622: Fire Poison Palm (Perfect)

The Ning family.

As soon as Ning Buxiu returned, he saw Ning Jiushan and two others sitting in the main hall, their faces full of sorrow.

"What's wrong? Can't sell them?" Ning Buxiu seemed to have expected this.

"Ah, if it weren't for you, Xiuer, negotiating that deal with the County Office, our telephone industry might not have sold a single unit today."

Ning Jiushan said, shaking his head slightly, "What we sold today was just the 2863 units the County Office bought. ordinary people didn't buy many at all."

"That's right. I showed them how to use it, but the customers were still half-believing, half-doubting. The most common things they said were unreliable, will break, a scam. After a whole day, we only sold twenty to thirty units." Second Uncle was very tired after a day of sales.

It was mainly mental fatigue.

"This thing requires so much manpower and resources. In the future, we won't be unable to sell even a hundred units a day, will we?" Eldest Uncle Ning Qishan worried.

"It's definitely normal for the first day to be like this." Ning Buxiu smiled, as if everything was under his control.

He felt as if he had returned to his previous life, when he was holding meetings with his employees in the company.

Coincidentally, the internet brought to him by his System was the company he had worked so hard to manage in his previous life.

It was also this coincidence that gave Ning Buxiu the feeling of returning to his previous life.

"New things definitely need time for people to accept. Nothing can be achieved overnight, and this thing of ours is even more so."

"However, it is precisely because I understand the difficulty of the early stages of developing our telephones that I negotiated that deal with the County Office."

"This is an accelerator. If things go quickly, there will be a reaction in the next two days."

"Tell the craftsmen to work harder, lest we don't have enough to sell later."

Leaving this sentence, Ning Buxiu returned to his courtyard without much further explanation.

In the room.

Ning Buxiu sat on the bed, his head feeling a bit heavy.

His gaze fell upon his right arm.

Within the wrapped and covered cloth, upon closer inspection, a patch of horrifying white hair could already be seen!

The erosion of the Corpse Poison had reached a point where it had to be dealt with.

Taking a deep breath, Ning Buxiu placed the one hundred taels of gold obtained from the County Office beside him, and then opened the System panel.

On the personal panel, there was still only one Martial Art: Cangying Leg.

"I still need to at least grasp the basics of a Martial Art before I can add points." Ning Buxiu looked at the Martial Arts list beside him with a headache.

Huodu Palm: A poisonous palm External Cultivation. Cultivation requirements: Hands must be slapped and struck into blazing hot charcoal, extracting the heat from the fire and condensing it into the fingers and palms. Afterwards, both hands must be placed among poisonous creatures to be bitten. Only after the Fire Poison is generated can one be considered to have entered the basic level. This technique should not be easily Cultivated. Those with weak willpower risk their hands being completely crippled!

External Cultivation, this is the ruthlessness of External Martial Arts!

In fact, the Cangying Leg that Ning Buxiu possessed was no easier to Cultivate to success than the Huodu Palm.

An ordinary Child Cultivating Cangying Leg must first break the bones in their legs, apply medicine to heal them in a specific position, and then break them again!

Repeating this hundreds or thousands of times, until the bones adapt to this pain and grow, then they can practice the techniques within Cangying Leg. One wrong move and they will end up permanently disabled!

The original Host was just playing around, and the timeline for Cultivating Cangying Leg was very long. Only when he grasped the basics did he realize it was quite standard.

He opened the Huodu Palm manual.

After reading the Cultivation method in detail, Ning Buxiu turned his gaze to the gold beside him.

The money was ready, so he himself naturally couldn't fall behind.

"Bang bang, bang!"

Beside a pot of charcoal, Ning Buxiu was covered in sweat, his mouth twitching with pain as he slammed his hands into the charcoal in front of him!

Amidst the smell of burning, the feedback he received was extremely intense pain.

It even made him almost faint!

