Chapter 176: 0158: Learning Dragon Subduing, Hammering Vipers (Guaranteed Update Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Life and Death Mother and Child Worm?"
Upon hearing these few words, Jiang Dali’s face changed instantly, and he spoke solemnly, "The Life and Death Mother and Child Worm concocted by sects like the Golden Flower Sect in the Southwest Miao Border? It’s rumored that the Golden Flower Sect’s reputation for Gu Techniques in the Martial World is such that no one dares to provoke them.
Those adept at Gu Techniques are generally women, who are often young and beautiful, yet their temperaments are unpredictable.
Among them, the Gu masters often imperceptibly place the Gu Worm onto their adversaries..."
Ting Shui’s eyes were covered, so she couldn’t see Jiang Dali’s expression, but she could discern his tone and lightly laughed, "Indeed, I didn’t expect you to be so well-informed, even clearly understanding the origins of the Life and Death Mother and Child Worm.
This will make our communication much easier."
Jiang Dali, "The self-rescue you’re talking about, is to get the Life and Death Mother and Child Worm. I take the Mother Worm, and you take the Child Worm. After that, you’re under my control, eliminating my hesitations and concerns?"
Ting Shui nodded, "Correct. Once the Mother and Child Worms are ingested, the one who ingests the Mother Worm will be fine, but the one with the Child Worm must consume ten drops of fresh blood from the Mother Worm bearer every 49 days to prevent the Child Worm from wreaking havoc, burrowing into the heart and causing death.
Moreover, this kind of Gu Worm fears not the impact of Inner Qi; instead, it thrives and strengthens its life force when nourished by Inner Qi. Unless summoned by the Mother Worm, it’s very difficult to expel it from the body.
The one who consumes the child worm is destined to be controlled by the one who ingests the mother worm, with little chance of escape.
Even as one of the Abnormal People with an Undying Body, it is hard to rid oneself of a child worm once attached.
Therefore, as long as we get this Life and Death Mother and Child Worm, with you ingesting the Mother Worm and me the Child Worm, there would be no need for us to be locked up in chains like now.
I am willing to do three things for you to make amends for my previous offense."
"Hehehe, aren’t you afraid that after ingesting the Life and Death Mother and Child Worm, I will use it to threaten and control you?"
Jiang Dali scoffed coldly.
Ting Shui spoke indifferently, "In everything, one must be frank and open. I can also honestly say that even though we, the Abnormal People, take such a Gu Worm, we could forcibly expel the Gu Worm at a great cost, but the key issue is whether the price is worth it.
I am willing to do three things for you, which is the value I place on obtaining my freedom now and resolving any issues between us.
If you are not willing, then continue to tie me up daily, and both of us will be inconvenienced.
But if you are willing, once the three things you request are done, then help me remove the Child Worm, and we can each get what we need, mutually benefitting.
This can be seen as the beginning of a bridge of cooperation between us."
Jiang Dali paused in his tracks, weighing and pondering internally.
Ting Shui was indeed a very intelligent and rational person.
Every choice she made was based on the perspective of interest, and she considered everything thoroughly.
Originally, his plan was to exterminate Ting Shui once he obtained the "Life-taking Thirteen Swords" and the "Protective Three Marvelous Hands" secret manuals, and then let her go.
In doing so, not only would her value be completely squeezed dry, but there would also be no need to constantly guard against Tyrant Hall trying to steal or take people, allowing the Mountain Village more room for development.
But then Tyrant Hall still foolishly thought to take someone away from him with the Witch Wanwan, naturally angering him.
However, in this moment, Ting Shui immediately made concessions, actively taking risks to dispel his anger and avoid worse outcomes.
It had to be said that this was a very clever move on her part.
The Life and Death Mother and Child Worm was indeed a very unique and extraordinary item.
In his previous life, there had been players who had been afflicted with a Child Worm by masters of the Golden Flower Sect.
Yet it was discovered that even when they committed suicide, the Child Worm unexpectedly did not disappear from their bodies.
It was only after dying five times that the Child Worm might completely vanish.
This was mainly because such a living entity, once inside a body, would rapidly multiply, spreading through the entire body, and couldn’t be easily expelled by dying once and instantly reviving. Unless one was dead and didn’t revive until the Child Worm was completely expelled, which was also meaningless.
