Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Upon hearing the system notification, Lu Li checked his interface.
Host: Lu Li.
Realm: Level 1 qi refinement realm.
Indestructible Divine Technique: Level 3 (Progress 10%).
Ghostly Steps Technique: Level 1 (Progress 12%).
Heart-Shattering Palm Technique: Level 1 (Progress 3%).
“My cultivation speed is not bad.”
Looking at the system interface, Lu Li showed a satisfied expression.
At this rate, he would be able to break through to the second level in less than 10 days.
By the end of the month, he should be able to break through to the third level.
He would definitely be able to pass the test of the Demonic Devil!
However, he could not fall behind in the cultivation of the Indestructible Divine Technique.
As Lu Li was thinking, he began to recite the Heart Sutra silently.
At the same time, he slightly released his blood and qi to lure the resentful and malicious spirits.
Not long after, a malicious spirit rushed toward him.
Lu Li rushed up.
“… all dharmas have the nature of emptiness. They neither arise nor perish; they are neither impure nor pure; they neither increase nor decrease… Roar! The Buddha is merciful! Return to reincarnation!”
Bang.
An explosion sound rang out.
The malicious spirit was blown up on the spot, turning into pure ghostly qi and entered his body.
Just like that, Lu Li began his boring routine of exorcising malicious spirits.
He was training all the time.
20 days passed in the blink of an eye.
…
Demons Cave.
In a valley filled with bones, ghosts and spirits cried, yelled, and screamed pitifully.
5 shadows were emitting sharp and ear-piercing howls. They were using all kinds of fierce spells to besiege a black-clothed youth.
The youth was tall. His expression was cold and fierce. His movements were agile as he dodged the shadows’ attacks.
He was fighting them with ease.
Suddenly, his body stopped abruptly. With the Ghostly Step Technique, he appeared in front of a level 10 blood-eating ghost. His large palm was like an iron door as he hit on it.
Bang.
The blood-eating ghost’s heart was pierced, and its entire body convulsed as it howled. Then, it exploded.
This was not the end.
The youth’s entire body flashed with a golden light as he forcefully withstood the attack of the level 10 three-headed ghost behind him. He raised his other hand, and his fingers were sharp. In an instant, it grabbed the one-eyed ghost that was stealthily attacking from above his head.
Bang.
Another level 10 malicious spirit was grabbed and exploded into ghostly qi that filled the sky.
“The Buddha is merciful. I’ll send you off!”
In the next moment, he flipped, and his large palm was like an eagle’s claw as he grabbed the three-headed ghost that was trying to escape.
Then, he threw out three fierce punches.
Bang. Bang. Bang.
All of its heads exploded on the spot.
Their bodies were immediately burned by the blazing sun and positive energy, turning into nothingness.
The malicious spirits were defeated in an instant!
Seeing such brave and strong youth, the remaining 2 malicious spirits showed fear on their faces and fled in panic.
“Amitabha. The human world is full of suffering. I’ll send your souls for reincarnation!”
However, the youth shouted sternly and his body was like a ghost. He sped up as he was able to catch up with a malicious spirit in an instant.
Without saying a word, he used Crushing Palm. It was sinister and ruthless, as if a mountain was about to be pierced through.
“Ah…”
This malicious spirit only had time to let out a miserable cry before its heart was crushed by the golden hand that had penetrated its body. The spirit then turned into ghostly qi and filled the sky.
Seeing this, the speed of the other malicious spirit increased sharply, and it fled for its life.
However, the youth did not chase after it. He just stood there.
The pure and dense ghostly aura that was surrounding him automatically entered his body.
Lu Li was the youth.
[Your Ghostly Steps Technique has absorbed a large amount of ghostly aura and is incomparably satisfied. Your progress has increased by 5%.]
[Congratulations, host! Your Ghostly Steps Technique has broken through to the fourth level.]
[Your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique is full of killing intent because of your continuous killing. Your progress has increased by 10%.]
“Congratulations, host! Your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique has broken through to the fourth level.]
At this moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
Consecutive breakthroughs!
Lu Li narrowed his eyes slightly.
As expected of the demonic techniques, his cultivation speed was really fast!
However, in these 20 days, he had worked hard to exorcise malicious spirits and cultivated these 2 demonic techniques. He was not surprised by the result.
In the beginning, he only attracted 1 malicious spirit.
