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

“Great Sage! Let's go, time to head out.”

“Squeak squeak! Great King, I'm coming!”

Before dawn, Xu Chengxian called out to Great Sage and left the stone gate of the cave.

Leaving the location of the Spirit Abode, they headed straight west.

【The host has a new task.】

【Task Content: Find a spiritual vein and establish a cave dwelling. Reward Content: Qi Refining Points * 16.】

The system prompt sounded at just the right time.

“...I'm really becoming a workaholic!” Xu Chengxian muttered as he swam forward.

“But it's alright, I can also earn some refining points along the way.”

Lingxiao had just transformed and needed to stabilize her cultivation realm, so she couldn't easily leave the cave.

After the tribulation, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth nourished her soul and body, but after all, she had endured nine tribulation thunders, so she needed to rest and recover.

If not careful, her human form could easily collapse.

Daidai was slow on land and her large size made movement inconvenient, so in the end, only a flower snake and a monkey were left to go out.

“Busy, everyone is busy, being busy is good.” Xu Chengxian thought to himself, I'll be counting on you to carry me in the future.

After Lingxiao transformed, her cultivation progressed rapidly. Within a year or two, she would be able to cross the ninth level and cultivate to the Great Demon realm.

Although the empress sister has a bit of a temper, she never exaggerates.

It seems there shouldn't be a big problem.

“Yunzi, that guy, definitely won't let himself fall too far behind!”

“He is already one step behind Lingxiao, and now he has to catch up.”

As the saying goes, onlookers see the clearest.

These two reborn great powers seemed to have a hidden competitive spirit, striving to keep pace with each other. Xu Chengxian, as a salted fish aspiring to lie flat, saw it in his eyes and rejoiced in his heart.

Having ambition is good!

Roll up! Roll up!

Both of you have grudges to avenge, so you should cultivate diligently and make rapid progress!

And take care of your big brother along the way.

“Birds fly far with phoenixes, squatting beside these dragon and phoenix figures, it's my fate to soar as well.” Xu Chengxian calculated happily in his heart.

Although he, the big brother, is even stronger, can't he enjoy the happiness of gaining without labor?

Who told him he had the conditions!

“Yunzi, that guy, can even refine artifacts.” It was only in the past few days that he learned that his Daoist brother had this skill.

Because the Transformation Lightning Tribulation was more dangerous, Ling Yunzi had to prepare.

The second batch of Transformation Pills he was refining was intended to exchange for a protective magic weapon from General Yu.

Protective magic weapons were rare, and one Transformation Pill was definitely not enough. Moreover, General Yu might not have a suitable one.

Therefore, he wanted to refine all the remaining spiritual materials into spiritual pills first and send them over.

Next month, the Luyang Mountain's spirit stones had to be sent to the Wangyun Mountain's headquarters, so he could entrust the demon general escorting them to help exchange for a suitable one.

If he couldn't exchange for a ready-made magic weapon, he would exchange for some artifact refining materials.

The demon race was not good at refining qi, but they didn't lack spiritual materials.

Refining the exchanged spiritual materials into magic weapons would also be in time.

But in this way, Ling Yunzi's time would be very tight.

“Refining pills again, refining artifacts again, and also cultivating, he can't be left behind by Lingxiao. Tsk, he's busy enough.” Xu Chengxian said with emotion.

Of course, he couldn't share the burden.

All he could do was not add to the other party's burden.

“Originally, I wanted a storage magic weapon.”

When sleeping, he could store the demon beast meat inside. When he wanted to eat, he could just open it.

He didn't have to be like now, where he had to leave the cave when he was hungry and have Mao Shijiu exchange it.

He had inquired that the storage bag had an embedded formation that could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, keeping the items inside from spoiling for a long time.

Since Ling Yunzi was so busy, he was too embarrassed to ask him to do more work.

“After all, I'm the big brother, I can't exploit my little brother like that.” Xu Chengxian thought, he could exploit his Daoist brother, but it had to be in moderation, otherwise he would easily explode.

When the time came, he would ask the escorting demon general to bring one back for him.

At worst, he would just refine some more spirit stones.

“It's just a pity that in almost a year, he hasn't refined a single mid-grade spirit stone.”

The exchange rate between mid-grade and low-grade spirit stones was not a ratio of 1:100.

