Chapter 238: Chapter 236 “Demon Slaying Technique

As Yang Qiang read aloud, lines of text appeared on Yang Genshuo’s screen.

[“5211 years ago, the Demon Clan was still active on the Spirit Miao Continent. There was a clear territorial division between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan. However, humans were weak, and the demons often snatched various spirit plants from human cultivators. Some demons even preyed on humans. The relationship between humans and demons reached an all-time low in history…”]

[“Located on the borders of human territories, the Immortal Clans were in the most danger. The accumulated grievances between the human and demon races were about to erupt, and these peripheral Immortal Clans faced extremely harsh conditions, bearing a tremendous amount of pressure. Everyone knew that once war broke out, they would be the first to be obliterated as cannon fodder, so these border Immortal Clans had to find a way to save themselves…”]

“Eh? This is interesting. 5211 years ago, the Demon Clan was still active on the Spirit Miao Continent. They must be sealed away soon; a significant event must have occurred in these few hundred years—the emergence of a great power from the humans.”

Such history could only be glimpsed through vague fragments in the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect, where it is roughly known that 5000 years ago the Demon Clan was sealed in the Demon Realm… Such things were said because the founder of the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect had not yet been born 5000 years ago.

Only the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, which had existed for countless years and witnessed numerous major events on the Spirit Miao Continent, held such detailed records.

...

The records Yang Qiang found were not about that earth-shattering, ghost-weeping great war between humans and demons, but rather the story of several border Immortal Clans. Yang Genshuo continued to listen to Yang Qiang’s narration.

[“Constant friction with the Demon Clan allowed these border Immortal Clans to gain a deep understanding of the abilities and habits of demons. Demon Energy was the source of the demons’ power; among them, a great power proposed to unite the strength of their nine Immortal Clans to develop a set of Cultivation Techniques specifically designed to counteract Demon Energy, enabling their Family’s disciples to slay demons beyond their own levels…”]

[“Years later, a Cultivation Technique called the ‘Demon Slaying Technique’ emerged. All disciples of the nine great Immortal Clans switched to cultivating the ‘Demon Slaying Technique.’ After efforts across many generations, they created various spells targeted at different types of demons…”]

[“When the longstanding grudges between humans and demons finally erupted, the nine great Immortal Clans relied on the ‘Demon Slaying Technique’ to decimate the demons in battle, becoming the bane of demons on the battlefield. All demons would flee at the mere sight of the disciples of the nine great Immortal Clans. The creator of the ‘Demon Slaying Technique’ eventually achieved greatness, earning the title of Annihilating Sage. The demons suffered a crushing defeat…”]

[“At that time, the Human Clan intended to completely exterminate the Demon Clan. However, the Annihilating Sage, who had studied demons for many years, thought otherwise. He believed there were good demons as well, and that exterminating an entire race would be an enormous sin. After much deliberation, the Annihilating Sage, along with many great powers of the Human Clan, laid down a barrier to seal the demons in the Demon Realm, forever separating them from the humans… never to meet again.”]

[“Later, as the Demon Clan disappeared, the ‘Demon Slaying Technique’ gradually fell out of practice and vanished into the annals of history…”]

This piece of history is about the nine great border Immortal Clans of that time, and the Annihilating Sage who had laid down the barrier.

Of course, the most important thing is the ‘Demon Slaying Technique’!

The Heavenly Mechanism Sect not only preserved history but also included the set of Cultivation Techniques that had been developed specifically for the Demon Clan!

“Good, good, good! With this kind of technique, the Danai Dynasty will have the means to match wits with the Demon Clan.”

Finally, Yang Qiang stumbled upon truly useful scriptures!

[Manifestation: Secret Language]

“Qiang’er, take note of this ‘Demon Slaying Technique’ and show it to me.”

“Okay!”

With [Manifestation: Secret Language], although it consumes more Incense Fire Value—3 Incense per minute—it allows for a mental conversation with descendants, which is very efficient and safe from eavesdropping.

Moreover… this form of mental conversation makes it easier to transfer information; images and text from Yang Qiang’s mind can now be directly displayed.

If it was just text before, now both text and images can be transmitted.