And for each Life and Death Mother and Child Worm, one corresponds to the other; each Mother Worm produces only one Child Worm.
If Ting Shui was willing to consume the Child Worm and he took the Mother Worm, she would be controlled by him apart from dying five times, something even the Golden Flower Sect couldn’t undo.
And the penalty for dying five times consecutively was presumably a price she was not willing to bear.
"I can agree to your request, that’s not impossible."
Jiang Dali said with a faint smile, after his contemplation, "However, ’Life-taking Thirteen Swords’ and ’Protective Three Marvelous Hands’ secret manuals still need to be delivered from your side first, apart from the three demands.
In addition, I want to use one request now. Your Tyrant Hall has a significant amount of power, so you must have long infiltrated the Holy Dynasty.
I want you to solve the troubles with the court for me, so that the Embroidered Uniform Guard and Six Gates don’t come looking for trouble with me for at least three months."
Ting Shui took a sharp breath.
Black Wind Village Chief Jiang Dali was truly extraordinary.
The requirement he put forward was not simple.
The Yun Family had indeed planted people in the Holy Dynasty as officials long ago.
But this was something unknown to the Martial World.
The fact that Black Wind Village Chief could vaguely guess it indicated that he might also have a very terrifying information channel.
"I will consider it."
Ting Shui didn’t agree outright.
It would mean using the family’s power that had been planted in the court of the Holy Dynasty long ago.
This could be breaking some of the previous plans, which required discussion.
"Hehehe, then you should rest for a while."
Jiang Dali chuckled lightly, and a burst of Inner Qi erupted directly from behind.
Ting Shui was struck as if by thunder, stunned and instantly unconscious.
...
Half a day later.
In the high skies on the way to West Snake Mountain.
Jiang Dali sat on an Ice Soul Jade Chair on Demon Hawk’s back, while Ting Shui was tied behind the chair.
He was healing while quickly grasping the fragmented "Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm Technique".
Ever since returning, he had commanded a skilled craftsman to carve an Ice Soul Jade Stone into a chair and place it on Demon Hawk’s back to make riding more comfortable.
As for the offcuts of the Ice Soul Jade Stone, they were made into jewelry and accessories, prepared to be awarded to outstanding subordinates later on.
Turning the Ice Soul Jade Stone into a chair did not affect its properties.
On the contrary, the effect of the small jewelry and ornaments was significantly lessened.
At this moment, Jiang Dali traveled and trained simultaneously.
Insights and understandings of the "Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm Technique" continuously flowed into his mind, each move flashing through his mind rapidly.
Time passed, no one knew how long.
Jiang Dali’s eyes suddenly brightened, his spirit shook, and he snapped out of his state of sudden enlightenment.
A delightful prompt appeared on his panel.
"You have comprehended the fragmentary Heavenly Rank Absolute Skill ’Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm.’ Your reputation has increased by 500, and your Qi-Blood has strengthened by 100. Your current Realm of comprehension is Beginner’s Level 1."
Jiang Dali quickly looked at his panel.
There he saw the ’Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm,’ lying quietly within the panel, and a smile slowly spread across his lips.
He suddenly rose to his feet, and the fiery, domineering Inner Qi inside him burst forth.
Jiang Dali’s momentum reached its peak in an instant as he let out a long howl and unleashed a palm towards the empty space.
Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm — Dragon in the Field!
A roar!!!
A terrifying wave of Qi that sounded like a dragon’s howl suddenly exploded in mid-air! The huge soundwave crazily echoed in the sky, tearing through the wild winds. A visual yellow dragon made of Qi-force rampaged fiercely and immediately stirred up transformations in the distant clouds and wind.
"Hahaha— Heavenly Rank Palm Technique, indeed worthy of its might!" Jiang Dali laughed heartily, albeit with a pale face.
Just this one palm had instantly consumed 500 points of his Inner Qi.
And that was without going all out.
The Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm, true to its name of vigorous and powerful Heavenly Rank Palm Technique, had a truly demanding requirement for Inner Qi.
However, he practiced the Nine Yang Divine Skill, and his Inner Qi had already reached as much as 4600 points when the Nine Yang Divine Skill had broken through to the 3rd Realm.
After fusing with the Marriage Dress Divine Skill, it had reached a terrifying level of 5100 points.
In terms of the total amount and power of Inner Qi, he had already surpassed the strength he had in his previous life when he was a player in the Gang Qi Realm.
