- Chapter 51 (2/2)

A candidate was startled once again.

Although cultivating Soul Tempering Technique wasn’t as risky as Corpse Seizing Technique, the requirement for one’s natural endowment was very high, exceeding an ordinary level. The most basic condition for cultivating this evil technique was one must have the soul endurance that was a thousand times stronger than ordinary people.

It was hard to imagine that the young man in a beast-like armour and with short beard was in fact an expert who cultivated Soul Tempering Technique.

As a deacon brought the crystal ball in front of Lu Zi Qiao, he let out an arrogant cold humph.

“I don’t need any verification from the crystal ball! I will use Soul Tempering Art right here. So that you all will know instantly that I’m not lying. Soul Tempering Streamer, out!”

Lu Zi Qiao patted his storage pouch to summon a black soul streamer. He casted a spell and thousands of Level Ten Vein Opening souls rushed out of the streamer.

Thousands of Level Ten Vein Opening beings? What magical treasure had Lu Clan given Lu Zi Qiao? No one would know how many people they had killed in order to accumulate this much souls.

Lu Zi Qiao was merely Level Four Vein Opening cultivator but his spirit sense was as strong as the spirit sense of a Harmonious Spirit cultivator. Adding his powerful spirit sense and Soul Tempering Streamer together, he could fight a Harmonious Spirit expert without a problem.

He was very arrogant in front of the beacon who was about to give him the crystal ball for him to touch just now. But then Bai Xiu didn’t feel offended. She felt slightly terrified instead. She was scared by a Level Four Vein Opening cultivator.

According to rumours, Lu Clan in the north of Yue Country was full of mad devils. It had just proved that the statement was true.

Ning Fan’s brows twitched. He figured that this young man was a genius in evil cultivation for having such powerful a spirit sense.

“Such a strong Soul Tempering Art. Naturally, it proves that the young gentleman is telling the truth. Next, Xuan Zou.”

The verification continued. There was no one in the next hundred candidates who was as monstrous as Li Zhi Huan and Lu Zi Qiao.

Aside from the fact of identifying another ten spies, no other eye-catching thing occurred.

“Next, Ning Fan.”

Bai Xiu finally reached Ning Fan. In that moment, those Harmonious Spirit elders that were hidden in the dark sparkled attentively.

They had fixed their eyes on Ning Fan but they didn’t know what evil cultivation technique he was practicing and the property of his cultivation. They figured that he would have a bright future if he followed any of them.

“I hope that he is cultivating fire property technique. I can see it from his body that there is a stream of fiery energy within him. I should be right about this.” An elder in red robe muttered.

“Maybe not. This young man must be cultivating water property techniques. I can sense a chilling coldness in his Qi.” Another belle in white dress said flatly.

‘All of you are wrong. This man cultivates ice property techniques.” Yan Zhuiyun rebutted their points in his heart silently.

He could remember how rapid Ning Fan’s icy light was. He was an Intermediate Harmonious Spirit with ice property soul power. Thus, Ning Fan was undoubtedly a heavenly soul cultivator of ice soul vein.

As the others were busy predicting the outcome, Ning Fan was in his calm composure. He gently opened his mouth and said out something unbelievable.

“Ning Fan, from Seven Apricot City in the north of Yue Country. Cultivation technique: Dual Cultivation.”

The news of the old devil accepting a new disciple wasn’t spread to Sinister Sparrow Sect. Only Sinister Sparrow himself and a few Gold Core experts knew about this. As such, these Harmonious Spirit elders wouldn’t know the connection between Ning Fan and the old devil. They had viewed him as a beginner on evil cultivation.

Nonetheless, the thing that startled them the most was his cultivation technique. It was actually the most impudent Dual Cultivation Evil Technique.

In Dual Cultivation Evil Technique, aside from the heaven defying Yin Yang Transformation, it was all about the Plucking Art. No cultivator who cultivated this technique was not an obscene devil who deflowered virgins. A lascivious devil and a murderous devil were both considered devils but lascivious devils’ impression of people was entirely different.

