Chapitre 36: Chapter 36: Resolving the Martial Artist Plague Spot (Please follow, seeking Yue tickets!)
Qi-Blood Power transformed into a great dragon and became entangled with the Poisonous Flood Dragon formed from the martial artist's illness in an instant.
Their methods of attack had no fanciness, it was pure "hand-to-hand" combat.
Tearing, gnawing, ripping!
That was the extent of their struggle.
Every time the Qi-Blood Power tore off a "piece of flesh" from the Poisonous Flood Dragon, the martial artist's illness would shrink a bit.
The Poisonous Flood Dragon's attacks would likewise weaken and reduce the size of the great dragon formed by the Qi-Blood Power.
Not only that, but each time the Poisonous Flood Dragon gnawed off a chunk of the great dragon's "flesh and blood", it would recover some strength, while the great dragon had to expend its own power to grind down the force of the Poisonous Flood Dragon it had consumed.
Fortunately, the great dragon formed by the Qi-Blood Power was strong enough that, even under these circumstances, it could continually weaken the Poisonous Flood Dragon.
But this state couldn't be maintained for too long.
Otherwise, in this continuous give-and-take, the Poisonous Flood Dragon would become increasingly powerful, and once the Qi-Blood great dragon could no longer gain the upper hand, this rush at the disease would fail.
And the Poisonous Flood Dragon would grow even more powerful due to the supplement of Qi-Blood Power, making the next assault even more difficult.
Wang Sheng instantly felt the trickiness of martial artist's plague, no wonder those below a Third Grade Martial Artist would surely die.
However—
Tricky as it may be, it didn't mean there wasn't a way to deal with it.
The current situation could be quantified with data.
Each attack by the Qi-Blood Power would weaken the Poisonous Flood Dragon by 5, while each attack by the Poisonous Flood Dragon would weaken the Qi-Blood great dragon by 2, and heal itself by 1, and both of their attack frequencies were roughly the same.
That is to say, each attack by the Qi-Blood Power actually weakened the disease caused by martial artist's plague by 4.
It was a substantial advantage.
What Wang Sheng needed to do was to maintain this advantage, then the disease from the martial artist's plague would eventually be worn away by the Qi-Blood Power.
After all, judging from the disappearance of the sense of crisis before the assault, even if Wang Sheng did nothing, the great dragon formed by the Qi-Blood Power would still be able to whittle away the Poisonous Flood Dragon.
Not to mention that, out of concern, he still had three Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills in his mouth.
The Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills continuously replenished him, maintaining the intensity of the Qi-Blood Power without falling.
Simply put, the Qi-Blood great dragon not only held the advantage, but also it was in a state of constant recovery.
After the great dragon and the Poisonous Flood Dragon fought for a while, the great dragon had hardly consumed much, but the Poisonous Flood Dragon had already become significantly "weaker."
Perhaps it was because the disease core of the martial artist's plague "took the offensive" initially, although it was the strongest, it was also the fastest to disintegrate.
The first three diseases cores, at most, lasted an assault of three days.
Wang Sheng started the charge on the martial artist's plague in the morning, and by the time the sky had darkened, only a tiny bit remained.
And that tiny bit, after the Qi-Blood Power transformed into the great dragon's final strike, completely dissipated.
"Roar~"
Wang Sheng felt as if he heard the unwilling roar of the Poisonous Flood Dragon, but no matter how unwilling it was, it had no effect at all, as the disease core formed by the martial artist's plague, at the instant the Poisonous Flood Dragon vanished, was truly an "empty city," even with its gates wide open.
"Mighty~"
Wang Sheng seemed to hear a dragon's chant as the great dragon formed by the Qi-Blood Power instantly crashed into this last disease core.
Boom!
Like a long-blocked mountain torrent bursting forth, the Qi-Blood Power broke through the disease core in the blink of an eye, rushing forward inside Wang Sheng's body with a thunderous roar.
And the moment the disease core of the martial artist's plague was breached, Wang Sheng felt as if the heavy stone that had been pressing on him ever since he entered the "Flipping Illness" phase had completely vanished without a trace.
Wild and exhilarating!
This was his most genuine feeling at the moment.
