Lord of Immortals

Chapter 15: Ge Merchant Transforms into a Dragon

Ge Xian heard the call and hurried to the battlefield, which was a mess and covered with blood and flesh.

On the way, they also passed by seven or eight villagers who had eaten alienated flesh and blood, had their bodies disemboweled, and were still crying.

When he felt pity, he also thought about what the two ghosts had said in a hurry.

The meaning of those few sentences, and even the secret behind them, were not difficult for Ge Xian to guess.

"First, I stopped feeding the county residents the obviously problematic Tai Sui millet, and then I told them to keep the flesh and blood of the outsiders pure."

"Oh, polluted humans are hard to sell, right?"

"Whether it's a ghost clan, a dragon's nest, or any other buyer, I'm afraid they all have the same requirement: the flesh and blood must be pure."

When he finished his guess, he had already arrived in front of the two ghosts and the evil cultivators.

With a humble smile on his face, he saluted the two powerful ghosts and dozens of evil cultivators from the city's wealthy gentry.

When he moved, he also quietly released a trivial "charming" aura.

That's right!

The salesman Ge made another underhanded move.

With previous experience in dealing with Yelu Yuyan and the fox prostitute called Chun Niang, Ge Xian already knew that his talent was indeed of great use.

If used harshly, some dangerous attacks can be reversed and killed.

If you use it lightly, you can win the favor of almost all creatures silently.

This reminded Ge Xian of the so-called "charm value" settings in some online games in his previous life, which were quite similar.

Sure enough, when he finished the ceremony, he clearly felt that at least half of the hostile looks among the evil cultivators that had originally existed were gradually dissipated, and they somehow decided not to care about this salesman coming to share their spoils.

The two ghosts, who were determined to use and hide Ge Xian, seemed to feel guilty and actually gave Ge Xian some advice:
"Boy, this time we were able to kill these aquatic monsters without any damage. You are the one who took the lead. I allow you to choose one of these trophies first."

"That [Clam Pearl] is the rarest. It originally contains the water attribute Yin Qi accumulated by the clam essence for a long time. Later, it was refined and polished by Wei Dashou, and injected with essence and blood. A wisp of black water Yin Qi has been born from it... If you Once you get it and incorporate it into your body, as long as you can get through the [rejection] stage, you can enter Taoism and practice tonight, and I can decide to give you that page of the Black Water Residual Sutra."

"The rejection test is not easy to pass. Most of those who want to join the Dao die here. If you don't want to take the risk for the time being, you can choose the spear. That bitch Wei Dashou bought a piece of West Sea whale horn from somewhere and smelted it into a spear. It's so good that it opened several big holes for my brothers, you can use it for self-defense."

Hearing this, Ge Xian immediately judged it.

These two ghosts are not good ghosts.

It's very duplicitous, and it's not a sincere advice at all.

Anyone with a little bit of intelligence can tell that these two things are clearly chosen by them.

The other evil cultivators in the field also deliberately avoided these two treasures when they scanned the trophies with their eyes and quietly selected them.

Naturally, Ge Xian would not get into trouble, not to mention that he had no intention of choosing the clam beads and whale gun.

As he approached the pile of bloody and messy "trophies", the extraordinary sense that was always on in his body began to throb crazily, reminding Ge Xian which of the various things in the pile was the real one. the most precious.

With this guidance, Ge Xian determined his goal from the beginning.

Even if he doesn't know how precious that thing is now, it is still a must-select.

He pretended to be pretentious, picked it up with his eyes, and then said:

"I really don't dare to start practicing cultivation easily. I have no confidence in dealing with the [rejection] level. I heard that many brave people have died on it."

"But the [Whale Gun] looks too heavy. It's difficult to lift it up. How can I protect myself?"

"I think this object suits me quite well."

When he finished speaking, Ge Xian leaned forward and took away a very strange scarlet turtle shell without caring about the blood.

Of course, it can be said to be a turtle carcass, after all, there is still a lot of rotten turtle meat on it.

Among the many trophies, this thing is very inconspicuous.

The two ghosts and the evil cultivators all nodded in approval when they saw that he was so "aware".

During the evil practice, the wife of Wang's family, who was suspected of practicing the weird martial arts "Bone Transformation Palm", said with genuine kindness:

"My little brother has a good eye. This monster is called [Dustpan Turtle]. It has no head, no tail, and no limbs. It is muddleheaded and has no intelligence at all. It only has hundreds of small mouths for sucking blood. If you encounter it, When someone falls into the water, it will instinctively get closer and drain all the blood from an adult human body in just a few breaths."

"You take this turtle shell, and when you return to the city, spend some money and food to have it polished for you. It can be used as armor to protect yourself."

"Thank you, sister, for your guidance. My brother is deeply impressed by it."

