Chapter 344 Heavenly Destruction Talisman: The Second Realm of the Mind!
"Yes, you're late. The first seven levels of the stone tablet have already been conquered, and the rewards have been taken by others. Only the eighth and ninth levels remain."
"What about the Luo Sheng Blood Fruit? Has anyone obtained it?"
"Not yet. You should be able to get it after breaking through the ninth level of the stone tablet. Did you come here for this treasure?"
"That's right."
Upon hearing this, Yan Ling's eyes showed worry.
"With everyone watching, even if you get it, it will be hard to keep it. A fourth-tier treasure is likely to be attacked by everyone."
"It's alright."
Wang Yu wasn't too worried about this. The Blood Killing Stele appeared in the sixth hall, which meant that there were still three inner halls that hadn't been explored.
He's fast.
If we can obtain the Luo Sheng Blood Fruit, we will have a way to escape.
"By the way, I wanted to ask if you know anything about the Blood God Mind Control Technique, and why this secret technique can lock onto one person."
Yan Ling frowned, guessing what was going on.
It's no secret that Wang Yu participated in the rivalry between the two Zhuo families, and the other side's rapid rise was inseparable from the support of the Zhuo family.
However, she was also an orphan. If it weren't for the words of an ancestor behind her, she wouldn't even be able to hold onto her position as a true disciple, let alone become the personal disciple of the Lord of Cold Blood Mountain.
Therefore, her understanding of the Blood Demon Palace's secret techniques was actually not very deep.
Just as Yan Ling was pondering how to respond to Wang Yu, a blood talisman suddenly descended from the sky, floating down gracefully.
Wang Yu: "..."
Yan Ling: "..."
The talisman was written in ancient demonic script, blood runes. Wang Yu could understand its meaning, so he called it the [Blood God Mind Control Talisman]. It looked as if it had just been made.
at the same time.
Deep within the blood clouds of the Blood Abyss Holy Land, Blood Essence and Blood Spring both looked at the third brother, Blood Axe. The talisman temporarily created by the Nascent Soul's magical power was made by Blood Axe.
He gave a simple, honest smile.
"Didn't you two brothers praise this boy for being intelligent? I'd like to see if he can understand what we mean."
Both of them were speechless, and then the Blood Spring Demon Lord said helplessly.
"Fine, then let's do as my third brother says."
Before the Blood Slaughter Hall, Yan Ling looked around cautiously and said, "Fellow Daoist Wang Yu, this is..."
"No need to overthink it. What you and I need to know will come to us. There's no point in overthinking."
That made sense, but Yan Ling still couldn't help but be curious. This was just too strange! If it were really as she thought, wouldn't that mean the Blood Abyss Holy Land had been monitoring them all along...?
The pressure is immense.
Wang Yu didn't share her thoughts. The Heavenly Destruction Talisman proved his previous guesses and premonitions to be accurate.
The old monsters of the sect are indeed planning an experiment.
This talisman may seem like a gesture of assistance, but it is actually an affirmation of his previous actions; otherwise, where would the goodwill come from?
Just as he was about to use the dispelling talisman, Wang Yu paused.
One should always be wary of others. Although the old monster had no reason to harm him, what if he habitually kept a backup plan? Just like when he was in Guiling City.
He planted a demonic seed in his subordinate Xu Ruozhou, intending to devour him directly after he rebelled.
The chances of this happening are slim, but he did it anyway.
Wang Yu never hesitated to assume the worst about others, let alone an old demon; hiding poison in honey was a basic tactic for him.
Having thought this through, he was no longer in a hurry to use it.
He scanned the talisman inch by inch with his divine sense and found nothing amiss. However, he did see some clues about the principle behind the talisman's effectiveness.
The power of the ancient demonic runes, Blood Runes, is to revitalize blood, giving it abundant vitality and granting it powerful life force and immortality.
But it also brought the "blood" back to life.
This talisman erases this activity; by analogy, the [Blood God Mind Control Technique] may appear to be planted on the heart, but it is very likely rooted in the blood.
Therefore, his repeated attempts to remove his heart did not solve the problem.
As for a higher level, planting the concept of "heart," even if Wang Yu looked down on Zhuo Shouyun, or even if he elevated him to a higher realm, it would still be impossible to accomplish such a thing.
Judging from the power of blood cultivators, the root cause is more likely to lie in blood; we can give it a try.
His method was also very simple and crude.
And so it was.
To Yan Ling's astonishment, Wang Yu scratched several major blood vessels around his body with his fingernail, creating multiple cuts, and then pulled them out.
All the blood was drained instantly, and the person became a dried-up corpse.
It was completely devoid of moisture, revealing its ugly appearance. The Dragon Spine Marrow moved accordingly, generating a large amount of Qi and Blood, which combined with the remaining Yin Blood Secret Power.
In just a few breaths, Wang Yu's blood was regenerated.
This time, most of the runes in his heart disappeared, leaving only broken edges. One more time should be enough.
