The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 761 - 758: The Cultivation Technique That Kills
Ghost Energy...
How could a cultivation technique have ghost energy?
Xin Lin was slightly startled.
Due to her contact with Gui Hu and possessing the Fu Tian Pill, she could see the ghost energy invisible to others.
Generally speaking, ghost energy would only appear in two situations.
One, contaminated by ghostly entities or obtained by tomb raiding, most belong to this category.
The other is...
"This cultivation technique has killed quite a few people."
Jiang Qing said with a bitter smile.
Jiang Qing had just given Xin Lin the answer.
If it had killed people, the resentment from the dead could generate ghost energy lingering around.
Clearly, the Cutting Vein Finger belonged to the second category.
This Xuan-grade middle-level cultivation technique, a Seventh-rank Technique, was rare even among Longteng martial artists, even those in the Xuan Transformation Realm.
The fearsomeness of the Cutting Vein Finger lies in its ability to lock the True Qi within the Heart Meridian, which is the main meridian among a martial artist’s Five Meridians.
True Qi gathers and can instantly unleash tremendous combat power.
"Even for Xuanwu Practitioners, once the True Qi is trapped in the meridians, it can unleash nearly ten times the True Qi in an instant, reaching the cultivation of the Xuan Transformation Realm. In some cases, it can save lives. But the biggest drawback of this technique is that, with each burst, it damages the Heart Meridian. Once the Heart Meridian is damaged, one’s life expectancy is shortened. Some who are eager for quick success and obtain the technique, perish within three days."
Thus, even though the Cutting Vein Finger is powerful, it is also like a ghost talisman prompting many Xuanwu Practitioners to stay away.
Its value has plummeted and to this day, it remains in the Black Brilliance Market.
"The reason I recommended it to you is one, because you have this need, and on the other hand, because... you are without the Five Meridians."
Jiang Qing coughed lightly.
Without the Heart Meridian, naturally, there will be no damage to it.
However, similarly, Jiang Qing wasn’t sure how effective the Cutting Vein Finger would be when Xin Lin learned it.
"As long as you reach the Xuan Transformation Realm, you can handle Chen You and his Martial Soul with ease."
Jiang Qing said.
Last time, Master Mo sent to the Alchemy Hall a batch of Spiritual Spring, just enough to purchase this Cutting Vein Finger.
Xin Lin gave a wry smile.
So, not having the Five Meridians turned out to be her advantage?
"Thank you, Brother Jiang. I’ll accept it and hope I can refine it."
Xin Lin was indeed very grateful to Jiang Qing.
"Also, Brother Jiang, about the Golden Crow..."
Xin Lin hesitated, thinking about the state of the Overlord Egg.
"Xin, I’m sorry, I haven’t found any news about the Golden Crow Egg Shell."
Jiang Qing also felt regret.
"Brother Jiang, I’m not looking for news about the Golden Crow Egg Shell, but rather, I want to know about the Golden Crow, like what does it counteract or promote?"
After the Overlord Egg hazily swallowed the Golden Crow Egg Shell, the Fire Spirit burst forth, and Xin Lin’s use of the Five Elements Qi Gathering Method was barely making a difference; she was worried the Overlord Egg might not make it.
Although initially disliking the Overlord Egg, she had grown accustomed to its presence over time.
"The nemesis of the Golden Crow is the Ice Horned Dragon, any item related to the Ice Horned Dragon can alleviate the intense fire blaze of the Golden Crow. Legend has it that during the ancient times, when the heavens and earth were in chaos, there were ten suns in the sky, and the savior hero used the claws of the Ice Horned Dragon to forge the Nine Arrows, shooting down nine suns. Those nine suns, when they fell, transformed into Nine-headed Golden Crows. Of course, this is all just legend. The Golden Crow Egg Shell is so hard to find, not to mention the Golden Crow itself."
Jiang Qing casually said.
