The first layer involves communicating with the strange tumor, guiding its energy out to enhance one's own qi-blood. At this stage, one reaches the initial phase of abnormal beings.

The incantation reads:

Close your eyes and concentrate, to touch it with your mind, they are like boiling soup, I am a cold stream, guiding it gently, passing through the high building, descending into the dantian, like leading a fierce horse along a suspended thread...

Meanwhile, Feng Jiuyue warns learners that they can only approach the strange object once in a short time.

If contacted multiple times, the tumor might undergo uncontrollable mutations, and the energy may not necessarily be available for personal use.

The second layer involves merging with the tumor, becoming one, completely devouring it, reaching the intermediate phase of abnormal beings.

However, this was a level he hypothesized, one he had never personally reached.

He even believed he hadn't achieved perfection in the first layer.

Upon reaching the intermediate phase of abnormal beings, one can then attempt to interact more with strange objects to prepare for the third layer.

The third layer involves continuously devouring the tumor, thereby achieving a thorough transformation of the entire body, reaching the non-human realm.

He also did not know what abnormal consequences might occur, reaching the high phase of abnormal beings.

After reading it, Lou Yi had to admit that Feng Jiuyue was a martial arts prodigy, even worthy of being called a grandmaster, for only a grandmaster could create a cultivation technique.

He looked at the white clay box beside him, which contained the strange object Feng Jiuyue mentioned.

Lou Yi was currently by a deserted riverside, and Feng Heguang, along with his daughter, had retreated far away, knowing Lou Yi was about to interact with the strange object, no one dared to come near.

This strange object was the origin of the demon in the Demon Summoning Scripture.

Without this key object, no matter how miraculous the Demon Summoning Scripture was, it could not be effective.

Lou Yi opened the white clay box and discovered two broken black scales lying quietly within, one large, one small.

The next moment.

An invisible and terrifying radiation emanated from these two scales.

In his daze, Lou Yi seemed to see iron horses clashing, fierce ghosts roaring, rolling Yin wind… finally transforming into a blood-red pupil devoid of emotion.

At the same time, his whole body began to itch, swell, and heat up, with an unusual sensation first appearing at his left shoulder.

With a 'pop,' Lou Yi closed the white clay box, causing all the radiation to disappear immediately.

But the changes to his body did not stop, seeming almost irreversible.

On his left shoulder, a fist-sized red bulge gradually formed, resembling a peach.

It was covered with countless ferocious blood vessels and a large number of goosebumps visible to the naked eye.

This bulge grew from Lou Yi's body, yet he knew it was not entirely under his control, with his true strength being unable to penetrate it, blocked by another mystical force.

'Thump!'

'Thump!'

'Thump!'

His heightened senses allowed him to hear faint heartbeats coming from within this flesh sphere, accompanied by a 'hissing' sound as if it were whispering in his ear.

It seemed that something was brewing inside, about to break out.

These were things he had never witnessed in Feng Heguang's daughter.

Was it because they hadn't practiced their family's ultimate skill, or was it due to his own overly strong qi-blood leading to such a weird transformation?

With true strength circulating in his eyes, Lou Yi discovered that the tumor emitted a faint blue glow, and the terrifying energy it contained was blue?

At the same time, he noticed the name in the attribute panel's column had changed from the representative green of health to a green tinged with blue.

This was the first time blue had appeared; previously, in dangerous situations, it would either turn yellow or red.

It seemed less like a warning and more like a manifestation of bodily changes.

Of course, a faint plus sign also appeared afterward, but Lou Yi didn't press it, as doing so would negate the effects of cultivation.

The tumor continued to mutate, and the speed of the heartbeat quickened.

Upon reaching a critical point.

'Boom!'

Something was born inside the tumor.

Immediately after, a three-foot-long black snake's phantom materialized in Lou Yi's mind.

The serpent's form was somewhat blurry, but its two emerald-green gem-like eyes shone brightly, leaving an indelible impression.

'Screech!'

The black snake's invasion instantly provoked a violent reaction from the original master of Lou Yi's mind, the mighty eagle.

A five-foot-tall eagle glared angrily at the black snake before diving aggressively towards it!

The black snake clearly hadn't expected such a formidable presence here and hastily confronted the eagle, only to be easily caught by its talons, letting out a pitiful screech.

The black snake was instantly torn in two.

One half exploded with a 'bang,' turning into countless black mist.

The other half swiftly retreated into the tumor, seemingly shivering within it.

The eagle opened its beak and inhaled contentedly, absorbing all the black mist into its body, causing its size to visibly increase to six feet tall.

'It can still be like this?'

Observing all of this, Lou Yi couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Of course, Cang Ying's victory was a good thing for him, representing that his mental strength had been elevated again.

