Tomb Raiding: The Bloodline of Dragons and Snakes, Starting from the Kunlun Divine Palace

It resembles a newly born spotted baby snake.

It still feels slightly hot to the touch.

After a short while, the spotted snake gradually disappeared under the skin.

If the body enters a state of excitement, it will then manifest itself.

At the same time, Wu Yutian felt that his physical strength had increased several times over.

I now have a physique like Leng Feng, the male protagonist in the movie "Wolf Warrior".

And even stronger combat power!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully activated the Tengshe bloodline. Bloodline purity: 10%!]

[Obtained the bloodline cultivation technique, "Dragon and Serpent Heart Method"!]

"Snakes and dragons are indeed from the same family!" Wu Yutian thought to himself with secret delight.

Chapter 3: Luring Big Gold Tooth to Gamble on Jade! Please rate this chapter! Please give me flowers!

After integrating the "Dragon and Snake Heart Method", Wu Yutian felt the mysterious Qi between heaven and earth.

This is not something that ordinary martial arts practitioners can comprehend.

This is generally something that can only be experienced through Taoist traditions, similar to how Uncle Jiu cultivated the Golden Light Mantra.

The Dragon and Snake Heart Method and the Golden Light Mantra are similar in principle.

Internal Qi is also known as Yuan Jing.

It existed in the chaos millions of years ago.

After the creation of heaven and earth, Qi also flowed into the vast world.

And those antique artifacts and mysterious creatures are precisely those that attract Qi, thus revealing their extraordinary nature.

Judging from the practice of the "Dragon and Snake Heart Method", it can be roughly divided into four levels.

These are respectively: dragon arms and snake waist, dragon god and snake shape, wind and lightning strike, and the legendary rain-summoning and elephant-swallowing.

With dragon-like arms and a snake-like waist, one has just completed the initial stage of cultivation and can mobilize Qi to make one's arms as strong as a dragon and one's waist as supple as a snake.

With the body of a dragon and the movements of a snake, having achieved minor success in cultivation, its defense is as strong as a dragon's, and its attack as swift as a snake's.

As for the wind and lightning strikes and the rain that swallows elephants.

Wu Yutian cannot sense it yet.

Because I am currently only in the early stage of cultivation, I can only sense the effects of the dragon body and snake form at most.

Roughly speaking, the first level belongs to modern kung fu combat skills.

The second level is similar to a top master in a low-level martial arts world.

The third and fourth levels lead to the world of high martial arts, where martial arts cultivation achieves abilities similar to those in fantasy immortal cultivation.

To level up, one must cultivate using the Qi of heaven and earth.

This allows the Tengshe bloodline to unleash its full power.

Wu Yutian sat cross-legged and circulated the Qi within his body according to the "Dragon and Snake Heart Method".

All of a sudden.

The small snake with a spotted pattern that had just disappeared on his chest reappeared.

His blood was boiling, and a halo of light, as if carrying electric energy, appeared around his body, constantly rising upwards.

Accompanied by a gurgling sound, it's like it's filling your whole body with energy.

A few minutes later.

Not only did I not feel tired, but I was full of energy.

Wu Yutian glanced at the calendar on the table.

1983 10 Month 21 Day.

Based on this timeline...

The tomb-raiding trio of Hu Bayi, Shirley Yang, and Fatty Wang should have just returned from the Insect Valley in Yunnan and were preparing to head to the Kunlun Shrine.

As for Uncle Ming Lei Xianming, he should already be planning this in Tiandu.

I can't raid tombs by myself now; I have to work with the best team.

Although his third brother, Wu Sansheng, was also one of the leading figures in the tomb raiding world at that time.

However, he did not possess the key items needed for his journey to the Kunlun Divine Palace: the Muchen Pearl and the Heavenly Book of the Demon Kingdom.

Therefore, they didn't invite Wu Sansheng, the third brother who was still in Hangzhou, to participate.

The next day.

Big Gold Tooth sneaked through Panjiayuan.

