Chapter 324 - There Are Only Two Types Of Techniques
When Leon recalled the death of his father, he was surrounded by a bit of gloomy air. The memory remained vivid like it had just happened yesterday.
He would never forget, never forgive, and never relent! Kill those who deserve to be killed and spare those who deserve to be spared!
The ungrateful and greedy Divine Kings of the three Divine Regions had once received many favors from his father, and the traitorous subjects who broke their oaths to pursue their own self-interest.
If he were to add anyone else to his to-kill list, it would be his so-called \'best friend,\' Bartram Maganti, the young master of the Maganti family.
The Maganti family was the most powerful family that resided in their Divine Pill Kingdom. They were only slightly inferior to his royal family back in the Divine Realm.
The [Divine Book of Life] was a tightly guarded secret of his father that even he did not know until much later. How the news found its way to the ears of the Divine Kings was beyond him.
Leon was not sure if Bartram Maganti and Maganti family played any part in their downfall, but he was at least confident that Bartram had once plotted against him, making them enemies. It was also much later that he learned Bartram had been infatuated with Aria.
Leon\'s eyes flickered with a sharp look, and the surrounding air became oppressive as he recalled the matters of his past.
Lumi had been excited about entering Weeping Forest, but after seeing Leon like this, she behaved herself and kept very silent.
The oppressive feeling did not last for long before Leon reined it in. He was still far from taking revenge. He had to become much, much stronger.
After the oppressive feeling retracted, Lumi became slightly braver and hesitantly asks, "Leon, Leon, are we going to go through there?"
Lumi pointed at the Weeping Forest with a hint of anticipation. The Weeping Forest was richer in Yin energy, something quite beneficial for spirits like her.
"Yeah, sorry about that. Let us go." Leon nodded after temporarily pushing the gloomy thoughts to the back of his mind.
It was fortunate that he had Lumi to accompany him. Even if he were to be affected by the hallucinogens again, Lumi would be there to rouse him awake.
The hallucinogens do not affect spirits because they did not possess any physical bodies. However, it was hard to say whether this would remain unchanged or not after they become fully corporeal.
Leon swallowed a Poison Cleansing Pill to rid himself of the hallucinogens in his body, he summoned an invisible barrier of Divine Will to protect himself.
After they reached the Weeping Forest, Leon flew up and landed one of the Weeping Trees\' top branches.
Lumi floated along his side with a curious look and asked, "What are we doing up here, Leon?"
"We are going to wait here for a bit. This should be a pretty good spot, right, Lumi?" Leon asked.
The Weeping Tree branches gave off a cold chilly feeling due to the dense amount of Yin energy residing inside.
"Mm! Mm!"
Lumi nodded as she plastered herself to the Weeping Tree and greedily absorbed the Yin energy. However, she did not quite understand the details. Thus, she lifted her head and asked, "But why do we need to wait here?"
"Although we cannot really see through the Black Swamp\'s miasma, this spot still gives us a good view. If anyone or anything approaches the Black Swamp, we would know. There is a good chance that we will be seeing some humans if we wait patiently. They might be able to tell us where the missing people are."
Searching blindly for the missing people did not seem like a good plan.
Since he had discovered some relatively fresh human bones among the mountain of bones in the Black Swamp, it meant that there are still other humans living in this godforsaken land.
If anyone was to know where his adoptive mother and the other missing people went, it would be these people.
"Ah, I see~ I understand now—Wait a minute, doesn\'t this feel like we are hiding up here?"
"That is because we are, Lumi. Sometimes, humans can be even scarier than demons. It would be bad if they turn out to be demon followers instead. But even if they were not demon followers, the possibility of them being hostile to outsiders like us still exists. So, we need to observe the situation first and act accordingly."
"Eh? I never thought of things like that. Why are humans so complicated? Shouldn\'t humans be united against a common enemy like in the stories?"
Lumi\'s brows were cutely knitted together.
"The world ain\'t all sunshine and rainbows, unfortunately." Leon sighed.
He recalled the times he spent accompanying his father on his tours around the mortal kingdoms in the lower star realms back in the Divine Realm. In those places, humans were always waging war against each other.
