The shopkeeper was a cultivator. Seeing such a snake skin, he was a little surprised and asked Gu Shi,

"Did you kill this snake?"

Gu Shiyi smiled and shook his head.

"How can this villain have this ability? Our master killed him. Our master was anxious to go into the mountains again to look for medicine, so he ordered the villain to take it to the biggest shop in the city and sell it. The villain looked at your house. The largest and most luxurious family in the city came in to show the shopkeeper..."

As the saying goes, a person can be flattered by everything, but after hearing his praise, the shopkeeper had a smile on his plain face, nodded and said,

"You do have some sense!"

When he raised his hand, he didn't see how he was acting. The cloth strap holding the snake skin was disconnected. The snake skin seemed to be spread out by a big hand, and it was all displayed on the counter. Such a big snake attracted people. Many other customers in the shop were watching. The shopkeeper carefully looked at the scars on the snake skin and said,

"It was injured with a Buddhist treasure, but this demon is not low level. It should have been injured when it met your master. Otherwise, it would not have cut its scales so easily..."

After a pause he said,

"There are a few scars on the skin, some damage to the appearance..."

He raised his head and asked Gu Shi,

"How many spiritual stones do you want to exchange for?"

Gu Shiyi scratched the back of his head to make a simple and honest gesture, and responded,

"To tell you the truth, our master loves this villain, and he wants to exchange this skin for some body-refining elixirs or exercises. I wonder if the shopkeeper has them here?"

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper looked Gu Shi up and down and said,

"You are so lucky to have met a good master. I have the elixirs and techniques here..."

After thinking for a while he said,

"Let's go in and talk!"

Gu Shiyi followed him in, and sat down in the inner hall. The shopkeeper, perhaps out of consideration for the insubstantial master behind Gu Shiyi, was polite to Gu Shiyi, invited her to tea, and asked her,

"You are half-demon. Do you want to cultivate as a demon or as a Taoist?"

It is also common for the great monks in the world of cultivation to accept some monsters as bodyguards, mountain guards, divine beasts, or cleaning servants, so he asked this question.

Gu Shi said,

"I want to cultivate demons!"

"Ok!"

The shopkeeper nodded and said,

"That being the case, if you want to cultivate a demon with your half-demon body, you can either ask a big demon to instill demon power into you and completely transform yourself into a demon, or you can take pills to increase the demon power bit by bit and then transform yourself. Of course... the former is the best. It is convenient and quick, but the latter is quite time-consuming, maybe hundreds of years!"

Gu Shi said,

"Our master said that he doesn't deal well with monsters. The previous method is too overbearing and can easily lead to obsession. The latter method is safer!"

The shopkeeper nodded,

"Your master is right, Buddhism and the demon clan have always been at odds!"

When he saw that the snake demon was injured by a Buddhist treasure, he thought that the master Gu Shiyi was a Buddhist.

Gu Shiyi smiled and nodded,

"I wonder if the shopkeeper has any elixirs or techniques here?"

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said,

"I see that you have very little demon power, and I don't have many skills here. You should take a look first..."

After saying that, he raised his hand and several thin small books appeared on the table. Gu Shiyi took them over and looked through them one by one, only to find that they were very similar to his own Heavenly Demon Art, and even the key points were vague, not as good as the Heavenly Demon Art. Jue said it carefully and clearly, and couldn't help but ask curiously,

"How come these exercises are so simple?"

The shopkeeper nodded and said,

"Our human race only has some low-level demon clan practice skills. The truly high-level demon clan skills are secrets that are not passed down to others..."

Gu Shiyi said disappointedly,

"That's it, that's all!"

It's not as good as my Heavenly Demon Jue, so there's no need to buy it!

The shopkeeper nodded,

"I also have some pills here. You may not be able to take pills that are too overbearing. There is a bone-strengthening pill that can gradually increase the strength of your muscles and bones after taking it..."

Gu Shiyi curled his lips after hearing this and thought to himself,

"How come this name is the same as Jianghu Daliwan..."

When the shopkeeper saw her look, he knew he didn't like her, so he said again,

"Another Bailing Pill, which can gather the demon power in the body..."

"Is there anything else?"

"There is another method that can enhance demon power, but it is a bit expensive and needs to be taken for a long time. Your snake skin can be exchanged for one bottle. In my opinion... it is better to exchange for Bailing Pills. Although it is not as good as the previous one, it can To help you gather demonic power, you can ask your master for a corresponding skill book, and then combine it with this elixir... One snake skin can be exchanged for ten bottles..."     "So expensive?"

Gu Shiyi thought to himself,

"The demonic power in my body is too weak now, so it would be good to take the pill that enhances the demonic power, but the price is too expensive. I might as well exchange it for the Bailing Pill. Don't I still have the Heavenly Demon Art?"

He nodded immediately and said,

"I'll change it to Bai Ling Wan!"

Seeing that she listened to the advice, the shopkeeper nodded and said,

"very good!"

