Yao Buqi pondered. “Can I ask you a few questions?”
“Since it’s a deal and not a forced sale, it’s naturally possible,” Zhou Shu said.
“Will there be any repercussions if I use medicinal pills?” Yao Buqi asked solemnly.
He had some understanding of medicinal pills. There were also some demonic beasts in the Demon Realm who relied on medicinal pills to break through their cultivation, but they were often overdrafting their future.
If they took too many pills, they would lose strength and would find it difficult to reach a high level.
“I can assure you that there will be no repercussions,” Zhou Shu said seriously.
Yao Buqi nodded. He was silent for a moment before continuing to ask, “Does the cultivation technique you’re going to give me belong to humans or demonic beasts?”
“Is there a difference?” Zhou Shu asked. He had once entered Yao Lian and Yao Qing’s dreams, so he had a certain understanding of the cultivation of humanoid demonic beasts.
As the name implied, humanoid demonic beasts looked like humans, including their meridians.
Apart from the fact that demonic beasts were stronger than humans and had innate divine abilities, the cultivation techniques they cultivated were actually the same as human cultivation techniques.
Humans could cultivate demonic beasts’ cultivation techniques, and demonic beasts could also cultivate human cultivation techniques.
Of course, this was only in theory. In reality, the cultivation techniques of the two races were somewhat different.
If humans cultivated demonic beast techniques, it would be half as effective.
And vice versa.
Zhou Shu continued, “Regardless of whether it’s a human cultivation technique or a demonic beast cultivation technique, since I’m giving it to you, it naturally suits you. Are you doubting my judgment?”
“King Zhou, I naturally trust your judgment,” Yao Buqi said. Then he fell silent.
With Zhou Shu’s cultivation level, he could even easily kill Great Demons. He had even guided Hu Li to break through to the Demon King realm. Yao Buqi had no doubts that Zhou Shu could help him break through to the Great Demon realm.
But Yao Buqi’s goal wasn’t just to become a Great Demon!
He had an unknown ambition in his heart. One day, he would become a Demon King!
In that case, he had to choose his own path carefully. He couldn’t ruin his future!
Yao Buqi pondered. “King Zhou, you said just now that if both methods don’t work, you have a third method…”
“If neither of these methods can allow you to break through, it means that your aptitude is too poor. Then, you can only use another method,” Zhou Shu said. “I’ll help you forge a divine weapon. The power of the divine weapon will help you break through your bottleneck and become a Great Demon. But with this method, your future path will stop there.”
Zhou Shu was deliberately exaggerating to scare Yao Buqi.
He had always been promoting a point among the demonic beasts, which was that using weapons was a sign of incompetence and wrongness.
He didn’t want demonic beasts to learn how to use weapons. If they were used to using weapons, then humans would have no advantage against them.
Demonic beasts were stronger than humans to begin with. If they learned how to use weapons, it wouldn’t be good for humans.
Therefore, he deliberately said this so that Yao Buqi wouldn’t choose this path.
Of course, even if Yao Buqi really chose this method, Zhou Shu had his own method. He could completely tamper with the weapon and cut off Yao Buqi’s path of continued improvement.
In any case, what he had promised Yao Buqi was to let him break through to the Great Demon realm.
As expected, when Yao Buqi heard what Zhou Shu said, his expression became abnormally ugly.
He was silent for a long time before finally gritting his teeth and saying, “I choose the second method. I want a cultivation technique!”
Although Zhou Shu had said that there would be no repercussions after consuming the pills, how could Yao Buqi trust him completely?
As for weapons, Yao Buqi couldn’t accept that the future was limited to just being a Great Demon.
In that case, there was only the second method. A cultivation technique could help him break through without any side effects.
After he got the cultivation technique, whether he cultivated it or not was still up to him.
“You’ve made a good choice.” Zhou Shu nodded. “I can tell you that the cultivation technique I’m giving you is from Gao Chongming’s lineage. Since you have an affinity with the Two Region Mountain that Gao Chongming left behind, the cultivation technique of his lineage might be useful to you.”
