Chapter 0009: The Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique

The first path involves practicing the Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique. If successful, it will naturally bring great joy to all, and Yan Zhen's own magical power can also advance to the sixth level of the Qi Refinement stage

completely different from the stable and secure path of the Zhengdao Xuanguan

A failed gamble results in a significant loss of vitality, making it impossible to enhance one's strength within two years

For the next three days, I continuously went to the tavern to indulge in drinking. On the first day, I ordered a couple of good side dishes to accompany the drinks and enjoyed the strong liquor. The liquor was extremely potent, and I kept drinking, clearly displaying an intention to get drunk. The problem was that my tolerance for alcohol was quite good, so I drank for a long time. After consuming a total of twenty jars of liquor, I finally fell into a deep drunken stupor.

Indeed, this step may sound absurd, but in reality, it is a fact

Yan Zhen has finally made a decision

The joy of defeating Ouyang Song's loyal servant, Qin An, in Shuangyue Valley and obtaining the food scroll can be set aside

Under normal circumstances, the demon lord pays no attention to the cultivators

In a previous life, I inadvertently acquired a secret technique known as the Nine Needles Nine Demons Secret Art

However, once a failure occurs, it results in a significant depletion of vitality and essence, making it impossible to enhance one's magical power for two years. Only after the two-year period, when vitality is restored, can one continue to improve their magical power

Let me explain this: entities like demons particularly enjoy preying on the elderly, children, and those with weaker physical conditions

This cottage is situated far from other cottages, nestled among the mountains and forests, exuding a certain ethereal quality

Yan Zhen is indeed a person of extreme decisiveness; once she has made up her mind to gamble, she immediately begins to prepare.

On the third day, I continued to drink, and also prepared a few small dishes. The wine I drank today was "San Wan Bu Guo Gang". This wine is famously known as the most renowned drink in the casual talk tavern, and even those with poor alcohol tolerance usually do not dare to drink it. However, I drank it with great pleasure, and after consuming twenty-one bowls of "San Wan Bu Guo Gang", I became deeply intoxicated. This truly lives up to the reputation of "San Wan Bu Guo Gang".

In order to invite the spirit into the body, one must attain a state of weakness. Thus, being consecutively intoxicated for three days undoubtedly constitutes a considerable state of weakness

Thus, this requirement has arisen

He is doomed; the life-and-death duel in a few days will be his time of death

When the gamble is successful, everyone is naturally pleased, enhancing their magical power

The Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique is a method for unlocking potential

Once successful, it can stimulate the deep potential within the human body, enabling Yan Zhen to advance to the sixth level of the Qi Refinement stage

An outer disciple said

Having traversed one-third of the path from the fifth level of Qi Refinement to the sixth level of Qi Refinement, only the remaining second and third steps are left to complete.

He has given up on himself; drinking like this every day, how could he possibly survive

The magical arts are inherently peculiar and cunning, deviating from conventional paths and starting from unconventional shortcuts

The Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique consists of three steps

The Nine Needles Nine Demons Secret Technique is a form of secret art that even those within the demonic path are often hesitant to attempt

Ouyang Song is at the seventh level of the Qi Refinement stage, and naturally holds a prominent position among the outer disciples

Hey, an incompetent drunkard. No wonder Junior Sister Yan Xiaozhi would leave this person; if it were me, I would also leave this person

This technique has a success rate of only about 30%, while the failure rate is as high as approximately 70%

After finishing drinks at the tavern, Yan Zhen returned to the Qing residence where she lived

Amidst such discussions, I have also completed the first step of the Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique

Cultivators with abundant vital energy are generally not the preferred targets for demons to attack. It is only when cultivators are attempting to break through to higher realms that countless demons come rushing in, with both inner demons and celestial demons descending simultaneously

However, the enhancement of magical power is exceedingly difficult; it is quite normal for a minor realm to require a year and a half to achieve.

Yan Zhen quietly assessed the strengths of both sides and concluded that she was not yet a match for Ouyang Song. To defeat Ouyang Song, it would be best for her to elevate her own magical power to the sixth level of the Qi Refining stage.

