A Windfall: An Arcane-Grade Blood Refining Method

"Ah?!"

Zhan Qiushui was completely dumbfounded.

You want cultivation techniques and blood skills?!

In this Martial Dao world, high-level techniques and blood skills are absolute core secrets of major families and organizations! They are forbidden from being passed on privately!

She hesitated.

"This... this is against the rules." She bit her lip.

"Laugh."

Dongfang Yueming let out an undisguised, mocking laugh.

"Rule?"

"You're practically being eaten by these monsters, and you're still talking to me about rules?"

He walked slowly to Zhan Qiushui and looked down at her.

"If I hadn't happened to be passing by, you'd be a pile of minced meat by now. Do you think your rules could have saved your life?"

"Or are you saying that a few sets of martial arts techniques are more valuable than your life?"

These words struck Zhan Qiushui's heart like a heavy hammer.

yes.

What's the point of those rigid rules if you're already dead?

Moreover, this person not only saved him but also killed a troublesome Variants, which can be considered as indirectly eliminating a scourge for humanity.

Zhan Qiushui took a deep breath, her Spirit Transformation hardening.

"Okay! I'll tell you!"

"But you must promise never to tell anyone!"

"Of course, I'm only interested in becoming stronger." Dongfang Yueming nodded in satisfaction.

"You probably don't need the cultivation techniques for the Blood Nourishing Realm anymore, right?" Zhan Qiushui asked.

"No need, let's start directly from the Blood Refining Realm."

"Good."

Zhan Qiushui sat cross-legged and began to verbally explain the methods he had mastered.

"I specialize in two Blood Refining Method. One is the Yellow Grade ' One Origin Blood Refining Art,' which was awarded by the Disciplinary Committee and is suitable for building a foundation."

"The other one is the Profound Grade ' Ice Heart Blood Refining Record,' which I obtained after making great contributions within the Night Watchers. This technique is extremely dangerous, requiring cultivation in extremely cold places. The slightest carelessness can freeze one's heart meridians, but once mastered, one's blood and qi will possess extreme cold attributes, making it incredibly powerful."

Dongfang Yueming listened with great interest, silently reciting in his heart:

[Ding! You have learned the cultivation technique "One Origin Blood Refining Art" (Yellow Grade) (0/9, not yet Entry)!]

[Ding! You have learned the cultivation technique "Ice Heart Blood Refining Record" (Profound Grade) (0/18, Not Yet Entry)!]

"That's a huge profit!"

Dongfang Yueming was overjoyed.

He was originally worried about how to get those 10 credits to exchange for a Yellow Grade Blood Refining Method after the field training. Now, not only does he have Yellow Grade one, but he even got Profound Grade one for free!

"Next up is Blood Technique."

Zhan Qiushui continued.

"My specialty is swordsmanship, and this is the Profound Grade blood technique, ' Fourteen Blades of Frost and Cold '."

"In terms of movement techniques, it's the Profound Grade ' Treading Snow in Search of Plum Blossoms the Snow' used in conjunction with sword techniques."

As she dictated, two more powerful Profound Grade blood skills appeared on Dongfang Yueming's panel.

"Anything else?" Dongfang Yueming asked greedily, "That's all?"

Zhan Qiushui's pretty face suddenly flushed red, and her eyes darted away.

"There's... there's one more."

"But... but I advise you not to learn it."

"Oh? What kind of blood technique is so mysterious?" Dongfang Yueming became interested.

"It's... it's a support-type blood skill."

Zhan Qiushui's voice was so soft it was barely audible; if Dongfang Yueming hadn't had such amazing hearing, he probably wouldn't have been able to hear it at all.

"It's called... ' The Jade Maiden Spring-Locking Art '."

"This is a technique... that uses a special pathway for the flow of Qi and blood to... lock in one's own primordial Yin, maintain youthful appearance, and even... in that kind of thing, be able to... be able to counterattack the opponent..."

Cough cough cough!

Dongfang Yueming nearly choked on his own saliva.

He stared wide-eyed at the senior student in front of him who had always acted like an ice queen.

"You... you're a disciplinary committee member, Night Watchers investigator... and you practice... this kind of weird blood technique?!"

What do you know!

As if her sore spot had been touched, Zhan Qiushui blushed and retorted like a cat with its fur standing on end.

"This... I found it by chance during an exploration of ancient ruins!"

"That's not what I wanted!"

"Yes! It was obtained by chance!"

She forced herself to find a plausible reason.

"Alright, alright, you definitely didn't ask for this blood skill willingly."

Dongfang Yueming suppressed a laugh and waved his hand.

"Since you've shared everything you know, then this deal is done."

He turned and disappeared into the darkness without hesitation.

"Be careful, don't let yourself become prey so easily again."

Looking in the direction where Dongfang Yueming disappeared, Zhan Qiushui breathed a long sigh of relief.

Although she was ripped off and her "little secret" was exposed, for some reason, she couldn't feel any aversion to this mysterious masked youth.

I hope you... can survive.

She struggled to her feet and took out the blood-stained phone.

Looking at the information Xiahou Jing left behind on the screen, a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips.

"The Xiahou Family..."

"Let's see how you get out of this!"

On the other side.

Like a night bird, Dongfang Yueming darted swiftly through the ruins, heading towards the camp.

[Two Blood Refining Method, two Profound Grade Blood Skills.]

This round of "robbing the rich to help the poor" was absolutely perfect.

He was secretly planning his next Point Allocation allocation.

But at the same time, his brain was also working at lightning speed.

"That senior student... is a bit too naive."

Dongfang Yueming recalled Zhan Qiushui's previous words, a cold clarity flashing in his eyes.

"The Great Xia Night Watchers?"

"Secretly fighting against Variants?"

"Hehe."

"If the Variants are really just Rat lurking in the shadows, why hasn't the authorities conducted a thorough purge over all these years?"

Why do ordinary students who received the "opportunity" and had their blood and energy accelerated disappear without a trace, while the school and the authorities turn a blind eye to it?

"Why does the Xiahou Family dare to openly treat commoner martial artists as prey on their 'feeding list'...?"

Dongfang Yueming looked up at the night sky, which was obscured by thick clouds.

"To survive in this cannibalistic world, even to overturn the chessboard..."

"The only reliance is absolute power!"
