Out of fear of death, Invest Everything into Health-Chapter 176 - 113: Blood Tribulation and Death Immortal, Foundation Forging

Fan Wubing asked, "Where is this place?"

Qin Yi quickly replied, "Nankao City."

"Nankao City?" Fan Wubing pondered, "Within the territory of Canglang Country?"

"Yes." Qin Yi cautiously asked, "You are not from Canglang Country, are you?"

Fan Wubing said, "I come from the North."

The North?

The only place Qin Yi knew of in the North was the Profound One Spirit Marsh. He thought, being so formidable at just fifteen years old and coming from the Profound One Spirit Marsh, could it be one of those major sects! But even the strongest Eternal Immortal Sect hadn't been known to have such a genius, right?

Could it be even further North!

Further North, there's only... the Changsheng Continent!

Qin Yi's heart pounded. If it were the legendary Changsheng Continent, then indeed there might be such a prodigy. His mind became agile immediately, filled with respect as he asked, "Are you here for a tour in Canglang Country, Fellow Daoist?"

Having finished adjusting his breathing, Fan Wubing restored to his peak condition, and "Sheyu" had also digested the latter three volumes of the Blood Burning Skill. At this moment, he only wanted to find a place to study them thoroughly.

He felt quite happy at the thought of finally being able to update and iterate the Blood Burning Skill.

He looked at Qin Yi and asked, "How far is it from here to the Imperial Capital Jinshui?"

Qin Yi furrowed his brow, "Do you intend to go to Jinshui City, Fellow Daoist?"

"Yes."

Qin Yi looked pleased, "Then why not travel with me? I am also heading back to Jinshui City."

Fan Wubing could see through his intention, mostly seeking some protection.

That did not pose any trouble, so he agreed. Having a local guide could also avoid much hassle, "Alright."

...

Fan Wubing first arrived at the nearby Nankao City and sent a letter to his father, Fan Qi, to report his safety.

Then he and Qin Yi found an inn to stay at.

After getting to know each other a little, Fan Wubing learned that Qin Yi held a position in the Canglang Country's court, working as an official in the Immortal Dao Bureau responsible for the country's cultivation affairs. He was on this trip under a court mandate to investigate a crime involving a cultivator in the region of Nankao City.

This court official came here and painstakingly uncovered the involvement of a force known as Tingyu Tower within Canglang Country. To halt his investigation, Tingyu Tower dispatched two late-stage Golden Core assassins to silence him. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Daring to kill a court envoy within Canglang Country?" Fan Wubing doubted the decision of Tingyu Tower. Killing an envoy would only draw greater attention, wouldn't it?

Qin Yi let out a bitter laugh, "It's not that Tingyu Tower is foolish. It's just that no force dares to be associated with this kind of affair."

"What affair?"

Qin Yi thought for a moment, feeling he had no confidence in hiding the truth from Fan Wubing, so he simply said, "Demon Dao practitioners."

"Demon Dao?"

"Yes. When the Immortal Dao Bureau received the case, it was initially thought to be an ordinary crime by a cultivator. But upon arrival, I found that the cultivator criminal was a Demon Cultivator. Furthermore, after some enquiry, I discovered that his fall into the Demon Dao originated at Tingyu Tower. Yet, before I could question more, he had been remotely manipulated to commit suicide."

"No wonder."

The Demon Dao is intolerable to people. Various factions, no matter how fiercely they fought on ordinary days, would spontaneously unite to annihilate a Demon Cultivator once encountered. It could be said that once a faction is labeled with the "Demon Dao" stigma, it is on the verge of destruction.

Qin Yi said, "Fellow Daoist Lv, I have informed the nearest Immortal Dao Bureau branch. We should have someone coming to escort us to Jinshui City by the afternoon. Please wait a little longer."

Fan Wubing took on the alias "Lv Wu," "Hmm, thank you."

"No need to be polite, Fellow Daoist Lv. I owe you my life."

...

While waiting, Fan Wubing began pondering the insights he gained from digesting "Sheyu."

After some consolidation,

the main gains were the latter three volumes of the Blood Burning Skill, along with the physical divine technique "Demon Body Weaponization," and the particular long sword in hand, which, regardless of its former name, had now become "Pointing Moon."

After refining "Pointing Moon," Fan Wubing could genuinely feel its power. Unlike weapons forged by an Artifact Refiner with precise attributes and grades,

the strength of Pointing Moon directly correlated with his physical strength. In theory, as long as the body isn't destroyed, Pointing Moon would persist indefinitely.

Very strong!

In some sense, it is also a weapon capable of continuous growth.

This aspect is quite similar to Peach Blossoms. However, Pointing Moon lacks any individual will and is almost a straightforward weapon, unlike Peach Blossoms, which has its own little schemes.

As for "Demon Body Weaponization," the main ability allows the conversion of every inch of flesh into weapons or vice versa, converting weapons into one's flesh... Simply put, the physical body now embodies the traits of various weapons, capable of showing the sharpness of a sword, the power of a blade, the agility of a whip, and the grace of a fan...

The direct transformation is that formerly using fists against foes was truly using fists, but now, unleashing sword qi and blade light with a punch is no longer a joke but reality.

This hasn't reached perfection yet, and once perfected, gaining the talent "Divine Court Hundred Soldiers" will elevate it to another level.

This talent grants an intense control over all weapons.

Here, "all weapons" doesn't just refer to one's own—others'... can also be controlled. The key point is the control effect depends on the body's strength.

In short, "disarmament."

Lastly, the main part.

Fan Wubing composed himself to focus intently. He connected his first volume of the Blood Burning Skill with the latter three volumes acquired from He Chen, then proceeded to gain comprehension and integration. Subsequently, a prompt emerged,

["Blood Calamity Undead Technique"]
