After Tang Xuejian returned home, her little heart kept thumping wildly. She hugged her little panda toy tightly, looking at it every now and then, then burying her face in the panda's fur.
"Oh, I'm so embarrassed..."
Clatter!
The lid of a fine purple clay teapot on the table was accidentally knocked to the ground.
Xuejian was startled at first, then the corners of her mouth curved into a smile. "This is Grandpa's favorite purple clay teapot. I have to fix it for him. I heard that the jerk at Yongan Pawnshop has this skill. Hmm! I'll go to Yongan Pawnshop tonight. Yes, definitely not to see Young Master Hu..."
The highest level of a woman: deceiving herself.
She picked up the broken pieces on the ground and tiptoed out of Tangjiabao.
Tang Kun chuckled bitterly and coughed a few times, his lips frighteningly dry and pale. "Girls can't be kept forever. Young Master Hu's words are also true. Although Xuejian is destined to have a soulmate."
Swain didn't care much about Yongan Pawnshop's business. He didn't lack money and wasn't interested in it anyway.
He directly handed the management over to Uncle Ding, an old-timer at Yongan Pawnshop who was also reliable.
And Swain, calming down, began to examine the newly acquired divine skill, Wine God's Curse.
It had to be said that Situ was a genius to have come up with such a thing.
Swain had always valued the development of his physical body, and he paid even more attention to it after opening the Thousand Eye View.
Now, the Thousand Eye View only served as a charger and vending machine.
Anything he wanted could be created and used through the rules of the ninja world.
Of course, there were also many limitations. It was unrealistic to just create something like the Taiji Diagram or the Immortal Slaying Sword.
Even if he squeezed himself dry, he wouldn't succeed.
There was still a lot of room for development in the Eight Gates forbidden technique. The Eight Gates were simply about unlocking the suppression of the meridians, multiplying one's attack power, and leaving some damage to the body, while also enhancing some physical qualities.
The torn muscles would become stronger after recovery, which was common knowledge.
Wine God's Curse, on the other hand, fluctuated the meridians, interfering from the outside. Although it was strong, it was limited by the number of times it could be used.
Not only would it not enhance the physique, but it would also lower the damage threshold.
So, was it possible to activate Wine God's Curse without cutting off the meridians?
This reminded Swain of Orochimaru's soft body modifications.
Of course, he wouldn't make himself look like neither human nor ghost, but if the internal meridians could achieve that, then it might not be impossible.
A figure flashed past the window. Swain glanced at it; it was Xuejian. She was holding a teapot lid?
Oh, she's here to find Jingtian.
Thinking of this, he immersed himself in the experiment of meridian modification again.
Ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
"Um, Young Master Hu, are you there?"
Xuejian's voice came from outside the door. What was she doing here?
"Yes, I'm here. Are you Miss Xuejian? What's wrong so late? What's the matter?"
Swain didn't even get up to open the door. Four crows flew out and opened it.
"Whoa! What happened to you, Xuejian? You smell so bad!"
"Ah!" Xuejian cried out in embarrassment and anger, covered her face and ran away.
Swain frowned. "That was really weird."
...
Tang Xuejian hated Jingtian. He clearly had mud but still tricked her into going to that filthy place. She, she actually made Young Master Hu dislike her. Damn Jingtian, I'm going to kill you!
"Miss Tang, what are you thinking about? Ew! You smell really bad. Hurry home and wash up. Here, it's done."
Jingtian chuckled wickedly. This silly girl believed everything he said. Finally, he got his revenge! Haha!
"I'm going to kill you! Bastard! Scoundrel! May you not have a son, or, or have... that part!"
Xuejian snatched the teapot lid and walked towards Tangjiabao.
Jingtian shrugged on the spot. "Tsk! No good deed goes unpunished. I helped you, and you still scold me."
Today is Start of Spring.
Xuejian's hair will keep growing, so marrying Xuejian has one benefit: you won't go bald when you're old. You'll still have dark and beautiful hair, and if you run out of money, you can wait for Lichun and sell some hair...
But the first thing Xuejian did when she got home wasn't to cut her hair, but to have the maid prepare water, add flower petals, and spray perfume. She washed three times in a row, making the whole room smell so strong that people choked before she was willing to stop.
"Miss... what's wrong with you?"
Xuejian wasn't doing anything, but she exhausted the maid. She finally had a moment to rest, and now she had to cut Xuejian's hair.
"It's nothing. Do you think Young Master Hu will like... this outfit?"
"Oh, Miss, who in our family doesn't envy your pretty face? With your beauty, you look good in anything."
"Really... then Young Master Hu should like it too, right?"
The next day
Tang Kun's condition worsened, and the doctor sighed repeatedly.
Xuejian was extremely anxious, grabbing the doctor's hand and not letting him leave. "Doctor, how is my grandpa?"
"Alas, Lord Tang has had diabetes for many years, and there is nothing I can do."
"Doctor, please, you must save my grandpa. I can give you as much money as you want."
Xuejian had no parents. She was raised by her grandpa since she was little, and her grandpa spoiled her especially. Facing the departure of her only remaining relative, Xuejian naturally couldn't accept it.
The doctor sighed. "Alas, there is actually a folk remedy that can alleviate the symptoms of Lord Tang."
Hearing this, Xuejian immediately asked, "What is it?! Millennium ginseng or snow lotus from Tianshan? I can get it for you."
That doctor was really kind. Diabetes, in modern terms, is diabetes. It refers to the condition where diabetic patients have excessive blood sugar, causing a large amount of glucose to be discharged from the urine, resulting in insufficient liquid volume in the body, leading to patients drinking water and going to the toilet constantly. But in the Northern Song Dynasty, there were no effective drugs to treat it, except for immortal magic.
