The heritage of the Dark Desolate Heaven technique was as such greatly destroyed. However, the Dark Desolate Heaven Masters did not completely disappear as a result of this, they just went underground.
The “Black Handed Demon” used by Shen Tu Hai was not an exclusive technique used only by Dark Desolate Heaven Masters. Some orthodox Desolate Heaven Masters would also use it, though seldomly.
This method was ancient and complex, so many Desolate Heaven Masters did not even understand it.
It was indeed remarkable that Shen Tu Hai could use this method at his age.
The people from the Lin family, regardless of the younger or older generation, had to admit that Shen Tu Hai was a genius in the Desolate Heaven technique.
Clearly, it was an extremely difficult matter for Shen Tu Hai and company to cooperate with Shen Tu Nantian to refine the ancient recipe.
Realizing this, many of them began to worry for Yi Yun. Although they did not know Yi Yun, Yi Yun was, after all, representing their Lin family and was the only person who could compete with the Shen Tu family clan amongst the younger generation. If Yi Yun was to lose terribly, then they would also be embarrassed.
“Junior brother Yun should still have some hidden methods, right?”
“That should be the case. If he could crack Song Ziyue’s array so easily, I doubt he only has the Mystic Crystal Hand. Let us wait and see…”
As they spoke, their hearts suddenly sank. They saw a black gas start to emit from the desolate bone in Shen Tu Hai’s hands. This black gas was like a venomous snake that shot towards Shen Tu Hai’s eyebrows!
“Oh? That is!?”
People widened their eyes. The black gas revealed a very dangerous aura and was clearly detrimental for Shen Tu Hai!
And at this moment, the bat-like Aspect Totem behind Shen Tu Hai roared and swallowed the black gas!
Shen Tu Hai was currently stressed. After his Aspect Totem swallowed the black gas, he began sending out runic seals onto the desolate bone. Only then did he manage to quell the black gas completely.
Only when the black gas was completely sealed did Shen Tu Hai exhale, revealing a complacent smile.
“Spiritual backlash!” An old Desolate Heaven Master identified the origin of the black gas.
In the domain of the Desolate Heaven technique, some desolate bones were extremely dangerous. If one did not have the ability to refine them, it would result in serious consequences.
People could die due to the Desolate Heaven technique!
“No wonder Shen Tu Hai had to use the Black Handed Demon. This Black Handed Demon has the advantage in dealing with spiritual backlashes.”
An old Desolate Heaven Master from the Lin family said. The reason why the Black Handed Demon was widely used by Dark Desolate Heaven Masters was because the human bones they refined contained resentment, resulting in more frequent spiritual backlashes!
Now, Shen Tu Hai’s king-ranked desolate beast’s bone made a spiritual backlash, likely due to the Heaven Desolate Ancient Sect’s heritage. Some of the processing methods had caused the bone to become like this.
If one suffered a spiritual backlash while refining such a desolate bone, the consequences ranged from damaging one’s soul to becoming a retard!
“This Shen Tu Nantian actually chose such an ancient recipe. Since the “Zi” labeled desolate bone has spiritual backlash within it, then the other labeled desolate bones might also have it too, and they might even be more dangerous. These twelve desolate bones are definitely not simple.”
People looked at the 12 bones in Shen Tu Hai, Shen Tu Feng and Yi Yun’s hands as they eyelids twitched. Especially the younger generation felt fear. They felt lucky that they were not in Yi Yun’s position, facing such a situation.
If it were them, they would really be in a situation of being irrevocably committed. If they shied away from it, it would be too embarrassing. If they gritted their teeth and went through with it, who knows if they would end up a retard as a result.
Many of them began to sympathize with Yi Yun. Although his Desolate Heaven technique was extraordinary, he was too young. He was not like Shen Tu Hai or Shen Tu Feng. The both of them must have been exposed to the Desolate Heaven technique heritage of the Heaven Desolate Ancient Sect prior to this.
At this moment, Shen Tu Hai completed the extraction of the Power of Desolates from the “Zi” labeled desolate bone.
This blob of Power of Desolates finally landed into the disk array at Shen Tu Hai’s feet. As a result, the runes on the disk array lit up.
There were a total of 12 runes on the disk array, corresponding to the 12 desolate bones.
Seeing the corresponding rune light up, Shen Tu Hai clenched his fists and was delighted!
He had succeeded!
