Demon Sect Cultivation: I Can Disable Debuffs - Chapter 9

“Senior Brother, I choose to exchange for the Mad Blood Demon Saber, Ice Soul Slash, Blood Armor Technique, Blood Burst Technique, and Blood Ignition Technique.”

“Are you sure?” Hearing Zhang Chen’s words, the disciple at the Technique Exchange Pavilion was stunned. Since he was in charge, he naturally knew about these five techniques.

Mad Blood Demon Saber contained a shocking demonic intent in the blade that seized the souls of those with weak willpower. 10 bowls of blood essence were needed to exchange for it.

Those who learned this saber technique would be tormented by demonic intent and would eventually fall into madness after a long time.

Ice Soul Slash absorbed the Yin energy to transform it into extremely cold energy, which was stored in the body and could freeze the enemy’s blood and body. It required 10 bowls of blood essence to exchange for it.

Those who learned this technique would be eroded by the Yin energy and poisoned by the cold.

Blood Armor Technique coagulated blood to form armor that adhered to the skin’s surface and was impervious to water and fire, and couldn’t be penetrated by swords and spears. It required 10 bowls of blood essence to exchange for it.

Those who learned this technique would suffer from the pain of being devoured by 10,000 ants, which was worse than death.

Blood Burst Technique used spiritual power to attack the acupoints and meridians of the hands and feet, instantly increasing speed tenfold. It required 10 bowls of blood essence to exchange for it.

Using this technique would damage the acupoints and meridians, and one might become a cripple.

The Blood Ignition Technique burned the blood to temporarily enhance the cultivation base, requiring 10 bowls of blood essence to exchange for it.

Once this method was used, it couldn’t be stopped until the blood was burned out, resulting in death.

These five techniques were all very powerful, but they shared the same characteristic of having severe costs and negative effects.

Due to the severe costs, the blood essence required to exchange for these five techniques was not much.

For Zhang Chen, who had the modifier, these techniques were the most suitable.

In fact, many other techniques from unorthodox sources were also suitable, but the Blood supreme-ruler Sect did not have the resources to practice those techniques.

“Confirmed.” Zhang Chen nodded in affirmation.

The two of them were neither relatives nor friends. The disciple of the Technique Exchange Pavilion did not say anything else. He looked at Zhang Chen as if he was looking at a dead person. Then he handed the paper with the name of the cultivation techniques to the Technique Exchange Pavilion.

Before long, a disciple came with five books in his hands.

Putting the books on the table, the disciple in charge of the Technique Exchange Pavilion took out the equipment for storing blood and said, “Draw blood, one book for 10 bowls of blood essence, and 50 bowls in total for all five books.”

Zhang Chen simply raised his hand and drew blood.

As blood continuously flowed out, Zhang Chen’s cultivation realm quickly dropped to the third level of Qi cultivation, his face turning pale, and his footsteps becoming unsteady.

After confirming that there were no mistakes, the disciple of the Technique Exchange Pavilion handed five books to Zhang Chen. “The techniques obtained from the exchange can’t be taught privately, and anyone who violates this rule will be demoted to a blood slave.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother.” Zhang Chen received the technique books, bowed, and left.

Looking at Zhang Chen’s departing figure, the disciple of the Technique Exchange Pavilion sneered. “You really don’t know what’s good for you.”

Back in his cave, Zhang Chen first replenished the blood he had lost and reached the fifth level of Qi cultivation before starting to read the techniques.

He flipped open the Mad Blood Demon Saber book. The words in it were oppressive, distorted, and strange. They were filled with crazy concepts.

Kill!

Kill!

Kill everyone!

It was as if a lunatic was constantly telling him about his madness, wanting to turn him into a lunatic as well.

Just by looking at it, he had the urge to slash around before he even started practicing.

Zhang Chen read very slowly, and it took a long time for him to turn a page. His expression was painful, he was sweating profusely, and his body trembled slightly.

It wasn’t that Mad Blood Demon Saber was profound and difficult to understand, but it was about resisting the madness in it.

