Chapter 115: Chapter 114: First Stage of the Devouring Demon Technique: Great Success! Level 1 Demon Qi Realm
“Baji Heaven-Striking Fist!”
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Xu Qing let out a soft cry. He was already practicing the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist in the courtyard, his speed incredibly fast, reaching an unbelievable level.
Half a minute.
Just thirty seconds.
Xu Qing had already completed one full routine of the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist.
[Experience +1]
“This…”
Xu Qing’s expression was still one of shock, but a smile spread across his face. ’This fast? I can run through the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist once in just half a minute? Excellent, excellent.’
…
[Experience +1]
…
[Experience +1]
…
And so, Xu Qing threw himself into it, beginning to practice the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist.
…
[Dragon Elephant Force LV1: 20/100 (…)]
…
[Dragon Elephant Fundamental Skill LV1: 0/400 (…)]
…
[Baji Heaven-Striking Fist LV6: 300/4000 (…)]
…
[Life-taking Thirteen Swords LV8: 500/3840 (…)]
…
[Blood Curse Beast Taming Technique LV9: 400/2880 (…)]
…
[Daoist Skill—Profound Soldier Talisman Technique LV1: 1/1000 (…)]
…
[Devouring Demon Technique First Layer LV1: 0/500 (…)]
…
Currently, these were the seven Martial Arts and Fundamental Skills displayed in the Encyclopedia of All Things. Of course, there had been other Martial Arts before, but they had all been integrated into the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist, which had become a special Martial Art that fused both a Fundamental Skill and other Martial Arts.
Time flew by.
In the days that followed,
Xu Qing threw himself completely into his Cultivation. He never left the courtyard, spending every day practicing the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist while also teaching Dian Anhua the Dragon Elephant Force.
In a single day,
Xu Qing practiced the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist for sixteen hours, leaving only eight hours for eating, resting, and briefly instructing Dian Anhua.
By the end of such a day, Xu Qing had practiced the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist a total of 1,920 times, allowing it to gain a full 1,920 Experience Points.
「The next morning.」
Xu Qing ate a piece of Level 4 Spirit Food Blood Dragon Meat, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit reaching their absolute peak. He began practicing the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist again, but before he could complete a few routines…
“Master! Master!”
Dian Anhua ran over in a panic.
“What is it?”
Xu Qing stopped.
“Senior Brother! It’s Senior Brother!”
Dian Anhua shouted.
“Yu Hu?”
Xu Qing frowned. “What’s wrong?”
“I… I don’t know either. You have to go see him!”
Dian Anhua’s voice was filled with anxiety.
“Hn.”
Xu Qing nodded. He stopped his training and quickly walked into the house, where he saw Yu Hu lying on the bed, an expression of extreme agony on his face.
’This…’
Furthermore, on the right side of Yu Hu’s neck, the Nine Yin Spell had reappeared. It manifested as a bright red Talisman that was beginning to spread.
Now, a series of crimson Talismans covered the right side of his neck, his right shoulder, and part of his arm. His body was also emitting waves of a sinister aura.
It was all very abnormal.
Xu Qing took a deep breath. “An Hua, go outside for now.”
“Yes.”
Dian Anhua nodded respectfully and left the room.
“Devouring Demon Technique!”
BOOM!
With a single thought, Xu Qing entered the state. His eyes faintly turned completely black, and his body began to emit wisps of Demon Nature.
“Demon Eyes!”
Xu Qing cried out softly, activating a Martial Art recorded in the Devouring Demon Technique. All his Demon Nature flooded into his eyes, turning them pitch-black.
In this state, Xu Qing could see Yu Hu’s other condition. He saw that deep within Yu Hu’s mind, a mass of consciousness filled with a sinister aura was entrenched, battling with Yu Hu’s own consciousness. The two were locked in a stalemate.
However, Elder Qingyun was, after all, a powerful Evil Cultivator. Even though it was only his remnant consciousness, it was still extremely domineering and filled with a corrupting evil.
So, after holding on for so many days, Yu Hu was slowly beginning to lose ground.
’This is trouble.’
Xu Qing took a deep breath. He retracted his Demon Eyes, and his eyes returned to normal as the aura of Demon Nature around him vanished. ’I was planning to cultivate the Baji Heaven-Striking Fist and slowly increase my strength, but this won’t work. Yu Hu’s consciousness probably can’t defeat Elder Qingyun’s remnant consciousness.’
’In that case,’
’I have to level up the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer first. Only when the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer reaches Great Success can I help Yu Hu destroy Elder Qingyun’s final remnant consciousness.’
’Or perhaps…’
’I could cultivate a special Magic Gate.’
Thinking this, Xu Qing decided to prioritize leveling up the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer. There was no real need to search for a special Magic Gate, especially since he wasn’t even sure he could find one.
Starting today,
Xu Qing began to practice the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer. Of course, unlike other Martial Arts and Fundamental Skills, the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer required no movement and had very few physical actions.
It only required seated meditation.
This Cultivation method was somewhat similar to the Immortal Path and the Dao Path, as those two paths also involved seated meditation, circulating energy, and comprehending the heavens and the earth.
“An Hua.”
Xu Qing called out, “Come in.”
