Chapter 38: Vampire Touch and the Evil-Warding Sword Technique

The pitch-black Book of Demonic Inheritance remained suspended in the darkness, while below it, on the Altar, more than 20 black Qi threads of varying lengths were constantly slithering about.

After Uchiha Feiyu entered this space, he asked a question directly: could it be guaranteed that the inheritances provided by the Book of Demonic Path would all be useful to him?

The Book of Demonic Inheritance in the sky emitted bursts of black light, forming twisted and eerie characters:

If there is a specific target during a sacrifice, ten times the life of living beings is required.

Uchiha Feiyu was slightly stunned and rubbed his chin:

"In other words, if I really want some specific Demonic Path knowledge, I must spend ten times the sacrifice to obtain it?"

"And if it's an ordinary sacrifice, it's hard to say whether the knowledge obtained will be useful... just like the cultivation method for the Silver-Scaled Poisonous Snake at the beginning."

Although it is called the Magic Dao Inheritance Compendium, according to Uchiha Feiyu's two experiences with inheritance, it seems that as long as it is that kind of dangerous and vicious technique, it can be collected by this big book.

For example, the Spirit-Restraining and General-Ordering technique and the cultivation method for the Silver-Scaled Poisonous Snake; theoretically, these two inheritances cannot be called orthodox Demonic Path, they can only be counted as evil arts, yet they are still included in this book. It can be seen that the content inside this big book is truly all-encompassing and countless.

Under these circumstances, the vast majority of the knowledge and inheritance Uchiha Feiyu obtains through sacrifice probably does not meet his requirements.

"Regardless, let's try it first! First, use ten strands of black Qi to sacrifice directly, and then try the specific sacrifice method."

The ten strands of black Qi flashed and vanished; the Book of Demonic Inheritance vibrated slightly, and a beam of black light shot into Uchiha Feiyu's body.

"Vampire Touch?! Isn't this thing a necromancy spell from Dungeons and Dragons? Even this counts as Demonic Path?"

"Then will there be spells like Death Finger, Lich Reincarnation Technique, or Summon Undead in the future? Should I just change my profession to a necromancer?"

"However... a spell like Vampire Touch probably wouldn't adapt well to the Naruto World, right? Chakra and the Dharma Power of the DND world are not the same thing."

The effect of Vampire Touch in the DND world is to cause massive damage to the enemy and convert half of the damage the enemy receives into healing energy to heal oneself; the drawback is that it must be used through physical contact.

Although it is only a third-level spell in the DND world, if placed here in the Naruto World, it could at least be rated as an S-rank ninjutsu; it certainly cannot be said to be useless.

But... wanting to convert this kind of spell into a ninjutsu still has a bit of difficulty; at least with Uchiha Feiyu's foundation, there is definitely no chance in the short term.

Moreover, Vampire Touch requires physical contact; using a sword to slash definitely doesn't count, and although it's not completely at odds with Uchiha Feiyu's own combat system, it is slightly difficult to integrate.

"Let's treat it as an accumulation of foundation for now... I'll be able to use it eventually."

"For now, let's try the sacrifice method with a specific target!"

A thought stirred in Uchiha Feiyu's heart, and the remaining ten or so strands of black Qi evaporated instantly. The black Book of Demonic Inheritance trembled slightly and transmitted another piece of information.

When Uchiha Feiyu was sacrificing just now, he had thought in his mind that he hoped to get a sword technique—mainly because the effect of a precise sacrifice is only one-tenth, equivalent to the black Qi of a dead Chunin-level ninja, so it was impossible to get anything too good.

And what the Book of Demonic Inheritance transmitted to Uchiha Feiyu was indeed not anything good—only the move-set version of the Evil-Warding Sword Technique.

The Evil-Warding Sword Technique comes from the Sunflower Manual and is an evil martial art that requires a great price to practice. Once mastered, one's movements are like ghosts and spirits, extremely fast, and as long as one passes the first hurdle of self-castration, one can achieve success in a very short time.

It's just that what Uchiha Feiyu obtained was only the move-set version, which is the flowery display that Lin Zhennan and Lin Pingzhi started practicing in the Proud Smiling Wanderer.

"Tsk... to say it's useless... that's not quite right; to say it's useful... it really doesn't seem to have much use."

Uchiha Feiyu looked at the Evil-Warding Sword Technique with some disdain and finally decided to let Hatake Sakumo take a look at this sword technique when the time came; perhaps it would provide him with quite a bit of inspiration.

At any rate, Sakumo's White Fang Sword Technique can be called a high-speed style; perhaps it could have some synergy with the moves of the Evil-Warding Sword Technique?

After obtaining two gains, Uchiha Feiyu exited this space directly and made a firm decision:

"I need to go out and slash more people... if I slash two hundred more people this time, I can directly obtain a more precise inheritance of the same level as Vampire Touch!"

Vampire Touch combines both lethality and healing, and in the Naruto World, it is also a top-tier S-rank ninjutsu. Any S-rank ninjutsu can create an Elite Jonin, and even in Shadow-level battles, this kind of ninjutsu can be called a trump card.

If he really obtains some supporting inheritances, Uchiha Feiyu could definitely make his strength leap forward again in a short time and truly enter the Quasi-Kage level.

In fact, after this period of training, the current Uchiha Feiyu, in the state of Hatake Sakumo's Possession, can already be considered a Shadow-level Ninja, though only the weakest kind.

Even without Hatake Sakumo, Uchiha Feiyu's strength can already be called an Elite Jonin. Of course, just as the Possession state belongs to the floor of the Shadow-level, Uchiha Feiyu in his base state is also just an Elite Jonin at the entry level.

Carrying beautiful expectations for the future, Uchiha Feiyu left the Demonic Path space directly. After more than a month of recuperation, he felt that his overall strength had reached its peak and was prepared to go find Orochimaru for more missions.

"I can be a bit more aggressive this time. After all, on the current battlefield, almost no one can threaten my life. Unless the Fourth Kazekage has water in his brain and comes to kill me personally, even that Puppet Master Chiyo doesn't have the ability to kill me."

Thinking this in his heart, Uchiha Feiyu walked out of the hidden training ground he had opened up and headed toward the Konoha camp, but halfway there, the expression on his face changed slightly.

"What's going on? Why are there so many strange soul auras nearby?"

Uchiha Feiyu, who possesses the Spirit-Restraining and General-Ordering ability, can perceive soul auras at close range. From this perspective, he can also be considered a sensory ninja, but his sensing range is very narrow; the range he could originally perceive was not even 20 meters.

However, after killing quite a few Sand Ninja and incorporating the sensory ability of one of the sensory ninjas, his sensing range suddenly expanded more than ten times, and he can now perceive the soul auras of life within a range of 200 meters.

Now he discovered that within this range, some strange soul auras seemed to have appeared.
