The First Sword of the Universe

Chapter 477 Deception?!
Xu Xingchen had no confidence whatsoever in curing Wu Yazi.

But he wanted to try.

Even if it doesn't work out, so what?

Wu Yazi ultimately wanted to die, and ultimately he was going to die; for him, defeat meant he lost nothing.

But what if it works?!

What if there's even the slightest chance of survival?!

Since the Eight Desolations and Six Directions Supreme Technique cultivated by the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny can achieve such an incredible thing as "rejuvenation",

Is there even a slight possibility that Wu Yazi's body could be reconstructed, his bones and muscles reshaped, and his meridians reconnected?

At the very least, if Wu Yazi were alive, he might have been able to obtain the internal cultivation method of the Eight Desolations and Six Directions Supreme Technique from Tianshan Tonglao.
In the world of Tianlong, if you were to ask Xu Xingchen which martial art he was most interested in, it would be the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Supreme Skill, which can make people rejuvenate.

Among the remaining many divine skills.

The Northern Darkness Divine Skill, the Lesser Formless Skill, the Star-Shifting Divine Skill, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, the Six Meridian Divine Sword, and even the Shaolin Temple's ultimate martial art, the Yi Jin Jing (Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic)
The ranking of these martial arts skills should all be moved back!

in the cave.

"My injuries are too severe to be cured, so Master Xu need not trouble you!"

Wu Yazi rejected Xu Xingchen's suggestion. He did not believe that he could cure his critically injured condition, which was on the verge of death, by practicing the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Supreme Technique.

His will to survive had long since been worn away over the decades.

Now, he only wants to infuse his inner strength into Duan Yu, the disciple he has just recognized, and to place his desire for revenge on Duan Yu.

Wu Yazi had no idea that his idea would definitely work.

Duan Yu once ate the Manggu Toad, the most poisonous creature in the world, and his body became immune to all poisons. He was the nemesis of Ding Chunqiu, the Starry Night Old Monster who was skilled in using poison.

With the poison ineffective, Ding Chunqiu lost his greatest reliance and could only rely on martial arts to fight Duan Yu.

Duan Yu, who received Wu Yazi's lifelong skills, possessed an unparalleled and unmatched level of internal strength.

The Six Meridians Divine Sword would be as easy to wield as an extension of his arm, allowing him to do as he pleased.

At that time, what will Ding Chunqiu use to fight Duan Yu?

As long as Duan Yu doesn't soften his heart or go easy on Ding Chunqiu, Ding Chunqiu's defeat is inevitable.

Looking at Wu Yazi's face as he faced death with equanimity, Xu Xingchen suddenly said, "I have a sacred treatise on healing. I wonder if Senior Wu Yazi would be willing to listen to it?"

"It seems you're still not giving up." Wu Yazi shook his head slightly. Xu Xingchen's stubbornness was beyond his comprehension. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "We've only just met today. I'd like to know why you want me to live so much? Why you want to heal my injuries so much?"

Xu Xingchen's eyes gleamed as he looked Wu Yazi up and down, and said frankly, "Because your injuries are very representative, I want to completely heal you and then develop a divine skill that can bring people back to life."

Amidst the astonished gazes of Wu Yazi and Duan Yu, Xu Xingchen nodded earnestly once more: "Yes, this is my reason, and also my true thought."

Wu Yazi saw in Xu Xingchen's eyes the same fervor he once had for studying all sorts of miscellaneous subjects.
So he believed Xu Xingchen's words, but couldn't help shivering.

His previous studies of miscellaneous knowledge were all "dead things".

Now, however, he himself has become the object of study, and he can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

"In that case, I shall listen to Master Xu's sacred treatise on healing."

Xu Xingchen did not delay and explained the "Tendon Changing and Bone Strengthening Chapter" from the Nine Yin Manual.

Duan Yu had no concept of martial arts, but unconsciously memorized everything Xu Xingchen said.

As the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, Wu Yazi possessed unparalleled martial arts skills, and had also mastered the unique skills of various sects and schools throughout the world. He was knowledgeable, had a strong memory, and was wise and insightful.

At this moment, listening to Xu Xingchen recount the sacred treatise on healing, his eyes lit up.

Every word is full of mystery, and every sentence is profound.

Hearing it is thought-provoking, making one want to ponder it carefully, yet it seems mysterious and profound, leaving one with endless aftertaste.

Clearly, this is a secret and unique skill that is in no way inferior to the Northern Darkness Divine Art. It not only takes a different approach to increasing one's power, but also has the ability to heal injuries, transform one's tendons and marrow, and give one a complete makeover.

Compared to the healing techniques of the Free and Unfettered Sect and even other sects in the world, it far surpasses them and is incomparable.

Perhaps only the Yi Jin Jing of Shaolin Temple can compare with it!
Wu Yazi savored the experience for a long time, and then couldn't help but draw out a tiny bit of internal energy from the vortex of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, circulating it through the meridians and acupoints mentioned in the Yi Jin Duan Gu Chapter.

Afterwards, he clearly felt that the pain in his body seemed to have lessened considerably.

I couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

He drew upon some of his inner strength again to heal his injuries. After several cycles, the injuries lessened somewhat, but a sigh appeared on Wu Yazi's face.

He looked up at Xu Xingchen, who was waiting quietly, and said in a tone that seemed both sighing and helpless: "This healing manual is indeed miraculous and profound, in no way inferior to the Northern Darkness Divine Art."

