Most people in the cultivation world have a superficial understanding of blood cultivation, which is what monks call evil cultivation.
The alchemy monk who talked to Xing Rang said that blood cultivation is divided into two branches, one is called Chongling and the other is called nightmare blood. What people in the cultivation world call evil cultivation is basically The blood cultivator's nightmare blood lineage.
After the "Millennium War", nightmare blood gradually emerged. The original intention of the blood cultivation technique was to steal the blood of those who had the blood inheritance of the ancient true spirits for one's own use. It was aimed at specific people, not all people, but in " After the "Millennium War", those big families that originally relied on their true spirit bloodline were almost wiped out in the war. Well, this is also related to those foreign monks who raided. Compared with the ordinary monks in Central Continent, , those foreign monks are more interested in those monks with the true spirit bloodline in Central Continent, and their attacks are more vicious. The reasons will gradually emerge in the future, but after the "Thousand Years War", they are rarely able to return to Central Continent. The big families from before were found, either perished, or secluded themselves from the world, and it seemed that all of a sudden the blood cultivation technique had no use.
However, human greed has no limits.
One of the most authentic characteristics of the art of blood cultivation is the word "seize". Since you can seize the true spirit blood inheritance of people from big families, why can't you also seize some useful things for yourself from other people?
Of course, ordinary monks in the world of cultivation do not have any inheritance of true spirit bloodline, but even the most inconspicuous monks have a certain level of cultivation. Since this method can even capture the bloodline, since the original method was also created out of thin air. Yes, can you change it so that it can also attack ordinary monks... and take away their cultivation?
There are always people who are willing to go to great lengths for their own greed.
It must be said that the emergence of the Nightmare Bloodline was different from the beginning of the Blood Cultivation Technique. When the Blood Cultivation Technique began, it was one person who spread this method in the practice world of Central Continent. That person was officially recognized as the Blood Cultivation Technique. Ancestor. When the Nightmare Blood line appeared, the blood cultivation technique had been secretly spread throughout Central Continent for countless years. Moreover, the inheritance of the Nightmare Blood line could not be traced back to a certain founder. Veins appeared all over Central Continent over a period of time that lasted but was not long-lasting, and were not related to each other, like bamboo shoots after a rain or wild mushrooms in the forest after a rain.
If the emergence of the Blood Cultivation Technique is still a little bit of personal resistance to the strict oppression within the big family, then the emergence of the Nightmare Bloodline is just the most appropriate portrayal of the greed of the human heart.
Simply put, the purpose of creating the Nightmare Blood lineage is to drink the essence and blood of monks in order to gain the cultivation level of the other party.
This of course does not mean that the evil cultivator of Nightmare Blood who is refining Qi can build a foundation by absorbing enough blood essence of Qi Refining monks, nor does it mean that he can obtain all the cultivation base of the opponent by drinking the essence and blood of Qi Refining monks. Of course it is impossible. So simple. The Nightmare Blood lineage can be seen as appearing all over Central Continent at the same time. They were not related to each other at first, so there were considerable differences between them. This naturally divided the Nightmare Blood lineage into multiple different ones. faction.
Some of the most extreme sects do not practice cultivation at all. Well, it cannot be said that they do not practice practice at all, but their main method of improving their cultivation is to secretly use various means to restrain the monks who have been harmed, and then drink them They use essence and blood to improve their own cultivation. Such evil cultivators with nightmare blood can be said to be the largest in number and the ones who cause the most fear in the cultivation world. Their most prominent feature is that their faces are pale and their eyes are blood red. People call them evil cultivators. It often refers to this kind of person, such as Du Sha, who died in the hands of Qian Chao during the cold spring valley tide, and the three evil cultivators invited by this execution. They are all such evil cultivators with nightmare blood.
There are also evil cultivators of Nightmare Blood who usually have the mentality of cultivation. They do not take taking away other people’s cultivation as the main means to improve their cultivation. For them, drinking the essence and blood of monks is a great way to nourish themselves. This method has a miraculous effect of extending life when they are seriously dying, so they use this method very sparingly. Unless they are seriously injured, they do not use this method. For example, Yan Jing, he was a nightmare blood evil cultivator before his death. After being seriously injured, he drank the essence and blood of Ge Xun and became an evil cultivator of the Nightmare Blood lineage. Only then did he escape with his life.
