Chapter 100 – Ten Thousand Poisons Quenching the Body

Originally, there might have been some people muttering in their hearts, but seeing this scene of moving stars, no one questioned anything anymore.

Outsiders didn’t know, but the senior figures of the Star Moon Sect naturally knew what the origins of their own sect were, and did this pair of visions represent that the hope of rising was in this man?

The so-called three kowtows and nine obeisances to the Patriarch was obviously just a joke; in fact, after the vision of the shifting stars, Xue Mu didn’t even need to pay obeisance to the portrait, and instead, all of the people paid homage to him, “Greetings to the Grand Master!”

This might also be a Qiankun reversal in another sense?

“I should have thought of it ……”

After dispersing the ceremony, the siblings strolled side by side by the lotus pond in the backyard. Xue Qingqiu leaned against the railing, her beautiful eyes looking mistily at the pavilion lotus leaves, and said quietly, “The Foolish Lord moved the mountain, aren’t you here to help the Foolish Lord …… In fact …… the change of the Lone Tong Yuan, I survived, and perhaps I have already begun to move the stars and the sky ?”

“Yes.” Xue Mu faintly said, “Ji Qingyuan after this battle, the influence on us is weaker and weaker, we use the momentum to rise, is already a powerful force that can not be ignored. But Lord Sister, I’m cautious about the so-called Qiankun subversion, you’d better not start dreaming of being an empress.”

Xue Qingqiu lost her voice and laughed out, “That’s how you see me, huh?”

Xue Mu skimmed his lips, “Seeing your majestic appearance of sitting high on the throne, there are so many points. Power often leads to corruption, who knows ……”

Xue Qingqiu flicked him on the head, “I’ve given you most of my power, so don’t be corrupt.”

Xue Mu forgot the pain after he got well, and went to reach out and hug her again, “I want to be corrupt, but I also have to attack you first ah ……”

Xue Qingqiu looked at him with contempt.

Xue Mu’s cheeks rolled and he put down his hand period.

It is really very embarrassing ah …… can see and eat not, now is even a sentence “sister when to teach me double cultivation” do not dare to ask, people winks a throw, answered a sentence “now”, sad run I’m not going to be able to do that, but I’m going to be able to do it myself.

What’s the difference between this and an eunuch ……?

“In this world, no matter how many different strategies you have, strength is still the foundation of everything.” Xue Qingqiu looked at him very seriously, “In any case, now temporarily clean, what city lord duties a thousand and one various layouts, you should temporarily put aside, at least three hours of daily practice.”

“Uh-huh.” Xue Mu sincerely said, “Keep teaching me to practice.”

Xue Qingqiu’s expression became more and more serious: “You are already under my Star Moon Sect, I’m teaching you on behalf of my master, and I’ll treat you with the harshest attitude, are you psychologically prepared for that? I don’t want you to harbor resentment towards me.”

These words sounded a little scary, and visually it would be a devilish training that would be hard to bear. But at this point, one would have to say they were prepared even if they weren’t. Xue Mu nodded with strong support, “Got it.”

“Then you come with me.” With those words, Xue Qingqiu lifted Xue Mu and disappeared with a swoosh, and when she reappeared, she had already arrived in a gloomy room.

In the center of the room was a bath bucket, which was already full of water, and the weird thing was that the water was gray, with a bit of stickiness, like an extremely thin cement paste. Before Xue Mu could ask, Xue Qingqiu ripped off his coat and casually flung him into the bucket.

The moment he entered the water, Xue Mu felt that he had jumped into the magma, the extreme burning heat drilled into his limbs from his skin, and it felt like his entire body was going to burn. At the same time there were indescribable ten thousand ants biting and itching on the skin, and soon the numbness and itchiness penetrated deeper into the muscles from the skin, and then soaked into the bone marrow.

The extreme pain made Xue Mu unable to resist screaming out, subconsciously jumping upwards, just to leave the bath tub.

“Splat!” A whip came over and jerked him back alive, Xue Qingqiu even chilled, “Even more untouched than I thought!”

How is it all with a whip! Where did this whip come from!

But Xue Mu already didn’t have the heart to think about that, he was already in so much pain that his words were slurred, “What kind of water is this …… ……”

“The poisonous body quenching water recorded in the Hundred Herb Poison Scripture, made using one hundred types of strange poisons. So what do you think I’ve been doing for the past two days?”

Xue Mu almost wanted to go home and tear up that shitty book.

Xue Qingqiu added, “It’s also formulated with my Star Moon Sect’s unique medicinal bath, which can help you nourish your body to recover when the hundred poisons quenching your body has caused some damage. If it was only one effect, it might be a bit more bearable, two together is indeed a bit hard to bear, but you can only do so much, bear it.”

