“Come in.”
Demonic Devil’s voice rang out.
“Yes.”
Lu Li cupped his hands and turned around to enter the cave again.
He did not even look at the corpse on the ground.
“Lu Li, excellent! You’re talented and ruthless. More importantly, this foresight of yours allowed you to poison him first, making you undefeatable! I wasn’t as cunning as you back then!”
On the white bone chair, Demonic Devil did not hesitate to praise him.
“Thank you for your compliments.”
Lu Li cupped his hands and replied.
“You don’t have to be humble.”
At this moment, Demonic Devil’s gaze turned cold. He spoke in a hoarse voice, “Your strong and powerful qi, as well as your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique and the Ghostly Steps Technique that you have cultivated to the fourth level. It all took less than a month! Even I feel inferior to you in terms of talent! I would like to ask you how do you cultivate your techniques?”
Here it came!
Lu Li’s heart shook.
He knew that his cultivation method might be seen through, so he did not panic. He cupped his hands and answered, “Master, my flesh is strong because I cultivate a technique called the Vajra Technique. This technique was given to me by an elder in the Scripture Depository. I didn’t expect that my cultivation of the Vajra Technique would be so fast.”
As he spoke, he took out two jade slips and held them in his hands.
“Oh? The Vajra Technique?”
Demonic Devil exclaimed in surprise.
Then, he raised his hand, and a stream of black smoke flew out and swept away the jade slip.
“It really is the Vajra Technique! There’s actually the Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra of the Flying Temple? Which elder gave you this jade slip?”
Demonic Devil held the jade slips and asked in a deep voice.
“It’s the white-haired elder with the skull necklace. I didn’t expect that I could cultivate these Buddhist techniques so quickly.”
Lu Li answered honestly.
As soon as he said this, a strange look flashed across Demonic Devil’s eyes.
Whoosh.
He flung his robe, and a ball of golden light flew out and landed in front of Lu Li, revealing his true appearance.
It was a purple-gold bowl.
In the next moment, this purple-gold bowl emitted pure Buddhist light and shone on Lu Li’s body.
Lu Li was shocked.
However, he did not react at all and allowed the Buddhist light to shine on him.
“Humph, I thought you were that Reincarnation of Buddha. I was happy for nothing.” Demonic Devil waved his hand and took back the purple-gold bowl.
Reincarnation of Buddha?
Lu Li’s heart inexplicably thumped when he heard these words.
“Okay.”
At this moment, Demonic Devil flung his hand and threw the jade slips back. “Since that elder gave it to you, keep it well.”
“Yes.”
Lu Li caught the jade slips and kept it in his pocket.
“You have a reserved personality, and you don’t show your power, which doesn’t quite fit my personality. However, you have good talent, cunning strategy, and a handsome look. You are much more pleasing to the eye than that ugly Xiao Yan. I’ll take you as my true disciple for now. From now on, you are my true disciple. You should keep this token. When you go to the peak of the mountain, you can choose a cave to live in.”
Then, Demonic Devil threw another jade pendant to him.
It was a square black jade pendant.
“Thank you, Master!”
When Lu Li heard this, he immediately caught the jade pendant and cupped his hands to greet Demonic Devil.
His face revealed an appropriate amount of joy, but his heart was still calm, and there was even a trace of fear in his heart.
It did not seem like a good thing to be the true disciple of such a malicious and bloodthirsty devil.
Who knew that he might be killed or possessed at any time.
“Since you’ve become my true disciple, then I should teach you my true technique! Here are 3 techniques that can help you cultivate to the peak of the foundation stage. Pick 1 yourself.”
Demonic Devil flicked his finger and shot out 3 bloody lights.
Whoosh.
The 3 bloody lights stopped in front of Lu Li and turned into 3 bloody jade slips.
“Please let me take a look.”
Lu Li cupped his hands.
Then, he reached out his hand and took out a red jade slip. He stuck it on his head and began to examine it with his spiritual sense.