There are also nightmare blood evil cultivators who have developed this method to another level. They can use their own blood essence to perform many powerful methods. After defeating the opponent, they will inevitably lose blood and be seriously injured. At this time, they can use the opponent's blood to Essence and blood are used to replenish oneself, and even have some amazing magical effects. For example, Tang Ping is using Xing Rang's Mind Examination Technique, which can make Xing Rang explain important things when he is irresistible and unaware of it. It is clear that there are similar methods among the evil cultivators of Nightmare Blood. As long as the opponent has an entrance to the blood essence, his past experiences, important secrets, and private matters that are not intended for outsiders will all be known to the evil cultivator of Nightmare Blood. Every detail!
The above is a general overview of the Nightmare Blood lineage. There are also many methods that may make people feel cruel or shocking.
Later, as time went by, the evil cultivators of the Nightmare Blood lineage were active throughout Central Continent, and gradually there were contacts and exchanges between different sects. Everyone was unpopular and even hated in the cultivation world. People who are restless naturally want to stick together for warmth, and therefore, the various factions of Nightmare Blood have integrated and developed.
Here is another benefit of nightmare blood, that is, as long as you practice the evil practice of nightmare blood, at least you don’t have to worry about building your own foundation. This is attractive enough. As for the key to forming a core after building a foundation, we will talk about it in the article in the future. mentioned.
One more thing to say here, although large sects like Muyang Sect and Wuling Sect dislike each other and have constant secret fights in private, they all have the same attitude towards the issue of evil cultivators, that is, as long as they are found If it is established, it must be eradicated. The attitude of other sect families is also the same, well, at least on the surface.
Now that we have talked about the Nightmare Blood lineage, let’s talk about Chongling.
Compared to the infamous reputation of the Nightmare Blood lineage, the Chongling lineage is extremely low-key.
It is so low-key that very few people know about the existence of Chongling lineage.
In fact, the Chongling lineage still continues the most primitive blood cultivation technique, and compared to the large number of people in the Nightmare Blood lineage, it is of course a large number of people. This is from the perspective of the entire Central Continent. There is a saying in the world of spiritual practice: "The evil cultivators who cannot be killed can't understand the human heart." These three words "cannot be killed" are enough to show that the number of people in the Nightmare Blood lineage is overwhelming. Compared with the number of people in the Nightmare Blood lineage, There are many people in the Chongling lineage, but the number of people in the Chongling lineage is very small. However, compared to the Nightmare Blood lineage, which is mostly casual cultivators in the practice world or from families with ill-established roots, most of the people in the Chongling lineage are either alchemy monks in large sects. , or he is a powerful person in a big family, or he has a noble status, or a prominent reputation, or his cultivation is unpredictable, or his methods are outstanding. In short, no one in the Chongling lineage is an ordinary person.
After the Millennium War, all the big families that had been famous for countless years based on their bloodline inheritance were gone. Monks with the ancient true spirit bloodline suddenly became rare. This was probably also the Chongling lineage. The reason why the number of people is also scarce.
Because from the beginning to the end, the Chongling lineage has been targeting those who have the bloodline of ancient true spirits. They also want to drink the essence and blood of others, but they cannot be just any monks, they must be those with bloodline inheritance. People, as long as they can find such a person, people of the Chongling lineage will not hesitate to open their mouths and drink the essence and blood from the other person's body.
For people of the Chongling lineage, that kind of essence and blood is what they dream of, it is the real treasure in this world, it can make their cultivation reach a thousand miles, it can make their methods shock the world, and it can ultimately help them achieve immortality. And go!
It's a pity that the remaining families with True Spirit bloodline in this world have secluded themselves from the world and are extremely difficult to find. It is too difficult for one person to search every corner of Central Continent to find such a family, so one must rely on the help of others. , which also requires that they must or be able to order others to do things for them or be attached to a powerful force to do this.
For this reason, the characters in the Chongling lineage are all well-known, and they are somewhat famous or very famous in the world of cultivation, but there are very few people who really know their hidden identities.
