I Have an Omen System-Chapter 110 - 105: Looting the Corpse

"You’re so naive it’s almost cute!"

Qin Xuan opened his mouth and spat out the Blood Healing Pill he had kept under his tongue.

With a clang, he summoned his Lifebound Longsword.

BZZZ—

With a faint tremor, a pure, viscous, liquid-like "crimson" surged forth from the void!

Du Legu’s expression changed drastically, and he shot backward in retreat.

He finally, belatedly, realized what was happening.

"You... you’re not a True Inheritance disciple of the Cyan Talisman Sect... You’re a remnant of the Blood Demons from Princess Xiao’s faction!"

He slapped the cloth pouch at his waist and slammed his withered vine staff heavily on the ground, trying to control the Mushroom Armor Beast behind him.

But before he could even react, a scorching sea of fire baked him, and his flesh and blood began to melt like beeswax.

ZING—

Before Du Legu’s panicked eyes, a metallic wail that pierced the eardrums rang out across the land.

Wherever the sword light passed, countless dark golden cracks appeared in the void.

Blood Talisman: Broken Gold!

The Crimson Gold Sword Aura surged, and the dark golden cracks swirled about.

CRACK!

The sound of shattering glass echoed through the void.

"No, you can’t kill me! I have a family Soul Lamp... Aaaah!"

Before he could finish, Du Legu let out a piercing scream.

The unbreakable Divine Soul Brand between him and the Mushroom Armor Beast had bizarrely snapped!

In the unseen world, it seemed the Giant Spirit Blood Demon sensed that the person before it was a descendant of the Profound Cliff Du Family, making the duration of this Golden-Breaking Blood Talisman exceptionally long!

Qin Xuan pulled his Lifebound Longsword from Du Legu’s chest.

’If I don’t kill you, how am I supposed to Soul Search you? How am I supposed to toss you into the Soul-devouring Banner to cultivate you?’

The great fire sizzled, and in an instant, all the flesh and blood turned to ash, leaving only a pile of glistening white bones that glowed with a greenish-blue light.

A stream of pure Blood Essence flooded into his body. Qin Xuan felt a wave of comfort wash over him, and his Foundation Establishment Third Level cultivation, which had been stagnant for a long time, began to loosen.

"We Demon Cultivators really need to suck blood to increase our cultivation quickly!"

Qin Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he laughed heartily.

He made a grasping motion with his palm, yanked out Du Legu’s Divine Soul, and began the Soul Search.

The Soul Search had its limitations. It could only be performed between Cultivators of the same major Realm, and first, the target had to be dead. The Divine Soul of a recently deceased Cultivator was in a chaotic state and unable to resist, making the retrieved information the most authentic.

Second, it couldn’t trace memories too far back, and the memories obtained were often fragmented. Later, by nurturing the soul in a Soul Banner, the memories would slowly become complete.

"So that’s how it is. This is what Outer Path Divine Techniques are..."

Beneath the Circulation, there were only thirty orthodox Divinity Transformation Fruit Positions that could be attained through the [Incorporating Five Elements], and thus they were called Celestial Dao Divinity Transformation.

But besides seeking to attain Positional Divine Techniques, were there no other ways to become a Venerable Divinity Transformation?

Theoretically, in the Circulation Realm where Qin Xuan was, this was the case.

However, outside the Circulation, there were other Divinity Transformations achieved through unorthodox, side-door methods. These were collectively known as Outer Path Divinity Transformations.

Those unorthodox methods were naturally called Outer Path Divine Techniques.

Although the power of an Outer Path Divinity Transformation was far inferior to a Celestial Dao Divinity Transformation achieved through the support of Positional Divine Techniques, an Outer Path Divinity Transformation was still a Divinity Transformation, and an Outer Path Divine Technique was still a Divine Technique!

"This Du Legu was definitely not telling the truth. Ye Lan clearly only invited Earth Dao Foundation Establishment Cultivators from Daqian, but he tried to fool me by saying Human Dao Foundation Establishment Cultivators could go too."

’Go there for what? To be a handyman?’

If it were the body’s original owner, the Cyan Talisman Sect disciple Yan Jin, he probably would have been fooled by Du Legu and gone over like an idiot.

But who was Qin Xuan?

He was an outstanding Incense Master from the Holy Sect, with an A-grade rating!

"These Outer Path Divine Techniques are interesting. They don’t conflict with Positional Divine Techniques at all."

The Bone-Eroding Demon Sea was a Little Boundary Heaven in the Outer Domain. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Although the highest cultivation level there was only Golden Core True Monarch, Outer Path Divine Techniques were also passed down within it.

One could only bear a single Positional Divine Technique within a major Realm. Although Ye Lan of the Cyan Cloud Sect was at the Celestial Dao Foundation Establishment Sixth Level, he still wanted to become stronger.

