Chapter 923: Half a Gut of Meat Tai Sui, Summoning the Golden Man to Suppress the Undying

The thugs of Dagukou were originally from the "porter" trade, pulling rickshaws, so they were considered half-insiders.

By the time they were pulled all the way to the Tianqing Pavilion and the messenger thug got off the rickshaw, he was already able to walk!

The few big thugs guarding the entrance were stunned as they watched him walk over while clutching his stomach; they had seen people draw a death lot to deliver a challenge, but never one who could return alive.

The rickshaw puller, who had watched the whole thing, originally wanted to help, but seeing this, his face turned deathly pale, and he ran off with his rickshaw in a flash.

The thug tied his belt and stumbled step by step into the pavilion.

The big thug Li Jinao was the first to support him, and Yuan Laosan just blurted out, "How did you come back alive?"

Li Jinao helped the man onto a chair and asked, "Brother, what happened?"

The thug untied his waist protector and said with a sobbing tone, "I... I left my guts back there! But the Profound Truth Sect, the Profound Truth Sect has evil arts!"

After saying this, he pulled out his intestines and showed the scriptures and the reply letter on them to Li Jinao.

The scripture was the "Meat Ganoderma Yu Yu Changsheng Record," and the reply was a letter agreeing to the duel at the Drum Tower, stating their methods and saying that those intestines were carved out by Wu Ya, a deacon of the Profound Truth Sect's Luo Temple.

"You thugs of Dagukou have no ability to see our Sect Master, so tomorrow, he, Wu Ya, will go to accept the challenge," and so on...

The old thug Zhang Sanzhi leaned forward while smoking his pipe, smacked his lips twice, and said, "This is a show of force against us!"

Another old thug was carried up and groaned twice: "I heard the Profound Truth Sect invited the Li family to be the Sect Master! The 'Profound Lord Seven Chapters Secret Scripture' is rumored to be the secret transmission of the Twelfth Sichen Profound Lord; no one knows what abilities it has. But the Li family has passed it down for six generations, and no one dared to covet it, which shows they are also ruthless characters!"

"If the Profound Truth Sect really has the ability to not die, what do we have to compare with them?"

Another old thug shook his head and sighed: "A powerful dragon crossing the river!"

Zhang Sanzhi asked with concern, "The three who were beheaded earlier..."

"Don't scare yourself. Not dying after being beheaded, what kind of cultivation is that?"

"This is already nearly non-human. Even a high-level expert at the fourth step of the Pill Realm couldn't do it. It must be a great cultivator who has cultivated the Primordial Spirit to leave the body and possess others, nearly reaching the Saint Realm of Immortality!"

Another old thug shook his head and said: "The Profound Truth Sect sent this gut to us just to test our ability. If we can't deal with it, there's no need to compare in this duel! We might as well just admit defeat."

"We who roam the Jianghu know that the tough fear the ruthless, and the ruthless fear those who don't fear death, but even those who don't fear death fear those who are evil and strange."

Li Jinao nodded: "Indeed, if this thing cannot be dealt with, it's better not to compare and just admit defeat. The ruthlessness of our brothers relies entirely on that one breath. If we see the Profound Truth Sect's methods on the spot and get scared, that breath will dissipate. The hearts of the people will be lost, and the heroic spirit of Dagukou will scatter!"

"That can't be!" Wang Haichuan was a bit doubtful.

Yuan Laosan sneered: "Do you even need to ask? Go to the door and look; how many who drew the death lot are hesitating now! You can't think when fighting ruthlessly; once you think, you get confused and scared. There's a rule after drawing the lot: you must nurture that one breath."

"Now the Profound Truth Sect sent this thing, clearly showing they won't die. Can the brothers fight ruthlessly against a group that won't die and doesn't fear death? Can they get past that in their hearts?"

The old thug shouted sharply: "Bring the oil vat!"

He held that section of intestine with two fingers, looked at the young thug who was still alive and well after having his intestines pulled out, and sighed: "It really is an evil art!"

"Give him water to drink!"

He ordered again.

This time he wanted to see how he could hold his water without intestines.

The young thug didn't even blink, tilted his head back, and drank three large bowls of salt water, but a mass of living flesh could be seen squirming in the bloody mess of his lower abdomen. The water went down from his stomach and was swallowed by that mass of living flesh.

"Tai Sui!" The old thug's face changed drastically: "It really is Tai Sui!"

Li Jinao stood up and called a thug to the side: "This thing is an immortal medicine wanted by the imperial court. Report it to the court first, and let's see how the Imperial Observatory and their Profound Truth Sect fight it out!"

