What kind of cultivation technique is the Blood Binding Technique?

Lou Yi shifted his gaze to this magic in the Attribute Panel, and its description automatically appeared:

[Blood Binding Technique]: Can control the blood flow within an opponent. Usually applicable in situations with a significant realm difference, and requires obvious wounds on the opponent's body surface.

Lou Yi couldn't help but recall those corpses that died in a miserable state, indeed, they all had some wounds, more or less.

The evil cultivator probably first broke the defenses of those ordinary people and then used the Blood Binding Technique to extract their blood.

As for how they handled the blood afterwards, there should be a specialized evil technique to assist with that.

This Blood Binding Technique, according to the introduction, is a magic that thrives on bullying the weak, and its effect isn't as huge as imagined.

However, with Lou Yi's current Yin Spirit Root, based on past experience, unless he enhances his affinity dozens or even hundreds of times, he will likely not advance to middle grade, so he might as well give it a try.

Moreover, in the Corpse-Driving Sect, exchanging for any magic typically requires dozens of contribution points.

After thinking it over, Lou Yi chose the Blood Binding Technique.

Now, with so many people around, he would return to study it later.

"This evil cultivator is much weaker than I imagined." On the way back, Zhang Zhiqiang couldn't help but sigh.

"How powerful can a loose cultivator be?" Du Xing scoffed, "I alone could kill him."

The others, hearing this, couldn't help but nod as well.

Those who fall to becoming evil cultivators are almost always loose cultivators, and compared to disciples from prestigious sects, they lag in both cultivation technique and magical artifact.

Disciples from major sects, barring unforeseen circumstances, can easily crush loose cultivators of the same realm.

Soon, they returned to Weicheng.

The County Magistrate, upon hearing that the evil cultivator had been decapitated, was overjoyed.

He hurriedly arranged accommodation for the group of Immortal Masters in the courtyard of his own mansion.

Five side rooms were vacated, and servants had already cleaned and laid out fresh bedding.

Lou Yi closed the door, took out a wild toad tied with a thin rope from his chest pocket.

It was caught on the way back and was intended to test the newly acquired magic.

The toad's mouth was sealed shut, and it could only look at Lou Yi with its bulging black eyes, filled with innocence.

Looking at the Attribute Panel, the magic column now had an entry for 'Blood Binding Technique (Not Initiated)'.

Focusing his concentration on this magic, the Heart Method Mantra naturally emerged in his mind:

'Congeal blood into a talisman, condense the evil into patterns, transmute essence into glyphs to suppress the profound portal...'

The key to the Blood Binding Technique lies in refining a special essence blood within oneself.

This essence blood resembles ancient script, with a special structure that seems to contain certain rules.

With it, one can figure out how to resonate with others' blood, achieving a similar control effect.

But this method is too difficult.

After pondering for a long time, Lou Yi couldn't form the essence blood resembling ancient script within his body.

Unable to initiate, he couldn't use the Attribute Panel to advance it.

However, Lou Yi wasn't in a hurry; he had plenty of time to take it slow.

As for the toad, he might as well release it, as it wasn't useful for now.

In the room next to Lou Yi's.

You Qingyi was sitting cross-legged on the bed, her shiny black hair draped over her shoulders, with a slender waist that one could easily embrace.

Her shoes and socks were removed, revealing a pair of fair feet as white as jade shoots.

Her mind was in a mess, unable to enter a state of cultivation no matter what.

She kept recalling how Senior Sister Yang said not to easily get involved in romantic entanglements.

And then she thought about the scene not long ago where Lou Yi instantly unleashed dozens of Yin Qi Arrows.

'How is he so powerful? The Rain Technique and Corpse Control Technique being strong is one thing, but even the Yin Qi Arrow is used so skillfully, probably even surpassing those senior brothers and sisters.'

'It's a pity his Spirit Root is so poor, otherwise his future achievements would surely know no bounds.'

'If he had a superior Spirit Root, it wouldn't be unreasonable to travel the path of immortality hand in hand…'

'Pah pah pah, what are you thinking?'

'You Qingyi, you promised your father, your heart should only be on the Great Dao, and you can't return home unless you've cultivated to Golden Core...'

