55- Talent Sacrifice Gu!
The next day.
With a happy smile, Xiang Shuo walked over to Xiao San's house, he was excited to meet that old man in private and asked to refine a certain Gu worm.
After asking where the house was, he went straight there, but when he reached there, he was astonished and disappointed.
He was expecting an extravagant house that cannot be described in words, but the house was made of stones and was very simple.
'Is this really Elder Xiao San's home?' Xiang Shuo began to think that the person who had guided him home had deceived him.
But at this moment the door of the house opened and a beautiful girl came out and looked at his face for a while and then she asked but she didn't show a respectful attitude, "Are you Xiang Shuo?"
'Even a slave becomes brave when his master is very strong.' The corner of Xiang Shuo's lips trembled upon seeing this mortal girl showing no respect for him, who was a rank three Gu Master.
'I will ask Elder Xiao San if he can sell her to me, she is a beautiful girl I don't mind enjoying her body before killing her.' Xiang Shuo licked his lips and planned to teach this mortal a lesson she would never forget in her life.
But for now he answered her question, "Yes, it's me."
The girl led Xiang Shuo to a house.
"You can have some fruits while you wait. I'll go tell Elder Xiao San about your arrival." The girl looked at him indifferently and slowly walked outside, not seeming to be in any hurry.
Xiang Shuo looked around and did not find any fruit which made him curse the girl in his mind.
A quarter of an hour later, Xiao San appeared in front of him with a gentle smile, "Thanks for waiting, I hope I haven't been late for you for long. "
"I didn't wait for long and also the elder must have been busy with some important things." Xiang Shuo spoke very respectfully while admiring Xiao San's respectful attitude.
After the two sat down, Xiang Shuo sadly spoke, "I don't know why a strong and respectable person like Elder Xiao san would have a slave with bad manners."
"I advise the Elder to get a better slave, because a slave with bad behavior is not worthy of your position." Xiang Shuo sighed while complaining about the slave's bad behavior and then came to the main point, "So what do you think about selling this slave to me while you buy a better one?"
The old man blinked Bratbuck as if he didn't know what this young man was talking about, "But I don't have any slaves."
"what?!" Xiang Shuo looked at the old man in shock, "But what about the girl who greeted me in front of the house."
"Oh, you mean Liu Yin, she is the daughter of the clan leader." The old man smiled, "It's a good girl who visits me once in a while."
Upon hearing that that girl was the clan leader's daughter, cold sweat appeared on Xiang Shuo's back, 'No wonder she is behaving so arrogantly.'
'This idiot, it's good that Liu Yin controlled herself and did not kill him.' Liu Yang thought.
Yes, the one sitting in front of Xiang Shuo was Liu Yang himself, not the human path Gu worm he made yesterday.
"Then tell me why you want to meet me." Xiao San continued to show a gentle expression while looking at the young man in front of him.
"This is for you to refine my Gu worm." Certainly this is his main goal.
"You didn't have to ask to meet me for this, you could have asked the Liu Clan using the golden badge and I will refine this Gu worm for you later." Xiao San sighed.
"No, I need this Gu worm urgently and I want it to be refined as soon as possible." Xiang Shuo seriously spoke, if he requested this Gu worm from the Liu clan, it would take a month or more for him to get his turn to make Xiao San refine this Gu worm.
"Can you tell me the name of this Gu worm, its rank, and what its capabilities are?" Xiao San asked curiously.
"It's a rank three Gu worm but I can't tell you its name or its abilities." Xiang Shuo bowed slightly and apologized for not being able to provide much information.
"It's okay, I understand that." Xiao San nodded, "But you must at least give me the recipe, or else I won't be able to refine a Gu worm."
"Actually this is an incomplete recipe." Xiang Shuo took out the recipe and gave it to the old man. "I have searched for many refinement path Gu Masters to complete the recipe and refine a Gu worm, but no one has succeeded so you are my only hope."
"So you don't just want me to refine a Gu worm but you want me to complete the recipe." Xiao San took the information path Gu worm that contained the recipe, "You know this will cost you multiple times more than just refining a Gu worm."
"It's okay, I will pay you what you want if you can complete it and refine a Gu worm."
Hearing this, Xiao San sent some primeval essence within the Gu worm, and moments later, information flowed into his mind in large quantities.
Although Xiao San did not show any change in his expression, he was very happy while checking this incomplete recipe.
He casually flipped through a Gu recipe, with just one glance, the mortal Gu recipe completely revealed its profundities to Liu Yang.
Only by reading the recipe did he know the name and usage of the Gu worm.
Not only that, but Liu Yang could raise this Gu recipe to its most optimal level.
After all Liu Yang's attainment level in the refinement path is quasi-supreme grandmaster.
Talent Sacrifice Gu!
That was the name of this Gu worm.
Its ability is very simple, sacrificing a user's talent in order to temporarily raise the battle power.
