How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 323 - 0318 The Twenty-Move Agreement

Chapter 323 -0318: The Twenty-Move Agreement
The entire No Demon Academy, only had twenty slots for representatives to participate in the grand competition.
Compared to the numerous students from the No Demon Academy, these spots were incredibly scarce and were almost always reserved for those in the Late Innate stage or even the Peak.
“The cultivating tower is also overcrowded, it seems many are ready to make an all-out effort to fight for a slot,” remarked Chen Yu.
Being able to represent the No Demon Academy in the grand competition was an honor in itself, not to mention the various opportunities within the competition. Moreover, the final rankings came with rewards that even those in the Guiyuan Realm coveted.
Moreover, once missed, the chance would not come again for five years.
The grand competition also had an age limit of no more than thirty years, and after another five years, many would surpass this limit and no longer qualify for participation.
So, the opportunity could not be missed.
Chen Yu didn’t pay much attention to the battle for slots.
His Master had already made his expectations clear: if he couldn’t last twenty moves against Yuan Chen, he shouldn’t participate.
“Currently, my Demon Pattern Qi far surpasses the average Late Innate stage. I won’t be defeated by Brother Chen in a head-on clash, but my movement technique is still lacking!” Chen Yu recognized his own shortcomings.
In recent times, he had been focused on improving his cultivation, practicing the Secret Pattern Demon Body, falling behind in his movement technique.
Right away, Chen Yu went to the Evil Wind Valley to practice the “Evil Secret Technique.”
This movement technique, to a certain extent, also belonged to the demonic path.
Chen Yu had studied the “Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record,” and approaching this movement technique should be a bit easier.
Roar~
A turbulent wave of pitch-black Evil Qi burst forth from Chen Yu’s body, and in an instant, he transformed into a shadowy figure, shooting out like an arrow.
Having comprehended the essence of evil, even if he switched to the demonic path, this essence remained and provided a certain enhancement to Chen Yu’s movement technique.
Boom, boom, boom~
Chen Yu sprinted back and forth within the Evil Wind Valley, leaving a deep pit on the ground at every stopping point.
Soon, several afterimages of Chen Yu were formed, followed by the creation of a Devilish Evil domain.
Within the domain, Chen Yu’s speed was further amplified, and the entire domain put tremendous pressure on the enemy.
…
Half a month passed, and Chen Yu left the Evil Wind Valley.
“Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow” cultivated to the fifth layer, I shouldn’t be much slower compared to Brother Yuan Chen,” Chen Yu was highly satisfied with his cultivation results.
“When the ‘Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record’ reaches the second layer of Great Success, I’ll go and spar with Brother Chen.”
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
Having made his decision, Chen Yu immediately returned to his residence for a final closed-door cultivation, attempting to break through to the second layer of Great Success of the “Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record.”
Inside the secret chamber, Chen Yu sat cross-legged and pulled a “black fog bead” out of his storage bag.
This bead was the byproduct of his body after consuming a Demon Cleansing Pill to expel the demonic forces from his body.
Under the action of his mysterious heart, that tremendous demonic force condensed into a black bead, which was the one in his hand.
“The power within this bead was originally expelled from my body; if I take it again, it should be more conducive for absorption!”
Chen Yu placed the black fog bead in his palm, circulated his cultivation technique, and absorbed its power.
And indeed,
The demonic power from the black fog bead was rapidly absorbed by Chen Yu, quickly integrating into his True Qi and physical body.
Within the Qi Sea, the Demon Pattern Qi further increased, and a dark, glossy pattern in the center gently swirled, emitting an incredibly unsettling aura.
From afar, the Red Flame King lay nearby, seemingly asleep but actually in the midst of cultivating.
“Eh? This kid’s making such quick progress?”
Sensing the strong waves of demonic intent from Chen Yu, the Red Flame King opened his eyes for a glance.
“This cultivation technique is no simple matter, and indeed, this child’s talent in Body Cultivation is extremely powerful, which is why he’s making such smooth progress,” the Red Flame King observed for a few moments and commented.
