Chapter 1200

<Chapter 1200> 1200. The Way of Radiant Ascension

Chun Yu-un suddenly whipped his head around and spotted me. He grinned.

“Did you enjoy the show? Or are you maybe interested in learning the Ghost Step too?”

“…I wasn’t trying to spy. I just happened to pass by.”

“I know.”

Chun Yu-un gave a casual reply before approaching me.

“Have you found any martial arts that catch your interest?”

“Hmm… It’s hard to say since I haven’t seen everything yet.”

“There’s one martial art that would suit you perfectly. Would you let me recommend it?”

Pretending to think for a moment, I nodded.

“Sure, let me hear it.”

“It’s called the Absorption Great Technique.”

Chun Yu-un said without hesitation. Just like in the original story.

I feigned surprise.

“The Absorption Great Technique… You mean THE Absorption Great Technique?”

“123, what you lack is inner energy. If only you had more energy… You could become far stronger than you are now.”

“I’m aware the Absorption Great Technique allows rapid accumulation of energy… And I also know its side effects.”

The Absorption Great Technique is a famous martial art.

It steals the opponent’s energy and makes it your own.

Sounds like something that could make life incredibly easy, right? But as with other powerful martial arts, there are serious drawbacks. In this case, the stolen energy itself becomes the problem.

While using the Absorption Great Technique may increase your energy reserves quickly, it severely decreases its purity.

Most advanced martial techniques prioritize purity over quantity as one progresses.

So while the Absorption Great Technique might lead to quick early gains, later on, the impure energy will cause problems.

“Don’t worry about side effects. Once you secure an important position in the Divine Devil Sect… The side effects of the Absorption Great Technique will be meaningless.”

“…How can you guarantee that?”

“I’ll stake my name on it.”

“I don’t even know your name.”

Chun Yu-un smiled quietly then stepped back.

Whoosh.

The air trembled with his inner energy. He moved his lips slightly, sending a telepathic message to me.

-I am Chun Yu-un.

After revealing his identity, he coolly disappeared.

Very skilled indeed.

As a member of the Divine Devil Sect, everyone knows who Chun Yu-un is – Little Heavenly Demon Chun Yu-un. By revealing his name, he was essentially telling me to follow him.

I stood there for a while before leaving the scripture hall. Before leaving, I noticed Chun Yu-un talking to number 366.

Number 366.

Name: Zhuge Mosun. A distant branch of the Zhuge family who was expelled for researching zombies.

In the future, he’ll be known as the Demon Brain and become Chun Yu-un’s right-hand man.

‘The possessed one is certainly busy pulling strings everywhere.’

I informed the instructor that I chose the Absorption Great Technique.

•••

“123. Follow me.”

I moved behind the instructor into a dark basement. Inside, a naked man was sitting on the floor, restrained by iron chains.

“This is a captured bandit at the sixth level of Standing Style. Begin practicing the Absorption Great Technique.”

The special martial art requires a target for practice. The Devil Sect brought in a captured criminal to allow me to practice. This was probably arranged through Chun Yu-un’s influence.

I grabbed the prisoner’s shoulder. The prisoner…


With eyes filled with fear, they glare at me.

“Get your hands off me!”

The prisoner struggles. I raise my fist and smash it down on the prisoner’s head. Their teeth break. Grabbing their shoulder again, I activate the Sucking Palm Technique.

I begin to draw in the prisoner’s energy—it’s crude and impure.

‘There was a similar technique to this Heavenly Demon Art in the Celestial Demon Skill.’

The Celestial Demon Skill (Heavenly Devil Art) – Dark Void Hole: A skill that steals the energy of those weaker than oneself. Very similar to the Sucking Palm Technique, but unlike it, doesn’t store the stolen energy within the body. Instead, it uses the stolen energy immediately for other techniques. The Dark Void Hole had none of the side effects of the Sucking Palm Technique.

While lost in thought, I notice the prisoner’s body beginning to wither. The Sucking Palm Technique is stealing their very life force.

“N-no… please stop…”

The prisoner pleads.

But I am not one to stop. Whether they live or die, I continue the Sucking Palm Technique until its limit.

“Hmm, impressive.”

The instructor says this, then carries the corpse out.

Alone now, I sit cross-legged on the floor.

My stomach feels heavy, as if I’ve eaten greasy, indigestible food.

The Thunder Heaven Flow and Celestial Demon Skill stir restlessly, demanding I quickly dispose of the impure energy I’ve absorbed.

‘Currently, my power is sealed by the restriction… using either the Thunder Heaven Flow or Celestial Demon Skill would undo the seal.’

I start to control the absorbed energy with the Enter Demon Qi Technique, a basic qi cultivation method I learned here.

‘Dammit, I don’t feel any stronger at all.’

A few days later, I pass the test and remain in Squad 1.

Over 300 people failed the test. Half were demoted, and the remaining half expelled from the Demon Entry Sect.

•••

Four months into life at the Demon Entry Sect.

I’m restless. Though I sneak back to Mount Rakwol during sleep hours to enjoy some freedom, even that is starting to feel insufficient. I need something new.

‘Damn it, I can’t hold back anymore.’

I bolt upright in bed. Even with my eyes closed, sleep eludes me completely.

There’s only one thing on my mind right now:

Lian Yehua.

The Beauty of the Demon Sect.

I want to claim Lian Yehua right now.

‘If I lift the restriction and attack… no, I don’t necessarily have to lift the restriction to do it.’

I decide to use what I have.

