The Human Demon was right, Human Clan Cultivators were most interested in Cultivation Techniques and Divine Powers.
And Tao Qian was no exception.
Staring at the group of demons, Tao Qian asked, "Tell , what do you have to exchange for your lives?"
The demons, upon hearing this, all shook their heads in unison.
It was still the blurry and blood-fleshed Human Demon who stepped forward, hesitatingly said, "What we can offer, even we ourselves do not know."
As these words were spoken, it seed to have anticipated the fierce light that would appear in the eyes of the fearso Human Cultivator in front of it.
Forming a Dharma Seal, gluttoning all demons, even if it could not devour them, it still thought of refining them.
If it had been a Demon Cultivator, it might have been fine, but this one clearly bore the Spirit Treasure Dao Rhythm and nurtured an Innate Dao Seed, which was indeed strange and peculiar.
The Human Demon sighed internally, yet dared not delay on the surface.
After speaking, it imdiately followed with an explanation:
"We Outer Realm Demons are born because of all living beings and often deal with Cultivators, hence within our Demon Thoughts, there resides a vast amount of fragnted information, containing various Cultivation Techniques, Divine Powers and Spells from the Cultivation World. Unfortunately, as Heavenly Demons, we are unable to cultivate them; we rely instinctively preserve them. Moreover, our Demon Thoughts are chaotic and scattered, and none of us can extract a complete Magic Gate Mantra."
"However, there is a way, later we can devour and rge with one another, during which fleeting glimrs will appear, and within them might erge as complete and ordered Spells as possible. Of course, it may still be incomplete, and it won't be so thick to or the Basic thod that Human World Cultivators yearn for."
"Most likely, there will erge so mnemonics of only two or three verses, or a form of incomplete, complete Sword Technique, or an incomplete, complete Spell... If we are extrely lucky, we might also encounter a more complete Divine Power, but the level certainly wouldn't be high."
"Many Cultivators are also aware of this thod, often enticing us here and then forcing us to do this, aiming to refine great thods and great Divine Powers, but none has achieved their wishes."
"One reason is that the information stored within our Demon Thoughts will gradually erode, and the second is that our Demon Thoughts cannot truly rge if we are unwilling."
"Does the True Master wish to try his luck?"
"After the trial, regardless of what is obtained, all of us should be let go."
The Human Demon was afraid Tao Qian might not understand and explained thoroughly.
It was even sowhat nagging.
After listening, Tao Qian indeed showed a look of disappointnt, thinking that this was just a lottery, made to be so mystifying.
But with that thought, Tao Qian beca excited again.
Who could resist the allure of a lottery?
If he really could refine these group of demons into Elixirs, such tangible benefits at hand, then Tao Qian naturally had nothing to hesitate about.
Unfortunately, that was not possible at the mont.
He was just bluffing these group of demons, after all, he hadn't had ti to cultivate the "Exotic Fire Elixir Scroll."
Unexpectedly, this group of Heavenly Demons seed extrely fearful of the "Outer Heaven Fla Essence."
Just ntioning it, they involuntarily gave away their biggest secret.
After quietly noting this down, Tao Qian nodded towards the Human Demon and the Heavenly Demons, saying, "Agreed!"
Following his agreent, the group of demons all showed joy.
But thinking about what was to happen next, those crafty eyes filled with turmoil.
To avoid the treacherous Spirit Treasure Cultivator going back on his word, the demons invited him to swear an oath together.
After preparations were complete, under the watchful eyes of their creditor, the demons reluctantly began to devour and rge.
It was a sight that made Tao Qian gasp in amazent, simply put:
There was inside you!
And you in !
Accompanied by the wails of demons, filth splattered all around.
Very quickly, a large, writhing mass of strange flesh appeared in front of Tao Qian; the group of demons was within it, constantly writhing, changing, and painfully wailing.
It was as if a pair of huge hands had picked them up and kept kneading them.
As the rging deepened, a marvelous scene erged.
Above the flesh, layers of mist spread, and light and shadows flickered within it; various incomplete texts, symbols, and mnemonics floated unstably, sotis coming together, sotis dispersing, sotis orderly, and sotis chaotic, with the agonized faces of demons occasionally flashing by.
Tao Qian knew this was the beginning.
He imdiately began to watch intently, but the more he watched, the more disappointed he beca.
The texts and symbols that erged from the Light and Shadow Demon Thought were indeed extrely incomplete, and their order was utterly disarrayed, virtually worthless.
Gradually, the mass of flesh began to move faster, clearly entering the latter half, and it wouldn't be long before it ended.
Just as Tao Qian was feeling very disappointed, suddenly, a familiar "throbbing sensation" erged.
Almost instinctively, Tao Qian reached his hands into the flesh and imdiately touched the source. Then without any courtesy, he yanked it out.
With a "sizzle," he now held a piece of Ink Jade Bone in his hand.
On it, hundreds of tadpole-like characters were engraved, which Tao Qian also recognized as an ancient script.
However, now was not the ti for studying. Tao Qian rely glanced at the Extraordinary Perception triggered in his mind and then refocused on that mass of flesh.
It was writhing faster and faster, even beginning to swell as if it could explode at any mont.
The demons' wails grew even more tragic.
Several breaths later, and suddenly the next instant, that throbbing sensation erged again.
Tao Qian reached out again, and with a sizzling noise, he had in his hand a pale and approximately one foot long tusk.