Zhou Shu was talking about a cultivation technique of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain.
Gao Chongming had been a disciple of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain. Although Zhou Shu didn’t know what cultivation technique he had cultivated, giving Yao Buqi a random cultivation technique from the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain could be considered Gao Chongming’s lineage…
Zhou Shu wanted to choose a cultivation technique from the Book Depository of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain that Ji Lutian had sent Yao Yi to give him.
Zhou Shu was now deeply wary of Ji Lutian. Zhou Shu felt that he had ulterior motives for everything he gave him.
This was also the case for the Book Depository of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain.
Although Zhou Shu didn’t know what Ji Lutian was planning, he had made up his mind. He wouldn’t let anyone else cultivate the cultivation techniques in the Book Depository.
His own people couldn’t cultivate them, but there was no problem giving one to Yao Buqi.
Yao Buqi was not human…
By imparting this cultivation technique to Yao Buqi, he could complete the transaction and also see if there was something wrong with the Book Depository that Ji Lutian had sent over.
If Ji Lutian was really scheming something, then the scheme would fall upon the person who cultivated a cultivation technique in the Book Depository.
Letting Yao Buqi cultivate this cultivation technique was Zhou Shu’s plan to lure the snake out of its hole.
Why not kill two birds with one stone?
Yao Buqi naturally didn’t know that there were so many twists and turns when Zhou Shu offered to give him a cultivation technique.
When he heard Zhou Shu say that the cultivation technique was from Gao Chongming, he was even more certain that Zhou Shu was an old monster who had lived since ancient times.
Otherwise, how could he have met Gao Chongming and mastered Gao Chongming’s cultivation technique?
He might even be Gao Chongming’s disciple.
But after hearing what Zhou Shu said, Yao Buqi was curious about the cultivation technique he wanted to teach him.
He didn’t know who Gao Chongming was, but the Two Region Mountain he had obtained by chance should have been left behind by Gao Chongming.
If he could master his cultivation technique, he might be able to discover more secrets about the Two Region Mountain.
Compared to this, whether he could break through to the Great Demon realm immediately didn’t seem to be that important.
Yao Buqi was confident that with his aptitude, even without Zhou Shu’s help, he would be able to break through to the Great Demon Realm one day. He just needed to cultivate for a few more years.
In comparison, if he could know more about the secrets of the Two Region Mountain, it would obviously increase his strength faster than cultivating.
Many thoughts flashed through Yao Buqi’s mind. He cupped his hands and said seriously, “King Zhou, please impart the cultivation technique to me. As long as you impart the complete cultivation technique to me, regardless of whether I can break through to the Great Demon realm or not, our deal will be considered completed!”
Yao Buqi didn’t think so in the past. But now, he felt that the Two Region Mountain was more and more important. He felt that things related to the Two Region Mountain were very important.
“Alright, watch carefully.” Zhou Shu flipped his wrist, and the jade token Ji Lutian had given him appeared in his hand.
As his spiritual essence surged, dazzling light gathered into an imposing dragon throne.
Zhou Shu took a step forward and sat on the dragon throne.
Yao Buqi was dumbfounded. This scene was the domineeringness he had dreamed of.
As Zhou Shu sat down, stars appeared around the dragon throne. He plucked a star with one hand, and a book appeared in his palm.
In Yao Buqi’s eyes, Zhou Shu was sitting on the mighty and domineering dragon throne and raised his hand to pluck a star. Then the star turned into a book in his hand.
This scene simply stunned Yao Buqi. Even a Demon King might not be able to put on such a show, yet he said that he wasn’t an ancient mighty figure!
The cultivation technique he offered was definitely not an ordinary one!
Yao Buqi’s eyes grew brighter and brighter. He stared fixedly at Zhou Shu’s right hand, wishing he could immediately pounce on it.
