Chapter 1813: Two Choices! I Choose True Demon Essence Blood!

"So fast?" Xu Jingming was startled.

"Of course."

Illya snuggled up with a grin, very naturally hooking her arm through his:

"To us, peak supreme treasures are rare and hard to come by.

But to Mother, it's just a matter of picking a suitable piece from the treasury."

She tilted up her stunningly beautiful face, purple eyes flashing with cunning light:

"The Blood Demon Palace has inherited through countless epochs; its accumulated treasures are beyond your imagination."

Xu Jingming suddenly understood and nodded.

Right, a Realm Venerable level power — its foundation was naturally terrifyingly deep.

"With the matter of the supreme treasure settled, next is the cultivation of the 'True Demon Canon'."

Venerable Minghuang slowly rose, her blood-colored long robe draping with the movement.

The towering, voluptuous curve of her chest revealed a heart-stirring outline beneath the robe.

Xu Jingming hurriedly composed his mind, focusing intently to listen.

"With your current experience,

wanting to understand the essence of this peerless-grade bloodline secret art will not be easy."

She walked with measured steps to the center of the cabin.

That magnificently ample bosom, lightly wrapped in splendid attire, trembled slightly with each step.

The full, perky curve nearly burst open the lapels.

Immediately after, she lightly raised her jade hand.

A sheet of blood-colored light curtain unfurled in the void, countless ancient demonic runes revolving like stars:

"I shall explain it to you from the beginning."

"Yes!"

Xu Jingming's expression turned solemn, his full attention concentrated.

Venerable Minghuang's explanation was deep yet accessible.

From the origin and core laws of the 'True Demon Canon' to the crucial points of bloodline fusion, she analyzed them one by one.

Her voice was clear, cold, and steady; Xu Jingming listened as if intoxicated and entranced.

Time quietly flowed by; seven hours passed in a flash.

When Venerable Minghuang stopped her explanation, Xu Jingming's eyes were already full of the light of comprehension.

"So that's how it is..." he murmured softly.

Similar to the 'Purple Nightmare Demon Canon', the 'True Demon Canon' likewise requires absorbing demonic essence blood to drive cultivation.

But the 'True Demon Canon's' operation method is even more overbearing, and its effect on purifying and sublimating the bloodline is also stronger.

Once cultivated to completion, the increase in strength will far surpass ordinary secret arts!

"Every layer of the 'True Demon Canon' requires demonic essence blood as a guide.

And this first layer, after absorbing demonic essence blood, opening the 'True Demon State' counts as entry."

Venerable Minghuang looked at him, her dark eyes like an abyss:

"Generally speaking, the essence blood compatibility must reach 90% or above to successfully open it.

Those with outstanding talent can achieve it in several years.

Those with mediocre talent, even if they spend hundreds of thousands of years, may not necessarily touch the threshold."

She paused slightly, her jade finger lightly pointing, two clusters of swirling blood light emerging before her.

In her left palm was a cluster of dark gold blood mist.

Faintly transmitting an ancient, vast roar, as if coming from the primeval wilderness.

In her right palm was a cluster of purple-black blood droplets, silently suspended.

Yet emitting a pressure that made one's soul tremble in fear, an absolute suppression on the level of life.

"I have prepared two types of essence blood for you."

Venerable Minghuang's voice was steady, yet every word carried immense weight:

"The left side is the essence blood of the Ancient Eight Great Demons.

Originating from the eight most ancient bloodlines of the demon race, their potential is profound."

"The right side is the essence blood of the Five Great True Demons."

Her gaze slightly condensed, "True Demons are the supreme bloodline of legend in the demon race, extremely few remain in existence.

Every drop of True Demon essence blood is incomparably precious; the enhancement after successful absorption also far surpasses the Ancient Demons.

But its rejection is extremely strong, and the risk of failure is extremely great."

She leaned forward slightly.

That towering, ample bosom outlined a heart-stirring soft curve beneath the blood-colored long robe, yet her voice was like ice and iron:

"You, which one do you choose?"

The cabin was deathly silent.

Illya also held her breath, purple eyes nervously looking at Xu Jingming.

"Disciple chooses True Demon essence blood!"

Xu Jingming did not hesitate in the slightest, answering directly.

The 'True Demon Canon'!

Since it's already called this name.

