Chapter 2059: Chapter 2055: Orochi Technique
"Although the Tang Family is powerful, they ultimately have only one Nine-star Martial General. If we work with the Ancient Tang Sect and lend a small hand, we can eliminate them. But now, with just our two forces, we cannot deal with Yun Potian and Tang Haicang."
"Joining forces is the smartest strategy. Currently, all we lack for our Apocalypse Plan is the Son of Sunken Star, Moonfall Trace, and the Comet Cup to gather the key pieces for the plan."
...
Hearing the old men’s analysis, Mo Changtian nodded, "I will contact all the major forces. After being dormant for so long, it’s time for joint action. According to the Mo Family’s information system in the city, we’ve located the Comet Cup. Now, we just need to return the Moonfall Trace and Moon of Sunken Star to their places to begin."
"Go! When we attack the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect, we old bones will have to move once again."
The visitors exchanged sly glances and chuckled.
Just like this, after the great battle at the Imperial Capital Experimental Base, various forces in the martial arts world began to stir. They might ignore the Dragon Group’s fights with the foreign alliance army, but for their own goals, they had no intention of sparing the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect.
On a peak behind the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect headquarters, Tang Ming sat cross-legged opposite the old madman.
"Master, what exactly do you want to teach me that requires us to be so far from the sect?"
Tang Ming glanced at the distant sect grounds, "What you teach me couldn’t possibly be stolen by others."
"It’s not that I fear being stolen, but what I’m going to teach you is too terrifying. If practiced within the sect, it could easily destroy the whole sect."
The old madman gave Tang Ming a sideways glance.
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
Tang Ming asked skeptically.
"Hmph, do you know how, back when I was a Seven-star Martial Master, I managed to repel the siege of many experts sent by major forces in the martial arts world?"
The old madman snorted, stared seriously at Tang Ming, and said, "At that time, the various forces sent many high-level martial generals, including dozens of Five-star and Six-star Martial Generals, and even a few Eight-star Martial Generals, whose strength exceeded mine."
"Hiss! A few Eight-star Martial Generals leading a group of generals surrounded a Seven-star, you must have relied on the mystical aspects of the Huaxia Secret Technique to defeat them."
Tang Ming said earnestly.
"Although the Huaxia Secret Technique is powerful and allows you to defeat stronger enemies in one-on-one situations, it was insufficient to resist when I was besieged by a group."
The old madman sighed.
"So, Master, you must know some other even more formidable martial arts?"
Tang Ming’s eyes lit up, looking at the old madman expectantly.
"Indeed, but I’ve only used this martial art twice. Once was during the siege by those martial arts elites, the second was when I was ambushed by Li Miaokong. Had I not used it then, I might have died when I fell off the cliff."
The old madman looked at Tang Ming with a solemn expression, "I haven’t taught you this martial art because it’s too damaging to the cultivator, and I have only used the First Layer."
"No way! Even with your power, you’ve only used one layer. How many layers does this martial art have?"
Tang Ming asked incredulously.
"There are eight layers in total, and I don’t even know who created this martial art. I found it by chance in an ancient tomb. According to records, those who fully utilized this martial art... all died, which is why it was lost."
"No way! What kind of martial art is so terrifying?"
Tang Ming was taken aback. Practicing martial arts to death—could this martial art easily lead to deviation?
"This martial art is called the Orochi Technique."
Yun Potian took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "It’s a terrifying Cultivation Technique that relies on self-destruction to enhance cultivation. When perfected, even a One-star Martial General could confront a peak Martial General."
"This is a bit too much."
Tang Ming was wide-eyed with disbelief, "A One-star Martial General being able to contend with a peak Martial General, that’s too defying of the heavens."
"The so-called Orochi Technique is actually a Forbidden Technique that violates the principles of martial arts cultivation. Even ordinary people using it could wield great power, though the cost is equally great."
Yun Potian nodded and proceeded to explain in detail.
The Orochi Technique is about unleashing channels within the human body that bind True Qi, to gain immense power.
Each ’Layer’ of the Orochi Technique represents one layer of the Cultivation Technique, and each successive layer doubles the cultivation compared to the previous one, but each layer inflicts damage on the body. Once all eight layers are unleashed, the cultivator will die after the battle, or even be unable to hold on partway through the battle.
The Orochi Technique is an art of releasing the excess energy by lifting the body’s restrictions on True Qi.
Even for martial generals, the meridians in the body run along specific routes, but some hidden meridians must not be touched. Recklessly touching them can cause light damage or severe deviation, paralysis, or sudden death.
The Orochi Technique precisely targets these hidden meridians to gain enormous power against common sense.
"One layer doubles the cultivation each time? Isn’t that terrifying?"
Hearing these words, Tang Ming couldn’t help but exclaim. Perhaps it initially doubles the cultivation, but once accumulated, it’s absolutely terrifying.
"It’s so terrifying. Even I used only one layer, and my cultivation doubled enough to repel the martial arts elites who besieged me back then."
Yun Potian nodded solemnly, speaking with dread, "The First Layer doubles the power, the Second is four times, the Third is eight times, the Fourth is sixteen times, the Fifth is thirty-two times, the Sixth is sixty-four times, the Seventh is 128 times, and the Eighth is 256 times... Imagine a One-star Martial General’s cultivation increasing over two hundred times, what kind of concept is that?"
"I..."
Tang Ming’s mouth twitched, "This martial art is too abnormal. A One-star Martial General’s cultivation increasing over two hundred times surely qualifies to battle high-level Martial Generals."
"Of course, despite its power, its side effects are equally terrifying. Once all eight layers are opened, the cultivator will undoubtedly die."
Yun Potian took a deep breath, looking at Tang Ming with a complex expression, "The reason I was so easily taken by Li Miaokong back then, besides the ambush by the Li family siblings, is because after using the Orochi Technique to resist the martial arts siege, I was heavily injured and hadn’t recovered.
Later, when I fell off a cliff, my legs were crippled from using the Orochi Technique a second time, otherwise, Li Miaokong alone wouldn’t have left me disabled for so many years."
"Cough, cough! Master used only one layer with such huge side effects, the subsequent layers must be even more terrifying?"
Tang Ming coughed lightly.
