The Ascension Journey of a Mortal

In the bustling heart of Saigon, the city dazzles with its duality: opulence for the affluent and desolation for the destitute. Amidst this urban chaos, a compelling saga unfolds, capturing the essence of survival, ambition, and the relentless pursuit of hope. Meet Minh, a streetwise young man with a knack for evading trouble. Despite his unassuming appearance and history of petty theft, Minh harbors a heart full of loyalty and a dream for a better life. His life is a constant chase, not just from the authorities but from his own limitations and circumstances. "Are you good at standing still?" might as well be Minh’s mantra, for his life is anything but stationary. Minh's closest confidant and moral compass is Mr. Ly, an elderly man who, despite his advanced age and destitution, possesses a wealth of wisdom. Mr. Ly has taught Minh how to read and instilled in him the value of knowledge. Their bond is not just of necessity but of mutual respect and unspoken familial ties. Minh often reflects, "I often suspect that you are a person from another world who has come here!" This suspicion is more admiration, highlighting the stark contrast between their lives and Mr. Ly's enigmatic presence. The narrative takes a mystical turn when Minh's encounters introduce him to a realm of fantastical possibilities. The tales Mr. Ly used to tell about different kinds of spiritual bodies and their abilitiessome blessed by gods to control elements like Wind and Lightning start to feel less like stories and more like hidden truths about the world Minh inhabits. This revelation begins when he meets Luu Tich Quan, a formidable woman bound by family pride and mysterious powers. Their interaction is a dance of power and secrecy, each with their own past and future to protect. Minh's struggle intensifies as he grapples with his own latent abilities and the harsh realities of the mystical world he is slowly drawn into. "Your problem is that the bitter sea recovers too quickly, it is difficult to expand, you can only rely on external support to explore," Luu Tich Quan tells Minh, hinting at the untapped potential within him and the monumental challenges he faces. His body, described as the Longevity Body, suggests he is destined for greatness but also curses him with perpetual struggle. The stakes rise as Minh becomes entangled with the powerful Luu family, known for their mastery over ancient techniques and ruthless ambition. The conflict with the Luu family is not just physical but deeply ideological, testing Minh's principles and his resolve to protect those he loves, like little Vi, who represents his hope and future. In a particularly gripping scene, Minh faces off with Luu Toan, a proud member of the Luu family. The tension is palpable, with Luu Toan underestimating Minh's tenacity. "I really don't want to offend you, I'm just forced to," Minh says, encapsulating his reluctant heroism. This moment marks the beginning of Minh’s transformation from a street survivor to a significant player in the unfolding mystical war. The narrative's climax is both a physical and spiritual battle. Minh’s journey through ancient relics, facing mythical beasts, and deciphering cryptic prophecies leads him to a profound understanding of his purpose. The encounters with other powerful entities, like Doc Co Minh and the enigmatic Nether Demon Master, push Minh to his limits, forcing him to harness his true potential. “Don't worry, I can never die,” Minh declares, embodying the resilience that defines his character. This statement is not just bravado but a testament to his undying spirit, foreshadowing his crucial role in the larger cosmic struggle. Can Minh fully realize his potential and face the harsh challenges that lie ahead? Where will this journey take him, and what secrets will be revealed in the battle between good and evil? Stay tuned to uncover the surprises and wonders still hidden within "[The Ascension Journey of a Mortal]".

Chapter 38: Soul Photography

Tran Man Dao will never forget the appearance of the person who appeared in the current situation of King Minh in his dreams. He was a man with an arrogant and liberal temperament who once held her in his arms and chased her to kill the forbidden area of the fairy clan and told her that no matter how small a living being if he tried, he would one day step on it. sky and fly away.

- Man Dao thought the dream scene was fake, but it turned out to be true!

Tears welled up in her eyes, staring at Doc Co Minh in the air.

- Huh? The Man Demon tribe has Nascent Soul Realm appearing again, and it's also Nascent Soul Realm that's not ordinary enough to make us feel dangerous.

In the air, Elder Dinh was evaluating Tran Man Dao. According to him, he saw her with a wandering demon spirit, clearly a demon cultivator of the Man Demon tribe.

- The aura on his body was both ancient and extremely painful and like a young brother born not long ago. What technique are you practicing?

If Elder Dinh knew that Tran Man Dao was a remnant soul belonging to the ancient years, he would no longer be surprised. In the secret realm of U Minh, she was the one who took the greatest advantage, was revived by the Immovable Minh Vuong using supernatural magic power, then also received the inheritance of the Demon Lord, the Belgian Flower entered the body and reincarnated the bones to recreate the world. That year, Tran Man Dao, who was originally a perfect Immortal Thai, now borrowed the power of the Dew Flower to break through the wall of the vase, condensing the path of great reincarnation within the sea of consciousness.

