin Alchemy, it would be very easy to refine the “Holy Spirit Blood Pill.”

With such assistance, coupled with other Spiritual Objects, Zhou Mingde’s Core Formation success rate could reach thirty to forty percent, which would be reassuring enough to give it a try!
