Chapter 13 - 13 Vajra Demon Suppression, Dragon Elephant Wisdom (Thanks to the Alliance Hierarch who disregards everything for the reward)
[You've slain a postnatal realm adult boar demon and obtained 30 demon essences.]
[Detected the boar demon's tusks suitable for sacrifice, please collect.]
[Detected the "Blood Slaughter Saber Technique" suitable for cultivation, please collect.]
Han Zheng's vision was suddenly filled with a series of prompts, causing him to momentarily pause in astonishment.
He wasn't surprised that slaying martial artists granted Qi Blood Essence or that slaying demons provided Demon Essence.
However, he didn't expect that parts of a demon's body could also be used for sacrifices.
For Han Zheng, possessing the Taotie Furnace meant that the demon truly held treasures throughout its body.
He walked over to the demon's corpse and
Postnatal Realm "Vajra Fist" breakthrough requires 100 Hunger Level points.]
Han Zheng frowned slightly.
The Hunger Level points needed for the breakthrough were more than he had anticipated,
especially since the cultivation techniques required nearly twice as much as the martial skills.
"Break through both techniques!"
Fortunately, the rewards from slaying the pig demon were abundant; despite the high consumption, Han Zheng could still afford it.
The Taotie Dragon Pattern on the Taotie Furnace seemed to come to life once again, its gaping mouth writhing before exhaling two spheres of light that merged into Han Zheng's body.
[Postnatal Realm "Iron Elephant Skill" has broken through to Innate Realm "Dragon Elephant Wisdom," starting at 10% Skill Level]
[Postnatal Realm "Vajra Fist" has broken through to Innate Realm "Vajra Demon Suppression Seal," starting at 10% Skill Level]
Sitting on his bed, Han Zheng suddenly had the details of both techniques and even some memories of their practice surface in his mind.
The breakthrough in the Taotie Furnace even came with a 10% initial Skill Level bonus, an unexpected thrill.
10% Skill Level wasn't much, but at least the techniques were usable right after the breakthrough.
Reviewing the content of the techniques in his mind, Han Zheng, who was usually composed, couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise on his face.
The gap between the Innate and Postnatal is as vast as the difference between heaven and earth!
Sure enough, the gap between Innate and Postnatal Cultivation Techniques was just as vast.
Dragon Elephant Wisdom was a powerful protector's technique from the Esoteric Sect, divided into ten levels, each possessing the power of one dragon and one elephant.
Its Inner Strength was fierce and imposing, far more powerful than the Iron Elephant Skill by countless times.
Of course, the power of one dragon was an exaggerated description, but the strength of one elephant, the force of a thousand jun, was certainly within reach.
With his 10% Skill Level, Han Zheng had effectively mastered the first level of Dragon Elephant Wisdom.
If he were to face that pig demon again, he certainly wouldn't be slapped aside so easily.
The Vajra Demon Suppression Seal was just as immensely powerful, originating from the same lineage as Dragon Elephant Wisdom and belonging to the Buddhist Esoteric Sect's Seal Techniques.
The Martial Arts True Intent behind it was "Vajra's Angry Eyes," suppressing demons and subduing evil, with an imposing force unmatched and an explosion of power that was exquisitely refined.
Compared to Vajra Fist, it couldn't even be considered a preliminary form.
Han Zheng now understood why Li Jingzhong's White Ape Extended Arm Fist was so famous in Black Stone County and why all Martial Arts Hall disciples wanted to learn it.
Iron Elephant Skill and Vajra Fist were worth only three hundred taels,
whereas Innate Realm techniques like White Ape Extended Arm Fist couldn't be bought even for three thousand taels.
Han Zheng then took out the "Blood Slaughter Saber Technique" he had found on the pig demon.
He was in need of a saber skill, and now had one ready-made.
However, as he browsed through it, Han Zheng's frown deepened.
There seemed to be something off about this saber technique.
Instead of teaching how to execute the force or unleash Sword Intent, it instructed to gather Evil Qi and even methods to burn Qi Blood Essence.
No matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like the right path. Han Zheng pondered for a moment and decided not to practice it right away, planning to let Li Jingzhong see if there were any other issues first.
This saber technique, by content, was nowhere near as refined as Dragon Elephant Wisdom and Vajra Demon Suppression Seal; it probably wasn't an Innate Level technique, so Han Zheng wasn't worried that Li Jingzhong would have other intentions to snatch it away.
Besides, Li Jingzhong's character had no problems.
Over the years, he had taught thousands of disciples, but even those who were expelled halfway through never spoke poorly of Li Jingzhong.
Glancing at the remaining Hunger Level, there were 80 points left.
Han Zheng contemplated and decided to consume 50 points to continue cultivating in the Taotie Furnace.
The remaining 30 points were to be saved for emergencies, allowing him to enhance his power in critical moments.