Mad Blood Demon Saber only had a few thousand words, but Zhang Chen spent six full hours reading it!

“Phew~”

After closing the Mad Blood Demon Saber book, Zhang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground, feeling a bit exhausted.

The moves of Mad Blood Demon Saber were very ordinary. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was just random slashing. The main point was that it contained a crazy intent.

Every slash was aimed at attacking the opponent’s consciousness with the user’s own crazy thoughts. The crazier the user was, the greater the power.

Most people faced with these sudden crazy thoughts would be trapped in a mental battle. They would stand still and be at the mercy of others.

“As expected of a demonic technique. If not for the modifier, I really wouldn’t dare to cultivate it.”

[Detected spell, Mad Blood Demon Saber. Kills everything with a crazy intent.]

[Side effect: You will be invaded and tormented by the demonic intent, turning into a lunatic.]

[Please wait a moment, system modification is in progress…]

[Ding! Modification complete. Side effects canceled.]

Hearing the system’s sound, Zhang Chen frowned. “The power of Mad Blood Demon Saber relies entirely on the madness intent. Without the madness intent, I don’t know if the power is still there.”

After all, it was exchanged for 10 bowls of blood essence. Without the power, it would be a big loss.

With this in mind, the blood condensed into a blade in Zhang Chen’s hand, and he began to practice Mad Blood Demon Saber.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

One slash after another. There were no moves, only continuous slashes.

As he became more familiar with it, Zhang Chen’s slashing speed became faster and more chaotic.

He was like a lunatic, a lunatic who only knew how to hack and slash!

He seemed crazy, but his mind was clear. There was no madness in his eyes, which formed a stark contrast to his actions.

Although there was no madness in his mind, Zhang Chen still felt that every stroke he made carried with it a sense of madness.

It seemed that the madness in his consciousness had been transformed into the madness in his swordsmanship, and the desired effect was achieved without fail.

“Take the essence, discard the dross. As expected of a modifier!”

Zhang Chen was overjoyed. He kept practicing Mad Demon Blood Saber until he ran out of energy and had no choice but to stop and rest.

While resting, Zhang Chen flipped through the pages of the Ice Soul Slash book again.

The reason he chose Ice Soul Slash was that the introduction said it could freeze the enemy’s blood.

As the Blood supreme-ruler Sect mainly used blood as an attack method, it would be very useful for dealing with fellow disciples.

Freezing the opponent’s blood was equivalent to weakening their magic power.

Ice Soul Slash wasn’t as evil as Mad Blood Demon Saber, so he didn’t encounter any problems reading it.

[Detected technique ‘Ice Soul Slash’. Absorbs cold air and converts it into extremely cold air to store in the body, released when using sword Qi.]

[Side effects: You will be corroded and your body will be poisoned by the cold air. Your body will be weak and susceptible to the cold. Your lifespan will be shortened.]

[Please wait a moment, system modification is in progress…]

[Ding! Modification complete. Side effects canceled.]

“Alright, I can cultivate Ice Soul Slash now!”

Zhang Chen sat cross-legged and began to absorb the cold air.

Two hours later, Zhang Chen reluctantly opened his eyes.

“There is too little cold air in the cave. It took an hour to absorb enough and convert it into a wisp of extremely cold air.

“Only 10 wisps can be combined into one. It seems that I have to put aside Ice Soul Slash first and cultivate it in the future.”

With this time, whether it was cultivating the demon blood or practicing other techniques, the improvement would be much faster than Ice Soul Slash.

In particular, Ice Soul Slash was also physically exhausting. After using it, he had to absorb and convert the cold air again.

If he cultivated in a cold place like an ice cave, he could accumulate extremely cold air first.

Zhang Chen then took out the Blood Armor Technique book.

[Detected Blood Armor Technique, which condenses blood into armor.]

[Side effect: You will suffer the pain of 10,000 ants biting your skin every day.]

[Please wait a moment, system modification is in progress…]

[Ding! Modification complete. Side effects canceled.]
