I’m Not a Badass

Bai Mufan and others were right in their guess. Although the path cultivated by Sellin's warriors was extremely powerful, with bodies comparable to those of demons and outstanding magical talents of humans, the price they paid was also heavy.

If you want to develop a body as powerful as the demons, you need to learn from the demons and absorb the demonic energy day and night!

This kind of behavior is absolutely extremely dangerous for the human race. The reason why the demon clan can do this is because this behavior of the demon clan has been going on for tens of thousands of years. After so many generations of reproduction, the demon clan's physical body has They are naturally close to demonic energy, so they can temper their bodies by absorbing demonic energy, but humans do not have this talent!

Therefore, there is basically only one consequence of human beings absorbing demonic energy, which is to be assimilated by the demonic energy and turn into monsters without reason or thought, which will never stop destroying everything. This is the only ending.

But...that was once.

The empress of Serlin is really very wise. She has developed a method that can greatly reduce the damage caused by the evil energy to the human body. As long as the martial soul and her own soul are fused into one, the strength of the soul will be exposed. If you absorb the demonic energy under this premise, the distortion and erosion of the soul by the demonic energy will be minimized. As long as the warrior can endure the pain of the physical body and keep the physical body from collapsing, he can Just like the demons, the physical body becomes stronger and stronger through the tempering of demonic energy!

In other words, if you want to absorb demonic energy, you must first cultivate to the state where the martial soul and the divine soul are integrated into one, which is equivalent to the Yuanshen state of a traditional warrior. Below this state, you cannot use the strengthening method of quenching the demonic energy.

However, as mentioned above, there is a heavy price to pay for absorbing demonic energy. Although the fusion of the martial soul and the divine soul allows the warrior to maintain his soul from collapse, the erosion of the physical body by the demonic energy is real. If the demonic energy is absorbed, When the amount reaches a certain limit, the demonic energy that has been dormant in the body will suddenly go berserk!

And this situation is actually the calamity of the demon clan!

During the rampage of demonic energy, if there is no way to survive this disaster, rely on your own strength to suppress the demonic energy again and refine most of it, otherwise you will go to a dead end and completely become an irrational monster!

This situation is very similar to the Yin Qi backlash, but there is one difference, that is, if the human warriors do not have the confidence to face the next Yin Qi backlash, they can stop practicing, and the Yin Qi will no longer accumulate, although their own The realm of cultivation will always stagnate at the current level, but at least you don't have to bear the risk of nine deaths, which means you can at least continue to live.

But the practice of absorbing demonic energy is different. If you want to stop absorbing demonic energy to avoid demonic calamity, then doing so will only be counterproductive and cause the "erosion degree" to increase rapidly!

In addition, there is another drawback to the human race's practice of absorbing demonic energy, that is, if the power of the martial soul and the demonic energy are activated excessively at the same time in battle, the two forces with different properties will collide in the body, although it will bring extremely powerful power. But at the same time, it will also increase the erosion of the demonic energy, making the demonic energy in the body become "ready to move" and approach an explosion, which means that the evil catastrophe will come early.

If you want to suppress this situation, you can only calm down and absorb more demonic energy, similar to "fighting fire with poison", so that the demonic energy in the body can calm down again and wait until the "right" time to explode.

This is equivalent to falling into a vicious cycle, but Serlin currently has no better solution. For the time being, this is the only way to suppress the erosion.

After experiencing several battles in the arena just now, especially at the last moment, facing those incoming tentacles, Mu Lengyue excessively activated the power of her martial soul and the demonic energy to collide in her body, which caused the demonic energy in her body to collide. It became a little unstable and the erosion rate increased significantly.

At that moment, the demonic energy almost spread out uncontrollably, so Bai Mufan noticed something was wrong. At that time, he felt an aura similar to demonic energy on Mu Lengyue's body. Others might not be able to detect it at all, but he has the magical skill of "Prying Eyes", and he can't escape if there is any abnormality. His eyes, coupled with the fact that he had been to the demon world and dealt with the demon god Kailuo who was sealed underground, were very familiar with the demonic energy, so he could detect the slightest thing wrong.

However, until the end, Bai Mufan did not dare to be completely sure of his guess, and could only think that his feelings were wrong.

And the price that Serlin warriors pay for gaining great power is not just that.

In addition to the demonic calamity, Serlin's warriors are still cultivating the power of martial souls in their bodies to strengthen the power of their magical powers, so they also have to face the crisis of Yin Qi backlash!

That's right, demonic calamity and Yin Qi backlash are two terms that scare countless human warriors and demon warriors, but Serlin's warriors have to bear these two prices at the same time!

In other words, if a Serlin warrior survived a demonic calamity through a narrow escape, but failed to survive during the backlash of Yin Qi, his cultivation would be completely destroyed, or he would be killed directly!

It wasn't so serious originally, but who allowed Serlin warrior to still have demonic energy in his body? If you don't listen to the backlash of Yin Qi, Yin Qi will trigger the demonic Qi to riot again, so the destruction of your cultivation is considered light. According to Serlin's experiments and experience for more than half a century, most of them People died immediately.

Facing the double risks of demonic calamity and Yin Qi backlash, this is the heavy price paid by Serlin warriors to gain two powerful powers at the same time.

There is still a lot of room for improvement on this path. If the difficulty and risk of cultivation cannot be greatly reduced, this path is destined to not be popularized nationwide, because it is too difficult and too dangerous, and only a few geniuses can Only one can take this path, and there is a high possibility of dying on the way.

Back then, there were actually two paths in front of Mu Lengyue. One was to take the traditional path, which was conservative but low-risk. The other was the new path led by the empress. It was powerful and had great potential. risks of.

Mu Lengyue resolutely chose this more dangerous path, not only for the sake of stronger power in the same realm, but also because of another benefit of this path, which is that the dependence on male yang energy is greatly reduced.

Practicing the power of demonic energy and martial soul at the same time will double strengthen your strength. Although the cultivation is difficult, as long as you master the skills and have a certain amount of talent, the speed of cultivation is actually very fast, but it is slightly inferior to those who absorb male yang energy. A practicing warrior.
