Pfft. Legendary manuals, they are a thing.

Here, obviously
Tribute, the main plan is to use the demon's power to regenerate the arm. Normally that would result in a bad end, but if we can find the exorcist, then we could control the demon and regenerate it. From Jing's perspective, he will be looking into supernatural solutions to regenerate his arm, so the foremost expert on the supernatural (Mr #1 Ghost-catcher) would be the right place to start.

Oh, and there's something else to consider about this trip. We might get Cao'er to break the skill cap on herbalism since we're adding magic healing.

Where are you coming up with this? What makes you think for a split second that any of this will work remotely how you predict it?

That would be pretty neat.

Considering Cao'er has legitimately godly skill in multiple skills, she gets a surprisingly low amount of spotlight. I guess that might just be because of her personality, though (and the fact that we picked the Qilin route).

Knowing wuxia all we'd have to do is find some asshole, tear his arm off, and then have Cao'er attach it to Jing.

That could also work, although Cao'er might have a harder time with the surgery since she's mostly familiar with human anatomy and physiology.

Cao'er is a quick study, and her skills are already godlike. This would be a Cao'er quest, which is good because the girl is quite unhappy about abandonment points now.

Tropic, with things as they are, I honestly don't see why Jing himself is necessary at this stage. In terms of politicking and taking down the Zhang family, we have Xiahou Yu, Shun, Gao Ying, and the constable leader taking care of it. In terms of fighting, well, there's Changguan Chuji, Murong Yandi, Song Lingshu, and Yifang for that. Jing himself is no longer a serious contender like this anyhow, so I fail to see what necessary skills he brings to the table as a cripple.

I kind of agree with Absinthe that we are effectively finished as a serious contender, even with such illustrious masters.
Worry not. If we could copy Eighteen Arhats formation with just one person, we can copy most of the two-handed techniques with just one arm! Two is less than eighteen, right?

Everything is possible if you throw enough WQS at it!

There is plenty of ways to Jing to become contender.

* Legendary manuals
* Lasers
* Yuchan techniques.
* Skill raising techniques.
* Strenght or agility boosting techniques.
* Neigong techniques
* Poisons and poison related techniques
* Fire neigong and fire related techniques.

Exorcisms tend to go a lot better if you possess an object the spirit has an aversion/hatred of... Like say a holy object of an opposing god or the sword that killed it.
Not that I really think that exorcism is at all likely.:troll:

2 The world will go on without us; and wandering off will ensure we accomplish nothing and be forgotten to the annals of time.

And I still don't know why no one has agreed that attaching the sword to our stump would be freekn' sweet.:rpgcodex:

...You might be joking, but it is actually correct.
The only thing I regret is that this is no longer possible:
The young monks around you have given your party a wide berth, and from the tortured look on their faces they seem to be trying their best not to stare at the one-eyed man sitting there, surrounded by a bevy of beautiful women hanging off his arms.
Clearly, now we will have to choose our No.1 waifu who will be the only one with the right to hang off our arm.

It's unfair. :(

Or you could vote 1 and reobtain the arm.

Eh, actually, if we're regenerating an arm, I wonder if we can regenerate an eye while we're at it too. Eyes are much easier to regenerate anyhow.

We can have a the sword stump cover for special occasions Elfberserker.

Like when we are fighting Bai Jiutian?
You know what they say about weapons being extintions of your arms.
What is better way to demonstrate to be better swordman than having literally sword as your arm.
