Chapter 532 Human-Snake Integration
At this moment, the back hall of Jishitang was silent. Chujiu, Feng Churan, and I were all sitting on the benches, all silent with solemn expressions.
It had been about an hour since we walked out of the ward, but there was still no sound coming from the ward. Only the smell of medicine that filled the air from time to time showed that Qin Jianing was working hard to save Feng Changhe.
"Dad will be fine." Feng Churan muttered to herself with red eyes, then turned to look at Chujiu and said, "Sister, Golden Silkworm...why did it fall into a dozing state? As far as I know, Golden Silkworm has never had this kind of situation before." Hearing this
, Chujiu shook her head tiredly, "I don't know the specific situation, but one of my ancestors also had this kind of situation."
"Why don't I know?" Feng Churan was stunned and asked in surprise, "Then what? What happened to the ancestor? Did he reawaken the Golden Silkworm?"
Hearing this, Chujiu did not speak, but lowered his head with a solemn face.
Although Chujiu said nothing, she actually said everything. With Feng Churan's quirky and intelligent personality, she understood immediately. Her eyes immediately turned red and tears fell.
"Why did Second Master and the others do this? Aren't we a family? Why do we have to kill each other?" Feng Churan covered her face and sobbed.
In response, Chujiu just let out a long breath, then forced a smile and patted Feng Churan on the back, saying: "Churan, people are treacherous, you are still young, you will understand when you grow up."
"Sister, did the ancestor of our family really... pass away in the end?" Feng Churan's face was full of tears, and she looked at Chujiu expectantly and asked: "Is there... no way at all? The golden silkworm is known as the king of silkworms and is immune to all silkworm poisons. I don't believe that my father will be poisoned to death by silkworm poison!"
"My father was not poisoned by an ordinary silkworm." Chujiu lowered his head and said tiredly: "If I am not mistaken, old man Ku Rong... may have entered the legendary realm."
"The legendary realm? What realm?" Feng Churan asked with a puzzled look.
Hearing this, Chujiu pondered for a while, and then said: "Legend has it that the twelve generals of Yelang State were all top-level dragon masters. Each of them has entered the legendary realm of human-dragon unity, and is the master among masters. I suspect that old man Ku Rong has also reached this realm, so his Qi is poisonous. And this poison is not just as simple as the poison of the dragon. The dragon poison and the Qi in old man Ku Rong's body produced a chemical reaction to form a new poison. In addition, old man Ku Rong used special means to make the golden silkworm fall into a dozing state, so my father was poisoned."
"Human and snake become one?" Feng Churan's eyes widened, his face full of shock. "That's a legendary realm. There hasn't been such a person for hundreds of years. Is there really someone who can do it?"
Human and snake become one, which is a realm that all snake masters are pursuing. Once this realm is reached, the thoughts between humans and snakes will reach a kind of empathy without any obstacles. The thoughts of the snake master can be understood by the snake immediately, and the thoughts of the snake can be understood by the snake master in seconds. To put it bluntly, it is an enhanced version of the natal snake.
Moreover, the snake also needs to be cultivated. Some snakes need to devour the miasma between heaven and earth, or devour other poisonous insects to increase their toxicity and strength. Higher-level snakes need to devour the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to strengthen themselves.
Once the Gu Master and the Gu insect reach the legendary state of human-guine unity, that is, the human and the Gu will practice together, and the Gu will become stronger as the Gu Master's cultivation increases, and the Gu Master will also increase his strength through the Gu insect's growth.
However, it is too difficult to achieve this. Not only must the Gu insect's mental power be very compatible, but it may even be necessary to experience at least one life and death test with the Gu insect to be able to advance to the state of human-guine unity.
The point of being compatible with the Gu insect's mental power is difficult for most Gu Masters, and the life and death test is even more difficult.
The so-called life and death test means that in a life-and-death situation, the Gu Master suddenly explodes the potential in his body and survives this crisis with the Gu insect.
But if it were that easy, it wouldn't be called a life-and-death barrier.
Most of the snake masters would have a narrow escape when faced with such a crisis.
Besides, now is a peaceful and prosperous era. Even the
martial arts world is like a stagnant pool of water. There wouldn't be so much fighting and killing. In ancient times, there were more opportunities in times of chaos and more danger. When people were in a state where they could die at any time, they were more likely to stimulate their potential. This is why, a few hundred years ago, there were at least twelve masters who were both snakes and humans in the Yelang Kingdom.
"If I'm not mistaken, old man Ku Rong should have entered the ancient tomb of the king of the Yelang Kingdom. In the process of obtaining the formless bodhi, he should have broken through the life-and-death barrier." I murmured in a low voice.
Chu Jiu nodded upon hearing this: "So, it seems that Elder Ku Rong has been in the state of human-snake integration for quite some time."
Eighteen years ago, my master borrowed the Formless Bodhi from Elder Ku Rong, which means that Elder Ku Rong has had the Formless Bodhi for at least eighteen years, or even longer.
However, I didn't expect Elder Ku Rong to be able to endure for so many years after entering the state of human-snake integration and not take action until now.
"Could it be that old man Ku Rong is jealous of the old man of the Feng family?" I frowned secretly, then took a deep breath and asked: "Chujiu, what happened to the ancestor of your Feng family?"
"He passed away." Chujiu said with a gloomy look: "After the golden silkworm entered a dozing state, it cut off all contact with the old ancestor. The old ancestor was injured and could no longer get the golden silkworm's nourishment. The silkworm poison accumulated in his body for so many years also broke out instantly, and finally caused him..."
Chujiu paused at this point, and slowly lowered his head with red eyes.
And I was also shocked and stunned.
"Master Gu lives with Gu insects all day long. Over time, a lot of Gu poison will naturally accumulate. Under the suppression of the natal Gu, it has not exploded. But... if the natal Gu falls into a state of dozing, then the Gu poison accumulated in the body will instantly explode and backfire. By then, I am afraid that even the Daluo Jinxian will be unable to save it!"
It was not until then that I finally understood why Qin Jianing insisted on asking Elder Yu to bring the Yang Shen Pill.
It turned out that she had anticipated this!
"At such a young age, he has such superb medical skills and foresight. This first disciple of Master Yizima... is not simple!"
