Chapter 156: Schooling
The pot-bellied boy held back a smile and tilted his head back. Tossing his white hair back over his shoulder, a slight tint of color climbed onto his cheeks. Then he coughed gentle into his fist, looking up into the air as he spoke.
This one is known as Tao Ba.
Sage blinked, this sudden change in attitude was unusual. The boy went from rude and wild to a shy gentleman. After a moment, Sage was quite happy as he realized the difference. Flattery seems to be the key with this guy!
It was an area he was quite versed in, taking humility and politeness to the extreme in the past to try and get good business deals this fellow seemed to respond to it perfectly! Testing his hypothesis he started talking
What a most magnanimous and handsome fellow you are. Im so honored to be in your company. The great Tao Ba. To think I could meet such a spectacular personage!
Why yes, I am quite spectacular.
To think that just a little flake of your skin was so powerful. I bet with just one of your nail trimmings a legendary weapon could be forged. The great no, the magnificent Tao Ba. Who could compare to such a figure? I bet all my friends will beg to sniff my clothing merely because the magnificent Tao Ba has looked at them.
Great Hero Tao Ba, your knowledge is so deep and profound. It would be so very meaningful to me if you could tell me more about what happened to me when I entered the tomb.
Oh yes, that. Completely merging is called a semi-forbidden technique for a reason. If you arent compatible enough with the target or take enough time afterwards to adjust it can cause the problem you ran into. You should have easily been able to be the dominant persona after merging, but you probably merged many times very rapidly. All those weak minds worked together. They suppressed your mind and the combination of them all took over. This isnt the first time such a thing has happened. Master Huang forced you to merge with the egg of a Silver Liberator Butterfly. They were created for just such a thing. They give the power of that chrysalis, burning up your cultivation to unify the mind and force a rapid metamorphosis. Okay, enough of that. Fetch me more tea.
Sage bowed and scraped, thanking Tao Ba and serving him some more as he thought about what the boy said. Hed assumed something along those lines, but it made sense now. Those disjointed memories he saw showed him the culprit. He wasnt wary of the issue and that toad was far more powerful than he thought. It might even have teamed up with the Twin Ringed Serpent and urged him on towards more power. Each merging made him feel more and more powerful so it only became easier as it went along till finally there were enough other personalities to team up against him. While his memory of that time was still a patchwork mess, he found a few new sets of ancestral memories.
There were no new memories of any lifetimes, as hed merged with eggs each of these times. Instead it was only the ancestral memories from the toad, the Charming Lance Beetle, and the Stonecutter Ants. The toad had a singular technique called Hypnotic Eye, which wasnt surprising. The Stonecutter Ants memories had no techniques, but was actually a sort of manual of behavior. The ants worked many jobs all on their own, these memories were their training guide. How to dig their tunnels, raise the young, process spirit stones, grow their fungus crops, and even battle tactics. Interesting. If I change these and pass them down would that completely change their behavior?
Lastly, most interesting was the Charming Lance Beetle. Hed created it from the Succubus Beetle, and a Lance Beetle. The Lance Beetle was a creation of his own from a crimson rhino beetle with thick armor and a fist sized mosquito he got from the Saffron Swamp. Contrary to what he imagined, the Succubus Beetle did not have the greatest lineage. It didnt even have any techniques, it was similar to the ant in that it just had instincts and instructions for its descendants to use their pheromones, sounds and touches to influence other insects. It also wasnt the Crimson Rhino Beetle hed got from the Insect Tamer Pan Ping. Despite being one of his prized specimen and having a decently pure bloodline, the surprising ancestral memory came from the unknown mosquito. Despite being the size of a fist, Sage thought they were completely normal insects living in the wilds.
He was wrong. They had a deeper background. There was something far more powerful in their past. While the memories werent strong enough to trace their origin, they held a powerful technique.
