Myriad Demon Art

Demon cultivation techniques can also break the laws of the universe, just like the essence blood of Luo Yan.

"Then do you have that demon cultivation technique you mentioned?"

Er Ming immediately ruled out the second option.

It had already been difficult enough for them to survive the one-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation; they weren't sure they could withstand a second one.

Furthermore, it would take at least several thousand to ten thousand years to reach the two-hundred-thousand-year cultivation level, and who knew how long that would take.

"That's right, Luo Yan. We still have a long way to go before we reach two hundred thousand years. If we cultivate a demon technique, the time required should be shorter, right?"

Da Ming didn't want to wait that long either.

Although he was always more reserved, he felt the same as Er Ming: he wanted to follow Xiao Wu out to play in the future.

"Shortest is three years, longest is five. As long as you cultivate diligently, you can do it!"

"However, if you focus specifically on tempering your bloodlines, your cultivation level won't see much improvement during this period!"

Luo Yan replied.

He didn't actually know much about these things himself; it was all information provided by the system, and he trusted that the system wouldn't be bored enough to lie to him.

"System, can I only obtain other cultivation techniques, martial arts, and divine abilities by completing missions?"

Luo Yan suddenly remembered that the Azure Heaven Dragon Emperor Art gifted by the system earlier seemed suitable only for his own cultivation.

In that case, if Da Ming and Er Ming wanted to obtain a demon cultivation technique, they would either have to comprehend it from the Azure Heaven Dragon Emperor Art themselves, or wait for relevant missions in the future.

Moreover, now that Xiao Wu had become a true demon beast, she also needed a demon cultivation technique to practice.

"Ding, detected that the host's current world is of too low a grade. To open the system shop, you must reach the Ninth-Rank Demon Emperor stage or higher!"

"Ding, detected host requirements. Officially releasing mission: 'Subdue the forest overlords, Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python!'"

"Reward: Myriad Demon Art (A cultivation technique suitable for all demon beasts, can be cultivated up to the Ninth-Rank Demon Emperor realm!)"

Luo Yan didn't wait for the system's answer, but instead received a series of notification sounds and a mission panel.

Seeing the mission reward, Luo Yan's eyes lit up.

As expected of the system, it really puts one at ease. Whatever the host wants, it arranges. I would like to call you the number one system in the heavens!

"System, what must I do to meet the criteria for subduing them?"

Luo Yan maintained a thoughtful expression for Da Ming and Er Ming on the surface, while asking in his heart.

With the contract already in place, combined with Xiao Wu's natural affection for him, it could be said that Xiao Wu was currently obedient to his every word.

And Da Ming and Er Ming were very obedient to Xiao Wu.

In this way, it could be said by extension that Da Ming and Er Ming would also listen to him.

But since the system had released this mission, it was clear that simply having them listen to him wasn't enough to complete it.

"The host only needs to have Da Ming and Er Ming consume the host's essence blood to form a bloodline contract identical to Xiao Wu's, and the mission will be completed!"

The system's answer was very concise.

Hearing this, Luo Yan felt a surge of joy. If it was just that, this mission would be a piece of cake for him.

He immediately looked at Da Ming and Er Ming and said, "I do have a demon cultivation technique. I was planning to pass it on to Xiao Wu; after all, with a demon technique, Xiao Wu's cultivation speed will increase significantly."

"However, I cannot give you the demon technique for nothing. I have one condition."

"Luo Yan, just state your condition. As long as we can be like Sister Xiao Wu, I'd agree to ten thousand conditions!"

Er Ming quickly interjected.

Da Ming nodded from the side as well.

Luo Yan didn't waste any time and continued, "It's actually very simple: from now on, you must acknowledge me as your big brother, and you must listen to me!"

"Of course, I won't be stingy. In addition to the demon cultivation technique, I can give each of you a drop of my essence blood to help you succeed in transforming into human form sooner!"

If it weren't for the fact that the mission required essence blood, Luo Yan wouldn't have been willing to part with these two drops.

It would take at least two months for him to recover these two drops, and combined with his current depletion, it would be hard to fully recover for at least a year or two.

After all, essence blood is not like ordinary blood; it is the foundation of a demon beast!

"No problem! From now on, you are my big brother, Er Ming's big brother!" Er Ming agreed very readily.

To Er Ming, acknowledging Luo Yan as his big brother wasn't a big deal. Luo Yan's strength was already sufficient, not to mention that Luo Yan was also giving him a drop of essence blood.

"I have no problem with that either!"

Da Ming didn't hesitate either. Luo Yan's condition was indeed not demanding and wouldn't have much of an impact on him.

Most importantly, the two beasts weren't the type to be extremely arrogant soul beasts, otherwise, they wouldn't have become Xiao Wu's little brothers in the first place.

"Alright then, there's no time like the present. Today I shall accept you as my little brothers. Just don't forget to call me big brother from now on!"

Luo Yan didn't stand on ceremony and immediately assumed the role of big brother.

He then raised his right hand, with two drops of essence blood hovering in his palm. Under his control, the two drops flew toward Da Ming and Er Ming respectively.

Er Ming didn't hesitate in the slightest, opening his mouth to swallow the essence blood.

Da Ming took an extra look, but like Er Ming, he swallowed it down.

In an instant, the two soul beasts felt a warm current emerge within their massive bodies, and the gaze they directed toward Luo Yan softened considerably.

The essence blood was only for the contract, so it was completed in a mere moment.

"Ding, congratulations to the host, mission accomplished!"

The system's electronic notification sounded in Luo Yan's mind, and along with the electronic tone came a segment of memory containing the contents of the Myriad Demon Art.

He had received something similar when he previously obtained the Breath Concealment Art, so he was quite familiar with the process.

Moreover, because it was issued by the system, Luo Yan did not even need to practice; he had already mastered all nine levels of the Myriad Demon Art.

After a while, Luo Yan finished absorbing the entire Myriad Demon Art.

He immediately looked at Xiao Wu in his arms and said:

"Xiao Wu, I will pass this cultivation technique to you first. You can comprehend it yourself; after practicing the Myriad Demon Art, your cultivation will improve much more rapidly!"

Having said that, without waiting for Xiao Wu to reply, he reached out and stroked her head.

Although he could not directly impart his insights through empowerment, having reached the perfection of a Tier 2 Demon Warrior, Luo Yan was still capable of transmitting the content.

Once the transmission was complete, Xiao Wu closed her eyes to contemplate the Myriad Demon Art that Luo Yan had passed to her.

Following the same method, Luo Yan transmitted the contents of the Myriad Demon Art to Da Ming and Er Ming, letting them practice and comprehend it on their own.

Seeing that they had all fallen into a state of cultivation, Luo Yan ate his roasted meat by himself.

For seven consecutive days, Da Ming and Er Ming remained by the Life Lake to meditate.

Xiao Wu, meanwhile, transformed into her human form and returned to the small cabin to meditate.

Since she had become a true demon beast, her speed of comprehension was much faster than that of Da Ming and Er Ming.

By this morning, she had succeeded in her practice, breaking through to the first level of the Myriad Demon Art.

Her cultivation also advanced from the early stage of a Tier 1 Lesser Demon to the middle stage of a Tier 1 Lesser Demon.
