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

Chapter 454: First fight, begins...

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The thin old man flew backwards, and a magic weapon like a heart-protecting mirror flew out of his sleeve and blocked in front of him. The forbidden light flashed, and a thick spiritual power shield appeared.

next moment.

clang.
A sharp sound like the collision of metal was heard, and the spiritual shield dimmed for a moment, then burst into an even more dazzling spiritual light.

A huge repulsive force emerged, and the black shadow flew backwards, revealing its figure in mid-air.

It is about the size of an adult's fist, with a body covered with a layer of fine green scales, and four blue fangs like those of a venomous snake growing on its small head.

As it opened its mouth and hissed, wisps of green poisonous gas came out like the tongue of a snake.

"Middle stage of demon realm."

The thin old man's eyes were filled with fear. He glanced at the protective magic weapon and saw four corrosion-like holes on its smooth mirror surface.

"What a vicious monster"

You have to know that his magic weapon is a second-level mid-grade defensive magic weapon. The fangs of the demon insect can leave such a mark on the magic weapon, which is comparable to a top-grade magic weapon.

If it bites your body, your flesh and bones will melt away.

The thin old man was even more fearful at this moment.

Thoughts are turning.

Seeing the bewildered look on Li Chengan and his son's faces, the thin old man's heart moved slightly, and he chuckled and said, "Manager Li, can I make a deal with you?"

"trade?"

Li Chengan was stunned.

"Correct."

The thin old man didn't waste any words. He raised his hand and pointed at the demon insect hovering above his head, saying, "As long as you give it to me, no matter what you want, I will satisfy you."

There was a pause.

He glanced at Li Changfu and said meaningfully: "Even if you don't have a spiritual vein, it's not impossible to become an immortal master, it's just that the cost is too high."

"Become a fairy master?"

The merchants who were caught in the fight and lying on the ground in a panic heard what the thin old man said. Their eyes widened in an instant, and they all got up and shouted:
"I am willing to give all my wealth to the Immortal Master, and only ask for a chance to be an immortal."

"I have collected all kinds of rare treasures in my home, and I am willing to give them all to the Immortal Master."

"Master, I."

"."

The merchants were eager to offer various conditions, hoping to impress the Immortal Master.

In the pavilion.

City Lord Gu, who was not affected, felt a little agitated when he heard what the thin old man said, and looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

But don't wait for him to speak.

Then he heard a thunderous rebuke, "Stop making noise."

Well.
The faces of the shouting merchants turned pale in an instant, their vision went dark, and the weak ones collapsed on the muddy ground, with blood flowing from their ears.

See this.

City Lord Gu's eyelids twitched and he quickly swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

The thin old man didn't care at all. He looked at Li Cheng'an who was in a dilemma and chuckled, "How about adding another elixir that can extend your life for sixty years?"

"hiss"

City Lord Gu took a deep breath and turned to look at his children with burning eyes.

"This this."

How could Li Cheng'an easily believe what the thin old man said? If he handed over the spiritual insect, wouldn't his life and death be entirely up to the old man's will?

But he didn't want to conflict with the thin old man again.

No mention of victory or defeat.

The aftermath of the fight between the two was more than he and his son could bear.

See him looking around.

The thin old man frowned slightly, shook his head, and said, "Give me an answer before sunset."

After saying this, he waved his sleeves, put away his magic weapon, turned around and walked into the pavilion.

"Thank you, Immortal Master."

Li Cheng'an didn't dare to stay long, and pulled Li Changfu away quickly amid the fearful and jealous gazes of the crowd.

The remaining merchants saw the Immortal Master's cold expression and dared not say anything. They turned around and left in shame.

Inside the pavilion.

The thin old man glanced at the two figures outside the pavilion, then looked at City Lord Gu and said calmly, "This fishing festival does not have to be limited to fishermen."

He waved his sleeves across the table.

A bamboo basket appeared on the table, filled with gold and silver leaves.

As soon as it appeared, a faint fishy fragrance spread.

“Not just for fishermen”

City Master Gu was stunned for a moment, and then he saw that there were several times more gold and silver leaves in the bamboo basket than before. He was puzzled for a moment, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, Immortal Master."

"Go."

City Master Gu bowed respectfully, picked up the bamboo basket, turned around and walked to the edge of the pavilion, raised his hand to call the big man who collected silver bills from each family, handed the bamboo basket to him, and whispered instructions. When he turned around, he found that only his daughter was left in the pavilion.

