Simulation: My family's financial situation is infinitely improved

Chapter 73 [Tianxing Valley and Frost City Fall into the Demonic Path]

It was a dark and windy night.

An Nian, the head of Tianxing Valley, and Shui Wenzhao, the head of Bingshuang City, met in a secret place after disguising themselves to avoid being seen by others.

The decision to jointly seek a chance to turn the situation around was confirmed long ago in previous correspondence.

The two met at this moment to summarize and exchange their recent achievements.

"If we want to change the current situation of our two factions, we must have absolute combat power to defeat Lin Heng and the other Grandmasters of the Cloud Sword Palace."

"But now, all valuable cultivation resources in the entire Lanzhou land are monopolized by the Cloud Sword Palace."

"Our two families can't obtain cultivation resources. Let alone defeating Lin Heng and the Cloud Sword Palace, even our daily lives and the inheritance of our sect are affected. As one grows stronger, the other loses. We are doomed to perish. In order to change this situation, we must develop some new cultivation resources."

An Nian spoke and told the results of his discussions with many great masters of the sect.

Shui Wenzhao nodded in approval.

The results of their discussions in Frost City were similar.

Only by opening up a new track and obtaining the training resources that the Yunjian Palace does not care about can they secretly accumulate strength and become stronger, and change the current cowardly situation.

"The training resource we have chosen is the internal energy of other warriors. We plan to develop a technique that can absorb the internal energy of others to increase our own strength, and thus gain the power to defeat Lin Heng."

An Nian continued.

"Absorbing the inner energy of others is not difficult. Our three martial arts sacred places all have methods to utilize the energy of others to aid in combat, which can save one's own internal energy during battle."

"But this is only a temporary loan. If one completely refines someone else's internal energy to increase one's own power, there will be many disadvantages."

"First, it will lead to impurities in one's own power, making it impossible to break through to a higher realm. Second, it will be easy for the alien internal energy to backfire and shorten one's lifespan. Third, the body's endurance is limited. This kind of skill can only be cultivated to the peak of the Grandmaster level at most, and it cannot help us gain the strength to fight against Lin Heng."

Shui Wenzhao put forward his own views.

The practice of reaching the Grand Master realm is to break the limits of the human body. This cannot be achieved by simply absorbing the internal energy of others.

"I'm aware of these three issues, but that's what we're going to look into next."

An Nian said.

If you can mindlessly absorb other people's skills and use them for your own benefit, you can become stronger mindlessly.

The ancient warriors had already mastered this art, breaking through the heavens and men, shattering the void and ascending to heaven day by day. How could it be their turn to study and discover it now?

Precisely because this is an evil and unorthodox path with many dangers and drawbacks, few people choose to follow it, and there is potential to be tapped.

"The cultivation resource we have chosen in Frost City is essence and blood."

"There are many ferocious beasts in the mountains and oceans, and the blood of many warriors contains enormous power. We plan to research a technique that can directly draw power from blood and use it for our own benefit."

"Besides that, there's another alternative, the art of sexual intercourse. However, we're not too optimistic about this. After all, the most proficient sect in this art, the Lihen Pavilion, hasn't achieved any significant accomplishments. Their strongest practitioner has barely reached the Grandmaster level."

"Besides, it consumes a lot of time and cultivation resources."

Seeing that An Nian had an idea in mind, Shui Wenzhao began to tell him about their plans in Frost City.

"Blood is fine if eaten directly as food, as it can be filtered through the digestive system. Although the conversion efficiency is very low, at least there are no side effects." "But if you directly absorb the power from others' blood and use it for your own benefit, the disadvantages are similar to absorbing others' internal energy. It's easy to drive yourself insane. There are too many difficult problems to solve. From now on, let's exchange results regularly."

An Nian began to evaluate the research direction of Frost City.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh.

They, the dignified leader of a holy place of righteous martial arts, have fallen into such an embarrassing situation.

"Well, it's settled then. Let's first exchange our recent research findings. Perhaps we can draw inferences from one instance to another."

Shui Wenzhao answered.

Afterwards, the two began to exchange the first versions of the evil martial arts techniques recently created by their respective sects, and both gained a lot.

After that, they began to communicate frequently, exchanging results once a month.

It is an extremely rare thing that more than twenty grand masters put all their energy and wisdom into the same thing.

Under the pressure of survival, everyone unleashed their full potential.

With everyone's wisdom gathered, difficulties were solved one after another. In the end, even the research of Tianxing Valley and Frost City merged, intending to develop a magical technique that could plunder all of other people's essence, blood, vitality and internal energy after practicing, and use it to replenish one's own body.

Finally, after two years, it reached perfection.

In a snowy field in the north of Lanzhou Continent, there is a secluded valley.

An Nian, the head of Tianxing Valley, and Shui Wenzhao, the head of Bingshuang City, each brought a fellow grandmaster together. After another exchange, they made the final revision to the martial arts they created, called "Blood Demon Art".

Then, he began to experiment with the exercises.

Grandmaster Feng Yue from Tianxing Valley grabbed a snow wolf nearby, and under the watchful eyes of the other three, he practiced his skills and pressed them on the snow wolf's crown.

Then, a strong blood light burst out from between Feng Yue's fingers and palms.

The snow wolf's plump body quickly shrank in the blood, and in just a few seconds, it became a dried corpse.

It looked like it had been dead and dried by the wind for a long time, leaving only a dull layer of fur wrapped around its bones.

Feng Yue, who was performing magic, now had a much rosier complexion, as if he had taken a tonic, and his aura became much stronger.

"The effect is very good. After refining the essence, qi and blood of this snow wolf, my own essence was directly nourished, and my body became stronger, breaking through the original physical limit."

"Although the improvement is not significant, it is because this snow wolf is too weak. If I can devour the blood and energy of some powerful creatures, my strength will improve rapidly and I can quickly reach the realm of Supreme Grandmaster. Even higher realms are not impossible."

"Of course, it's not without its drawbacks. As expected from the beginning, if the physical strength increases too quickly, the spirit can't keep up, and it's easy for the blood and qi to cloud the mind, leading to a decline in intelligence."

"Besides, after practicing the Blood Demonic Art, my lifespan has been rapidly decreasing. Although I absorbed the essence and blood of the snow wolf to make up for some of my lifespan, overall, the cost is still not enough to cover the cost. Even if I add the lifespan increase from my breakthrough, it still cannot fully make up for the lost lifespan."

"In other words, the faster you practice this Blood Demon Technique, the faster you die."

"And most importantly, we have already deduced this technique to its limit, and there is no possibility of further improvement in the short term."

Feng Yue spoke and described the results of his experiment.
