Mechanical Pioneer Under One Person

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Gluttony sneered and blocked the intrusion with just one hand.

It seemed that the elephant's trunk had just drunk enough blood from the river. It shook its body, and its head changed back to a lion's head. The elephant's trunk on its chest fell off, and its abdomen instantly turned into a huge green mouth.

It blocked several attacks in succession, and during the interval, it reached its hand into the huge mouth in its abdomen, fumbled around a few times, and pulled out a broad and fierce knife.

Gluttony laughed and said, "Xingyiquan? You're practicing it poorly, and you dare show off your skills in front of an expert?"

After saying that, it turned around, did two consecutive somersaults, swung the sword in both hands, made two big diagonal chops, and then followed up with a powerful move to chop Huashan, chopping at the black tube's head.

Black Tube repeatedly leaned sideways, circulated Qi to stimulate bones, changed his posture, pressed close to the enemy, and with an eagle-grabbing hand, he grabbed Gluttony's left wrist and used the force to punch him several times in the chest.

Overeating didn't hurt at all. He shook his upper body to disperse the hidden force that the clarinet had hit his chest. He freed one hand and made a chopping and hanging palm gesture, grabbing the clarinet's arm.

Clarinet quickly leaned back, but in his haste, his left shoulder was still rubbed by the gluttony. Feeling something strange on his shoulder, he retreated more than thirty steps.

Gluttony did not rush to chase, but kicked the knife with one foot, took advantage of the momentum, and dragged the knife forward with a whooshing sound.

Clarinet covered his left shoulder and twisted it with Qi for a long time before suppressing the pain. He was secretly shocked.

"Hanako's arm-lifting technique and the chopping palm, and..."

He looked at the huge belly of Gluttony, and seemed to have an idea in his mind. He changed his posture and rushed forward again.

Hei Guan first dodged the attack from the dragging knife, then kicked forward, blocked the weapon, gathered all the energy in his body, and launched a powerful punch.

Bang!

The punch was so powerful and fierce that Gluttony couldn't help but groan. He quickly used his skills, leaned back and thrust his abdomen, letting the huge mouth in his navel suddenly open wide, like a city gate, and bit directly at the black pipe.

But when he was halfway through biting it, he saw a stick coming from the left and a shield flying from the right.

Boom!

The big mouth sticking out from the abdomen poked Gluttony's cheeks on both sides, causing him to scream in pain and he could only quickly avoid it.

Because it saw the monkey performer use the "White Cloud Covering the Top" move again and hit him on the head.

clang!

Gluttony quickly took a stance and raised his sword to respond, but Wang Zhenqiu pressed the sword with his stick and used a move called "Looking Back at the Moon", which hit him directly on the forehead, half of his stratum corneum was broken.

Bang!

Sean also made a signature 'red card' sliding tackle and kicked directly at Gluttony's calf, causing it to crack with a sound.

Hit on the head and legs, Gluttony snorted coldly, ready to endure the pain and swing his sword to slash around, exchanging injuries for injuries.

But as soon as it stood up, it had to abandon its sword and jump on one leg to avoid it. It turned out to be the same place from before. Four king snakes had appeared out of nowhere and were spitting out their tongues.

But as soon as it landed, six ferocious wolves pounced out from behind and bit its head and limbs.

The anger on its face could no longer be concealed. It opened its huge mouth, stretched out its tongue, and used the barbs on its tongue to scrape off the skin and flesh of the wolfhounds!

Gluttony glanced around and finally realized that the situation was not right, so he jumped into the air, shook himself, and changed his bird head again.

The huge mouth on its abdomen turned into the wings of a roc on its back, and it flapped its wings repeatedly and flew towards the alchemy furnace.

Seeing this, the clarinet shouted, "Not good!"

Although this was the first time that the temporary workers were working together, they had a lot of experience with each other. When they saw each other flying straight towards the alchemy furnace, they all became alert.

“Swoosh!!~~”

Not far away, Lao Meng made a circle with his hands, gathered all the Qi in his body, sent it into his mouth, and blew it hard.

Dozens of bird-headed monsters who were fighting dogfights with Liu Ke's armor in the air, heard the whistle and suddenly turned around and rushed towards Gluttony as if they had taken a love drug.

This desperate impact caused bird feathers to fly everywhere, and it was impossible to tell whose feathers fell.

There are several thousand "little demons" in this [underground palace], all of whom are fellow travelers collected from all over the world during the past few decades of Gluttony.

On weekdays, it taught its 'brothers' how to turn monsters into domesticated ones, share wine and meat, and use longevity as its slogan. The stomachs of the 'little monsters' it raised all turned into meatballs.

At the critical moment, these are the new forces that go into the furnace to make medicine.

But now, these "best buddies" have been enslaved by a beast trainer because of the skins used to make animals. They are trying their best to stop him, which really makes Gluttony very angry.

Even though he was reluctant, Gluttony had no choice but to resort to the chopping method.

