Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 143 Golden Muscle Technique

Upon hearing Han Yi's question, a flicker of fear crossed Jiang Xiu's eyes. She said hesitantly, "This, sir, our sect strictly forbids revealing this to outsiders..."

puff!

Han Yi stabbed Wang Fei's corpse through with a single stroke and coldly asked, "Speak, or not?"

Jiang Xiu shuddered. She gritted her teeth and hurriedly said, "Making 'talisman water' involves... Ah!!!"

Suddenly, she screamed in agony and rolled on the ground in pain.

what happened? ?

With a swift chop, Han Yi knocked Jiang Xiu unconscious. Even so, Jiang Xiu's body continued to tremble violently, her body temperature rising rapidly before quickly cooling down.

"this?"

Han Yi's expression changed slightly. He touched her nose and realized that Jiang Xiu had died in just a few minutes.

"what!!!!"

At this moment, Feng Yingying, who had been thrown into the room, also let out a scream.

boom!

Without hesitation, Han Yi smashed the wooden door to pieces and rushed inside.

Feng Yingying behaved exactly like Jiang Xiu. Helpless, Han Yi had no choice but to knock her unconscious first, but then she also lost vital signs.

"How is this going?"

Han Yi had many unanswered questions in his mind, but he vaguely sensed that the question he had just asked about the making of "talisman water" seemed to have touched on the core of the problem.

rustling~

"what sound?"

Han Yi looked up at the sound and saw a fleshy worm, about ten centimeters long, blood red in color, and resembling a cabbage worm, crawling out from Feng Yingying's chest.

rustling~

He looked back and saw that a strange worm had also crawled out of Jiang Xiu's chest!

"this!!!"

Han Yi was shocked. He seemed to understand something, but this was not the time to think. He suspected that his actions had been noticed.

Han Yi quickly snapped back to reality. With his thoughts racing, he suppressed his nauseous urges and gently touched the flesh worm with his finger.

[Found to absorb yin energy, should it be absorbed?] [Yes]

Name: Han Yi (16/120)

[Elemental Power Value]: 66

Really useful!

Han Yi was secretly delighted. He had encountered a similar situation when dealing with the pack of wild dogs last time. The Gu worm he encountered then was called "Sawtooth Golden Centipede," and it was indeed still able to absorb it!

Then, Han Yi did the same thing, absorbing the other one as well. The two Gu worms were as if they had been drained dry, their bodies thin and shriveled, without a trace of plumpness.

Name: Han Yi (16/121)

[Elemental Power Value]: 76

Good haul!

Han Yi clapped his hands in satisfaction. This was an unexpected surprise. He had originally planned to take on some missions from the Extraordinary Affairs Office, but this saved him a lot of trouble.

"Since Jiang Xiu and Feng Yingying both have this substance in their bodies, what about the three of them...?"

Han Yi glanced at the three corpses in the yard, and without hesitation, he quickly went to the yard and made a cut at the heart of one of the corpses.

"I guessed right..."

Han Yi also found the same Gu worms in the chests of the three corpses, but the Gu worms in their bodies had long since lost their life and were no longer active.

"It seems that the 'Cult of the Valley God' really is related to that strange disease; in fact, it could be said that the 'Cult of the Valley God' may be the source of the strange disease!"

Han Yi made a definitive conclusion.

"However, this place is dangerous; it's time to retreat!"

Considering that what happened here might have already been discovered, and that the "Valley God Cult" also had martial arts masters who could open meridians, Han Yi immediately made a decision. He then rushed into the house, rummaged around for a while, and looted some things that looked valuable, packing them into a large package.

"This is?"

Taking the opportunity, Han Yi also managed to steal a yellowed book from Zhu Tong.

The book had no cover, the paper was yellowed, the edges were badly worn, and it looked like it had been picked out of a garbage dump.

But since Zhu Tong carefully placed it in his bosom, it must be something of value.

He didn't have time to think much about it or examine it closely, so he casually tossed the booklet into his package.

Time was of the essence, so Han Yi quickly gathered the corpses together, grabbed some swords and clubs, and hacked away at the fatal wounds he had inflicted with his fists, leaving various other wounds on their bodies. This would make it difficult to determine the cause of death and prevent anyone from identifying the attacker's characteristics from the injuries.

Finally, Han Yi placed some flammable strips of cloth and silk around the room, poured out the kerosene, and a huge fire broke out.

He then turned and left, disappearing around the street corner.

"It's gone!!!"

"Fire! Fire! Help!"

The fire grew larger and larger, black smoke obscured the sky, and red light replaced the sun. The surrounding temperature became increasingly unbearable, making it feel as hot as being close to a volcano.

Han Yi started the fire inside the house, adding many flammable materials. With the ignition of kerosene, the fire caused by the wooden structure grew larger and larger, and it was impossible to extinguish it in a short time.

