Chapter 127 Taking the Inner Core of the Mangku Zhuha
The straight-line distance and the shortest time.
The wind whistled in my ears, and the scenery rushed past me.
The internal energy was flowing continuously, and although the consumption was great, the recovery speed brought by the Great Perfection of "Harmony with Light and Dust" was extremely amazing, which was enough to support this high-intensity long-distance march.
About an hour later, as the sun began to set and the sky turned a dusky yellow, the mountains ahead began to slope gently, and a winding dirt road came into view. At the end of the road, the outline of a small town appeared in the twilight.
With its blue bricks and gray tiles, and wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys, it is not as large as the previous border town, but it exudes a tranquility unique to a small border town.
Wu Feng slowed down and landed at the edge of a small grove of trees some distance from the town entrance.
He first carefully adjusted the customer service uniform on his body.
His clothes were stained with dirt from the previous battle, and there were holes in the cuffs caused by the poisonous blood, making him look quite disheveled.
He took out a spare identical Xia customer service uniform from his backpack and put it on, looking much cleaner.
With a thought, he put the potentially conspicuous weapon into his backpack.
Finally, he took out the wide-brimmed bamboo hat and put it securely on his head.
The straw hat lowered his eyebrows, obscuring most of his face, revealing only his well-defined chin and tightly pursed lips.
After doing all this, he started walking slowly towards the town entrance, mingling with a few woodcutters and merchants returning home late.
He looked like an ordinary traveler who had just arrived in this world.
The guard at the town entrance merely glanced at him lazily before waving him away.
Upon entering Xiyuan Town, the streets paved with bluestone slabs are not wide, but they are relatively clean.
The lights of the shops on both sides gradually came on, and the wine flags swayed gently in the evening breeze.
Players gathered in twos and threes in front of the tavern to chat, but the density was lower than in the previous city.
There were far fewer people; most were in a hurry, focused on their own affairs.
Wu Feng lowered his straw hat and calmly scanned the street, not lingering on any particular spot.
He needs an inn that is quiet and private enough.
They quickly found a guesthouse located at the east end of the town, with a sign that read "Yue'an Guesthouse".
Stepping into the lobby, a cacophony of noise hits you. Most of the seven or eight tables are occupied, mostly by local diners and a few gamers, suggesting that business is booming.
The shopkeeper behind the counter was using an abacus.
Wu Feng walked straight to the counter, his voice low but clear: "Manager, I need a superior room, something quiet, preferably with a private courtyard."
The innkeeper looked up, sized up the customer wearing a straw hat whose face was obscured, and put on a professional smile: "You've come at the right time, sir. There's a small, secluded courtyard available in the east wing of the backyard, but the price..."
"Price is not a problem," Wu Feng interrupted directly, taking out a five-tael silver ingot from his pocket and placing it on the counter. "Please settle in first. Meals and hot water will be delivered to your room later. Also, prepare some dry food, dried meat, and water that will keep for a while, as I need them for my journey tomorrow."
Upon seeing the silver, the innkeeper's eyes lit up, and his attitude became even more enthusiastic: "Alright! You're so generous, sir! Waiter, please take this gentleman to the elegant room in the east wing of the back courtyard!"
A waiter nimbly ran over and led Wu Feng through the noisy lobby, down a corridor, to the backyard of the inn.
The backyard was much quieter than the front yard, with a few clumps of bamboo and several separate houses.
The waiter pushed open the door to a small courtyard on the east side. Inside was a main house with a small courtyard, and it was indeed secluded.
"Sir, how about this room? I guarantee no one will disturb you," the waiter said solicitously.
Wu Feng nodded, stepped inside, and quickly scanned the area.
The courtyard wall was not low, the main house doors and windows were intact, and the location was indeed remote. The two small courtyards next door were dark, and it seemed that no one lived there.
"This is the one," he said.
The waiter responded, left the key, confirmed the request for food, hot water, and dry rations, and then tactfully withdrew, closing the courtyard gate behind him.
As the waiter's footsteps faded into the distance, Wu Feng entered the main room, bolted the door behind him, and checked the windows.
