Sleeping for a second increases my blood energy. I become the strongest sky-swallowing snake

Bang!

Bang! Bang!

“Awoo?” Wolfy was awakened by a series of tremors beneath him.

The movement seemed to be coming from the bottom of the cave.

“Is Little Bro being so diligent today?” Going to mine and refine spirit stones so early in the morning?

But turning his head to look around, he heard a burst of snoring.

Following the sound, he looked back and saw Wolf Two lying on his back, fast asleep.

“Hmm? Not Little Bro?”

Bang!

Bang! Bang!

Another tremor, even more violent than before.

“What’s going on?” Wolfy flipped over and stood up, lowering his body, pricking up his ears, carefully distinguishing the sounds.

The sound seemed to be coming from the spirit cave next door.

“Awoo!”

“That snake family? It’s Fatty Flower Snake!”

“Little Bro, wake up, stop sleeping!”

Wolfy rushed over and slapped Wolf Two awake.

“Awoo!” Wolf Two was slapped awake, looking dazed, “Big Bro?”

“Get up! Fatty Flower Snake next door is declaring war on us!”

“Declaring war?” Wolf Two shook his head, “Big Bro, can’t we just ignore him? We can’t beat him anyway.”

Just then, bang, bang, bang sounds came again.

Wolfy lowered his voice and said, “Even if we can’t beat him, we can’t allow him to provoke us like this! Let’s go, let’s go mine spirit stones too! We can’t let him succeed!”

“……Big Bro, you just want to pull me up to mine spirit stones, right?”

“Nonsense! Big Bro is teaching you how to fight for pride!”

Thus, soon, the sound of bang, bang, bang echoed from the bottom of this cave as well.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound reached the other side, alarming Ling Xiao and the others who were still cultivating.

Xu Chengxian at the bottom of the cave also heard it.

“Those two rascally dogs next door, so early today?” He muttered, his movements not stopping.

Blood energy surged into the tip of his snake tail, slamming it against the cave wall.

Bang! Bang!

Xu Chengxian released his divine sense to explore, following the cracks, searching for traces of spirit stones.

The power of divine sense played an extremely significant role at this time.

It was much more accurate than sensing with demon power.

Being able to accurately determine the location of spirit stones and then focus on mining, naturally, the efficiency significantly increased.

Spirit stones.

They were the essence of stone, born from within the spirit veins, containing rich spiritual energy.

The texture was hard and smooth, warm and delicate, with pure and bright colors.

The colors varied depending on the spirit vein they came from, some blue, some green, some red, some purple, some yellow, some white, and some transparent or multicolored.

The appearance was similar to jade, and after mining and refining, they were even more radiant, like spiritual objects.

“No, these spirit stones are spiritual objects in the first place.”

Bang!

Xu Chengxian swung his tail again, the surging blood energy impacting one of the cracks, knocking down several more pieces of gravel, enlarging it.

The bottom of the cave where spirit stones were nurtured was very close to the root of the spirit vein, so the surrounding cave walls were very hard under the tempering of spiritual energy, making it difficult to break through.

The more concentrated the spiritual energy, the stronger the stone.

Therefore, higher-grade spirit caves required higher magic power to ensure mining efficiency.

Otherwise, there would be no need to compete for spirit caves after the arena battle.

This was done to ensure that the resident demons had enough power.

“Tsk.”

Xu Chengxian looked at the results, not very satisfied.

Outside, this tail swing could at least smash a ton of boulders.

Here, it could only open a small window of a few feet.

But this also had a benefit, which was that there was no need to worry about collapse at all.

He could act with confidence.

“Again!”

Surging blood energy, the snake tail as a whip, slamming hard!

It was just right to forge the body and improve the physical realm!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After slamming it several times, he finally approached the place where the divine sense judged the spiritual energy to be the most concentrated.

At this time, he could already feel the refreshing coolness of the spiritual energy rushing towards him.

Spiritual energy had no temperature, this feeling came from the clarity that spiritual energy gave to the spiritual platform of the sea of consciousness.

Buzz——

Using the snake tail to gently tap the window of a few feet that had been opened.

The exuberant blood energy was poured into the window, revealing a bit of scarlet red.

