Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

The wild boar had already gone, never to return. Because, as Tan Shuchang had predicted, whether it was transforming into this appearance or practicing such an incomplete cultivation technique, it had been schemed against. The cultivation technique had been given to him by a monk from Jinjin Wansheng Temple, he had wanted to use it to take revenge on the enemy who had killed many of his relatives and friends, but the monk had asked him to let go of his hatred and forgive his enemies. Because this monk coveted the man's physical constitution to cultivate a sufficiently powerful demon and monster mount for himself. Originally, this wild boar had been completely controlled by the monk, but an accident allowed the wild boar to break free and escape to these mountains where it had been roaming ever since. Tan Shuchang thought about it and, based on the principle of giving payment after hearing a story, he specifically erected a vacant grave in these mountains for the wild boar so that its soul wouldn't lack a resting place after its death. Although Tan Shuchang was unclear about the status of Jinjin Wansheng Temple in this world, the fact that a monk could produce a cultivation technique that schemed a living person into becoming a wild boar demon showed that the influence of Jinjin Wansheng Temple was profound. And this wild boar had recklessly careless characteristics. If it had not been for the cultivation technique he deduced, even if the boar had regained consciousness, it would have been controlled again. With the cultivation technique he deduced, however, the boar could happily fight to the death with the other party. Because if it truly came down to it, the hidden trace of Blood Pool power in this technique would instantly assimilate the wild boar, allowing it to control some of the Blood Pond Divine Power. After all, as a disciple of the Sacred Gate deducing a cultivation technique, it was very reasonable to have a personal mark in its core. At that time, Tan Shuchang had also brought a python, a tiger, and an old wolf from the nearby mountains. These three beasts shared common traits. They were once human, their practiced cultivation techniques were incomplete, and they all bore marks of being controlled by others. Although the cultivation techniques practiced by the three were different, with the previous experience of deducing the boar's cultivation technique, Tan Shuchang quickly got the hang of it. In the same half an hour, Tan Shuchang not only completed the deduction of these three cultivation techniques but also deduced over ten similar types. Because these personalized demon techniques each corresponded to specific requirements. For example, to practice the wild boar cultivation technique, one needed the flesh and blood of a wild boar and had to consume it raw continuously for seven days to begin the cultivation. Then by imitating the habits of a wild boar, one could possess part of the fleshly Divine Skills. However, this was the crucial point where one had to follow exceptionally harsh precepts to practice this technique. No desire for wealth, no craving for fine foods, no longing for fancy clothes, no yearning for beauties, no engagement in fights, and no constructing of splendid houses. These are the six basic precepts, and based on these, many more were expanded. Such as not desiring wealth, which even involved not coveting money upon sight. Similarly, not desiring beauties also forbade indulging in romantic fantasies and sexual thoughts. Once one started practicing, they had to be like dry wells and decaying wood, devoid of any human emotions, devoted solely to arduous cultivation every day. And once any of the precepts was broken, even just being moved by the sight of a beauty, one would transform into a demon and fall into Demon Technique, never to recover. If it weren't for these harsh precepts, the cultivation technique practiced by the boar, despite being incomplete, would still be a fine technique because the cost was minimal, the difficulty of entry was very low, and even the time required to make progress was relatively short, requiring only a few months. But... how many could adhere to such precepts? Not being greedy upon seeing wealth, not being lustful upon sighting beauty, not being righteous upon seeing evil, not feeling hungry upon seeing delicious food... just these four were enough to make ninety-nine percent of people break the precepts. Thus, at the creation of this technique, the intention was to make people break the precepts. And the purpose was to cultivate suitable demon and monster servants. At this moment, the wolf, tiger, and snake, after receiving the cultivation techniques deduced by Tan Shuchang, also regained their consciousness like the wild boar, and all the negative influences on them were expelled. Then, Tan Shuchang learned their very similar stories from these three. These three also had grievances and sought revenge, so they followed rumors in the martial world to find Jinjin Wansheng Temple, passed the tests successfully, and obtained the cultivation techniques they needed! Although the three weren't practicing the wild boar's cultivation technique, the precepts they needed to follow were even more stringent. Thus, basically, as soon as they entered the initial stage, a slight provocation would lead them to break the precepts and fall into Demon Technique, turning into the current demon and monster forms. And these three had been controlled originally until a mysterious accident allowed them to escape, and then they took refuge in this mountain forest. It was then that they had already lost their humanity and consciousness, becoming no different from pure wild beast demons. "Damn this Jinjin Wansheng Temple!" "A bunch of monks screwing around!" "These monks are really sons of bitches!" After the snake, tiger, and wolf finished their stories and empathized with each other, they couldn't help but curse the monks of Jinjin Wansheng Temple. Tan Shuchang merely smiled faintly and did not stop them, for they weren't cursing him, and indeed, the actions of the monks of this temple deserved to be cursed.
