Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 1022 - 59: The Enchantress’s Surprise
Chapter 1022 -59: The Enchantress’s Surprise
Yan Yu yawned.
Having helped others so many times, he had become precise in controlling the amount of True Yang he extracted, avoiding severe damage to his vitality.
But this time, the damage was more mental because Tang Xiaolian’s voice was incredibly penetrating… even now, Yan Yu felt her cries echoing in his ears.
Am I really that violent?
In terms of combat power, Tang Xiaolian and Xie Ruoxi were of the same level: the ultra-soft type that would collapse with a gentle push, distinctly different from others.
The difference was, faced with Yan Yu’s brute strength, Xie Ruoxi would quickly choose to give up, “Either kill me or let me go”; while Tang Xiaolian would go, “Although I can’t beat you, I’ll scream so the whole world knows you’re bullying me.”
Moreover, in terms of attributes, Xie Ruoxi was like clay, appearing completely exhausted and unable to move, but would suddenly start wriggling in a strange way.
On the other hand, Tang Xiaolian was more like water… no need to explain further.
Of course, Yan Yu didn’t mind any of this. He simply enjoyed helping others and wanted to train more powerful Golden Core True Men for Lu Country. So whether made of water, clay, or cement, he would selflessly, and gladly, take on the responsibility!
Yan Yu reached Mr. Mei’s laboratory door when he suddenly heard Zhao Yuanzhen’s impatient voice from inside:
“No, absolutely not! This is a secret technique of our sect, it cannot be taught outside, don’t even think about it!”
“You’ve already taught it to Yan Yu, why can’t I know?” Mei Yingxue replied patiently, “How about this? I’ll exchange a secret technique from Emei Sword Sect with you…”
“Forget it, forget it!” Zhao Yuanzhen shouted, “Your so-called secret techniques from Emei Sword Sect are written in the textbooks you compiled and distributed to every Military Manor Cultivator in Lu Country. How can that be compared to my Puppet Technique?”
The two were bickering when Yan Yu pushed the door open and came in from outside. Zhao Yuanzhen immediately walked up in three steps and hugged Yan Yu’s arm, indignantly shouting:
“Yan Yu, she wants to steal my Puppet Technique, you help me beat her up.”
Yan Yu certainly wouldn’t beat up Mr. Mei, but with his arm tightly held by the enchantress, even the hardest heart would soften. So he asked Mei Yingxue:
“What’s going on?”
“I want to exchange for her Golden Cicada Shelling technique.” Mei Yingxue said seriously, “If promoted among the Military Manor Cultivators, it could greatly reduce their battle casualties.”
“Golden Cicada Shelling, that’s the escape technique she used when you first crossed to Earth, to evade your pursuit, right?” Yan Yu pondered and asked, “Doesn’t it require using a puppet as a sacrifice?”
“Exactly!” Zhao Yuanzhen immediately agreed, “Puppet manipulation is very complicated, a Sword Immortal like you can’t use it. Just give up the idea.”
“It’s not for me, it’s for the Military Manor Cultivators.” Mei Yingxue explained, “I don’t need the entire Puppet Technique, just the Golden Cicada Shelling’s secret method. This way, the Military Manor Cultivators won’t need to master the puppet manipulation, they just need to use it to block fatal attacks at critical moments.”
“Then every Military Manor Cultivator needs a puppet.” Yan Yu said.
“The lowest level puppet should be no problem,” Mei Yingxue replied, “With the technological advancements from mass-producing the Xuan Guang Ruler, we now have the capability for industrial production of some low-level magic treasures.”
“My puppets are not low-level magic treasures!” Zhao Yuanzhen shouted angrily.
“Since they’re only used for dying in place, there’s no need to produce high-quality puppets.” Mei Yingxue insisted, “As long as they can be used for Golden Cicada Shelling.”
“You mean like the Shinyori Simie paper-man death substitution?” Yan Yu asked, “Make the puppets as small and light as possible, carry them around, and only use them for Golden Cicada Shelling.”
“Exactly.” Mei Yingxue nodded, “It could lower the mortality rate of the Military Manor Cultivators.”
“But there’s a problem with that.” Yan Yu said.
“What problem?”
“Once the secret technique is spread, if it falls into the hands of rogue cultivators, it’ll be hard to kill them.” Yan Yu said.
Mei Yingxue was silent for a moment and then asked:
“What if it’s kept highly confidential?”
“Can something distributed to every Military Manor Cultivator be kept highly confidential?” Yan Yu asked with a sneer. fгeewebnovёl.com
The answer was, of course, no. For example, Mr. Mei’s Sword Control Technique textbook theoretically should only be circulated within the four armies, but in reality, almost every rogue cultivator knew it… No matter how strict the confidentiality, if enough people knew about it, the secret would definitely get out.
“Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators below the Core Formation stage are typically strong in attack but weak in defense.” Yan Yu continued to analyze, “If you hit me first, I die; if I hit you first, you die. Military Manor Cultivators are superior to rogue cultivators through systematic training, with stronger first-strike and concentrated fire capabilities.”
“If the life-preserving secret technique of Golden Cicada Shelling spreads uncontrollably, Military Manor Cultivators might often find themselves unable to kill rogue cultivators although they’ve won. The opponent throws out a puppet and escapes. How will you stop them from causing trouble then?”
Mei Yingxue struggled with her emotions for a moment and said unwillingly:
“What if we control the puppet production technology and strictly forbid its circulation?”
“It’s uncontrollable.” Yan Yu shook his head, “Elixir Medicines are also strictly regulated and nationally controlled, yet black market elixir trades persist. There will always be lucky individuals who find elixir sources in special mysterious realms. How can you ensure no one can supply puppets? The scarcity is in the dharma methods, not the materials.”
