Chapter 317: Killing and Seizing Spirits (Part 3)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

There are people who remain calm in the face of danger, but even those individuals, while composed internally, may unconsciously quicken their pace as the deadline approaches.

Cultivation is not something you can speed up just because you want to. Sometimes you can do it, and sometimes you can’t. Even if you have some understanding, when time is running out, those small hints of insight can dissipate, making it difficult to grasp.

After reading the manual, Chen Fei remained remarkably calm, perhaps because he had gained some insights. The martial hall’s leader, however, was not about to let Chen Fei have his way; he was determined to be a thorn in his side.

“We have plenty of time; no need to rush,” Chen Fei said with a light smile when he looked up at the martial hall’s leader.

“Oh, really? Then show me quickly!” The martial hall’s leader sneered outright. Practicing the Slaughter Spirit Technique in just two hours made Chen Fei’s claim that they had plenty of time seem laughable. People could be arrogant, but the kind of arrogance Chen Fei displayed was nothing but amusing in the eyes of the martial hall’s leader.

The martial hall’s leader was looking forward to seeing how Chen Fei would behave after offering up his Yang Shou later. He wondered if Chen Fei would still be as stubborn and arrogant.

“Please instruct me!” Chen Fei’s right hand moved, and a pole dropped into his hand. A radiance shone from one end of the pole, and it transformed into the Qianyuan Sword.

Chen Fei held the Qianyuan Sword and took a step forward, bringing the sword down in a powerful strike.

“Hahaha!”

Upon witnessing this sword strike, the martial hall’s leader burst into unrestrained laughter. Chen Fei’s initially composed expression had him somewhat worried at first, thinking that Chen Fei might have truly comprehended something extraordinary.

Even though it was highly improbable to learn the Slaughter Spirit Technique in such a short time, there was still a slight fear of unexpected surprises. However, now it was evident that Chen Fei’s strike had nothing to do with the Slaughter Spirit Technique.

With this kind of sword strike, even if Chen Fei practiced for a year, he wouldn’t make the slightest progress toward comprehending the Slaughter Spirit Technique.

“Hahaha!”

Others within the martial hall, seeing this, joined in the laughter with raucous and grating voices that felt like they were drilling into your brain, making one wish to cover their mouths.

“Not bad, please continue!” The martial hall’s leader mocked Chen Fei with a feigned encouragement.

Chen Fei remained silent, as comprehension related to the Slaughter Spirit Technique resonated in his sea of consciousness. At the same time, he fully understood the intricacies of this technique.

[Cultivation Technique: Slaughter Spirit Technique – Entry Level (1/90000)]

The amount of experience required to master the Slaughter Spirit Technique was astonishingly high, and the experience needed for the subsequent stages of proficiency and mastery was beyond imagination.

If it were anyone else practicing this technique through conventional means, even with a complete manual, the time it would take to cultivate would be dishearteningly long.

However, from another perspective, this Slaughter Spirit Technique was worth investing such an extensive amount of time for comprehension and cultivation.

Slaughter – it was also about seizing spirits!

The essence of creatures slain by the Slaughter Spirit Technique would be forcibly taken away. In simpler terms, this technique treated other living beings as if they were pills.

Killing strange beings, demonic beasts, and even people could yield spiritual essence, fueling one’s own cultivation. The more you fought and killed, the stronger you became.

Compared to the tedious process of self-cultivation, the Slaughter Spirit Technique was like an accelerator. If you were strong enough, you could grow stronger as you continued to kill.

A demonic technique, a technique that participated in the cycle of life!

However, the Slaughter Spirit Technique was incomplete. When using it to kill living beings, the harvested spiritual essence contained impurities and scattered spiritual imprints.

Directly consuming these spiritual essences, in small quantities, was manageable. However, in larger quantities, it could drive the cultivator insane before they saw any increase in their cultivation.

Furthermore, these impure spiritual essences were not particularly beneficial for opening the next acupoint. They could potentially hinder the process or become a vulnerability for the cultivator.

There must be a method to purify these spiritual essences. The complete technique likely included a complementary method; otherwise, the Slaughter Spirit Technique would be rather underwhelming.

“Ah!”

Chen Fei opened his eyes and couldn’t help but let out a sigh. The fact that this technique wasn’t complete left him feeling regretful.

“Giving up so soon?” Seeing Chen Fei’s sigh, the martial hall’s leader smirked coldly. Where had all that arrogance from earlier gone?

“Do you have the complete technique?” Chen Fei asked, feeling that learning just one move of the Slaughter Spirit Technique was too painful.

“Hahaha, do you expect me to share the complete manual with you?” The martial hall’s leader burst into laughter, finding the idea of Chen Fei wanting him to reveal the entire manual utterly laughable, even absurd.

Chen Fei furrowed his brows. He shook his head, ignoring the grating laughter around him. Activating the Slaughter Spirit Technique, he raised the Qianyuan Sword high and swung it forward.

“Hmm!”

A rippie vibrated in front of the Qianyuan Sword’s blade. The entry-level Slaughter Spirit Technique might not have outstanding power, but it was still the Slaughter Spirit Technique.

The martial hall’s leader’s laughter abruptly stopped. It seemed as if, whether it was him or the entire martial hall, all the voices vanished in an instant. Everyone stared fixedly at the Qianyuan Sword, their attention focused on that ripple.

The martial hall’s leader stared at the Qianyuan Sword, and even his rigid gaze turned towards Chen Fei. His expression was filled with astonishment, as if his eyes were about to pop out of his sockets.

One moment, the previous strike had seemingly nothing to do with the Slaughter Spirit Technique, but with the next strike, Chen Fei had already mastered the entry level of the technique. It was like an illusion that was almost too unbelievable to be true.

The martial hall’s leader had mastery over the Slaughter Spirit Technique himself, so he knew it well. What Chen Fei had just displayed was indeed the Slaughter Spirit Technique. It wasn’t an illusion; everything was real..
