Chapter 14: The Demonic Technique That Will Go Out
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was night soon.
Lu Li, who was lying on the jade bed, opened his eyes. A bright light flashed in his eyes.
[Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique: Level 1 (Progress 2%)]
His Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique improved by 1% after 4 hours of hard work!
In other words, if he cultivated the Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra during the day, his Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique could improve by 6%.
In addition to the automatic cultivation at night, his his Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique could improve by another 3%.
In about 10 days, he would be able to break through to the second level of the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique.
At that time, he would also be able to break through to the second level of the qi refinement realm.
The Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique had a total of 20 levels. The first 10 levels were for the qi refinement realm, and the last 10 levels were for the foundation stage. They corresponded to each other.
“It still feels a bit slow.”
Lu Li frowned slightly.
If this continued, he would probably need 3 years to reach the peak of qi refinement realm.
However, according to the explanation given by Demonic Devil, consuming the powerful spirit blood directly could increase his cultivation speed by a hundred times and increase his realm rapidly.
The fastest way was to reach the peak of the qi refinement realm in less than half a year.
Although his unorthodox cultivation method was good, it could only increase his cultivation speed by 300%, which was only three times of his normal cultivation speed.
Was he really going to borrow spirit stones to buy some powerful spirit blood?
Lu Li pondered for a moment and shook his head.
He was alone and did not have any spirit stones. He only had talent that he could not utilize, and an extraordinary handsome face… Wait a minute.
Suddenly, Lu Li thought of something.
How about finding a sugar mommy?
It could work.
However, after Lu Li thought about it carefully, he thought of the terrifying rumors of the Demonic sect’s rules. Hence, he decided to give up on this idea.
‘Forget about it, I’ll just train harder’
Lu Li calmed his heart and returned to the secret cultivation room in the basement. He sat cross-legged in the Spirit Gathering Formation and started to absorb the qi of heaven and earth. Then, he continued to cultivate his Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique.
The next day when he woke up, a notification immediately rang in his mind:
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique has absorbed the qi of the great sun. Cultivate harder and your progress will increase by 5%.]
Nice!
Lu Li was very satisfied.
With that, he would be able to break through to the second level of the qi refinement realm in about 7 days.
At this moment, the system’s clear voice was still ringing.
[Because you have cultivated another powerful demonic technique, your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique feels excited and cultivates diligently. Your progress has increased by 4%.]
[Your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique, relying on the might of your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique, once again challenged the Indestructible Divine Technique. After suffering another crushing defeat, it felt depressed. Its cultivation has decreased by 8%.]
“In order to take revenge, your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique trained with all its might. Its progress has increased by 10%.]
…
“Why is his Heart-Shattering Palm Technique so silly and cute at the same time?”
After Lu Li heard this, his expression was a little strange.
However, it did not matter anymore. As long as the cultivation progress increased, no matter how many times it went back and forth, it would eventually break through the realm.
Thinking of this, Lu Li no longer paid attention to it. He got up and began his cultivation again.
Just like that, it became his routine.
In the morning, he would absorb the qi of the great sun to cultivate his Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra for an entire day.
When the sun set and the moon rose, he would switch to the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique and devoured the newly cultivated great sun qi.
After that, he would enter the Spirit Gathering Formation to absorb the qi of heaven and earth, and continued to cultivate his Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique.
When he was tired, he would immediately fall asleep.
The next day, when the sun rose, he would continue to cultivate his Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra.
His days were dull and monotonous.
The ninth day.
In the secret cultivation room.
Ding.
[Congratulations, host! You have broken through to the second level of Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique.]
Boom.
As the system notification rang out, a stream of cold air rushed out of his abdomen. It flowed through Lu Li’s limbs and bones.
A layer of invisible barrier was instantly broken through.
Breakthrough!
Second level of the qi refinement realm!
Lu Li opened his eyes, and a trace of joy flashed through his eyes. He immediately opened the system interface.
Host: Lu Li.
Realm: Level 2 qi refinement realm.
Indestructible Divine Technique: Level 3 (Progress 99%).
Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique: Level 2 (Progress 1%).
Heart-Shattering Palm Technique: Level 4 (Progress 75%).
Ghostly Steps Technique: Level 4 (Progress 6%).
Compared to 9 days ago, the progress of the Heart-Shattering Palm Technique had increased by 60%.
It was a good child who was diligent and eager to learn. Although Lu Li did not go to the Demons Cave to exorcise malicious spirits, its progress was automatically increased by 6 to 7% every day.
