Chapter 260: Chapter 156: A Page from the Time History Book
"Don’t move around so much, or it might be difficult to piece me back together if you crush my parts." Gu Shanhai glanced at Huang Yanshan, who was biting his tongue, and then proceeded to stitch up his own wounds while casually tearing off a blood-stained ginseng and tossing it to him, "Here, you look so drained. Take this to replenish your energy, have a taste of something fresh."
"Uncle, I understand that your body contains various fragments and offal, since I have those too, but what are these flowers and trees..." As Huang Yanshan watched Gu Shanhai rapidly pull something resembling a pebble out of his own body, he understood at once—it was a sprouted but flattened tree seed.
Gu Shanhai carefully identified it as a hazelnut tree, not minding that it wasn’t ripe, he stuffed it in his mouth and chewed. The taste was actually not bad.
"Oh, some insignificant little modifications. If it weren’t for these plants, I wouldn’t have made it back," Gu Shanhai mumbled while continuing to sew himself up.
When Azure Dragon had brought Gu Shanhai back, it had nearly scared Huang Yanshan to death. At that time, Gu Shanhai’s condition couldn’t be measured in individual parts; it was more like a heap or a puddle, barely resembling a human form. Huang Yanshan even thought Gu Shanhai was dead.
However, when he saw Gu Shanhai’s trembling, incomplete arms moving to stitch himself up, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I’m telling you, that Martial Ancestor is incredibly outrageous. If I hadn’t been a step ahead in skill and quick to escape, I would’ve left even more parts over there," Gu Shanhai said gloomily. His head had regrown afterward.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to regenerate everything, but his vitality wasn’t sufficient. Dugu Tiansheng’s strength was extremely formidable. His attack had not only affected Gu Shanhai’s physical body but had also injured his soul. Luckily, his soul could also regenerate. Like a cockroach, as long as he wasn’t killed, Gu Shanhai would be hopping around again after some time.
As for healing spells and the like, they were practically useless against such an opponent. Gu Shanhai’s own healing spells couldn’t cure him; after all, healing spells were just a derivative use of vitality.
His vitality was now overextended; where would he find more to use? He wasn’t even healing sufficiently.
"My heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys haven’t regrown yet. Not having blood circulation for so long gives me the illusion of cold rain haphazardly slapping on my face," Gu Shanhai sighed. His survival now depended entirely on Azure Dragon and Little White. Then he glanced at Huang Yanshan, who was holding the Spirit Plant·King of Hundred Herbs, and felt somewhat puzzled.
"Eat it, or it will get cold soon," Gu Shanhai kindly reminded.
Huang Yanshan’s eyelid twitched, then he said, "Uncle, don’t you think you’re the one who needs nourishment, not me..."
He was really at a loss for words. Then he witnessed Gu Shanhai swallowing the hazelnut and retrieving it back from his esophagus, completely intact.
"Guess what, I don’t have a heart, liver, spleen, lungs, or kidneys. Oh, I don’t even have my teeth grown back. What could I use to replenish? To replenish the kidneys, I’d need a stomach to digest and intestines to absorb food, as well as a kidney as an organ," Gu Shanhai adjusted his own head, which was still made of cartilage and not fully developed bones, so it tended to wobble from time to time.
This sight sent chills down Huang Yanshan’s spine. The fact that Gu Shanhai was still alive was indeed somewhat outrageous. However, recalling how he himself had survived the terrifying force he unleashed using magnetism, and that his condition was just slightly better than Gu Shanhai’s, this all became much more normal to him.
Regarding Gu Shanhai’s situation, all Huang Yanshan could think was, "The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree," as both of them were quite outlandish.
"Oh, that does make some sense..." Huang Yanshan conceded that Gu Shanhai made a very good point. He casually gnawed on the ginseng in his hand. The taste wasn’t particularly pleasant, bloody with a hint of ginseng flavor, and difficult to swallow.
"Speaking of which, we have ginseng, and I’ve got half a Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus here too. Take advantage of its warmth and chew on it. If you had gathered all those herbs for me back then, tonight you could have put together three dishes and a soup by yourself," Gu Shanhai rummaged and found the half piece of the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus. Luckily, it was the upper half; the lower half would have been even less appetizing.
"So, Uncle, don’t you find it disgusting to plant all these flowers and grasses inside your body?" Huang Yanshan didn’t catch the half piece of the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus that hit him on the forehead. It was mainly because Gu Shanhai used too much strength and Huang Yanshan, being weakened, couldn’t lift his arms that high.
The two were on par in terms of condition, although Huang Yanshan was slightly more intact than Gu Shanhai. Indeed, with the latter’s current state, he could crush Huang Yanshan to death with just his forehead.
"At first, I didn’t quite get used to it, you know. It’s truly uncomfortable to have this stuff embedded in flesh and bone, but eventually I became accustomed to it," Gu Shanhai then pulled out a small portion of Circulation Vine, which was also dead and would have to wait for his recovery to regrow.
After cleaning up for half an hour, the two bantered back and forth, and Huang Yanshan grew increasingly in awe of Gu Shanhai’s actions, which gave him goosebumps just thinking about them.
No wonder Gu Shanhai wouldn’t pass on the Heavenly Gang Child Skill; so it turned out to be such an abnormal Cultivation Technique.
After comparison, the Purple Profound Thunder Skill might not be as powerful as Gu Shanhai’s, but at least it had a higher upper limit. Especially after Gu Shanhai had performed one of the ultimate moves of the Purple Thunder Saber Technique, Heavenly Thunder Slashing True Dragon, Huang Yanshan felt its potential was even greater.
"Uncle, can we really defeat that Martial Ancestor?" Huang Yanshan eventually asked.