... ...

Rebirth is not omnipotent

How to enhance one's magical power within a mere six days

On the second day, we continued as we did on the first day, drinking again and preparing four or five side dishes to accompany the drinks, such as stir-fried pig tongue and cold mixed pig ears. This day, we had "Daughter's Red," a robust vintage of Daughter's Red wine, which was rich and fragrant, but also had a considerable aftereffect.

However, Yan Zhen's own internal strength is merely as strong as the fifth level of the Qi Refining stage

Often, there is significant progress in the early stages, but in the later stages, due to an unstable foundation, the advancement in strength is not substantial

Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!

And now, having been reborn, there is no need to use the Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique for what should be normal reasoning. However, the decisive battle with Ouyang Song is just around the corner, with only six days left. There is simply not enough time to enhance my magical power through normal means.

Ouyang Song heard the confidential reports from these individuals and snorted disdainfully; he clearly believed that victory was assured for him, and he now had an even greater advantage.

Not having been reborn and possessing extensive information, one can leisurely navigate through any problem encountered

On this day, it seems that my alcohol tolerance has increased somewhat; today I consumed a total of twenty-three jars of wine before becoming deeply intoxicated

Yan Zhen fell into deep contemplation, pondering for a long time, and eventually recalled some matters.

The outer disciples of the Qingfeng Immortal Sect range from the weakest at the third level of Qi Refinement to the strongest at the ninth level of Qi Refinement

On the second path, if one does not practice the Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique, then naturally, one will not fail

This is a youth hostel located near a cliff, consisting of two wooden cabins, one for living and the other for cooking and making fire

Of course, there are also some who quietly report secrets to Ouyang Song, who still holds a certain status among the outer disciples

This secret technique is extraordinarily bizarre and perilous, inviting celestial demons to invade oneself, using one's own Dao heart to resist the celestial demons, thereby stimulating the potential within one's own body

The formidable enemy Ouyang Song, whose current magical power is at the seventh level of the Qi Refinement stage

As for winning or losing in gambling, let it be decided by the heavens

The first step is to get thoroughly drunk for three days

The risks associated with this road are extremely high, and it can be said that risks and opportunities coexist.

Hehe, Yan Zhenzhen is becoming more and more depraved. She originally just came to eat and drink a little, but now she gets completely drunk every day and doesn't practice at all.

There are only seven days left until the life-and-death showdown with the formidable enemy Ouyang Song

This martial art is likely something that even those from the demonic path would not dare to attempt lightly

Yan Zhen sat in a chair in the Qing residence, lost in thought

The previous enhancement was the divine treasure known as the Food Scroll, but the Food Scroll cannot be used in a short period of time

Another outer sect disciple remarked with emotion

He probably knows that he is finished, and that he will certainly die at the hands of Ouyang Song in the life-and-death duel a few days from now, so he might as well vent his frustrations before he dies

Sometimes, when faced with extremely difficult circumstances, one is compelled to make a challenging decision

Practice the Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique, or not practice it at all

Yan Zhen's performance, of course, caught the attention of others in the tavern.

I bet! Cultivating the Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique

If one fails, their vitality will be greatly diminished, and they will be unable to enhance their magical power for two years

Only by taking this gamble can one possibly win against Ouyang Song

The Nine Needles and Nine Demons Secret Technique, truly deserving of its reputation as a demonic art, is one that invites demons into the body, in contrast to others who seek to avoid them

Now, two paths lie before me

A somewhat attractive female disciple with a ponytail scoffed disdainfully.

Someone as useless as Yan Zhen might as well die

Just seven days later, the battle with Ouyang Song became difficult, and it was impossible to defeat Ouyang Song no matter what.

In a previous life, Yan Zhen acquired the Nine Needles Nine Demons secret technique. Out of curiosity, she studied it for a while, but ultimately lacked the courage to attempt it, leaving it set aside.

At the same time, there are various unconventional methods

Yan Zhen fell into deep contemplation

Thus, these Nine Needles and Nine Demonic Secret Techniques are essentially a gamble
