Chapter 8: Skills

As he retracted his energy from the wolf demon’s body, Tang San immediately sensed a hint of green within his energy. In contrast to the yellow Demonic God Transformation energy he had inherited previously, this touch of green was much fainter, likely owing to the dissipation caused by the death of the third-rank wolf demon.

However, this green energy undeniably existed. Like the yellow energy, it was very obedient and seamlessly integrated into the energy of his Mysterious Heaven Technique. However, it was only a subtle enhancement. Simultaneously, it didn't clash with the yellow energy but let itself be controlled by his Mysterious Heaven Technique. It appeared that his body was subtly and gradually absorbing it.

Things were getting interesting.

Tang San quickly approached the corpse of the other wolf demon and repeated the same procedure. This one had been deceased for a similar amount of time, and the absorbed bloodline power was nearly identical.

After finishing these tasks, he didn't waste any time. He erased his footprints and promptly left, returning to the village.

He chose not to bury the bodies, as Zhu Jiaxin had advised. Zhu Jiaxin had warned him that leaving too many traces could result in being discovered. Tang San held Zhu Jiaxin's words in deep memory.

The Redemption Society was a group dedicated to the survival of humanity. This may be the first good news he had encountered since arriving. It signified that not all humans were apathetic slaves; there was still a force actively working toward the future of humanity.

Regrettably, these individuals also carried the bloodlines of demons and nymphs.

Tang San returned quietly to the village, sharing a wooden house with a dozen other children. Very few of these children could speak fluently, and Tang San typically behaved like them. Once he entered the wooden house, Tang San closed his eyes and curled up in a corner.

For him, tonight had proven to be quite rewarding. The most crucial aspect was gaining a deeper understanding of this world and discovering the existence of a human resistance organization. Another significant achievement was acquiring knowledge about Demonic God Transformation and further understanding the uniqueness of the Mysterious Heaven Technique.

At this moment, his meridians were warm and appeared nourished by the power he had absorbed earlier. He could distinctly sense that his strength seemed to be on the rise. This improvement had nothing to do with his internal energy; it was a physical enhancement.

With barely any food, nutrition was hard to find in this place. Tang San's only recourse was to draw in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth through the Mysterious Heaven Technique to sustain his body. However, this time, it was different. The power of the Demonic God Transformation and the bloodline energy of the two wolf demons nourished his meridians, bones, and organs, resulting in a comprehensive enhancement. The presence of the Mysterious Heaven Technique allowed them to coexist without conflict, making them easier to absorb.

Could it be that the Mysterious Heaven Technique had transformed into a devouring divine technique upon arriving in this world? A technique capable of absorbing the bloodline power of demons and nymphs?

He wondered whether it would have the same effect when they were alive. If it could, that would be genuinely terrifying.

Of course, there were also hidden risks.

Will it be harmful if I absorb too many bloodline types? What if mixing all these random types of energy will cause problems with my cultivation?

To know how these developments would unfold, he needed to monitor the changes in his body following this absorption.

As a human possessing the ability of Demonic God Transformation, he could liberate himself from servitude to the demons and nymphs. He could enter a major city and seek out the Redemption Society.

Tang San quietly formulated some plans in his mind. Once he located the Redemption Society, joining them would undoubtedly facilitate his search for Xiao Wu in her reincarnated form. This organization wasn't small, and it was safe to assume it was present in every major city.

Wind Wolf Town remained unchanged despite the deaths of those few individuals—at least nothing changed in their slave village.

Tang San dedicated seven days to digesting the absorbed Demonic God Transformation energy and the bloodline power of the two wolf demons.

After digestion, his most significant sensation was that he had grown stronger. His body had undeniably become stronger. With his experience in cultivation, he naturally understood that the strength of one's physique was closely tied to the limits of their cultivation. Without a sturdy and resilient physique, it would be impossible to withstand more potent energy.

Following this enhancement, he was confident he could confront a third-order wolf demon head-on.

However, this wasn't his biggest achievement. An even more significant gain was that he retained the abilities of Demonic God Transformation and the wolf demons.

Night fell.

Tang San entered the forest in silence once more.

With narrowed eyes, he suddenly activated the Mysterious Heaven Technique, and his bloodlines began to surge. He lightly tapped the ground with his toes. In an instant, a yellow light burst forth, dramatically increasing his speed, and he resembled a bolt of lightning as he shot forward ten meters.

Using the Mysterious Heaven Technique had depleted a substantial portion of his energy and the rapid burst of speed had taken a toll on his physique. His entire body felt somewhat sore as he stood firmly on the ground.

However, Tang San didn't hesitate. He raised both hands, and a faint green light materialized at the center of his palms. With a swing of his hands, he released two wind blades, each roughly three inches in size. These green wind blades soared five meters before vanishing into the air.

Yes, he had gained these abilities by absorbing those energies.

The newly-discovered devouring ability of the Mysterious Heaven Technique allowed him to acquire the Leopard Flash and Wind Blade from Zhu Jiaxin's Demonic God Transformation and the wolf demons’ bloodline, respectively. Tang San hadn't foreseen this development. fre(e)novelkiss

After absorbing the two bloodline powers, he sensed that these abilities had integrated into his memory. Whenever he wished to use them, they emerged effortlessly. Strangely, his body remained unchanged, unlike the transformation into a beast that occurred with the Demonic God Transformation. Instead, it consumed the energy of his Mysterious Heaven Technique. The energy, once colored in yellow and green, had returned to its original state.

The absorption of the bloodline powers seemed to have given him two new skills. Tang San could now use them at will. However, regardless of how much he practiced, these two skills wouldn't progress.

When he first used these abilities, he noticed they were significantly weaker than when Zhu Jiaxin and the wolf demon had used them. Also, it seemed that these skills were fixed and would not improve. novelbuddy.co(m)

While they did have some value, skills that couldn't be enhanced in terms of power wouldn't substantially impact his growth.

The silver lining was that the abilities he had absorbed didn't clash. Instead, they appeared to undergo a conversion thanks to the Mysterious Heaven Technique.

Overall, this was undoubtedly a good thing. Tang San had some guesses and ideas about the whole process.

There was no denying that he was distinct from the humans in this world, and the Mysterious Heaven Technique was equally exceptional. As he continuously explored the interaction between the Mysterious Heaven Technique and the power system of this world, more experiments would undoubtedly yield more insights.

Learning these two skills was ultimately advantageous. Zhu Jiaxin and the wolf demons weren't particularly formidable. Hence, the absorbed abilities naturally had limited effects. However, what if his Mysterious Heaven Technique gained greater strength in the future and the absorbed Demonic God Transformation power became more potent? The skills that he could earn then would also be more powerful. At the very least, they provide an easier path to enhance his strength. Furthermore, this devouring method would accelerate his cultivation.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this world was truly abundant. Tang San believed that, at his current pace of advancement, by the time he reached the age of twenty, he could reach the ninth order of the Mysterious Heaven Technique. This corresponded to the ninth order in this world's power hierarchy. Naturally, this possibility hinged on the condition that his cultivation proceeded without significant setbacks. His greatest advantage lay in the Mysterious Heaven Technique's exceptional compatibility with the spiritual energy of this world.

Days passed, each one blending into the next. He toiled during the day and devoted himself to cultivation at night. Tang San settled back into his routine, leading an uneventful and routine life.

Two more years went by, and Tang San welcomed his eighth year.

Possibly owing to the absorption of the bloodline power, he had experienced a growth spurt beyond that of regular children. At the age of eight, he had already surpassed the height of most ten-year-olds despite remaining rather slender. His noticeable stature drew attention, resulting in him being assigned more labor.