-That purple-shirted girl is incredibly beautiful, it's gonna be delicious to eat…

Doc Co Minh still keeps his eyes closed, never opened, but it's like seeing through everything. He smiled coldly and rushed to attack Tran Man Dao.

- Kid, she's a Nascent Soul monk! Let me stop her, you quickly go to the devouring Man Demon tribe!

Elder Dinh quickly rushed forward to block Doc Co Minh's face, exporting six tall gods to attack Tran Man Dao.

- Minh Vuong, why did people become like that?

Tran Man Dao frowned, feeling a bit wrong. Doc Co Minh's appearance is exactly like a person who practices too much and is possessed by fire, with an evil spirit reaching into the sky. Although he did not open his eyes, his charisma was so cruel that it made people cold.

- Thank you, master!

The corner of Doc Co Minh's mouth slightly raised, starting to turn to the nearest clan, which was a teenager with a medium-class Qi Condensation cultivation base wearing an animal skin coat. When he saw Doc Co Minh approaching, he panicked and shouted loudly:

- Everybody save me, devil…

Before the sentence was over, Doc Co Minh's hand grabbed the top of this poor teenager's head, his flesh and blood was quickly broken down into countless rays of blood entering his hand.

- Too weak…

When the young man had completely disappeared, Doc Co Minh raised his hand in front of him. After seeing a drop of fresh blood still lingering on it, he immediately stuck out his tongue and licked it clean.

The other clansmen who saw this terrible scene all retreated in panic.

- Minh Vuong, have you entered a ghost? Wake up quickly, I'm Man Dao!

Tran Man Dao was wrapped around by Elder Dinh and couldn't run, he could only scream from afar. Although she is a descendant of Lord U Minh Demon, she has only just broken through the Immortal Thai realm, cultivating the early Nascent Soul, and Elder Dinh from thousands of years ago is already a perfect Nascent Soul. Not only that, he is also a seventh-level alchemist, the pharmacist has reached the realm of madness, and can completely compete with any young arrogant person.

Previously, he sealed his cultivation level down to the Qi Condensation and was completely unable to use the Pharmacopoeia to attack, clearly suffering huge losses, today there is nothing to stop it anymore, all his strong strength shows evil. war with Tran Man Dao.

- Lady, looks like you know that guy. If you want the best for him, let him devour the Man Demon tribe, that's the only way to save his life. After the demon's mind is full and then he falls asleep, he will automatically return to normal!

- Are you really Minh Vuong's master in the world? As a master, I let you practice this evil practice, I will conquer you first! U Soul Loi Claw!

Behind Tran Man Dao, a giant ghost emperor with an unknown face appeared, his head with two horns swinging his arms toward Elder Dinh.

- Although your magical powers are powerful, your magic power is not as good as mine! Quang Hoa tribulation!

Countless three-petaled flowers radiated a sparkling light that fell on the illusory demon emperor, causing it to roar in pain, but the demon claw still grabbed and knocked away a deity of Elder Dinh.

While the two were struggling, Doc Co Minh was also starting his crazy massacre. The Man Demon Tribe was very weak, almost no one could bear his attack, and he devoured it into flesh and blood to create a perfect fifth deity embryo.

- Demon, recharge!

A middle-aged man with the cultivation level of the Middle Ages rushed forward to strike a punch into Doc Co Minh's chest, not expecting this person to hide for a long time. Even though he witnessed his clan being murdered, he still patiently waited until he revealed an opening to unleash a fatal blow.

The Man Demon Clan does not practice much religion but mainly practices the body. That middle-aged man's body was extremely solid, his bare hands could even destroy the Nguyen treasure, and he was the patriarch of this generation of the Man Demon Clan.

One blow from him successfully crushed Doc Co Minh's chest bone. If he were another normal monk, he would probably die immediately, but because Doc Co Minh was a Long Life Being, the wound quickly immediately caused the patriarch to change his mind change color.

- Everyone quickly surrounds him and kill him. After Senior Man Dao destroys that villain, he will come back to save us!

This patriarch shouted loudly, and immediately more than twenty clansmen cultivating the late Qi Condensation and the early Chaos Yuan surrounded Doc Co Minh, and in their hands, the one holding the bow and crossbow, the one holding the spear and spear, were all homemade rudimentary weapons, not dharma treasures at all.