The bedroom was small and simply furnished, with a wooden bed, a square table, and two chairs, but it was kept clean.
He walked to the table, sat down, exhaled, and took out the [Mangku Zhuha Inner Core] from his backpack.
The round bead, about the size of a longan, still emitted a soft, milky-white halo in the dim light. The red glow inside flowed slowly. When held in the palm of your hand, you could feel a slight coolness, but lurking deeper within was a kind of heart-palpitating heat and deadly poison.
He could clearly sense how potent the toxicity of this substance was.
"I'll give it my all," Wu Feng muttered to himself, his eyes showing no hesitation.
Risk? I've been almost poisoned to death before, what's there to be afraid of?
He brought the inner elixir to his lips, tilted his head back, and swallowed it whole.
The round pearls had no special taste when they entered the mouth, and as they went down the throat, they initially felt only slightly cool.
But soon, it felt as if something was melting inside her stomach.
A strange torrent, both blazing hot and chillingly cold, suddenly exploded out and rushed towards every part of the body!
"Well!"
Wu Feng grunted, instantly arching his back, veins bulging on his forehead.
Pain! Excruciating, bone-chilling pain!
It felt like countless red-hot needles traveling and piercing through blood vessels and meridians, or like extremely cold ice shards scraping and cutting inside the body.
A mixture of hot and cold, rampant toxicity!
In the upper left corner of the field of vision, the green health bar, which had just been fully restored due to the upgrade and escape from the poison zone, began to jump wildly, and the value plummeted like an avalanche:
-500!
-500!
-500!
Five hundred points per second!
The rate at which health is being lost is alarming.
"As expected... I can handle it, but it fucking hurts." Wu Feng gritted his teeth, cold sweat instantly beaded on his forehead, and his body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
He dared not delay and immediately activated the Five Poison Gu Technique with all his might!
Within the dantian, the dark green vortex of poisonous energy began to spin wildly at an unprecedented speed, generating a powerful suction force, like a bottomless abyss, actively welcoming the violent poisonous essence rampaging through the body, forcibly absorbing, dragging, and refining it!
At the same time, the pure yang true qi of the Pure Yang Wuji Gong also surged through the meridians, like a warm dam protecting the vital meridians, and constantly burning and dispelling the toxins that could not be absorbed in time.
Two streams of true energy, vastly different yet equally powerful, worked in tandem under his masterful control, one absorbing and transforming, the other defending and dispelling.
The excruciating pain persisted, but the rate at which his health points were decreasing began to visibly slow down.
-400……-300……-200……
When the rate of blood loss finally stabilized at around -50 points per second and continued to slowly decrease over time, the raging torrent of poison that seemed to tear him apart from the inside was finally completely controlled by the Five Poisons Gu Technique, like a wild horse being reined in.
The pain did not disappear, but it had transformed from an unbearable, slow, agonizing ordeal into a gentle, arduous process that one could grit their teeth and endure.
He could feel the essence of the poison that had been absorbed and refined gradually merging into the dark green cyclone, making its color deeper and its texture more condensed.
Meanwhile, the pure medicinal power, stripped of its violent attributes, began to nourish his nearly parched meridians and flesh like sweet rain.
It was an indescribable feeling of comfort.
It was like a long-awaited rain after a drought, or a withered tree welcoming the new spring.
The body is repaired and nourished by this powerful and pure life force.
You can hear the faint cracking of bones, feel the muscle fibers becoming stronger, the blood flowing more powerfully, and your five senses seem to become a little clearer.
The bleeding has stopped.
Not only did it stop, but its health began to recover at an even faster rate.
[System Notification: Successfully digested the [Mangku Zhuha Inner Core]! Maximum True Qi permanently increased by 5000, Root Bone permanently increased by 100, and Luck permanently increased by 25. Gained the permanent trait [Zhuha Hundred Poisons Body]!]
Become!
Wu Feng exhaled a long, thorough breath.
The breath was long and lingering, with no trace of fishy or sweet odor.
Instead, it carries a faint, crisp scent, like the aftertaste of burning vegetation.
