Cultivating with Bragging System

The Hehuan Sect.

Like the Asura Sect, it holds a very special status within the Demonic Path, and few dare to provoke it.

However, the strength of the Asura Sect lies in its overwhelming individual power. Its members grow stronger through constant fighting, destruction, and slaughter, making them nearly invincible among their peers. The Hehuan Sect, on the other hand, derives its power from its extensive network of connections. Nearly every influential figure in the Demonic Path has an intimate or two from the Hehuan Sect. A little pillow talk is all it takes for these figures to grant them enormous face.

Cross someone from the Asura Sect, and you are either killed on the spot or, if you manage to escape, they are not the type to hold a grudge and hunt you down. The matter is usually considered settled.

But if you provoke someone from the Hehuan Sect? Those women are incredibly united. If one sister is wronged, a whole group of sisters will come to her aid, calling upon friends and companions to summon a swarm of powerful figures from The Demonic Path for support. After all, even demonic overlords have their pride. If you bully my intimate companion, aren’t you slapping me in the face? If I don’t stand up for her, how could I ever hope to share a blissful night with her again?

This is precisely why those who offend the Hehuan Sect are relentlessly pursued to the death. Even death offers no peace. Their Essence Blood is taken by the Ming Blood Sect, their bones by the White Bone Sect, and their souls by the Ghost King Sect, Profound Nether Sect, and others, leaving them no chance of reincarnation. A truly miserable fate.

In terms of cultivation, the Hehuan Sect’s methods also differ greatly from those of other sects on the Demonic Path. Most other demonic sects base their techniques on internecine conflict and cannibalism to accumulate Demonic Qi. The Asura Sect is somewhat special; it does not necessarily require such acts. As long as there is constant killing, destruction, and annihilation, its followers can also accumulate pure Demonic Qi.

As for the Hehuan Sect, they worship the Six Desires Heaven Demon, one of the many Heaven Demons, who is a master at manipulating the lust of all living things, allowing them to experience ultimate pleasure. Their Demonic Qi is primarily obtained from two sources.

First, they can practice a form of dual cultivation. The Enchantresses of the Hehuan Sect can increase their Cultivation Level through the path of yin and yang dual cultivation. However, their method is vastly different from the orthodox dual cultivation passed down by the Daoist School. The orthodox path of the Daoist School emphasizes harmonizing yin and yang for mutual benefit. It values both emotion and desire, integrating spirit and flesh, allowing both partners to advance together through regulated and controlled practice. The Hehuan Sect’s path, however, is a unilateral method of harvesting.

Through special techniques, the disciples of the Hehuan Sect can harvest from their partners, absorbing yin to supplement yang or vice versa. This drains their partner’s life essence to bolster their own Demonic Qi. The harvested partner will inevitably suffer a leak of their life essence, causing their lifespan to diminish to some degree. However, the Hehuan Sect cultivators are cautious. They do not drain their targets dry in one go. Instead, they take a portion and allow the person time to recover before harvesting from them again. Superficially, their victims merely look like they have overindulged in carnal pleasures.

This way, death is not immediate, and even if it does occur, it does not appear to be the work of a Demon Cultivator. It looks more like the deceased lacked self-control and died from a disease brought on by excessive indulgence. Such incidents are common in the major cities and rarely attract any attention. Furthermore, the Enchantresses of the Hehuan Sect always operate discreetly and never make enemies rashly. Thus, among the various Demon Cultivators, those of the Hehuan Sect are the best hidden. Combined with their sect’s secret arts of concealing one’s presence, they are extremely difficult to discover as they hide within the major cities of the Human Race. It’s even possible that many cultivators from the righteous sects have been... serviced by them, becoming honored guests of the Hehuan Sect. They might have even sat and discussed the Dao with them, enjoying a delightful conversation!

Of course, Hehuan Sect Demon Cultivators wouldn’t dare to rashly use their harvesting technique on cultivators who have developed Divine Sense, as those individuals can keenly detect the loss of their life essence. Against such targets, they generally resort to their second method.

Second, they "Consume the Ram." For any being with awakened spiritual intelligence, consuming one of their own kind is the easiest way to obtain Demonic Qi, and the Hehuan Sect is no exception. However, their version of this act is different. They do not consume the "ram" whole, but rather the *unformed* "ram." An ordinary person consuming it this way could never generate Demonic Qi. But the Hehuan Sect’s techniques are uniquely profound, capable of refining this essence into the purest Demonic Qi, which is incredibly formidable whether used for cultivation or combat. The stronger the "Ram-Keeper’s" Cultivation Level, the higher the nutritional value of the "Ram’s Seed." If they can befriend prodigies and titans, consuming the potent essence of the "sacred rams" they have nurtured for years is of immense benefit to their cultivation. A single session can be worth months of arduous practice.

It is for this very reason that although the disciples of the Hehuan Sect often appear fragile and delicate in public, few of the same rank can contend with them when a real fight breaks out. With high cultivation, combat prowess, wealth, and connections, such a sect on the Demonic Path is truly terrifying.

The Jade Belt Fairy.

She was one of the protectors from the Hehuan Sect stationed in Vermilion Bird City. Skilled in her sect’s aura-concealing arts, she often disguised herself as a young songstress, wandering through various brothels. When she needed to harvest essence, she would randomly select a few lucky men who caught her eye for a night of pleasure. Of course, the price for a delightful night with her was not cheap. The life essence she absorbed, when converted into lifespan, started at a loss of at least three years. When she was in a bad mood, it was not impossible for her to drain away eight or ten years in a single night.

Nourished by countless robust men, the Jade Belt Fairy’s Cultivation Level progressed by leaps and bounds. At a young age, she had already reached the sixth layer of the Golden Core Stage, making her a highly anticipated rising star within the Hehuan Sect.

Today, she was looking for prey in All Fragrances Garden as usual. Unexpectedly, she encountered Huang Yunchong from the Sanqing Immortal Sect bringing his junior brother to seek pleasure.

Jade Belt Fairy was rather wary of Huang Yunchong. After all, competitors are natural rivals, and they were in a similar line of work. If she were discovered, it would be uncertain who would outplay whom. If the pleasure became too intense and interfered with her aura-concealing technique, exposing her Demonic Qi, it would be all over. Moreover, Huang Yunchong’s sunken, dark-ringed eyes clearly showed a man who had overindulged, and he certainly didn’t meet her aesthetic standards.

The young man in white beside Huang Yunchong, on the other hand, was outrageously handsome. He had fair skin, sharp facial features, sword-like brows, and starry eyes. His temperament was otherworldly, as if an immortal had been banished from the heavens and descended to the mortal realm.

An abstinent type!

I love it!

The moment she saw Wang Xiu, the Jade Belt Fairy felt a spring that had long been dormant within her begin to stir once more.

To be blunt, she wanted his body.

But lust aside, she still possessed basic reasoning. The Sanqing Immortal Sect’s reputation in the Demonic Path was notoriously terrible. Other Immortal Sects, like the Daoist Masters of the Longhu Immortal Sect or the Buddhist Masters from the Great Vajra Temple, would generally turn a blind eye if they encountered Hehuan Sect Enchantresses in brothels, as long as it wasn’t a murder scene.

「...」

But the Sanqing Immortal Sect... that group of sanctimonious Daoists was brimming with righteousness. Once they discovered the women were Demon Cultivators, they would feign ignorance of any prior intimacy, pull up their pants, and unsheathe their swords to kill.