The old thugs soaked the intestines in the oil vat, drew a Bagua with glutinous rice, and then lit a fire to fry it.

That section of meat intestine sank and floated in the oil pan, squirming like a tentacle, and began to eat the glutinous rice they sprinkled down.

The old thug called for a black dog to be brought over. It was raised by the thugs with secret medicine, specifically to eat human flesh, and raised to deal with zombies.

Three large black dogs were brought over and barked at the intestines in the oil pan.

They pulled out the intestines, only to see it was still a bloody mess, squirming without a single injury...

The old thug threw the intestines on the ground and let the three large black dogs fight for it.

But they saw the intestines squirming, drilling into the mouth of a black dog. Immediately, that black dog screamed, and the wailing sound scared the other two black dogs into tucking their tails.

But soon, that black dog's eyes turned blood-red, it spat out a black tongue, and roared as it bit its two companions to death.

It stared with a pair of blood-red eyes, looked back, and scared the thugs so much that none dared to step forward.

It was still the few big players; Li Jinao reached out and pressed down, and the blue bricks on the ground shattered. The place where the black dog was collapsed by three inches, and the black dog was pressed down to the ground.

The old thug stepped forward with a copper pipe, pried open its mouth, and twisted the scalding pipe inside the dog's stomach.

Seeing the black dog whose limbs had been crushed, its body suddenly made a crunching sound, and the bones under its thick dog legs were reassembled.

In the blink of an eye, its four large claws became like tiger claws, three or four times larger, bigger than a human fist!

The black dog's snout also became more prominent, biting the thick copper pipe in half, and it stood up under that mountain-tilting force.

The old thug gasped.

This move of Li Jinao was no secret in the Jianghu; it was the manifestation of the True Martial Dao path—Jin Ao Carrying the Mountain.

Li Jinao had gone through three tribulations and cultivated three mountains. The first weighed 185,000 jin, a copper mountain transported by a copper ship that sank into the Sancha River estuary. The second weighed 1,000,000 jin, a small iron mountain transported by overseas foreigners.

No one knew how heavy the last mountain was; they only knew that when Li Jinao had just cultivated it, he couldn't pass the Great Red Bridge, couldn't sit on a foreign ship, and walked back from the seabed step by step.

Li Jinao's face changed, and he pressed another mountain on top, pressing the black dog into a meat patty.

"This thing is not a zombie! Zombies have strong muscles and bones, but they aren't this evil..."

The old thug said solemnly: "A section of intestine can't be fried to death, a dog can't eat it, and even your manifestation supernatural power, Jin Ao, can't suppress it. I'm afraid that Wu Ya has really cultivated an undying body!"

"Jin Ao, how much longer can you suppress it?" Zhang Sanzhi asked.

Li Jinao shook his head: "This thing is very evil! I feel that without the third mountain, it won't last for the time it takes to burn a stick of incense before it adapts to the pressure of my supernatural power."

Zhang Sanzhi called for a box of charcoal to be brought over.

He took out a copper pipe again, took a deep breath at the charcoal, and saw the basket of charcoal burn out completely under this inhalation, with rolling sparks drilling into the pipe.

Immediately, Zhang Sanzhi inserted the pipe into the black dog's chest and exhaled violently.

Smoke with thick sparks came out of the pipe, and wherever it passed, any skin or flesh turned into charred ash...

More than half of the large black dog's chest was burned, its bones were crisp, and it was a black mess.

Just as Zhang Sanzhi breathed a sigh of relief, he saw the dead black dog suddenly struggle.

It jumped out from the bottom of the pit. Zhang Sanzhi waved his pipe and hit the black dog down, but when the black skin fell, it was empty—it was just a skin bag.

Before the crowd could react.

The half-section old thug lying on the chair next to them screamed, and a bloody thing tore open his chest and drilled inside in one go.

"This thing was hiding its strength; it only took half a stick of incense to break free from my supernatural power!"

Li Jinao looked at the few big thugs looking at him and hurriedly explained: "It shrunk the dog's muscles and bones into its chest and formed a small dog. The skin bag outside was just discarded flesh and blood. By shedding the useless flesh and blood, it became much lighter, so naturally, it could break free quickly!"

"Big Paralytic!" Zhang Sanzhi asked solemnly: "That thing drilled into your body, what does it feel like?"

The half-paralyzed old thug trembled and said: "That thing... I can't suppress that thing!"

