Chapter 22
"Why did you even use the beauty trap? You are too shameless, aren't you?"
Gu Cheng's face was dark, and he secretly complained in his heart.
At this moment, a tide of memories flooded into his mind.
Gu Cheng closed his eyes and carefully sorted out for a long time before he extracted the information that he was most interested in from this huge amount of complicated information.
The true identity of the Blood Lady is the concubine of an elder of the 'Innate Realm' in the Blood Knife Sect.
With her proud figure and appearance, as well as her extremely exquisite cooking skills, she firmly grasped the heart of the elder and was loved in every way.
The cooking skills that Gu Cheng learned at the beginning came from this.
When the Demon Suppression Division headquarters besieged the Blood Knife Sect's lair before, this witch was so bold that she took advantage of the chaos to empty her man's treasure house and then ran away!
She hid all the treasures in that treasure house in a secret base in Tianshui County.
She quietly slipped to Changle County, intending to avoid the limelight in this remote place.
Xue Niangzi knew the principle of "a cunning rabbit has three burrows", so she hid part of her luggage in a dilapidated temple in a local village.
She had been hanging the second volume of "Blood Sword Sutra" from Tang Yuan and others, and she hid it here.
"Humph, she is really a demon witch, and this thing is too unkind."
Gu Cheng looked contemptuous.
What Xue Niangzi did was really like those mistresses who ran away with money when the gang boss was in trouble.
This time, the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Division specifically asked to escort Xue Niangzi back to Tianshui City.
In all likelihood, it was also for the treasures she took away in the chaos, right?
To make the bosses of the headquarters pay so much attention, could there be any extremely important treasures in the collection of the Xiantian Realm elder?
Gu Cheng couldn't help but be interested, thinking that this beauty trap was really not in vain!
But considering that the secret base was too far from Changle County, he put the matter aside for the time being.
Anyway, Lady Blood was dead, and he was the only one in the world who knew about it, so there was no need to rush.
It would not be too late to find a suitable opportunity to secretly go treasure hunting after the hype had passed.
"This soul remnant is really a good thing, it is indeed a rare drop..."
Gu Cheng sighed softly.
The harvest this time far exceeded his expectations.
Not to mention the cooking skills as a foil, and those precious intelligence.
The first volume of the "Blood Knife Sutra" alone is enough to pay for the "ticket money" of ten years of life.
In the fierce battle last night.
Gu Cheng had already personally experienced the power of the Blood Knife Sect's unique skills.
To be fair, if Lady Blood was in a better state at that time, her rationality would be clearer, and she would not have gone crazy because of a scratch on her face.
Even if Gu Cheng could still win, it would probably not be as easy as killing in one blow.
"This Blood Sword Sutra is quite powerful, but as a magic technique, it must kill people to practice, which is not only against human ethics, but also cannot be achieved in one step by spending lives to practice..."
"If I use my life span to fight hard, can I skip the step of killing people and find another way?"
Gu Cheng pondered for a moment and decided to give it a try.
He poured his remaining life span into the Blood Sword Sutra year by year.
[First year: You started practicing the Blood Sword Sutra, and you were confident because you had successfully practiced the Blue Dragon Hundred Refinements.
As the saying goes, once you master one, you will master all. No matter how difficult this Blood Sword Sutra is, how much more difficult can it be than a precious technique? ]
[Second year: What a bullshit one mastery! This Blood Sword Sutra and the Blue Dragon Hundred Refinements are completely unrelated!
It does not rely on blood and qi to open up the thirty-six major orifices, but uses blood and qi to refine the blood soldiers of the life force, and then makes it stronger by absorbing the blood of others.
Your previous hundreds of years of practice experience are almost of no reference value. 】
"It still doesn't work..."
Gu Cheng sighed, this "Blood Knife Sutra" is really too special.
They don't cultivate themselves, but only cultivate external things.
In this way, the evil ways of this list of blood knife sects are purely a group of "knife racks" who rely on the advantages of weapons.
Such an evil practice, I think it is hard to escape the way of "killing people to practice", right?
However, just when Gu Cheng was about to give up, there was a new development on the panel.
[Year 12: In order to seek help, you once again consumed ten years of life to awaken the residual soul of the blood lady, and wanted to consult the experience of this "predecessor".
After listening to your idea, the blood lady sneered at it. How can people who practice evil skills not kill innocent people indiscriminately?
But seeing that you are so beautiful and in a good mood, she patiently helps you with your plans. 】
"Is there such a thing?"
Gu Cheng was slightly startled, and was surprised and happy in his heart.
