Chapter 67: Undying
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Herlyee Translations
In the empty Black Tiger Gang’s hall, Lin Yan took out another spare mask from his pocket, only to discover that this mask had also been shattered in the previous battle.
He had no choice but to leave it on the ground.
He moved his arm and thigh. The previous action cracked the wounds on the two arrows, and blood slowly flowed down the shaft.
As the arrowhead was embedded in the flesh, pulling it out might cause a large piece of flesh to be pulled out, so Lin Yan didn’t have time to deal with it.
At this moment, the battle had come to an end. There was almost no one alive in the entire Black Tiger Gang. Lin Yan relaxed slightly.
He took out a dagger and recalled the way the doctors treated his wounds in his previous life. He aimed at the place where the arrow entered his body and made a cross cut.
If it was the previous Lin Yan, he definitely wouldn’t dare to do this.
However, in that seemingly tragic battle just now, he had already personally verified the special effect of the Five Animal Hands Technique, Rejuvenation.
That could be said to be a terrifying effect.
Therefore, at this moment, he only frowned slightly and cut open his flesh without any psychological burden. He pulled out the arrows in his arm and thigh.
Blood poured out like a pillar, and a heart piercing pain caused his face to turn slightly pale.
Lin Yan took out a bottle of Nether Return Powder and drank it mouthful by mouthful.
As the venom entered his stomach, intense blood energy began to surge into his entire body. Under the special attraction of his body’s circulation, it flowed into the wounds on his arm and thigh.
Soon, a numbing itch spread from the two wounds. Lin Yan counted for a few seconds and took a big gulp of Nether Return Powder.
After counting to about thirty, the itchiness of the two wounds subsided.
Lin Yan touched the two wounds. They were as smooth as before and had completely healed. It was as if the pain from the blood flow was just an illusion.
“How is this rejuvenation? This is clearly undying…”
Feeling the terrifying effect of rejuvenation again, Lin Yan still couldn’t help but feel excited.
Thinking back, when he was facing Black Tiger and the others, in order to end the battle as soon as possible, he completely adopted the method of exchanging injuries for lives!
As soon as they came into contact, his arm, chest, and abdomen were hit four times!
Other than the scale armor protecting his chest and preventing him from getting injured, his arms and abdomen were instantly covered in blood.
However, at this moment, he directly overturned a vine shield and killed the person holding the shield and saber behind him.
The following process was extremely fast. He avoided all the fatal attacks aimed at his head and resisted the sabers and spears with his body. Other than his chest and back, the rest of his body was covered in injuries. However, in less than two to three minutes, he killed all the troublesome Black Tigers on the spot.
According to the shocked words of the ten Black Tigers before they died, he was already certain that although he had only undergone one blood energy transformation, his strength had already reached the Tough Realm.
With such heavy injuries, anyone would have a slim chance of survival, especially since their tendons and joints were damaged. Even if they were at the Tough Realm, their strength had long been greatly reduced.
As for Lin Yan, he only drank a bottle of Nether Return Powder. He hurried along the way and quickly ran to find the leader of the Black Tiger Gang. His injuries were almost healed.
It took less than two minutes.
“It’s too fast. As long as there’s enough blood energy, I’ll recover too quickly..
The special effect of the Five Animal Hands Technique was called Rejuvenation. Its characteristic was that it could heal injuries by consuming blood energy.
Under normal circumstances, although this special effect was powerful, it was not that exaggerated.
This was because his total blood energy was limited. It would be exhausted after recovering one or two wounds.
The recovery of blood energy was naturally very slow, and precious medicine that could quickly recover blood energy was ridiculously expensive.
Therefore, it was useful to consume blood energy to recover from injuries, but there were also many limitations.
However, he had the Poison Transformation special effect!
Once the venom entered his stomach, it could instantly transform into blood energy!
The consumption of blood energy could immediately heal injuries! When the two were added together, it was simply 1+1 100. It directly made the Rejuvenation special effect produce a ridiculous effect similar to immortality!
A bottle of Nether Return Powder could save his life. As long as there was enough venom and his brain, heart, and other vital points were not severely injured, he could recover from his injuries in a short period of time and not die.
