With the power of AI, you become a giant in the magic world!

“…Alas…In the mountain stronghold, Brother Fan fought against the three leaders of the Blood Evil Stronghold alone.

The leader turned out to be a master of the Mysterious Flow Realm, but Brother Fan still did not lose and killed a group of bandits.

It’s a pity that he was accidentally attacked by the leader of the bandits.

Brother Yu and Miss Bai have a deep relationship with Brother Fan.

In the end, the three of them and the bandits did not fight to death together, and only Gu survived.

But the way down the mountain was cut off, and Gu was looking for other ways, so he was delayed for a few days.”

In the inn, Gu Xia shared the story he had just made up with Lei Tianyuan.

Lei Tianyuan sighed: "Alas! Hero Fan and his fellow apprentices are truly righteous men!

Mr. Gu, can you tell me where the cave is? I can go and collect the bodies of the three heroes and send them back to their hometown."

"This... before the bandits died, they knocked over the oil lamps, and a fire started. Gu didn't have time to collect the bodies of Brother Fan and others, and could only watch them and the mountain stronghold turn into ashes."

Gu Xia knew that many details of the story he made up were vague, so he simply squeezed out some tears and pretended to be sad and self-blaming.

Anyway, there was no other living person to ask, so Lei Tianyuan couldn't help but believe it.

Besides, he also beautified Fan Tianyang, a despicable villain who used his fellow apprentice as a shield became a hero who died of exhaustion to protect everyone.

I believe his spirit in heaven should be happy.

Lei Tianyuan: "Mr. Gu, please accept my condolences. I have decided to gather the local celebrities and wealthy families to erect a monument for Mr. Fan, Mr. Yu and Miss Bai!"

"How about this, I will also take out one cent of my bounty to erect a monument for Mr. Fan!"

Gu Xia mentioned the bounty at the right time and told Mayor Lei that he was still alive and the Blood Evil Village was gone, so it was time to dig out the gold.

Lei Tianyuan: "Mr. Gu's generosity will definitely make Mr. Fan feel relieved if he knew about it.

By the way, I wonder if Mr. Gu has checked the burned Blood Evil Village?

Generally, the warehouses of bandits are underground and have fire prevention measures. Besides, gold and silver are not afraid of fire.

The people's wealth that was looted from the surrounding villages and many caravans in my town is stored in the village.

If we can find some of it, it will reduce the losses of this town to some extent."

"This... Gu doesn't know." Gu Xia shook his head repeatedly.

Of course he understood that Lei Tianyuan was asking him if he had found the looted goods of the bandits and whether he could take them out and hand them over to the town.

Gu Xia was not stupid. When he came, he buried all the silver and jewelry he found in an unmanned place, and took them with him when he left.

Besides, robbery in Xuesha Village requires killing. Those owners have long passed away, so how can they be found?

"Okay... I will order people to look for it in the mountains tomorrow, and by the way, see if there are any remaining bones of Fan Daxia and others, and bury them together."

Hearing the other party's tone, Lei Tianyuan knew that no matter whether Gu Xia took it or not, he would not be able to get a penny from him.

Gu Xia: "Then I will draw a route map for you so that you can enter the village."

"Mr. Gu is unwilling to show the way in person tomorrow?" Lei Tianyuan asked in confusion.

Gu Xia: "I will leave for Tianxuanmen tomorrow morning."

"So soon?"

"Yes."

"Mr. Gu, why don't you stay for ten days or half a month, until the end of the year. Mr. Gu has eliminated harm for us, and we haven't yet properly repaid you."

Lei Tianyuan tried to persuade him to stay. Many details of the annihilation of Xuesha Village have not been investigated clearly. He wants to inquire about them one by one and then record them in a book based on the traces at the scene.

This is related to his political achievements this year, and he has to give an explanation to Longming Sect.

Although Longming Sect is not as terrifying as Tianxuanmen, it is not easy to mess with.

It's not that Fan Tianyang and the other two can't die here, but they have to die clearly and clearly, and they can't just let Gu Xia say it.

Gu Xia: "Hehe, Gu has no great achievements. It was all thanks to the three brothers and sisters of Master Fan who fought to the death to kill the bandits. I will not accept the reward without any merit."

Lei Tianyuan continued to persuade him: "No, no, at least let me hold a celebration banquet for Mr. Gu."

