Longevity starts with eating monsters

Chapter 22: The Transaction with Wang Niantian

Xiayuan County, shrouded in darkness, is now more peaceful than usual.

There was no sound of suonas signaling the passing of ghost soldiers, nor was there paper money flying all over the sky. Many people were surprised by this and didn't know what had happened in the city.

In the night, Lu Chen's figure shuttled through the streets like a flying bird.

He did not rush to the City God Temple immediately.

"Although I am in a hurry, I am not a fool."

After finding an abandoned alley, Lu Chen sat down there: "If we kill our way to the City God Temple like this, I'm afraid we'll be discovered by the demons before we even get through the door."

"I need to hide my identity and conceal my aura."

"Only by not letting the demons discover my strength can I sneak into the City God Temple and get close to them, so that I can find a good opportunity to take action."

However, the problem is that Lu Chen does not know the secret method to conceal his Qi.

Not only the aura, the demons can also smell the scent of outsiders, so Song Kui and Yun Wanrong had never thought of such assassination methods.

But Lu Chen is different from them, he has other channels.

".Delusion Heaven."

Taking out the human skin book of "The Great Compassion Mantra of the Yin-Yang Conquest of the Devil", Lu Chen whispered the strange names in the book, and soon changes appeared on the book.

"Kid. Huh?"

The words on the book changed. At first, they were nonchalant, and then suddenly stopped: "You broke through!?"

"It was just luck." Lu Chen nodded. "I fought a tiger monster and survived. I was able to break through in the battle. I can only say that I have good talent."

"I see."

The human skin book flipped, and Wang Niantian inside seemed to have figured something out, saying, "Since you were able to break through to the Great Mastery of the Yin Fu, then a year or two has passed in the outside world, right? I thought only one day had passed. It seems that my perception of time became too slow during my sleep."

"So? Now that you have awakened me again, have you decided to revive me?"

"We'll talk about that next time."

Lu Chen shook his head and said, "Even if I really want to revive you, my current strength is not enough. So I plan to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"I need a secret method to conceal my breath." Lu Chen whispered, "It must be a secret method that can conceal my breath and smell even from demons."

"I'm going to use it to fight the demons."

"After the task is completed, I will give you the body of the demon I killed."

The deal proposed by Lu Chen caused Wang Niantian to fall into a brief silence. After a long while, he said again: "How can you guarantee that you will fulfill your promise?"

"Pay the deposit first."

Lu Chen untied the cloth bag on his body, and then poured out a pile of demon meat, which was what he had left over: "One word, do you want to make this deal?"

".Can."

Wang Niantian did not hesitate too much. Lu Chen's request was not difficult for him, and he really needed blood and flesh to nourish himself. When he was in Wang Shenlou's hands before, he could also devour the essence and spirit collected by Wang Shenlou. However, now that Wang Shenlou is dead, he must find a new way to make money.

"Put me on that pile of flesh first."

"Give me half of the secret book first."

".I don't like to suffer a loss."

After a moment's silence, lines of words quickly appeared on the human skin book. After Lu Chen memorized them firmly, he threw the other party onto the demon's flesh and blood.

"Suck--!"

The human-skin book seemed to have turned into a gluttonous beast, and the flesh and blood of the demons on the ground only lasted for a few breaths before it sucked everything up.

"Tsk tsk tsk"

I saw blood flowing in the human skin book, and the delusion in the book was a little confused at this moment. Although the amount of blood and flesh was very sufficient, I didn't know why.
"Why is it tasteless?"

In the past, when it devoured flesh and blood, it could extract the essence of the demon's cultivation from the flesh and blood. For it, this was a real tonic.

But this time it didn't extract anything.

Is it because it has been left for too long and has dissipated?

Or was he eaten by the human outside. No, that's impossible. Extracting the essence, energy and spirit from flesh and blood is my unique method. That kid couldn't do it.

While Wang Niantian was still thinking, Lu Chen urged him impatiently: "What about the second half?"

".Don't worry."

Wang Niantian thought about it and did not play any tricks. He directly presented the entire secret method and then smiled and said, "I look forward to you fulfilling your promise."

"It's best not to play tricks on a corpse of a Yin Fu Dacheng demon."

"You should understand that if you borrow something, you must return it. It is not difficult to borrow again. If you don't fulfill your promise this time, I will not agree to help you next time."

"Boy, you will need my help a lot in the future."

".I know this very well."

Lu Chen looked at the human skin book in his hand, licked his lips, swallowed his saliva, and nodded heavily, his small eyes filled with sincerity.

Delusion: “?”

Why does it feel a little wrong? Never mind, it must be an illusion.

