Zhang Chen took the blood storage bottle and walked out of the arena.

“Congratulations to Seventh Junior Brother for winning,” everyone congratulated.

“Seventh Junior Brother is amazing.” Second Senior Sister even winked at him, making one’s imagination run wild.

On the other side, Shen Gengyuan’s expression darkened as he looked at the few of them chatting and laughing.

“Alright, the competition is over. Everyone, disperse.” Hong Longguang’s expression was relatively calm. How could someone who could exchange for a large amount of essence blood be weak?

Zhang Chen exchanged a few more compliments with everyone. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Hong Longguang shout again.

“Seventh Junior Brother, wait.”

“Eldest Senior Brother, is there anything else?” Zhang Chen was puzzled.

“It’s not convenient to talk here. Let’s go to your cave abode.”

“Great!”

Zhang Chen was not worried about anything. He nodded and agreed. Then, the two of them turned into blood light and left.

In the cave abode.

Hong Longguang took out a storage bag and handed it to Zhang Chen. “I’m about to enter seclusion to cultivate my core formation. My life is hanging in the balance, and I have descendants in the mortal world.

“There are a few hundred spirit stones and a few orthodox cultivation techniques in the storage bag. If I die, I hope you can deliver the storage bag to my descendants.”

Zhang Chen didn’t accept it. “Senior Brother, are you really at ease with me doing this?”

Hong Longguang chuckled and said, “I wouldn’t trust anyone else, but you, Seventh Junior Brother, would definitely not care about a mere few hundred spirit stones. I have the ‘Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique’ and can slightly perceive other people’s emotions and desires.

Among the disciples of the Blood God Sect, you are the only one I’ve seen who doesn’t have too many desires or distractions. If you’re interested in any of the orthodox techniques inside, feel free to browse them.”

Zhang Chen still didn’t respond. He truly didn’t care about those few hundred spirit stones, but he also didn’t want to cause trouble for no reason.

Hong Longguang went to the Internal Affairs Hall to seek justice for him, and he increased the amount of blood essence exchanged. It could be said that they owed each other nothing.

Seeing that Zhang Chen was silent, Hong Longguang continued, “If you’re willing to help me, I can tell you the secret of the sect’s Core Formation.”

Hearing this, Zhang Chen fell into deep thought, but he still did not agree.

After a moment of silence, Hong Longguang said, “Previously, when I fought with someone and saw the other party use the Blood Shadow Clone Technique, you seemed to have a desire for it. Are you interested in demonic techniques?”

Zhang Chen was a little surprised. “Eldest Senior Brother’s Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique can even perceive that?”

Hong Longguang was quite pleased with himself. “This Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique is the foundational technique of the demonic sect, the main technique of the Seven Emotions Demon Palace. I was fortunate enough to obtain the first half a hundred years ago.

Although I didn’t use the second half of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires, I can absorb and perceive the seven emotions and six desires. If Junior Brother is willing, I can use the ‘Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique’ as your reward.”

Zhang Chen was indeed interested in this technique and reached out to take the storage bag, “I’ll help you with this favor, Eldest Senior Brother.”

Hong Longguang sensed Zhang Chen’s seven emotions and six desires and then smiled with satisfaction. “I don’t want my descendants to join the demonic sect, so I sent them to the nearest Silver Moon Sect territory.”

As he spoke, Hong Longguang took out a blood-red jade pendant, “As long as you’re close to my bloodline, this jade pendant will vibrate and glow. The specific location is…”

“Rest assured, Senior Brother. I’ll remember it.”

“Alright, I’ll give the ‘Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique’ to you now.” Hong Longguang took out a blank jade slip and stuck it to his forehead to copy the cultivation technique’s memories.

A moment later.

“Junior brother, please verify its authenticity.”

Without saying anything polite like “I believe you, Senior Brother,” Zhang Chen simply stuck the jade slip to his forehead.

[Detected cultivation technique, Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique. First volume. It uses joy, anger, grief, fear, love, evil, and desire as cultivation resources. The second volume, which controls the seven emotions and six desires, is missing.]