- Come all the way here, let me devour a body…

Doc Co Minh flew into the air, behind him appeared the image of giant eyes closing.

- Kill!

The Man Demon Clan screamed, simultaneously using their strongest attack to attack Doc Co Minh. But the strange thing is that Doc Co Minh seemed to be sleeping soundly, completely ignoring them, his eyes were still faithfully closed just like the image of giant eyes behind him.

- Pay for my clan's life!

The other patriarch threw himself into the air, closing in on him again in an attempt to strike the killer. This time he attacked the head to prevent Doc Co Minh from recovering, hoping to kill him.

In the distance, Elder Tran Man Dao and Dinh both stopped, shouting loudly:

- Doc Co Minh wakes up!

- Minh Vuong woke up!

- Kill!

The patriarch's fist was close to Doc Co Minh's head, thinking that the next scene would be his head being punched and blown off by him, his white brain thrown out. But at the most dangerous time, Doc Co Minh suddenly opened his eyes, and the image of giant eyes behind him also had the same movement:

- Soul Photography!

The two words "Soul Photography" echoed in the air, the other patriarch's eyes completely turned white, his fist was beating until the end, and stopped in mid-air. Not only him, but all the clan members surrounding Doc Co Minh had similar protests, their eyes completely lost their irises and became stupid as if they had turned to stone.

- There's nothing worth seeing in Hong Tran, so I'll keep my eyes closed forever, and once I open them, I'll go crazy with sentient beings!

Doc Co Minh's eyes showed a silver light filled with indifference and coldness, like heaven and earth had nothing worth putting in his eyes.

With this shocking expression of Doc Co Minh, Elder Dinh felt more and more skeptical about his own beliefs. How could a newly conceived demon have such terrible magical powers? Completely ruined the souls of twenty people. Especially that pair of glowing silver coins was filled with mourning like they had gone through countless eons, which was confusing.

- I want to devour you…

Doc Co Minh closed his eyes again, raised his right hand to prepare for Blood Devouring.

- Nah!

At this moment, his face became distorted, his black hair shrank at an extremely fast speed, and his skin also returned to its normal color.

- Tam Ma, get out of here!

As soon as Doc Co Minh regained control, he wanted to do his best to seal the demon's mind, but he did not expect that this demon's mind was too strong and actively fought for control of his body.

-I'm your ego! I am Doc Co Minh!

The Demon's mind screamed.

His body now seemed to be divided into two halves, the right half was Doc Co Minh of normal days, and the left half was Doc Co Minh's mind, his hair was long and his skin was white, his left eye was closed.

- His will is so strong, his heart is not yet full but he has regained control!

Elder Dinh was silent. During the past thousands of years, there have been countless geniuses cultivating Hu Than Nerves, but this is the first time someone has woken up before their hearts and minds are full. Even Giang Tran had to always carry the Black Face mask with him, in case of uncertainty, enough to see how strong Doc Co Minh's will was.

- King Minh! What happened to you?

Tran Man Dao looked at him heartbroken, but Elder Dinh still prevented him from getting close.

Doc Co Minh's heart curled on one edge and smiled coldly, reaching out his left hand to grab the petrified patriarch's head.

- Let me devour him, make our cultivation increase!

- Get the hell out of your lady, I don't need this dirty power…

Doc Co Minh used his right hand to block his left hand and shouted angrily.

- Stupid, only devouring all this world can make us religious…

Doc Co Minh's mind pushed his right hand away, then slapped a punch on his right chest.

Doc Co Minh could bear all the thickness of being divided into two, he raised his head and roared loudly, using Bach Bo Hong Tran to run quickly, using all the spiritual energy he wanted to leave here.

- King Minh!

Tran Man Dao tried to get rid of Elder Dinh and chased after Doc Co Minh.

-Hmm, my disciple has his own creation. If you don't let the demon mind devour enough flesh and blood and fall asleep, it will turn around and devour the spirit of its being!

Elder Dinh resolutely chased and attacked to stop Tran Man Dao. Because they were both flying and fighting, their speeds were much slower than Doc Co Minh's, almost losing his shadow several times.

Doc Co Minh ran quickly, his face was fierce and crazy, his body was divided into two different colors, his spiritual energy was also divided into two chaotic attacks inside the Qi Condensation. Even the black stone was hit by spiritual energy, peeling off large pieces.

- Even if Doc Co Minh dies, I don't want to turn into a demon who only knows how to devour flesh and blood! Do you want to devour me? Then you and I will hug each other to death!

He screamed loudly when he saw before his eyes a deep abyss, from which a billowing demon energy and terrifying resentment seemed to have piled up countless years.
