193 Purifying the spine (1/2)
Once their bodies have fused, Juntu and Heinz were ready to start training the Blood Demodand Technique.
The principles behind this technique are extremely profound and without amazing talent, it was impossible to even understand them.
The technique seeks to use blood energy to nourish the body enhancing its might and its goal is gradually mutate your constitution into one of a demodand.
Demodands are a type of brutal and very powerful fiend race known for their strong bodies and destructive abilities. They can fight melee battles with Titans on equal ground and rip to pieces normal dragons without a problem.
Despite their might, demodands are one of the least known fiend races, due to their low population and the fact they mostly remain in the Wicked Throne, their home plane.
Like most high-rank techniques, the Blood Demodand Technique uses the power of the laws to work, and in this one, the Law of Blood is essential.
In the minds of Heinz and Juntu, there were six levels of this technique. For the first level, one will need to have the Law of Blood at the 'Potential' level just to start training it and once it was completed, you will obtain a physical power that will allow you to fight with Rank 4 life forms with just your body.
Of course, that was as long your opponent has not activated their Law Avatar, but in that case, you can activate your own and with the addition of your new physical might, your power will soar.
Heinz and Juntu were truly impressed with the technique, especially since to advance, it only requires you to have the Law of Blood at a high level and it doesn't matter if your Rank has not advanced.
Once the third level of the Blood Demodand Technique is completed, your body will go through a qualitative change pushing you one step closer to a true demodand constitution. Your body will have the strength of a Rank 5 life form and unlock very powerful abilities.
Once that happens and since Heinz's law comprehension allows him to fuse with his Law Avatar, he will have the power to fight against Rank 5 life forms at Rank 4 on equal grounds.
What the duo did not know was that there is a seventh level for the technique and achieving it will make you undefeatable under Rank 7 and allow you to at least be able to run from a Being of Laws.
The reason why Zatiel did not give them the entire technique was not a matter of trust. He knows very well that sometimes knowing too much could be extremely dangerous, besides nothing stops him from giving them last level when they become strong enough.
The Blood Demodand Technique is very hard to practice and needs copious amounts of blood energy to work.
Without Juntu, just finishing the first level will have taken Heinz over thirty years. As for the time needed to achieve the third level, hundred or even a couple of thousand of years would have been considered short unless the Cultivator was willing to use the blood of powerful life forms and run the risk of leaving flaws in his demodand constitution.
Zatiel was using the Eye of Life and Creation to analyze Heinz's condition and make sure no problem occurs. He could see the energy that was running through his blood and constantly nurturing his body, and he also saw how it was diminishing at an accelerated rate.
Just training the first level for less than an hour left Heinz exhausted and his face was pale but the strength in his body grew significantly.
”I will remain in the Endless Forest from now on and will make periodical trips to The Ocean of a Thousand Wonders. Contact me when we need to go back to the Beta Heavenly World.” There was a deep fighting intent in Heinz's eyes as he spoke.
Zatiel understood very well the intentions of his brother. He did not only wanted to use the blood of powerful magic creatures for training the Blood Demodand Technique, but also change his battle style and take full advantage of his increased physical might.
When Heinz saw Zatiel nodding, he teleported out of the magic tower and disappeared into the Endless Forest.
Now then that is over, Zatiel can focus on his power. He communicates with Dante's consciousness inside the Elder Brain.
”Is the purifying pool finished?”
”Yes, father. I followed your instructions and since most of the ingredients were already in storage, I was able to complete it while you helped uncle.” Dante uses one of the tendrils of the Elder Brain and pointed at a container filled with a blue liquid in a corner of the floor.
This was one fo the container used to store the natural energy of the world and now, the liquid inside has changed and obtained purification properties.
Zatiel took a white box from his ring and made the Pit Fiend's spine, which was covered by a force field, appear.
Without wasting time, he moves the spine above the container before making the force field disappear.
The moment that happens, an evil aura was released from the spine filling the room and it remains floating in the air.
Its power made it seem as if it was a living creature and not just a piece of a devil's body.
