Xin simply took a sip of cherry blossom tea and said calmly, "Nether Hand is refined through acquired means. Of course, when used in conjunction with my disciple's Spirit, the effect is even better."
"Acquired refinement?"
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes, and he understood the meaning: "Since this Nether Hand can absorb external poisons for one's own use, if a Spirit Master already possesses poison within themselves, would learning it allow them to absorb and expel their own toxins?"
"Naturally, that is also possible."
"Really?!"
Xin glanced at Dugu Bo calmly and nodded: "The reason Nether Hand is called Nether Hand is because once these hands are cultivated to mastery, even in hell, they can snatch life from the Netherworld Reaper. What mere mortal poison cannot be cleared?"
Upon receiving Xin's reply, Dugu Bo's heart was shaken. He had personally witnessed Xin effortlessly disperse his Bi Lin Serpent Poison and revive the vitality of cherry wood with a mere raise of his hand. He no longer hesitated and spoke respectfully.
"I am willing to purchase the cultivation method for Nether Hand with a hefty sum. Please name your price, Dean Xin!"
"Not for sale." Xin shook his head and refused; he was not short of money now.
Although Rongrong had unilaterally agreed to donate the million gold coin she earned to the academy, Xin did not take it.
Firstly, that was the students' money; how could a teacher live off the students? What kind of system would that be?
Although Ning Rongrong's mindset was: What's wrong with Teacher living off the students? Just do it! She's happy to let Teacher live off her, she just wants Teacher to eat from her soft parts!
She just wants to feed her soft little white rabbit to Teacher's mouth~
Secondly, Xin had made a deal with Ning Fengzhi, selling him the manufacturing, assembly, and usage methods for the 'Shunpo' and Hell Revolver, for a colossal sum of thirty million gold coin.
The power of the 'Shunpo' naturally goes without saying, and its usage method is not difficult; it's just that its production is quite precise and complex. Back then, Zhu Zhuqing only studied for a month and was able to use this item to kill a defensive Spirit Beast over two thousand years old, showing its astonishing power.
As for the Hell Revolver, it is a pistol-like item that is not only more portable than Tang San's Godly Zhuge Crossbow but also superior in terms of firing rate, reloading speed, and power.
"I know why you want this Nether Hand cultivation method. After your Blue Phosphor Serpent Spirit awakens, it comes with innate toxins that corrode your body. The more you cultivate, the stronger this toxin becomes, and the greater the backlash on yourself. You want to use this Nether Hand to clear the Bi Lin Serpent Poison from your and your granddaughter's bodies."
"But unfortunately, this Nether Hand is an exclusive cultivation method for my disciples. I cannot pass it on to outsiders." Xin explained this calmly.
"Exclusive to disciples, huh…"
But just as he finished speaking, Dugu Bo took a deep breath, seemingly having made a significant decision, and suddenly placed a blueprint in front of Xin.
"I understand. If it were me, I wouldn't easily pass on such a peerless method of refining hands to absorb poison."
"How about this, Dean Xin, seven days from now, you come to this location in the Sunset Forest. I guarantee you won't be at a disadvantage."
