# Chapter 2183: Killing Aura
At this moment, Jiangnan and Damon gazed deeply into each other's eyes, their gazes intertwining and clashing in the air!
(メᵒ̴̶̷̥́﹏ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀): "Big brother!"
(ᵒ̴̶̷◡ᵒ̴̶̷๑): "Little brother!"
Their hands gripped tightly together!
Even Chong Feiyu and Wang Youzhi couldn't help but twitch their mouths. Do you two really have to act like you've found each other so late?
Jiangnan changed the subject: "So can you tell me more about that Killing Aura? I want to learn it!"
As soon as this was brought up, Damon's expression turned serious!
(ಠĹ̯ಠメ) "Since Brother Jiangnan insists on learning this, I'll explain it to you. Your awareness is even greater than mine, so you should be able to handle it!"
"I just don't know if humans can cultivate this Killing Aura secret art. In history, no race other than the Killing Emperor Clan has ever succeeded in mastering it!"
"But I've already seen the prototype of Brother Jiangnan's killing momentum earlier. That... what was that?"
Jiangnan grinned: "That was Old Wang's specialty. He developed it himself, and I learned it from him. I can introduce you two sometime!"
"Go on, go on! What exactly is this Killing Aura?"
Even Chong Feiyu and Wang Youzhi became interested now.
Damon wiped away a tear, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to impart his knowledge!
"To condense Killing Aura, you first need to understand what it is! It's not energy, nor does it even truly exist. It is a kind of momentum!"
"As long as life exists, it has its own momentum. A three-year-old child has it, and so does an old person on their deathbed! This is called human momentum!"
"In my Killing Emperor Clan's philosophy! Whenever you kill! The momentum of the life you've taken does not dissipate but is transferred to you and accumulated!"
"If you are stronger than them and end their lives, their momentum transfers to you! This is called seizing momentum!"
Jiangnan felt his scalp tingle. This wasn't too different from the theory Old Wang had taught him!
Those who have killed and those who haven't have different eyes and auras!
It's just that Old Wang hadn't delved as deeply as the Killing Emperor Clan!
But in just over twenty years, Old Wang had figured out a prototype of the Killing Emperor Clan's core secret art through his own efforts?
You're still the man, Old Wang!
Damon said solemnly: "So theoretically, the more you kill, the stronger your human momentum becomes, and the heavier your accumulated killing momentum! The countless lives you've personally ended, enemies, the baptism of blood—all of these also nurture your will!"
"Develop absolute confidence and a determination to win every battle! Your momentum will grow stronger! One with strong momentum has already won half the battle before it even begins!"
"It might even eventually cultivate an invincible momentum! Once killing momentum is unleashed, the enemy's courage shatters and their liver bursts! Overwhelming them with momentum alone!"
Jiangnan's eyes sparkled: (ง✧ﾛ✧)ง "An invincible momentum? Sounds great!"
He had indeed experienced the benefits of momentum. Sometimes, when killing momentum was unleashed, the opponent didn't even have the courage to attack!
Damon continued: "But this is just a fantasy. I've never seen momentum that strong! And the process of accumulating killing momentum is extremely dangerous!"
"Excessive confidence becomes arrogance. Your will can be swayed by killing momentum, and the result would be..."
No need to explain, Jiangnan already knew the result. You become a mad killing machine, losing all respect and reverence for life!
Damon was an example. He had lost himself in the process of nurturing momentum!
This secret art was very dangerous. It was the purest path of entering the Dao through killing! It was like walking on a tightrope, carefully maintaining yourself!
One thought of heaven, one thought of hell. A single misstep and you fall into the abyss of slaughter!
Jiangnan asked curiously: "So what about Killing Aura? That red mist?"
Damon wiped his nose: "Killing Aura needs to be condensed with willpower. When your killing momentum reaches a certain level, it takes form as a scarlet Killing Aura!"
"That is the visualization of your momentum. If it gets stronger, the scarlet Killing Aura will condense into a solid scarlet Killing Star! That's truly terrifying!"
"To cultivate the Killing Aura secret art, you ultimately need to pour the Killing Aura condensed from your own momentum back into your body! Let your body carry and fuse with the killing momentum, unleashing your strongest combat power! There's a saying: 'Momentum cannot be stopped!'"
Jiangnan's eyes lit up. So that day, Damon's Killing Emperor personality become so fierce by pouring his Killing Aura into his body?
"And then? And then?"
Damon scratched his head: "Killing Aura has many uses. It can greatly enhance your physical strength, and even heal fatal wounds!"
"Because Killing Aura is obtained by seizing momentum, perhaps by ending another's life, the vitality from their momentum transfers into yours? Even my Killing Emperor Clan hasn't fully figured this out!"
"Momentum itself is a very ethereal concept, but it is definitely not energy!"
Wang Youzhi was also deep in thought. Something related to causality?
After all, momentum and seizing momentum were more about intangible things. You couldn't say it didn't exist because it was real, but you couldn't say it truly existed because it couldn't be seen or touched!