Saying there was a folk remedy was just to put Xuejian at ease.
"Neither of those. It is said that the dew from a hundred flowers at the foot of Mount Shu has amazing effects. Miss can go and collect some."
That's what it means to have a benevolent heart as a doctor.
Xuejian, a young girl, naturally believed it.
That night, she wore a red dress and went to the foot of Mount Shu to collect flower dew.
Swain's Ravenous Flock had not been withdrawn after the battle with Li Xiaoyao, but instead spread to every corner of Yuzhou City.
He remembered that the Poison People seemed to appear in these few days, and Mount Shu was about to appear as well. He could sneak in to learn some techniques and operate some excavators.
Yuzhou City at night was smoky and filled with poisonous gas.
Even Swain's crows felt a little uncomfortable. Animals were much more sensitive than humans in this regard.
"Minato, how is the world merging process going?"
Namikaze Minato's embarrassed laughter came from a thousand miles away. "It hasn't started yet, possibly because of you, Lord Swain..."
Minato didn't need to say more. Swain understood that he was too weak.
He couldn't help but curse himself, "Damn it, why is Chonglou so awesome when we're both crows?!"
"Fellow Daoist, why are you so melancholy? That Demon Lord Chonglou is the number one warrior in the Six Realms. Isn't it just putting yourself down to compare with him?"
The voice was old, gentle, and comfortable to listen to.
Swain subconsciously replied, "What you said is right... No! Who the hell are you?"
This person appeared out of nowhere. If he had given me a knife just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable. He knew that this was the world of Chinese Paladin, and its battle power was much higher than that of the ninja world.
Swain turned around and saw an old man sitting on the table, holding a crystal box in his hand.
Qing Wei Daoist?
Qing Wei smiled. "It seems that Fellow Daoist has recognized me."
"I don't have the ability to capture the Evil Sword Immortal yet. You should go find Jingtian."
Qing Wei shook his head with a smile. "Why does Fellow Daoist belittle himself? The Phoenix bloodline is not necessarily weaker than a Divine General."
He revealed Swain's trump card in one sentence, making Swain feel the terror of the old Qing Wei.
The Sect Leader of Mount Shu, who expelled his own evil thoughts with the Supreme Purification Dharma and increased his power a thousandfold, was indeed not to be underestimated.
"What, you want me to practice your Supreme Purification Dharma too? Forget it. Maybe my evil thoughts would even kill Chonglou."
Swain's words were not alarmist. After a brief perception, Swain discovered that the difference between his strength and that of the old Qing Wei was small, but not insignificant.
If he amplified his power a thousandfold and created evil thoughts, and let them grow for a few more days, Chonglou might really fall.
"Fellow Daoist is joking. The gate of my Mount Shu is willing to open for you. We only ask that you can contribute to the human race in three hundred days.
I see that you use a gun. Although my Mount Shu doesn't have gun techniques, we can draw from some sword techniques to improve yourself.
The sword is originally ordinary iron, but it becomes spiritual because of being held. It moves with the heart, lives with the blood, and dies with no thoughts. The art of controlling the sword lies in regulating breath, holding the primordial unity, circulating back and forth, and endlessly reproducing."
A small formula opened up a new door for Swain.
The battle of ninjas lies in the change of power and Chakra nature.
Compared to Mount Shu and any other sect, the fighting style seems very crude.
This is also Swain's shortcoming. Perhaps Swain has many means.
Flying Thunder God, the Eight Gates, the Sage Body, Susanoo, etc. But if he is facing an opponent of the same level, relying only on fighting instinct and experience, he will definitely lose out.
Take the gun, for example. A month for the staff, a year for the saber, and a lifetime for the gun. In the Hokage world, with overwhelming power, he can just stab Madara or Kaguya Hime.
There are no skills involved.
Is the speed of Flying Thunder God fast? It's too fast, instant movement, but Li Xiaoyao can block your sword and kill you in return. What does this represent?
It represents Swain's lack of skill. While his power was growing, Swain had subconsciously abandoned the so-called skill.
One strength can overcome ten skills, but he is not like those natural gods or demons who have methods for cultivating the physical body. Furthermore, cultivators at Li Xiaoyao's level, how much stronger would their physical bodies have to be to withstand a direct clash?
"I think Fellow Daoist already understands. My Mount Shu is always open, welcoming your presence."
After speaking, Qing Wei even made a 'yeah' gesture like he was teasing Jingtian.
Since he has come to a new world, he must grow. Minato's words did stimulate Swain. But on second thought, this is the Six Realms. He must at least reach the level of Chonglou and Jingtian to merge the world, right? No... there is also the Heavenly Emperor. He is the master of the Six Realms. If he knows that he is going to take away the entire Six Realms, wouldn't he gather his troops and fight to the death?
The task is heavy and the road is long...
Qing Wei was gone, he didn't know when he left. Outside came a terrifying roar of Poison People.
Swain, who was already annoyed, felt even more annoyed when he heard it. "This is really annoying! I really want to throw a Tail Beast Ball to blow them up."
Namikaze Minato's voice sounded again, "Lord Swain, this world still rejects us somewhat. If you use a large-scale Ninjutsu, it would be good if you were just rejected, but if it's bad, you would probably be suppressed and killed on the spot."
In this way, his limited fighting power was suppressed even further.
So, large-scale Ninjutsu probably can't be used for the time being.
Of the remaining powerful ones, there is one Eight Gates, and one Wine God's Curse that he just learned.
Swain vowed that after merging part of the world, he would definitely drive Susanoo and slash enough.