We need to slow down and wait until we can re-condense three Yin Blood Pills. With all six slots working together, it should be possible in a few days at most.
The extracted blood wasn't wasted either; Wang Yu collected it in a bottle, preparing it for future use in blood sacrifices against the two corpses, and then added another layer of blood sacrifice incantation to enhance control.
Blood can also be used to refine magical artifacts.
Looking at it this way, the effects of the Corpse Demon Secret Technique are evident in every aspect. If it is not used for multiple short-term recoveries, it will damage the source. Using oneself as material is the best way to use it.
at this time.
Yan Ling lowered her slightly parted jaw, licked her dry lips, and carefully spoke.
"Fellow Daoist Wang Yu, you are truly... astonishing!"
"Not bad, just a little bit of good fortune."
As the two chatted casually, the palace deep within the blood clouds couldn't sit still any longer. Blood Axe was furious and smashed the wine jar in front of him into dust with a single slap.
"This brat is actually worried that I'll use dirty tricks on him? That's outrageous!"
Blood Essence and Blood Spring burst into laughter.
"This young man is quite interesting. He's so ruthless to himself. No wonder he was able to crawl out of a pile of corpses."
The pile of dead bodies he mentioned refers to the low-level spirit slaves of each peak.
"Yes, the Demon Embryo Secret Incantation requires a person with this kind of temperament to master it. Excellent! Truly excellent!"
…………
…………
Blood Slaughter Hall.
When Wang Yu and Yan Ling returned, Jiang Mingxin immediately turned her gaze over. Seeing that Yan Ling showed no unusual expression, she breathed a sigh of relief.
He cautiously walked to Wang Yu's side and said with a smile.
“Brother Wang, since you’re already here, why not try the Blood Killing Stone Tablet?”
"This stele has nine levels. Even if the first seven levels have been passed and the rewards have been given, it can still bring a lot of benefits to the cultivators."
"That's exactly what I meant." Wang Yu raised an eyebrow, understanding Jiang Mingxin's meaning; it turned out to be a peacock displaying its tail feathers.
The other party had contacted Yan Ling a long time ago; it was Yan Ling who delivered the letter.
The two have a close relationship, but it's definitely not the kind of relationship between lovers; it's more like they're working together on some kind of business.
Yan Ling is beautiful, tall and with long legs.
Unfortunately, she wasn't voluptuous enough; she wasn't Wang Yu's type. Mature women were more attractive to him—both in terms of figure and personality.
His obsession with cleanliness varies from person to person; as long as someone is beautiful enough, it applies to them.
It can also add a bit of excitement.
Let's get back to the main topic.
The Blood Killing Stele is a typical mental illusion test, and Wang Yu can be said to have a lot of experience in this area.
The path of the mind has been entered, and the first stage has been reached.
It has also forged the [Asura's Killing Intent]!
Ordinary mental illusions could not pose any difficulty for him.
He was determined to obtain the [Luosheng Blood Fruit], the reward for the ninth level of the test.
Of the more than 300 people present, not everyone could make it to the end; most of them were using the earlier challenges to hone their resolve.
Those undergoing the test are protected by the Blood Killing Stone Tablet, and outsiders cannot interfere with them; otherwise, more than three hundred people would not have gathered here, nor would there have been any riots.
Wang Yu walked to the front of the stone tablet.
A large character for "kill" was engraved on the surface, which made Wang Yu's expression strange. He had a feeling similar to that of the bull he had been bullied back then. The inheritance of the killing path basically came from the ancient demons of the desolate ancient plains - [Kill]!
This place was built by seekers of the ancient demon [blood].
The composition of the Yin Shi Venerable is complex, and it is unknown who was bullied. Judging from the results, the process is unknown, but in the end, [Blood] definitely won.
Otherwise, the Blood Abyss would not have been born.
He found an open space, sat down cross-legged, and sank his consciousness into the Blood Killing Stone Tablet. A layer of blood-red light enveloped Wang Yu, and then he disappeared.
Upon seeing this.
Jiang Mingxin then asked Yan Ling.
"Yan Ling, did your brother say something to you?"
Yan Ling glanced at him, a smile playing on her lips.
"You'll know what you need to know, and it's best not to say what you shouldn't know. You'll understand later."
Jiang Mingxin: "..."
There was something he didn't know whether he should say or not.
After Wang Yu immersed his mind in the stone tablet, he officially entered the first mental illusion realm, and the surrounding environment was somewhat familiar to him.
This is the scene of the Prince's Mansion in Shihu City.
His father, mother, and Wang Wu, whom he loathed, all appeared here. In the illusion, their personalities seemed to have changed, and they waved to him in a friendly manner.
A false memory was implanted into him, and Wang Yu's eyes widened, a surge of scarlet killing intent erupting forth, instantly crushing it into a pile of minced meat.
Only then did he smile at his parents.
A moment later.