First, I activate the Illusion Cloak, turning myself invisible. I slip outside unnoticed. The instructors guarding around the dorms don’t detect my presence thanks to my skillful concealment using the Flowing Heavens Technique.

Successfully infiltrating the women’s dormitory, I quietly make my way inside. Finding Lian Yehua’s room is easy; like the men’s dorm, each door has a number.

‘Lian Yehua is room 567. I just need to find 567.’

There it is.

Room 567 is deep inside on the third floor.

Excited, I reach for the doorknob but pause. It’s definitely locked. Breaking in forcefully would guarantee being caught—Lian Yehua is already at the level where she senses the Five Energies.

I think for a moment. Is there a way to pick the lock without her noticing?

Enter through the window? It’s on the third floor, possibly more trouble than going through the front door. Plus, there’s no guarantee the window is open—it’s probably locked too.

I check the time on my smartphone.

Midnight is almost here. There’s about six hours before wake-up time.

‘Six hours… plenty of time to spare.’

Licking my lips, I deactivate the Illusion Cloak, returning to visibility. As a precaution for the worst-case scenario, I put on a mask.

‘To get past Lian Yehua without her noticing… I just need her to not sense me picking the lock.’

I grin.

A good idea comes to mind.

I take out the Sleep Powder. An old sedative I got from the Five Pavilion Tavern, potent enough to almost knock me out when I was at the Five Energies level.

‘Let’s enhance the Sleep Powder with the Bright Ascension Path first. If I go to another world to do it, I won’t have to worry about running out of time.’

Reality


In the body, the sleep-inducing potion was enhanced.

The sleep-inducing potion was a liquid sedative. It’s mixed with water or food for use. The problem was that there was no way to feed it to Yeoha due to the locked door preventing entry.

“Hmm, let’s vaporize the potion. There’s a chance the effect might dissipate, but there’s also a chance it’ll work. And if this fails, we can just get help from Mi-ling.”

The enhanced sleep-inducing potion, fortified by the Brilliant Ascension Technique, was placed into a small humidifier. The humidifier’s nozzle was pushed into the gap under the door and activated. The vaporized potion began to fill Yeoha’s room.

Smirking as things went according to plan, I waited.

“There’s no sign of movement inside. If she noticed something strange, she would have opened the window or left the room. This is a success.”

Still, just in case, I kept pumping the potion into the room for 30 minutes. The sleep-inducing potion knocks a person out for two periods of time.

“In human terms, that’s about four hours. With the enhancement from the Brilliant Ascension Technique, the effects could last even longer. Four hours is more than enough time to make rice cakes…and then some.”

Though I really will be making rice cakes later.

I pulled out my Flowery Lotus Blade and shoved it through the door crack, cutting the lock securing the door. Clang! Thud! The lock fell to the floor, and the previously locked door swung open. Before the misty smoke escaped the room, I slipped inside and closed the door behind me.

On the bed lay Yeoha, asleep. Even in slumber, she resembled Snow White.

“Prince Charming waking Snow White! That’s me! Hehehe!”

I removed my lower garments and climbed onto her bed. A sword leaned against the side of the bed, but I paid it no mind as I pulled back the covers.

Even while sleeping, she wore her training robes.

“Yeoha being Yeoha…this must be appropriate for her…but it looks so uncomfortable. Let me make you more comfortable, hehehe.”

I stripped her completely, leaving her naked. Like Nangong Lin, she had bound her chest tightly with bandages.

“I understand. Big breasts can get in the way when wielding a sword. Still…with this size…she must be at least a G-cup. Bigger than Nangong Lin’s.”

Gulp. Swallowing hard, I touched her breasts. Her areola and nipples were a pristine pink. The nipple seemed to blend into the areola like an indentation, but after a moment, it began to stiffen.

Once fully erect, her nipple was nearly the length of a finger joint, and its width wasn’t insignificant either. It looked to be about 3 centimeters in diameter.

“This…this kind of nipple…I can’t hold back!”

I latched onto her breast. Sucking her large nipple into my mouth like a baby, I made soft slurping sounds. Of course, no milk came out, but the act alone satisfied me.

“Mmm…”

Yeoha, under the influence of the sleep-inducing potion, groaned softly and furrowed her brow. Startled, I pulled away from her breast. Her erect, pink nipple glistened with my saliva.

She twisted her body, stretching her arms wide and grabbing the pillow. As a result, her large, well-shaped breasts were prominently displayed. Her slender waist without an ounce of fat accentuated her mammary assets even further.

“Phew. For a moment, I thought she woke up.”

Nope. Her breathing remained steady, and there was no other movement. Just a habitual sleep twitch. Relieved, I fondled her breasts again.

“…I’ll take my time with these later…let’s check her pussy now.”

Moving downward, I spread her long, white legs apart.

“Wow…”

Without realizing it, I let out a gasp of amazement.

I already knew she was hairy from when I undressed her earlier. But seeing it directly, the amount was extraordinary.

“With this much pubic hair obscuring her pussy…and who would’ve thought there’d be hair around her anus too?”

The First Beauty of the Demon Sect had a bushy ass!

This was a secret known only to two people in this world. Perhaps even Yeoha herself didn’t know. After all, most people don’t usually inspect their own anus.

I didn’t forget to take out the camera. Yeoha’s first experience would be documented.

As I stared at her thick forest of hair, I retrieved scissors and a razor from my inventory.

“Yeoha…a bare pussy will suit you perfectly.”

Snip snip.

I began the task of turning her jungle into a barren mountain.
