Strongest Scammer: Scamming The World, One Death At A Time-Chapter 805: Practicing The Moon Conquering Divine Art
If the Freezing Abyss Glacial Art was a lost legacy of the Kidney Peaks, then the Moon Conquering Divine Art was something equally extraordinary in another sense.
It was connected to the core cultivation technique of the Slaughtered Moon Divine Blood Sect itself.
Han Yu closed his eyes and allowed his consciousness to sink inward.
He entered his Soul Space.
The vast Soul ocean appeared around him once more, calm and quiet after the chaos that had occurred earlier. At the center floated the Eight Emotions Lotus, its petals gently shimmering with faint emotional energy.
From its center rose the miniature Stelae.
The strange inheritance construct that had merged into his soul.
Han Yu approached it slowly.
The Stelae was still covered in constantly shifting runes written in Dao Script. They moved across the surface like living symbols, appearing and disappearing in endless patterns.
The first time he had looked at them, deciphering the meaning had taken tremendous effort.
But this time things were different.
Han Yu focused his gaze on the Stelae.
The moment his intention formed, the runes responded.
They slowed.
Then rearranged.
The shifting symbols aligned into readable lines of Dao Script. The title appeared clearly at the top of the surface.
Moon Conquering Divine Art.
Han Yu nodded quietly.
"So it really does respond now."
It seemed that once a technique had been comprehended once, the Stelae allowed easier access to it afterward.
Han Yu carefully began reading through the text again.
This time he studied every detail thoroughly.
The Moon Conquering Divine Art was indeed an advanced form of the Slaughtering Moon Blood Baptism Art. The core principles were the same, but the methods of circulation and refinement were far more refined.
Where the basic technique merely purified Blood Qi through repeated circulation, the Moon Conquering Divine Art introduced a transformation process.
It converted ordinary Blood Qi into Moon Blood Qi.
A far denser and purer form of energy.
Han Yu read through the entire text several times.
He memorized the mnemonic.
He studied the circulation pathways.
He examined the internal principles of the transformation process.
Only when he felt confident that he understood every part of the technique did he decide to begin cultivation.
Since the technique was an evolved form of the Slaughtering Moon Blood Baptism Art, he did not expect major difficulties. His body had already adapted to the original technique long ago.
The only difference would be the amount of Moon Blood Crystals required to accelerate the process.
Han Yu closed his eyes within the Soul Space.
Then he quietly recited the mnemonic.
"Blood flows beneath the silent moon, gathering the shadows of heaven.Let crimson tides ascend the sky and conquer the pale throne above."
The moment the chant ended, the Blood Qi within his body began moving.
It flowed through his meridians smoothly, circulating along pathways similar to the Slaughtering Moon Blood Baptism Art but with subtle differences.
At first everything seemed normal.
But soon Han Yu noticed something unexpected.
The Blood Qi within his body was changing. The ordinary Blood Qi circulating through his meridians began to decrease gradually. At the same time, another form of energy appeared.
Moon Blood Qi.
It was denser.
Heavier.
Its color even carried a faint purplish hue within the crimson energy that Han Yu had not seen with the Moon Blood Qi he had absorbed and refined before..
Han Yu watched carefully.
"So the technique really does convert it."
The process was clear.
Instead of simply absorbing Moon Blood Qi from external sources like the older technique required, the Moon Conquering Divine Art actively transformed normal Blood Qi into the superior form.
The conversion was not instantaneous.
But it was steady.
Han Yu could see the change happening with every circulation cycle.
The amount of ordinary Blood Qi slowly shrank while the Moon Blood Qi increased.
Compared to the old technique, the speed was astonishing.
At least twice as fast.
Possibly even more under optimal conditions.
Han Yu continued circulating the technique patiently.
Time passed.
Ten hours slipped by quietly.
By the end of that period, nearly all the free Blood Qi within his meridians had been converted.
But the transformation did not stop there.
The process began affecting the Qi stored inside his core.
That part was much slower.
Inside the core, the energy had already solidified during his advancement to the peak stage of the Core Condensation Realm. Converting that solidified energy into Moon Blood Qi required gradual refinement.
Han Yu examined the results carefully.
Less than one percent of the core energy had changed.
But the change was real.
A small portion of the core's crimson surface now contained faint traces of deeper purple tinged Moon Blood Qi.
Han Yu nodded thoughtfully.
"If I had obtained this technique earlier, this process would have been much faster."
Back when he first formed his core, the energy inside it had still been fluid. Transforming it at that stage would have been far easier.
Now that the core had solidified, every change required more effort.
Still, the progress was impressive.
After examining the results, Han Yu estimated his current condition.
Around sixty percent of his internal Blood Qi had already become Moon Blood Qi from the first technique.
That was extremely high.
Most disciples cultivating the Slaughtering Moon Blood Baptism Art struggled to reach forty percent conversion.
Han Yu was already well ahead of them.
He then took out several Moon Blood Qi crystals.
Their faint red glow illuminated the room slightly.
Han Yu crushed one of them and began circulating the technique again.
The result was immediate.
The speed of the transformation increased noticeably.
The crystal dissolved into refined Moon Blood Qi that flowed directly into his meridians. The Moon Conquering Divine Art then circulated that energy through his body, integrating it smoothly into his existing cultivation.
Han Yu continued the process.
One crystal after another dissolved.
Soon he had used nearly a thousand of them.
But eventually he stopped.
"There's no need to use them all right now."