The red light gradually disappeared, Xu Chengxian cast the magic formula for refining spirit stones, using blood energy to refine this three-foot jade.

Others would not, and would not dare to do this.

The consumption of magic power took time to recover, and also, there was no way to judge whether this essence of stone had reached the degree of condensing spirit stones.

Spirit stones, or rather, ordinary spirit stones, were not in a state of being nurtured one by one, waiting to be mined.

Instead, the refiner needed to judge the part of a jade that contained the most concentrated spiritual energy, and cut and refine it with magic power and magic formulas.

According to Xu Chengxian’s feeling, the refining process was a kind of tempering, or rather, smelting.

If the spiritual energy in the jade did not reach the concentration of a low-grade spirit stone, it would appear cracks or even directly crack under the scouring of the magic power cast with the formula.

“Done, another one.”

A quarter of an hour later, a dark green spirit stone was led out by blood energy and appeared in front of him.

Divine sense swept over, confirming that there were no flaws.

A spirit stone had to be flawless, without any leaks, to be considered qualified.

Otherwise, the spiritual energy inside would continue to dissipate until it became ordinary jade.

Just like the surrounding jade left after refining the spirit stone, the spiritual energy in them was rapidly dissipating.

This was also the reason why the spirit cave could always be filled with spiritual energy.

“Ah ha!” Xu Chengxian felt very comfortable in this place full of spiritual energy.

He immediately decided to lie down and sleep for a while.

Without the most concentrated part of the spiritual energy, this cave wall would slowly become less hard than before due to the dissipation of spiritual energy.

“So taking a nap and then continuing to mine is like sharpening a knife before cutting wood.”

Having found a good excuse for himself, he lay down without any psychological burden.

With his efficiency, he could mine at least two spirit stones today.

This was something that Ling Xiao and Ling Yunzi could not compare to.

Normally, a seventh-order demon could mine a spirit stone in a high-grade middle-grade spirit cave in two or three days, which was considered good.

And Xu Chengxian, relying on his solid soul, tenacious and sharp divine sense, and even more abundant blood energy, and learning the brute force mining method of Wavey and Wolf Two, had increased the efficiency by several times.

He would not even feel tired because of it.

Therefore, even if he slept more time at the bottom of the cave than he worked, Ling Xiao and the others above did not feel strange.

If they did not hear any movement, they would at most think that he had consumed too much blood energy.

Blood energy was different from demon power, spiritual power, and other magic power, and could not be recovered through meditation.

Therefore, it was normal to need more time to rest.

So from this day on, the bottom of the cave was occupied by Xu Chengxian.

One-third of the time was used to mine spirit stones.

Two-thirds of the time was used to sleep soundly.

Occasionally, he would take the time to put the broken waste spirit stones, that is, the remaining jade after refining the spirit stones, into snake skin bags—bags made of real snake skin—and take them to the top for Ling Xiao to handle.

The empress, who had not yet cultivated into a great demon, had shown the domineering spirit of an empress since deciding to transform first.

She had completely gathered a group of small demons such as Cat Nineteen to run errands for her.

In just over ten days, she had found eighteen kinds of auxiliary transforming grass, one of the spiritual materials for refining the transformation pill.

A kind of auxiliary material called Chijin Crystal, used to pad the bottom of the alchemy furnace to control the furnace temperature.

“Refining the transformation pill not only requires a main medicine, transforming grass, plus twelve auxiliary medicines, but also three kinds of spiritual materials for modulating the pill fire.” Xu Chengxian felt troubled just thinking about it.

Fortunately, he did not need to worry about this.

As long as he handed over the mined spirit stones and waste spirit stones to Ling Xiao and Ling Yunzi, they would find a way to obtain them.

In this way, he was busy for more than ten days.

“Whoa!”

This day, when he woke up and was about to get up to work, he glanced at the panel and found that he was only a little bit of blood energy away from being promoted to an eighth-order demon.

So, he decided to sleep until he was promoted!

He closed his eyes and fell asleep again in the midst of the spiritual energy.

[Blood Energy + 1+1 + 1+1 ...]

[Blood Energy + 1+1 + 1+1 + 1 ...]

......

[Congratulations to the host for being promoted to an eighth-order demon!]

[Blood Energy + 1+1 + 1+1 ...]
