Chapter 139 140, Reflection! Demonic Powers!
"This tiger demon is really amazing... Although his martial arts are terrible, his strength and magic are quite powerful."
Looking back at the ground that had been blown over and even the stones had been smashed into powder, Ouyang Feng sighed, tore off the rags on his upper body, walked to the tiger monster's corpse with his upper body naked, thought for a moment, took out his snowflake iron knife, poured his true energy into it and slashed at the tiger monster's head.
clang!
With a crisp sound, a dazzling spark flew out from the place where the blade collided with the tiger demon's head, and a few scattered tiger hairs fell off.
"Even a steel knife infused with innate Qi can't hurt it! This tiger monster is really not bragging!"
Ouyang Feng was amazed.
Don’t look at the fact that he cut off a few hairs of the tiger monster, but that’s because the tiger monster was dead, its blood and energy dissipated, and it couldn’t practice its skills. Without the protection of the demonic energy, it would of course become more fragile.
But even so, Ouyang Feng could only cut off its tiger hair and could not break its skin. This shows how strong the monster's physique was when it was alive.
After trying the Snowflake Iron Knife, he switched to the Blood Drinking Knife. There was no need to infuse true energy with it. With a light poke, he was able to poke a hole in the tiger skin on the tiger monster's head.
Afterwards, Ouyang Feng tried to attack with palm power again, and found that the soft and penetrating palm power such as "Bone-melting Palm and Heart-destroying Palm" could barely penetrate the tiger skin and hurt the flesh inside. But again, if the tiger monster was alive, his current palm power might not be able to penetrate the tiger monster's blood defense.
As for the tiger demon's previous roaring magic, although his mind had been honed by the "Life-Calling Sanskrit Sound" and the "Evil Emperor's Relics" for a long time, he could ignore the impact on his mind, but as for his physical body, even with the protection of the "Vajra Indestructible Body" and the "True Qi Force Field", if he didn't have the Blood Drinking Sword, he really wouldn't be able to be like now, with only his clothes injured and his flesh intact.
"If you use the Snowflake Iron Knife to perform 'Snow Embracing Blue Pass', the knife will be broken by the tiger monster's sound wave power, and it will not be able to block much damage. After that, the body will be hit by the sound wave. Even if it does not hurt the meridians and internal organs, it will at least cause flesh injuries, or even break the tendons and bones."
Looking at the huge tiger corpse in front of him, Ouyang Feng looked solemn:
"This is just an ordinary wild monster that doesn't seem to have any heritage. This world is probably more dangerous than I thought..."
Judging from the tiger monster's clothing, weapons, and martial arts, this tiger monster is probably a wild monster that relies entirely on talent for survival and has no proper inheritance.
If it were a demon as powerful as Pudu Cihang, it would probably not be that simple.
"Even with the Blood Drinking Sword that can attack demons, my current cultivation is still a little lacking... Never mind, I should be more cautious and go back to continue my cultivation. When I am stronger, I will come back to explore."
Ouyang Feng has been cautious since he was a child. When the enemy's situation was unclear, he could even lie in ambush in a pit of fallen leaves and pretend to be a toad. Now that he has finally stepped into the gate of Changsheng, he will certainly not take reckless risks.
Furthermore, not only are the demons in this world powerful, but the energy of heaven and earth also gives him a bad feeling.
When fighting the tiger demon just now, he absorbed the essence of heaven and earth to replenish his energy consumption, and felt that the essence of heaven and earth carried a cold and evil aura. Although it could quickly replenish the innate true qi, the cold and evil aura mixed into the dantian, even with the powerful tolerance of Ouyang Feng's "Hunyuan Wuji Gong", he has not been able to completely refine it until now.
Thinking of those humanoid corpses with dark blue skin and protruding fangs, Ouyang Feng instinctively felt that there was something wrong with this cold and evil aura.
If the amount ingested is small, it can be refined by relying on the inclusiveness of Hunyuan Wuji Gong. However, if one is caught in a melee or a protracted battle, one must maintain the state of absorbing the essence of heaven and earth for a long time to replenish the consumed true energy, and there is no telling how much evil aura will be ingested.
If there is no time to refine it, and the evil aura accumulates beyond a certain limit, the consequences will be quite disastrous.
"Exploring this world, replenishing the true energy is also a problem. Perhaps I can refine some pills?"
While Ouyang Feng was thinking, he collected the tiger demon's corpse, even the three-pronged steel fork, and threw the "Sky Centipede Pearl" into the storage talisman, then took out a new set of clothes and put them on.
Afterwards, he did not leave in a hurry, but instead turned his attention to the "Mirror of the Sky", wanting to try out the "Reflection Technique".
During the three months he spent in the Shuanglong world, he only used the "Reflection Technique" once, to translate the oracle bone script of the Changsheng Jue.
The two subsequent "Reflection Techniques" and the "Reflection Techniques" for the entire autumn and winter seasons after returning to the main world were all accumulated.