After his battle experience increased, he began to lure 2 malicious spirits, and even 3 malicious spirits.
Hence, he went all the way into the Demons Cave.
On the tenth day, he broke through to the third level of the Ghostly Steps Technique. He tried to lure 4 malicious spirits and challenged them all at once.
His battle experience increased again!
He also took hold in the bone valley.
There were a few times when he met a few Netherworld Ghost sect disciples.
When these guys saw that Lu Li was killing ghosts and spirits like killing animals, they all retreated. They dared not fight with him.
After another 10 days, Lu Li was able to fight five malicious ghosts of the tenth level of the qi refining realm at the same time.
He was able to do it with ease! He was even unharmed!
However, not knowing if it was because he had cultivated the demonic techniques, his personality had also undergone some changes, as if he had become somewhat cold-blooded.
He did not show his emotions either.
Lu Li realized he was a little different, but he did not correct himself.
After all, in this extremely dangerous Demonic sect, this kind of cold personality was easier for him to survive.
“System.”
Lu Li muttered to himself and opened the system interface.
Host: Lu Li.
Realm: Level 1 qi refinement.
Heart-Shattering Palm Technique: Level 4 (Progress 1%).
Ghostly Steps Technique: Level 4 (Progress 1%).
Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra: Level 1 (Progress 0%).
After staying in the Demons Cave for 20 days, his Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra’s cultivation progress had finally regressed to 0%.
Now, even immortals could not tell that he had cultivated the true technique of the Flying Temple.
However, his realm was still at the first level of qi refinement.
Lu Li was not worried at all.
Without comparing to spiritual tools, his combat strength was comparable to foundation stage and middle-stage demonic cultivators.
No one below the foundation stage could match him!
The only bad news was that the Indestructible Divine Technique was stuck at the third level and could not be broken through!
Indestructible Divine Technique: Level 3 (Progress 99%).
This feeling was like downloading a learning material and getting stuck at the 99%. He felt very uncomfortable.
However, Lu Li had no choice.
[Your Indestructible Divine Technique cannot be broken through because your realm is low. Your physical body is lacking in spiritual energy too.]
It was his realm that dragged down the breakthrough of his Indestructible Divine Technique.
Lu Li also did not expect that the modified Indestructible Divine Technique had such a restriction.
However, after thinking carefully, it was actually a good thing.
If his Indestructible Divine Technique broke through, Demonic Devil would definitely suspect him.
He actually cultivated 3 cultivation techniques to the highest level within a month?
No matter how good his aptitude was, it was impossible!
At that time, once the soul-searching and soul-refining method was used, all of his secrets would probably be found out by Demonic Devil.
“It’s time to go back. I should rest for 3 days and prepare for Demonic Devil’s test!”
Lu Li exhaled, turned around, and returned to his cave.
Soon, he saw the blue barrier of light. With a flash, he passed through it and disappeared.
“That kid has finally left.”
The moment Lu Li disappeared, a red-haired man appeared in midair. He raised his hand and said with narrowed eyes, “Tsk tsk, if this kid doesn’t leave now, all the qi refining malicious spirits will be killed by him.”
At the same time, a charming woman dressed in a black veil appeared out of thin air.
“Just a few malicious spirits, so be it. However, that kid talks about Amitabha and Buddha when he kills, but his attacks are more ruthless than anyone else. He takes the life of a malicious spirit every move he makes. Who’s his master?”
The red-haired man had a look of praise on his face.
“Demonic Devil!”
The charming woman answered, “Oh? Demonic Devil? He actually has such a talented disciple? Hmph, if he wasn’t about to break through to the nascent soul realm, I would have directly snatched this kid and made him my disciple!” When the red-haired man heard this, his expression turned cold, and he disappeared into thin air.
“Yeah, it’s indeed a pity. But…”
The charming and beautiful woman giggled. “If he can’t be my disciple, he can be my husband.”
…
At this time, Lu Li did not know that someone was coveting his talent and charming look.
He returned to his cave and began to wash up.
Just as he finished washing up and was about to sleep, a system notification rang in his mind.
[Your Heart-Shattering Palm Technique finds the Indestructible Divine Technique very annoying. He provoked the Indestructible Divine Technique, but in the end, he was taught a lesson instead. He’s not in a good mood now, and your progress has regressed.]
Heart-Shattering Palm Technique: Level 4 (Progress 0%).