Ge Xian is not only good at charming and tonic, he also has a very sweet mouth.

In just a few sentences, Wang's wife, who practices evil arts, was made to smile.

At the same time, the two ghosts and the evil cultivators also successfully distributed the spoils. They all gained a lot and were in a great mood.

The team that had been stagnant for a long time started back to the city again.

……

When he came, Ge Xian was in the salesman team, but when he returned, he had to hang out with the escort team.

The reason is also simple. The so-called worry is not about scarcity but about inequality.

We are all peddlers who were brought here to preach. Why is it that you are the only one who has made great achievements and received a reward? In addition, as a young peddler, he has the courage to hang out with those ghosts and evil cultivators. The peddlers and merchants all regard him as an alien. Don't dare to be hostile and gossip, but alienation is inevitable.

Regarding this, Ge Xian pretended to be uncomfortable on his face, but he said jokingly in his heart: "I never expected that although my multi-faceted craftsmanship business of selling intelligence for a living collapsed, I still managed to break into the enemy's camp by some strange combination of circumstances. .”

After the thought was settled, Ge Merchant continued to use dirty tricks without any politeness.

Borrowing the charm value that can make people relax their vigilance and make people feel good, Ge Xian took the opportunity to ask a group of evil cultivators, and even two evil generals, about various common-sense questions related to cultivation.

About using this young salesman with a rare gift of perception to complete the mission!
The two ghosts had informed the monks in advance.

Seeing that he sincerely asked for advice, everyone did not hide anything and answered many of his questions carefully.

For a time, Ge Xian's knowledge increased a lot.

Compared with Hong Buyi, the five-bag elder of the Beggar Clan, the two evil generals here and the monks trained by various wealthy gentry in the city each have a higher position in the world of practice and naturally know more. Conclusion It is also more authoritative and credible.

From time to time, Ge Xian felt enlightened, and the mysterious veil of the spiritual world was lifted again.

After all, he knew what was going on and stopped when he saw fit. He didn't interrupt anymore, but quietly set the pace before shutting up.

Sure enough, the conversation between the two ghosts and the other evil cultivators became more and more intense, and they immediately began talking to each other about major events in the world, as well as various secrets in the cultivation world.

The more Ge Xian listened, the more gloomy he became.

It is not difficult to know from their mouths that the current [Ohara Dynasty] is extremely miserable.

There are wars everywhere, rebels and rebels are everywhere, and a large number of evil spirits such as the Eternal Life Sect and the Ultimate Bliss Sect are raging.In addition, natural disasters occur frequently in major provinces and disasters continue.

The end of the dynasty!

These four words are perfect to describe it.

As he listened, some of the conclusions that Ge Xian had guessed before were gradually confirmed:

"The first one is that most of the cultivation paths in the world, starting from the Taoist realm, are towards non-human beings...the more inhuman they are, the more powerful they become."

"Second, I don't know about the previous dynasties, but the Dayuan Dynasty was a dynasty of supreme demons. From the emperor and prime minister to the frontier officials, down to the county officials and other minor officials, they were all accomplished demons, at least capable of transforming them into demons. Coming from the foundation-building realm with a demon body...it can be said that if you are not a demon, you will not be able to hold an official position in the Great Yuan Dynasty."

"Of course, this statement is a bit extreme. After all, even the officials who have turned into inhuman beings are not all as greedy and cruel as Lu Hualong. At least there are many friendly spirits in [Wanfa Sect], such as that Claimed to be omniscient, he is suspected to be Bai Ze, the prime minister of Wanfa Tianshu."

"So the correct statement may be changed to: Those who are not strong enough will not be able to serve as officials, and they will not be able to rebel."

In addition to these, Ge Xian also heard some interesting anecdotes.

There are even two or three anecdotes where the protagonists are among the evil cultivators around them.

For example, the daughter-in-law of the Wang family, who was sweetly called "sister" by Ge Xian, had a sudden illness and died of her husband on the night of the wedding. She was supposed to be alone for the rest of her life. Unexpectedly, she unexpectedly awakened some kind of talent and was favored by the Wang family, sending her to the secretive and low-key house. [Ancient Tomb Sect] learned how to turn bones into silky palms and return.

Or maybe there is a handsome evil cultivator named "Xu Bailian", who is the son of the Xu family, a wealthy gentry in the city. He is born extremely well and is favored by a powerful female cultivator from the provincial government. It is rumored that he is in the realm of divine connection and follows thousands of people. The [Nine-Headed Witch God], who belongs to the flesh-god lineage in the Dharma religion, is very powerful in his Taoism.

Xu Bailian took the initiative to stand in front of him for three days and easily passed the rejection. He also received many benefits. Among all the evil cultivators, his cultivation level ranked among the top three.

