Chapter 365: Chapter 328: For Free
Tao Yu did not bring all the martial artists along and finally decided to only take the grandmasters and experts like Li Shentong to accelerate their journey and save time.
With over twenty experienced fighters as their core, cooperating with the original team from Changâan, they should have been able to organize, as long as the scene wasnât too messy, at least they could save some people.
But halfway there, they encountered Zhu Yuyan and Wanwan, who had actively sought them out.
âZhu Yuyan greets the Saint Heir.â
Noticing some disarray in Zhu Yuyanâs aura, Tao Yu felt a bit surprised as he grasped her delicate wrist, sensing it for a moment before speaking with a hint of curiosity,
âWith whom did Sect Master Zhu clash?â
âŠ
Then seeing Zhu Yuyan giving a look to Wanwan beside her, who was dressed in white with bare feet, exuding an infinitely pleasant aura, Wanwan bowed and presented Tao Yu with two thin booklets.
The sincere bow gave Tao Yu a good view of her beautiful figure, and he couldnât help but admit that this enchantressâs beauty indeed was exceedingly high, in some ways even more provocative than Shi Feixuan.
However, as he casually took them and looked at the contents, Tao Yuâs face showed surprise,
âDao Heart Demon Seed Technique? Where did you get this from?â
Tao Yu had no idea where this thing could be, he truly had no recollection of it.
âThose from the Evil Extremity Sect have actually been nearby all along. With some efforts, we successfully caught them.â
Zhu Yuyan smiled charmingly, pleasing Tao Yu greatly.
In the original trajectory, the Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique of the Evil Extremity Sect would have been seized by âDemon Marshalâ Zhao Deyan, and slowly the Demon Sect would have morphed into the Demon Palace.
However, because Tao Yu was unaware of the details, he hadnât initially aimed in that direction, so now the unexpected gift from Zhu Yuyan was a pleasant surprise.
The âDao Heart Demon Seed Techniqueâ was also a direct route to Shattered Void!
Setting aside whether he would practice it or if there were conflicts, at least many of the theories inside were worthy of study and consideration.
This was indeed more valuable than the Sword Canon of Mercy.
Yet, during the Great Tang era, the reputation of the Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique was not prominent, far from that of the Sword Canon of Mercy; it was only considered as part of the Demon Strategy, roughly equivalent to one-tenth the fame of the Sword Canon of Mercy.
Otherwise, Zhu Yuyan probably wouldnât have handed it over so readily.
Even Tao Yu wasnât planning to share the Dao Heart Demon Seed with others.
It was too risky for those who hadnât mastered it; he would rather keep it to himself for careful contemplation, perhaps it could open a new direction for the next integration path.
The Longevity Secret had integrated True Yuan; the unique approach of the Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique could potentially integrate the Primordial Spirit!
Still, there was a need for careful consideration; currently, everything had to be based on the Longevity Secret, and the Dao Heart Demon Seed could only serve to extract its essence.
âVery good, very good. Youâve done an excellent job.â
Tao Yu hadnât expected that by merely using the title from the Yin Gui Faction, Zhu Yuyan would proactively bring such a generous gift.
âDoes Sect Master Zhu have any requests?â
Tao Yu easily changed the way he addressed her, compliments cost nothing after all.
âI wish to pass the position of Sect Master onto you, so that the Saint Heir can also have a more legitimate standing.â
Zhu Yuyan was not foolish; rather than making demands, she instead eagerly offered more.
âThisâŠâ
Tao Yu hesitated only for a moment before agreeing outright.
âAlright, we are now headed to Changâan to deal with Shi Shaojianâs matter. If Shi Zhixuan is there, we will take care of that as well. You two shall accompany me.â
âWe will obey the Sect Masterâs decree.â
Zhu Yuyan immediately adapted to her role, bowing as she spoke.
No longer holding the position of Sect Master, Zhu Yuyan removed her veil, revealing a face untouched by the passage of time, looking vibrant and youthful, even more so than Wanwan, who appeared a few years older by comparison.
Her beautiful eyebrows slanted into her temples, her eyes were as black as lacquer, full of spirit, captivating any man with just a glance, in no way inferior to Wanwan beside her.
This left Tao Yu somewhat taken aback.
âWhatâs the meaning of this?â
âIâve suffered some injuries earlier and would like to ask the Sect Master to help heal them. Here is a healing method, please take a look, Sect Master.â
With a touch of coyness on her face, Zhu Yuyan handed Tao Yu another set of techniques.
