Longevity Hacker: When Every Curse Becomes a Blessing-Chapter 6 – Demon Ape Grand Technique, Paper Binding Codex

"If I want to break through the blockade, I need to find a suitable identity to blend in and escape. First, I need to use a disguise technique to completely change my appearance, including my aura, looks, and mana fluctuations."
Ye Bufan planned in his mind and, once decided, instructed Lv Luo to go to the Scripture Repository to find techniques related to this and use her contribution points to exchange for a Foundation Establishment demonic path cultivation method.
He especially emphasized that the demonic technique should be fast to cultivate and have powerful mana.
Lv Luo's face was pale, extremely unwilling, but she had no choice but to go to the Scripture Repository dejectedly.
"Taking her as a slave has its uses. Before leaving, I should grab as many techniques as I can."
Ye Bufan wasn't worried about Lv Luo betraying him; with her soul blood in his hands, even a Grand Golden Core Cultivator would find it hard to save her life.
Then.
Ye Bufan began cultivating the "Demon Dragon Technique" and the "Blood Escape Technique."
For the former, which required a demon dragon's soul, he directly took Lv Luo's demon snake soul.
The snake-headed technique Lv Luo had previously used was the "Demon Dragon Technique."
This technique was of a high level and difficult to cultivate.
Generally, for someone at the Foundation Establishment stage to master it, they would need to contribute their essence blood for years, even decades.
Lv Luo had contributed for two or three years, each time damaging her cultivation, daring to contribute only once every few days.
Its power was still far from mastery.
"But I don't have this concern. While others grow weaker with each contribution, I grow stronger."
Ye Bufan dripped a drop of essence blood to feed the small purple snake in front of him.
The snake's soul, with its green eyes, greedily devoured the essence blood.
Perhaps due to the Heavenly Dao Foundation, the snake's aura increased significantly.
Far more powerful than when Lv Luo used it.
And Ye Bufan not only didn't feel weakened by the loss of essence blood, but instead felt invigorated, sensing a slight advancement in his cultivation.
"This is insane! I can actually improve my cultivation this way."
Ye Bufan marveled, this system was truly defying the heavens.
The small snake seemed unsatisfied, greedily eyeing the wound on Ye Bufan's thumb.
This was a characteristic of the "Demon Dragon Technique," where the snake soul instinctively craved its master's essence blood.
Most cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Sect, when practicing this technique, would find the loss of a single drop of essence blood excruciating and would feel weak for days.
Some even feared being devoured for their essence blood.
"Poof!"
A drop of essence blood was devoured, Ye Bufan's cultivation advanced once more, and the snake's aura grew stronger, its green eyes even more greedy.
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
Ye Bufan tirelessly contributed his essence blood, solidifying his newly reached Foundation Establishment cultivation and making slight advancements.
As he continued to feed it essence blood, the snake's aura grew stronger, nearing mastery from its initial stage!
And the snake's green eyes, its greed gradually diminished.
Eventually, it even rejected further consumption.
It was stuffed!
"Keep devouring."
Ye Bufan, expressionless, continued to feed it.
The snake's body swelled, staring at its master with fear instead of greed.
If it could speak, it would probably be cursing by now.
It was almost bursting.
"The timing is just right."
Ye Bufan nodded to himself, stopping the feeding to let the snake digest on its own.
Once it was done, the technique would be nearly mastered, far surpassing the prodigies of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
After the "Demon Dragon Technique" came the "Blood Escape Technique," a simpler technique that depended on one's willingness to burn essence blood.
***
By midnight, Ye Bufan had successfully mastered both techniques, enhancing his strength significantly.
Lv Luo also returned.
In a green dress, her figure graceful, she no longer had her usual superior demeanor, instead appearing like a concubine maid, ready to be picked.
"Master, these are the three techniques I exchanged for with all my contribution points.
The powerful Foundation Establishment technique was beyond my contribution points, so I could only get this powerful Body Refinement technique, the 'Demon Ape Grand Technique.'
Additionally, there's the 'Paper Binding Codex,' an unconventional puppet technique."
Lv Luo spoke softly, not daring to neglect Ye Bufan's instructions in the slightest.
To have silently built a top-tier foundation under her nose, this level of cunning surpassed many fellow demon cultivators.
"Alright."
Ye Bufan nodded, accepting the two ancient books.
Though a bit disappointed at the lack of advanced disguise and Foundation Establishment techniques, he understood that high-level Foundation Establishment techniques were too valuable.
Outside, they would be considered clan-guarding techniques.
"The 'Demon Ape Grand Technique,' an advanced body refinement method, once mastered, the body becomes like steel, immensely powerful, comparable to Foundation Establishment. Requires ape essence blood and soul for cultivation.
Side effect: May cause mental confusion and pollute one's mana."
Ye Bufan was surprised at first.
In the cultivation world, body refinement cultivators were rare, as body refinement was harder than Qi Refining, let alone reaching Foundation Establishment with it.
However, in close combat, body refinement cultivators were invincible.
And this "Demon Ape Grand Technique" was quite powerful, something Lv Luo's contribution points could never exchange for.
But seeing the side effect, Ye Bufan understood.
"How many in the Heavenly Demon Sect practice this body refinement method?"
"None."
Lv Luo, under Ye Bufan's gaze, felt a bit fearful, lamenting, "Because of the severe side effects, it's cheap, and I couldn't afford anything else."
After practicing the "Demon Ape Grand Technique," one basically says goodbye to being a normal person, as their cultivation gets polluted, halting their progress.
No one in the Heavenly Demon Sect practices it.
But this was to Ye Bufan's advantage.
["Demon Ape Grand Technique," Reverse Negative Effect: After practice, mental clarity increases, and mana is purified.]
Ye Bufan chuckled inwardly.
Besides.
The "Paper Binding Codex" is an unconventional puppet technique, using materials to create combat-capable paper dolls and beasts.
It's considered unconventional because most puppets in the cultivation world are made of steel or rare wood.
Paper dolls are unheard of.
Lv Luo explained that it was rumored to have been developed by an ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect from a funeral shop over a thousand years ago.
Due to various shortcomings, disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect have always chosen the normal puppet path over paper binding.
Ye Bufan found it intriguing but decided to study it later.
"First, practice the 'Demon Ape Grand Technique' to enhance strength and escape the Heavenly Demon Sect."
Ye Bufan gave Lv Luo two hundred spirit stones, instructing her to buy ape essence blood from the sect's market.
The Heavenly Demon Sect's market was open 24/7.
When Lv Luo returned, Ye Bufan took the two bottles of "Green Demon Ape" essence blood into his room.
This was a second-tier beast, equivalent to early Foundation Establishment.
Moments later, a large bathtub steamed, with a rolling murderous aura and a stench, as if a ferocious demon ape lurked within.
"Master, Lv Luo will help you undress~"
Lv Luo blushed, looking at the old man before her, suppressing her discomfort.
This was clearly an attempt to curry favor.
But being so intimate with an old man was not from her heart.

As long as I serve him well, there will be a chance to escape his grasp.
"Alright."
Ye Bufan nodded, not the least bit embarrassed, sitting in the tub under Lv Luo's service.
Instantly.
The murderous aura boiled, smoke rose, and a large amount of medicinal power drilled into Ye Bufan's body.
The "Demon Ape Grand Technique" activated, rapidly strengthening his physique.
Even the Divine Concealment Technique couldn't hide it, gradually revealing Ye Bufan's true appearance.
With a head full of black hair, handsome features, and smooth skin, he looked like a young master from a noble family, no longer appearing old.
