Longevity and Immortal Journey: Raising Demons, Raising Plants and Seeking Immortals

Chapter 164 Contract Pressure
Disappeared with the roar.

Three eyeless pythons, as dark as iron and covered with smooth scales, slowly poked out of the dust smoke, stepped over the fence, and revealed their entire bodies.

Its tail was connected to a small tree with dark red branches and leaves covered with burrs. It used a snake's body as its legs. It stirred up a puff of smoke and dust and left quickly with a jingling sound.

On the top of a tree on the edge of the mountain top.

The man in Xuanyi stared at the small piece of wood in the smoke and murmured, "What kind of monster is this?"

In his experience, he has never seen anything like it.

Seeing it going straight to the upper-grade spiritual field, the man in black clothes subconsciously transferred the spiritual power and wanted to fly over.

But as soon as he took a step, he stopped again.

"Don't look at things you shouldn't look at, and ignore things you shouldn't care about."

The man glanced at the small courtyard in the distance, hesitated for a moment, then disappeared on the top of the mountain in a few leaps.

Baishui's mistakes were still fresh in his mind, and he didn't want to provoke that person by mistake.

When he left, he still had doubts in his mind.

Could this monster be the rumored monster that was interrupted by Baishui and Yan Shaoyuan?
He didn't know and didn't dare to ask.

And the other side.

The small piece of wood soon came to Li Changsheng's side. Three snake bodies as thick as buckets were winding around him and protecting him. The branches and leaves of the tree crown were swaying and tinkling.

A feeling of joy and excitement spread into his heart.

With a smile in his eyes, Li Changsheng calmed down the little wood for a moment, glanced at the cocoon in the spirit field, and turned over his hand to take out a wooden bowl.

Run the spiritual power on the fingertips and scratch the palm.

Silks of bright red overflowed and dropped into the bowl.

He would try to contract the Senluo Flower Demon again. If it still refused to comply, then he could only reluctantly kill it while it had not yet advanced.

"I hope you are interested..."

Li Changsheng's thoughts flashed across his mind.

Soon, blood overflowed less than half of the bowl.

"almost."

Li Changsheng used his spiritual power to stop the bleeding, and immediately pinched the magic formula with his hand. The spiritual power in his body quickly infected the spiritual contract veins.

Just a few breaths.

It has the shape of a bull's head, winding dragon horns, insect beetles on its back, but its limbs are missing, and its tail's animal-shaped veins are thickly formed.

Li Changsheng looked at the wooden bowl, the magic formula in his hand changed, and secretly shouted: "Go."

A dark gray spiritual light overflowed from his fingers, condensing into a mottled beast shadow and flying into the bowl.

The blood rolled and quickly condensed into a gray solid imprinted with the shape of an animal, exuding a strong and strange smell.

"It's done."

Li Changsheng picked up the wooden bowl and, escorted by Xiaomu, came to the center of Lingtian.

Follow him.

Thin threads suddenly extended from the cocoon, swaying in the wind like water plants.

Li Changsheng's eyes narrowed slightly. He walked three meters away from it and stopped moving forward. He picked up the gray solid in the bowl and gently threw it towards the thread.

The solid object fell slowly, less than one meter away from the cocoon.

call out.
Several threads suddenly swelled and instantly penetrated the gray solid, hanging it in mid-air.

Li Changsheng looked at it expectantly.

But after waiting for a while, Senluo Flower Demon still made no next move.

"Did you fail?"

A trace of disappointment flashed across Li Changsheng's face, but his eyes gradually became sharp.

In the past, he could tolerate Xiao Hei's restraint.

But after they all advance, even Xiao Hei may lose control, let alone him.

clang clang clang.
As if feeling his killing intent, the branches and leaves of the small wood shook and jingled.

Li Changsheng glanced at Yuzi and stepped back.

Dots of dark red aura bloomed from the burls on the surface of the small piece of wood. The wood grains on the scales of the three bucket-thick pythons quickly became infected with a touch of dark red, and a sinister and evil aura rose up.

Just when Li Changsheng was about to let Xiaomu take action, his expression suddenly changed and he looked forward.

I saw that the gray solid mass was wrapped in densely packed slender roots.

Feeling the gradually deepening connection in his heart, Li Changsheng raised his brows slightly and stopped Xiaomu from doing anything.

After a while.

Li Changsheng's thoughts moved slightly and he activated it.

hum.
The cocoon trembled slightly, and a hazy and illusory spiritual light rose up, and then a twisted insect-like pattern slowly appeared on the surface of the root thread, eroding away towards its entire body.

And inside it, an illusory animal-shaped mark slowly condensed and took shape.

At this moment, the beast-shaped mark inside Xiao Hei suddenly burst into gray light, and the beast-shaped marks that had just gathered suddenly hit him.

The two seemed to be in perfect harmony, slowly merging together.

The diffuse patterns on the surface of the little black body burst out with little auras of light, twisting like insects, climbing onto the fine roots, and spreading rapidly.

And outside.

The dancing roots on the cocoon suddenly stiffened, and dots of gray spots appeared, quickly expanding to the entire cocoon body and roots.

