The Journey of Immortal Cultivation
Chapter 240 - 151 Wen Liangyu_2

So what? She seemed to guess something, feeling happy for Wen Liangyu in her heart. Changtian is strict and proud; this, by far, is the highest praise he has ever uttered. Conversely, the fact that he gave such high praise indicates that Wen Liangyu is truly a promising individual, so much so that Changtian considers him worth cherishing.

"Are you thinking of helping him?"

"Yes. Do you remember the Blood Exchange Technique for Half-demons I told you about?"

Of course she remembered. The ancient secret Blood Exchange Technique could transform a half-human, half-demon into a pure Human or a full-blooded demon. However, Changtian’s Divine Power is presently in decline; can he withstand such a loss?

"How much of your Divine Power will it cost you?"

"Not much. But this secret technique requires a high level of control over Divine Power, and it also takes quite a long time, about 24 hours or so."

"Eh, can I stay here and watch you perform the technique? I am rather curious about this so-called Ancient Secret Technique."

"No!" Realizing he was too harsh, he pursed his lips, extended his hand to beckon, and called Wen Liangyu back from the soil.

"I have observed the aura within you these days and discovered that your mother also possessed an ancient pure bloodline. As it is, with each half of your blood belonging to Human and Demon Clan respectively, your lineage is not chaotic." Changtian paused, "I can change your blood into pure blood, but you must promise me two conditions."

Ning Xiaoxian felt that he became much more easy-going with others.

Wen Liangyu could hardly believe his own ears. For twenty years, living with a Half-demon face, he stayed confined, enduring the disdain and gossip of others, even close kin showed warmth only because he was still of use. However, now Changtian claimed he could free him from being a Half-demon.

Being smart, he immediately steadied his mind and said with decisive certainty, "I agree!" As long as he could live under the sunlight, he would agree to any condition.

"Good." Changtian flicked his sleeve, and a small blood-red Dagger fell in front of Wen Liangyu, "Take a Blood Oath, from now on following Ning Xiaoxian as master. If she tells you to go east, you shall not go west; if she commands your death, you shall not cling to life!"

Wen Liangyu seemed not surprised by this request, giving Ning Xiaoxian a deep look. Picking up the Dagger, he recited the oath loudly, then without hesitation, plunged it straight into his chest!

Even Changtian couldn’t help secretly admiring, the young man’s decisiveness was indeed talent.

Wen Liangyu had entered the God Demon Prison and learned her biggest secret. Here, she made the rules. If Wen Liangyu refused to follow her, how could Changtian let him go? In the current situation, Wen Liangyu saw things very clearly; the Oath he took brought him freedom instead.

To be stabbed in the chest with a Dagger, anyone would find it difficult to bear. Wen Liangyu’s face alternated between red and white, taking a long time to recover. He suppressed the surge of emotion in his heart, "Sir, may I ask what the second condition is?"

Changtian gave a slight smile, "Rather than calling it a second condition, I’d say it’s a gift. I have a friend who is incomparably skilled in the study of Array Formation, even more so than myself. If I remember correctly, he should reside nearby. With your aptitude and diligence, you should be sufficient. Would you like to take him as a master to learn the Ancient Array?"

Before he even finished speaking, Wen Liangyu’s body couldn’t help but tremble with excitement. With his self-control, even he couldn’t suppress the exuberance within him. All his life, he had lived in loneliness and diligent study of various unconventional methods to comfort his spirit, especially the Dao of Array Formation, which he was obsessed with, often researching for days without eating or drinking. Luckily, his Half-demon constitution was also robust; otherwise, a mere mortal would have long been exhausted to death.

A rush of passion surged through him, and he choked up, "I... I am willing!"

Today, Changtian made two of his dreams come true at once: the first to shed the identity of a Half-demon, the second to inherit the Ancient Formation. If it were ten days ago, he wouldn’t even dare to dream of such good fortune.

Unable to hold back, he knelt down and sincerely said to Changtian, "Divine Monarch’s great kindness, Liangyu will lay down his life for you in gratitude."

Changtian did not stop him, only saying indifferently, "You owe me no favors. However, if ever there comes a time when Ning Xiaoxian and I need you, you must dedicate your utmost effort. Otherwise, I will indeed make you lay down your life!"

His words were the coldest, yet Wen Liangyu earnestly replied, "I will certainly serve wholeheartedly to the end."

Changtian made a list for him of the auxiliary medicine needed for the Blood Exchange. Ning Xiaoxian sneaked a peek and wondered, "Why are there no strange or evil things? Even the medicines are just over a dozen kinds, ah, and even tianqi is included. Master Fan used the yin and yang blood of mature men and women, even the essence blood of boys and girls for Wenger’s Blood Exchange. "

"Left-handed methods and fringe schools need such bizarre materials. The Great Tao is Simple, the Ancient Blood Exchange Secret Technique is a legitimate Divine Art, employing refined and minimal ingredients, but of very high quality. The plants grown in the soil are most suitable," he glanced at Wen Liangyu, "This Little Half-demon’s lineage is actually quite pure, merely a half of pure Demon Blood and half of Human blood. Performing the technique on him is much easier than on those demons with a mixed lineage."

Wen Liangyu carefully examined the list: "Most of the ingredients listed here have been cultivated in the soil, and the remaining seeds are also available in the seed storage. I’ll go fetch them right away."

"There’s no hurry, there’s still something unfinished." Changtian gave him a deep look, "Have you decided yet, whether you want to become a Human, or a Demon?" (To be continued.
