Chapter 752 - Demonic technique: Strong teeth and good appetite! (1/2)
Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
The effects of Song Shuhang ‘dreamland skill’ were truly astounding. While dreaming of someone’s life, he would experience everything they were experiencing and learn from that.
The last time, while he was dreaming of the life of a several hundred years old green onion sprout, he learned to perfection how to stay still from dawn to dusk, exposed to the wind and the sun all day.
Now that he had turned into ‘Cave Lord Dragon’, he was experiencing everything Cave Lord Dragon was experiencing, this sudden enlightenment included.
Anyway, this skill was almost identical to the extraordinary skills granted to all those that had eaten the seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus. The seeds of the Sinful Black Lotus likewise had the capacity to bestow a ‘demonic technique’ to the demons of the Netherworld Realm.
After a short moment, Cave Lord Dragon finished comprehending the demonic technique that the seed of the Sinful Black Lotus had bestowed upon it.
After accepting the imparting of the technique, Cave Lord Dragon understood how to use this ‘demonic technique’ it had learned. This demonic technique was based on the principle of absorption and rebound.
It seemed like a very cool demonic technique. The user could absorb all the magical techniques heading toward it and bounce them back.
It sounded truly cool.
However, there were some limitations to the absorption ability of the ‘demonic technique’. Cave Lord Dragon had to swallow down the incoming magical technique, and then use its mouth to fire it back at the enemy.
For example, if someone used a fireball against Cave Lord Dragon, it could activate its demonic technique and swallow it down, and then use its mouth to fire it back at the enemy.
As such, if the user of this technique had a small mouth, they would have suffered a great loss. Luckily, Cave Lord Dragon’s mouth was big enough.
Aside from the mouth of the user, the ‘demonic technique’ was also limited by the type of magical technique.
If it was an attack of pure spiritual energy like a fireball, tornado, water blast, or lightning attack… Cave Lord Dragon could eat it and send it back just fine.
But if the opposing magical technique had the capacity to summon a meteorite—or unleash any other type of ‘indirect attack’—Cave Lord Dragon’s demonic technique was somewhat useless. After all, it would be unable to swallow down a meteorite and then send it back.
This apparently very powerful ‘demonic technique’ was actually quite weak due to these two limitations.
Song Shuhang felt that one could call this demonic technique, ‘strong teeth and good appet.i.te’. If one didn’t have a set of powerful teeth, they would be unable to make good use of this demonic technique.
Song Shuhang silently observed two seconds of silence for Cave Lord Dragon.

Anyway, it was rather unfortunate that this ‘demonic technique’ was different from cultivation techniques. In fact, it was almost identical to the extraordinary skills that one would obtain after eating the seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus.
After he had been cast as Cave Lord Dragon, Song Shuhang comprehended the principle behind the ‘strong teeth and good appet.i.te’ demonic technique, and came to understand a few things.
However, he would be still unable to display the ‘strong teeth and good appet.i.te’ demonic technique after waking up due to him not having the a.s.sistance of the seed of the Sinful Black Lotus.
The seed of the Sinful Black Lotus was the catalyst that allowed one to display the demonic technique. After eating the lotus seed, Cave Lord Dragon’s teeth underwent some kind of change and became more powerful, which allowed him to directly eat magical techniques and fire them back at his enemies.
Since he didn’t have the seed of the Sinful Black Lotus at hand to help him strengthen his teeth and stomach, Song Shuhang didn’t dare to carelessly swallow down magical techniques even if he knew the principle behind the demonic technique.
The best he could do was to create a similar ‘magical technique’ that was based on the principles behind this demonic technique.
Anyway, this Sinful Black Lotus looks very similar to the Virtuous Golden Lotus of the scholarly faction! In addition, the scholars were collecting the corpses of the demons of the Netherworld… can there really be such a coincidence? Song Shuhang thought to himself.

At sunrise.
Song Shuhang opened his eyes, and finally regained consciousness.
Since he had entered the ‘dreamland’, he was able to sleep very well this time around.
He didn’t have to worry about getting awakened right in the middle of the night due to his mental energy fluctuating and hammering his head.
After waking up, Song Shuhang discovered that he was still lying face-down next to the broken table, with drool flowing out of his mouth.
As for the ❮Righteous Body Tempering Poem❯ he had written until collapsing from exhaustion yesterday, it had disappeared without traces… which was actually a good thing. It meant that the ❮Righteous Body Tempering Poem❯ he had written yesterday for the first time was completely correct!
Only if the ❮Righteous Body Tempering Poem❯ was written down in the correct way would it transform into a burst of powerful righteous energy and flow back to Song Shuhang’s body, greatly strengthening his const.i.tution.
Song Shuhang laughed, and got up.
“Eh?” While he was getting up, Song Shuhang felt that his body was as light as a swallow. When he gently pushed his palms against the ground, he felt as though he was going to float.
This feeling was very comfortable. Song Shuhang knew that it was just a misconception born from the fact that his const.i.tution had greatly strengthened overnight.
The benefits he had gotten after practicing the ❮Scholarly Indestructible Body of the Buddha❯ yesterday had been truly incredible.
Song Shuhang put away the ‘Heaven and Earth Wors.h.i.+pping Brush’, and jumped around in the room, practicing one round of the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯ while he was at it.
He felt very relaxed at this time.
In addition, while he was practicing, Song Shuhang discovered that pale ‘moonlight’ had surfaced on his body. From the looks of it, his const.i.tution had strengthened by a notch again.