Naturally, we must choose the most compatible, the strongest true demon essence blood!

"Are you sure?"

The Nether Phoenix Venerable raised her eyebrows, a hint of surprise appearing on her exquisite face:

"The first level of cultivation in the True Demon Treasure Canon is crucial; once chosen, it cannot be changed.

If you choose true demon essence blood, then the True Demon Treasure Canon has five levels.

Each level requires absorbing different true demon essence blood.

However, I must remind you.

True demon essence blood is precious and rare; finding it later will be extremely difficult."

After a pause, she lifted her jade hand lightly, pointing to the cluster of dark gold blood mist on the left:

"And if you choose ancient demon essence blood, then you need eight corresponding essence bloods.

Ancient demon essence blood is still relatively abundant in the demon clan's territory, and obtaining it is far easier than obtaining true demon essence blood."

Her black eyes, deep as an abyss, stared directly at Xu Jingming:

"This point, you must think it through clearly."

"Blood Abyss..."

Ili Si also couldn't help but speak, her purple eyes full of worry.

She gently grabbed Xu Jingming's arm.

Her ample bosom pressed against him, her voice soft and sweet yet urgent:

"You yourself possess the Void Realm demon bloodline, belonging to one of the Eight Great Ancient Demons.

If you choose ancient demon essence blood.

The compatibility will be higher, and cultivation will be somewhat easier."

She naturally does not wish for Xu Jingming to be expelled from the sect by his mother after failing to complete the first level of cultivation in a year.

Xu Jingming felt the soft touch on his arm, his heart warming slightly.

But the firmness in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest as he spoke:

"Disciple has thought it through clearly; I choose true demon essence blood."

Joking.

With the Deep Blue System, I still wouldn't dare choose the most difficult path?

I might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill myself by smashing into it!

The Nether Phoenix Venerable silently watched him, her deep black eyes seeming to penetrate the soul.

After a while, the corner of her red lips curled into an extremely faint arc.

"Not bad."

She slightly nodded, her exquisite face rarely showing a hint of approval:

"You have courage; since it is so, then it shall be as you wish."

As the words fell, she lightly waved her jade hand.

The cluster of purple-black true demon essence blood on the right slowly drifted toward Xu Jingming.

The essence blood hovered in midair, though only fist-sized.

Yet it emitted an awe-inspiring pressure that made souls tremble.

As if a slumbering ancient true demon lay dormant within, ready to awaken at any moment!

"This first portion of true demon essence blood.

Comes from the Nether Abyss Nether Phoenix, that is, my clan."

The Nether Phoenix Venerable spoke calmly, yet each word was clear:

"The Nether Abyss Nether Phoenix clan is proficient in the origin of space.

It shares a connection with your Void Realm demon bloodline, so the compatibility will be relatively higher."

She paused, then added:

"First, familiarize yourself with the aura of this essence blood, adapt to its pressure.

After one stellar day, I will personally forge the foundation of the True Demon Treasure Canon for you."

"Thank you, Teacher!"

Xu Jingming's face lit up with joy, and he hastily performed a respectful salute.

He extended his large hand, carefully cradling the cluster of purple-black essence blood in his palm.

The essence blood felt icy cold, yet heavy as mountains.

Immediately afterward, he directly stored it into his world ring.

"Alright, you may go now."

The Nether Phoenix Venerable waved her hand, then resumed her seat on the main throne.

Her blood-red robe spread out with the motion, outlining her plump and rounded figure to perfection.

"During this recent period, I will remain in this star field.

If you have any questions, you may come find me at any time."

"Yes."

Xu Jingming responded, preparing to take his leave.

Meanwhile, Ili Si blinked her purple eyes, then suddenly spoke:

"Mother, may I walk together with Blood Abyss?"

The Nether Phoenix Venerable's expression froze.

She turned her head to look at her daughter, a flash of surprise crossing her stunning face.

When had Iris ever not clung to her, insisting on staying a little longer?

This time she actually asked to go with someone else on her own initiative?

The Nether Phoenix Venerable turned her gaze expressionlessly toward Xu Jingming.

Xu Jingming felt a chill run down his spine under her stare, gave a dry cough, and averted his eyes.

"A married daughter is not to be kept."

The Nether Phoenix Venerable let out a soft sigh, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness:

"Forget it, just go with him."