As the markings cover it, the aura flickers, an invisible suction emerges, and the rich aura filling the air surges into the cocoon.

Wisps of spiritual mist gathered around the cocoon, forming a vortex with a radius of several meters.

hum.
Li Changsheng, who was not far away, felt a buzz in his head.

The connection in his mind that represented Xiao Hei was several times larger in vain. It crashed into his mind like a huge mountain, and waves of huge pressure surged out, causing waves of severe pain to surge through his mind.

This was the second time since he had contracted a large number of red-winged blood bamboos that his mind could not bear the pressure brought by the contract.

Li Changsheng scratched his head with both hands, his body was half rickety, veins were popping up on his forehead, and fine beads of sweat were oozing out.

After half an hour.

The whirlpool of spiritual energy surrounding the cocoon dispersed, revealing a cocoon body covered with complex patterns.

Uh.
Li Changsheng groaned and sat down on the ground, his head hanging down, breathing heavily.

It calmed down for a while.

Li Changsheng slowly raised his head.

The corners of his eyes were as red as blood, and his black and white pupils were covered with streaks of blood, as if he hadn't slept for a long time.

Li Changsheng rubbed his brows, and after calming down for a while, he glanced at the cocoon and jumped onto the python next to him.

boom.
The three pythons turned upside down, quickly left the spiritual field, raised a puff of smoke, and returned to the small courtyard.

Li Changsheng suppressed his drowsiness, took out some spiritual rice from the kitchen, poured it into Xiaohua's family's animal trough, and immediately returned to the wooden house.

Go back to the third floor.

He lay on the soft couch and fell into a deep sleep after just a few breaths.

After sleeping, three days passed directly.

Wooden house, third floor.

Li Changsheng slowly opened his eyes, sat up, and rubbed his swollen and numb head vigorously, with a trace of bitterness on his face.

He still underestimated the difficulty of contracting the Senluo Flower Demon, and also overestimated his mental endurance.

As a result, even after sleeping for three days, his mind was still heavy and groggy, and he would feel pain from time to time.

Li Changsheng sat blankly for a while, then closed his eyes and concentrated. His consciousness was in a trance for a moment, and his mind was immersed in the spiritual contract space.

In the chaotic space, there are stars.

One of the stars, glowing with colorful auras and hazy like an illusion, was the most dazzling.

Li Changsheng's thoughts moved slightly, and he appeared on the edge of the colorful stars. When he touched them with his palm, instead of sinking into the stars as he imagined, there was a feeling of rejection.

"You haven't woken up yet?"

Li Changsheng's thoughts flashed through his mind, he left the spiritual contract space, shook his head, and stepped down the stairs.Return to the first floor.

Just as he was drinking tea.

A green stream of light quickly streaked across the sky, and within a few seconds, it fell into the courtyard.

By the time Li Changsheng came to his senses, Ma Rong had already stepped into the house.

"Brother."

Li Changsheng stood up and cupped his hands.

Seeing his sluggish expression, Ma Rong looked at him carefully and saw that the corners of his eyes were red, and his brows couldn't help but frown slightly, "Junior brother, are you mentally damaged?"

Li Changsheng stretched out his hand to ask him to sit down, shook his head and said: "It's okay, I just suffered a spell backlash." He braced himself up and asked doubtfully: "Senior brother, where am I?"

Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Ma Rong didn't want to ask any more questions. He took out a storage bag from his sleeve and threw it on his table. He said with a smile: "Don't you want to experiment with elixirs to cultivate spiritual plants? What's in this bag?" It’s the elixir that has just matured.”

kindness?
Li Changsheng looked slightly shocked, picked up the storage bag, and couldn't wait to use his spiritual power to penetrate it.

The next moment, jade boxes appeared on the table.

Li Changsheng reached for a jade box and opened it.

Ten spiritual plants with dark vine-like bodies and green tendons all over them came into view.

"Forging Tendon Grass!" Li Changsheng's eyes showed surprise.

Immediately he opened the other jade boxes one by one.

The first-grade high-grade elixir is Bone Refining Flower, White Jade Fruit, Purple Bee Core, the middle-grade elixir is Vein Nourishing Grass, Meat Bamboo Shoot, the lower-grade elixir is Gathering Spirit Grass, and Mingshen Flower.

There are also some spiritual rice such as yellow sprout rice and blood sprout rice.

After Li Changsheng checked them one by one, his face showed undisguised joy, he cupped his hands towards Ma Rong and said, "Thank you, senior brother."

"It's just some magic medicine, junior brother, don't be polite." Ma Rong waved his hand and said with a smile, "Junior brother, what else do you need?"

Li Changsheng's eyes flickered, hesitated for a moment, and said awkwardly: "Senior brother, do you have a first-order high-grade spiritual ore and a second-order low-grade spiritual ore?" He paused and quickly added: "As long as the raw ore is fine."

"First-grade high-grade, second-grade low-grade spiritual ore? Raw ore?"

Ma Rong was confused by his request. He came back to his senses and asked doubtfully: "Junior brother still wants to dabble in weapon refining?" Then he frowned and said: "But there is no earthly fire in the mountainous land."