While Chen Yu’s talent in cultivation was average, his talent in Body Refinement was remarkably astonishing.
Just as the Red Flame King was about to close his eyes and continue resting, he suddenly sensed an unusual fluctuation within Chen Yu’s body.
After a detailed perception, a shine flashed in the Red Flame King’s eyes.
“Is this guy even human? He’s just at the early stage of Innate and has already condensed a whiff of ‘True Yuan Foundation,’ probably without even realizing it himself.”
The Red Flame King approached in surprise, scrutinizing Chen Yu.
Ordinarily, geniuses would be able to condense some Half-step True Essence before advancing to the Guiyuan Realm.
These geniuses were without exception at the Innate Peak, with some at the Late Innate stage, but they were much rarer, one in ten thousand.
But Chen Yu, merely in the early period of Innate, had already condensed a whiff of True Yuan Foundation, which, although sparse and of low quality, was already a miracle.
Of course, all this was probably because Chen Yu had switched his cultivation technique mid-journey.
The original “Yuan Sha Divine Skill” was extremely powerful, and Chen Yu cultivated it to a very deep level.
And midway, he switched to the even more ancient and mysterious “Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record,” starting to cultivate all over again, making his True Qi even more formidable.
Still, the Red Flame King found it all incredible.
“Kid, what secrets do you hold?”
The Red Flame King suddenly spoke.
After a while, Chen Yu woke from his cultivating state and looked at the Red Flame King seriously, thinking, “Has he noticed the secret of my mysterious heart?”
The mysterious heart had always been Chen Yu’s greatest secret. This heart not only greatly increased his physique and self-healing abilities but could also suppress other forces, devour bloodlines for his own use, and within it was an independent mysterious space.
It was hard to imagine just what kind of treasure this mysterious heart was.
But he knew that he absolutely could not reveal this secret.
“What’s up?” Chen Yu feigned ignorance.
“You’ve already condensed a whiff of True Yuan Foundation!”
The Red Flame King’s demeanor became more solemn.
“True Yuan Foundation?” Chen Yu was astonished.
He experienced the strength of True Yuan firsthand.
When sparring with Brother Yuan Chen, as soon as the Half-step True Essence appeared, Chen Yu’s powerful finishing move disintegrated in an instant.
“It seems you don’t know, maybe it was an accidental creation,” the Red Flame King said.
“Is this the rudimentary form of True Yuan?”
Chen Yu’s Spiritual Sense delved into a strand of dark and shiny pattern at the center of his Qi Sea.
Indeed, it was an accident, an accident caused by Ren Han.
“Haha, it seems I should thank Ren Han after all.”
Chen Yu laughed heartily.
However, upon further thought, this strand of rudimentary True Yuan had appeared accidentally and was too insignificant in quantity, hardly serving any purpose.
Chen Yu did not know the method to condense Half-step True Essence, and since the appearance of this rudimentary True Yuan, there had been no change or growth.
Moreover, he was currently only at the Early Innate stage, and his Qi Sea had not yet stabilized. Would there be any accidents if he started to condense Half-step True Essence now?
“Kid, you have already condensed a strand of rudimentary True Yuan. This king happens to have a Secret Technique that can allow you to condense the rudimentary True Yuan into Half-step True Essence while cultivating your Innate True Qi and continuously increase it!”
Red Flame King seemed to glimpse Chen Yu’s thoughts, and his words made Chen Yu’s heart tremble.
“However, in exchange, you have to give this king some benefits!”
Red Flame King did not hide his true intentions.
Chen Yu was very wary of Red Flame King. He himself was at the Early Innate stage, and so was Red Flame King, which is why Chen Yu had never provided any resources for him.
“Fine!”
After contemplating for a while, Chen Yu felt the trade was completely feasible.
If he could successfully condense Half-step True Essence, it would become a significant ace up his sleeve.
With his strength improved, it was only right to give some benefits to Red Flame King.
“Twenty fire cores!”
Chen Yu took out twenty fire cores from his storage bag, all of which were of Early Innate and Innate Middle Stage, not too high in quality.