After a short while, he finished reading all 3 jade slips, and his expression darkened.
The 3 cultivation techniques were the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique, the Seven Kills Demonic Path Technique, and the Ghost Controlling Art.
They were all demonic techniques.
The Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique would need him to consume blood. After training, he would be able to devour everything.
The Seven Kills Demonic Path Technique used killing intent and condensed the seven kills demonic qi, which could killing everything.
The Ghost Controlling Art would need vital ghostly qi to cultivate. Then, he would be able to control any ghosts.
As expected of the Demonic sect.
These 3 demonic techniques were sinister and ruthless. They either needed to consume blood or ghostly qi.
Lu Li was caught in a dilemma.
Soon, he ruled out the Ghost Controlling Art.
The reason was simple.
He was not Ning Caichen. He could not play with the undead.
It was not suitable for him to play with ghosts.
In addition, when ghostly qi entered his body, it should also cause the cultivation of the Vajra Technique to regress.
The Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique and the Seven Kills Demonic Path Technique…
He could only choose the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique!
The Seven Kills Demonic Path Technique had a murderous nature. He would kill without mercy if he trained it, and it was very easy for him to become monsters who only knew how to kill!
On the other hand, the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique did not specify what kind of blood he needed to consume.
He would drink some animal blood to strengthen his body, and it was still acceptable to him.
He heard that there were dragons on the overseas islands!
At that time, he might even be able to drink dragon blood!
“Have you chosen?”
At this moment, Demonic Devil asked.
“I have chosen. I will choose the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique.” Lu Li held the red jade slip and cupped his hands.
“Okay!”
Demonic Devil flicked his finger and shot another jade slip over. “This is the annotation of the Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique. You can keep it with you.”
“Thank you, Master.”
Lu Li naturally did not stand on ceremony and directly kept it.
Then, Demonic Devil said proudly, “I am not a stingy person. Since you have become my true disciple, I’ll give you a spiritual tool.”
As he spoke, a stream of black qi floated out of his body and turned into a big black snake that slowly approached Lu Li.
Then, the snake opened its mouth and spat the spiritual tool out.
A small black tower. It had the size of a palm.
“This Ghost-Raising Tower is a high-grade spiritual tool that I used in the past. It can be used to subdue malicious ghosts and raise them for battle. When fully activated, it will weigh around 30,000 kg. You should keep it well.”
Demonic Devil said indifferently.
A high-grade spiritual tool that was worth 5,000 low-grade spirit stones?
He was actually so generous?
Lu Li was a little surprised. He grabbed the Ghost-Raising Tower and cupped his hands in salute. “Thank you, Master! I wish you eternal happiness and longevity!”
At the same time, he also carelessly praised.
“Hahaha, good. You are indeed much better than that stupid, arrogant, and ugly Xiao Yan.”
Demonic Devil laughed on the spot. “Alright, go and train harder. If there’s anything you don’t understand, go and ask your Senior Brothers and Sisters. Pick your cave. They should come to greet you when they hear it.”
“Thank you, Master! I will take my leave!”
Lu Li cupped his hands and bowed again before leaving the Demonic Devil’s cave.
Rumble!
This time, the black stone door closed and was never opened again.
Phew!
Lu Li secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
He had finally passed the test.
However, he still had to be careful. Otherwise, he would end up like Xiao Yan.
Lu Li glanced at the place where Xiao Yan had died.
The corpse was already gone.
There was not even a trace of blood.
It had been directly swallowed and absorbed by the black qi vines that were wrapped around the black stone door. Xiao Yan died. His corpse was consumed too.
It was challenging!
Training in the Demonic sect was even more difficult!
He needed to be alert!
Lu Li warned himself. He glanced at the endless sky, and his was able to calm down.
Then, he returned to his cave to pack his things. Later, he ran up the mountain and began to choose a new cave for himself!