Therefore, he set his sights on the Outer Path Divine Techniques within the Bone-Eroding Demon Sea, which were second only to Positional Divine Techniques.

’If I get the chance, I’ll have to get a piece of the action...’ Qin Xuan thought to himself.

’Since I’m already here, I might as well cause some trouble!’

Through Du Legu, Chen Lixuan, Yan Jin, and others, Qin Xuan finally got a clear measure of the vast difference in combat power between Celestial Dao, Earth Dao, and Human Dao Foundation Establishment.

"Among Foundation Establishment Cultivators, a Human Dao Foundation Establishment Cultivator is no match for a Celestial Dao one unless they are at least three minor realms higher."

"An Earth Dao Foundation Establishment Cultivator needs to be at least two minor realms higher than a Celestial Dao one!"

For example, in a fair one-on-one fight, without using Positional Divine Techniques, just by relying on Treasure Talismans and other Divine Power Techniques, a Celestial Dao First Level cultivator could basically fight a Human Dao Third Level or an Earth Dao Second Level to a draw. They might even have a slight edge due to the superior quality of their True Essence.

If Positional Divine Techniques were included, a Celestial Dao First Level could instantly kill an Earth Dao Third Level or a Human Dao Fourth Level cultivator!

"No wonder the highest cultivation for Celestial Dao Foundation Establishment Cultivators in this Foundation Establishment Chaos War can’t exceed the Sixth Level."

"They’re afraid of letting the big shots stomp on the newbies in the starting zone..."

Based on Qin Xuan’s current cultivation, cultivators at Earth Dao Fifth Level, Human Dao Sixth Level, and below were no match for him.

If he added his two empty Positional Divine Techniques, he could even easily slay a Celestial Dao Fourth Level!

’But if I go up against chosen ones from the sects like Liu Mobai and Ye Lan, who are at the Celestial Dao Sixth Level, I still have to steer clear.’

Once the Soul Search was complete, Qin Xuan casually wiped away the Divine Soul Brand Du Legu had placed on the Mushroom Armor Beast and tossed the soul into his Soul-devouring Banner.

Then, with a quick transformation, he took on Du Legu’s appearance.

"Little Shroom, come!"

Qin Xuan gently tapped the withered vine staff in his hand. The Mushroom Armor Beast, with a dazed look in its eyes, actually wobbled toward him.

It lowered its head and affectionately nuzzled against Qin Xuan’s leg.

The Ten Thousand Forms Blood Talisman could even deceive a contracted Demon Beast!

Qin Xuan threw his head back and laughed, spreading his arms to examine himself with satisfaction, his eyes brimming with amusement.

"From this day forward, I am Du Legu, the third Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the ’Lei’ generation in the Profound Cliff Du Family!"

The disguise effect of the Ten Thousand Forms Blood Talisman was simply heaven-defying.

Even if Du Haixian, the current Patriarch of the Profound Cliff Du Family, were to appear in person, as long as Qin Xuan didn’t willingly reveal a flaw, his own father wouldn’t be able to tell he was an imposter with the naked eye.

Using the information fed back from the Mushroom Armor Beast, combined with the fragmented memories from Du Legu’s Divine Soul, it didn’t take long for Qin Xuan to get a solid grasp of the Profound Cliff Du Family’s legacy cultivation technique, the *Yi Wood Evergreen Skill*, which specialized in healing and nurturing Spiritual Plants.

He had to admit, the Profound Cliff Du Family really had something to them.

This Mushroom Armor Beast was Du Legu’s Lifebound Companion. According to the *Spirit River Junior-Level Medicine Manual*, it was called a Cyan Mushroom Beast.

It was similar to the Holy Sect’s Lifebound Longsword.

The Profound Cliff Du Family had practiced Wood Attribute cultivation techniques for generations and wasn’t skilled in combat. Therefore, their ancestor, Du Xuanya, came up with the method of raising a Lifebound Companion to improve the combat abilities of future descendants.

You could say that more than half of Du Legu’s offensive combat power resided in this Mushroom Armor Beast.

"Too bad it’s all mine now."

Qin Xuan rubbed his hands together in anticipation and began looting the corpse.

"Let’s see what treasures you’ve left for me, kid."

Du Legu’s seemingly ordinary gray robe, covered in pockets, was actually a Magic Robe with storage functions, a Top-Grade defensive Magical Artifact.

Even a heat as scorching as a Flame Demon’s had only melted his flesh and blood, yet this Top-Grade Defense Robe was merely scorched at the corners, remaining largely intact.

From the pockets of the gray robe, Qin Xuan pulled out quite a few things:

A Black Seed that pulsed like a heart, slowly wriggling as if alive. A handful of multicolored bone powder that shimmered with a phosphorescent glow.

And a small bottle of a viscous Green Liquid that smelled of realgar!