The high-quality fire cores were all sold during the last trading event.
“Kid, are you that ignorant? The value of this Secret Technique, is it something that can be exchanged for these twenty fire cores?”
Red Flame King was quite indignant.
This spell was also obtained by him accidentally, but at the time he had already broken through the Guiyuan Realm, thus he never used it.
The value of this technique was self-evident; almost all the strong people below the Guiyuan Realm would desperately vie for it at any cost.
Chen Yu fell into thought again, giving too many fire cores made him uneasy, and Red Flame King probably wouldn’t care for other items.
“How about this?”
Chen Yu took out a stem of Black Blood Strange Grass from the Light Silver Crystal Space.
This was his find in the Blood Burial Garden, and since it was too precious and of no use to him, he had kept it stored.
“Eh? Blood Awakening Spirit Grass, you actually have such a treasure.”
Red Flame King was somewhat startled.
The goods on Chen Yu were not what ordinary Innate Strong People could possess.
“Well, it’s barely acceptable!”
Red Flame King pondered for a while and then agreed.
He knew that Chen Yu would not give him too many cultivation resources, but this “Blood Awakening Spirit Grass” could help to stimulate the awakening of Bloodline Power.
The Fire Scale Beast’s body already contained some bloodline of the Holy Beast Qilin, and if it could be further enhanced, the bloodline might become even more terrifying.
For the time being, Red Flame King could not change into another body and had to reside within the Fire Scale Beast’s body.
Truth be told, the Fire Scale Beast’s body was incredibly strong, far superior to a human body, but as a human being, Red Flame King naturally did not wish to become an ancient beast.
Subsequently, Chen Yu completed the trade with Red Flame King.
After the successful trade, Red Flame King consumed some fire cores and rested once more.
As for the Blood Awakening Spirit Grass, he did not consume it but stored it in a storage bag he had demanded from Chen Yu, seemingly for another purpose.
Half a month later.
When Chen Yu absorbed all the demonic power within the black fog bead, the second layer of the “Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record” also reached the Great Achievement Realm.
“Peak of Early-stage Innate!”
Chen Yu felt that his cultivation had reached a bottleneck and was not far from the Innate Middle Stage.
During this period, he also cultivated the Secret Technique given by Red Flame King and successfully condensed Half-step True Essence, albeit not much.
One day, Chen Yu ended his seclusion and went to his senior brother Yuan Chen’s residence.
“Junior brother, are you ready?”
Yuan Chen showed a slight smile.
“Yes, senior brother, please go easy on me during the match.”
Chen Yu smiled as well, teasingly.
In truth, he was now absolutely confident that he could withstand twenty moves from Yuan Chen.
Immediately afterward, the brothers went to the vice-principal’s residence.
“Begin!”
Yi Lantian wasted no words.
Buzz boom!
Suddenly, a layer of dark magical light coated Chen Yu’s body surface, adorned by a pattern of ancient and mysterious veins, as a surging demonic aura soared into the sky.
On his arm, a glinting Demon Claw Secret Pattern emerged, along with half a demon pattern that connected with the Devil Claw Secret Pattern, extending towards Chen Yu’s back.
Facing Yuan Chen, Chen Yu did not take any chances, attacking with full force.
Roar~
With a fierce howl from the demonic wind, Chen Yu charged forward in a blink, arriving in front of Yuan Chen.
If it were an ordinary Late Innate opponent, they would probably be overwhelmed with fear at this moment, losing their will to fight.
But Yuan Chen’s expression barely changed, appearing serene.
Boom bang!
Chen Yu’s fist fiercely came crashing down, forming a Demon Pattern Black Fist with a commanding chill.
Swish!
Yuan Chen lightly tapped with his toe, hastily retreating to avoid the punch.
However, Chen Yu’s reflexes were incredibly fast, and he explosively chased after Yuan Chen.
Yuan Chen smiled slightly, knowing his junior brother had improved greatly in all aspects, and it was time he did more than just dodge.