Now I have stored up eight complete reflection techniques.
There are only two more times left before we can have a "deduction and fusion".
However, he had exhausted his martial arts resources before, and the martial arts resources he had accumulated now were still insufficient. He could not deduce anything for the time being, so he decided to use it a few times and see his luck.
"Reflection Technique!"
With a thought, he activated the "Reflection Technique", and the mirror surface of the Tongtian Baojian was filled with a riot of light and shadow, while words fell like raindrops and a waterfall.
When the images and text stabilized, Ouyang Feng couldn't help but have a strange look on his face.
"Tiger Roaring Skill - The innate magical power of the tiger demon. It absorbs the killing energy from the west and condenses a 'soul-killing evil spirit' that can shock the mind and even kill the soul or ghost. It absorbs the essence of the metal element and refines the 'crushing sound wave', which has the ability to crush stone into powder and break steel."
After the introduction, the specific method of practicing this tiger demon's innate magical power is presented.
People can also practice this move and will not turn themselves into demons, but the prerequisite is that they can be exposed to the murderous aura of the west and the essence of the metal element.
Also, because humans do not have the same vocal talent as tigers, even if they succeed in their practice, their power will be weaker than that of a tiger demon.
"Heh, this tiger demon really is... a great send-off."
Ouyang Feng chuckled. He entered the Dao with the essence of gold and also understood sound skills. This "Tiger Roaring Skill" was really tailor-made for him.
The first time he used the "Reflection Technique" he produced a small masterpiece, and Ouyang Feng was greatly encouraged. He kept working hard and continued to reflect.
"Transformation into a tiger - the art of transformation, can transform into a fierce tiger, the method of cultivation..."
The second technique that was reflected was also extraordinary, it was actually a technique of transformation.
After seeing this transformation technique, Ouyang Feng couldn't help but look a little subtle:
If you learn the technique of "transforming into a tiger" and practice the "tiger roaring skill", wouldn't you be able to impersonate a tiger demon?
If one could impersonate a tiger demon and explore this world where demons are unexpectedly numerous, the danger would obviously be much lower.
The reason why Tongtian Baojian has become so spiritual is that the third "Tongtian Spirit Seed" has matured. Has Tongtian Baojian been upgraded again?
Then, after killing the enemy, can we directly reflect the enemy's martial arts?
However, this technique of "transforming into a tiger" is obviously not something that the tiger demon can practice.
Its original form is a tiger, so why is it necessary to practice this magic?
So, this magic already existed in this world, and I happened to defeat the tiger monster. So after the upgrade, the Tongtian Baojian, which became more spiritual, used this as a guide to reflect this magic?
"If that's true, the upgrade of Tongtian Baojian is indeed more practical. It's a pity that although the functions of this treasure are extremely powerful, its intelligence is insufficient. It is not even as good as the Blood Drinking Sword. After the upgrade, there are new functions, but they didn't even inform me actively, and I have to figure it out by myself..."
Ouyang Feng shook his head and read the "Tiger Transformation" technique carefully. He became more and more certain that this was a magic spell that was beneficial to him and was inspired by the tiger demon in the Tongtian Treasure Mirror.
Because this tiger-transforming technique requires tiger demon skin, bones, heart, and flesh as materials, the bones are ground into powder, the heart and blood of the tiger demon are mixed into ink, and the spell is written inside the intact tiger skin, and then the altar is opened to pray for the "White Tiger Seven Stars" for 81 days. During this period, soup is boiled with tiger bones, tiger meat, and tiger blood, and three bowls are drunk every day, using a special mental method to cultivate a "demon spirit" and store it in the lungs.
Afterwards, wait until the tiger skin and demonic energy are both refined, and when casting the spell, spray the demonic energy onto the tiger skin, and then drape the tiger skin over your body. You will then be able to transform into the appearance of a tiger demon, and possess 90% of the physical strength of the tiger demon when it was alive.
But you still have to practice the magic yourself.
In addition, this transformation cannot be maintained indefinitely.
The duration depends on the caster's mentality and cultivation.
The more resilient one's mind is and the more advanced one's cultivation is, the longer one can maintain change.
If one reaches the limit and still tries to force the change, the tiger skin will slowly take root in the person, gradually confusing the mind of the person who casts the spell, causing problems with identity recognition, and finally turning him into a real tiger monster.
Therefore, it is extremely risky for ordinary people or those who are not mentally strong enough to perform this technique. It is easy to become addicted to the tiger monster's powerful physical strength, gradually forget their true nature, and turn into a real monster.
But with Ouyang Feng's intelligence, there is no need to worry about this.
"I just happened to kill a complete tiger demon. I have all the materials and the tiger demon's innate magical powers... I have cultivated the art of transforming into a tiger and mastered the tiger roaring skill. I can pretend to be a tiger demon perfectly."
Originally, he wanted to reflect it a few more times.
