Chapter 220 Hot Pot Recipe
Jiang Mo waved his hand: "No need to thank me, you deserve it."
By the end of the hot pot banquet, the primordial Gu in Chen Duo's body had been completely removed.
Zhang Chulan and Wei Duoduo's Qi also saw a significant improvement.
"Brother, I feel my Qi is at least 30% stronger than before!"
Zhang Chulan exclaimed excitedly, "This is simply amazing!"
Jiang Mo smiled and nodded: "This is just an upgrade, if you can stick to eating this 'All Poisons Hot Pot' once a month."
"Your Qi power will experience a qualitative leap in one year."
"Really?" Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up. "Big brother, you have to teach me how to make this kind of hot pot!"
Jiang Mo smiled and shook his head: "The processing and proportioning of the ingredients for this hot pot are very complicated and cannot be learned in a short time."
"Moreover, some key materials can only be obtained through special channels."
Seeing Zhang Chulan's disappointed expression.
Jiang Mo added, "But don't worry, I'll make it for you regularly."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan beamed with joy again: "That's wonderful! Big brother, you're simply my savior!"
"Alright, the hot pot feast is over. You should catch your train now," Jiang Mo reminded him.
Zhang Chulan glanced at the time and realized it was indeed getting late. He quickly stood up to say goodbye, "I'll be going now, Big Brother, Wei Duoduo, Chen Duo, see you next time!"
After seeing Zhang Chulan off, Jiang Mo looked at Chen Duo and asked, "How are you feeling?"
Chen Duo smiled and nodded: "It's never been this good."
"I feel so much lighter, like I've been rid of a heavy burden."
Jiang Mo nodded in satisfaction: "That's good. What are you planning to do next?"
"Should I go back to working for the company, or live a normal life?"
Chen Duo pondered for a moment, then raised her head, her eyes resolute: "I want to continue working at the company and use my abilities to help more people."
Jiang Mo nodded: "Okay, I'll talk to General Manager Zhao and arrange a suitable job for you."
After seeing Wei Duoduo and Chen Duo off, Jiang Mo stood alone by the window, looking at the night outside.
His lips curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.
He successfully helped Chen Duo break free from the shackles of the Primal Gu, giving her a new lease on life.
Jiang Mo felt that the feeling of helping others was much better than she had imagined.
"Perhaps, this is the meaning of my coming into this world," Jiang Mo murmured to himself.
However, he did not bask in this sense of accomplishment for long.
He knew that as his strength increased and his reputation grew, so too would his future be bright.
More people and forces will notice him, and more trouble will come his way.
But none of this matters.
The important thing is that he now has a clear goal and direction.
It's not just about self-preservation and becoming stronger, but also about leaving your mark on this world and helping those in need.
In the early morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains, making it warm and bright.
Jiang Mo opened his eyes, feeling the abundant power within his body, and couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.
The primordial Gu absorbed from Chen Duo last night has completely integrated into his body and become part of his power.
"Is this the body of the Gu God?"
Jiang Mo murmured to himself, feeling the fusion of the surging Gu power and Qi within his body.
The memories he gained from the stone statue told him that the true body of the Gu God could perfectly fuse Gu and Qi.
This allows the two forces to complement each other, reaching a level that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Now, his body has begun to exhibit the characteristics of a Gu God's body.
It can harmlessly absorb and transform the power of various toxins and Gu worms.
"However, it's still far from being a true Gu God's body."
Jiang Mo chuckled self-deprecatingly, then got up and began his morning cultivation.
According to the method recorded in the "Gu Jing", one should circulate the Qi in the body and guide the primordial Gu to travel through the meridians.
Under his control, the Gu worms continuously cleansed and expanded his meridians.
This makes the flow of Qi smoother and the power more concentrated.
An hour later, Jiang Mo opened his eyes, feeling full of energy.
"The results are good," he nodded in satisfaction. "These primordial Gu worms are indeed a great help in cultivation."
Just as he was about to continue his cultivation, his cell phone suddenly rang.
It was Zhao Fangxu's phone call.
"Mr. Jiang, do you have time to come over?"
On the other end of the phone, Zhao Fangxu sounded somewhat urgent, "I need your help with something."
Jiang Mo frowned slightly: "What happened?"
"It's about Elder Helian," Zhao Fangxu said in a low voice.
"We found something among his belongings that may be related to the Gu God."
Jiang Mo's expression hardened: "I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Mo immediately got up, packed his things, and headed to the company headquarters.
Company headquarters, Zhao Fangxu's office.
When Jiang Mo walked in, Zhao Fangxu was reviewing documents at his desk with a serious expression.
"Mr. Jiang, you've arrived." Zhao Fangxu looked up and immediately gestured for Jiang Mo to sit down. "The situation is a bit complicated."
Jiang Mo sat down in the chair opposite Zhao Fangxu: "Mr. Zhao, what did you discover?"
Zhao Fangxu took out a file and handed it to Jiang Mo: "This is a secret file we found at Elder Helian's residence."
"It contains some legends and secrets about the Gu God."
Jiang Mo took the file and began to carefully read through it.
The archives contain detailed records of the legends and history of the Gu God, as well as the various Gu techniques created by the Gu God.
One passage in particular caught Jiang Mo's attention:
"The body of the Gu God is the master of all Gu, capable of absorbing all poisonous Gu in the world for its own use."
"The path of cultivation requires tempering the body with poison and nourishing one's vital energy with gu (a type of poison) in order to achieve great success."
"With each type of poisonous insect absorbed, the speed of cultivation will double, until the state of unity between Qi and insect is achieved."
“Interesting,” a strange light flashed in Jiang Mo’s eyes, “This confirms my guess.”
Zhao Fangxu asked curiously, "What guess?"
Jiang Mo closed the file and looked up at Zhao Fangxu: "Regarding how to quickly increase the cultivation speed of the Gu God Body."
"According to the records, the cultivation of the Gu God Body requires the continuous absorption of various poisonous Gu."
"Each time you absorb a type of poisonous insect, your cultivation speed will double."
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhao Fangxu's eyes: "So, what kind of help do you need?"
Jiang Mo smiled slightly: "I need all sorts of rare poisons and Gu worms, the rarer the better."
“This…” Zhao Fangxu pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"The company can provide some, but the quantity and variety are limited."
"However, I do know of a place where there are abundant rare poisons and Gu worms."
"Where?" Jiang Mo asked immediately.
"In the southwestern border region, there is a place known as 'Poison Valley'."
Zhao Fangxu explained, "That place is shrouded in poisonous fog year-round, and it's home to all sorts of strange poisonous creatures and Gu worms."