So with a flip of his hand, ten small bottles appeared on the table. Gu Shiyi knew that this was the benefit of having a storage bag, so he couldn't help but ask with envy,

"Shopkeeper, I would like to ask how many spiritual stones it takes to buy this storage bag?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said,

"A normal storage bag can be owned with ten low-grade spiritual stones, but it can only hold ten bottles at most. And if it is a medium-grade or high-grade storage bag, or even a mustard seed space, then that The amount of spiritual stones needed is huge..."

After speaking, he pointed to his waist and said,

"The space inside a high-quality storage bag like mine is about the size of this room, and the market price for top-grade spiritual stones is 100 yuan!"

Gu Shiyi had never used spirit stones before, so he didn't know what the market price was, so he asked,

"Then if it's my snake skin, how many pieces will it take to get it?"

The shopkeeper laughed, quite loudly this time.

"There aren't many snake skins like that, just three to five hundred will be enough!"

Gu Shiyi's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide. The country bumpkin looked like he had never seen the world, which made the shopkeeper laugh again. He smiled and said,

"I am rarely happy today, so I will give you one more piece of news. Someone posted a reward in the city yesterday, saying that a three-legged golden toad appeared in Broken Dragon Ridge. If you can capture it, you can go there. I'll change this to a storage bag like this..."

He paused and smiled again,

"The three-legged golden toad has already transformed. Using its demon infant to refine elixirs can make Yuanying stage monks leap into the spirit transformation stage..."

A whole level of improvement is a huge temptation for cultivators, but if the shopkeeper tells it to a little shrimp like Gu Shiyi, it is purely for entertainment. If it were any other thin-skinned person, he would definitely be embarrassed. He couldn't help but Gu Shiyi's face had long been thickened by the wind and frost in the world. Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he smiled on his face and said,

"You are just kidding a villain. How dare a villain think of such a treasure!"

When the shopkeeper saw that she was not annoyed, he looked at her condescendingly and said,

"I'm not joking with you. Of course you don't dare to think about such things, but in the past few days, many cultivators will enter Longtou Mountain in Duanlong Ridge, and Longtou Mountain has always been shrouded in poisonous miasma. Few people can enter, and in order to hunt the three-legged golden toad, several sects worked together to set up a large formation yesterday to temporarily disperse the poisonous miasma for a month. You only need to hand over a low-grade spiritual stone to enter it. , if you are brave enough, you can try your luck by following others, and maybe even pick up some leftovers, then you will also benefit a lot!"

Although the shopkeeper's words were unpleasant, he told the truth, and he was kind enough to give Gu Shiyi some advice!

In a place like the world of cultivation, where the jungle is strong and the jungle is strong, it is a blessing to have someone to teach you. There is no shame in picking up leftovers. As long as you can achieve the supreme path, who cares whether you begged or robbed?

Gu Shiyi was a man who knew what was good and what was good. He stood up and saluted solemnly to the shopkeeper.

"Thank you for your advice, sir!"

The shopkeeper nodded,

"Go!"

But with a wave of his hand, Gu Shi saw Yihua standing outside the shop. He looked around, and the pedestrians on the street were surprised by her sudden appearance. They walked away and no one paid attention to her. , Gu Shiyi then raised his legs and left.

In order to save money, Gu Shiyi followed her usual frugality and found the smallest and shabbiest inn to stay in. However, she did not treat her companions badly. She bought a live chicken for the red fox to eat and had a simple meal herself. , after washing up, he sat cross-legged on the bed, but did not meditate. He just took out a bottle of Bailing Pills, rubbed it in the palm of his hand, and stared at the ground in front of him with his eyes empty, obviously distracted.

Li Yaner saw her thoughts and asked,

"Eleven, do you want to go to Duanlong Ridge?"

Gu Shiyi thought for a while and nodded.

"I wanna go!"

Li Yaner said,

"Eleven, monsters and beasts are rampant in Broken Dragon Ridge, and many cultivators go in to collect spiritual medicine to kill monsters. People in the cultivator world kill people just like crushing an ant, without blinking an eye. You go I'm just afraid..."

There are some things that don’t need to be said, everyone understands!

Gu Shiyi nodded seriously and said,

"You're right...but..."

She turned to look at the clay figurine beside her,

"Whether I am cultivating demons or cultivating demons, isn't it all against nature? Even though I have been taught to be cautious since I was a child, it is important to save my life in everything. Only by being careful can you sail a thousand-year ship safely, but... But... Yan'er, I want to try my luck... My ability is so low now. Any cultivator or a big snake can bully me. If I continue to be a tortoise, when will I be able to... Grow up? Not to mention becoming a big monster, I can't even be a little spirit. If I'm not careful, I will become a fish on the chopping board, stuffing people's teeth... Yan'er... I want to become strong quickly and protect you. Also protect yourself..."

It’s not easy to raise a family!

Gu Shiyi felt that he was naturally soft-hearted. No matter whether the king or the red fox followed him, he never wanted them to suffer along with him!

Gu Shiyi was a girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes. When she looked at her best friend, her eyes seemed to be twinkling like little stars. Li Yaner sighed secretly, feeling moved in her heart.

"Eleven, she is really a good girl who is very loyal and loyal!"

Such a good girl, to be her good sister is really a blessing that I have cultivated in three lifetimes!
