Sage of Humanity-Chapter 468 466: Life Origin Method

"Besides, there are many secret techniques and cultivation techniques that have been passed down in this way. The Nine Provinces cultivation world today is flourishing because it has integrated the essence of many perished worlds, slowly forming by discarding the dross and selecting the essence," she explained.

As a Level 9 cultivator from Cloud River, Xia Qianqian undoubtedly had a deeper understanding of the Nine Provinces cultivation world than Lu Ye, since she had been cultivating for a longer time and had more experience and knowledge.

It was the first time Lu Ye had heard such an explanation, and he listened intently.

"Such things that can change the paradigm of a school are very important to the Nine Provinces cultivation world. If we sell it to Heaven's Augury treasure vault, we can gain the attention of Heaven's Augury and enhance our fortune. This has happened before. Someone once brought out a small sect's cultivation technique from a secret realm, sold it to Heaven's Augury treasure vault, consequently adding a new cultivation school to the Nine Provinces cultivation world. Since then, his fortune soared, and although he didn't get everything he wished for, everything he did was successful. So Ye Liu, let's sell it, and of the merit we earn, you keep seventy percent, and we three each take ten percent!"

As she said, selling this item to Heaven's Augury treasure vault would deliver visible merits, but the invisible benefits were the most important. Nevertheless, being able to obtain this item was mainly due to Lu Ye, so it made sense for him to have seventy percent of the merits.

Shen Xiaomao and Lan Ziyi also stopped their cultivation and all eagerly watched Lu Ye, for most cultivators never achieve something that draws the attention of Heaven's Augury in their lifetimes. Now that the opportunity was before them, naturally, they did not want to miss it.

Lu Ye pondered for a moment and then nodded, "Okay, we'll talk about it when we get out."

Xia Qianqian patted Lu Ye's shoulder, "From now on, you are my close friend. If you ever encounter any trouble on the Cloud River battlefield that you can't resolve, just message me, and I'll help you!"

This woman's friendship clearly wasn't cheap...

The three women continued their cultivation to recover, while Lu Ye began to study the secret technique that linked his and Amber's Life Origins, a prerequisite for the Beast Seal Method, recorded in the jade slip. The practice wasn't overly complicated, but the demands on both the cultivator and the demon beast were high.

The cultivator and demon beast must reach a level of unconditional trust in each other, even to the extent of being willing to sacrifice their lives for one another!

Would Amber be willing to sacrifice its life for Lu Ye? Naturally. Having been companions from very humble beginnings, they had been through life and death together so many times, both Amber and Lu Ye had long since considered each other a part of their own lives.

Not to mention, there was also the bond of Yiyi between them.

For both Amber and Lu Ye, Yiyi was an important family member.

For other cultivators and demon beasts, reaching this condition required a lot of time and cultivation, but Lu Ye and Amber did not need this, as they already met these conditions long ago.

The technique to link their Life Origins wasn't complicated; to Lu Ye, it simply represented a unique kind of spirit runes, a type he had never seen before.

There are countless spirit runes in the world; Lu Ye, although he had acquired many from the Talent Tree and learned even more, was always encountering some that were unknown to him.

The runes were not complex to construct and weren't difficult to form; however, they couldn't be created with spirit force, but rather with their own blood.

Originally in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, not many could perform this secret technique spirit runes since spirit runes masters were rare in the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain, and usually, someone from the Elders had to intervene to enact the Life Binding Technique.

Being a spirit runes master himself, Lu Ye naturally did not need to rely on others.

He took a vessel from his storage space and placed it on the ground, then drew the Boulder Mountain Saber, activating the Sharpness spirit runes for reinforcement. Holding the blade in one hand and grasping the sharp edge in his palm, he made a cut across the palm.

As he clenched his fist, blood flowed from his palm, dropping into the vessel.

The scent of blood filled the air, and the three women cultivating nearby opened their eyes to look but, not knowing what Lu Ye was busy with, didn't interfere.

After filling half the vessel with his blood, Lu Ye then waved the Boulder Mountain Saber to Amber as a signal.

Amber stepped back, shaking its head like a rattle drum.

Despite its formidable appearance when showing its true form and its fearless demeanor in battle, the creature was actually quite afraid of pain...

This was a weakness only Lu Ye and Yiyi knew about.

Lu Ye ignored its reluctance, grabbing it and gesturing towards its forearm before making a cut.

Amber immediately yelped, its pupils shrinking to the size of pinpoints.

Tick-tock, the sound of Amber's blood dripping into the vessel could be heard.

A moment later, Lu Ye let go of Amber, and it promptly lay down, licking its wound with its tongue and occasionally shooting Lu Ye a look of woeful accusation, a clear expression of being hurt by him.

Picking up the vessel, Lu Ye gently swayed it, mixing their blood together.

Lu Ye then went outside to find the Great Elder resting in the courtyard and asked him for some medicinal solution.

The Great Elder, understanding immediately, asked, "Young Master, are you about to perform the Life Binding Technique?"

