On the day of his spiritual root test, he was found to possess a fifth-grade root. In this lifetime, it would be nearly impossible to break through the Mid Qi Refining stage.

Chapter 81 The Mysterious Curse of the Demonic Embryo (Please read on, please vote!)
A very special power is required during the cultivation process.
Its name is—【Heavenly Demonic Evil Thoughts】!
By chanting the secret incantation at specific times each day, one can draw evil thoughts from the unseen realm of demons to one's body, allowing them to slowly seep into the flesh and transform into a demonic embryo.
The process is extremely dangerous; a single misstep could attract the celestial demons.
At best, it can confuse the mind and drastically change one's character.
In severe cases, it can lead to possession of another's body, which is equivalent to death.
The concept of "heavenly demons" is similar to, but completely different from, inner demons. The source of a cultivator's inner demons is often their own obsessions, which can be traced back to their origin.
The Heavenly Demon is not only formless and difficult to detect, but it is also a special being from outside the realm.
Unless one takes the initiative, it is difficult for a cultivator to be entangled by a Heavenly Demon.
This is only the first step of the [Demon Embryo Profound Origin Secret Incantation]. After cultivating the , the second step is to find a target, the closer the blood relation, the better.
Using his own demonic embryo to plant demonic thoughts, he imitated the process of a celestial demon seizing a body, devouring everything of those of the same bloodline.
Most importantly, this incantation can be used indefinitely.
Even if they are not of the same bloodline, they can still devour others, but there are many more restrictions. For example, it is difficult to cultivate demonic thoughts and completely infiltrate them. In the end, even if they successfully devour someone, they can only get one or two out of ten feedbacks.
Wang Yu already had a suitable target in mind.
My uncle's son, Wang Wu!
His dual spiritual roots already indicate a high level of talent, and it was because of him that he had to travel to Stone Lake City. If he hadn't left the city, he certainly wouldn't have been captured and brought to the Crimson Kite Demon Realm.
The two are closely related by blood, and if he successfully devours the other, he will reap all the benefits. What reason would he have not to do it?
(Note: Wang Yu was unaware of the Shihu City Lord's practice of buying and selling people.)
The current problem is how to obtain this Demon Embryo Profound Origin Secret Incantation. Wang Yu focused on researching this aspect of the classic texts.
Ten days later, a goal was finally set.
"The Duan family of Xiangshan!"
Besides the sect leader's lineage, the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect has three Nascent Soul families: Zhuo, Yu, and Zuoqiu.
The Duan family of Xiangshan is the maternal clan of Su Zhenchuan and is also a renowned top-tier Golden Core family. His mother's younger sister married a Nascent Soul True Lord from the Zuoqiu family as his Daoist partner.
This Nascent Soul True Lord is the master of the fourth peak of the Nine Peaks, the Evil Sword Peak, and is known as the Nine Evil True Lord.
In terms of seniority, Su Zhenchuan should call him uncle.
The "Demon Embryo Mystic Origin Secret Incantation" was originally obtained by the Nine Evil True Lord from ancient ruins, and he generously bestowed it upon his Daoist companions and many concubines.
After all, once you reach the Nascent Soul stage, unless you can master the secret techniques for building a spiritual body, even a Heavenly Spiritual Root can only provide very limited assistance.
Later, it was passed on to the maternal clans of the women. Statistically speaking, Wang Yu had a chance to obtain this secret technique from the Duan family of Xiangshan or Su Zhenchuan.
However, the story recorded in the ancient books is less than five hundred years old, and many people have practiced this technique. There are tens of thousands who have tried, but only four have succeeded.
Two of them perished at the Foundation Establishment stage, one at the Core Formation stage, and only one survived to this day. He was born with mixed spiritual roots and has cultivated to the late Core Formation stage. He is no longer in the sect.
After learning all the information, Wang Yu put down the classic texts and continued to consult relevant materials while pondering how to obtain them.
