79: Demonic Soul-Entangled Blood Spell
A cup of tea's time passed.
Lu Ming, with his hand forming a Spell, used a secret method from the 'Puppet Control Art' to embed profound runes into the Red-haired Cultivator's body.
To maximize the Red-haired Cultivator's strongest combat power from when he was alive, Lu Ming chose to sacrifice him alive.
Lu Ming felt he was in great pain, and feeling a little unbearable, he closed his eyes.
The hand seals continuously changed, and streams of runes integrated into the body, locking in all his essence Qi.
Finally, the power of his Divine Soul transformed into threads, beginning to entangle around him as the center, seeping into the Red-haired Cultivator's Sea of Consciousness, and outlining a control imprint in his spiritual Sea of Consciousness.
During this period, Lu Ming also took out many spiritual materials and treasures to nourish his Physical Body.
Finally, he took out that seemingly extraordinary cyan feather.
The feather had the special effect of shielding Divine Sense, and combined with a corpse Puppet, it should have a miraculous effect.
With the two combined, as long as it didn't casually make a move, it would be almost impossible to detect any issues.
Thinking of it, Lu Ming immediately acted, covering the feather with Three Yin Nether Fire and beginning to refine it.
However, even with the current intensity of the Three Yin Nether Fire, it still took a full hour to complete the refining.
Only, the feather that originally flowed with a cyan luster had now turned into a liquid with Devilish Qi rising.
Without hesitation, Lu Ming struck it into the Red-haired Cultivator's body.
Subsequently, after a dark red rune imprint condensed in the Red-haired Cultivator's Sea of Consciousness, all the light floating on the surface retracted into it.
When it finally took shape, the Red-haired Cultivator had already undergone a great transformation.
His red hair had already turned into long black hair, and his shriveled body had also become full.
Now, he was a middle-aged man with a resolute face, a firm nose, and a tall, burly physique.
A Clone drilled into it, taking residence in the spiritual imprint within.
Instantly, the Red-haired Cultivator's perspective appeared in Lu Ming's main body's mind.
Moving around, he felt the immense power contained within his body, giving Lu Ming the illusion that he could kill himself with one punch.
He gazed at his creation with burning eyes, extremely satisfied.
"A living sacrificed corpse Puppet is indeed different."
Moreover, it had used many of his spiritual materials and treasures, especially that feather suspected to be of the second rank.
Lu Ming unleashed a Blood Transformation Demonic Blade, and the corpse Puppet resisted it with just its Physical Body.
"In terms of Physical Body strength alone, it already stands unrivaled among Foundation Establishment Cultivators."
After all, Foundation Establishment Cultivators are mostly Spell Cultivators and do not Cultivate their Physical Body; thus, the attacks of ordinary Qi Refining Cultivators pose little threat to them.
The corpse Puppet's Physical Body strength was now like this, but it was only Physical Body strength.
Although its power somewhat exceeded the Qi Refining scope, it had not yet reached the Foundation Establishment level.
Lu Ming also tested the Spell's power, feeling a bit disappointed; it barely maintained at around the Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level.
"But it's already enough."
"I, Zhao Tiancheng, am back!"
Lu Ming controlled the Puppet, hands on hips, and roared to the sky.
Zhao Tiancheng was the Red-haired Cultivator's real name, and the Cultivator who sacrificed himself to severely injure Li Guanqi was his younger brother, Zhao Tianhua.
From his memories, Lu Ming not only obtained what he wanted but also gained many new insights.
First was the long-desired Cultivation Technique; Lu Ming was not mistaken, the other party indeed had a Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique.
It was called the 'Demonic Bloodspring Method,' and it originated from the same source as Lu Ming's 'Devouring Spirit Blood Demon Art.'
It was a superior Cultivation Technique to the 'Devouring Spirit Blood Demon Art,' capable of Cultivating up to Foundation Establishment Perfection.
Its sinister degree was even greater, not only allowing Cultivation with the essence blood of living beings but also enabling the condensation of a Bloodspring.
The Bloodspring was equivalent to a backup energy source, usable not only for the consumption of magic power but also for healing.
