Chapter 12 Devouring the Heavens
The meal at the Lin Family was very unpleasant. In the end, Su Yang tactfully refused Lin Ze Ping's offer to send him off and left the Lin household alone.
Su Yang was in a foul mood. He hadn't anticipated so many issues awaiting him upon his return home. His father's affairs were easy to handle; what truly gave him a headache was Lin Qingru's situation. He couldn't bear to upset Lin Ze Ping, and that issue was rather tricky to navigate.
Wandering along the old path, Su Yang unconsciously found himself in the suburbs. Looking around, he realized he was standing on a hillside, which happened to be the infamous Mass Burial Grave in Nanluo City, a place rumored to be haunted.
Destiny's Tome also featured a section on ghosts, which were essentially described as energy entities that could influence brainwaves and cause hallucinations. Of course, the more powerful entities could directly affect the human body and even cause harm.
Having nothing else to do at the moment, Su Yang took out Destiny's Tome. The second page was already open, but he hadn't examined it closely yet.
Destiny's Tome was originally an ancient manual. However, ever since Su Yang's blood had entered the book, it had magically fused with him. The book would appear whenever Su Yang needed it.
Flipping to the second page, Su Yang briefly scanned it. The page mainly detailed methods of Taoism Cultivation, which were divided into three kinds: cultivating Taoism, Demonic Sect, and Buddhism.
According to the records, there were four major realms of cultivation, each named Heaven-Earth Profound Yellow. And within each major realm, there were four minor stages.
After practicing the first page, Su Yang's realm was essentially at the Yellow Grade's Foundation Establishment Stage. The Yellow Grade was divided into Foundation Establishment, Qi Refinement, Fusion, and Spirit Tranquility. Only by starting Qi Refinement could one truly step into the threshold of cultivation, and everything prior was merely considered martial arts.
Looking at the three methods of cultivation, two secret techniques from the Demonic Sect piqued Su Yang's interest, namely Devouring the Heavens and Soul Searching Technique.
Devouring the Heavens was a method of plundering the spiritual energy of other things, transforming all spiritual energy into one's own. When practiced to the highest realm, there was nothing in the world that could not be consumed, and it was regarded as the most powerful secret technique of the Demonic Sect!