'No, I must sever mortal ties in time, definitely not let it become a hindrance on my cultivation path.'

Thinking this, You Qingyi suddenly opened her eyes, a firm resolve flashed in her eyes.

She left her room and came to Lou Yi's door, raising her hand ready to knock.

But her hand stopped mid-air, unable to bring itself down.

'If I openly talk to him, won't it hurt his feelings? If he becomes disheartened as a result, wouldn't that be my fault?'

You Qingyi thought it over, turned around, and left.

But after a few steps, she turned back reluctantly.

'I still have to tell him. Delaying will only lead to chaos.'

'No, no, he saved my life. I can't be so selfish.'

'You Qingyi, what should you do after all?'

You Qingyi's jade-like hand lifted and put down repeatedly, ultimately doing nothing, and returned to her room in frustration.

What she didn't know was that all her movements were sensed by the incredibly perceptive Lou Yi, as if playing out right before him.

'What does You Qingyi intend to do?' Lou Yi was a little puzzled.

The so-called woman's mind is as inscrutable as the sea, and he naturally couldn't guess the rich inner drama of the other.

Shaking his head, he began studying the 'Blood Binding Technique' again.

In the next two days, after completing their mission, Lou Yi, You Qingyi, and the others toured Weicheng before leaving.

The path of cultivation is too monotonous, and occasional travel among the mortal world can serve as a form of relaxation, temporarily loosening the tight strings.

However, Lou Yi noticed that in the past two days, You Qingyi's attitude toward him had grown even more extreme than before.

Not only did she not speak, but there was barely any eye contact, as if the two had become complete strangers.

'What is this little girl up to?' Lou Yi was at a loss for words.

That aside, there was no progress in the Blood Binding Technique. Its difficulty far surpassed any he'd encountered before.

Just when Lou Yi and the rest were preparing to return to the sect.

The County Magistrate rushed over again in a panic: "Immortal Masters, don't leave yet!

Someone else has died, in exactly the same manner as Landlord Jiang's family before!"

"What?!" Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.

Du Xing frowned and said, "That evil cultivator has already been killed by us. Are you sure it's a fresh body?"

"Absolutely!" The County Magistrate, with a stout figure and twitching mouse whiskers, looked somewhat comical, "Just yesterday someone saw Old Cui wandering outside, and now he and his whole family are dead!"

"Could there be a second evil cultivator?" Zhang Zhiqiang speculated.

"One is to be slain, two is also to be slain, let's quickly resolve it, I still need to return to the sect to cultivate," Du Xing said impatiently.

To him, the strength of the evil cultivator was nothing special.

After all, they were loose cultivators, far inferior to the means of prestigious sects.

The group arrived at the crime scene, a two-story stone house with a courtyard, considerably better than average folk.

Old Cui the butcher was a well-known, overbearing figure in the nearby villages, similar to Lou Yi's old neighbors, the Qi Family, with eight people in his family.

Yet now, they were all reduced to dried corpses.

And their home was twenty kilometers from where Landlord Jiang's family had been slaughtered.

Seeing the tragic deaths of Old Cui and his family, the disciples of the Corpse-Driving Sect were filled with rage.

"Damn that evil cultivator, it wouldn't be too much to cut him into a thousand pieces!"

"This time, let's not kill him so quickly; better to capture him alive and see if there are accomplices," You Qingyi suggested.

Hearing this, Du Xing, Yang Haiying, and the others' eyes lit up.

Killing one evil cultivator is different from killing a group; the contribution earned would differ.

Lou Yi alone frowned.

He felt that something was wrong; didn't the evil cultivator realize their presence?

If they wanted to commit such atrocities, they could completely wait until they left; why jump out now?

But seeing the others' enthusiasm, Lou Yi opened his mouth but refrained from voicing his concerns.

After all, he was just a second-layer Qi Cultivator, with little influence.

On-site, Yang Haiying's face twitched with pain, yet she produced a piece of yellow talisman paper and said, "This Tracking Talisman is precious, it's my last one."

Seeing this, Du Xing was delighted: "Fellow Daoist Yang, you've gone all out. If we slay the evil cultivator this time, you'll take the lead credit!"