After saying this, he lifted the mattress and pulled out five steel needles from under the sedan chair he was lying on. Only then did Li Jinao see that the paralyzed old thug's four limbs were broken, and someone had built a set of refined steel bones to piece them together.

The old thug used the steel needles to pierce through his own chest and abdomen, avoiding his internal organs, but trapped that squirming mass of flesh and blood in his chest. However, that thing showed no sign of moving at all.

The old thug became dazed instead, muttering: "I feel... it doesn't want to eat me, but wants to... complete me!"

After saying this, he pulled out the steel needle on his left shoulder with his backhand and raised his hand. He saw two refined steel rods and a wooden frame supporting it, and a layer of skin and flesh had grown shallowly on the hand carved from wood.

Zhang Sanzhi said in a deep tone: "Big Paralytic! That's not a good thing..."

Big Paralytic suddenly became excited: "How could I not know if it's a good thing? It doesn't want to harm me; it wants to be good with me. I'm alive, so it's alive too. It's the one that's close to me! Yu Yu Changsheng! Yu Yu Changsheng! I'm alive again... Hahahaha... Grandpa, I'm alive again!"

Big Paralytic laughed wildly, and the thugs nearby all felt a chill in their hearts.

Watching Big Paralytic stand up, pull out the steel needles one by one, and run around the pavilion, dancing and gesturing!

The few big thugs hesitated for a moment.

"What exactly is this thing? What kind of ghost is the Profound Truth Sect playing?"

At this moment, Li Jinao had to admit that he was scared!

The breath in his heart had dissipated!

If he went to fight the Profound Truth Sect again, he might be afraid...

Just at this moment, four old thugs carried out a large golden man from the back.

That fierce-looking golden man, without a trace of the dignity of a god or Buddha, but instead with a crooked mouth and squinting eyes, was heavy! The four old thugs had to pant heavily while carrying him.

The golden man rushed toward Big Paralytic, and before he could react, it pressed down on him.

Big Paralytic screamed, but was pressed firmly by a golden man. He shouted: "Xie Zushi, Xie Zushi! Have mercy, have mercy, I just want to live, I just want to live! Don't touch it, don't provoke it... Hahaha... Xie Zushi, what are you? You want it too? You want to fight me for it?"

"I know!"

"I know! You want to live too, hurry, don't let Xie Zushi get it. I'm still a living person, it's a dead person. If you get it, you'll all die!"

Listening to Big Paralytic's hysterical howling, the group of big thugs didn't know what to do.

Now the golden man clearly suppressed Big Paralytic, but as Big Paralytic said, that thing was too evil! After Big Paralytic got it, he just went crazy. If the thug who was forcibly poured into a golden man, Xing Xie Zushi, got it, no one knew what would happen.

Just a few words, and that thing made even Xie Zushi untrustworthy!

The few big thugs of Dagukou looked at each other, all seeing the chill in each other's hearts—what kind of ghost path did the Profound Truth Sect get?

How could there be such an evil thing?

Zhang Sanzhi said coldly: "Don't believe that thing! Nowadays, only the six Grandmasters can suppress these methods of the Profound Truth Sect!"

"The challenge can be compared, but since the Profound Truth Sect got the Undying Meat Tai Sui, if we really want to compare, we must compare it at the place of the six Grandmasters. Now it depends on whether the six Grandmasters can suppress them!"

"What if they can't suppress them?" Yuan Laosan couldn't help but interject.

Li Jinao lifted the hem of his long gown leisurely: "If they can't suppress them, let's just surrender!"

Big Paralytic begged: "Sanzhi, Laosan, you know me, this is me! That thing, as long as that thing is alive, it doesn't steal people's consciousness! I'm just a vulgar person, I just want to live well, live with sound limbs. The breath in my heart has long since disappeared! Now it's all pretended, just holding on. I've regretted it a hundred and eighty times in secret!"

"I don't harm people!"

"But that golden man, don't believe him! If he comes back to life, burn him to death, must burn him to death, he's not a person!"

The old thug wailed, and as he spoke, it was truly sincere. The old friends of several decades around him couldn't see a trace of falsehood.

"Big Paralytic..."

Zhang Sanzhi came to him and covered his eyes with one hand: "Go in peace!"

After saying this, he invited Big Paralytic, who was wailing under the golden man, and Xie Zushi into the back hall together. Several big thugs who had cultivated strange arts and old thugs took turns using their methods, but none could dissolve the mass of flesh and blood on Big Paralytic's chest.

At this time, the big thugs knew that unless they invited Xie Zushi out, they shouldn't even think about fighting the Profound Truth Sect! ===== CHAPTER 924 =====
