Chapter 755: Demon Sealing Clan's Decline
Chapter 755: Demon Sealing Clan’s Decline
"Hmm? This is also the Demon Sealing Strike?" Yuan raised his eyebrows when he saw the second jade tablet.
However, when he read the contents, he realized that it was a completely different technique. Although it functions similarly to his Demon Sealing Strike, this technique was meant for daggers instead of the sword.
When he realized this, Yuan immediately began studying the technique, as this technique would allow him to seal demons with the Starry Abyss so that he no longer needed to rely just on swords.
A few minutes later, Yuan closed his eyes and digested all of the information from the jade tablet.
Ding!
<You have learned Demon Sealing Strike(Dagger)>
<Rank: Heaven>
<Mastery Level: 1>
<Description: Consumes 1,000,000 Qi. Must wield a dagger to activate. An ancient dagger technique used to seal demons>
"Uhh… Did you just learn that technique?" When Wan Yu saw a profound aura suddenly emit from Yuan's body, he realized that Yuan had just comprehended a new technique, but he still asked for confirmation.
"Eh? I thought you said anyone could learn these techniques." Yuan looked at him with a surprised face, misunderstanding Wan Yu's words.
"Yes, you can. I was just surprised at how quickly you learned the technique. You're full of surprises." Wan Yu chuckled.
"Oh, I see. Then can I ask you a few more questions?"
"Of course. Let me hear them." Wan Yu nodded.
"Are there any limitations to how many techniques I can learn from this place?"
"Nope. You can learn as many techniques you want. There are no limitations."
"Great, then my second question is… Are there any rules about this place that I should know about?"
"Yes, there's a few of them, actually." Wan Yu nodded, and he continued, "First, you are not allowed to share these techniques with outsiders."
"Two, you are forbidden from selling or trading these techniques even to fellow demon sealers. You must receive permission to teach other demon sealers. As an official lecturer, I am allowed to teach other demon sealers, but I am limited to what I can teach."
"One last rule you should keep in mind is that these techniques, while they were created to seal demons, they can also seal humans to a certain extent, and if you're caught sealing humans, you will be killed or crippled by the Demon Sealing Clan or the Demon Sealing Grotto."
"I-I understand." Yuan nodded.
Thankfully, he sealed Senior Qi in his own world, not this world.
As for the rule that forbids him from sharing these techniques, Yuan will obviously have to ignore this rule in order to teach the others demon sealing techniques.
Furthermore, he has already broken the rule more than once.
Yuan returned to studying the techniques shortly after, and he wouldn't stop until he learned enough techniques for everyone.
Wan Yu was shocked when he saw this.
'Why in heavens' name does he need to learn this many demon sealing techniques? It's almost like he's learning a technique for every weapon out there!' Wan Yu cried inwardly.
An hour later, Yuan returned to Wan Yu and said to him, "I will be leaving now. Thank you for helping me today. I learned a lot."
"You're leaving already?"
"I will be back tomorrow to practice some more with the artificial demons." Yuan said.
"Alright. If you ever need anymore help and I am here, you can always come to me." Wan Yu nodded.
"I will."
Yuan left the Grand Library shortly after and returned to the hotel.
"Lulu, I am going to try and cultivate Technique Transmission in the real world so that I can transfer the techniques to everyone later." Yuan said to her.
"Okay, I will stay here until dinner then."
Thus, Yuan logged off by himself and began trying to learn Technique Transmission in that world as well.
Once it was time for dinner and everyone gathered in the dining room, Yuan told them the news.
"I have acquired a demon sealing technique for everyone here, but I will need a few days to learn a technique that will allow me to transfer the techniques directly into your mind."
"Although we can do this in Cultivation Online, I am not really supposed to share these techniques, so I'd rather do it in this world. It might also be a little quicker if we do it this way."
"That's fine. Take all the time you need." They said to him.
The following day, Yuan returned to the Demon Sealing Clan's Grand Library, and he went straight to the area with the artificial demons.
'There's already people here?'
Despite arriving shortly after sunrise, all of the artificial demons were already occupied, so Yuan could only wait.
While he waited there and watched the others practice, the lecturer from yesterday noticed Yuan and approached him.
"Young man, I never got your name yesterday."
Yuan turned to look at the middle-aged man standing beside him and said, "My name's Yuan."
"Yuan, huh? I am Tang Zheng, an official lecturer here for the past ten years. I haven't seen you here before until yesterday. How long have you been a demon sealer?"
"Not long."
"That's perfectly fine. Despite being new, you have a very impressive demon sealing aura, especially for someone at your cultivation base. Do you belong to the Demon Sealing Clan or the Demon Sealing Grotto?" Tang Zheng asked.
"I'm not actually officially affiliated with either." Yuan said.
"I see, so you're from one of the branch families. If you want, I can recruit you into the Demon Sealing Clan right now, unless you've already been recruited by Wan Yu. It would be a pity if that was the case."
"Pity? Why would it be a pity?" Yuan asked with a questioning gaze.
"As everyone is aware by now, the Demon Sealing Clan is declining. We're currently in our weakest state ever since the clan's creation. At this rate, the Demon Sealing Clan will continue to decline until it's inevitable end, hence why we're recruiting any talent we can find."
"If you join the Demon Sealing Grotto, that's one less talent we have and one more step towards our doom, which is an immense pity since the Demon Sealing Clan is the reason the cultivation world is so peaceful today."