Instead, it fluctuated around 1:1000.

Moreover, almost no one would use mid-grade to exchange for low-grade.

Xu Chengxian didn't know the reason, but he only needed to know that one mid-grade spirit stone was definitely worth a thousand low-grade spirit stones.

If he could refine one, it would be worth three or four years of hard work.

“Tsk, Great Sage!” Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head and call out to the golden-haired monkey squatting on his back.

“Squeak squeak! Great King!”

“You have to, have to, have to... see if there are any good spiritual veins nearby. Let's find the best one!” Xu Chengxian made a wish to the monkey as if he were the real Great Sage.

Who told Great Sage to really have a talent for treasure hunting, and even cleverly named himself Great Sage?

In this world where luck really existed, maybe it could really work!

“Squeak squeak! The best one!” Great Sage patted his chest upon hearing this, “I'll help Great King find it!”

Meaning, teach it, and rest assured.

“Alright!” Xu Chengxian grinned, “When we find it, I'll give you two more spirit stones so that those two peach trees can grow quickly, bear fruit early, and you can eat spirit peaches.”

The two peach trees were on Daidai's back, and Great Sage had planted them with peach pits.

One was a half-rotten green peach picked up on the way before; the other was the one General Yu used to exchange for the curly-haired lion's spirit pill.

Now they were growing well, both about the thickness of two fingers, but it was still too early to bear fruit.

Moreover, the fruits grown by using spirit stones to plant peach trees would mostly end up in the bellies of their snake family.

How many could Great Sage eat?

So Xu Chengxian was just drawing a pie for Great Sage. It was no different from those bosses who told their employees to work hard, that the company would give them a platform, and that they would get more bonuses at the end of the year if they achieved results.

The year-end bonus the employees received would buy an electric scooter, while the money the boss earned would be enough to exchange for a Land Rover.

But the golden-haired monkey didn't care about these things. He rubbed his hands together happily and nodded repeatedly, looking around with both eyes, determined to find a good spiritual vein.

… …

Several thousand miles of Ascending Dragon Ridge.

Luyang Mountain alone had a radius of five or six hundred miles.

Perhaps because it was located in a barren area, General Yu's area of jurisdiction was divided into larger areas.

It was now summer, and the plants and trees in the mountains were the most lush.

As Xu Chengxian swam along the way, he didn't know how many birds and small beasts he disturbed.

Some low-level demon beasts sensed the blood energy on him and avoided him early.

Among them, a fifth-level Cloud-Stepping Deer ran away as soon as it saw him from afar.

This gave him a very intuitive feeling about his current strength.

He couldn't help but take a look at his cultivation.

【Host: Xu Chengxian】

【Race: Water-Avoiding Snake】

【Grade: Eighth Level (Breaking through to become a ninth-level demon beast requires 50 million blood energy points)】

【Blood Energy: 31294677】

【Physique Realm: Demon Body Realm (7600 / 10000)】

【Soul Realm: Demon Soul Realm (7808 / 10000)】

【Mystical Powers and Combat Skills: (Mystical Power: Qi Devouring and Blood Transformation, Bewitching Hiss (Combat Skills: Snake Bite, Snake Entanglement)】

【Refining Points: 0 / 8】

For more than half a year, mining spirit stones at the bottom of the cave and sleeping in them had resulted in a significant improvement in Xu Chengxian's physical and soul realm cultivation.

However, the difficulty of advancing to the ninth level was much greater than before.

He would need at least a year for his blood energy to reach the point of breaking through.

“When I find a suitable spiritual vein and open up a cave dwelling, I have to sleep well for a period of time.” He secretly calculated.

He would advance to the ninth level first, and then slowly wait for Lingxiao and the others in front.

“Those two guys definitely wouldn't have thought that I would be one step faster than them in advancing to the ninth level.” Thinking of this, Xu Chengxian couldn't help but reveal a cunning smile.

Such a smile appearing on a snake's face was strange and eerie.

Immediately, the sounds of insects chirping around seemed to have disappeared.

“...That's not right!” Xu Chengxian's vertical pupils suddenly shrank, realizing that something was wrong.

What do birds and insects know about beauty and ugliness?

There must be an even more terrifying existence ahead!