If I had obtained this technique when I fell off the cliff, my health would have improved considerably over the years, even if it couldn't have fully recovered.

"Now, my injuries have been delayed for too long. The Healing Manual can only alleviate my pain, but it cannot heal my wounds."

Wu Yazi's tone was filled with complex emotions such as frustration, regret, annoyance, helplessness, composure, and calmness.

Xu Xingchen's eyes lit up as he listened, secretly praising the Nine Yin Manual, this supreme martial art, once again.

In Xu Xingchen's heart.
If it has an effect, it means it is effective.

If it is effective, it means there is hope.

The presence of hope means there is a good chance that Wu Yazi's serious injuries can be healed.

The ability to heal Wu Yazi's severe injuries means that he could create a divine martial art capable of bringing people back to life.

The connections between these things are somewhat fragile, and it is very likely that the research will be abandoned halfway through and could not be continued.

But since Xu Xingchen saw hope, he wanted to continue his research and not let any opportunity slip by.

Therefore, he advised, "Senior Wuyazi, since it is effective, why not give it a try?"

"With my understanding of the profound principles of martial arts and the mysteries of the human body, I might actually be able to forge a path."

Wu Yazi pondered deeply and came up with a difficult question: "I cannot appear in the martial world, and I cannot let that wicked disciple Ding Chunqiu know that I am still alive, otherwise, it will bring you immense disaster."

Xu Xingchen waved his hand and said confidently, "Senior, there's no need to worry. Brother Duan and I are both immune to all poisons, so Ding Chunqiu's poison can't harm us at all."

As for martial arts, it's not that I'm arrogant, but there are people in this world who can be my opponent, but Ding Chunqiu is definitely not one of them.”

Duan Yu, who was standing to the side, thought for a moment and felt that since he met Brother Xu, he had witnessed too many of Brother Xu's defeats of famous martial arts masters. Therefore, he agreed and said, "That's right. Brother Xu's martial arts are very powerful, even if they are not invincible. We don't need to be afraid of Ding Chunqiu at all."

Although Wu Yazi was surprised by Xu Xingchen's confidence in his martial arts skills, his focus was not on the martial arts themselves, but on the fact that the two of them were "immune to all poisons".

In terms of martial arts alone, even if his eldest disciple Su Xinghe is no match for that wicked disciple Ding Chunqiu, he can still have Su Xinghe send a message to his senior and junior sisters, asking them to deal with that wicked disciple Ding Chunqiu.

Wu Yazi had been worried about his wicked disciple Ding Chunqiu's skills in poisons for many years, so he dared not tell his senior and junior sisters about his accident, fearing that they would be implicated and suffer the same fate as Ding Chunqiu.

Now, upon hearing that the two people before him possessed bodies immune to all poisons, he was greatly surprised and delighted, and quickly asked, "Are you two truly immune to all poisons? How did you manage to do that?"

"My immunity to all poisons is thanks to the internal energy cultivation method I practice," Xu Xingchen said, then turned to Duan Yu, "As for Brother Duan, I'm afraid he has other fortunate opportunities and opportunities."

Duan Yu was dazed, looking completely confused: "I don't know if I'm immune to all poisons. It's just that when the people from Xixia's First-Class Hall used poison gas to ambush the Beggar Clan disciples in the Apricot Grove that day, I didn't feel any discomfort."

Xu Xingchen pointed out, "In that case, your body would also be immune to all poisons."

Brother Duan, in the more than six months we've been apart, have you eaten anything unusual? Or perhaps some miraculous elixir?

Upon hearing this, Duan Yu seemed to recall something, and with a cry of "Ah!", he quickly said, "I once ate a small, blood-red toad whose croaking sounded like a cow's moo."

As he spoke, he recounted how he had been unlucky enough to be poisoned by the lightning weasel, collapsed on the ground unable to move, and how a centipede and a small, blood-red toad had subsequently crawled into his mouth.

Xu Xingchen sighed inwardly, "This kid truly lives up to his reputation as one of the three main characters of the Tianlong world; that opportunity ultimately fell to him."

Wu Yazi, being knowledgeable and experienced, immediately recognized the toad as the Manggu Toad, one of the most poisonous creatures in the world, after listening to Duan Yu's description of it. He was amazed by Duan Yu's extraordinary encounter.

Similarly, he was amazed by Xu Xingchen's internal energy cultivation method that made him immune to all poisons.

Both of them were immune to all poisons and were not afraid of his wicked disciple Ding Chunqiu in terms of martial arts.

In this way, he no longer needed to fear that his wicked disciple Ding Chunqiu would find out that he was still alive, and even if that wicked disciple came to his door, he would have a way to deal with it.

In an instant, Wuya Zi felt his heart expand and he regained the motivation to live.

"Fine! Fine! Fine! Since that's how it is, then I'll just live a little longer!"

Wu Yazi's inner conflict was resolved, and he agreed to let Xu Xingchen continue to search for ways to heal him.

Xu Xingchen's purpose in coming here has finally been achieved.

Then he invited, "Senior Wuyazi, would you be willing to come and stay with me at Xiaoyao Manor?"

Wu Yazi agreed without much thought.

I've been eking out a living in this cave for so many years.

He also wanted to go out and walk in the sunshine, to wander around, to see the sights, to appreciate the beauty of nature, and to witness the sunrise and sunset.