That was why he could easily defeat the Black Tiger Gang this time.
Lin Yan focused and opened the Golden Bodhi Scripture.
Basic information:
Skills: Devour (100%), Five Animal Hands (100%), Dragon-Shaped Fist (15%)
BlackJade Bodhi: Dao Fruit of All Wonders, Mahayana of Prajna (Current count: 2/2 completed. You can unlock a new Bodhi)
Special Effects:
BlackJade Bodhi – Extreme Sublimation: When a skill reaches 100% proficiency, it can be sublimated once.
Devour – Poison Transformation: Because you have tasted all kinds of poisons and are not dead, you have a body that is immune to all poisons. After consuming poisons, you can transform them into your blood and energy to nourish your body.
Five Animal Hands – Rejuvenation: Mix the Golden Tiger Bone, Moon Bear Gall, Heavenly Crane Dew, Demon Ape Wine, and Seven-Colored Deer Antler in one cauldron. Coupled with the Phoenix Fruit, you can eat it every day for a year. It will allow your blood energy to luckily obtain the Nirvana characteristic. It can consume blood energy and recover from injuries.
Lin Yan remembered that when he threw the Black Jade Bodhi that he had already accumulated into the Five Animal Hands, he seemed to have fallen into an illusion.
In the illusion, he did not do anything. Every day, he kept devouring some dazzling supplements.
After eating like this for an entire year, it naturally produced the special effect of rejuvenation.
“I remember that when the detoxification special effect was produced, I seemed to have fallen into an illusion. I tasted poison all over and my liver and intestines were broken, but I didn’t die. In the end, I completed the sublimation.
“It’s the same with the revival effect now.
Could it be that these special effects were not forcefully created by the Golden Bodhi Scripture, but that they can really exist in this world?
“If others follow the steps I experienced in the illusion and do it in reality, can they also produce the same special effect as me?”
Lin Yan felt that it was possible, but there was no way to verify it.
Putting aside how difficult it was to survive after tasting hundreds of poisons, the Golden Tiger Bones, Moon Bear Gall, and Seven-Colored Deer Antlers were not simple.
There was also the affix behind BlackJade Bodhi: Current count 2/2 has been completed. New Bodhi can be unlocked.
It seemed that the Golden Bodhi Scripture had another magical use.
However, he did not have the time to investigate now.
After closing the Golden Bodhi Scripture, Lin Yan moved his body. He was completely fine. Even his most hidden injuries had been healed.
He first picked up the gold bars and silver ingots that were scattered on the ground.
The gold bars were four taels each, and the four bars were a total of sixteen taels, which added up to 160 taels of silver. The silver ingot was nearly 30 taels, which added up to less than 200 taels.
There was also an exquisite booklet in the wooden box with the words “Emerald Wind Powder Recipe” written on it. No wonder everyone in the Black Tiger Gang had a bottle of Emerald Wind Powder.
He put away the silver and the prescription.
Then, he carefully searched the corpse of the leader of the Black Tiger Gang.
“Eh, this is.. ”
He had felt that there was something wrong with the leader of the Black Tiger Gang’s eyes just now. At this moment, he searched his arms and indeed took out a cylindrical bamboo tube-like thing.
He had seen this thing in Qinghong Martial Arts School. It was a disposable concealed weapon tube called the Storm Plum Needle.
The mixture of several powders could produce gas that could shoot out ten poisonous needles at once. It could also replace poison according to demand.
It was said that the poisonous needles shot out by this thing were extremely fast. They could injure a Tough Realm cultivator within a certain distance, so the price was 20 taels, and it was a one-time use. Lin Yan didn’t consider it.
He didn’t expect the leader of the Black Tiger Gang to be so rich that he actually matched one.
“Fortunately, I was decisive. Otherwise, it would have been a waste.
“I was just worried that I couldn’t kill the Du family’s Tough Realm expert with poison. With this Storm Plum Needle and the Ten Fragrances Soft Tendon Powder, it’s easier.”
After careful inspection, he took off another scale armor from the leader of the Black Tiger Gang.