The next second, the words on the human skin book gradually dimmed, and it was obvious that Wang Niantian had fallen into a deep sleep again. It was going to slowly digest this batch of flesh and blood.

Seeing this, Lu Chen also closed the book, and at the same time recalled the secret method he had just memorized: "Tibetan Esoteric Zen of Withering and Flourishing, it seems that Wang Niantian did not lie to me."

The effect of this secret method is just as the name suggests, "hiding".

A gentleman hides his weapon in his body and moves when he waits for time.

Internal strength, Qi and blood, fist intention, all of them are hidden and accumulated continuously until they are needed and then burst out in one breath.

It can not only suppress one's breath, but also help one to explode. It is a real "assassination technique".

However, Wangniantian also said in the notes that although this secret method is extremely effective, it is also very difficult to practice and cannot be mastered overnight.

However, Lu Chen is still very confident in his talent.

"Taotie Ding!"

[Jia Zi Magical Skill: 210 Years of Skill]

【Tibetan Esoteric Zen: Not Yet Entered】

"First, take ten years of skills to test the waters."

[After ten years of hard work, there has been no progress in the practice of Tibetan Buddhism.]

【Tibetan Esoteric Zen: Not Yet Entered】

".Gone!?"

Lu Chen's expression changed slightly. Even if he threw in ten years of martial arts skills, not a single splash could be made. The last time he encountered such martial arts was when he used the Yin-Yang Combination to fight the Heavenly Demon and the Great Compassion Mantra.

However, the Tibetan Buddhist Zen of Rise and Fall concerns one's own life and death, so one cannot save money at this time.

"Shuttle!"

The remaining two hundred years of skills were completely transformed.

[After sixty years of hard work, the vast inner force has gathered in your body, and the Tibetan Esoteric Zen of withering and flourishing has finally shown a trend of condensing the energy channels.]

【Tibetan Esoteric Zen: Introduction】

[After 110 years of hard work, the Tibetan Esoteric Zen of withering and flourishing condensed the Qi channel, which is located in the Dantian and the lower abdomen. The Qi channel is shaped like a dead tree.]

【Tibetan Buddhism: Minor Achievement】

[After 210 years of hard work, the power you have accumulated in your meridians has reached its limit and has suddenly blossomed, like a dead tree blooming. This has allowed you to instantly burst out with strength several times greater than normal. This transformation from withering to flourishing, the ultimate sublimation of the artistic conception, has given you a completely new understanding of this secret technique.]

【Tibetan Buddhism: Great Accomplishment】

"Huh, it seems that my talent is better."

Lu Chen's mind moved, and he started practicing his skills. Then his whole appearance changed suddenly.

The first thing that changed was his body. Originally, due to his martial arts training, he had bulging muscles and an excellent body, and every move he made was full of power.

However, now, his figure has gradually shrunk, his hair has grown long, and his skin has become fairer and more delicate. This subtle change is like a warrior who has trained in the hottest days of summer and the coldest days of winter, suddenly turning into a weak scholar who can't even tie a chicken.

However, hidden beneath this weak appearance is a raging fire that is about to explode!
Lu Chen could clearly feel that his Dantian was like a furnace, burning fiercely yet being trapped deep inside his Dantian.

Every breath you take adds fuel to the flame.

This flame continues to expand with every exercise.

"very good."

It's time to act.

The prison office.

"Song Kui! Come out!"

The huge government office was now surrounded by Chen Zhubu, Lin Xianwei and a group of officers and soldiers from the county government.

Among them, Chen Zhubu even shouted in public: "The prison warden Song Kui deceived his superiors and subordinates and deliberately let the tiger monster into the city to harm the victims. After investigation, the evidence is conclusive!"

At this point, Chen Zhubu almost burst into tears: "The court trusted you and used you, but in the end you got this result."

"Such a traitor and a villain, only killing him can appease the people's anger!"

"Today, I am pleading for the people, Song Kui! Why don't you come out and surrender!?"

The words were so sonorous and the tone was so severe that it seemed as if it were real.

Upon seeing this scene, Judge Wu, who was standing at the front of the team, the Day and Night Wandering God, the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demon, and the five-headed Yin Fu demon all grinned.

“I never get tired of watching this scene.”

"To kill someone is to destroy their heart. How terrible."

"Brother, do you want to just charge in?"

"Don't worry, just play for a while and watch how these people and animals kill each other."

at this time--

"boom!"

There was a loud bang, and the door of the prison opened, and Song Kui walked out slowly.

However, to the surprise of the demons, there was no fear on Song Kui's face, not even anger. He just looked at them with a look of deep surprise on his face.