"Old Ma, what's going on?"

"I just received the news from my disciple; they say the stronghold has been attacked!" "But isn't Master Zhu Tong guarding this place? How could this happen!"

"Who knows? Maybe he's away on business? Never mind, let's put out the fire first!"

"Put out the fire? What fire are you trying to put out? Even if this fire is extinguished, all the goods we bought will have been burned to a crisp by now!"

"Then, what do you suggest we do?"

"Run! Before the sect leader finds out what's going on here, we'll be skinned alive, if not dead!"

"good…...."

The two disciples of the "Grain God Sect" scattered and fled in disgrace, unaware that they had no way to escape!

"call!"

"Finally home!"

Han Yi slowly removed the straw hat from his head, along with his black clothes and coat. He had been careful and hurried all the way, managing to return to the Bai family courtyard without attracting anyone's attention.

Crash!

Han Yi unfolded the package he had been holding under his arm, and dumped all the contents onto the bed.

The time was short, and he only searched the room where Zhu Tong was, but as the leader of the incense shop, Zhu Tong's most valuable possessions should be on him.

Han Yi inspected the items and found some gold and silver valuables, several money pouches, a small green porcelain bottle, a beautifully sealed book hidden under the pillow, and a well-turned-on booklet in Zhu Tong's arms.

Of all these, Han Yi valued this beautifully packaged book the most. Hidden in the most important place and with such exquisite packaging, it must be a top-notch martial arts manual.

Hiss!

Han Yi patiently unwrapped the packaging little by little, and eagerly pulled a book out of the cloth bag.

"Yu Lou Chun?"

Three large red characters were printed on the yellow cover, and Han Yi felt a sense of foreboding.

"Dry!"

He cursed under his breath, and after casually flipping through a few pages, he saw all sorts of colorful and obscene pictures.

This is actually an erotic picture book!

"Tsk tsk...this guy..." Han Yi shook his head. This Zhu Tong is like a toad marrying a frog. He's ugly and promiscuous. He has so many women but he's still not satisfied. He even hides this kind of thing in his bed.

He threw the erotic picture book into the trash heap, intending to throw it away later.

Then, Han Yi picked up the small porcelain bottle, slightly pulled out the stopper, and a pungent smell wafted out, entering his nostrils. Inside the bottle was a pill that was entirely crimson. "This pill doesn't look like an ordinary medicine. I'll have Bai Sanren appraise it later."

The "Blood Tablet Rejuvenation Pill" that Elder Li gave him before was also appraised by Bai Sanren, but Han Yi did not dare to take it. Instead, he went to the "Dan Ding Pavilion" to recycle it and exchanged it for some other cultivation pills.

The pills in this small porcelain bottle don't look quite right; they need to be examined.

Han Yi placed the porcelain bottle aside and categorized it as something to be sorted out.

Then he picked up the tattered booklet and examined it carefully.

"Golden Muscle Technique?"

Although the booklet doesn't look appealing, it contains genuinely valuable information.

There are some training diagrams on it that embody both form and spirit.

The illustrations are on top, the explanations below, one picture per sentence, making the explanation clear. As for why the exterior looks so unattractive, it's probably because Zhu Tong looks at it frequently, or perhaps it's a deliberate disguise.

This is a martial arts manual called "Golden Muscle Technique". Practicing it can make muscles firmer, increase strength, and greatly enhance explosive power.

This "Golden Muscle Technique" tempers the muscles of the entire body. According to the description above, when cultivated to a high level, one can become as strong as a barbarian elephant, charging around wildly, and even possess the strength of an elephant!

"No wonder I felt Zhu Tong's strength was unexpectedly powerful when we fought earlier..."

Just now, when Han Yi and Zhu Tong's fists clashed, he felt that Zhu Tong was like a wild bull, with a powerful force surging out from his body. This was probably the effect of the "Golden Muscle Technique".

Han Yi carefully read the booklet again, flipping through the details, but unfortunately found that the technique recorded in the booklet was incomplete and quite incomplete.

This booklet mainly contains cultivation techniques, with a few additional sections containing prescriptions that must be prepared when breaking through key realms.

"That's true. How could someone as shrewd as Zhu Tong put all his eggs in one basket? He certainly wouldn't carry the entire manual with him. He probably kept this booklet with the key points in his pocket so he could flip through it from time to time."

Han Yi raised an eyebrow. He could understand the actions of such a clever person. If it were him, he would probably do the same.

Such techniques, if they don't have visualization diagrams, are fine, but if they lack the refinement of key medicinal ingredients, they are basically useless martial arts.

"But if I were to cultivate..."

Just as Han Yi was about to put the booklet away, a thought suddenly occurred to him.