It seems that this soul remnant is not only a treasure to be excavated, but also a consultant to assist in the deduction of martial arts!
…
[Fifteenth year: You and Lady Blood have devoted themselves to research and finally figured out a feasible plan.
The reason why "Blood Sword Sutra" can be completed quickly is that it absorbs the essence and blood of others, harming others and benefiting oneself, in order to strengthen the blood soldiers of the natal blood.
When the blood soldiers of the natal blood are strengthened to a certain extent, they will feed back to the practitioner.
However, if you "reversely practice" the Blood Sword Sutra and directly feed the blood soldiers of the natal blood with your own essence and blood, although the speed of practice will be greatly reduced, it is also a way to find another way. ]
…
[Thirty-fifth year: You continue to feed the blood soldiers of the natal blood with your own essence and blood.
With the great perfection of the Canglong Bailian, the blood and qi in your body are extremely vigorous, and the strength is far beyond that of ordinary people. It is undoubtedly the best nutrient for the blood soldiers of the natal blood, and the feeding effect is far beyond expectations.
"Blood Sword Sutra" breaks through the realm of "small success"! ]
…
[Year 73: You wield the blood blade in your hand, the scarlet wind whistles, the murderous aura is rising, like an evil demon descending to the world.
"Blood Sword Sutra" breaks through the "skilled" realm! ]
…
[Year 125: After years of nourishment from your blood essence, the blood soldier of your life is in tune with your mind, and it is becoming more and more handy to use.
"Blood Sword Sutra" breaks through the "great success" realm! ]
…
[Year 213: You lightly wave the blood blade, and several blood-colored slashes shoot out, instantly splitting the boulder ten feet away into pieces.
Seeing this, the blood lady exclaimed in surprise: This kind of power has completely surpassed the scope of the first volume of the Blood Sword Sutra. ]
[Qi and Blood·Blood Sword Sutra: Perfection]
[Remaining life span: eighty-four years]
"…"
Gu Cheng slowly opened his eyes.
In his dark eyes, two scarlet evil lights flashed and disappeared.
He stretched out his right hand, and the bloody aura in his palm rolled up and condensed into a dark red long knife in an instant.
This bloody knife is about five feet long, and its appearance is very similar to the Imperial Guards' Saber, which is the one in the hands of Jia Qian.
A faint bloody aura lingers on the blade.
Combined with the dark red lines on the blade that seem to have life, it looks even more evil and domineering!
Gu Cheng held the hilt of the knife, and a feeling of blood connection immediately surged into his heart, as if it was an extension of his own arm.
He swung the knife to cut the weeds at his feet.
The sharp blade did not leave any scratches on the weeds.
Then he gently swung it at a nearby piece of gravel.
With a "click", the gravel broke into two pieces, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror!
"Free to send and receive... Oh, what a good knife!"
Gu Cheng carefully looked at the bloody knife in his hand, his eyes full of joy.
This time, he practiced the Blood Sword Sutra in reverse, although it greatly slowed down the speed of practice and perfectly castrated the biggest advantage of this evil skill.
But under the nourishment of his own blood essence.
The power of his lifeblood weapon is far beyond the reach of those evil practitioners who practiced by killing people.
Using this blood sword that is in tune with his mind to perform the Wind and Thunder Sword Art,
it can not only easily withstand the destruction of the wind and thunder, but also increase the power of that style of mystery by another three points!
So much so that Gu Cheng himself was a little skeptical.
This reverse practice of the "Blood Sword Sutra" should be the orthodox practice method of this evil skill.
"But such a non-mainstream practice method, only I, who can spend my life, would do this, right?"
"This is only the first volume of the "Blood Sword Sutra". When I return to Changle County, I must get the second volume back as soon as possible!"
Gu Cheng thought to himself and waved his hand to disperse the blood sword in his hand.
After the Blood Knife Sutra was perfected, he solved the problem of lacking a handy weapon.
The only flaw was.
After all, this Blood Knife Sutra is an evil skill. When it is used, it will cause a lot of bloody wind and murderous aura, which can easily cause unnecessary trouble.
In the future, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is better to use it less and regard it as a hidden trump card.
Or every time you use it, hide your true identity in advance, such as wearing a mask.
"By the way, speaking of masks..."
Gu Cheng's thoughts were flying, and a graceful figure wearing a hooded black robe and a bronze mask suddenly appeared in his mind.
Since he parted with the female demon catcher, he has never heard any news about her.
She took such a big blame for him, and I don't know how she is doing now.
Did the pig demon king on the Black Wind Mountain seek revenge on her afterwards?