The devils who cultivated Dual Cultivation had superficial magical power and there were very few exceptions who reached Gold Core realm. The Plucking Art could quicken the pace into the early realms. This was because the cultivator was seizing the cultivation grade from the girl, it didn’t belong to the cultivator of the art itself.

Generally, when they reached Gold Core realm, the time interval after a plucking process would be unusually long because they needed to spend time fortifying, tamping and condensing their magical power. Otherwise, the unsolidified magical power would severely affect their advancement.

All Harmonious Spirit elders frowned. They never thought that the candidate whom they placed their hope was cultivating such an obscene technique. Aside from the unpredictable future that this technique would lead to, it wasn’t pleasant to tell someone that their disciple was cultivating such a technique.

“It’s a pity. I don’t think I want him anymore. I think I will leave him for Elder Chu.”

“Hehe. I don’t dare to bring a disciple who cultivates Dual Cultivation by my side. If I am slightly careless, I might be ‘eaten.’

Those Harmonious Spirit elders who were initially fond of Ning Fan had expressed their disapproval, including Yan Zhanyun who was knitting his eyebrows.

“Not possible. I strongly believe that Ning Fan had gotten his magical strength through tempering. It doesn’t look like it was acquired from Dual Cultivation.”

While many were still feeling unpleasant about Ning Fan’s cultivation, a candidate was staring at Ning Fan strangely. The female groups on the other side automatically retreated to maintain a distance with him, fearing that he would take advantage of them.

‘What a lascivious thief! But he has a good-looking face. So he is using his face to commit those obscene crimes.’

Bai Xiu’s gaze turned cold. She was most disgusted by lascivious devils. However, there was no rule in an evil sect that refused accepting lascivious devils. As such, she couldn’t deny his discipleship solely because of his cultivation technique.

“Dual Cultivation huh? Let’s verify it.”

A deacon brought the crystal ball towards Ning Fan with the same strange look. As for Ning Fan, he pretended that he saw nothing. He had anticipated that Dual Cultivation would cause many of them to roll their eyes.

Although Sinister Sparrow Sect was an evil sect, it was still many times greater than All Pleasure Sect. Although the devils in this sect was ruthless in murdering, they were a sect with rationale.

Ning Fan gasp a long breath as his palm placed on the crystal ball. He circulated Yin Yang Transformation that wrapped the crystal ball with brilliant green light to test the crystal ball. The green light then turned into countless thin lines of blood. It suddenly grew so bright that the crystal ball crushed.

The crystal ball had been broken! It wasn’t because his magical power was too great but his cultivation technique and grade had gone beyond the range the crystal ball could read.

“What is this kid cultivating?”

Countless of experts were shocked, leaving their mouths open. Their disdain towards Ning Fan had turned into avidity.

Despite the fact that Dual Cultivation Technique was deplorable, it wasn’t a bad thing to cultivate it if it was highly powerful.

Ning Fan frowned when he sensed all of them had grown enthusiastic about his cultivation technique. It seemed that his Yin Yang Transformation had drawn much attention. In fact, this was unavoidable because of the verification procedure in Sinister Sparrow Sect. There was no way he could hide his Yin Yang Transformation.

Even if Ning Fan tried to avoid attention, he still had to face it if trouble found him. If someone had targeted his cultivation technique and wanted to seize it, he would certainly send the person to hell with his Separation Slayer.

“Alright. You can return to your group.”

Bai Xiu darted Ning Fan a glance. She had also changed her disdainful look towards him into fear.

‘While in Demon Sinister Forest, I will become the guardian deacon to protect these new disciples. Will this Ning Fan try to think dirty about me? He has a very powerful cultivation technique. What if…I fall into his evil hands?’

This girl was overthinking. How could Ning Fan target her?!