Moreover, the speed of Nine Yang Rejuvenation was so fast that, in just an instant, he had already naturally recovered 50 points of Inner Qi.
With the Dragon Subduing Twenty-Eight Palm in his hands, it was bound to shine and dominate far and wide.
"Who are those wretched calves from West Snake Mountain thinking of scheming against Laozi in the shadows? This time, Laozi will go over there and give a dozen slaps to each of them, suffocating you bunch of bastards!"
Jiang Dali hugged his arms and laughed heartily, his hair that had grown down to his shoulders dancing in the wild wind, his aura intimidating.
...
Meanwhile, at the same time.
West Snake Mountain.
The mountain bandits of West Snake Mountain Village and the bandits from Black Wind Village who had retreated into the valley were in a standoff at a distance.
Any bandit from Black Wind Village who dared to leave the valley would be ambushed and eradicated by West Snake Mountain Village bandits.
And as long as they didn’t leave the valley, West Snake Mountain Village would also not attack.
Such a stalemate of surrounding without attacking had persisted for a long time.
Until half a day ago, when numerous independent players and guild players spontaneously formed around West Snake Mountain and attacked, did they cause a bit of trouble for West Snake Mountain Village.
But that was merely a bit of trouble.
After the expert swordsman from West Snake Mountain Village took action, the wilderness players who had accepted the faction camp task issued by Black Wind Village Chief also suffered heavy casualties.
For a time, the wilderness players also backed off, surrounding West Snake Mountain but daring not rashly attack again.
As a result, the battle situation at West Snake Mountain once again fell into a deadlock, with the initiative still in the hands of the West Snake Mountain Village.
However, West Snake Mountain Village’s tactic of surrounding without attacking held a great deal of interest as if deliberately forcing a certain person to come to the rescue.
This point, many people had already thought of.
On the Jianghu Forum, numerous players from West Snake Mountain posted speculations that a major event might happen at West Snake Mountain.
West Snake Mountain Village surrounding Black Wind Mountain Village’s forces without attacking.
It was very likely that they wanted to draw out the chief of Black Wind Village.
Then what kind of confidence and ambush did West Snake Village have to dare target the fierce and dreaded Black Wind Village Chief?
Merely relying on the expert swordsman, it seemed far from enough.
Players were filled with suspicions.
Even more people turned their attention to the situation at West Snake Mountain, and many players from further away cities were rushing to West Snake Mountain for the excitement.
If Black Wind Village Chief really came to West Snake Mountain, and West Snake Mountain really had a big surprise prepared for him.
Then West Snake Mountain could truly erupt into a shocking battle, potentially no less significant than the previous war at Hu Mountain.
Players speculated that this could be Black Wind Mountain Village’s last grand battle before the end of the closed beta and the start of the open beta.
Perhaps it held some special significance, and something unexpected might happen.
It was even possible that the miraculous figure, Black Wind Village Chief, would meet his end in an unexpected way, signaling the collapse of a legendary force from the beta period.
As the Martial World shook and boiled with anticipation.
Inside the mountain fort of West Snake Mountain, two handsome young men were being treated as honored guests at this time.
One was carefree and irreverent, sitting askew as he drank from his jug, enjoying a massage from two beauties beside him in a dashing and unrestrained manner.
The other was calm and collected, drinking on his own, occasionally picking up a book from the side to browse through it, his attitude one of calm and composure.
As the great battle between West Snake Mountain Village and Black Wind Village unfolded,
These two seemed completely unaffected by the war, exuding a confidence as if holding all the winning cards.
Suddenly, a shadow flashed through the doorway; it was a swordsman wearing a bamboo hat.
The carefree young man impatiently threw his jug and said, "What now? Has that Black Wind Village Chief entirely lost the knack of appearing? Could he also be cowardly shying away?"
The swordsman took a seat and said, "It’s said that Black Wind Village Chief has an Exotic Beast, the Demon Hawk, which soars high and is extraordinary. Even if he were on his way here, I fear no one in the Martial World could glimpse or grasp his whereabouts..."
The carefree young man’s eyes flickered, and he turned with a laugh towards the calm young man, "Such a high-flying Exotic Bird, if it could be employed by us, wouldn’t we be even more capable of accomplishing great things? Wouldn’t you say, Mr. Ling?"