"With sufficient benefits, humans are willing to betray their own friends and families for their own interest, while desperation will lead them to betray their own kingdoms. As such, it would not be strange to see humans betraying their own race if their lives are at stake."
Leon shook his head.
"We don\'t know what we will be facing until we face it. Take this chance to cultivate and get stronger." Leon said before asking, "Lumi should know how to cultivate, right?"
Lumi nodded vigorously and truthfully answered, "Mm! Mm! Little Big-Chested Sister taught me how to!"
"Little Big Sister?" Leon repeated. He gave Lumi an odd look before asking, "Who is your Little Big Sister?"
Lumi panicked slightly, not knowing how to answer his question. After careful consideration, she replied, "Little Big Sister is… is Little Big Sister."
"That… never mind. Just go cultivate."
Leon decided to just drop the topic. It was not important. However, shortly after Lumi began cultivating, he was quickly stunned.
A little whirlpool was formed as Lumi greedily devoured the Yin energy and refined them all at an incredible rate. It was extraordinarily quick!
Vengeful spirits knew how to cultivate subconsciously when they gained awareness, but it was a different story entirely whether they had a good soul cultivation method to use or not.
Leon had expected Lumi to be using the standard soul cultivation method, but Lumi should be using a very impressive soul cultivation method to cultivate from what he was seeing.
His mind was changed quickly. He was now interested in who this \'Little Big Sister\' Lumi spoke of. He knew that Lumi should not have been in contact with many people since she was always hidden in Lost Isle Alley.
The soul cultivation method could not have been taught by Lumi\'s other personality unless it was actually not another personality but another soul residing in Lumi.
"Ahem, say Lumi, where did this Little Big Sister teach you such an impressive soul cultivation method?" Leon could not help but ask. He was too curious.
"Um, Little Big Sister taught Lumi inside of Leon\'s world."
"Huh?"
Leon was able to draw a conclusion after hearing this much. The one who taught Lumi such a high-grade soul cultivation method was undoubtedly Maya. It must have happened during the short time Lumi stayed inside his Worldspace.
However, he was surprised as much as he was confused. Why was Maya called Little Big Sister?
After a quick peek inside the Worldspace, Leon understood the reason. Maya had transformed into a beautiful mature lady from her usual child form.
He was not aware of what had transpired between them, but having understood that the soul cultivation method came from Maya, Leon no longer found it strange and was even slightly amused.
After some small talk, Leon closed his eyes and began to focus on his own cultivation.
Darkness profound energy was supposedly harmful to the human body, but this did not apply to Leon, thanks to the unique physique from practicing the [Hegemon of Primal Chaos].
If Leon still did not know what the purpose of the [Hegemon of Primal Chaos] technique was at this point, then he would be an idiot.
The [Hegemon of Primal Chaos] is used to forge a God Body and not just any God Body but also a God Body amongst God Bodies. True to its name, complete mastery of this [Hegemon of Primal Chaos] technique would allow him to lord over everything with his physical body alone.
He was still far from reaching that stage, but at the very least, the technique had allowed him greater resisters and affinity to all the elements.
Knowing that Darkness profound energy would not harm him, Leon began devouring Darkness profound energy at a leisure pace.
Having reached the 9-star Ranked Awakener realm, Leon was not sure how to advance further. It would take more than just energy to achieve transcendence. He needed to comprehend a deeper level into the laws, but he also had too many laws to comprehend.
If comprehending a law was all it took to reach transcendence, he would have already broken through to become a Fire Transcendent, upon reaching 9-stars with his current Fire Law\'s comprehension. However, that was not the case.
Leon realized that his path to transcendence was bound to be different from others. But without any solution to the problem, he basically stuck at a bottleneck.
Since it was not possible to advance his Awakening cultivation, Leon shifted his focus to something else.
Leon took out the [Blood Refining Art] manuals he had previously looted from the dead disciples and began to study them in earnest. Perhaps, he could learn something useful.
"There are no evil techniques, only evil cultivators." Leon quietly whispered to himself.
There were only two types of existing techniques in Leon\'s dictionary: the useful ones and the useless ones.
