Chapter 596 - Chapter 596: Chapter 318: Memory of the Demon Beast_2 (2/2)

He paused for a moment, seeming to realize something, and asked, “How is that a problem?”

The demon sneered, “If you hadn’t continued to fuse bloodlines after being corroded by demonic qi, I could have helped you extract the demonic qi, but now as you’ve fused with other bloodlines, the demonic qi has completely integrated with your bloodline.”

“If you forcibly extract the demonic qi, it can only draw out all the Xuan-level and King-level bloodlines you’ve fused with. As a result, your strength will plummet to Xuan-level or even Spirit-level.”

“Extracting the bloodline?” Du Qiyuan’s face looked terrible, obviously not expecting such an outcome.

Seeing this, Su Nan’s face darkened as well.

He wasn’t surprised that Du Qiyuan sought the demon’s help to solve the problem of demonic qi corrosion.

In his previous foreknowledge, when Du Qiyuan said that the only way to solve the demonic qi was to rely on a demon beast, he suspected that Du Qiyuan’s visit to the Black Demon Lake was to ask the demon for help with his demonic qi problem. Now he had just received confirmation.

However, he also didn’t expect the consequences of being corroded by demonic qi to be so severe that it required the extraction of the bloodline.

“No wonder no one could solve the problem of bloodlines being corroded by demonic qi. I’m afraid no one ever thought that the corrosion would require the extraction of the bloodline!” Su Nan’s face turned pale.

He had never heard of anyone being able to extract a fused bloodline.

Perhaps the human clan didn’t even have such a secret technique now.

After all, since ancient times, a break in the human clan’s cultivation methods had occurred, and many secret techniques were either unusable or lost.

Moreover, the cultivation method of the human clan in ancient times was not the Bloodline Path, so it’s normal not to have corresponding secret techniques.

Continuing to read on.

The subsequent memories made his face change continuously.

In the memory, the demon said, “Given your current situation, you’re not far from losing control. If you don’t want to lose control now, there is only one way: to become a complete demon beast!”

“Become a complete demon beast?” Upon hearing this, Du Qiyuan’s expression changed.

After contemplating for a long time, he seemed to make up his mind and said, “Alright!”

With that, this memory came to an abrupt end.

“He actually agreed?”

Su Nan was surprised, not expecting the demon’s solution for Du Qiyuan’s demonic qi corruption to be becoming a complete demon beast.

What he didn’t expect either was that Du Qiyuan actually agreed!

“If you can’t beat it, join it? If you can’t solve the problem of demonic qi, become a demon beast?”

Su Nan’s face looked strange, not expecting Du Qiyuan to choose this method to solve the problem of demonic qi. Wasn’t this asking for death?

Upon becoming a demon beast, one’s divine soul and consciousness would be affected and the personality would change drastically. In a blunt way of speaking, the existence after becoming a demon beast is no longer the original self.

“No! Things may not be that simple. Du Qiyuan may have chosen to become a demon beast because he knew about the extinction of the human clan and only by becoming a demon beast could he escape the catastrophe.”

“Moreover, from the memory, it seems that Du Qiyuan is not averse to becoming a demon beast.”

As a demon beast, there are advantages. Firstly, there is no need to worry about the problems of demonic qi anymore. Demonic qi will not only cease to cause damage to oneself, but it will also become the cornerstone for growing stronger.

The second advantage is immortality!

This is the most important point and the fundamental reason why many martial artists want to become demon beasts.

However, becoming a demon beast is not that simple.

The number of demon beasts is fixed at three thousand. Without a demon beast dying, no new demon beast can be born. Ordinary martial artists, even if they want to become demon beasts, are unlikely to succeed; most likely, they will lose control in the end.

Moreover, to become a demon beast, one needs to cultivate demon techniques!

The cultivation of demon techniques requires demonic qi, the dangers of which are beyond imagination. Ordinary people might die from demonic qi corrosion before they even manage to cultivate the demon techniques.

“Could it be that the only way to solve the problem of demonic qi corrosion is to become a demon beast?” Su Nan’s heart sank.

According to the demon’s statement, to solve the problem of demonic qi, one must extract the corroded bloodline. To achieve this, a corresponding secret technique is needed!

Perhaps the demon’s memory contains such a secret technique. As long as the divine soul seed continues to grow, he will be able to obtain it.

However, the issue is that once the bloodline is extracted, one’s strength will be greatly reduced.

You have to know that he had been corroded by the demonic qi from the mortal level. If the bloodline is extracted, this character, Wang Nan, might essentially be ruined!

That is something he is unwilling to accept!

“Do I really have to become a demon beast?” Su Nan’s eyes flickered.