The materials Lu Ye asked for were not particularly precious in the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain, but their uses were limited—aside from concocting elixir pills, they were used for the Life Binding Technique.

Lu Ye nodded.

The Great Elder immediately asked, "Do you need my help?"

"I can do it myself."

The Great Elder said, "I know the Young Master wishes to recover his strength quickly and that the demon beast is proficient in human nature, but the Life Binding Technique has high requirements for both humans and demon beasts. Young Master, let it come naturally, and do not force it too much."

From his perspective, Lu Ye's natal demon beast had only recently perished in battle. Although he had now subdued a demon beast skilled in human nature, it was still unknown whether they could form a Life Binding Technique. It was quite likely impossible, as the Young Master had spent too little time with the demon beast. How could they so quickly reach a level where both were willing to give their lives for each other?

Moreover, he had never heard of the Young Master learning the Life Binding Technique before.

But at this moment, he could not be too harsh on Lu Ye, so he could only advise him in this tactful manner.

"I understand," Lu Ye responded and turned to walk back inside the house.

He stirred the several types of medicinal solutions he had obtained from the Great Elder, and the originally bright red blood became even more blood-red.

Everything was ready, and Lu Ye then stimulated his spirit force, using it as a guide and the mixture of blood and medicinal syrup as a base, to construct the Life Origin Spirit Rune in midair.

These spirit runes comprised only a few hundred Yin-Yang Dual Origins. With Lu Ye's current mastery in the Path of Spirit Runes, constructing it was not complex. After all, he could now easily construct the Void Spirit Runes, which were made of over three thousand Yin-Yang Dual Origins. Compared to that, a mere few hundred were trivial.

Even though it was his first attempt, Lu Ye made no mistakes whatsoever.

Moments later, the Life Origin Spirit Rune was successfully formed, and the materials within the vessel had been completely consumed.

At a glance, the rune resembled the pattern of Tai Chi, forming a symmetrical circle.

Lu Ye gave Amber a look, and Amber leaped onto the spirit rune, while Lu Ye sat down opposite it.

Spirit force surged, activating the might of the spirit rune.

Instantly, the room was filled with brilliant red light, attracting the attention of the three women who were recovering. They opened their eyes to see and marveled at the sight.

The noises in the room also alerted the Great Elder and the others outside. They turned their heads to look over but could not see the inside of the room. Feeling it inappropriate to disturb by entering, they could only wait anxiously.

Inside the room, the power of the Life Origin Spirit Rune was activated. Strands of red light, like ropes, wound around Lu Ye and Amber. At the same time, Lu Ye grunted, and Amber growled; both felt their blood boiling. As the red light twined around them, a red mist emanated from their bodies, indicating their surging blood Qi.

Amber, originally the size of a cat, uncontrollably revealed its true form. Had Lu Ye not prepared and made the Life Origin Spirit Rune large enough, it really might not have contained it.

The blood Qi from both of them grew richer until the entire room was filled with a pungent smell of blood.

Their blood Qi, as if drawn by some unknown force, began converging and mixing in the center.

The red light surrounding Lu Ye and Amber rapidly twisted and spun. As it flowed, Lu Ye felt his blood Qi continuously draining away yet simultaneously being replenished. It was a strange sensation, as if some force was drawing his blood out only to inject it back into his body.

During this process, he distinctly felt his blood Qi undergoing changes, becoming more vital, richer, and a mysterious bestial nature surged within him.

That was Amber's beastial essence!

The dazzling red light continued for quite a while before it gradually dimmed.

As the red light faded, the previously constructed Life Origin Spirit Rune also blurred and eventually disappeared, along with the pungent smell of blood that had filled the room.

Sitting opposite Amber, they stared into each other's eyes.

At this moment, both human and tiger experienced a profoundly strange feeling, as if their lives had become connected!

Their sense of closeness to each other deepened.

Due to the pet contract, Lu Ye could previously guess a bit of Amber's thoughts, but compared to Yi, it was still quite different — Yi could clearly know what Amber was thinking.

Now, with the Life Origin Technique, Lu Ye couldn't reach Yi's level, but it was much better than before.

Amber seemed to feel the same and moved closer to rub its big head against Lu Ye.

But the changes didn't stop there. Suddenly feeling something, Lu Ye grabbed and pulled open his own shirt at the chest, looking down at his own chest.

On his chest, a lifelike tiger head had somehow appeared. It looked as if it were etched onto Lu Ye's chest with fresh blood, fierce and formidable.

Beast Seal!

Normally, the Life Origin Technique and the Beast Seal Method were separate; to form a Beast Seal, one must first complete the Life Origin Technique, which can be considered a prerequisite of the Beast Seal Method. However, while Lu Ye and Amber were forming the Life Origin Technique, the Beast Seal Method was somewhat inadvertently completed as well.

This certainly saved some trouble.

The Great Elder's voice suddenly sounded from outside, "Young Master, are you alright?"

The old fellow clearly couldn't wait any longer and was urgently eager to know Lu Ye's current condition.
