Chapter 711: Chapter 710: Visit from the Boundless Mountain

The green-robed cultivator said that the Qi-fusion technique practiced by Yusuf Zuck was indeed the Qi-fusion Dharma Gate of the Joyful Sect, but since Yusuf Zuck had always cultivated this particular technique, it would be difficult for him to change it in a short amount of time.

Furthermore, he did not believe the way of Qi-fusion was inferior; this Qi-fusion technique was clearly a superior Dharma Gate that emphasized the fundamental principle of Yin and Yang and offered a reliable interpretation of the universe and all things within it.

Therefore, he did not plan to abandon the way of Qi-fusion. Of course, he also wanted to practice the Devouring Technique, as it could more quickly and conveniently extract and absorb the energy of rare and wondrous treasures, clearly more beneficial than detrimental.

In the Cultivation World, it seemed no one else could directly extract and absorb the energy from such rare treasures.

As for the Shadowless Sword Technique, Yusuf Zuck would certainly not let it slip by. Regardless of whether or not the Shadowless Sword Technique was as powerful as the original author claimed, possessing sword moves and techniques was much better than randomly hacking and slashing.

After quietly secluding himself for seven days in his room, Yusuf Zuck stepped out to find that the mountain foot was deserted, with no clue where the green-robed cultivator had taken those over a hundred Nascent Soul experts. In any case, Chicken Mountain had been very quiet since that day.

Some of the great demons were cultivating, others were teaching Ruth Wilcox and Ember Vance how to cultivate, and still others had gone out to play.

After verifying that everything was normal, Yusuf Zuck began walking towards the back mountain.

In the back mountain, there was a herb garden that Yusuf Zuck had never visited before, but according to Hei Jiao, there were Ginsengs in the garden that were over a meter long. There were seventy-two kinds of herbs, all of which were rare treasures seldom seen in the world, each with at least five thousand years of growth.

That meant all the herbs in the garden had been growing for five thousand years.

The thought of five-thousand-year-old herbs made Yusuf Zuck’s tongue wag. He remembered watching a cartoon when he was young called "The Ginseng Kids," where the Ginseng child was no more than a thousand years old.

But here in the garden, there were Ginsengs over five thousand years old.

Yusuf Zuck reached the garden, which was neatly arranged like a vegetable plot, about an acre in size. There were flowers of various colors, all blossoming from those herbs. For example, the Ginseng bloomed red flowers, there were purple flowers, orchid flowers, and even tiny black fruit.

Aside from recognizing Ginseng and Lingzhi, Yusuf Zuck did not recognize the rest.

"Hmm, let’s try with Ginseng first," Yusuf Zuck said as he plucked out a Ginseng that was more than half a meter long and thicker than the mouth of a bowl. He then sat down cross-legged.

The Devouring Technique, despite having ’devour’ in its name, was not something eaten with the mouth but used the Dharma Gate of the Devouring Technique to absorb the Spiritual Energy or energy from rare treasures.

Yusuf Zuck quickly operated the Devouring Technique’s circulation cycle, and moments later, his Telekinesis suddenly condensed into a point. With a rapid hand gesture, like sealing a spell, he pointed at the huge Ginseng. Ripples appeared on the Ginseng, which then withered and decayed rapidly, as an immense vital energy was extracted like a wave of Qi.

"Devour!" With a single word from Yusuf Zuck, the unseen yet airy energy was siphoned through his mouth with a swoosh.

The Ginseng turned into ash and scattered on the ground, while Yusuf Zuck felt a surge of vital energy!

Ginseng, an herb that replenishes Qi and blood and is a powerful tonic, could cause nosebleeds if even a small, one- or two-year-old root is consumed whole, let alone a five-thousand-year-old massive Ginseng.

So Yusuf Zuck’s face turned flush in an instant, a robust vitality coursing rapidly throughout his body, to the extent that even his manhood stood up, and his throat burned hotly, a sign of overheating!

Of course, Yusuf Zuck did not halt the circulation of his energy. As the Devouring Technique continued to operate, the heat gradually dissipated, and all vital energies converged automatically into his Dantian.

