Chapter 122: Plague God Body 3
Wasting time was no different from chronic suicide.
Hearing Sun Zhongjing say this, what else could Dugu Bo say?
Alright. You're the expert; everything you say is right.
“Then what is the better solution?” Since it concerned him personally, Dugu Bo embraced the spirit of asking when in doubt.
“It’s very simple. You just need to make it so that poison can no longer harm you,” Sun Zhongjing said with a smile. “Although you possess the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King martial soul, your body does not have a physique like it that can easily withstand potent toxins. This is why you get poisoned after entering your Martial Soul Possession. The best solution is for you to possess the Myriad Poisons Immunity Physique, which can ignore the harm of potent toxins. This way, you will naturally be worry-free. You can even use potent toxins to strengthen yourself in turn.”
A Myriad Poisons Immunity Physique that ignores the harm of potent toxins?
Easier said than done. Does such an absurd physique truly exist in this world?
Dugu Bo’s expression was somewhat disdainful, but suddenly, he recalled the scene of Sun Zhongjing previously condensing his Jade Phosphorous Serpent King’s poison into a bead and consuming it. His heart instantly stirred. *Could it be that…*
“Could it be, Senior, that you possess a method for someone to cultivate the Myriad Poisons Immunity Physique?”
“I do indeed have such a method. What, you want to learn?”
Sun Zhongjing looked at Dugu Bo and unexpectedly nodded, saying, “Alright, I’ll teach you.”
“This… You’re really going to teach me?” “You’re not kidding, are you?”
Suddenly receiving such an answer, Dugu Bo found it a bit unreal. After all, a secret method for obtaining the Myriad Poisons Immunity Physique must be extremely precious. How could someone just casually teach it to others?
If Dugu Bo wasn’t absolutely certain that he was his father’s son, he would have suspected this expert before him was his real father.
【No way, is he really going to teach him?】
【An unrevealed secret like this, just casually taught to others?】
【No matter how you look at it, this seems fake…】
【Either he’s just toying with him, or he truly intends to teach…】
【Could there be some unknown reason?】
【…】
A series of bullet comments scrolled past.
The Dugu Bo in the real world also grew suspicious of the old man in the video, feeling as though the other party had some ulterior motive. Otherwise, why be so good to him?
In the video.
“Are you wondering why this old man would offer to teach you such an unrevealed secret so readily?” Sun Zhongjing seemed to have seen through his doubts and stated it plainly.
“Indeed.”
Dugu Bo nodded and answered honestly, “Senior, you and I are not related in any way, yet you are willing to impart such a secret method. It naturally makes this junior suspicious.”
“Hahaha…”
Sun Zhongjing immediately burst into hearty laughter. Finally, he said, “You can rest assured about this. I am only teaching you because it's rare to encounter such a promising prospect, and I wish to pass down my life’s knowledge.”
“You want to take me as your disciple?”
Dugu Bo’s expression was a bit subtle, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If it was a matter of discipleship, becoming his apprentice wasn't out of the question. After all, from any perspective, Sun Zhongjing was more than qualified to be his teacher.
“Taking you as a disciple won't be necessary.”
To his surprise, Sun Zhongjing shook his head and said, “This method is too extreme! If you wish to learn, what’s stopping me from teaching you everything I know? I’m just afraid you won’t dare to learn it.”
“I wouldn’t dare to learn?”
Hearing this, Dugu Bo’s competitive spirit was aroused. What kind of cultivation method could make the old man so certain that he wouldn’t dare to learn it?
“There’s nothing in this world that I wouldn’t dare to learn!” he said with immense confidence. “Senior, please, tell me. What exactly is so extreme about this method?”
“Hehe, don’t be so quick to make such bold claims.”
Sun Zhongjing smiled and shook his head, then his expression grew solemn. Looking at him, he said, word by word, “This method is named—Plague God Body!”
“Plague God Body?!”
Dugu Bo repeated these three words, inexplicably feeling a chill surge from the crown of his head throughout his entire body. It was simply because the word ‘Plague’ itself was not a good word, let alone with ‘God’ added after it.
Plague God!
Just from hearing the name, Dugu Bo felt as if he could sense its sinister nature.
【PLAGUE GOD!!!!】
【Could it really be related to a god?!】
【Could this old man be a god's inheritor?】
【Holy crap, is Poison Douluo really this lucky? Is he going to obtain a god's inheritance?】
【No way…】
A series of bullet comments scrolled past. Even the Dugu Bo in the real world watched the video nervously, waiting for what would happen next.
In the video.
“Is this related to a god?” Dugu Bo voiced the same question as the people in the live broadcast room, mistakenly thinking this was some secret method passed down from a deity.
“Of course not.”
Sun Zhongjing shook his head, denying it.
Dugu Bo was a bit disappointed.
“This Plague God Body can also be called the Virus Body!” Sun Zhongjing continued.
“Virus Body?” Dugu Bo was puzzled.
“That’s right. The key to cultivating this Plague God Body is to incorporate countless viruses into your own body…” Before Sun Zhongjing could finish, Dugu Bo exclaimed, “Isn’t that just courting death?!”
In a normal person's mind, if you're poisoned, you should naturally get rid of it as quickly as possible. Who would actively absorb poison into their body? If that isn’t courting death, what is?
“Don’t be hasty. Listen as this old man explains slowly.”
Sun Zhongjing stroked his long beard and said soothingly with a smile.
Dugu Bo calmed down slightly, looking at him and waiting for his explanation.
“Actually, you shouldn't view viruses as so terrifying. The human body is not as fragile as you imagine, either.” Sun Zhongjing stroked his beard and said leisurely, “Life is truly wondrous, possessing a unique adaptability. No matter how terrifying the poison, as long as one can survive it, over a long period of time, the body will adapt, eventually becoming completely immune to the harm from that toxin.”
“The cultivation process for the Plague God Body is actually like a patient with a severe illness! They must rely on their own immunity to gradually adapt and fight against the viruses in their body until they are completely immune! At this point, the person’s illness is naturally “cured.””
“Therefore, the cultivation of the Plague God Body begins by first absorbing viruses into the body, then gradually adapting and becoming immune to them. At that point, you must absorb new viruses to become sick again. Then adapt and become immune, then get sick again… Repeating this cycle will allow you to gradually become immune to all poisons.”
After hearing how the so-called Plague God Body was cultivated, Dugu Bo’s expression was complex. *Damn it, is this a method a human could even come up with? Actively get sick, and then actively make your body overcome the virus? Do I have nothing better to do? Wouldn’t it be better to just get rid of the virus directly?*
“Hehe, you shouldn’t underestimate this Plague God Body.”
Sun Zhongjing saw Dugu Bo’s disdain and said with a smile, “Over the years, not only will your body become impervious to all poisons, but you can even use a unique method to fuse those ‘viruses’ within you—the ones that can no longer cause you harm—with your own soul power, forming a unique Power of Sickness Demons!”
“You just need to continuously ingest new viruses, allowing the sickness demon within your body to devour them, and your soul power will rise accordingly!” As he spoke, as if to increase his credibility, he revealed his spirit rings for the first time.
One after another, spirit rings appeared… The entire hall was instantly enveloped in a dazzling, blood-red light!
“…”
Dugu Bo’s mouth hung wide open, as if he had seen something unbelievable.
Nine rings, all red!
This was the spirit ring configuration of Sun Zhongjing, who was over 150 years old.
