Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 72: Blood Refining Magic: Arrival at the Gravel Valley

After sorting out the rest of the items, only one copy of "Blood Refining Divine Art" was left.

The pages look pitch black, but when you pick them up, they feel as smooth as a child's skin.

After opening it, there were lines of crooked blood-red words on it.

Xiao Chen could confirm that it was not because the writer's handwriting was ugly.

Instead, the other party just scribbled the contents of the mental method casually, just like a drunk.

These words are written in different sizes, and seem to reveal a strange pattern in their absurdity.

At first, it was distracting and made me not want to continue reading.

But after reading one page, it suddenly becomes very attractive, tempting people to turn to the next page.

Three spells are recorded in it.

They are the "Blood Collection Method" which can extract the essence and blood from the bodies of other cultivators.

The "Blood Drinking Method" accelerates one's own cultivation speed by absorbing the essence and blood of others.

And the "Blood Escape Secret Technique" that burns one's own blood and essence in exchange for explosive speed.

"What the hell is this 'Blood Refining Divine Art'? This is clearly 'Blood Refining Demonic Art'."

Xiao Chen frowned as he watched, "He's always using blood and essence, either harming others or himself. If this isn't magic, then there's no magic in the world."

The effects and costs of these three spells are very powerful.

The "Blood Collection Method" can forcibly extract all the essence and blood from others.

And it is quite efficient, with almost no loss.

But the price is that the monk who is extracted will die on the spot.

The stronger the cultivator, the faster the blood and essence absorbed by the "Blood Drinking Art" will be.

If the difference in cultivation between the two parties is large enough, it can even provide up to ten times the cultivation bonus.

But the price is that long-term use of the "Blood Drinking Technique" will cause the cultivator to gradually become irritable, easily angered, and gradually become insane.

At the same time, this secret technique will gradually overdraw the potential of the cultivator himself, causing the difficulty of breaking through to increase exponentially when facing a major bottleneck.

The "Blood Escape Secret Art" is a rather special technique.

The main function of this secret technique is to burn one's own blood and essence to escape from pursuit when facing a strong enemy.

It also comes at a high cost.

Although it can greatly increase the speed of the monk, its duration is very short.

Moreover, activating the Blood Escape Technique once would consume one-third of the cultivator's blood and essence.

Such a huge loss of essence and blood will inevitably seriously affect the combat effectiveness of the cultivator.

This means that this secret technique should never be used lightly unless it is absolutely necessary.

Once this secret technique is used, the only option is to escape. Before the strength is restored, it will become even weaker.

"Only this 'Blood Escape Secret Technique' seems to have some value."

Xiao Chen directly ruled out the previous two spells, but he felt a little hesitant when facing the "Blood Escape Secret Art".

All spells that consume essence and blood will make breakthroughs difficult.

"The Secret Art of Blood Escape" is naturally no exception.

However, judging from the effectiveness of the technique, this is also an extremely powerful means of saving lives, which can greatly improve one's survivability.

If you encounter an enemy that is difficult to defeat, you may be able to escape with the help of this secret technique.

As for the future cost, that is a matter of the future.

If people are gone, what future can we talk about?

"Let's keep this for now, just in case it comes in handy."

Xiao Chen thought about it carefully and decided to keep this technique secret for the time being and make plans for the future. In fact, according to the requirements of the Lihuo Sect, if a disciple accidentally discovers the magic technique, or obtains the magic technique after killing a demon cultivator,

Either it should be destroyed immediately, or it should be handed over to the sect in a timely manner. It is strictly forbidden to possess magic skills privately.

After Xiao Chen discovered that this was a book of magic, he originally planned to burn it after taking a look at it.

However, the effect of this "Blood Escape Secret Technique" was so tempting that he was reluctant to give it up.

"Put it aside for now. I'll make a decision after I've established my foundation."

Xiao Chen put away his magic skills and started to think about building his foundation again.

Since there might be foundation-building spiritual creatures appearing in Gravel Valley, it's definitely worth a trip.

Inner disciples no longer need to do odd jobs.

However, if you are leaving the sect for a long period of time, you still need to report it.

Xiao Chen left as soon as he said he would, and first went to inform Elder Chen, saying that he was planning to go on a long journey in the near future, and the round trip might take more than one and a half months.

"so long?"

Elder Chen advised with concern: "It's still very chaotic outside. Your most important thing right now is to build your foundation. If it's not a very important matter, it's best not to go."

But the problem is that the foundation-building spiritual object is related to foundation-building.

Xiao Chen smiled, but didn't say what he was going to do.

Elder Chen shook his head and took out a bottle of pills: "Alright, go ahead if you want to. But since you're going on a long journey, take this with you."

"Thank you, Elder." Xiao Chen took it directly without hesitation.

Then he asked curiously, "What kind of medicine is this? I don't think I've seen it before."

Elder Chen replied, "This is a detoxifying pill that can alleviate most common toxins. Keep some with you, just in case."

"If you have nothing to do, take a look at the fighting manual that the sect gave you. It contains more than just fighting techniques."

"I won't go into the rest of the details."

Afterwards, Xiao Chen went to see Shen Siyue again: "Senior Sister, I'm going on a long journey. If Elder Qi asks, just say I'll be back in two months at most."

Shen Siyue first asked, "Have you told Elder Chen about this?"

Xiao Chen nodded: "I've already said that."

Shen Siyue nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Be careful when you go out."

After notifying both sides, he went to the Treasure Pavilion again.

He sold all the extra bits and pieces on his body, mainly items for making talismans and extra magical instruments, at low prices and exchanged them for spirit stones that were easy to carry.

I also purchased a few bottles of fasting pills to use as supplies along the way.

Bigu Pills are also one of the most common pills in the cultivation world. They are cheap and have excellent effects.

Just eat one and you won’t feel hungry all day.

However, the sales volume is not as good as that of the Qi-nourishing Pills, mainly because almost no casual cultivators are willing to buy them.

Even though a bottle of Qigong pills contains thirty pills, it only requires three spirit stones in total.

Calculated based on the price of a single pill, it is the cheapest elixir in the cultivation world.

But everyone still chose to eat. After all, even outer disciples only had a training allowance of three spirit stones a month.

Secondly, ordinary grains do not require any spirit stones and can satisfy your appetite.

However, having said that, it is definitely more convenient to carry the fasting pills when traveling far away.

After everything was ready, Xiao Chen packed up lightly and set off immediately, heading straight for the Gravel Valley.

Traveling at full speed, he arrived at the Gravel Valley ahead of schedule in just half a month.

　Thanks to 'Not OK There' for the reward and support!
