CHAPTER 20: UNORTHODOX CULTIVATION TECHNIQUE

After Liu Wei turned the bodies into fertilizers, he did not plant yet.

He did not have the leisure time to continue planting.

That was why he asked the System if once he level up his Agricultural Domain he would have an autonomous worker and she confirmed it, bringing him delight.

Since he has to focus on other things now and has to put aside his hobby, he already decided he would level up the Agricultural Domain first, so he would have a constant supply of food.

It would only cost him a hundred System Points.

Of course, he has to pay off his debt first.

Just wondering when he would have the opportunity to pay off his debts made him sigh hopelessly.

After all, he expected he would have to wait for another six months if he did not come across the Princess.

Sitting inside the library, not planning to read a book, Liu Wei was now left to ponder about the first stage of the Blood Demon Heart Sutra in his mind.

According to what he learned, at the Body Tempering Stage, he must temper his organs, especially his heart, to make them resilient enough to withstand demonic qi pulses.

When Liu Wei learned about demonic qi pulses, he instantly connected them earlier when he suddenly killed the alchemist out of impulse.

He might be able to control the demonic qi pulses as long as he followed the sutra.

Hence, without hesitation, he closed his eyes and sat in the lotus position, meditating.

Thankfully, he was still at the Body Tempering Stage, so he was not too late to build a strong foundation in accordance with the sutra to tame the Demonheart Origin Body.

The peak mortal rank cultivation techniques Liu Wei mastered were all orthodox.

In other words, Liu Wei was only able to temper his body through body-forging exercise, not Qi breathing, as it was only possible once they opened their meridians.

Of course, the tea he drank provided massive benefits during his cultivation, too.

So, it was counted as external elixirs—what cultivators would describe when tempering the body.

However, the Blood Demon Heart Sutra was certainly an unorthodox cultivation technique.

Liu Wei was not surprised, knowing that the physique he possessed was by no means ordinary and normal.

In other words, if he continued to cultivate an orthodox style of cultivation technique while having an unorthodox physique was certainly a bad idea.

Turning into a monster might be feasible.

Of course, the library has an unorthodox cultivation technique.

However, the moment Liu We understood the style of an unorthodox cultivation technique, he did not bat an eye towards it anymore.

After all, it was risky and dangerous—having little to no benefit from cultivating it.

It appeared that an unorthodox could be an orthodox to special people.

How they were described was only socially constructive.

According to the Blood Demon Heart Sutra, to temper his organs, especially his heart, requires the Blood Refinement Breathing—provided by the Blood Demon Heart Sutra.

Through the Blood Refinement Breathing, he would have to absorb demonic qi but filtering it.

In the orthodox manuals, a cultivator can not properly breath qi if there is no dantian.

If a normal cultivator attempted to breath qi when there is no proper circulation center or storage, or what it was called as dantian, it would be an excruciating process, only jeopardizing their body.

However, Liu Wei’s physique was by no means ordinary.

It was a cursed physique that leaks demonic qi by default.

By practicing the Blood Refinement Breathing, forcibly seeping the demonic qi into the organs first, each breathing would filter out and bleed out impurities.

As a result, the organs would act as temporary vessels to withstand corruption brought by the physique before a dantian even exists.

However, that also meant experiencing an excruciating process.

Liu Wei then practiced the Blood Refinement Breathing.

Just because he had the Demonheart Origin Body, it did not exempt him from the painful process of the Blood Refinement Breathing.

It was more painful than the Blazing Furnace Breathing.

The Blazing Furnace Breathing he practiced generated intense internal heat to purify his organs and toxins from the body.

It was painful.

But bearable.

Compared to the Blood Refinement Breathing.

As he drew the demonic qi to his heart, filtering out impurities, he spat out black blood a minute later.

Liu Wei wiped off the remaining black blood on his lips as he smirked.

That sure was painful.

Liu Wei recalled the time when he was still in high school back on Earth, where he experienced physical abuse from his classmates.

Of course, he inevitably fought back, leading him to become one of the must not disturbed nerds in the school.

Liu Wei shook his head and tossed the unnecessary thoughts at the back of his head.

It was now time to temper his lungs.

Earlier, the goal to temper his heart was to make his heart beat in rhythm with will power, not slaughter impulses.

Now, the goal to temper his lungs was to allow breathing without corruption.

Liu Wei closed his eyes and meditated.

He now has to inhale killing qi and then exhale the purified essence.

He repeated for a minute before he coughed out black blood once again.

Thankfully, he expected it to happen, so he already prepared a bucket in front of him, where he also spat out the black blood earlier.

He wiped remaining black blood on his lips with his sleeves, knowing how impure it was.

Not only it contained concentrated demonic qi, it was so greasy.

As much as possible, he did not want to touch it.

Liu Wei then prepared for the tempering of the liver.

The tempering of the liver was quite a tricky one.

After all, he was required to steep in blood qi during battles.

However, at the moment, he did not have an enemy.

There was another way to temper the liver, though.

It was through visualization.

Through visualization, Liu Wei would be able to stabilize his temperament, killing only when needed, not compelled by the physique’s desire.

In other words, he must practice resolving wrath and impulsive killing urges.