It seemed that the leader of the Black Tiger Gang was also a regular customer of Qinghong Martial Arts School.
Unfortunately, he didn’t find any martial arts cultivation technique manuals. Logically speaking, the Black Tiger Gang should have them. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to nurture ten martial artists.
But Lin Yan couldn’t find it.
It should be because there were no secret manuals, so he could only give up.
After packing up all the spoils of war, Lin Yan’s gaze landed on the snow-white rice paper on the ground. It was clearly different from the surrounding items.
A thick haze flashed across his eyes.
“I placed the letter at home. It should have been taken by the Black Tiger Gang when they broke into the house.
“Maybe he threw it in the warehouse, or hid it on his body, or for some other reason.
“As a result, the leader of the Black Tiger Gang only discovered this letter recently and realized that Xiaozhi was the person who was wanted by the Thunder Token. It almost caused a huge disaster…
“Thunderbolt Token, Wind Lightning Pavilion..
“They are high and mighty. Why are they looking for Xiaozhi?
“They didn’t come straight home, which means that they don’t know Father’s exact identity.
“Then why can you lock onto Ding’an City?
“No, not just Ding’an City.
“If they could lock onto Ding’an City, with the size of the Wind Thunder
Pavilion that I can’t imagine, they would have the ability to search the entire Ding’an City. Why would they instruct the Black Tiger Gang to do anything?
“It’s very likely that the Thunder Token was sent to many cities similar to Ding’an City. There are so many of them that it’s impossible to search personally.
“Therefore, they can only rely on a gang like the Black Tiger Gang that abducts children.
“The Black Tiger Gang was lucky to meet me.
“Or rather, I was lucky to encounter the Black Tiger Gang at this moment…”
Lin Yan felt a lingering fear. If he hadn’t kept Xiaozhi in Dragon Gate Pavilion, if the Thunder Token had been leaked, if his blood energy had transformed a little later…
Any mistake would cause irreversible consequences.
Fortunately, he was lucky in the end.
He bent down and picked up the Thunder Token. Instead of calling it a token, it was more like a piece of paper with words written on it.
Lin Yan rubbed the material. The rice paper was embossed with golden patterns and was snow-white and smooth like skin.
The words did not seem to be written, but they were copied. They were so exquisite that they did not seem to be produced in this era.
On the back, in the corner at the bottom right, there were the words “South Mountain Mansion in Chengyang District, 15th every month”.
“This might be the Wind Lightning Pavilion’s contact place and time, right?” “Qianyuan Prefecture might be more advanced than Ding’an City.
“But why can’t ordinary people return after going to Qianyuan Prefecture?
“How did the people from the Wind Lightning Pavilion return?
“Also, how did the group of bodyguards who sent Xiaozhi here come in?
“Or are they really bodyguards?
“I’ve indeed never seen outsiders in Ding’an City… “Dad, Dad, you’ve really given me a huge problem.
‘What have you been through?’
Lin Yan felt as if there was a string in his heart that tightened again.
He really could not imagine the power of the Wind Lightning Pavilion. It was as if a fish bone was stuck in his throat, like an invisible blade hanging above his head.
“This world is completely different from my previous life.
“The leader of the Black Tiger Gang was ruthless and had brilliant methods. He worked hard to manage his business. He’s definitely a top-notch ambitious person.
“However, I barged in and killed him.
“Therefore, everything else is empty. Only with great strength can one break through all shackles. ‘
On a rainy night, Lin Yan couldn’t find any fire oil or strong wine. He couldn’t light it at all.
Helpless, he only briefly covered up some of his traces. He couldn’t care less about destroying the evidence. He found a clean and tidy shirt to wear.
He thought for a moment and picked up the corpse of the leader of the Black Tiger Gang.
Tonight’s matter was not over yet.
The Du family.
To be honest, Lin Yan was a little grateful to the Du family now.
If they had not caused such a ruckus, he would not have sent Xiaozhi to Dragon Gate Pavilion.
He wouldn’t be angry and charge into the Black Tiger Gang to destroy it.
Therefore, in order to repay this kindness, he should give it his all to deal with them..