He looked around and didn't see the refining furnace.
Li Changsheng waved his hand and said: "It's not for practicing weapons, it's because junior brother needs some spiritual minerals to practice magic."

Use spiritual minerals to practice magic?
Ma Rong was confused, but he didn't ask too much. After thinking about it, he asked, "How much do you need, junior brother?"

"Yeah." Li Changsheng pondered for a moment and then hesitated: "Three thousand catties of each kind?"

"Not much."

Ma Rong nodded slightly and asked, "What attributes does junior brother need?"

"If wood and metal are not suitable, earth can be used," Li Changsheng thought for a while and said.

Ma Rong nodded in understanding and said with a smile: "Junior brother, please wait a little longer. I will ask the clansmen to bring some over next time."

Three thousand kilograms of each type sounds like a lot, but the spiritual ore is heavy, so it actually doesn't add up to much.

Li Changsheng said happily: "Thank you, senior brother."

With these spiritual mines, you can increase the magic power of Xiaoxiaohua and Xiaomu, making their magic power exceed their own level.

After a few words of conversation.

Li Changsheng's heart moved slightly, and he asked him about the herding of monks in Wandu Forest.

"Brother, have you ever caught that person?"

"Ugh"

Ma Rong shook his head and sighed: "Whether it was the surveillance methods I left behind or other managers, they did not sense the insect swarm moving."

"The captain of the patrol guard also returned to investigate and saw that the two insect swarms were almost so hungry that they were about to kill each other."

Ma Rong spread his hands and said helplessly: "Those two insect slaves were so vigilant that they actually abandoned the insect swarm they had finally cultivated."

Judging from the size of the two insect swarms, these two monks from the herding lineage were at least in the middle stage of pulse condensation.

If you catch them.

Not to mention anything else, just one palm was enough for him to break through the bottleneck of the initial stage of pulse condensation.

It's a pity that he escaped.

In the Ten Thousand Mountains, as long as they focus on avoiding it, trying to find it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"It's a pity." Li Changsheng responded with a smile.

He immediately changed the subject and asked him if he knew about Tan Hu and if he was in danger?
Ma Rong glanced at him strangely and smiled softly: "Junior brother, don't worry, Senior Brother Tan is fine, he is just delayed by some things." After a pause, he added: "It is estimated that it may take three to half a year to return. .”

Speaking of which.

He looked Li Changsheng up and down and asked: "Junior brother is now at the ninth level of Qi training, has he prepared the spiritual liquid?"

Li Changsheng said softly: "Senior Brother Tan gave me a bottle. I plan to nourish the spiritual veins for a few days and then take it to open up the remaining veins."

"That's good." Ma Rong nodded, and then asked: "Is there a second-level elixir?"

Li Changsheng nodded, "Yes, the rewards from the sect have not been used yet."

Hearing this, Ma Rong's expression softened slightly. He gave Ma Zhenyi all the second-level elixirs rewarded by the sect in his hand. If Li Changsheng lacked them, he would really have a headache.

Then the two chatted for a while, and Ma Rong stood up and left.

Li Changsheng watched him go away and turned towards the kitchen.

After not feeding the pigs for three days, he always felt that Xiaohua's family had lost weight.

This is no good, you have to give them a good supplement!

Just as he was cutting the wilted stinky fern, a connection in his mind suddenly expanded several times.

Li Changsheng stagnated. If he hadn't been holding on to the stove, he would have fallen to the ground.

It calmed down for a while.

Li Changsheng endured the pain in his mind, wiped the blood from the corner of his eyes, quickly cut the pig food, removed the smelly branches and leaves, and scooped some spiritual rice into the pot.

Immediately he sat down on the stool, closed his eyes and relaxed his mind.

An hour later.

Li Changsheng glanced at Xiaohua's family who was busy cooking, then walked up to Xiaomu while rubbing his brows.

clang clang clang.
The small wooden thoughts conveyed joy, and the branches and leaves danced and jingled.

Li Changsheng looked at the insect nest that was only visible on the tree trunk, and his thoughts moved slightly.

The next moment, the insect mother, which was nearly the size of a native dog, crawled out of the insect nest with her bloated body.

Li Changsheng stared.

[Target: Slaves]

[Race: Mutated Red-Winged Blood Bamboo "Insect Mother"]

[First-grade top grade: 1%]

[Talent: Blood-devouring, reproduction. 】

[Status: healthy. 】

"Is it just an advanced level?"

Li Changsheng felt a little disappointed. He waved the insect mother back to the insect nest, looked up at the fence, and thought slightly.

hum.
Two black shadows flew up from both sides of the fence and arrived in front of him in an instant.

Li Changsheng stretched out his hand and stared at him.

[Target: Ada] [First-order mid-grade: 99%]

[Target: Ah Er] [First-order mid-grade: 99%]

"Hopefully something will change"

Li Changsheng stared at his cultivation column, and in the next moment, a piece of information came to his mind.

[Required for advancement: Devour ten drops of Dryad juice, swallow a large amount of flesh and blood rich in spiritual energy, and have a high probability of causing unknown mutations]
