High Antiquity Half-Demon Legacy!
Before Sun Xingtian could recover, the scene before him changed again, and his consciousness was forcibly pulled into another ancient starry sky.
Deep within the starry sky, a colossal phantom, half-human Half-Demon, sat cross-legged.
With the sun above his head and the moon beneath his feet, as he opened his mouth, Tianxing poured into his body like a waterfall. A terrifying pressure, surpassing heaven and earth, seemed to transcend endless time, constantly assaulting Sun Xingtian's mind...
A torrent of information flooded my mind, converging into a complex and profound cultivation Cultivation Method.
The Greater Yin Star Refining Instruction
Cultivate the Yin-Yang Dao, draw upon the Yin moon and stars to temper your body, and seize the creation of heaven and earth.
The most crucial opening line, like a brand, was etched into Sun Xingtian: "None but humans can cultivate, none but demons can cultivate; use Human Race wisdom to comprehend the Dao, use the body of Demon Race to bear it; only through the harmony of Yin and Yang can one prove the Great Dao."
This is actually a supreme method that only Half-Demon can cultivate!
Furthermore, it directly points to the Nascent Soul realm, the Jueyin Immortal Foundation within the Yin-Yang Dao: [Bewitching Hearts]
What truly captivated Sun Xingtian was the description at the end of the Cultivation Method: "Upon mastering this method, one Qi-less Core Formation, increasing the chances of success by 10%!"
Sun Xingtian opened his eyes, his vertical pupils contracted sharply, and his breathing became heavy and labored.
Increases the probability of Qi-less Core Formation by 10%!
In the cultivation world, countless Foundation Establishment cultivators would fight to the death for the chance of achieving a partial Core Formation; and this Cultivation Method was practically a divine artifact tailor-made for their Heavenly Demon Guard!
He gripped the bone fragment tightly, an uncontrollable greed growing wildly like weeds.
If this method is concealed and practiced in private...
With his bloodline of the Six-Winged Golden Cicada, he has a very high probability of achieving the Golden Core in the future, and may even be able to glimpse the supreme Nascent Soul realm, becoming a regional overlord and never having to be subservient to others again!
Greed surged within him, and Sun Xingtian's eyes became dark and unfathomable.
But in the next instant, a lightning mark appeared deep between his brows, constantly pulsating—the original imprint of the "Heavenly Demon Sainthood Transformation Instruction".
It was also Shi Jian who planted an absolute restriction deep within the souls of all the Heavenly Demon Guard.
The moment the mark pulsed, a shiver from the depths of his soul swept through his body, and Sun Xingtian felt a tremor run through him, cold sweat instantly soaking his back.
Greed recedes like the tide, replaced by extreme fear and morbid fanaticism, as if brainwashed.
Snap!
Sun Xingtian slapped himself hard across the face, his cheek swelling up instantly and blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
"Madness!"
Sun Xingtian gritted his teeth, cursing himself. "Without the Holy Ancestor's blood, we wouldn't even be qualified to be demons; we'd be nothing more than ants raised by Human Race!"
"Such a divine object is only worthy of the Holy Ancestor!"
With trembling hands, he carefully placed the bone fragments back into the bronze box, reattached the Spirit Sealing, and cautiously stored them in his personal Storage Bag.
Upon exiting the secret vault, the Lin Household mansion had already been reduced to a sea of fire.
Dozens of Heavenly Demon Guard, their bodies covered in Storage Bag of all sizes, their skin soaked in blood, their eyes filled with bloodlust.
"Young Master Xingtian, everything has been taken away."
"The entire Lin Household, three thousand people, were wiped out; not a single one was spared. They were all strangled." The rat-turned-demon guard leaned forward, licking the bits of flesh from his paws.
"Withdraw."
Sun Xingtian remained expressionless as his Six-Winged flapped, propelling him into the sky.
