Chapter 021: The Blood Fiend Manual

Wang Bo squinted, looking at the fierce ghost possessing the young girl. With a slight flick of his finger, he yanked the ghost out from behind her.

The creature was pierced all over by golden threads of light, howling in agony, writhing in pain, utterly unable to escape.

Ignoring its screams, Wang Bo sent another beam of light through its arm.

"I advise you to get out now, or I'll kill him piece by piece."

Though Wang Bo was reluctant to kill, he would show no mercy to a fierce ghost.

Meanwhile, the demon waiting outside entered with the gloomy-faced man.

The fierce ghost possessing the girl saw the gloomy-faced man and trembled with rage. "Well, Third Brother, after all these years of life and death together, I never thought you would betray us."

The gloomy-faced man fell to his knees with a thud. "Big Brother, Second Brother, I've wronged you. I deserve to die. I'm sorry, but I was truly terrified. I couldn't take it anymore. Big Brother, you don't know—their methods are too cruel. I couldn't bear it, I couldn't bear it."

The fierce ghost possessing the girl grew even more shocked. At first, he thought Third Brother had betrayed them for profit, but it turned out he had been tortured into confessing.

That was precisely why he found it so unbelievable.

The three brothers had shared life and death for so many years. How could he not know what kind of man Third Brother was?

When alive, he was a formidable man; after death, as a fierce ghost, he was a ruthless character—merciless to others and to himself.

Yet even such a formidable man could not withstand the enemy's brutal torture and gave up the brothers he had fought alongside for years.

This made him involuntarily shudder, vowing that even in death, he would never fall into the enemy's hands.

Otherwise, who knew what torment awaited him.

Wang Bo snorted coldly and snapped his fingers again. Golden beams pierced Second Brother's limbs, causing him to scream hysterically in agony.

He had no mood to watch the emotional drama of a few fierce ghosts.

"I order you now: get out of the girl's body immediately, or I will tear his soul apart bit by bit, leaving you both annihilated, never to be reborn."

The eldest glared at Wang Bo with a ferocious expression, but seeing the countless golden threads of light, he felt a hint of fear.

"Who the hell are you? Why are you opposing us brothers?"

"I'll count to three. If you don't come out by then, I'll make him vanish into nothing." Wang Bo couldn't be bothered to waste words with these creatures and began counting.

"One!"

"Stop!!!" the eldest roared furiously. "If you dare kill Second Brother, I swear this woman won't live. Not only will she not live, she won't even have the chance to become a ghost."

Wang Bo said coldly, "I will kill you and avenge her. I will make you taste every pain in the world, including the torments of the eighteen levels of hell."

The demons under his command were perfect for such work.

Torturing a soul was something these demons excelled at.

The gloomy-faced man shuddered and quickly said, "Big Brother, stop! Their methods are too cruel. If you fall into their hands, it will be worse than annihilation."

The eldest snorted coldly. "Do you think if I come out now, he'll let me go? Either way, it's death. I might as well drag someone down with me."

Wang Bo couldn't help but chuckle. "Naive."

The next second, a demon appeared behind the boss, emerging from the darkness, its hand piercing through the girl's body.

The boss stared in shock at the arm protruding from his own chest.

"What..."

Before he could even express his surprise, the arm withdrew, and at the same time, the boss felt his body being forcibly yanked out of the girl's body.

Then, a torrent of light descended from the sky, piercing through his body, riddling him like a beehive.

The demon released Wang Bo and said respectfully, "Master."

"Well done." Wang Bo gave an approving look. This demon was one he had just released. While the Three Evils boss's attention was drawn to Wang Bo, the demon had merged into the darkness, circled behind him, and delivered a fatal blow.

As for the girl's body, it had not actually been pierced.

This demon's talent could directly affect the soul, not the body.

Thus, he was able to forcibly extract the Three Evils boss's soul directly from the girl's body.

"Thank you for your praise, Master." The demon smiled, seemingly very pleased.

Wang Bo looked at the miserable state of the Three Evils and said, "These three fierce ghosts are yours to deal with as you wish."

The two demons' eyes lit up. For demons, high-quality souls were not only delicious but also enhanced their magical power. The three fierce ghosts had cultivated Daoist arts, so their souls were naturally very tasty. For demons, they were undoubtedly nourishment.

The two demons bowed simultaneously. "Thank you for your reward, Master."

The gloomy man looked at Wang Bo in despair. "No, no..."

But before he could finish, the two demons pounced on him, tore him apart, and feasted. Soon, not even a trace of him remained.

The remaining two fierce ghosts, witnessing this, were terrified out of their wits.

But in the end, they too did not escape their fate and were devoured by the two demons.

Afterward, Wang Bo sent the imprisoned girls back to Yuzhou City, cleaned up the battlefield, and found a tattered book in the cave.

Wang Bo flipped through it and discovered it was a cultivation manual.

And it was a thoroughly demonic manual.

The Blood Fiend Scripture!

This was a manual that required blood energy to cultivate, divided into a Yin chapter and a Yang chapter. The Yang chapter, which was relatively complete, described the method for the living to cultivate and was not complicated.

Wang Bo roughly scanned it. The Yang chapter described collecting the masculine blood of men to continuously temper one's body, strengthening one's blood energy to prolong life.

As for the Yin chapter, it was a method for ghosts to cultivate. However, compared to the relatively complete Yang chapter, the Yin chapter was quite incomplete. It described extracting the feminine blood of women, especially virgins, whose blood was more effective.

Using this blood, one could stabilize the soul and strengthen ghosts.

But the Yin chapter had too many missing parts, making much of it guesswork, which led to many difficulties in cultivation. The Three Evils had made little progress and their cultivation had not advanced rapidly.

Wang Bo had no interest in such demonic cultivation methods and did not intend to practice them. He even planned to destroy the contents to prevent others from falling into the demonic path.

However, there were a few spells in the Blood Fiend Scripture that relied on blood to cast, which caught Wang Bo's interest.
