Carl then calmed himself down as he let out a breath, until he finally sighed as he started thinking for some plans :

' It's weird how this body's past holder was haunted by everyone although he didn't do much , but only had Devilish charms , like what's this bullshit of ' when you have devilish charms then you're a fiend cultivator?'

*Sigh* , the heaven's schemes are truly too much , just to hinder my life as much as possible..'

-

Fiend cultivators are cultivators who use blood and flesh of others in order to grow stronger - though different from Carl as they still followed heaven's way of cultivation , while he had to follow too many cultivation realms due to his special situation .

Fiend cultivators have a massive drawback , and that is the hardness of controlling one's emotions , though Carl has been through all of them , and he didn't have drawback even in his past life , but unbeknownst to Carl , his devilish death qi that originated from his soul finally modified this body's structure , which was one of the reasons his current body could support his bloodline..

-

His current form had short hair as he was still 12 , and always cut his hair short , as it annoyed the past holder of the body being held by long hair , he also had red eyes , which was also the reason why they seemed to call him devilish as whoever had eyes was a fiend cultivator , since they cultivated on blood , their eyes turn red too.

-

He looked through his memories and finally knew that the previous body holder died out of starving , as he was being constantly haunted and didn't have a place where he could go off to in case he needed to eat , or fullfil other mortal needs.

As for the blood that he'd been on - it was the previous body's last attempt at not dying for food , as it started drinking the blood of a pig that it found on its way..

-

After he was done thinking , he started to search for a chicken around to get it's feathers - as he needed a lot of them in order to write inscriptions in the stones to start the blood sacrificial array.

He finally found one that was too big of a chicken , but still looked to be in the mortal realm , he sighed helplessly as he knew that the heavens noticed his change , thus making their best way to suppress Carl in order to give up..

Carl then started thinking it for a while , coming up with a plan on his head , until a few minutes later , he started digging around the chicken a few meters away from it , making 6 meters deep and 2 meters wide circular way , but after he tried to dig any further down he found there being metal that he couldn't dig through..

He frowned as this seemed too much of a coincidence , so he looked at the sky with burning eyes , until he stopped digging down and continue digging the dirt that had been in between..

-

Although his body was weak , his soul was strong , which unbeknownst to him , was nourishing his body while getting energy from around subconsciously , without him trying , as it was only in a special state , that required the soul of the previous body and the current one to fuse , and then after that the final soul would reside in the body..

His body had enough strength to kill the chicken , but it was still unknown to him , as he was being as careful as possible to survive in this world where danger was everywhere..

It was also still unknown to heavens that he cultivated in a way that was different to it , although it had notice of those who cultivated on its system , it didn't pay much attention to Carl as it only suppressed him.. But that didn't mean it wouldn't make his heavenly tribulations stronger than others..

-

He continued digging around the chicken while he kept 5 pillars of dirt to support the higher layer from falling , as he didn't want it to notice him yet..

He then started making a trap - which was a few stones along with some of his blood that were in a circle , right below the chicken , and then he added a huge barrel that was capable of storing the blood and flesh of the chicken , and finally stopped..

He then began to dig above the chicken , which was quite hard as the chicken was moving , not just idle in one place..

He started using a bit of spiritual sense to glance at it, and then finally found the next spot it was going to land on it , he moved everything that he'd prepared below the spot , and then dug straight below it..

After that , the chicken was startled as it didn't think it'd be killed today... But it had no choice due to the trap Carl set , and then it directly fell as it's blood was seperated from its flesh , and then dropped to the barrel , which was all configured by the array..

-

The array Carl made used a bit of his spiritual energy , about 20% , but as his soul was as strong as an emperor level , though he could only use it in situations like these , but that would naturally have a drawback on him as his soul would be weakened for a while , absorbing the Qi from the air , which unbeknownst to Carl, his soul's energy too was slowly changing from Qi to devilish death qi..

-

After the chicken fell to the barrel , Carl finally seperated the feathers from the flesh , and then kept about 2% of the flesh to use on fire to eat , and the rest was left for him to start absorbing in order to cultivate his strength..

His cultivation started rising in the realms, as it was above his current strength ( His current strength was able to kill the chicken because he could fight those at a higher realm than him , though that didn't mean his realm was the same as the chicken ) , as the chicken was peak mortal realm but he was just early stage , which isn't mortal realm but Devilish death qi condensation , he started rising slowly but surely...

After he finished , he found himself in the middle stage as the chicken had too much energy..

Since the devilish death qi condensation realm required killing 1,000 normal mortals that barely were early level in strength and absorbing their flesh and blood , after absorbing a peak level mortal chicken , it replaced 500 normal mortals , which showed it's strength..

Carl sighed as he glanced back at his strength , and then he proceeded to take a nap...