City Master Gu frowned and asked, "Where's Feng'er?"

Gu Chengyue pointed to the pavilion and said, "Brother has returned to Changxi City."

Not far from the path.

A carriage rushed towards Changxi City.

City Lord Gu nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment, and whispered, "Go visit Shopkeeper Li, the Food for the Immortal, and ask if there are any immortal cultivation methods left in his family."

Gu Chengyue's eyes lit up, but when he thought of the demon insect that even his master was afraid of, fear appeared on his face. He shook his head and said, "Let's wait for Master."

City Lord Gu glared at her, looked around, and said in a low voice: "Don't you think about it, if his family can leave behind such a vicious monster, then how powerful his magic must be."

"If I get some inheritance."

Seeing his father's increasingly intimidating gaze, Gu Chengyue stood up reluctantly and walked slowly towards the pavilion where Li Chengan was.

the other side.

The big man, carrying a bamboo basket, jumped to an archway across the river that looked like the Dragon Gate. He swung his arm and punched the bronze bell hanging on it.

thump.
The long bell sounded everywhere.

The people who were kneeling on the ground as if worshiping gods and Buddhas raised their heads one after another.

"This fishing festival is open to all fishermen. Everyone can catch golden and silver leaves. Those who catch spiritual fish will be rewarded with ten acres of farmland and a thousand taels of silver."

“Not limited to fishermen?”

"If you capture the spirit fish, you will be rewarded with ten acres of land and a thousand taels of silver?"

Many people were stunned, and regardless of their dirty bodies, they whispered to each other and burst into a loud noise.

The big man ignored everything else, grabbed a handful of gold and silver leaves and scattered them with a wave of his hand.

Under the gaze of everyone.

The golden and silver leaves sparkled with dazzling brilliance and slowly fell into the rushing river, being carried away by the current and drifting downstream.

The strange thing is that it does not sink to the bottom, and as it floats, strings of bubbles gradually appear on the water surface.

Sudden.

One of the silver leaves seemed to be sucked by something and did not move. The next moment, a three-foot-long blue carp jumped out of the water with the silver leaf in its mouth and then fell heavily into the river.

after it.

Large fish over three feet long leaped out and fell with gold or silver leaves in their mouths.

Such a spectacular sight caused the crowd to exclaim in surprise.

As the remaining gold and silver leaves approached the fishermen, the fishermen no longer waited and jumped into the water.

If you look down from the sky, you can see it.

The fishermen approached the gold and silver leaves as quickly as swimming fish. Whenever a big fish approached, they seemed to have noticed it and immediately turned around and headed towards another place of gold or silver leaves.

Not long after.

Amidst a burst of exclamations.

Within the river.

An old man with white hair and wrinkled skin, holding a gold leaf in his mouth, swam quickly to the shore.

behind him.

Following him was a black shadow that was many times larger than his body.

I don’t know if it was because the big man standing on the dragon gate scattered gold and silver leaves again, or because he was too close to the shore, but the black shadow followed for more than ten meters and then sank deeper into the river.

After the old man got ashore, he did not stop but ran towards the pavilion upstream.

See this.

People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait were talking about this, and their words were full of sour jealousy.

One gold leaf could be exchanged for a boat, and one boat was worth one hundred taels of silver, enough for a family to buy several acres of land or live a comfortable life for ten years.

How can we not make them envious and jealous?

Not long after the old man picked up a gold leaf.

A dark-skinned boy who looked like a skinny monkey climbed up the shore carrying a silver leaf and ran towards the pavilion upstream with joy.

This time.

Those in the crowd who could swim could no longer hold back, so they took off their clothes, splashed the water on their skin, and after they got used to it a little, they dived into the river.

There are dozens of people in this wave alone.

at the same time.

More and more big fish gathered in the river, and most of them were more than three feet long, with fine scales like armor.

Time passed slowly.

Every once in a while, someone would return to the shore carrying gold or silver leaves and run away.

This also made more people jealous, so they took off their clothes and jumped into the river in a bid to get rich.

But what they don't know is.

Many people never floated up again after jumping into the river. Some people suddenly sank into the water and disappeared while swimming. Others were unable to escape and were hit or bitten by big fish and pulled into deep water.