But some things simply couldn't be fully explained by existing theories!
Yet the ability to heal injuries was real, with terrifying recovery power!
Damon continued: "Pouring Killing Aura into the body also has a powerful armor-piercing effect. After all, momentum is like splitting bamboo, fierce and unstoppable. It's similar to enchantment, with many ways to apply it!"
"However, pouring Killing Aura into the body is also the most dangerous process! You fall into a state of extreme madness, craving blood and slaughter, even losing your ability to judge properly!"
"But you become absolutely certain of your own existence, constantly struggling with yourself throughout the process!"
"I can't explain that feeling clearly. Only those who have experienced it firsthand understand, but normal people who try it once will never want to try it again!"
This excited Jiangnan immensely. He immediately asked Damon to teach him how to stimulate and condense Killing Aura with willpower!
[Skill triggered! Killing Aura Secret Art (Beginner): LV0!]
[Add skill points?]
Jiangnan grinned slyly. As expected, System Baby always came through at critical moments!
Max out the Heaven-Show level!
[Add skill points: 111111000 points!]
[Skill upgraded! Killing Aura Secret Art (Heaven-Show level): MAX!]
This was the same as the Eight Nether Styles, requiring a massive amount of skill points to max out, with the highest being Heaven-Show!
Fortunately, he still had plenty left after adding to the Eight Nether Styles. Countless knowledge flooded into Jiangnan's mind!
It included not only how to seize momentum and condense Killing Aura with willpower but also various applications of Killing Aura!
Completely comprehensive and even safer than what Damon taught him!
But even though it was safe, after fully understanding it, Jiangnan couldn't help but feel chills down his spine!
One wrong move and you'd directly fall into darkness, becoming a killing machine!
But high risk also meant high reward!
The boost to combat power was immense. After all, who would complain about having too many trump cards?
Jiangnan couldn't wait to try it out!
(︶◠︶〃)ﾉ "Alright! You don't need to explain anymore. I already understand!"
Damon froze, then chuckled dryly:
(⌒ㅂ⌒メ) "How is that possible? Don't be impatient. Let me finish explaining. You need thorough understanding!"
"Once something goes wrong in the cultivation process, the consequences are severe. You need to proceed step by step..."
Before he could finish, Damon froze because Jiangnan's expression had turned serious!
He fully released his killing momentum, beginning to condense it into Killing Aura!
Not only the lives Jiangnan had personally ended before, but also the hundreds of trillions of lives that died because of Jiangnan during the Thousand Stars Great Catastrophe!
All the momentum seized was stacked and counted on Jiangnan's head!
Even if Jiangnan hadn't personally killed them, didn't know who they were, or what they looked like, the orders and decisions were made by Jiangnan!
Strictly speaking, all these lives ended because of Jiangnan's existence. Every cause had its effect!
Under cause and effect, Jiangnan shouldered all this karmic retribution!
"BOOM!"
In the entire cell, all the dolls instantly shattered, and even the strong-alloy cell walls were deformed by the impact!
Jiangnan's killing momentum soared, seemingly without limit, blasting the cell door clean off its hinges!
Damon's eyes widened in shock!
(メÒ口Ó) "Holy shi...!"
Before, Jiangnan hadn't gone through proper will guidance, and his killing momentum was only a crude prototype!
But now, under the Killing Aura Secret Art, all the killing momentum accumulated on Jiangnan from birth until now was fully unleashed!
Incredibly terrifying and powerful, enough to suffocate anyone!
However, this extremely strong killing momentum began to condense wildly at this moment, turning into a vivid scarlet Killing Aura centered on Jiangnan!
Like a mountain flood bursting or a dam collapsing, it poured out violently!
The scarlet mist completely swallowed Jiangnan's figure, spreading out in all directions like a river of blood!
Penetrating walls and corridors, nothing seemed able to stop the spread of the Killing Aura!
Prisoners in other cells screamed in terror as the ferocious Killing Aura overwhelmed them! They wet themselves in fear!
They even felt as if they were already dead, trapped in hell!
In the dense red mist, Jiangnan's figure was barely visible. Only two pairs of scarlet eyes could be seen, seemingly capable of tearing apart souls and devouring them, terrifying both body and mind!
Damon stared in horror at this scene, sitting slumped on the ground, his face pale!
Σ(°△°|||) "Wh... what kind of terrifying killing momentum is this? How many lives has Brother Jiangnan ended?"
"And he's already condensed scarlet Killing Aura directly? Humans can learn it too?"
Even within the Killing Emperor Clan, those who could condense scarlet Killing Aura were all top-tier figures!
Even then, it required long-term accumulation!
Jiangnan had just listened to him for a few sentences and already used it?
Damon had never seen such terrifying momentum in his entire life. Under this crushing momentum, the Killing Emperor personality within him even began to stir restlessly!
And in Damon's shocked gaze, Jiangnan's massive scarlet Killing Aura began to furiously condense into a Killing Star!
