Chapter 379

Jiang Yan nodded.

"That is indeed the case, and this technique also represents a pure demonic cultivator."

"Extreme destructive power, insidious means, and the determination that both sides must die once the blade is drawn."

"Therefore, the ancestors originally intended to destroy this technique."

"Harmful to heaven and reason, leaving no way to survive—this does not meet Shushan's requirements."

"But later, the Sect Master of that time spoke up, allowing the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade to be preserved and placed in the Scripture Pavilion."

Everyone was confused, and Ningguang asked in confusion:

"Sect Master, why is this? This Reverse Blood Demonic Blade is completely a technique that harms heaven and reason, with no room for turning back."

"It's the same old saying."

Jiang Yan said softly:

"Techniques have no right or wrong, power is not divided into good or evil."

"Of course, the main reason is that the Sect Master at the time wanted to use the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade to test whether the disciples could control this demonic technique."

"And lead them onto the right path."

"The Reverse Blood Demonic Blade indeed leaves no way to survive, but Shushan also leaves no room for those who harm the world."

"If used to subdue demons and eliminate evil, it is not unacceptable."

"Subsequent events also proved that although the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade is vicious, it is not uncontrollable."

"Admittedly, many disciples lost their original intention and used the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade to do things they shouldn't have, even drawing their blades against fellow disciples."

"But there were also disciples who kept their original hearts and used the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade to subdue demons and eliminate evil. Elder Canggu was a master of the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade."

"And because of the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade, Elder Canggu became a nightmare in the hearts of demons, the 'demon among demonic cultivators' in the mouths of demons."

"Shushan has never rejected a technique because of individual cases."

"Therefore, the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade has been preserved to this day."

Jiang Yan looked at Tartaglia, his gaze deep, as if he wanted to see through his original heart.

After a long while, he said softly:

"Although Tartaglia is eager for battle, he is not an unforgivable person; he has his own bottom line."

"However, I still have to warn you."

"The Reverse Blood Demonic Blade harms heaven and reason; once it is unsheathed, it must drink blood and cause great slaughter."

"I hope you can hold fast to your Dao heart and never point the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade at fellow disciples or innocent people."

"Otherwise, regardless of whether slaughter is caused, the Law Enforcement Hall will suppress you."

"Because from the moment you draw your blade, you harbor killing intent, which is something Shushan absolutely does not allow."

"Do you understand?"

Tartaglia nodded solemnly and bowed:

"The disciple understands. Please rest assured, Sect Master, the disciple will never use the Reverse Blood Demonic Blade to do evil."

"The people killed by the disciple's Reverse Blood Demonic Blade will definitely be evil people who have committed many evils."

"If I violate this oath, may heaven destroy and earth annihilate me."

Jiang Yan nodded slightly; Tartaglia had already made a Dao heart oath in front of him.

There was no need to worry too much.

Although Tartaglia was eager for battle, he still had a bottom line, and with the Dao heart oath made, once violated, Tartaglia would be finished directly.

Everyone stopped thinking about Tartaglia's Reverse Blood Demonic Blade.

Except for the techniques of Tartaglia and a few others being a bit strange, the others were considered normal.

Of course...

This didn't count Xingqiu and Chongyun.

These two were not demonic cultivators, nor were they evil or ghost cultivators.

But...

Dual cultivation wasn't appropriate either!

Jiang Yan looked at the two with a complicated gaze, which made them feel guilty.

They prayed that Jiang Yan wouldn't say it out loud, otherwise they would really have no face to be people.

Especially since Shenhe was here; if Shenhe found out, Chongyun would probably face a bombardment of letters from home.

The old Chong family only had this one seedling; he must never go down the wrong path.

Fortunately, although Jiang Yan expressed his emotions regarding the wonderful and tragic love between Xingqiu and Chongyun.

he didn't say it out loud.

After all, strictly speaking, this technique could only be considered a normal technique.

It was just that the way of performing it was a bit...

Jiang Yan decided not to think too much about it in the future. Xingqiu and Chongyun's affairs...

He didn't understand, but he respected them.

He only cared about the disciples' cultivation; the disciples' hobbies and orientations...

That was their own business.

The matter of all the new disciples joining the sect could be considered resolved.

By now, the sky had completely darkened.

Today basically ended here.

Starting tomorrow, it would be the day these disciples officially began their cultivation.

But before that...

Jiang Yan glanced at Ningguang and the others.

Although they hid it well, the gaze that looked at the top of Jiang Yan's head from time to time couldn't be hidden from him.

These spiritual artifacts truly made them care.

Although they probably couldn't get them, looking at them wasn't against the law.

"Your matters have been finished. Next, let's talk about the things I want to instruct you on."

Jiang Yan slowly raised his hand, and the Three-Colored Linglong Pagoda, which had finished absorbing the Heavenly One Divine Water, floated into his palm.

Alice's eyes lit up; if Jiang Yan were wearing a suit of armor right now, he would truly be the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King manifested.

The auspicious clouds also naturally followed the pagoda into his palm, and although they shrank a lot, the majesty of the many magic treasures within did not diminish at all.

"Not long ago, I went to the sect's treasure vault to select some magic treasures, preparing to put them into the Merit Hall for you to exchange for in the coming period."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lumine said excitedly:

"Sect Master, are you saying that this small pagoda will be placed in the Merit Hall for exchange?"

Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

As expected of Lumine.

She had her eye on the strongest treasure at a glance.

This kind of treasure-hunting intuition could also be considered a talent.

But Jiang Yan still shook his head.

"Naturally, it's not the Three-Colored Linglong Pagoda in my hand; this is my own magic treasure."

"Moreover, even if it were placed in the Merit Hall, whether you could afford to exchange for it is one thing, and whether you could use it is another."

Jiang Yan perhaps also had the intention of showing off, and he shook his hand lightly.

The Three-Colored Linglong Pagoda grew with the wind and turned into a huge pagoda, standing in the main hall.

Looking at Lumine, who had her mouth wide open in surprise, Jiang Yan teased:

"This Three-Colored Linglong Pagoda itself has almost broken away from the level of a spiritual artifact. Now that I have nourished it with Heavenly One Divine Water, it has already reached the half-step treasure artifact level."

"When it is recast in the future, it will be a true treasure artifact."

"How would you exchange for it, and how would you use it?" ===== CHAPTER 380 =====

226. Cultivators also have signature weapons; Hu Tao's signature weapon is the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

Hearing Jiang Yan say this, everyone immediately dismissed the idea of wanting to exchange for it.

The Three-Colored Linglong Pagoda, a half-step treasure, is indeed very tempting.

But considering that even an ordinary, weakest spiritual weapon costs over a million contribution points.