“Master.”
Dian Anhua entered the room.
“You continue to watch over your senior brother. I am going to find a solution.”
Xu Qing continued, “For the time being, I will be in my room in seated Cultivation. From now on, do not enter my room unless it is for something extremely important. Even if it is important, you must knock first.”
“Is that clear?”
“Yes, Master.”
Dian Anhua nodded respectfully. “This disciple understands.”
“Good.”
Xu Qing nodded.
「The scene shifts.」
「In the bedroom.」
Xu Qing exhaled slowly.
He sat cross-legged on his bed with his eyes closed, slowly entering a meditative state. The technique of the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer began to circulate as he started his seated Cultivation, meditating on his Demon Nature.
Time passed.
After one minute,
[Experience +1]
In just one minute, Xu Qing had completed a full cycle of meditation for the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer, gaining one Experience Point.
’Not bad.’
Xu Qing nodded.
He continued his seated Cultivation Meditation.
…
[Experience +1]
…
[Experience +1]
…
The minutes ticked by.
The Experience Points for the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer increased rapidly.
Moreover, Xu Qing discovered something: cultivating the Devouring Demon Technique was different from cultivating the Martial Path. Its seated meditation could replace sleep and rest. This meant that as long as he didn’t grow weary of it, Xu Qing could cultivate twenty-four hours a day.
Of course, this was only possible because Xu Qing had reached the Immortal stage of the Martial Path. His spirit had been strengthened, allowing it to recover quickly, which enabled him to practice Cultivation Meditation in this way.
If it were anyone else, they would get a splitting headache after just three hours of meditation in a day. Someone with better Talent might last four, five, or even six or seven hours.
But someone like Xu Qing, who had already reached the Immortal stage on the Martial Path and was now cultivating a Demon Technique through meditation, possessed a powerful spirit and astonishing recovery. He could meditate without interruption, even using it as a substitute for rest.
Of course,
Xu Qing still had to eat a pound of Level 4 Spiritual Food every day.
In any case,
By cultivating for nearly twenty-four hours a day, the Experience Points for his Devouring Demon Technique increased so quickly it was almost beyond Xu Qing’s expectations.
In a full day,
he could gain over 1,400 Experience Points.
’Excellent, excellent.’
Xu Qing was overjoyed.
And so it went.
「Seven days later.」
Xu Qing took a deep breath. He had been continuously cultivating the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer for a whole week, spending every day in seated Cultivation Meditation.
Naturally, his gains were immense.
[Devouring Demon Technique First Layer LV1: 9800/500 (Upgradeable!)]
“Good.”
Xu Qing nodded. ’Upgrade the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer!’
It was important to remember that when Xu Qing had successfully recorded the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer, he had already learned it, receiving the Ultimate Demon Path Introduction and reaching the ’First Step of the Demon Path: First-level Demonic Realm’.
BUZZ! BUZZ!
The Encyclopedia of All Things flashed with a fluorescent light.
In an instant,
a roar filled Xu Qing’s mind. His consciousness was pulled into a mysterious space where he continuously meditated and cultivated the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer.
Soon,
his Demon Technique achieved a breakthrough.
BOOM!
Xu Qing’s body trembled. The Demon Nature within him grew stronger, and his entire temperament subtly changed, as if he were transforming into a peerless Demon.
At the same time, Xu Qing’s Demon Path Cultivation reached the Second Level of Demon Realm.
[Upgrade Successful!]
[Devouring Demon Technique First Layer LV2: 9300/1000 (Upgradeable!)]
“Good!”
Xu Qing nodded. ’Continue upgrading the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer!’
…
[Upgrade Successful!]
[Devouring Demon Technique First Layer LV3: 8300/2000 (Upgradeable!)]
…
[Upgrade Successful!]
[Devouring Demon Technique First Layer LV4: 6300/4000 (Upgradeable!)]
…
[Upgrade Successful!]
[Devouring Demon Technique First Layer LV5: 2300/8000 (Not Upgradeable!)]
…
In a short time,
Xu Qing continuously upgraded the Devouring Demon Technique to LV5. After upgrading the First Layer to LV3, he reached the Third-level Demon Realm, and upon reaching LV4, he attained the Fourth-level Demon Realm.
Finally,
when the Devouring Demon Technique First Layer was upgraded to LV5,
BOOM!
Demonic images appeared before Xu Qing’s eyes. His irises turned pitch-black, and a vertical, pitch-black demonic marking appeared on his brow.
Most importantly,
after his Demon Nature had accumulated to an extreme point, it underwent a metamorphosis. An inky-black Demonic Qi appeared on Xu Qing’s body.
The Demonic Qi was as fine as strands of hair, yet it was tangible. It swirled around Xu Qing, flowing over every part of his body.
This was a type of power completely different from Power and Gang Qi.
To be more precise,
it was more akin to a form of Spiritual Energy. Born from the Demon Nature deep within a living being’s soul, it had transformed into true Demonic Qi.
From this point on,
Xu Qing’s Devouring Demon Technique First Layer could be considered to have reached Great Success.
At the same time, Xu Qing’s Demon Path Cultivation had reached the ’Second Step of the First Realm: Level 1 Demon Qi Realm’.