But thinking about the fact that both times what was reflected were "techniques" rather than "Tao", and both were related to demons, plus the fact that the atmosphere of this world was a little bit wrong, and the essence of heaven and earth was filled with a cold and evil aura, he suppressed the urge to continue reflecting.
"The tiger transformation technique requires eighty-one days of prayer, and the tiger roar technique requires even longer practice. I also need to practice regularly... Forget it, I'd better learn what I've already learned first."
After making the decision, Ouyang Feng stopped reflecting on the technique, looked around again, and left this world with the Blood Drinking Knife - the Blood Drinking Knife was not a living creature of flesh and blood, so it was not afraid of the chaotic radiation in the space-time channel and could leave with him. And now that the permanent channel had been opened, there was no need for the Tongtian Spirit Seed to locate it.
Of course, if the host of the Tongtian Spirit Seed is taken away, the next time it descends, it will only appear at a fixed location, that is, the location when it last left.
If the Tongtian Spirit Seed remains in the other world, it will descend in front of the Spirit Seed host.
However, the Blood Drinking Blade cannot walk by itself and cannot change its position, unlike Lian Xing and Shan Wanjing, who can carry the Tongtian Spirit Seed with them and run around.
So, it doesn't matter if you take the knife with you.
……
After returning to the main world, Ouyang Feng did not immediately begin to practice the art of "transforming into a tiger".
This technique requires opening an altar to pray to the Seven Stars of the White Tiger, so he plans to do it after returning to Huashan.
He practiced the Tiger Roaring Technique for a while. With Ouyang Feng's aptitude and the compatibility with this spell, it was not difficult to practice and his progress was just OK. He estimated that it would take about four months for him to practice it to a level that was practical enough.
As for the "Sky Centipede Pearl", he also studied it carefully and found that this small bead contained an extremely large amount of true essence.
However, its nature tends to be evil, and every time Ouyang Feng has the idea of mobilizing the true essence, even if he has not yet put it into action, his keen spiritual perception will instinctively warn him, making him feel an extremely strong sense of crisis.
Although the "Evil Emperor's Relics" also have a very strong aura of death and evil, which will impact people's spirits and affect their hearts, it did not make him feel such a strong sense of crisis.
This made Ouyang Feng wonder whether there was someone's spiritual will hidden in the true energy of the "Sky Centipede Pearl" - the bead was called "Sky Centipede Pearl", and the true energy inside could transform into the form of a centipede with a thousand legs. Ouyang Feng was 90% sure that this bead was the relic after the "Pudu Cihang" was blown up.
At least it is one of the relics.
Therefore, the true essence contained in this pearl is most likely part of Pudu Cihang's cultivation. That is why it has such a huge attraction to demons, luring those little demons with insufficient intelligence to come to the Blood Drinking Knife one after another to die.
Even a relatively powerful demon like the tiger demon couldn't resist the temptation and took a risk, ending up destroying himself.
But a great demon like Pudu Cihang would obviously not benefit future demons. There might be something fishy in the relics he left behind, or even a back-up plan for taking over another's body and being reborn.
And with Pu Du Ci Hang's cultivation level, if the "Sky Centipede Pearl" really contains his spiritual will, then no matter how strong Ouyang Feng's mind is, his size is definitely not as good as that of a thousand-year-old monster, and he might be devoured by it and possessed by it.
Therefore, before he was absolutely sure, Ouyang Feng would never touch the true essence inside.
After a lively Lantern Festival in Gaochang City, Ouyang Feng and Lin Chaoying bid farewell to their brother and sister-in-law early the next morning and set out on their journey back to Mount Hua.
It only took them five or six days to get here, and even though there was snow and wind blocking the way back, it only took them seven or eight days to get back to Mount Huashan.
I didn’t expect that after returning to Huashan, there would be a little surprise.
Huang Yaoshi came to Huashan.
"Pharmacist, I knew you would come to see me."
When he returned to the mountain gate, he saw Huang Yaoshi standing among the disciples, and Ouyang Feng couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart - what a coincidence! He was just thinking about refining some pills when Huang Yaoshi came.
In addition, he now has a way to completely transform Huang Yaoshi into a member of the Huashan Sect and turn Peach Blossom Island into a branch of the Huashan Sect.
"I came here during the Lantern Festival. Why did you come back only today?" Huang Yaoshi looked a little unhappy. "I have made a great invention and came here to share it with you and my sister-in-law. But you have been traveling around until today."
Ouyang Feng smiled and said:
"You are wrong to blame us. It's more than 5,000 miles from Gaochang to here, and there were snowstorms blocking the way. It only took us seven or eight days to get back. We wore out several pairs of shoes, but we didn't waste any time. So, what major inventions have you made?"
Huang Yaoshi turned and walked towards the big tiled house where Ouyang Feng and Lin Chaoying lived:
"This is a military secret. You must be careful. Go inside and talk in detail."
