Chapter 31 - Chapter 29 - Demonic Demeanor Transformation Art

Deep within the Blood Gate Cult, in the cave of feasting demons, Xiao LingYue sat crossed-legged in his cave abode.

His eyes were closed tightly as his body dripped with sweat, his focus completely on his neidan as he utilized the Demonic Demeanor Transformation Art.

His aura billowed and contracted like a beating heart as his neidan was slowly spinning, purifying the Demonic Qi while slowly forming a connection.

Xiao LingYue didn't take any unnecessary actions, like an old monk while the neidan had finished integrating.

His aura flared as his eyes abruptly snapped open, a demonic deep red light flashing within his eyes.

His Demonic Qi blasted outwards his very essence was now rooted within this Demonic aura, no longer was it just his Qi but his very flesh exuded a demonic temperament completely hiding the previous Bestial Qi he exuded if he used his physical strength.

Due to using his own neidan for Demonic Demeanor Transformation Art, many issues which would plague humans did not affect him.

He had no savage, resentment or hateful aura afflicting him, the only thing he had was the Baleful Qi mixed within his aura from the devouring of the ferocious beast's blood.

Xiao LingYue had now reached the initial level of the Demonic Demeanor Transformation Art as wave after wave of pure Demonic Qi was filtered before being disseminated throughout his body.

He first channelled the Demonic Qi and circulated it within his muscles, sinew, blood vessels and his currently opened meridian point, completely recasting and shedding his previous self as his body was remoulded.

This art aimed to make the body as strong as a ferocious or Demonic beast, by remoulding the body, internal organs and physique to increase, power, speed, flexibility and vitality.

Originally the basis of this technique was made after the study of the ferocious beasts and how they cultivate.

The cultivator first needed a ferocious beast who was on its way to becoming a demonic beast since only demonic beasts had beast cores.

These cores were similar to the dantians of humans but they were fully contaminated with Demonic Qi.

The cultivator would then use the Demonic Demeanor Transformation Art to establish a connection with the core before assimilating it into their body to make a fake beast core within their body.

One could then swallow fresh Cores as well as beast blood directly into their body without refining to strengthen the fake core within their bodies.

Their fake Cores would then function similarly to a beast's core as they absorbed Baleful Qi, Resentment and Demonic Qi to further refine and strengthen the cultivator's body.

Once powerful enough, a cultivator could form a Demonic Apparition, which formed a demonic shadow of the beast from the core they assimilated.

Demonic Apparitions were well sought-after since a cultivator with a Demonic Apparition was stronger than one without by at least a fold if both were at the same stage.

***********

LingYue's heartbeat thumped rhythmically as each beat pushed more and more Demonic Qi within him, the impurities began to burn across his skin as it became fairer while his hair became as dark as a bottomless abyss.

His eyes were the colour of rubies as they had a baleful glow to them, his muscles tensed as he noticed he became a size larger yet again, the red lotus between his brows exuded a bewitching charm as the dark rings around his eyes vanished.

The pulsing of the Demonic Qi began to increase as a vague, nigh undetectable Demonic Apparition appeared behind him and as it appeared, fear gripped his heart.

Never before had he felt this way of complete and utter terror. . .

The Apparition roared soundlessly as the cave of feasting demons shook, alarming everyone within as their hearts too was gripped with an unprecedented fear.

As the apparition faded, it was soon replaced by the vague apparition of an Ivory-coloured image of a Fox, its nine tails fluttered in the air as its gaze looked down on all as it too faded slowly.

It seemed like his body knew it could now move as he suddenly fell forward, his body dripping in sweat as his heart trembled and his heart shook, never had he felt so stricken with fear.

He looked behind him as he focused his mind, it could have only been his neidan that produced such a reaction . . .

The fox felt familiar to me but what was that before. . .

It only felt like. . .

Madness and Destruction.
