"Morality? This could be a bit troublesome. My mother told me that one must possess morality and that it should never be given away," Yue Jinghua suddenly realized, tossing the Meat Worm back into her embrace with a troubled expression.
"It doesn’t necessarily have to be morality; you could also use your talent. There was once an incredibly talented young man who used his talent as an exchange item. You can choose to use your Dark Practitioner talent for the exchange," Jue Shang continued to earnestly entice.
"I am a good-for-nothing. My body doesn’t contain a trace of Dark Energy. Are you sure you want my talent?" Yue Jinghua blinked.
"Well, if there’s no talent, then perhaps human virtues? I’ve heard that Dark Practitioners in the Xuanzhe Continent are mostly kind, loving, and tolerant of others, or perhaps..." Jue Shang rambled on, listing several examples.
"Those virtues you mentioned? My mom must have forgotten to bring them along when she gave birth to me," Yue Jinghua shrugged her shoulders.
"Then what else do you have? I don’t regard mundane things like treasures and Dark Artifacts," Jue Shang somewhat angrily stated, beginning to wonder if she could even be called a human if she lacked these basic virtues.
Jue Shang had never met such a person before, she began to doubt whether the unattractive young girl before her was as harmless as she appeared.
"Let me think, it seems I truly lack those virtues. I don’t have strengths, but I have plenty of flaws. If only flaws could be used for exchange," Jue Shang listening, felt thoroughly disheartened and really wanted to kick Yue Jinghua into the Senluo Sea.
A person utterly devoid of virtues, more demon-like than actual demons, really ought to be flung as far away as possible.
For the Demon Clan, the trick was to tempt humans to uncover latent sins and stir up demonic nature, only then could they truly control one’s mind.
She had been in the Senluo Sea for many years, but this was the first time she encountered such a person that could make her so infuriated she almost coughed up blood.
"Ah, I’ve got it! I’ll exchange my morality with you," Yue Jinghua suddenly clapped her forehead, radiating joy.
Morality? What is that exactly? Jue Shang was perplexed.
"Morality is way more precious than all those virtues and talents combined. It first appeared in a place called the internet in the 21st century, celebrated as an honor by everyone. Referencing the all-encompassing True God ’Baidu Baike’ for a simple explanation, morality is the criterion for testing one’s character, a touchstone for the soul," Yue Jinghua spoke with utter reverence, her eyes brimming with longing.
"From what you’ve said, lacking morality would be akin to a person lacking a soul, or the Demon Clan lacking a Demon Fetus?" Inferring that Yue Jinghua was willing to trade such a precious thing, it seemed she had overcomplicated her thoughts about this Human Race girl.
"Okay, then hand over your morality to me. In exchange, I will teach you..." Before she could finish speaking, Yue Jinghua interrupted.
"No way, lacking morality, it would be difficult for me to survive in my hometown. A single Killing Technique is definitely not enough. My mother said, always prepare a contingency, only then can one be absolutely safe," Yue Jinghua said confidently.
Morality, as important as a Demon Fetus, indeed seemed very precious.
To achieve her own goals, Jue Shang gritted her teeth, "Fine, I’ll first teach you the introductory mantra of Killing Cultivation, and throw in an extra Killing Technique. Does that work?"
"That sounds not bad, let’s do that," Yue Jinghua nodded satisfactorily.
"I have a ring on my hand, take it off first," Jue Shang sighed in relief, finally managing to deceive this foolish girl, she gestured to Yue Jinghua to step forward.
Yue Jinghua noticed that Jue Shang was wearing an ancient ring on his hand, which was inlaid with a dark black pearl.
She had just removed the ring, and her fingertips had barely touched the ring when the ring holder moved. Before Yue Jinghua could see clearly, a blood-black shadow pierced her fingertip.
Tucked in Yue Jinghua’s arms, the Gold-eating Worm, who was crying over its poor judgment of character, suddenly became alert, and the chrysanthemum-shaped birthmark on its body surface brightened significantly.
Yue Jinghua noticed that the black pearl, which seemed to be on the ring holder, was emitting bursts of dark light, which entered her body.
As the light entered, Yue Jinghua felt something deep inside her soul being rapidly extracted.
A faint black thread of light flew out from within Yue Jinghua’s body; it seemed something was missing from the depths of her soul.
Many years later, when ’morality’ became a well-known term among gods, demons, and humans across several planes, when someone asked about the most unprincipled god in Divine History, how could she, as a god, lack so much morality?
The god replied, "I gave my morality away."
As the black worm continued to feed, Jue Shang recited a sequence of Magic Spells, turning several skull-sized light balls into various shapes, which moved briskly in front of Yue Jinghua’s eyes.
All these light balls were formed by condensing spiritual power.
In her heart, Yue Jinghua developed further suspicions about Jue Shang’s origins, but she kept her composure.
"The various Killing Techniques before your eyes, each has its own strengths; pick one," the light balls occasionally transformed, hinting at the different attributes of each choice.
There were offensive Sword and Axe-type light balls, defensive Shield-type ones, and even small humanoid light balls for meditation, ranging from offense to defense, and even mental methods and mantras, including some secretive Prohibitions.
"I already have the offensive Dark Technique, Cloud Gathering Style. For defense, I have the Small Cloud Trace Steps and Pu’s Concealment. In the worst-case scenario, I can instantly retreat to Mo Xi’s Sea of Consciousness. I can’t afford to waste this precious opportunity to learn a Killing Technique on these; I need to select one that is unusual and useful on the main road,"
Yue Jinghua narrowed her eyes, quickly selecting from among the various Killing Techniques.
Suddenly, a light ball the size of a fist, red as the morning dawn, caught her eye.
Compared to the other Killing Skill light balls, this one was more brightly colored and smaller. It seemed very interested in Yue Jinghua, peeking around her side curiously, and even occasionally rubbed against the back of Yue Jinghua’s hand as if trying to curry favor.
As soon as Yue Jinghua lifted her hand, the fist-sized Killing Skill light ball automatically landed in her palm.
"This is the one," Yue Jinghua grasped the light ball, "What Killing Technique is this?"
Seeing this, Jue Shang was slightly taken aback. She actually chose to learn this kind of Killing Technique?
