Chapter 75: The First Permanent Negative Status (2/2)

Magic treasures were different from medicinal pills. Every single one of them was of considerable value. Jiang Li guessed that Guo An most likely did not have such wealth. This should be the magic artifact of an inner sect disciple. It had only been transferred to Guo An after he had changed his body several times.

He remembered that once the golden needle pierced into the black zombie's body, the black zombie's speed would slow down. It should be a control-type artifact that limited speed. It was just right to use it now.

He grabbed a golden needle and stabbed it into his thigh without hesitation.

Guh!

When the golden needle entered the flesh, Jiang Li deliberately avoided the thigh bone. Under the circumstances that Jiang Li did not activate his dual defense, the sharp medium-grade Yellow-rank golden needle did not encounter much resistance and directly pierced through his thigh.

”Ouch… it hurts so much. But… I won't die from this!”

”It's fine… it's fine. I have pain relief.”

Jiang Li watched as his thigh muscles twitched spontaneously under the stimulation, but the pain he felt was barely within his tolerance range.

With a sigh of relief, he looked at the interface.

[Seven Golden Life Locking Needles stabbed into the right thigh. Added Status: Golden Life Lock on the right thigh]

[Golden Life Lock: Movement speed of the right leg will be reduced by 70%. Duration: 6 hours] (− +)

Only 70%? Jiang Li could clearly feel that if he moved his right leg, he would still be sent flying by the strength of the armored horse.

Jiang Li compared the effects of the golden needle between him and the black zombie. The effects were very different.

Jiang Li was only affected by a single right leg, and the effect was far from being enough to suppress the Armored Horse Divine Travel status.

But thinking about it, it made sense. He did not know how to use the complementary needle technique, so he was unable to unleash the full might of the artifact.

His own strength and resistance far exceeded the black zombie, and he also had a large number of status enhancements.

If there was no difference between him and the zombie, he could kill himself out of shame.

But now, he would have to suffer.

Jiang Li sighed and picked up another golden needle. He stabbed it ruthlessly into his left thigh.

[Seven Golden Life Locking Needles stabbed into both thighs. Added Status: Dual Golden Life Lock on both thighs]

As this was a set of artifact needles, they produced greater effect when used together. Thus, when these two golden needles were pierced into the legs, the effect was greater than separately using them.

However, it was still not enough!

[Seven Golden Life Locking Needles stabbed into both thighs…]

[Seven Golden Life Locking Needles stabbed into both thighs…]

[Quadruple Golden Life Lock: Movement speed of the legs will be reduced by 780%. Duration: 6 hours] (− +)

The four golden needles offset the buff of Jiang Li's [Armored Horse Divine Travel] by 780% increase. The remaining increase was 220%.

This way, Jiang Li's movement speed would become about three times as fast as before. Although it was naturally very fast, with his own dynamic vision, he would only need to practice for a period of time to roughly master it.

The remaining portion of the effect could only be unlocked and used after his cultivation became stronger.

However, these golden needles could only lock a cultivator's speed for six hours. This was probably the time the Seven Golden Life Locking Needles could last without additional spiritual qi replenishment.

Jiang Li pressed for five seconds and for the first time, he made a negative status last for an infinite amount of time.

[Quadruple Golden Life Lock: Movement speed of the legs will be reduced by 780%. Duration: ∞] (−)

If not for the fact that there was a minus button that could change the duration to zero and remove the status, Jiang Li would not dare to do this even if he was beaten to death.

After modifying it, Jiang Li removed the golden needles. Half a minute later, the four wounds automatically healed.

Only then did Jiang Li carefully stand up.