After reminiscing about the warmth of his childhood, Wang Yu resolutely slaughtered all the living people in the illusion; this test was not particularly difficult.
Given the nature of demonic cultivators, overcoming this obstacle would not be difficult.
But as he passed through, those fragments of illusion poured into his heart, making the central stone island much larger, and vaguely revealing many more illusory figures.
The whispers were so loud that they were hard to hear and impossible to block out, which made Wang Yu feel irritable and restless.
After silently reciting the Heart Sutra once, I gradually calmed down.
The second challenge is the Illusion of Friendship.
Wang Yu fought his way through in a chaotic frenzy, but Yu Tangtang clung to his neck and wouldn't let go. She was as hard as stone, and nothing could sway her.
The third level, the fourth level, the fifth level...
He had experienced almost all the seven emotions and six desires of humankind. As he approached the eighth level, Wang Yu's heart stirred.
A tangible killing intent surged from within his body. His body, sitting calmly before the stone tablet, appeared serene, with only a few wisps of blood mist drifting around it. However, in the mental illusion, everything was completely blood red.
Wang Yu had always used the Lesser Asura Killing Fist to utilize the means of materializing killing intent, but now, after undergoing seven trials, he was able to do so.
Many new insights have emerged in my mind.
Killing intent itself is just an illusory aura, which is materialized through supernatural powers and magic, and then affects the real world, becoming a force that can be touched.
Wang Yu mastered many minor magical abilities formed by manipulating killing intent through the mind and then combining it with magical power.
The core of it is the [Asura Killing Heart] that he forged!
In a mental illusion.
As some of the killing intent flowed out, it manifested as a dense crimson red that spread around the body, forming a terrifying, murderous domain.
Anyone within that range will be subjected to extremely strong divine suppression. Once the string of fear in their hearts snaps, they will become slaves controlled by murderous intent, which is also a type of demon.
Similar to Kim Myo-sun's situation when she was influenced by murderous intent.
As Wang Yu gradually became more familiar with it, he became increasingly adept at controlling the killing intent and blood mist, sometimes transforming it into a beast form and sometimes into a blood hand.
With a single glare, one can transform murderous intent into a deadly sword of the mind.
Suddenly, it pierced through the target!
These minor spells are ineffective against strong enemies of the same level, but they are excellent against weaker opponents, making them a true master of crushing noobs.
certainly.
Most importantly, it made him more adept at controlling his killing intent. In other words, the power of the Little Asura Killing Fist increased dramatically, both on a mental and physical level.
Significant progress has been made in both areas, and the growth in mental and physical strength should not be underestimated.
They reaped all the benefits.
"It seems that beginners in the Path of the Mind can gain more benefits from the Blood Slaughter Stone Tablet..."
From this perspective, it is even closer to the compatibility of the ancient demon [Kill].
That's really strange.
Having experienced the gains, Wang Yu officially entered the eighth level, a level of difficulty that no one had ever broken through before. This mental illusion was the first thing he did upon entering.
Wang Yu felt as if his soul was clouded, and he felt uncomfortable all over.
at the moment.
He had actually reverted to his Spirit Slave form, all his power had vanished, and only a few pitiful wisps of spiritual energy remained within his body, making him incredibly weak.
This illusion layer is clearly impossible to break through with brute force, no wonder so many people are stuck.
As soon as Wang Yu stepped out of the stone house, a guard immediately shouted, "You beast, who let you out! Get back inside!"
Good heavens, a spirit beast?
He didn't even remember being called that before; it was outrageous. The mental illusion was like this: the good got better, and the bad got worse.
It represents a past he finds unbearable to recall deep within his heart.
Sometimes he would think, if things had been different, if he had said it differently, if he had used different words, etc., the outcome might have been better.
This is a common human experience of regret.
But when the time comes, what you think and what you actually do are completely different.
Seeing the cultivator thrusting his spear at him, Wang Yu sidestepped.
With a wave of his hand, an ice sword beheaded the man. It was a strangely familiar feeling. When you were weak, every step you took was a deadly move. If you were not careful when fighting someone, you would die.
Unlike now, where even being dismembered doesn't guarantee survival.
It has an extremely high tolerance for error.
Perhaps it was this mentality that led him to become complacent, arrogant, and even disdainful of Zhuo Shouyun, believing that Zhuo would do whatever Zhuo thought.
Isn't this a manifestation of a clouded mind and a forgotten nature?
His greatest skill... is hiding!
As his thoughts drifted to this point, his clouded mind suddenly shone with light, and Wang Yu felt a surge of joy, as if a blocked river had been cleared, making him feel much more relaxed.
The scene before my eyes disappeared.
The second time it appears is in the scene of Guiling City, where he confronts Jin Miaoshan and shamelessly slaughters Jin Manlou.
This was also a source of worry for him day and night.
That emotion is called fear and hysterical madness!
"I see."
Now that things have come to this, Wang Yu finally understands how to pass the eighth level.