Nine Golden Cores rippled briefly. However, it was a fleeting moment, for the Ginseng, despite its medicinal power, was inconsequential to someone with nine elixirs like him.

"Hmm, this feeling is very gratifying," Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily, suddenly realizing that after absorbing the rare treasure, the Swallowing technique brought a sense of satisfaction, akin to enjoying a delicious meal.

Indeed, the Swallowing technique could be used on any object with energy, with Spiritual Power, whether it was a stone or even the physical body of a cultivator.

This is why orthodox cultivators considered it a form of Sorcery.

For instance, if a cultivator at the Mid Foundation Establishment Stage stood before Yusuf Zuck, he could utilize the technique to extract that cultivator’s essence, spirit, and vitality, swallowing it whole and leaving the cultivator a dried husk.

Very terrifying!

This technique carried an extremely strong offensive and plundering destructive nature, and as long as your Divine Sense was vast enough, you could devour endlessly.

"Continue!" Yusuf Zuck raised his hand and, using Telekinesis, plucked out a Ginseng. Then, with quick hand seals, he coordinated his Telekinesis with the Swallowing technique mantra, directly extracting the essence of the second Ginseng.

His speed had increased a lot compared to before.

Continuing...

Yusuf Zuck grew faster and faster; some Ginseng hadn’t even been unearthed when he directly consumed all their essence with his mouth!

That essence, invisible clumps of energy, could only be rapidly extracted with the coordination of Telekinesis and the Swallowing technique.

In just an hour, Yusuf Zuck suddenly found that half of the various herbs in the small garden of a mu had been devoured by him, yet there was no sign of a breakthrough to the Mid Foundation Establishment stage in his nine Dantian cores—they had just become a bit more solid.

Yusuf Zuck knew it wasn’t because the precious herbs’ Medicine power hadn’t been absorbed by him, but because it was too difficult for him to advance at this stage, requiring an amount of energy that could be described as ’vast’!

"No good, I can’t keep devouring like this, wasting heaven’s gifts, I should leave some for Ruth and the others," Yusuf Zuck stood up. Ordinary treasures were no longer enough to support his advancement; perhaps Golden Cores could, but he would need a large number of them!

"My Cultivation Level is still low. If my Blood Beads do not open again in two years and my Cultivation Level does not increase, even mastering Swordsmanship will be of no avail. I still won’t be able to annihilate the Joyful Sect or save little Paisley," Yusuf Zuck paced alone in the medicine garden.

In this world, he had to accelerate his cultivation and become stronger quickly. Two years was a very short time, which would pass in the blink of an eye.

So what if Paisley Kirk achieved success in her cultivation and returned to the Joyful Sect, but his Cultivation Level had not progressed? Then he could only watch helplessly as little Paisley married Michael Wolfe!

"I must find a way to speed up my own cultivation."

"Right, I still have a Nascent Soul. If I devour the Nascent Soul, can I advance?" Yusuf Zuck suddenly remembered he still had Clay Wolfe’s Nascent Soul in his ring.

At that thought, he was about to immediately take out the Nascent Soul to absorb it.

But just as he was about to sit down, the Black Jiao King rushed over in a panic: "Master, Master..."

"What’s wrong?"

"The... the grand demon of the Vast Mountain has come to visit!" the Black Jiao King said, panting.

"Again? Is it the same three as before?" Yusuf Zuck placed the Nascent Soul he had just taken out back into the ring.

Out of the three from before, only Ray Dickson came, and the other two are their second-in-command, and damn it, one of them is a human!" the Black Jiao King said with a strange expression.

"Oh?" Yusuf Zuck’s eyebrows instantly lifted. When Ray Dickson had sent him a congratulatory gift before, it included Elixirs, which seemed to be refined personally by their second-in-command, right?

So it turns out to be a human!

A human acting as the second-in-command among the grand demons of Vast Mountain!

"Let’s go, let’s meet them; this is interesting!" Yusuf Zuck was extremely curious. Why would a human be in league with the grand demons? And to have climbed to the position of second-in-command, it looked like there was a story there.

And since they had come to him proactively this time, they must surely be seeking him out again, right?
