Chapter 476 Energy Transference
Chapter 476 Energy Transference
Mira searched through Derek's spatial ring and found a jade slip titled "Yin-Yang Energy Transference Technique". With a quick scan, Mira understood the basic principles of the technique.
This technique was more of an Auxiliary Cultivation Technique because it mainly taught you how to absorb and refine your partner's fluids during sex. For women, these fluids were described as Yin energy, while for men, they were Yang energy.
What Mira found interesting was how men were able to take a woman's 'yin energy' and refine it into something they could use and vice versa. Unfortunately, it didn't go any further than that.
The technique didn't mention anything about boosting one's Dao Comprehension or improving one's affinity, but Mira wasn't expecting something like that in the first place. Perhaps not even the elders of the Main Yin-Yang Sect kept stuff like that on them, much less a kid at a branch Sect.
She also didn't find Derek's primary cultivation technique that served as his foundation, but Mira was satisfied with this.
Just the "Yin-Yang Energy Transference Technique" was enough to give Mira a few ideas on how she could boost her comprehension of the elements.
After skimming through the technique a few more times and rummaging through Derek's spatial ring to ensure she didn't miss anything, she sat on the bed with her legs crossed and stared down at Lisa.
She wasn't doing anything special, but from Lisa's point of view, Mira looked imposing.
"Explain to me more about the Yin-Yang Energy Transference Technique," Mira ordered, but Lisa bit her lip and didn't say anything.
Mira couldn't help but sigh, seeing this, "Listen. I already have the technique in my hands; whether you stay silent or not doesn't matter. I'm just a bit curious, that's all. Who knows? Maybe if I like your answer, I'll think about sparing your life." Mira said while also letting Lisa know that, right now, she was no different than a dead man walking.
She'd have to give satisfactory answers if she wanted to lose her 'dead man walking' status.
Lisa's body shook upon hearing Mira's threat, and although she didn't want to, she decided to answer. Her will to live was much higher than her loyalty to the Sect. Plus, it's not like the Yin-Yang Energy Transference Technique is some big secret. It's given to nearly every disciple at the Yin-Yang Sect!
Mira tilted her head, "Hm? No, I said I'll think about it. Honestly, I'd prefer to kill you to tie up any loose ends. I don't need you blabbering about me to the higher-ups of your Sect, but it also doesn't matter too much if you do. How far is the Yin-Yang Sect willing to go for someone who's only part of the branch sect and only at the Nascent Soul Realm?"
Lisa paled in fright as Mira was exactly right. Killing her would be for the best, but even if she didn't, it wouldn't matter in the grand scheme of things. If Lisa went to the Sect's elders, they'd probably be angered, but it wouldn't be because Derek specifically died.
They'd only be upset because someone killed their Sect's disciple in their own territory. Other than that, they probably wouldn't care.
Not only that, but the other disciples would most likely be happy that Derek died! Male dual cultivators vastly outnumber female dual cultivators in the Sect, and with Lisa's partner dead, she's now free to cultivate with someone else!
Lastly, Derek wasn't well-liked among the men in the Sect because of his personality. Hell, even the elders and Branch Sect Master probably considered him a nuisance!
In conclusion, there was no benefit to Lisa even if she warned the Sect of Derek's death.
At this moment, after she came to this conclusion, Lisa suddenly thought, 'This is more of a brothel than a Sect. The unity is absolutely horrendous—no wonder the Yin-Yang Sect is stuck at the bottom of the Top 7 Sects on the continent.'
A seed of regret was implanted in Lisa's heart, and the unwillingness to share information disappeared.
'Why should I care about a Sect that doesn't care about me? If I can survive in exchange for providing bits of information about the Sect, I'll gladly do it.'
"The Yin-Yang Energy Transference Technique is just like the description says. It's basically a technique solely used to transfer Qi to one another, refine it, and use it to boost your cultivation. It's a fairly simple technique and is given to pretty much all Yin-Yang Sect disciples." Lisa answered truthfully.