From within the tusk, an alarming "Sword Intent" was overflowing.
When Tao Qian glanced at the information he perceived through touch in his mind, an uncontrollable look of joy almost instantly appeared on his face.
Just as he was basking in joy, the continuously expanding and squirming flesh's surface showed the faces of nurous demons, each face twisted in agony and ferocity, a terrifying pressure accumulating inside, and as they gazed at Tao Qian, who was only steps away, all the demons suddenly burst into laughter.
"Co... co... rge with us."
"One demon's Body Seizing is still Body Seizing, a group of demons' Body Seizing, is still Body Seizing."
"Greed, a mistake humans will always make, hahaha..."
While the demons were imrsed in the pleasure of their apparent success, unaware that this Spirit Platform Secret Acupoint was rejecting them.
Their triumphant laughter had just burst forth when the flesh was about to explode.
Suddenly, a massive vortex appeared, swallowing the flesh whole and sending it to the Outer Realm.
Before being sent away, their faces t Tao Qian's gaze, noticing him pinching the bone fragnt, the tusk, and looking at them with a aningful gaze.
Then, he insulted them unapologetically:
"Through several verifications of my own, I've indeed found that inferior Heavenly Demons are not very intelligent."
"But you all, on the other hand, make quite excellent nourishnt."
"Tasty and extrely useful."
"Boom."
After hearing Tao Qian's last insult, they exploded, their bodies mixed with those of other demons, bursting apart.
Just not within Tao Qian's spirit platform, but in so unknown Outer Realm.
With the departure of the demonic filth, tranquility and clarity returned.
Tao Qian smiled contentedly and, with joy and anticipation, looked at the two fully organized chunks of format information in his mind.
The information on the Ink Jade Bone was about a Divine Power Technique.
The tusk held a Sword Technique.
Previously, Tao Qian had only briefly scanned and had felt excited at seeing so keywords.
Now, reading carefully, as all the Records and annotations surfaced, touching upon a certain unbelievable annotation, Tao Qian's pupils suddenly narrowed, and he was stunned for a mont.
[Record Na: Secret Demon Transformation Technique.]
[Record Type: alien object.]
[Record: This technique originates from the Demon Sect's Great Book, "All Heavens Secret Demon Scripture," illusion subvolu, one among dozens of transformation techniques, a profoundly deep transformation Magic Skill which, once mastered, allows for countless transformations, enough to create chaos under the guise of reality, even those of higher Cultivation Realm than the cultivator cannot see through your disguised foundation, only so Major Sects of Daoist and Buddhist contain thods to discern it, yet they are rare and difficult, not sothing ordinary cultivators can practice... During the great wars, many Secret Demon Cultivators who mastered this technique used their transformation abilities to disrupt the Daoist and Buddhist from within, nearly turning defeat into victory for the Secret Demon Sect.]
[Remark One: Although this technique's mnemonic is only a few hundred characters, it is extrely profound and obscure, even those born with cultivation seeds may not be able to master it, and during the training process, the body and Divine Soul might collapse at any ti, or solidify into the transford object, never able to revert.]
[Remark Two: This technique does not include annotations to eliminate or reduce the price, one must counter it with personal comprehension, succeed and you may master the technique.]
[Remark Three: This technique was secreted among Outer Realm group of demons through special ans by the Secret Demon Sect.]
[Remark Four: Exemptions from collapse costs, exemptions from solidification costs.]
…
[Record Na: Secret Demon Body Sword Technique (fragnted).]
[Record Type: alien object.]
[Record: This technique originates from the Demon Sect's Great Book, "All Heavens Secret Demon Scripture," sword subvolu, one among hundreds of Sword Techniques, a profound and terrifying technique; once mastered, Demons and Ghosts, Immortal Gods, and Alien Charms, none could withstand a slash, this is a fragnted version, only one technique remains, greatly reducing its power.]
[Remark One: This technique, nad "Immortal Slaying," requires the Cultivator to first brew the Sword Intent over days and months; the longer the Sword Intent remains within the body, the greater the power upon release. Once, a Secret Demon Sword Cultivator who had mastered this technique carried a broken iron sword and burst into the Daoist Great Sect Pure Yang Sect's Mountain Gate laughing wildly, suddenly releasing the Immortal Slaying Sword, that day the Sword Intent shot through the skies, killing nurous Pure Yang Cultivators and when it ceased, the top of Pure Yang Mountain had been sheared off, and the heavily guarded Pure Yang Ancestor Palace partially collapsed.]
[Remark Two: Each release of this Sword Technique requires a new brewing of Sword Intent, and the difficulty surpasses the previous one, after several tis, it will forever be impossible to reach the 'Ultimate Sword Realm' that destroyed the Pure Yang Mountain Gate's Secret Demon Sword Cultivator.]
[Remark Three: This technique was secreted among Outer Realm group of demons through special ans by the Secret Demon Sect.]
[Remark Four: Exemption from difficulty costs!]
…
In the Spirit Platform Secret Acupoint, Tao Qian held the bone fragnt, the tusk, lost in thought.
Unquestionably, this one technique and one sword would greatly aid Tao Qian's current combat capabilities.
Yet simultaneously, he couldn't completely ignore that third annotation.
After a mont of thought, Tao Qian narrowed his eyes, stroking his chin, and muttered, "It seems I have inadvertently glimpsed the secretive sches of the Great Demon Sect, haven't I?"
