Chapter 198 Taotie



At the Jinyiwei General Banner Station, Zhang Mingtu put aside the black lake-shaped tiger placenta cream at hand. Half of the tiger placenta cream wrapped in oilcloth paper had been used.

Even for someone who has achieved great success in martial arts and entered the realm of true essence, it would take at least two months to consume so much tiger placenta paste, but Zhang Mingtu ate so much in just one day.

He felt his entire body bloated, and his limbs and bones felt full.

Zhang Mingtu knew that this attitude and state were not a good thing.

But he also knew clearly that he didn't have much time left.

Whenever Zhang Mingtu closed his eyes, a bright knife light would appear in front of his eyes. Under the knife light, all his flesh and blood would dry up and turn into bones in an instant.

"Blood Blade Hongji!"

Zhang Mingtu uttered these four words softly, and felt that the unstable aura and state around him were much better than before.

Tiger placenta paste is a top-notch product that has miraculous effects on strengthening the body and bones, but even the best things can cause problems if eaten too much in a short period of time.

Zhang Mingtu is now suffering from the problem of eating too much, which has caused his bones and muscles to be unable to absorb energy and his qi and blood to be deficient.

The overall body shape did not change much, but in Zhang Mingtu's own spiritual perception, his whole body seemed to expand like an inflated balloon, like a big fat man.

There was a sense of discomfort in every movement.

But Zhang Mingtu did not look too depressed. Instead, he cut his hand with the long knife beside him.

A bloody wound appeared, but it quickly recovered at an unreasonable speed.

Taotie method!

This method is practiced only by the most elite vanguard troops in the northern border army and is one of the secret teachings of the northern border.

To be precise, it is a method passed down after the founding of Daxia.

The so-called "first to climb" refers to the first person to reach the top of the city wall during a siege.

Such people are often the most elite soldiers in the entire army and have the greatest courage.

Sieges often require such fearless and courageous people, similar to death warriors.

But such people are not born. The best of the best will be selected from a large number of elite soldiers on the northern border, and those with the strongest physique and courage will be chosen.

Then teach them the Taotie method.

Among those who go to the border to join the army, there are few from aristocratic families. Most of them are poor people who want to change their fate by fighting in the army.

They do not lack courage, but lack sufficient strength.

But they have not had enough exercise over the years, have no top-notch medicinal nourishment, and no methods passed down from generation to generation in their family for them to practice.

Rice ball reading

No matter how much courage one has, it is useless without strength. Therefore, in order to help them improve their strength quickly, they will be asked to practice Taotie.

The Taotie method originated from a demonic sect at the beginning of the founding of Daxia.

It does not require various requirements such as talent and temperament. The only requirements are willpower and resources for practice.

He swallowed a large amount of cultivation resources, piling them up crazily in his body like a glutton, and then used various powerful methods to train himself in a self-mutilating manner.

Taotie devours everything; there is only food coming in and nothing coming out.

The same goes for the Taotie method. No matter what kind of treasure it is, it can be swallowed and stored in the body to become its own foundation and strength.

As long as they can persist and survive, those who practice Taotie can make rapid progress in strength within just one or two years.

But this method also has some shortcomings.

Taotie will eat anything and eventually die from bloating, bursting from countless foods and objects.

Even if the vanguard army who practiced the Taotie method tried to digest the rare treasures and related spiritual objects they swallowed, enough drug poisons would eventually accumulate in their bodies, and they would be unable to make any further progress after reaching the peak of the True Essence Realm.

Basically, practicing this kind of method is a way of practicing that cuts off one's future. Of course, for ordinary poor families, being able to reach the peak of the True Essence Realm will be valued even in a prefecture or a county.

That is already an existence that ordinary people need to look up to, and they don't care about the consequences.

Zhang Mingtu himself does not need to use such a method for his practice, he can proceed more smoothly.

But with the investigation over the past few days, they can all be sure that Blood Knife Hongji definitely has an inexplicable connection with the people of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun.

If he didn't improve his strength with some urgent means, he would not be able to dodge the blow of Blood Knife Hongji when he arrived, and the blow would suck all his blood and energy away.

boom!

Feeling the fullness of qi and blood in his body, Zhang Mingtu performed another set of Dragon and Tiger Fists.

The dragon and tiger external pills were close to his body, and the thoughts of the Dragon God and the Tiger Demon grew wildly in his body, and then fought madly.

Bones, tendons, blood vessels, every part is a battlefield, destroying his body from the smallest corner.

Zhang Mingtu's improvement was fast enough, but his body needed some nourishment and could not be too violent.

Now that time is running out, Zhang Mingtu has no choice but to find some compromise.

The Taotie technique operated naturally, and the inside of the body seemed to have turned into a black hole, but the bones, meridians, blood and flesh all contained vigorous life essence.

When even the smallest corner of the body is damaged, it recovers naturally.

The two most difficult points to grasp in the Taotie method are: one is that the drug poison is difficult to digest and over time one will eventually become seriously ill. Even if one reaches the peak of the Zhenyuan realm, his life will not be too long.

On the other hand, it is difficult to grasp the specific degree of repair. No matter what kind of training method is used, it is impossible to damage all parts of the body. Once damaged, even with the Taotie method, it is impossible to completely repair the whole body without any flaws.

Over time, countless hidden injuries will accumulate inside the body.

But for Zhang Mingtu, none of this is a problem.

"The Taotie method can repair the body in the most comprehensive way. All I need is enough energy and enough natural treasures. What I lack the most right now is the blood of monsters and the energy of life."

"The other difficulty lies in precisely controlling the Taotie method to repair the bones and meridians throughout the body. I have master-level experience and a clear understanding of all the key points throughout the body. The most difficult part is actually easy for me."

"As for the poison..."

With the Dragon-Tiger External Pill, combined with the Dragon-Tiger Fist, even the most powerful poison can be mobilized and then eliminated invisibly in the battle within the body.

"call!"

Feeling that the energy in his body could no longer keep up with the recovery of his body, Zhang Mingtu exhaled lightly, took out ten jade bottles from his arms, and swallowed the blood and essence of the monster beasts in the jade bottles into his stomach in one gulp.

If he practices normally, these will be enough for him to practice without worries for several months, and this is with the knowledge of a master, and the consumption of the three most advanced magical skills.

But now, with the operation of the Taotie technique, all the life essence that was so huge that it could starve Zhang Mingtu to death was swallowed into his stomach.
