Su Tu chuckled softly.

"Little Tu, listen to Granny's advice, that technique is a trap, one wrong move, and it can be deadly."

The usually silent Granny She suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Su Tu was evidently even more intrigued.

Seeing Su Tu's curious gaze, Granny She couldn't help but sigh, "Ah, young people are always curious about everything."

"This technique, called 'Sacrificial Dao', is an explosive technique. Once used, one's strength, speed, Qi, and even heart and spirit will greatly increase."

"And hidden within are five killing techniques. Master them all, and their lethality may even surpass that of a typical Tier Eight technique."

Upon hearing Granny She's words, Su Tu became even more curious.

According to the old woman's explanation, the Sacrificial Dao is the strongest of the three techniques, comparable to Tier Eight techniques' five killing moves, a technique that can explosively enhance all of one's attributes in battle.

Compared to such a technique, the Profound Celestial Step and the Path of Destruction Three Emptiness are noticeably inferior.

However, Su Tu knew that this technique was not so simple. The more powerful it is, the more stringent the cultivation requirements, especially since Granny She just mentioned that this technique could be deadly.

As expected.

Granny She continued to speak.

"This technique would have been considered an evil or demonic art in the past. Only the supreme talents can cultivate it; ordinary ones would see their flesh crumble in the moment they accept the inheritance! To learn this, it is extremely strict!"

"And to perform this technique is even more demanding, requiring the burning of one's internal vitality to worship the Martial Arts Dao!!"

"This technique consumes a massive amount of vitality. Once, a Celestial Being who practiced this method used the Sacrificial Dao in a great battle,

he unleashed power far exceeding that of a Celestial Being, even heavily injuring a Venerable, but the Sacrificial Dao also almost instantly devoured all the Celestial Being's blood and vitality as an offering."

Granny She looked earnestly at Su Tu.

"So, this technique cannot be practiced, should not be practiced. Little Tu, your martial arts talent and heart and spirit aptitude are top-notch in the world, and you have a long road ahead. This Sacrificial Dao that devours vitality offers you no benefits and only harm."

"Even if you survive using this technique by chance, the lost vitality will impact your martial path."

"Therefore, listen to Granny, don't consider the Sacrificial Dao, choose between the Path of Destruction Three Emptiness and the Profound Celestial Step."

Listening to Granny's nagging in his ears, Su Tu felt her worry and care.

But....

He looked at that black Treasure Bead with eyes full of brilliance!!

Devouring vitality, using vitality to worship the Martial Arts Dao, thereby unleashing astonishing battle power!

Others may get drained of vitality when using the Sacrificial Dao, or die, or suffer physical damage.

But Su Tu did not have such concerns at all!!

With the combination of Eternal Life and Plunder, as long as the enemy still exists, Su Tu essentially has an endless supply of vitality. Therefore, the issue of the Sacrificial Dao devouring vitality is not a problem for Su Tu.

If the current combination of Eternal Life and Plunder is a perpetual machine, then coupling it with the power boost of the Sacrificial Dao is akin to equipping a nuclear weapon augment to a perpetual machine!!

This isn't a matter of whether it's suited, the Sacrificial Dao seems tailor-made for Su Tu!!!

As for insufficient physical aptitude causing physical collapse the instant he receives the inheritance...

Su Tu feared the Inheritance Bead might not withstand his physique and would instead collapse!

"Granny, Teacher Wei Yang, I understand your point."

Su Tu said.

Granny She breathed a sigh of relief; this child still listens to reason, the Sacrificial Dao is simply not meant for humans...

The old lady was about to say something, but Su Tu's next words almost made her faint.

Su Tu, without any hesitation, directly stated.

"I want to learn the Sacrificial Dao!!"

Wei Yang and Granny She both looked at Su Tu with gloomy expressions.

Alright, alright, so that's your understanding of our point, right???

You understood, but still won't listen!!!

Seeing their expressions, Su Tu naturally knew what they were thinking, but his system panel was Su Tu's biggest secret, one he wouldn't share with anyone.

Facing the two elders who sincerely taught him, Su Tu spoke very earnestly.

"Granny, Teacher Wei Yang, trust me, since I choose this technique, I have the confidence to master it."

"Child, do you know how many prodigies flocked to it when this technique first appeared, but in the end, only a few learned it, and none dared to use it..."

"Using vitality to worship the Martial Arts Dao is no joke!!"

"Moreover, unlike other techniques, accepting this one's inheritance could very likely cause a reverse flow of all body vitality, leading to physical collapse — calling it an evil art is no exaggeration, you mustn't..."

Wei Yang was still earnestly explaining.

Beside him, Granny She didn't speak, but kept nodding repeatedly.

However, looking at the two concerned individuals, Su Tu smiled slightly.

"If no one has succeeded before me, then let all beings witness me after!!"

"Teachers, Granny, trust me."

Su Tu said seriously, sincerely.

Hearing him speak this way, Wei Yang wanted to say something, but Granny She raised a hand to stop him.

"Alright! Child, Granny believes in you. Since you've made your choice, go your own way."

Afterwards, with a wave of her hand, the black, ominous Inheritance Bead floated directly in front of Su Tu.

Su Tu didn't hesitate at all, directly grabbing the bead in his hand.

The next moment!!

An indescribable guidance force drew his heart and spirit into it.

"Those three beads, when grasped, did not have this guiding force..." Before Su Tu's heart and spirit completely entered the Inheritance Bead, a thought arose in his mind...

...

"Director She, how could you agree to let him practice the Sacrificial Dao?"

Wei Yang couldn't understand why Granny She relented, his eyes firmly fixed on Su Tu, fearing the reversal of his vitality and physical collapse.

"Haven't you seen through Little Tu's personality yet?"

"He seems gentle as jade, but is fierce like a fierce weapon; whatever he sets his mind on, he will do."

"And besides, true prodigies have their unique encounters, I believe in this child!"

Although Granny She spoke of her belief, there was indescribable concern in her eyes.

Her attention was also focused on Su Tu, a gentle True Qi surfacing on her hand, ready to protect Su Tu's body at any sign of trouble.

"Learning the Sacrificial Dao — the higher the talent, the faster the inheritance is accepted, simultaneously raising the risk of physical collapse with every moment of acceptance.

"Why doesn't this child listen to reason? He's a natural Ancient Skill candidate; if anything happens to him, what will happen to our specialization!!"

Wei Yang kept muttering to himself.

Granny She also sighed slightly.

"The fastest record for mastering the Sacrificial Dao was set by a supreme prodigy with opened Thirteen Celestial Acupoints.

Heard he endured unimaginable pain, as though his blood was the pouring rain, his bones crumbling, suffering for three days to master the Sacrificial Dao, I wonder how long Little Tu will take...

Granny She hadn't finished her sentence.

A sudden change occurred!

Buzz buzz buzz!!!

Su Tu, who had been standing still with the Inheritance Bead in his hand, suddenly emitted black rays of light, ethereal black lines instantly spread all over him.

A powerful aura far exceeding the Mingtiao Realm erupted instantly, as if something invisible was burning on Su Tu's body.

And then.....

Under the incredulous gazes of Wei Yang and Granny She, the black lines contracted, Su Tu's bright eyes slowly opened, carrying a hint of joy.

"Old Wei... what was the previous record again..."

Granny She looked at everything before her, feeling her throat dry, even forgetting what she hadn't finished saying.

"Three.. three..." Beside her, Wei Yang was somewhat speechless as well.

Granny She absentmindedly waved her hand...

"Never mind, it no longer matters; from now on, don't mention prodigies, geniuses to me. If that's the measure...??"