The greater the sacrifice, the more powerful the user becomes.
This Gu worm is abnormally very useful and if its news falls into the hands of the clans, they will fight to obtain it.
If the clan fell into a crisis at some point, the clan that obtained this Gu worm could have one of its members sacrifice his/her talent in order to increase his/her battle power to get them out of that crisis.
But this Gu worm was especially useful for people like Xiang Shuo who had one of the Ten Extreme Physique.
Although people with one of these extreme physiques had the absolute highest talent, there were still some Negative.
The ten extreme physiques have the characteristic of overburdening the mortal aperture and can, at any time, explode, killing the Gu Master and causing significant damage to their surroundings.
This problem especially started when they reached a Rank Three Gu Master in their cultivation.
There are some solutions to this problem and one of them is decreasing their talent or aptitude, which is only temporary because, in due time, their aptitude would increase again.
So Xiang Shuo who was a time bomb wanted to disable this bomb by using Talent Sacrifice Gu.
Even though he didn't know that this was just a temporary solution, he could still use a Gu worm every time his talent returned.
Liu Yang's sister had the same problem since she had one of the ten extreme physiques, and this Gu worm was a good solution to her problem.
Liu Yang had thought of many ways to solve his sister's problem, but using Talent Sacrifice Gu was the best solution.
In fact, it was only because of this Gu worm that Liu Yang decided to change many of his plans.
"Elder Xiao San, is there a problem?" Xiang Shuo spoke anxiously upon seeing Liu Yang silent for a long time.
"No problem, I am just fascinated by this amazing recipe. It will be a great challenge to complete this recipe but don't worry I will definitely finish it." Xiao San laughed happily as if he was glad to see this recipe.
"Can you try to complete it as quickly as possible?" Xiang Shuo felt really happy but he was still worried that Xiao San would take so long to complete the recipe.
"Don't worry, I'll finish it in less than a month." The old man patted Xiang Shuo's shoulder.
Liu Yang let Xiang Shuo go, arguing that he had to concentrate in order to complete the recipe.
After a while, he walked out of this house and headed to the clan leader's house very quickly and as soon as he entered the house he took off his mask and then walked towards Liu Liu's whereabouts.
Once he saw his mother he hurriedly said, "There is a change of plans!"
"What? What do you mean?" She didn't understand what Liu Yang meant.
Liu Yang told her everything that had happened but that made her even more confused, "Although this Gu worm is useful to Liu Yin, But that has nothing to do with our next plans."
"You are wrong," Liu Yang smiled while pointing at her, "This Gu worm will benefit you."
Liu Liu gestured to him to finish what he wanted to say. "I will raise your talent from 99% to 100%, in other words I will make you obtain one of ten extreme physiques."
"How can you do this?" She showed some skepticism, "And can you do the same to yourself?"
"Every 99% A grade aptitude has the possibility of advancing to ten extreme physical aptitudes But I'm only 98% A grade aptitude, so the method I'm going to use will work for you, but it won't work for me." Then he started explaining that method to her.
The first step is to find someone with an extreme physique, and it has already been done.
The second step is to make the Gu House that was made by Liu Yang analyze the extreme physique.
After the analysis is completed, Liu Yang will use some materials that match the extreme physique, to upgrade 99% A grade aptitude to one of ten extreme physiques.
At least that's what he earned while studying extreme physiques.
There is a drawback in this method, which is the use of the person from whom the data was taken as a material as well.
This means that he would sacrifice a person who already had one of ten extreme physiques to create a person with one of ten extreme physiques.
In short, he told her that he would use Xiang Shuo to get her Boundless Forest Samsara Physique.
"But this will destroy our plans, I will not be able to become a Gu Immortal." Individuals with extreme physiques needs to ascend to immortality with the appropriate Immortal Gu for their extreme physiques (example: Great Strength True Martial must possess Strength Path Immortal Gu as vital gu to ascend as strength path gu immortal)
"I will find a solution to this, and if I can't do it in time, use Talent Sacrifice Gu for Decreasing your aptitude, and then begin your tribulation in Immortal Ascension." Liu Yang raised two fingers, "Or you can choose the second option, not decreasing your aptitude but ascend as a human path Gu Immortal instead of a wood path Gu Immortal."
After thinking for a while, She asked in doubt. "Where will you find Immortal Gu?"
"Did you forget this?" Liu Yang showed a gate-shaped Gu worm, the right door being red, and the left door black.
"But even if you go there, the probability that you will find an Immortal Gu is less than 1%, and the percentage of finding an Immortal Gu from the path we want is much lower." She is a little unconvinced.
"There's nothing to worry about because we won't lose anything. Like I said if we don't succeed you can use Talent Sacrifice Gu Or you can choose the second option." Liu Yang smiled, "But do you really want to miss this opportunity?"