Gu Xia: "Thank you for your kindness, Mayor Lei. My generation of Xuanqi practitioners must fight for every second and cannot delay the time of cultivation."

"It's just a few days, it's okay! It's okay..."

Lei Tianyuan's smile suddenly froze and his voice became smaller.

He found that Gu Xia's eyes gradually changed when he looked at him, and a chill ran through his body for no reason, and his heart kept accelerating.

"Sorry! Gu can't keep the master of the sect waiting for a long time!" Gu Xia's tone was cold and he emphasized the master of the sect.

"Okay! Okay! According to Mr. Gu's wishes, I will hold a banquet tonight to see you off.

I'll leave first." Lei Tianyuan hurriedly smiled and left.

Gu Xia sat alone in the room.

"I almost couldn't hold back my killing intent just now! This is the sequelae of the blood demon transformation..."

Since the day when the Blood Demon Village transformed into a demon, Gu Xia has become inexplicably impulsive. There is always a killing intent in his heart to kill everything from time to time, wanting to blow up all the people or things that he doesn't like.

The reason is revealed in Chaosha's practice notes. It is because the blood demon's evil spirit has accumulated too much and has begun to affect his mind.

He returned to the bedroom of the inn, sat cross-legged on the bed, and put his mind into his body.

I saw a group of crimson Xuanqi gathered in Gu Xia's Dantian, and the acupoints that had been opened around him also flashed with strange red light.

He tried to push the Dantian Xuanqi to form a vortex to absorb the external Xuanli.

Within ten breaths, Gu Xia felt inexplicably manic in his heart, and instinctively wanted to kill and want to suck blood.

"It still doesn't work. If I don't solve this problem, I can't make any further progress in Xuangong.

I can only practice dual cultivation, cultivating the soul and refining the body at the same time, to suppress the side effects of the blood demon technique."

The blood demon evil energy gathered by the blood demon technique will gradually corrode the mind. The worst thing is that once you have devoured blood food, even if you no longer practice blood magic skills, evil spirits will still slowly accumulate.

To alleviate the corrosion of the blood demon's evil spirit, one should not frequently devour blood food. In the enlightenment state, one should devour blood food at most two to three times a month, otherwise it will be corroded into a blood demon.

Gu Xia, on the other hand, devoured blood food nearly twenty times a month in Xianfu City, and then continued to swallow Qi and Blood Pills every day for more than twenty days.

With his frequency, even Xuanliu warriors should have been corrupted by the evil spirit of the blood demon and turned into a blood demon.

Fortunately, Gu Xia asked Xingchen Ai to practice for him, which inadvertently prevented the evil spirit from directly corroding his mind, but the evil energy hidden in his body was a hidden bomb after all.

It wasn't until the explosion occurred on the day the Blood Evil Village was annihilated that it accidentally saved Gu Xia's life.

In fact, there are early signs of evil spirits.

In the past, the Xuan Qi vortex in Gu Xia's body would always collapse for no reason, and the computing power required by Xingchen to maintain Xuan Gong practice gradually increased. He also often dreamed of evil spirits begging for his life.

These were all the effects of evil spirits, but Gu Xia didn't pay attention.

Now that the hidden danger of the blood demon's evil spirit has completely exploded, Gu Xia's mind seems to be losing control.

If he continues to absorb mysterious energy or swallows Qi and Blood Pills, he will inevitably face blood disaster again.

To resist the corrosion of the blood demon's evil spirit, Gu Xia could only try to increase the strength of his soul.

In other words, he wanted to cultivate his soul, and he happened to have a secret book of soul cultivation in his hand.

"Without further ado."

Just do it.

Gu Xia took a shower and changed clothes first.

After sitting for a long time until you feel calm, you slowly take out a stick of incense from your bag.

This is the condensing incense he found in the room of Demon Dao Sima Bu. It is made of various precious medicinal materials and is a necessary prop for the first step of soul cultivation.

The cost of making a stick of incense is 100 taels of silver. Fortunately, after the induction is completed, this item is no longer a necessity.

"It seems that both Xuanwu and soul cultivation require a lot of money!"

Gu Xia thought to himself, and then he lit the incense, closed his eyes and started the first step of soul cultivation - Xuanxu Induction.