With just a few moves, it found the weaknesses of its 'good brothers', ripped open their chests and stomachs, tore off a bunch of feathers, and without wasting any, took out the meatballs they had been nurturing for years and ate them.

Then he quickly dodged to avoid the huge palm print falling from the sky.

Bang!

When the palm hit the ground, it created a huge hole more than ten meters deep.

Gluttony's brows twitched in confusion, and he blinked several times before realizing that this was the 'One Smash, One Break' move of the Great Compassionate Hand.

It looked back and saw a fierce man with red eyes rushing towards it.

The gluttonous bird head let out a long roar, and flapped its wings behind it. It no longer dared to stay and continued to fly straight towards the alchemy furnace.

Chapter 85 Dansheng

Want to know why gluttony makes elixirs?

All they want is - immortality.

All the schools of supernatural beings in the world will emphasize one key point when teaching their disciples basic knowledge - when the innate qi dissipates, people will die.

How long is a man's life? It passes like morning frost. Time never comes again, and the sun never shines again.

Perhaps, the masters of these sects said these words only to encourage their disciples to cherish time and make progress in their practice.

However, just as flowers bloom in a million different ways, so do people. Everyone understands words differently, and there will always be some who misunderstand the key points of the words.

Gluttony was one such person. He desired immortality more than he practiced the Dharma. This drive for immortality made him so diligent in his practice.

But some things cannot be achieved by just hard work.

No matter how he deceived himself with gluttony, his Qi stopped increasing after he entered middle age and instead began to slowly decrease.

No matter how focused and dedicated he was to cultivating his life, he was slowly moving towards death.

He thought he could live to be in his seventies or eighties? Or maybe even a centenarian?

For many people, the age when they are content is unacceptable for overeating.

So, he finally gave up the useless struggle and truly began his fanatical pursuit of immortality.

But after a long time, he still got nothing and saw no hope of immortality.

Xuanmen, Buddhism, the West, evil sects...

He has participated in countless organizations and met countless geniuses, but he has never seen anyone who can truly achieve immortality.

Until one day, when he was already old, he realized a new truth through books and combined it with reality - longevity can actually rely on "external things".

……

In the past, practitioners compared the heart and lungs to monkeys, which control the human mind and represent yang.

The liver and kidneys are compared to pigs, which control the seven emotions and six desires and are yin.

The spleen and stomach are called "Sha Monk" and they harmonize yin and yang.

The monkey, pig and monk are also known as the Golden Man, the Wooden Mother and the Yellow Woman, corresponding to lead, mercury and cinnabar. The one who controls these three elements of alchemy is called the Tripitaka.

Looks familiar, doesn't it?

The settings and names of the main characters in the famous "Journey to the West" seem to be created in accordance with the knowledge of cultivation.

In that story, the 81 difficulties encountered by Tang Monk and his disciples can basically correspond to the hardships encountered on the path of cultivation.

This method of "metaphor" and "personification" has led many people to believe that "Journey to the West" is just a collection of knowledge that uses vivid and interesting stories to describe the difficulties on the path of spiritual practice.

But, is this wonderful book really just [knowledge] and [stories]?

Gluttony doesn't think so, it regards "Journey to the West" as a "documentary".

After all, there really was a "Tripitaka" in the ancient Tang Dynasty, so who can say that the monkey, pig, and monk Sand are not real?

After many years of careful study, Gluttony finally came to a different understanding.

In "Journey to the West", monsters want to eat people, and gods who come down to earth also want to eat people.

Sha Seng eats people, Jinjiao and Yinjiao also eat people, Shituoling eats people, Kuimu Wolf eats people, and Shouxinggong’s mount also eats people.

Why do people eat humans? What's so delicious about humans?

This question tempted him until he ate a human being for the first time, a living human being.

After that, he understood...

Why can humans be called the spirit of all things?

……

I almost forgot what it felt like when I ate it for the first time.

It only remembered that the meat was a little fishy and tasted hard to swallow.

However, when the meat is digested in the stomach, the Qi circulates many times faster.

Although it was evil, just one bite was enough to offset his hard work and diligence in practicing for several days, and even the remaining innate Qi in the flesh was absorbed into his body.

It finally understood why the demons and gods in Journey to the West had to eat humans.

Nothing more than eating humans can prolong life...

Now that the method of immortality has been found, Gluttony, as a pursuer of immortality, naturally wants to try it, but it discovers problems in the process.

If you simply want to improve your spiritual cultivation and magical powers, just eat a piece of human flesh.

But if you want true immortality, the situation is different.

As the saying goes, no one is perfect, and everyone has flaws in this mortal world.

The innate Qi that is "eaten" into the stomach through unconventional means will eventually dissipate over time.

Even if it eats people day and night, it is still the same. After all, it is not Tang Monk's flesh, and it cannot achieve true immortality.

Finally, after traveling for decades, joining countless evil organizations, and witnessing all kinds of magical methods, it finally came up with a theory and compiled a recipe for elixir.
