My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration

On the first day, he awakened 3,000 demons.

On the second day, he awakened 3,500 demons.

On the third day, he awakened 4,000 demons.

On the fourth day, he awakened 4,500 demons.

On the fifth day, he awakened 5,000 demons.

On the sixth day, he awakened 1,000 demons.

On the seventh day, he awakened 500 demons.

On the eighth day, he awakened 500 demons.

In the end, Ink Sect used the medicinal pills, artifacts, and other valuable items in the sect's reserves to pay the remaining 7,000 puppets' spiritual qi expenditure.

Jiang Li reluctantly continued to help them.

As a large amount of spiritual qi flowed through, the meridians in Jiang Li's body became stronger and wider.

Of course, if it was an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, they would have to spend a few hours doing this.

If not for the fact that the Quintet Dao Foundation was sufficiently sturdy to withstand torture, he would not have dared to do this.

The level of the Demon Awakening Technique rose as the flow of spiritual qi in his meridians increased. The speed of using the Demon Awakening Technique also began to increase.

Towards the end, he did not slow down. It was because the last few thousand puppets were all at or above the Core Formation realm.

Even if it was just Demon Awakening, it would be ten times more difficult than a Foundation Establishment Wood Demon.

Of course, this did not mean that they could gain thousands of Core Formation cultivators and tens of thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators at once.

This was because it was a basic skill for a cultivator to control more than ten puppets at the same time. Different puppets complemented each other to form an array formation, and everyone knew how to control them.

However, their combat strength did not seem to be outstanding among their peers.

How could a single puppet like this compare to a cultivator of the same level?

These puppets that had been turned into Wood Demons were actually not as powerful as they had imagined.

More importantly, after they were turned into Wood Demons, they had a certain amount of simple intelligence. They did not need cultivators to expend effort to control them. After being specially instilled with memories, they could be used as operators to control this Thousand Sieve City.

This city was their only hope to survive this ordeal.

As for the remaining 1,000 Golden Core puppets, Jiang Li temporarily stopped.

He had already done enough. It was time for Ink Sect to fulfill their promise.

On the ninth day, a layer of empty shell was torn off from Jiang Li's body.

After using the Cocoon Break skill for several days, Jiang Li's skin looked as white as a boiled egg.

Even the beautiful female cultivator who took care of herself every day was inferior to him. If he did not say it, no one would be able to tell that Jiang Li was actually still a body cultivator.

He activated the Armament Hard Skin that had been forgotten for a long time. His skin began to quickly mature. The outer layer of the skin became thicker and tougher. After a dozen breaths, the armament dissipated, and the color and status of his skin finally returned to normal.

He opened the status bar. Recently, the speed at which he converted spiritual qi had gradually increased. Due to the large amount of spiritual qi passing through his body, in a short few days, the Nine Nether Dao Scripture that had just broken through to the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment realm had broken through again in succession, and it had already reached the sixth level.

If he took another step forward, he would be a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and could prepare for Core Formation.

On his interface, a percentage appeared behind the grade of the spiritual root. It had already reached 93% of the high-grade spiritual root.

In a while, when this number reached 100%, perhaps his spiritual root grade would rise to the top-grade.

Speaking of which, Jiang Li was such a genius, yet he actually did not have a top-grade spiritual root. Who in the entire cultivation world of the Great Mountain Region would believe such a thing?

He opened his palm, and there was a red tattoo on both of Jiang Li's palms.

This was not an orthodox beast blood tattoo, so it could not augment him.

However, Jiang Li used a portion of the technique in the Beast Blood Diagram and used the tattoo method to draw the Asura Lord's blood.

These two marks usually did not have any reaction and would not affect Jiang Li at all. However, as long as Jiang Li used his spiritual qi to stimulate them, this Asura Lord's blood would erupt with shocking destructive power.

There was no need to form hand seals or chant incantations. It did not even need to consume too much spiritual qi to instantly unleash a powerful attack. Under the surprise effect, it might be quite effective.

Even Nascent Soul cultivators would be badly crippled if they were tricked by him.

This was one of the trump cards he had prepared. Besides that, Jiang Li walked to a clay statue in the corner of the coffin space.

A corner of the clay statue's head was broken, and a small half of its face was exposed. It was gentle and elegant, and a single glance could make one's heart beat faster.

As if sensing Jiang Li's approach, an eye that was revealed from the clay statue suddenly opened and blinked mischievously.

Then, the clay statue separated to the left and right, and out came a pitiful-looking thin beauty. That thinness naturally referred to her clothes.

"Young Master, I haven't seen you in a long time. My clothes are gradually becoming loose and I can't forget about you. I've embarrassed myself in front of you."

Qin Shuman bowed to Jiang Li. The originally thin veil fell from her shoulders, revealing a large area of cold and white smooth skin.

Her expression was sorrowful and filled with resentment. Jiang Li even suspected if he really owed her a favor.

When she stood up, this beautiful female ghost suddenly fell and pounced onto Jiang Li. After that, she raised her head and looked at him with watery eyes.

"In this period of time, have you thought of me? As long as you still miss me, I will have no regrets even if I have to wait in this statue for a hundred years."

The corners of Jiang Li's mouth twitched, and he was slightly helpless.

Cultivators with good talent in illusion techniques all had a common problem: they loved to perform. They were all actors who could be nominated for the Academy Awards.

Back then, when Qin Shuman was still in the Seven Roads Ghost City, she met a mortal and wanted to act out a robbery scene.

According to Jiang Li's later understanding, she had thought of no less than a hundred scripts in the past few years. After she entered the coffin, she often used the Soul Burial Ghost Soldiers as extras to put on various great performances of love, hate, and betrayal.

She even did it in the name of training soldiers.

After cultivating the Shu Mountain's secret technique, the Illusory Art Life Record, she was even more brazen.

The action of lying on Jiang Li's body and the look in her eyes… Even with Jiang Li's astonishing composure, he could not help but swallow his saliva.

"Cough cough, of course I did. Hurry up and get up."

Jiang Li stretched out his hand to help the other party up. When his hands came into contact with the other party's icy cold skin, he suddenly recalled that he still had the status of having the Anti-Demon Golden Skin on his body.

To ghosts, he was basically no different from lava.

Just as he was about to let go, he realized that Qin Shuman, who was touching his hands, did not have any reaction.

On a closer look, he discovered that there was a thin layer of Yin qi attached to Qin Shuman's skin, isolating the Buddhist power of the Anti-Demon Golden Skin.

One had to know that the Anti-Demon Golden Skin on Jiang Li's body was augmented by the Benevolent Travel Temple's golden light, so its might was not weak.

To be able to easily withstand such a level of Buddhist power, it was completely sufficient to prove that the other party's Yin qi was superior.