Just from listening to such a long paragraph, Xue Mu was about to collapse from holding it in. Without having tried the sensation of burning flames combined with the bites of ten thousand ants, one would never know what kind of extreme pain this was.

Xue Qingqiu’s face was expressionless: ”The body quenching technique in the Hundred Herb Poison Scripture, do you still remember it? Luck guards the heart and draws the poison to quench the body, start.”

“…… “Xue Mu closed his eyes and began to recall the body quenching technique in the Poison Scripture.

The Ten Thousand Poisons Quenching Body was also the opposite path from regular people. A normal person is making their muscles and bones stronger and tougher, which in modern terms is scientific fitness, only the intensity is many times higher, and the energy formed from medicinal baths or heavenly treasures fills the body, removing impurities and refining the muscles and bones, which is completely different from the filling of “proteins” and “calcium”. The filling of “protein” and “calcium” is not the same as the filling of “protein” and “calcium”.

The use of poison to quench the body, first of all, first destroy the normal body nutrients, instead of using toxins as energy filler. In the end, it can also form an effect similar to that of a normal hardened body, but the process is ten thousand times more painful.

After practicing, the strength is not as strong as normal body hardening, but it has more characteristics that normal people do not have. For example, someone clawed through your shoulder, you just a traumatic injury, he was poisoned first.

To put it bluntly, it was still offensive and defensive, and very much at odds with Xue Mu’s nature. But having come this far, there was nothing that could be done.

Body forging is divided into seven layers, from practicing skin, muscle, blood, tendon, bone forging, five viscera, and marrow, and after practicing it, it’s the transformation of the whole person. Maybe some protagonist brothers can be born with more hair than normal people or something, and blind spots that the entire world hasn’t discovered in tens of thousands of years can be discovered by the protagonist brother, but Xue Mu really isn’t interested in being this kind of protagonist at all.

Just practicing a skin nowadays, he felt like he was dying.

He trembled and clenched his teeth, unable to endure countless times, wanting to climb out countless times, and ultimately ushered in an unrelenting whip that jerked him back raw.

Xue Mu really couldn’t help but feel a bit of anger in his eyes when he looked at Xue Qingqiu, if she hadn’t warned him beforehand, this could really be considered abuse. However, thinking that she had spoken first, Xue Mu couldn’t get angry, and just turned his head away from her cold and merciless eyes.

Xue Qingqiu saw him avoiding himself, knowing that it was a normal reaction, her heart couldn’t help but feel some throbbing sensation, gently biting her lower lip, whispering, “If you can’t stand it, then this life is just a trick, are you willing to do it?”

Xue Mu’s voice trembled, “Is this how you came to be?”

Xue Qingqiu shook her head, “A normal person’s quenching is not this painful. But my pain is no lighter than yours.”

Xue Mu was stunned and in turn diverted his attention for a few moments, “How?”

“Meng Lan or Zhu Chen Yao, they also experienced Body Forging Perfection, followed by Qi Practicing Perfection, reaching Inner and Outer Blending.” Xue Qingqiu said indifferently, “But their so-called perfect bodies, is it the same strength as mine?”

These two examples were well cited, and Xue Mu was really diverted this time, “Then exactly ……”

“For example, if you throw a punch with all your strength, it’s a full strength. But after you learn the method of transporting energy, you’ll realize that the original so-called full strength is simply using less than one ten-thousandth of your own strength. The same is true for forging the body and practicing qi, you have already reached theoretical perfection, but as you ask for a long time, you will realize that the original quenching is only one hair of a nine ox.”

“I see…”……” Xue Mu mused, “The so-called consummation that regular people call it is merely laying a good foundation. In reality, no matter whether it’s forging the body or practicing qi, it’s a never-ending process, and there’s never a true consummation …… Even Harmonization may not be the end of the road.”

“Not bad.” Xue Qingqiu was satisfied with his enlightenment and continued, “The deeper you practice, the more pain you have experienced. The skin can block swords, that’s because it has already tasted pain that is worse than the cuts of ten thousand swords. Xue Mu ……”

“Uh……”

“The sword of refined steel can’t even pierce my skin, how can you double-cultivate?”

“…… “Xue Mu wanted to ask to what extent he had to practice before he could do that with her, but at the moment the pain was so excruciating that he really wasn’t in the mood to ask such words.

That is to say, just started practicing a skin are dying, to that degree is afraid not to be nine hundred and eighty-one difficult?

So, want to ride the world’s strongest horse? First ready to put the thighs to practice calluses it …… again pain must also suffer first.