The number of such secret techniques far exceeded his expectations. He had only read less than one-tenth of the scriptures in the Sutra Recitation Hall, and there should be even more surprises in the remaining nine-tenths.
That day.
Wang Yu suddenly received a message from Bingxuelou saying that Duan Ping had arrived, which snapped him out of his dazed state.
To be honest, we arranged to meet the next day, but it's been almost half a month and he's only just come now. He clearly doesn't take me seriously.
Silently pondering.
His information came from the true disciples under the jurisdiction of Tian Shi Peak. Fatty Duan, who stayed in the stone house area where the spirit slaves lived every day, probably didn't know about this.
And Su Zhenchuan probably won't tell him about this.
He was very confident.
If he were more vengeful, he might still be thinking of giving him a dressing down.
…………
…………
Cold Blood Workshop, Ice and Snow Pavilion.
He moved his facial features to make his expression more vivid and natural, and from a distance, he could see that familiar, broad figure.
"Manager Duan, it's been a long time! You're still as dashing as ever!"
"snort--"
Upon seeing Wang Yu approach with a smile, the short and stout Duan Ping, whose nose was almost parallel to the ceiling, immediately launched into a show of force.
"What's your name again?"
"Hehe, Wang Yu."
He wasn't angry. Based on his deduction, after Steward Liu took the initiative to flee, the Stone House District would be the domain of Fatty Duan and Steward Liu, not to mention splitting the tribute from the spirit slaves.
It's not a problem for Duan Pangzi to take 60% or 70%. He must have received a lot of benefits from Su Zhenchuan during this period, so it's normal for him to be more arrogant than before.
After all, he was in charge of a purse for Su Zhenchuan.
However, he genuinely didn't know that the true disciple was about to emerge from seclusion. He was just a nobody, while the steward Duan who stole his credit was the real big shot.
If arranged in order of retaliation:
Su Zhenchuan > Duan Pangzi > Wang Yu!
Concise and clear.
With Lan Ji present, Wang Yu couldn't be too direct, so he earnestly invited Fatty Duan to chat in a separate room.
Although the other party suspected his motives, they still agreed.
Private room.
"Speak, what is it? If it's not important enough, you can forget about staying in this Ice and Snow Pavilion."
Still typing...
Wang Yu was speechless and choked with emotion. After a pause, he mentioned that the true disciple would be emerging from seclusion next year. His successful formation of the core was a matter of two years ago, and his realm should be stabilizing by now.
As expected, Fatty Duan's reaction was exactly what he had anticipated.
After the initial surprise, my first reaction was fear, followed by disbelief.
"How did you know before me? Where did you get the information?"
"If it were true, Lord Su would have informed me."
Wang Yu narrowed his eyes, sighed, and then gently patted Fatty Duan's shoulder as he approached.
“You and I are essentially from the same social class. Think about it, Lord Su’s uncle is the Nine Evil True Lord. No matter how much that person seeks revenge, he won’t come after you, Lord Su.”
"You and I are ready-made scapegoats. Before we know what the other side is planning, the best course of action is to remain inactive. Once they make a move, handing you over will be the perfect solution."
Duan Ping's face grew paler as he listened, but he quickly retorted with a question.
“I am a member of the Duan family of Xiangshan, and you were the one who came up with the idea. You are the perfect scapegoat!”
Wang Yu smiled.
"Yes, you're right, but I'm not high enough in status. I look like a nobody taking the blame for someone else, which is not acceptable. You are different."
"Manager Duan is nominally related to Su Zhenchuan, so he is a perfect candidate to take the blame. Besides, when the rewards were distributed, you took all the credit."
"I heard it's a full three thousand contribution points, all verifiable records, tsk tsk—"
Wang Yu, who was well-prepared, had a set of rhetoric. When Duan Ping suddenly heard such remarks, and considering that Su Zhenchuan had not mentioned this matter to him, he became more and more flustered.