Of course, they knew each other's identities.
Well, it is unknown whether any monks of the Chongling lineage have found those bloodline inheritance families who live in seclusion, and whether they have obtained the True Spirit bloodline inheritance they most want from those people.
One more thing, there is also a connection between the characters of the Chongling lineage and the Nightmare Blood lineage. Of course, it does not mean that the characters of the Chongling lineage know all the Nightmare Blood evil cultivators. That is impossible. After all, the Nightmare Blood evil cultivators are really There are too many, but several guys in the Nightmare Blood lineage who are either powerful or have amazing cultivation methods are known to the Chongling lineage and have connections. After all, they are all blood cultivators. Even if they evolve to Now each other's pursuits and methods are different. We can't talk about helping each other, but at least we can still use each other.
The reason why this alchemy cultivator of the Chongling lineage hidden in the Five Spirits Sect told Xing Rang was to let him understand the origin and current situation of blood cultivation. He had only one purpose, which was to develop it while using Xing Rang. After becoming a blood cultivator, although Xing Rang's cultivation level is low, he has become a disciple of the inner hall of the Chengqi Hall. As for whether Xing Rang will choose the Chongling lineage or the Nightmare Blood lineage, it is up to him.
What the Danjie monk said later was even more astonishing. The reason why he wanted to go to the Cold Pool was because the Cold Pool was a prison between heaven and earth. After the "Battle across the Sea", the ancestors of the Five Spirit Sect The place where the ferocious beast Chaos is sealed and imprisoned. The "Secrets of Qiao Tong" that he asked Xing Rang to steal from the inner hall of Chengqi Hall records how to go deep into the cold pool, how to pass through the extremely chaotic spiritual whirlpool in the cold pool, and finally See the true form of Chaos.
"The true body of chaos!" Xing Rang repeated the words of the pill-forming monk. He seemed to understand a little, but at the same time he became even more confused.
"Senior, Chaos is...an ancient ferocious beast. What is the use of looking for it, Senior?"
"Haha, Chaos is indeed a ferocious beast, but it is a ferocious beast at the true spirit level. Alas, where can you find a true spirit level beast in this world? Even if you find it, how can you get the invincible state in the world? Where is the spirit beast blood? And the Chaos in the Cold Pool has been in a state of suspended animation since the battle across the sea. It is the easiest to attack. As long as there is a wisp of Chaos blood, I can use it to my advantage. , let alone break through the shackles of this pill formation, even if you can ascend to immortality in the future, it will be more than enough."
"But... isn't it said that Chong Ling only attacks those with true spirit bloodline? Is that a ferocious beast?" Xing Rang asked again in confusion.
"Haha, the truth is that when the art of blood cultivation was created, it was difficult to find true spiritual beasts in the world at that time. Therefore, the art of blood cultivation could only capture the blood of those people at that time, but the blood of those people was naturally not as good as the true spirit beasts. The beasts are purer. Now, the ferocious beasts at the true spirit level are in the Five Spirit Sect, so why bother looking far away?"
"Then...Such an extremely important matter...Why did senior ask me to go...Senior, wouldn't it be possible to get what you want immediately if I go?" Xing Rang asked again.
"Do you think it's that simple? In the past, many fellow practitioners of Chongling tried to plot Chaos, but in the end they all failed. Some of them were even noticed by the Five Spirits Sect and had to run away... or even leave their lives behind. Even if you have this book "Secrets of Knowledge", it will be the same."
As he said that, the pill-forming monk actually threw the "Secret Essentials of Authentication" to Xing Rang.
"Here, this book was stolen just for you to read for yourself. The Cold Pond is now a mixed place. You go there and clean it up. You can kill or drive away irrelevant people, but you have to remove them. The cold pool is firmly in your hands, and then follow the records in the "Secrets of Authentication" to find the passage to the bottom of the cold pool. As long as you can do it, I will take this bloodline of chaos as my own. I will pass on the method to you so that you can become a monk with true spirit bloodline. From now on, building foundations and elixirs will be no longer a problem. Even ascending to immortality in the future will be a matter of course, how about it?"
"...Junior, please obey!"