On the other hand, the Ghostly Steps Technique had only increased his progress by 4% after 9 days.
What a lazy brat.
Lu Li decided that he would definitely change to another way to train his techniques when he had the chance in the future.
He had to continue to cultivate at the moment!
He would need to break through to the fourth level of his Indestructible Divine Technique as soon as possible!
Lu Li’s gaze sank, and he slowly closed his eyes.
Faintly, he seemed to have heard the voice of his Eighth Senior Brother, Bai Jinfei.
However, he did not pay any attention to it.
…
21 days later.
Rumble!
The stone door slowly opened.
In the Spirit Gathering Formation, Lu Li sat cross-legged. He slowly opened his eyes and exhaled as joy appeared in his eyes.
An entire month!
He had finally broken through to the third level of the qi refinement realm!
Host: Lu Li.
Realm: Level 3 qi refinement realm.
Indestructible Divine Technique: Level 3 (Progress 99%).
Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique: Level 3 (Progress 1%).
Heart-Shattering Palm Technique: Level 4 (Progress 99%).
Ghostly Steps Technique: Level 4 (Progress 16%).
The Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique had finally reached the third level!
As the Heart-Shattering Palm Technique had not been able to exorcise any malicious spirits, it was in a depressed mood. It was stuck at the fourth level. However, once it was able to exorcise a malicious spirit, it should be able to break through.
The Ghostly Steps Technique was still as lazy as before.
That was the result of cultivating in seclusion for a month!
Overall, he was satisfied with his result.
Lu Li nodded secretly and began to sense the changes in his body.
In his body, his magic power was also several times stronger.
The magic power of the first level of the qi refinement realm was like a small cup of water. The magic power of the third level of the qi refinement realm felt like a basin of water.
Now, he could unleash 30% of the power of his Ghost-Raising Tower.
Apart from that, the demonic light of the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique was also formed.
“Form!”
Lu Li formed a strange seal with 1 hand. At the same time, he circulated his demonic technique and quickly drew a demonic talisman in front of him.
Whoosh.
A wisp of wind blew past.
At the tip of his index finger, a wisp of thin blood light formed. It flickered and emitted waves of cold air.
The temperature in the surroundings began to drop rapidly.
The formation patterns on the ground formed a thin layer of frost and spread to the surrounding stone walls.
This was the demonic light of his Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique.
In the future, as long as he regularly devoured spiritual blood and nourished the demonic light, he would be able to make the demonic light grow rapidly. It would become formless and colorless, killing people without a trace.
Buzz.
With a trembling sound, the demonic light shattered and disappeared.
Lu Li’s magical power was exhausted, and he dispersed the seal.
The demonic light was powerful, but it consumed too much magical power. In just a short time, his magical power was completely exhausted.
Moreover… In order to break through to the third level of the qi refinement realm as soon as possible, he had paid a price.
In the next moment, Lu Li reached into his pocket and took out 3 green low-grade spirit stones. He could not help but frown.
In order to increase his cultivation level quickly, he had used 19 low-grade spirit stones in the process of cultivating.
He only had 3 low-grade spirit stones left.
He could not even afford a storage ring.
Lu Li was poor.
Fortunately, Lu Li had cultivated to the third level of the qi refinement realm, and he vaguely felt that the barrier of the Indestructible Divine Technique was somewhat broken.
He estimated that when he cultivated to the fifth level of the qi refinement realm, he would be able to break through the Indestructible Divine Technique.
“Fifth level of the qi refinement realm… I’m afraid it’ll take another 3 months?”
Lu Li’s brows furrowed even more tightly.
3 months was not a long time, but if Demonic Devil came out of seclusion during this period and saw that his cultivation progress was so slow, he would probably be dissatisfied. He would be frustrated too.
No one could predict what would happen at that time.
At the thought of this, Lu Li’s expression turned solemn.
“Looks like I have to make another trip to the Scripture Depository.”
He hoped that he could find a solution in the scripture Depository.
Lu Li made up his mind. He closed his eyes and began to absorb spiritual energy to recover his mana.
The next day. Lu Li opened his eyes when the sun rose.
Ding.
In his mind, 3 system notifications sounded consecutively.
[Due to the breakthrough of your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique, your appetite has greatly increased. You have no choice but to go out to find food.]
[Your Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique has devoured ghostly qi in the Demons Cave. Its cultivation has greatly increased. Your progress has increased by 5%.]
[Your Heaven Blood-Devouring Technique has discovered a low-grade spirit ghost in the Demons Cave.]