……

Compared with the disaster when leaving the city, the team returning to the city expanded dozens of times, but it was surprisingly smooth.

The Qiantang County Government had received the news early and had prepared porridge at the city gate in advance, as well as bags of grain, land deeds, money and other items. The sincerity of welcoming the refugees could be seen at a glance.

Seeing this, the surviving villagers of Jiudao Village were stunned at first, and then cheered collectively.

Even led by the old village chief, they kowtowed directly in the direction of Lu Hualong's mansion and shouted long live the mountain.

Behind the team, Ge Xian looked at this scene with mixed feelings and sighed in his heart:
“It’s completely unclear what blessings and misfortunes this world may bring.”

"Humanity is difficult!"

When Ge Xian sighed.

The propaganda team was ordered to disband and report here again at the same time tomorrow.

The monks and the ghost generals in the escort team all looked happy and went to the county government office to receive their rewards.

At this time, Ge Xian was no longer involved, and he was half threatening and half admonishing him to be honest and not to have any unnecessary delusions.

Although before that, they all called him little brother.

But they all made a tacit understanding to hide it, not wanting him to take credit, even the sister of the Wang family who had shouted at her all the way.

Ge Xian had expected it, and was even happy to see it. He didn't want to see Lu Hualong, and then be swallowed up and spit out by that guy, turning him into a minion for him to control.

More importantly, Ge Xian really couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to verify the harvest of this trip.

Go home quickly!

The house was as tidy as when she left, because it was still daytime, and the broom spirit was sleeping in her soul house, hanging on the salesman's pole, without any movement.

Ge Xian didn't bother to call her. He only used his extraordinary perception to confirm that there was nothing strange around him, and then took out the bloody "scarlet turtle shell" from the package.

According to Na Wang's wife, the turtle shell can be used to make a piece of protective gear.

Of course, because that weird red turtle is an evil spirit and has the power to suck blood.

In other words, as long as Ge Xian takes it and supplements it, he can gain the power of sucking blood.

But this thing is the inspiration of oneself.

Ge Xian naturally didn't believe that it had such little effect, there must be some secret hidden in it.

Ignoring the dirt, he first lifted it up and then turned it over and inspected it carefully. After finding nothing, he took a knife, cut out the rotten flesh, washed away the dirty blood, and followed the feeling in his heart, starting to explore inch by inch from the inside out.

Not long after, Ge Xian's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have figured out something, and actually pried open the armor plates on the surface of the turtle shell.

Immediately, hundreds of crooked but vaguely legible words appeared. I don’t know what kind of paint was used to write them. They were also scarlet in color and corroded into the bones.

Ge Xian took a quick look and quickly understood: This was a fragment of a page called "The Dragon Transformation Sutra". It contained no other magical powers and spells, only an "Essence of Dragon Transformation" of several hundred words.

"So, the two evil generals and the monks guessed wrong before."

"Although Wei Dashou was not accepted by the Qiantang Dragon Clan and failed to practice the Dragon Clan's magic, he did not know what method he used to obtain a broken page of the Dragon Transformation Sutra... It should not have been obtained through a serious method, otherwise it would not have been hidden so deeply. If If it weren't for me, if Wei Dashou died, this fragment would probably never see the light of day again."

"This Dragon Transformation Essence is a great method of the Dragon Clan. It says that as long as a person awakens the talent of [Call the Wind and Rain], gets some dragon essence and blood, and practices the Dragon Transformation chapter, he can have the power of dragon transformation... huh?"

The thought came to this almost instantly.

A look of ecstasy immediately appeared on Ge Xian's face, and his heart jumped fiercely.

He can call upon the wind and rain.

He has dragon essence and blood.

The Dragon Transformation chapter is in your hand.

In other words, as long as this "Essence of Dragon Transformation" does not lie, he, Ge Xian, can practice now and gain the power of dragon transformation.

But what really makes Ge Xian inexplicably excited is not just this.

At the moment when he saw the Transformation of a Dragon chapter, no matter whether he was sharp or mentally blessed, he clearly realized that there was a path to the sky that truly belonged to him.

"It is impossible for a mortal in this world to embark on cultivation, not because of the extremely dangerous level of rejection, but because of... talent."

"The iron law of the spiritual world: Only those who have awakened their talents can enter the Tao."

"Ordinary monks can awaken a talent in their lifetime and use it as a basis to practice exercises that match their talent."

"The more talented monks are allowed to awaken two kinds of talents, and their path will be smoother."

"The Genius level refers to powerful talents or two, three or even more talents."

"And what I want to verify now is whether the powers and blood I collected are considered my talents?"

"If it counts, doesn't it mean that I can accumulate talents without limit... which means that I can practice all the methods in this world as long as I meet the conditions?"

ps: I plan to write a long story, and the power system will be made in more detail, so you can read it slowly.
