"For just one drop of blood, such a tiny price you're not even willing to pay?" The Pú Yāo frowned in displeasure.

  "Lightly?" Zuo Mo's tone was full of discontent: "Taking blood from me is still lightly?"

  He immediately said resolutely: "This matter is not worth discussing, how can a crystal stone treasure be compared to a small life?"

  Pú Yāo leaned on her chin for a moment before saying: "Alright, I don't want your essence blood. Instead, give me the earth energy you absorb every day."

  "Earth Energy?" Zuo Mo was taken aback, but he reacted extremely quickly, immediately recalling the strange sensation of being connected to the earth that he had felt when fighting against the Cyan Nail Crocodile.

  There's a problem!

  Pu Yao is indeed very cunning, it turns out his target was this all along.

  "What is terrestrial qi?" he asked with feigned ignorance.

  Why, Pao You is a thousand-year-old demon after all. Although Zuo Mo tried his best to conceal it, the astute Pao You still discovered the clue from the subtle changes in his eyes. Pao You smiled and didn't hide it: "The Demon has always believed that the earth is the mother of all things, and the power of the earth is boundless. When they cultivate, they pay special attention to communicating with the earth. Your body refinement breakthrough first stage, this stage is called Mountain Body. The realm of Mountain Body can communicate with the earth, as long as your feet are on the ground, you will have infinite power."

  Listen carefully to the left.

  "Of course, those ignorant guys from the Demon Clan wouldn't understand anything profound. This method is simple and direct, easy to grasp, and since demons originated from beasts, they are more intimate with the earth than cultivators. This method is extremely easy for them to learn. But you, unexpectedly having a talent for body refinement, it's somewhat beyond my expectations."

  "Is the power of the earth really obtained from the great earth?" Zuo Mo asked back.

  "Hmm, your understanding is also correct." Pu Yao nodded.

  "I'll give you the geomancy, which means my mountain will stagnate?" Zuo Mo continued, he wasn't stupid.

  "That's right." The púyāo continued nodding, calmly acknowledging.

  "No way!" Left Mo immediately shook his head.

  Pao's face was puzzled: "Why? The mountain body said it had the power of all things, but in fact it was very stupid, not as good as your sword array. Compared to 'Dajian Yeshou' and 'Xiao Jianyeshou', it was far inferior, and there were so many crystal stones, why didn't you do it?"

  Zuo Mo sneered: "As for the power of 'Great Thousand Leaf Hands' and 'Small Thousand Leaf Hands', I don't know, but the power of this mountain, I have personally experienced. How to choose between them is simple."

  Pu Yao was taken aback, momentarily speechless. He had overlooked Zuo Mo's reality. However, for a heavenly demon who had experienced thousands of years of ups and downs, this little problem was nothing. He quickly found a solution: "So that's it, this is easy. The 'Great Thousand Leaf Hand' has seven chapters, but you can only cultivate one chapter. The 'Small Thousand Leaf Hand' has three hand styles that you can cultivate. I'll give you half of the first chapter of the 'Great Thousand Leaf Hand' for free. And I'll teach you the first style of the 'Small Thousand Leaf Hand' for free."

  "Absolutely free, no additional conditions." Pu You swore solemnly.

  "Alright, then bring it on." Zuomo Man said nonchalantly, his mind already made up to trick Pu Yao this time. He learned half of the "Great Thousand Leaf Hand" and one move of the "Small Thousand Leaf Hand", then told Pu Yao that he still didn't agree, heh heh...

  Just thinking of Pu's furious and vomiting blood appearance, he suddenly felt extremely relieved in his heart.

  Pu You didn't waste any words and directly handed over half of the first chapter of "Dà Qiān Yè Shǒu" to Zuo Mo.

  Zuo Mo naturally didn't decline and took it. As he fantasized about Pu Yao vomiting blood, he began to read half of the "Great Leaf Hand".

  A few short sentences, and Luo Mo's careless words vanished into thin air.

  He was completely absorbed in what he saw.

  Unlike the abstruse "Taixi Lianshen", this half-leaf of "Daqian Ye Shou" uses simple and clear language, just like a wise man asking and answering himself calmly.

  It starts with the topic and first talks about controlling power.

  Demons use their bodies as vessels, constantly tempering and refining them, transforming their power into internal energy. With a flick of the wrist or a stomp of the foot, they can fill mountains and overturn seas. Cultivators primarily cultivate spiritual energy, which resides within the body and is guided by the meridians. When used, it is extremely convenient. However, divine consciousness is formless and dispersed outside the body, controlled by the mind but difficult to grasp. Although demons are born with the ability to use divine consciousness, there are still differences in quality among them. High-ranking great demons can transform their mental state, manifesting the power of heaven and earth.

  Then raised a bunch of questions about divine thoughts.

  Zuo Mo's mind was directly attracted, there were many problems in it that had been troubling him for a long time, but he couldn't find a way to solve them.

  Her eyes involuntarily followed him as he walked away.

  The author answers each question one by one, using extremely simple language, and suddenly there is a feeling of clearing away clouds to reveal the truth.

  It ultimately concludes that the divine consciousness is like a mass of fog, lacking a main framework, making it difficult to control. The demon master cultivates himself, but his entire skeletal system, skin, blood, tendons, and flesh are all part of the meridians, controlled by the heart. As for the cultivator who mainly cultivates spiritual power, the meridians in his body are complex and intricate, spreading throughout his entire body, making control come naturally and effortlessly.

  While divine consciousness lacks such a pulse, they naturally disperse, and only some high-quality demons have their demon cores that seem to have this effect, which is also the reason why they are so powerful. Among the demons, there are also intelligent ones, although their bloodline inheritance is not of high quality, but they can also find new ways out.

