Bang! Bang! Bang!
And so it continued, from trying to failing, until the eighth attempt.
A formless thorn was finally fully condensed by Jiang Che in his mind.
"I finally succeeded!"
A gleam of light appeared in his weary eyes as Jiang Che took a deep breath, his heart gradually becoming excited.
It wasn't easy at all, it almost felt like he was going to die from the pain, and now Jiang Che felt as if his head wasn't his own.
"Next is the Soul-Sealing Seal! My minions, you're in luck..."
After resting for a moment and sighing in his heart, Jiang Che immediately shifted his focus to the Soul-Sealing Seal.
Just like with the formless thorn, he began to try again and again.
Fortunately, the Soul-Sealing Seal wasn't like the formless thorn; even if it failed, it wouldn't hurt much.
Time flew by, and three days passed.
Outside Peach Grove Valley, Jiang Che walked in the forest.
After a few days of practice, Jiang Che had fully mastered the Soul Capturing Technique.
Whether it was the formless thorn or the Soul Capturing Technique,
with effort, he could now condense three formless thorns in his mind simultaneously, and he could also easily perform the Soul-Sealing Seal.
Today, he left the valley, intending to test the power of the formless thorn on a fierce beast.
After enduring so much, Jiang Che wanted to see the actual effect of the formless thorn.
Unfortunately, within a ten-mile radius centered around Peach Grove Valley, because of Jiang Che himself, no fierce beast dared to come close.
So, Jiang Che had to run beyond ten miles.
Wandering back and forth in the forest, Jiang Che's dark nose sniffed in the air, seemingly searching for something.
"Got it! Let me see, who will be today's lucky one?"
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he followed the scent into the forest.
Soon, Jiang Che arrived at a canyon.
Before he got close, there was already noise coming from the valley, with faint beast cries.
Jiang Che slowed down, cautiously moving closer.
A minute later, through the gaps in the branches and leaves, Jiang Che gazed at a mud pit in the valley, his eyes gleaming.
The turbid mud pit, only an acre in size, was filled with mud.
At this moment, a group of giant tusked pigs was rolling in the mud pit, making a series of cries.
Two big ones, a dozen small ones, it looked like a big family.
Boom!
In an instant, Jiang Che's massive tiger body burst through the branches and leaves, charging out like lightning, reaching the mud pit in just a few moments.
"Roar!"
Upon discovering a huge tiger attacking, the tusked pigs let out terrified cries, stumbling over each other as they fled the mud pit.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Jiang Che shot out a formless thorn.
The target he chose was the largest tusked pig in the herd.
Boom!
As the formless thorn hit, the tusked pig that was still running was like struck by lightning, suddenly stiffening and rolling on the ground.
"Aw-aw!"
The tusked pig lay on the ground, with no visible external injuries, yet letting out cries of pain.
Its limbs weakly moved, trying to get up, but no matter how it tried, it was in vain.
"Not bad, not bad!"
Jiang Che approached, satisfied with the formless thorn as he looked at the tusked pig that had lost its ability to resist.
Evidently, with a single blow, he'd hurt the tusked pig's soul, weakening its control over its body to the extreme.
With a swipe of his paw, the tusked pig was sent to the afterlife, and then Jiang Che returned to Peach Grove Valley.
He didn't enter the valley, instead stopping outside and letting out a long roar toward the sky, the tiger's roar echoing through Changbai Mountain.
Then he stood in place, quietly waiting.
Half an hour later, his minions came one after another.
The first to appear was Tiger Vanguard, followed by Big Bear, Little Bear, Niu Dali, and other beasts.
Next, Jiang Che forced blood droplets from between his brows, fusing them with his Divine Sense, transforming each into a Soul-Sealing Seal.
At the thought, the Soul-Sealing Seals suspended at his brow shot out, sinking into the brows of his minions.
Suddenly, a peculiar connection surged in his heart, linking Jiang Che with his minions.
He had a feeling that the life and death of these minions were in his thoughts.
After sending them away, Jiang Che was quite pleased.
The Soul-Sealing Seal was indeed useful.
In this way, in the future, he could use the Soul-Sealing Seal to control more minions.
By then, even the Supreme Demon Country that his third sister described was possible.
Having tried both methods of the Soul Capturing Technique, Jiang Che was satisfied, happily turning and returning to Peach Grove Valley.
...
Wulong Mountain
In the dim forest, a black shadow was hunting a giant purple-skinned lizard.
The car-sized lizard was pinned under the black shadow, torn apart in an instant, blood and flesh flying.
The hunter was a black giant tiger, Fang Yuan!
Ever since he escaped from humans last time, he returned here again.
He realized that this place, with its abundance of poisonous snakes and insects, served as a natural barrier. Humans dared not enter easily, making it an ideal hideout.
Moreover, he practiced the Demon Secret Technique, which also required these poisonous insects and beasts.
Though the giant lizard was large, it was swallowed by Fang Yuan in just a few bites.
"Hmph! Humans, it won't be long before this Demon Monarch comes out to settle the score!"
Fang Yuan's eyes were blood-red as he looked toward the mountain, muttering to himself. He then turned and disappeared into the forest, searching for his next prey.
...
Changbai Mountain
In the depths of Peach Grove Valley.
Jiang Che watched Xiao Zi with great interest.
At this moment, Xiao Zi was lying on the branch of the Bodhi Holy Tree, basking in golden light, breathing in a mystical rhythm, with faint purple qi swirling around as he inhaled and exhaled Spiritual Qi.
Indeed, Xiao Zi was earnestly cultivating.
The cultivation technique was imparted by Nangong Luo.
This technique was called the Purple Sun Breathing Technique, her cultivation method from a past life, capable of reaching the Emperor Realm when fully mastered.
Jiang Che was very comforted by Nangong Luo's actions.
For Xiao Zi's cultivation, his third sister had so generously shared her cultivation technique, showing that his past kindness was not in vain!
And with his third sister's technique, as long as Xiao Zi worked hard, his breakthrough speed would naturally greatly increase.
This also greatly benefited him.
It should be known, compared to Nangong Luo and Fang Yuan, Xiao Zi, this little guy, scarcely provided Jiang Che with tenfold feedback.
Now, with the Purple Sun Breathing Technique, it's likely that Xiao Zi's speed in providing tenfold feedback would significantly increase.
However, what left Jiang Che feeling helpless was that though Nangong Luo had passed on the technique to Xiao Zi, she never considered passing it to her own older brother.
Because she always believed she was the reincarnation of the Ancient Demon God, she ought to have a better cultivation technique.
Jiang Che: "..."
Of course, Jiang Che didn't care much whether he had a cultivation technique, anyway with the system in place, as long as he bonded with a target, whenever they broke through, he would get tenfold feedback.
Rather than cultivating himself, it was better to invest effort in enhancing Nangong Luo and the others' cultivation levels.