Mira's eyebrows rose in surprise at her honesty, but seeing the look in Lisa's eyes, she understood why.
'So, she doesn't have much loyalty to the Sect, if any. Interesting.' Mira thought.
"Are there any techniques that branch off of the Yin-Yang Energy Transference Technique? For example, is there a technique that can be used to boost the power of your affinity or anything like that?" Mira asked.
"Ummm… Maybe? I've never seen one, but I have heard that the Main Sect has some extraordinary cultivation techniques that can do more than just boost one's cultivation. What they do exactly, I'm not sure." Lisa answered as honestly as she could, but at the end of the day, she was just a branch sect disciple.
Thus, her knowledge was limited to only what a branch sect disciple would know.
Mira nodded and asked, "What's your primary cultivation technique, and what benefits does it provide you?"
For some reason, Lisa blushed in shame, but she still answered.
"The Sect calls it the 'Yin Essence Consititution' cultivation technique, but the disciples just call it the… Ummm… the 'Yintercourse technique. It basically makes my body more sensitive and my sex fluids more abundant in energy."
"..."
Mira was speechless.
'Is there really such a cultivation technique? It sounds grand, but it's actually so useless. Well, I guess it'd be useful to dual cultivators.'
"Ahem… Is there anything else special about this cultivation technique? For example, maybe your affinity for ice is higher or something like that." Mira asked.
"Well, I guess you could say my affinity towards the elements that are considered to be Yin Elements has risen, but it's not like I suddenly turned into a genius. Though, now that you mention it, my womanly charm and beauty have increased quite a bit since I started cultivating this technique." Lisa answered after giving it some genuine thought.
Mira's opinion of the cultivation technique dropped again, but she refused to believe a technique given to every Yin-Yang Sect disciple was so useless. This was one of the strongest Sects on the continent! There had to be something unique to it.
For example, the cultivation technique given by the Battle Maiden Sect to all Outer Court Disciples can temper the body, hasten their cultivation, and temporarily increase their strength whenever you enter battle.
Although that's all great, there are some downsides to it. For example, your cultivation will be slower than what other techniques provide outside of battle. That's just one of the downsides, but for those who join the Battle Maiden Sect, the pros outweigh the cons.
That's just the basic cultivation technique serving as the foundation for all future Battle Maiden Sect cultivation techniques as well. When one rises in status, they are given a higher-graded version of the technique.
Thus, she didn't believe Lisa's cultivation technique would be so useless.
"Use that technique to cultivate for a bit. I want to see its effects in real-time." Mira ordered, and Lisa nodded.
Qi began circulating inside Lisa's body, and Mira didn't notice anything abnormal, except that after the Qi was refined and sent to her soul and core to boost her cultivation, some energy went to her uterus.
Other than that, it was just a standard cultivation technique.
However, Mira could tell that the energy resting in her uterus was quite unique. She didn't know exactly what it was but guessed that it should be the 'Yin essence' part of the cultivation technique.
"Do you have a copy of this technique with you?" Mira asked, but Lisa shook her head
Mira expected this and just noted in the back of her mind that she'd need to pay the Yin-Yang Sect a little 'visit' when she gets stronger.
Everything about "Yin Essence" and "Energy Transference" interested Mira and might be her ticket to swiftly increasing her power.
Those were all the questions Mira had, and before Lisa could say anything, Mira appeared behind her and chopped her neck, knocking her unconscious.
She then picked up Hana, destroyed all the evidence of Derek being killed, then left the inn. She had attracted a bit too much attention earlier by removing her mask in public and didn't want to coincidentally run into an Elder or the Sect Master of the branch Yin-Yang Sect.
"Why didn't you kill her?" Hana suddenly asked as they were leaving.
"Why should I? She's a good kid who just happened to be at the wrong place, at the wrong time, with the wrong person." Mira answered nonchalantly.
"Hmph! Are you sure it's not just because she's a girl?"
"..."
Shortly after, the two managed to leave Plum Blossom City without trouble!