Tao Yu flipped through and saw some indecent patterns, but in the spirit of learning esoteric practices, he still finished reading them.
Afterward, a strange expression appeared on his face.
âThereâs no need for that. Although I bear the title of Sect Master, I cannot always stay in this world,â he said.
With a little wealth, Tao Yu was quite picky, and Zhu Yuyan was certainly impressive enough to catch his eye.
But if she got too close, Tao Yu would inevitably plant a psychic seed to limit her; he would not hesitate because of any favors received. One could never truly share their heart with members of the Demon Sect.
Thatâs why he offered a reminder.
âYou misunderstand, Sect Master. In this great contest to enter the Abyss, I know what choices I should make,â Zhu Yuyan replied, and then she pulled over Wanyan with her.
âWanyan, with her origin of feminine essence, can offer some modest assistance to the Sect Master.â
Although Wanyan was usually capricious and quirky, she now appeared somewhat bashful, leaving one to wonder how much was genuine.
âWanyan has seen the Sect MasterâŠâ
In fact, after Tao Yu had learned some esoteric practices and undergone Deification, he had already considered taking advantage of Wanyan and Shi Feixuan, and he didnât feel much guilt about it.
But now that they had offered him the âDao Heart Demon Seed Techniqueâ and the position of Sect Master, Tao Yu felt somewhat reluctant to act.
âIsnât she trying to practice with a body of Pure Yin?â
âYou misunderstand, Sect Master. Although the Pure Yin body enhances the Sky Demon Great Technique, itâs not essential. One can only not be with the person they truly love. Wanyan doesnât fancy the Sect Master, and besides, Sect Master, you seem to possess True Yuan vastly surpassing that of the Twin Dragons, which has been actually attracting Wanyanâs Sky Demon Great Technique all along,â Wanyan said with a mischievously playful smile on her stunning face, as if slightly mocking.
However, her words were not well-received.
While Tao Yu knew that their actions were meant to bind him, he also knew that in the style of the Demon Sect, if someone stronger came along to suppress him, they might very well switch sides.
But that wasnât an issue, as his psychic seeds might not guarantee absolute loyalty, but a general level of control was still manageable. He had also learned of a new method of implanting them without resistance from Bai Qingâer and others.
There was plenty of time to gradually make them adapt.
And since they were so keen to offer, he would create a safe environment for themâŠ
âŠ
âThis, itâs as good as two months of arduous cultivation!â
Tao Yu felt his True Yuan had thickened a bit, and his eyes showed a hint of pleasant surprise.
Having practiced some special secret techniques and already having trained, Tao Yu found that normally the efficiency would only improve by about fifty percent during cultivation, not as much as doubling through Acceleration with Yuan Force.
But it didnât consume Yuan Force and also refined oneâs emotional state, so he didnât mind the lesser boost.
He knew that a profound body of Pure Yin could bring significant improvement.
Wanyan had been diligently cultivating the Sky Demon Great Technique with pure proficiency, which was indeed quite rare.
But given the quality of his Longevity True Yuan, a significant boost was unlikely.
To have gained what was equivalent to two months of progress was an unexpected surprise.
âWhat a pity, the first time with the little rich girl I didnât practice at all, otherwise, I couldâve benefited more. Such a wasteâŠâ
Tao Yu felt a pang of regret, wondering why he hadnât received such esoteric practices earlier?
It was fortunate he wasnât any kind of evil spirit, otherwise, by forcefully sweeping through everything, even if the quality wasnât enough, the quantity might compensate, and he could probably still save quite a bit of Yuan Force for Acceleration.
Nevertheless, Tao Yu had always avoided becoming something he dislikedâŠ
But no matter what, he definitely had to implant the psychic seeds.
Tao Yu didnât want to be overconfident that he had subdued the Yin Gui Faction, only to turn around and see them defect to some Pioneer of the Floating City upon reaching their gathering placeâthat would be a real loss.
In the end, they needed corresponding restrictive measures, even if they couldnât be absolutely loyal, there had to be a balance.
And now, with the seeds implanted, they could indeed run the place with their capabilities upon returning to the gathering place. Especially Wanyan, who was destined to be one of the Chosen Ones. By combining the Slaughter Alien with the Demon Strategy, her potential limit might reach the Shattered Void level!
Thinking of the share of profits from the little rich girl, which amounted to a million in income per month without doing anything, if the Dada Company one day reached this scale and didnât have trusted and capable people to manage, it could indeed become troublesome.
Right now, it was just perfectâŠ