The black-robed ghosts quickly disappeared into the night, leaving behind only a dead city engulfed in flames, where countless corpses would be consumed by the fire, burning away all sins.
The Myriad Demon Domain, Purple Firmament Peak.
Thunderclouds never disperse, and purple-gold lightning rolls and tumbles within them like angry dragons.
Shi Jian sat upright on the edge of the Thunder Pool, breathing in and out the Heaven and Earth Qi Dynamic. White Crane fanned himself beside him, looking at the mountain of resources piled up at the foot of the mountain.
"These Half-Demon are quite useful weapons."
White Crane chuckled lightly, "In the past six months, they have plundered seven cities and more than a dozen mines along the border of Clear Blue and Wei Kingdom."
"With the deaths of over a million mortals, the annihilation of more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Lineage, and the casualties of tens of thousands of cultivators, the Human Race is finally starting to get restless."
Shi Jian didn't open his eyes, and said calmly, "The sharper the knife, the easier it is to use."
As soon as he finished speaking, a streak of Dark Gold light swept down from the sky and landed at the foot of Purple Firmament Peak.
Sun Xingtian knelt on one knee, holding the bronze box high with both hands, his voice fervent and devout. "Holy Ancestor! Your subordinate obtained an High Antiquity inheritance in the Lin Household's secret vault in Fallen Star City, and has come to offer it to you!"
Shi Jian slowly opened his eyes, a strange light flashing in his thunderous gaze.
He made a grabbing motion in the air, and the bronze box instantly fell into his palm; the Spirit Sealing shattered, and bone fragments floated in the air; Shi Jian swept his Divine Sense over it, and his eyebrows rose slightly.
"The Greater Yin Star Refining Instruction..."
Shi Jian quickly read the information in the bone fragments, becoming somewhat interested. "It cannot be cultivated by anyone but a demon..."
"What an interesting High Antiquity Half-Demon technique!"
White Crane approached, probing the bone fragment with his Divine Sense. He immediately looked surprised and slammed his folding fan shut. "Increases the probability of Qi-less Core Formation by 10%?"
"This Cultivation Method is practically tailor-made for the Heavenly Demon Guard; it seems there were indeed records of several Half-Demon lords in our clan's bloodline High Antiquity times."
"But we just don't know which High Antiquity ancestor passed this down."
Shi Jian put away the bone fragments, looked down at Sun Xingtian below the mountain peak, his eyes full of admiration.
Faced with such temptation, this Half-Demon was able to restrain his greed and voluntarily hand it over; this shows that the brainwashing and control of the "Heavenly Demon Sainthood Transformation Instruction" has penetrated to the bone marrow, making the probability of betrayal extremely low.
From now on, all important matters can be gradually entrusted to these Half-Demon.
In the future, we can certainly lend a hand to his Demon Race!
"Sun Xingtian, a direct descendant of the Sun Clan, you have rendered meritorious service in presenting this treasure."
Shi Jian's voice boomed like thunder, his imposing aura overwhelming, "I grant you permission to copy this Cultivation Method; furthermore, I bestow upon you a drop of third-tier Thunder Marrow to aid in tempering your Six-Winged, enabling you to learn the art of Lightning Escape!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Xingtian kowtowed heavily, his forehead striking the thunderous rock with a resounding thud.
"Your Majesty's grace is so great, I would gladly die for it!"
After he finished speaking, the surroundings returned to calm.
Upon seeing this, Sun Xingtian respectfully bowed and then transformed into a streak of light and fled.
White Crane watched Sun Xingtian's retreating figure, lightly tapping his palm with his folding fan. "Brother Shi, with this Cultivation Method, the potential of the Heavenly Demon Guard will reach a new level."
"Given time, I'm afraid I can truly cultivate a batch of Half-Demon Golden Core for you."
Shi Jian sneered, his long robes fluttering in the wind. "Human Race think they can preserve their strength and restore their foundation by cowering in the shadows?"
"I will use their former kin to undermine their very foundations!"