This reminded Lu Ming of a certain Old Ancestor from the primordial world.
'The Sea of Blood never dries, the Styx River never dies…'
However, in terms of actual effect, there was a world of difference; they were simply not on the same dimension.
Moreover, Lu Ming, who possessed the golden book, did not care about the consumption of magic power; the depletion of magic power was nonexistent.
But this did not mean that the 'Demonic Bloodspring Method' was useless.
Lu Ming's main body now rarely made a move; he usually walked around as a corpse Puppet Clone.
The corpse Puppet Clone consumed Spirit Stones directly when casting Spells, but once a Bloodspring was condensed, it would become a long-endurance humanoid weapon.
If the 'Demonic Bloodspring Method' made Lu Ming feel that this trip was worthwhile, then the other gain was what delighted Lu Ming the most.
That was the method his younger brother, Zhao Tianhua, used to sacrifice everything and severely injure Li Guanqi.
The second-rank curse Spell, 'Demonic Soul Entangling Blood Silk Curse.'
[Using Lifespan as the guide, reciting the Spell, transforming flesh, blood, bone, and soul into Demonic Fiend, and casting a curse Spell through a medium, ignoring any form of defense, and the curse Spell is irreversible.]
Moreover, the more Lifespan sacrificed, the stronger the power, capable of cursing and killing enemies across a major Realm, but the effect would be significantly weakened.
Outrageous!
It truly was outrageous.
Injuring others by first killing oneself!
This was Lu Ming's first impression of this method.
'Ignoring any form of defense, and the curse Spell is irreversible' was too overbearing.
This meant that once the Spell was cast, the curse Spell could not be interrupted in any way!
Simply put, as long as the 'Demonic Soul Entangling Blood Silk Curse' was used, the opponent might not die, but the caster would definitely die from exhaustion of Lifespan.
Theoretically, the only way to interrupt the casting was to kill the opponent beforehand.
Once fully cast, the opponent could only endure it; either the caster's Lifespan would be exhausted, or they would be annihilated by the evil threads formed by the curse, crushing their Divine Soul!
If Li Guanqi had not been protected by True Person Tianxing at that time, he would have long been a corpse.
Furthermore, the characteristic of cursing enemies across a major Realm made this curse even more terrifying.
Within the same stage, I am invincible; above the same stage, it's a one-for-one trade.
If it weren't for the absolute requirement of exhausting one's Lifespan, this would be a divine skill.
Unfortunately, it's a bit life-consuming.
But then again…
We have many good brothers; we are not short on this thing called life.
"Hehehe…"
After obtaining the 'Demonic Soul Entangling Blood Silk Curse,' Lu Ming suddenly felt invincible.
What Foundation Establishment, what Golden Core? If they really angered him, he would kill them all!
Although the power of cursing across Realms would be weakened, that was based on the premise of limited Lifespan.
He, Lu, was never short on life!
"Sacrifice five hundred years of my brothers' Lifespan, and I refuse to believe I can't kill a Foundation Establishment Cultivator!"
He was getting carried away!
Lu Ming was getting carried away now.
However, he also knew that this was a side effect of regaining his sense of security.
"This is a curse!"
In the past, when using the Karma golden book, if the opponent wasn't on the list, he could do nothing.
But now he had broken free from the shackles.
He could directly self-produce and self-consume, using the lives of his listed enemies to curse them.
Even if they weren't on the list, he could still achieve remote curse-killing through a medium.
In the future, the Clone would walk outside, while the main body would hide behind the scenes.
If he couldn't win, the main body would make a move, and no one would know it was his doing.
"Today is truly a day of great harvest."
Having achieved his goal for this trip, Lu Ming did not linger.
The path to Foundation Establishment had been cleared, and his protective methods were even more overbearing; he could go back and Cultivate in seclusion properly.
Breaking through to Foundation Establishment in one go, he thought, should not be a problem.
"However, if possible, getting a Foundation Establishment Pill would still be safer."
Lu Ming didn't know if failing to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment counted as a negative effect, or if the golden book could transfer it out.
If not, he would have nowhere to cry.
It's better to be steady!
He might not need it, but he must have it.