[Side effects: You will be affected by the seven emotions and six desires and become extreme. You have to experience the seven emotions and six desires tribulation once every 10 years. After passing it, your control over the seven emotions and six desires will increase. If you can’t pass it, you will sink into it and can’t extricate yourself.]

[Please wait a moment, system modification is in progress…]

[Ding! Modification complete. Side effects canceled.]

The authenticity of the ‘Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique’ was verified by the modifier. It was indeed the real deal, just as Hong Longguang had said, but only Volume 1 was present.

As for this side effect, the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Tribulation was interesting. It was considered a mixed blessing.

Those with great willpower could easily cultivate this technique, but without great willpower, it would be impossible to pass through the tribulation.

However, the modifier had canceled the side effects.

Even if he had the choice, Zhang Chen would have chosen to cancel them. He had little confidence in his own willpower.

“The technique is fine,” Zhang Chen said as he put away the jade slip.

Hong Longguang felt that he didn’t have much hope of surviving and was depressed. “I’ll also tell you the secret of the sect’s Core Formation realm. If my descendants are in trouble, help them if you feel like it.”

Zhang Chen did not answer.

Hong Longguang continued, “Do you know why I stayed at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment realm for a hundred years? It’s because all the disciples who formed the core previously disappeared without a trace!”

At this point, Hong Longguang’s eyes were filled with fear.

It was fear of death and the unknown!

Zhang Chen was not surprised. The nature of the Blood God Sect’s cultivation techniques determined everything.

When combined with the side effects of the Blood Body, these Core Formation disciples either lost their bodies or were controlled and turned into puppets.

The Blood God Sect raised pigs, and they would at most raise them to the Golden Core realm before slaughtering them.

No wonder Hong Longguang, who was about to form his core, was so anxious to make arrangements for the future.

“Why doesn’t Senior Brother continue to delay?” Zhang Chen asked with suspicion.

“Do you think I don’t want to? It was our Master’s order for me to cultivate the core formation, so I had to do it. I used the ‘Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique’ to sense Master’s emotions before and found ways to delay until now.

“If Wu Chang hadn’t died, Master wouldn’t have forced me. After all, I don’t have much lifespan left, and I would have had to form my core in the end. But now, after waiting for so long and achieving nothing, Master doesn’t want to wait anymore.”

Hong Longguang said with a tone of helplessness.

Zhang Chen was stunned. It turned out that this matter was related to him as well.

However, it was Wu Chang who wanted to kill him, so he had only himself to blame.

“Thank you for reminding me, Senior Brother,” Zhang Chen said, arching his hand in thanks.

“Ah-” Hong Longguang sighed. “I’ve already explained everything. I won’t disturb Seventh Junior Brother anymore.”

“I’ll send Eldest Senior Brother off.”

After bidding farewell to Hong Longguang, Zhang Chen returned to his cave.

The Golden Core stage? I still need to accumulate my foundation. When I reach the Core Formation stage, I must have the ability to deal with the late Core Formation stage, he thought to himself.

Even though he had been modified so that he wouldn’t be controlled or possessed, he still needed to face Elder Blood River at the late Core Formation stage.

At the very least, he had to have a way to escape from the hands of a late stage Core Formation cultivator.

“The Core Formation stage is still far away. I’ll start by practicing the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demon Technique to see if it works,” Zhang Chen thought, pulling his mind back and sitting cross-legged to begin his cultivation.

Using the seven emotions as cultivation resources, he naturally had to sense the seven emotions before he could absorb them.

Therefore, the first thing he had to cultivate was a secret technique to sense the seven emotions.

Because it involved elusive emotional desires, this secret technique was very difficult to master.

When practicing, one must maintain strong emotional fluctuations.

Because of this, Zhang Chen could only constantly recall his fear when he crossed over and his excitement when he found the modifier.

Even so, it took him a full year to master this secret technique.

Now that he had mastered it, he naturally had to try it out and see if it worked..
