338: Demon Blood

Li Qi’s body trembled, and a powerful force swept towards the drop of Demonic Blood, quickly forcing it out of his body.

He raised his hand, and a drop of purple Demonic Blood appeared in his palm. Li Qi examined it carefully.

“Interesting…”

This drop of purple Demonic Blood wiggled slightly, as if it still possessed life, and an aura even stronger and purer than that of a Otherworldly Slave emanated from the blood drop.

If one were to look closely into this wiggling Demonic Blood… one could even see tiny Demonic Runes flashing within it!

This scene felt incredibly familiar to Li Qi; he seemed to have thought of something.

At the same time, System prompts continuously flashed before his eyes.

“Discoverable Cultivation Technique found!”

“Cultivation Technique being recorded…”

“Recording…”

“Recording…”

Li Qi suddenly understood.

He wondered why he had such a strange sense of déjà vu just now, and why the scene felt so familiar… as if he had seen it somewhere before.

It turned out that when he was still in the Lower Realm, he had obtained a remnant bone of the Phoenix King. Tiny runes had also appeared on that remnant bone, and at that time, the System had recorded a Nine Revolutions Nirvana Sutra from it!

Now, this drop of Demonic Blood was just like the Phoenix King’s remnant bone back then; the System had also detected traces of a Cultivation Technique within the Demonic Blood and was currently scanning and recording the Cultivation Technique within it.

“I never expected… such a gain?!”

Li Qi exclaimed, his face showing delight.

And he began to anticipate what kind of Cultivation Technique the System could record from this single drop of Demonic Blood.

However, this recording process was unusually long. Half an hour had almost passed, and the recording was still not finished. The Sword Soul beside him tentatively asked, “Li Qi… are you alright?”

Li Qi looked at the Sword Soul and smiled faintly, “Of course, I’m better than ever now.”

After confirming that Li Qi had not undergone Possession by the Demonic Demon, the Sword Soul breathed a sigh of relief, then he asked curiously, “Li Qi, what happened to that Demonic Demon? Did he escape or…?”

“I killed him,” Li Qi said with a faint smile, revealing his pale teeth, and the Sword Soul was startled, looking at Li Qi with disbelief.

In the distant past, the Sword Soul had fought against these Demonic Demons and knew how powerful they were, but he had not expected this Demonic Demon to be so easily killed by Li Qi.

Although the entire incident was thrilling but ultimately without danger, Li Qi himself knew very well that there was a significant element of luck involved.

The Demonic Demon was very strong, providing Li Qi with a full 30 million potential points after being killed, whereas he only obtained 10 million potential points for killing a Harmony Realm Otherworldly Slave.

What did this indicate?

It indicated that the Demonic Demon’s strength was even greater than that of a Harmony Realm existence!

As far as Li Qi knew, above the Harmony Realm… was the profound Samsara Realm!

Existences of that Realm had already transcended the mortal world, and their true appearance was rarely seen by ordinary people.

And the power of Samsara Realm existences… far exceeded the imagination of Harmony Realm experts!

Whether that Demonic Demon had entered the Samsara Realm, Li Qi couldn't say for sure, but even if he hadn’t, he wasn't far off.

Normally, it would be difficult for Li Qi to contend with this Demonic Demon. If they had fought normally, Li Qi might have suffered a loss.

But he never expected… this Demonic Demon wanted to play some tricks!

He wanted to invade Li Qi’s Physical Body, obliterate Li Qi’s Divine Soul, and torment Li Qi!

But circumstances are unpredictable. Li Qi didn’t suffer any torment, but that Demonic Demon suffered greatly… he was refined to death!

There was a large element of luck in this.

If he encountered other Demonic Demons next time and they didn't play tricks with Li Qi, then they wouldn't be so easy to deal with.

“This won’t be easy…”

Li Qi lightly pinched his chin, pondering.

During this period, he had not only killed many Otherworldly Slaves but also killed a Demonic Demon, so the other Demonic Demons must hate him to the bone.

The animosity between them was deep, leading to an unending conflict!

It was foreseeable that even if Li Qi no longer sought out these guys, Otherworldly Slaves and Demonic Demons would continuously come knocking, vowing to kill Li Qi.

If it were Otherworldly Slaves, it would be fine; Li Qi could destroy them with a flick of his finger. But if multiple Demonic Demons came knocking… it might not be so easy to handle.

“I need to find a way…”

Li Qi looked at the stone cauldron and blood pool in front of him, raised his hand, and unleashed a flame that enveloped the stone cauldron.

Crimson Flame Eight Trigrams!

The entire underground cave was illuminated brightly by the surging flames, and terrifying heat waves continuously spread outwards.

Under the continuous scorching of the flames, the fresh blood in the stone cauldron quickly dried up, solidified, and turned into chunks of black charcoal at the bottom of the stone cauldron.

And the stone cauldron also cracked and shattered under the intense heat of the flames… finally turning into a pile of stone debris.

After thoroughly destroying this Rebirth Blood Pool, the System’s recording also ended.

“Recording complete!”

“You have obtained Cultivation Technique… Demon Soul Sacred Heart Art!”