They were in a hurry, not even glancing at the roadside stalls, seemingly on their way to pick up someone.

"Big Gold Tooth!" Wu Yutian called out as he stepped out, holding a yellow-skinned stone in his hand.

At first glance, it looks like a smooth pebble that hasn't been washed away yet, but those in the know will immediately recognize it as a piece of raw jade.

"Grand opening specials! Interested in coming and have some fun?"

"This?" Big Gold Tooth was immediately glued to the jade stone, unable to move his feet.

But I don't want to go there, because I have a hobby of gambling on stones.

However, he has been having bad luck lately, winning less and losing more, which is why Wu Yutian beat him to it and opened an antique shop in this prime street corner location.

Meanwhile, Big Gold Tooth himself was still holed up in a cheap house in a remote alley, relying on regular customers to do some business.

"I'm not playing anymore, I've been having bad luck lately." Big Gold Tooth gritted his teeth, wanting to leave.

“We’re old friends, so how about I give you a discount and cut it for free?” Wu Yutian instructed his shop assistant to pile nearly a hundred pieces of raw jade stones, which had been transported from Myanmar and Yunnan, directly onto the stall at the entrance of the shop.

Tourists on the antique street immediately gathered around; this was a very exciting entertainment activity on the antique street.

Gambling on jade.

Also known as "gambling on stones".

It is an ancient way of trading jade materials.

They traded potentially jade-containing minerals for a hefty sum, and after the deal was struck, they made a single cut.

There is a possibility of finding jade of extremely high quality, which could make the buyer extremely wealthy.

Or it could mean losing everything.

For those who gamble on jade, it's a gamble on their vision and luck.

"Hmph, there's definitely no jade in this piece you're letting me cut open for free." Big Gold Tooth didn't believe Wu Yutian would give him such a big bargain.

"I'm in business by reputation. I personally went to Myanmar and Yunnan to buy this batch of jade rough for 50,000 yuan." Seeing that more and more customers were gathering, Wu Yutian asked his employees to maintain order while he picked up a loudspeaker and started shouting.

"Our Hidden Dragon Pavilion is having a grand opening sale today! I guarantee that among these hundred rough stones, there will definitely be some fine jade!"

"And the total value must be no less than 50,000 yuan! If the total value is less than 50,000 yuan after all the draws are completed today, I will give the first place a bonus of 50,000 yuan!"

"One hundred rough stones, five hundred yuan for one opening! Mr. Shi Zhongyu from the jade shop next door will personally appraise them for everyone. If you want to sell them for money, you can sell them directly to their shop!"

As Wu Yutian spoke, an elderly man dressed in a black Zhongshan suit with gold dragon patterns walked to the front of the stage with two of his subordinates.

This is equivalent to the referee and dealer in a casino. The appearance of such a respected elder as a third party serves as a guarantee of credibility to prevent Wu Yutian from committing fraud.

Big Gold Tooth couldn't hold back any longer and started blowing air into his hands and rubbing them vigorously.

"I refuse to believe my luck won't turn around!"

"Come on, let's have our old partner from Hidden Dragon Pavilion, Boss Jin with the big gold teeth, give us the first cut!"

"The first cut is free!"

“Then it’s settled, I won’t open the one you’re holding, there’s definitely no jade inside!” Big Gold Tooth’s real name is Jin Wantang, so Wu Yutian calls him Boss Jin in front of everyone.

“No problem, you can choose any of the rough stones.” Wu Yutian put the one he was holding back. “No restrictions on technique, you can use any instrument, as long as it doesn’t damage the stone!”

"Then you'll regret it!" Big Gold Tooth laughed smugly, pulling out something that looked like a flashlight from his pocket.

"This?" Wu Yutian saw that he was about to install the equipment. "Fine! A promise is a promise! If you cut the best jade in one go, I'll admit defeat!"

Wu Yutian had a resolute and determined expression.

Everyone started pointing and whispering about Big Gold Tooth.

"Boss Jin's device is definitely not simple."

"This isn't fair! This is bullying Boss Wu!"