If it wasn't for the inappropriate surroundings, he would have already roared out loud.
It was a feeling hard to describe.
It was as if born anew, without illness or impurity, without worry or annoyance, his whole being immersed in Chaos, his body smooth and integrated, untouched by dust, invulnerable to external evils.
However, the sensation lasted only a moment, as if something was overlooked in his body, causing that wondrous feeling to disappear.
Wang Sheng came back to his senses and quickly figured out the reason for this.
That feeling was actually the sensation of completing the process of "Finding Disease" and "Flipping Illness," the "death and rebirth" journey, and then completing the Qi Rushing to the Disease, a total transformation.
It only lasted a fleeting moment because he had not completed the final stage of "Qi Rushing to the Disease"—
reducing the disease!
After all the lesions in the body were flushed out, it was akin to having undergone surgery. The surgery cures the disease, but the surgical wounds still require healing.
Reducing the disease is like the stage where you recover from the surgical wounds.
The work of the Qi-Blood power was not yet over; it would continue to operate, repairing the "wounds" left from the impact on the lesions.
One must not underestimate this step.
The goal of the hundred-day Foundation Establishment is to achieve a complete transformation and attain a flawless body.
Therefore, meticulous and slow work is necessary to ensure that not even the slightest defect remains; otherwise, it would feel like something was leaking out, as if one's momentum was dwindling.
If severe, it could even affect the development of future levels of martial cultivation.
Now that the biggest threat, Martial Artist Plague, had been dealt with, Wang Sheng's personal safety was no longer under threat.
He could take his time to heal; there was no need to rush.
Because of the threat of the Martial Artist Plague which forced him to consider his own life and stop practicing, he could now resume practicing the Bajiquan and the Plum Flower Step.
The importance of these two skills was not insignificant, as they could enable him to maximize the potential of his Qi-Blood power.
During the fight with the Mountain Lord, if it was not for Bajiquan, the victor would still be uncertain.
And back then, it was only Bajiquan at Level Six.
He was eager to know what it would be like if he practiced Bajiquan to the point of Breakthrough.
Thinking of these, Wang Sheng did not feel overwhelmed by the amount of training ahead; rather, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hoo~"
"Finally back on track!"
The Martial Artist Plague was purged.
The sword hanging over his head had at last been removed, and he could continue upgrading himself methodically. He glanced at his current skill progress.
"Qi Rushing to the Disease: reducing the disease (1%)
Ba Duan Jin: Breakthrough+3 (28%)
Inner Core Skill (Hundred-day Foundation Establishment): Breakthrough+3 (23%)
Herb Recognition: Breakthrough+2 (75%)
Medicinal Plant Cultivation: Breakthrough+3 (65%)
Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill Making: 5 (2%)
Bajiquan: 8 (25%)
Plum Flower Step: 6 (13%)"
As expected, Qi Rushing to the Disease had entered the phase of reducing the disease, with the Qi-Blood power running for the third time.
However, just as Wang Sheng had anticipated, this cycle was slower.
He estimated that the completion time would exceed that of Finding Disease.
But with every leak sealed, his mastery over his Qi-Blood power would strengthen, and his power would grow. This process could not be considered agonizing!
The progress of making the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills was significant, as they were made daily.
Upon reviewing his current status, Wang Sheng quickly mapped out his time management.
The time allocated for Inner Core Skill and Ba Duan Jin could return to normal, with more time dedicated to Bajiquan and the Plum Flower Step.
Additionally, the time for Medicinal Plant Cultivation had to be increased.
Resources were of the essence, and now that the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill production could not keep up with consumption, it was time to speed up the cultivation rate.
Not just Medicinal Plant Cultivation, considering the current situation, there would definitely be a shortage of food.
Even if Qingshan Village had prepared food in advance, it might not suffice after entering Qingshan Village, so he also needed to work on improving his Grain Planting skill.
After resolving the Martial Artist Plague, everything seemed to have returned to the initial state, busy yet fulfilling.
"The familiar feeling is back!"
However, while his days returned to normal, the rest of the people in Qingshan Village couldn't say the same, as Xu Qu had already started treating the Martial Artist Plague...
