My Informative Cultivation Life

"You're going to the Training Ground of the Heavenly Demons for trials?"

Inside the Hall of the Heavenly Demons, suspended high in the sky, a steward elder looked Yang Ji up and down and cautioned him solemnly, "The Training Ground of the Heavenly Demons is located in the outer domain starry skies, filled with untold dangers, and you may encounter Heavenly Demons at any time. You must not venture too deeply, understand?"

"Disciple understands!" Yang Ji nodded.

"Hmm! Go in then." The steward elder handed back the identity Talisman Command, and then pointed to the empty space behind the hall. There was a spiritual power vortex a thousand zhang in diameter, like the eye of the starry skies, slowly rotating.

Yang Ji glanced at it and flew straight in.

He was enveloped by a transmission force, and within a mere three breaths, he was expelled by a force.

Upon landing again and looking up, the sky was dusky, and the vast aura of the starry skies hit him, causing Yang Ji's mind to sway.

Looking at the desolate and silent wind-eroded land beneath his feet, feeling the icy currents between his fingers, and smelling the ancient scent not belonging to the Taichu World.

Yang Ji knew he had arrived at the outer domain starry skies, and what he stood upon was indeed a desolate and pockmarked star.

He extended his vision to its limit, gazing far into the starry skies, where myriad stars were densely packed and spread out before his eyes like grains of sand. Arrayed in the vast starry sky, they shone and twinkled, indicating vitality.

"The boundless starry sky, billions of stars, with strange and fantastical vistas, even Immortal Kings are said to have been unable to find its end. Sooner or later, I will go in to witness the beauty of the starry skies and explore the unknown mysteries," Yang Ji's gaze probed far into the distance, as if wanting to pierce through the entire starry sky.

"Master, take a look back at these people sitting quietly beside the passageway; are they so afraid of the Heavenly Demons?" Buddha Child said somewhat speechlessly.

Yang Ji turned his head and saw many disciples, from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Divinity Transformation Realm, sitting cross-legged beside the colossal transmission passageway a thousand zhang away.

He glanced at them and said slowly, "The Heavenly Demons are ferocious, having the courage to come to this training ground is already a transformation and growth of the mind. Placing themselves amid danger, their spirits are actually being tempered, making them much stronger than those disciples who dare not come to the Training Ground of the Heavenly Demons."

"That's true, if I didn't have the Buddha-Demon Scripture to protect my mind, I wouldn't dare to face the Heavenly Demons directly either, and perhaps I would be just as cautious in adapting to fear and slowly changing.

After all, once a Heart Demon is induced, it's like a poison nail driven into the mind; if it can't be removed, the spirit will only become weaker and weaker, and progress in cultivation thereafter would be extremely difficult," Buddha Child glanced at those sitting disciples and continued.

"Let's go, let's go slay some demons!" Yang Ji took a step forward, his heart secretly filled with excitement and anticipation.

Buddha Child, sensing Yang Ji's emotions, couldn't help but lick his lips and chuckled wickedly, "This time I'm going to go on a killing spree; little demons, come into my mouth."

"Conceal your aura, the weaker we appear, the more the Heavenly Demons like it," Yang Ji said.

"Heh heh, they say the Heavenly Demons are cunning, let's play a dark hand too. I'll intentionally expose a flaw in my spirit to trap the damn things," Buddha Child sneered and immediately followed Yang Ji, flying forward.

However, after flying more than ten li, they saw no sign of any Heavenly Demon.

Buddha Child couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't it said that the Training Ground of the Heavenly Demons is full of Heavenly Demons? Why haven't we seen even one?"

"This star was created from tens of thousands of stars kneaded together by a Tribulation Immortal of our sect. It's huge and comparable to a boundless continent, so it's not easy to encounter Heavenly Demons," Yang Ji said.

His words shifted as he continued, "Buddha Child, the Heavenly Demons like devouring flesh and blood, and you, being originally Divine Medicine, are especially nourishing. Release a hint of medicinal fragrance, and the Heavenly Demons will likely take the bait quickly."

"Alright!" Buddha Child nodded upon hearing this, released a medicinal scent, and the two cautiously flew forward dozens of li.

In the next moment, a figure flashed and suddenly flew over in a panic from afar, looking exactly like Yang Ji.

"Master, what's happened?" Buddha Child hurriedly greeted him.

"Buddha Child, quick, run! There's a Heavenly Demon coming from ahead," Yang Ji shouted in alarm.

"Is that so?" As he approached, a wily smile emerged on Buddha Child's face, and he scoffed, "A mere demon daring to transform into my master's likeness to deceive me; my master is handsome and outstanding, a dragon and phoenix among people. He would never panic like this in a situation. This petty demon doesn't capture half the essence of him; die!"

Buddha Child suddenly produced a Demon Claw and harshly crushed Yang Ji's head.

"Ah, impossible, how could you, a mere Qi Refining Cultivator, see through my illusion? This can't be..." The Heavenly Demon, in a panic, tried to speak, but Buddha Child morphed into a giant demon mouth and gulped him down with one swift motion.

"Heh heh, that Heavenly Demon was too stupid," Buddha Child licked his lips, still wanting more.

"You seemed rather pleased with yourself when you grabbed my head just now," Yang Ji walked over and looked at Buddha Child askance.

Upon hearing this, Buddha Child immediately offered a goofy smile, "Heh heh, master, it's a misunderstanding; wasn't that a Heavenly Demon disguised as you? I could have let it go if it had simply taken your form, but it didn't capture your majestic spirit at all; it was practically an insult to you. I absolutely couldn't stand that, so I had to give it a taste of its own medicine to honor you."

Yang Ji glanced at him and said indifferently, "The only information in the mind flaw you released was about me; if the Heavenly Demon didn't transform into me, should it have become you instead?"

"Heh heh, master, you are the only person I'm close to, so how could those Heavenly Demons deceive me if not by transforming into you?" Buddha Child sneered wickedly.