Lou Yi started to comprehend the Demon Summoning Scripture.

This martial art was not difficult; now far beyond the Martial Master Peak, Lou Yi took just the time to drink a bowl of tea to understand part of it.

Meanwhile, a new entry appeared in the cultivation section of the attribute panel: Demon Summoning Scripture (Beginner 0/10)

He spent ten points of energy to upgrade it: Demon Summoning Scripture (Entry 0/50)

'It actually doesn't require other critical items?' Lou Yi was somewhat surprised.

In a moment of thought, it was not difficult to understand, after all, that peculiar scale should be the critical item needed, which had already been encountered earlier.

Demon Summoning Scripture (Entry 0/50) → Demon Summoning Scripture (Skillful 0/300) → Demon Summoning Scripture (Mastery 0/2000+1 Dragon Saliva Grass)

When the Demon Summoning Scripture advanced to the Mastery Realm, a barrier finally appeared, requiring the Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure Dragon Saliva Grass to progress to the next level.

Lou Yi activated the Demon Summoning Scripture to communicate with the tumor on his shoulder, yet the tumor showed no reaction, unlike what Feng Jiuyue had recorded.

'Fine, fine, you're looking down on me, huh?' A hint of menace flashed in Lou Yi's eyes.

In the next moment, a large stream of red True Strength surged from his body, completely enveloping the tumor.

'Shriek!'

The domineering thundering cry of the Cang Ying timely echoed into the tumor, causing it to tremble slightly and start conveying a weak willingness to negotiate.

Seeing this, the True Strength retracted completely.

The tumor reluctantly expelled a thread of blue Qi-Blood into Lou Yi's body.

It merged with the red Qi-Blood eagerly waiting beside it, eventually transforming into a newly born purple Blood Qi.

This purple Blood Qi was much thicker than ordinary red Blood Qi.

It was imaginable that as its quantity continued to increase, the strength of Lou Yi's Qi-Blood, which had long stagnated, would gradually rise.

Lou Yi glanced at the attribute panel, and a new entry appeared in the Realm section.

[Name: Lou Yi]

[Age: 23/160]

[Realm: Martial Master Peak (82/?), Martial Artist Peak (57/?), Initial Stage Abnormal People (0/600), Qi Cultivation Second Level (190/600)]

[Cultivation Technique: Yellow Extreme Breathing Technique (Second Stage, Perfection), Skin Refining Technique (Minor Achievement 0/5000+1 Blood Marrow Crystal), Profound Yin Technique (Skillful 0/1000+Moonlight Dew), Demon Summoning Scripture (Mastery 0/2000+1 Dragon Saliva Grass)]

[Skill: Lou's Axe Skill...]

[Magic: Corpse Control Technique...]

[Talent: Petrification...]

[Energy: 20868]

Looking at the Initial Stage Abnormal People, a prompt appeared: the Demon Summoning Scripture at the Mastery layer can increase proficiency by up to three points per day.

It takes two hundred days to enter the next layer?

Lou Yi felt it was somewhat slow.

He wanted to open the white clay box to contact the peculiar item again, but recalling Feng Jiuyue's warning, he forcefully suppressed this impulse.

'Forget it, let's be more cautious.'

The tumor protruding on the shoulder was too ugly, so Lou Yi had the Cang Ying communicate 'friendly' with the black snake inside it.

It retracted slowly back into the body, ultimately transforming into a long strip embedded in the flesh of his left arm.

Of course, even if the tumor was unwilling to retract, Lou Yi, possessing the Disguise Talent, could slightly rearrange the surface muscles to forcefully cover it without revealing any abnormalities.

'Eh?'

Lou Yi found that when the tumor retracted into the arm.

The bead formed by the Blood Shadow deep within his left palm became unprecedentedly quiet, as if it had encountered a natural enemy.

'Is this one thing overcoming another?'

With the new martial art in hand, Lou Yi could feel that the long-stagnant Qi-Blood was starting to move forward slowly but steadily.

He anticipated what kind of changes would occur after breaking through to the next layer.

Putting away the peculiar item, Lou Yi went to Feng Heguang.

"Daoist, how did it go?"

"I can control it," Lou Yi said with a smile.

He demonstrated a 'magic trick' to the other, causing the tumor to grow and retract from the shoulder, making Feng Heguang's eyes reveal an expression of ecstatic joy.

"Please, Daoist, teach me!"

"You must first learn a powerful martial art and train your heart to become strong to communicate with it," Lou Yi explained.

"Where do I go to learn it?" Feng Heguang asked in awe.

"To be honest, besides being a disciple of the Corpse-Driving Sect, I am also the Sect Leader of the martial sect Wangjiang Sect," Lou Yi laughed, "Would you be willing to become a disciple of the Wangjiang Sect?"