After hitting for a while, looking at the scabs on his palms and the streams of blood flowing out, Ning Buxiu felt a strange sense of comfort at this moment.

His hands were itchy and uncomfortable from the Corpse Poison's invasion, and the painful stimulation from the hot charcoal actually gave him a feeling of being neutralized.

Of course, this was all an illusion.

With such severe injuries to his hands, if he ignored them, after one night, Ning Buxiu's hands could be completely declared crippled!

"If it's just the basics, I should have reached it by now, right?" Ning Buxiu muttered to himself, his gaze turning towards a jar in front of him.

In the jar were poisonous Snakes, Centipedes, scorpions, Spiders...

"He's really crazy." In Ye Tian's eyes, he could see that after a slight pause, this Host directly put his hands into the jar!

Looking at the Host's pained expression, Ye Tian was slightly silent.

Rather than saying the Host was crazy, it was better to say this Host believed in his System.

After all, with such an action, apart from his System, no one had a way to help Ning Buxiu recover.

"Ding~ Congratulations Host, Huodu Palm comprehension (basics)."

Ye Tian's words appeared.

This sound made Ning Buxiu instantly withdraw his hands from the jar.

Amidst the pain, he also brought out a few poisonous creatures.

Glancing at his unrecognizable hands, the Man with pale lips opened the System panel's pay-to-win channel.

Host: Ning Buxiu

Martial Arts: Cangying Leg (Perfected), Huodu Palm (basics) +

Combat Power: 21

"Finally, I can add points." He muttered, looking at Huodu Palm: "System, max it out for me!"

"Ding~ Host consumed ten taels of gold, Huodu Palm elevated to basic level. Consumed twenty taels of gold, elevated to Huodu Palm First Layer. Consumed four hundred taels of silver, elevated to Huodu Palm Second Layer. Consumed seventy taels of gold, elevated to Huodu Palm Perfected."

On the panel before him, numbers appeared line by line, and the data changed in waves.

Elevating Huodu Palm to Perfected consumed a total of one hundred taels of gold and four hundred taels of silver, equivalent to fourteen hundred taels of silver.

Four hundred taels of silver among that was the money earned from the County Office buying telephones today.

As the money was consumed, Ning Buxiu could clearly see the tremendous changes occurring in his hands.

His originally heavily scarred and bloody palms.

Were continuously repaired during the successive upgrades. Under waves of tingling sensations, patches of new flesh grew.

Corpse Poison, insect poison, Snake poison, Fire Poison, under this transformation, they strangely merged together, turning into a completely new attack method!

"Whoosh~" With a slight movement of his fingers, as an invisible scorching energy condensed in his palms, the dead skin on his hands turned into flakes and fell off.

After a few breaths, a pair of hands like white jade appeared.

It was like returning to simplicity, returning to the beginning!

Except for the large amount of blood drawn last night, which made his face look a bit anemic, Ning Buxiu's physical condition at this moment had completely escaped his previous sickly state!

Even a certain curse lingering on his body in his semi-conscious state was forcibly dispersed by the surging vital energy brought by the Martial Arts upgrade!

If Cangying Leg was a third-rate Martial Art, then this Huodu Palm was a second-rate Martial Art.

Martial Arts like this second-rate one were rare in Five Directions City, but there were still some.

Generally speaking, if there were experts in Five Directions City, they would only be those who Cultivated second-rate Martial Arts.

But one of the finally recognized experts was Cang Poshi of the Ning family, a person who Cultivated a third-rate Martial Art.

The reason for this was that Martial Arts were too difficult.

Even if an ordinary person obtained a first-rate Martial Art, it would be extremely difficult to Cultivate it to success.

And being able to Cultivate a third-rate Martial Art to the extreme was already not easy.

At this moment, Ning Buxiu himself had Cultivated two Martial Arts to Perfected.

For an ordinary person, to Cultivate these two Martial Arts to Perfected, without any mistakes in between, would take at least thirty to forty years.