  This "Great Thousand Leaves Hand" comes from this.

  Like a wisteria vine, like a net or a grid, one section and one leaf, the leaves are like palms, five branches are nimble, with infinite changes...

  Zuo Mo's idea was unheard of, extremely novel. Zuo Mo wasn't a yao, the yao core that Pu Yao had implanted in him had greatly increased his control over his consciousness, but compared to the "Great Leaf Hand", it could only be considered as one trick among many, and not on the same level at all.

  If he could master the "Dà Qiān Yè Shǒu", any symbol array in his hands would be able to exert its strongest power!

  In addition, alchemy and artifact refinement can also benefit from it.

  Just as Zuo Mo was hastily reading on, he suddenly stopped, already halfway through!

  He was being scratched right where it itched, but the other person suddenly stopped scratching. He felt an indescribable discomfort. Damn it! Why stop here?!

  Zuo Mo, who had originally planned to make Pu Yao spit blood, now deeply felt what it was like to spit blood!

  No way, hold on, can't let the evil spirit get its way!

  Zuo Mo reluctantly withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes, and rested for half a day before gradually calming down. After calming down, Zuo Mo came to his senses - this was the usual tactic of Pu Yao. If he had really made the trade, there would probably be countless traps waiting for him in the future.

  Calm down, calm down...

  He muttered to himself repeatedly in his heart, desperately warning himself not to let the Pú Yāo succeed. This hypnotic self-warning finally played a certain role, and he decided to learn the first style of "Xiǎo Qiān Yè Shǒu" before doing anything else.

  Pu Yao nodded quickly: "Alright, I'll teach you the first move."

  "Xiao Qian Ye Shou has a total of thirty-six moves, and this first move is one of the most basic and simplest ones. Many subsequent moves are related to these two moves in some way or another, you must practice it until you're extremely familiar with it." Pu Yao said solemnly, an unusual sight.

  Looking at Pu Yao's attitude, it seemed like he was going to personally instruct him, and Zuo Mo couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

  Pu Yao was all talk, but Zuo Mo had never seen him take action before. Now that he could see Pu Yao demonstrate in person, his interest was piqued.

  "The Great Thousand Leaf Hand and the Small Thousand Leaf Hand were both created by a heavenly demon from ancient times, who walked an anti-heavenly path." The bamboo demon's words were filled with respect: "When a demon is born, their achievements are largely determined. The demon core is innate, it is the source of all a demon's power. This heavenly demon was just an ordinary small demon back then, but eventually became a heavenly demon, truly deserving of admiration. You don't understand demons very well, demons revere following the will of heaven, until this heavenly demon appeared and everyone realized that going against heaven also has its path. It was from then on that demons' cultivation began to be divided into two categories: following heaven and going against heaven. Today you've learned this technique, don't tarnish the name of the heavenly demon predecessor."

  Pu Yao's tone was stern and solemn, Zuo Mo secretly cursed in his heart, but couldn't help feeling full of anticipation. From Pu Yao's introduction, these two techniques had quite the origin!

  "Watch closely."

  As soon as the voice of Pu Yao fell, he raised his right hand. His right hand was slender and snow-white, perfect and flawless, with bright red fingernails that had a slight curvature, sharp as a blade.

  He stretched out his index finger, and his long, bright red fingernail lightly drew a curve in the air.

  The action is so beautiful and elegant, without any hint of vulgarity, like a flowing cloud or water, it's indescribably delightful.

  A crimson finger tip as sharp as a knife or hook flashed by, leaving behind a winding trail of blood. In the blink of an eye, a mysterious blood-red character took shape in mid-air.

  Zuo Mo's pupils suddenly constricted!

  He was shocked to discover that from the moment Pu Yao's fingers began to draw, his divine sense had been subtly uncontrollable, as if Pu Yao's fingertips had an enormous attraction to his divine sense! And in the instant when the blood-colored characters were completed, his divine sense was pulled by a powerful force, he was frightened and hurriedly controlled his heart.

  Although he tried his best to control his mind, most of his attention was still on Pu Yao.

  The divine consciousness of Pu Yao surged into the blood-colored characters, which instantly became full and seemed to drip with blood. The bloody light churned as if it were a living thing.

  Zuo Mo felt like he was suddenly pulled into a very strange and bizarre world.

  There was no sound, no movement, as if time had suddenly stopped. Luo Mo felt his heartbeat stop, his blood stop flowing, and his muscles and hair suddenly freeze!

  It was as if this strange state had vanished into thin air, like a dream.

  Zuo Mo was finally startled, and in his dazed state, he heard Pu Yao's low and slow voice.

  "The first formula is called 'Xu Shun', it's not time stopping. It only maintains the original law of things, but at the same time, it also refuses new laws, so your feeling is like time has stopped. The two are completely different in nature, it just refuses to change. The bigger your divine consciousness, the stronger your control over divine consciousness, the larger the area you can control. However, if there's a powerful change, you still can't stop it, that will only be broken."

  "Don't even think about trying it on other cultivators unless your realms are vastly different."

  "What's it for?" Zuo Mo heard himself ask subconsciously.

  "Ho ho, can be used on magic treasures too. The spiritual energy of magic treasures is always changing. Interference effect, extremely excellent."

  Zuo Mo was shocked too much, for several days, he was in a daze. Pu Yao didn't urge him, he had a plan.

  On the fifth day, he finally made up his mind and came to Shi Hai.

  Pu Yao sat on the tombstone as usual, with his back to Zuo Mo. He knew that Zuo Mo had arrived and a hint of a pleased smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

  Zuo Mo's eyes cleared up, just as he was about to say something, his gaze swept past Pu Yao's grave and he suddenly froze.