@@novelbin@@

This advanced Immortal Cultivation Skill is passed down with both text and various diagrams; without these illustrations of technique operation, it would be challenging to practice.

Yang Qiang, with a wave of his little hand, sent the historical scriptures back into the vast, star-like shelves, just as he was about to use the Divine Travel Technique to find the ‘Demon Slaying Technique,’ the doors of the Void Palace opened…

Lingji Zi and Yuheng Zi had arrived.

Seeing Yang Qiang cultivating just as usual, the two smiled.

“Brother, Yang Qiang not only meets the requirements of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in temperament, but his heart for the Dao is also extremely steadfast. It truly was the right choice for our Uncle Xing He to recommend him as a disciple.”

“Yes… His Family’s karma is enormous. The future is exceptionally bright, yet fraught with extreme danger. This child, being untainted by his Family’s karma, will be able to preserve himself in the future and will also honor the trust his father placed in us.”

The two smiled as they walked over. Yang Qiang hurriedly picked up a book to look at.

“Disciple, how has your Cultivation been these past six months? How many volumes from the archives have you been able to review?”

“Disciple is slow-witted, I’ve only just reached 1000…”

“Hmm, although you are not a genius, you still have above-average aptitude. After today’s cultivation, go rest. In three days, follow us out on a trip.”

“Ah? Go out? What for, Master?”

“To gain experience in the world.”

After Lingji Zi and Yuheng Zi left, Yang Genshuo dared to speak with Yang Qiang.

After all, those two were very secretive, and to this day Yang Genshuo was unable to see their true strength and other information. If Yang Qiang hadn’t performed well or had become distracted, they might have noticed something was off.

If they discovered that Yang Qiang was still working for the Family… they might not allow him to come to the Void Palace anymore and might even take back the cultivation techniques.

“Qiang’er, record it quickly!”

“Yes!”

Yang Qiang hurriedly recorded the “Demon Slaying Technique,” and a profound cultivation technique also appeared on Yang Genshuo’s computer, which he could display to the descendants of the Yang Family at any time through “Manifestation.”

But this “Demon Slaying Technique”… was immense, having been perfected and created by generations of cultivators from the nine great families, it had become a comprehensive encyclopedia on the Demon Clan.

It included the “Comprehensive Demon Appreciation,” “Demon Suppressing Magic,” “Demon Suppressing Magic Treasure”…

“What a powerful ‘Demon Slaying Technique’!”

Yang Genshuo was very satisfied; this was precisely what the Yang Family of the Danai Dynasty needed to resolve their current predicament.

He skimmed through it briefly, and even a basic “Demon Seeking Technique” could greatly aid their current situation.

It took Yang Qiang three days to fully record this comprehensive set of techniques. Then he hastily left with Lingji Zi and Yuheng Zi, disappearing after entering a teleportation gate.

Yang Genshuo lost sight of Yang Qiang as well.

But this time he wasn’t too worried.

“It must be Lingji Zi and Yuheng Zi concealing Yang Qiang’s fate, causing me to temporarily lose sight of him. With two experts protecting him, there should be no problem. I’ll talk to him when he comes back.”

“The urgent task now is to pass ‘Demon Slaying Technique’ to the cultivators of the Danai Dynasty.”

This cultivation technique was not something Yang Genshuo intended to keep to himself. Like the nine Great Immortal Clans of the past, he wanted to stand united, with everyone cultivating the “Demon Slaying Technique” together in order to resist the invasion of the Demon Clan.

One month later…

A new cultivation technique appeared in Bright City for the cultivators of the Danai Dynasty to practice.

The cultivators were baffled upon seeing the “Demon Slaying Technique.”

“This… do they want us to abandon our current techniques to practice this one? I can’t bear to switch.”

“This technique seems powerful, but it’s only useful when fighting the Demon Clan. On ordinary days, it’s not as good as my current Great Sun Golden Flame Technique…”

“Where are the demons? Isn’t this just like that useless Dragon Slaying Skill?”

“Huh?”

Xiong Ba Wu, the demon who was strolling through the markets, suddenly startled at the sight of everyone’s expressions.

“Oh no! They’re coming for us!”
