My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences-Chapter 640 - Blood Spirit Manipulation Technique
640 Blood Spirit Manipulation Technique
Qin Huai had guessed correctly. The secret behind the cultivation of the blood beasts lay in the foundation of the blood heart technique. After absorbing much knowledge from the Beast King lineage, he understood how to use the blood heart technique to control these creatures.
Raising a finger, he squeezed a drop of blood from it. The blood danced and then took the form of the eight royal symbols: the black tortoise, Qilin, white tiger, and white dragon, among others. This was the blood spirit manipulation technique. Blood beasts were created in the image of these eight royal clans.
“With the blood heart technique, one can control the blood beasts,” Qin Huai realized.
When mastered, every one of his followers could command a blood beast, creating a formidable beast cavalry. In his mind, he pictured this cavalry, unmatched in combat, sweeping through cities with ease.
Others could control these blood beasts too. If their mastery of the blood heart technique was superior, or if the blood they used held special properties, they could override any previous control.
Blood beasts had varying degrees of loyalty based on the controller’s skill. So, if the original controller died, another could easily take command, preventing these powerful beasts from becoming aimless and wasted.
For Qin Huai, with his unique vitality and possession of the invincible Vajra blood, this control seemed tailor-made for him. Though understanding the technique wasn’t hard, the flood of experience he gained was overwhelming, giving him a relentless headache.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, he vanished, only to reappear beside a group of blood beasts. Drops of golden blood flew from his fingers, quickly entering the beasts. Before they could react, they were immobilized, collapsing in heaps. As dust settled, the once-empty eyes of the beasts now looked at Qin Huai with clear fear.
“Controlling them wasn’t that hard,” he mused, surveying the creatures he had so easily subdued.
Having learned how to control the blood beasts, Qin Huai felt more at ease about the threat posed by the Sacred Heart Sect. He realized that, in a way, they were doing the hard work for him. If he faced them head-on, he felt confident he’d be a match for one of their top leaders.
As for the unfortunate martial artists consumed by the Sacred Heart Sect for their blood beasts, it was their destiny. Upon entering the secret realm, everyone knew the risks. Even Qin Huai himself wasn’t exempt from danger.
Yet, he faced a dilemma. If he acted against the Sacred Heart Sect now, he could disrupt their plans, potentially extending his cultivation time from one to three years. If he waited, he’d lose the opportunity to harness the potential of the blood beast cavalry.
Moreover, he wondered if he should try to permanently trap the king realm protector of the Sacred Heart Sect. But acting hastily could alert the enemy, whose reactions were unpredictable.
Deciding it was best to play it safe, Qin Huai chose to focus on his cultivation. What seemed like an extended year or two was a mere moment when compared to the lifespan of experts who could live for half a millennium.
He returned to his mountain base, settling down to meditate and work on his progress to the next level. The blood beasts he’d captured were kept underground, only drawing a small amount of energy from him, making them nearly perfect weapons.
…
Blood Beast Mountain stood as a symbol of the Sacred Heart Sect’s power. It was here that their martial artists congregated and the blood beasts thrived. The Beast King was there, idly entertaining himself with two beautiful female warriors while receiving updates from his subordinates.
“In half a day, the blood beasts continued to hatch without major issues. A few times, due to over-hatching, they crossed paths with the Spirit Stone Road made by the six clans and three sects. This led to some losses among the blood beasts, but overall, the situation remained under control.”
“Pingwang county’s secret realm is getting more popular thanks to the promotion by the sacred cult. Fighters from the sixteen states keep coming in large numbers.”
“While there might not be a lot of high-quality food for them at the visceral prefecture realm, there should be enough for the less advanced martial artists to support the hatching process of the blood beasts.”
