This Is Exactly How Cultivation Works

Chapter 34: Blood of the Skyroc

Views:

The harvest was average.

Not everyone is as wealthy as Zhu Bo.

Although She Xuan was a wealthy woman, she was only modestly wealthy and was not as generous as Zhu Bo's boss. Lu Bei took away the banknotes and the secret techniques of demon cultivation, ignored some large and small cloths with obvious female features, and carefully studied a pile of bottles and jars.

Zhu Bo mentioned repeatedly that She Xuan was good at poisoning. Lu Bei happened to be very curious about Mongolian and Chinese medicines, so he opened them one by one and dripped the powder or liquid on She Xuan's body one by one.

The effect was mediocre. She Xuan's face turned blue and purple. She tilted her head and spat out a mouthful of black blood. Then she curled up like a dead snake and didn't move.

"As expected, pharmacology knowledge requires the guidance of professionals, and self-study is not enough."

Lu Bei abandoned the bottles and jars and went to the altar to check. Soon, he found the keyhole and inserted the key he got from killing monsters.

The altar glowed with light, evaporating the impure snake blood on it, revealing three sealed white porcelain bottles.

In addition, there was a letter pressed by three porcelain bottles.

Lu Bei vaguely saw the words "My disciple's personal letter" and was silent for a moment before opening the letter and reading it.

My disciple, you have arrived here, which means you have found the secret letter that I left in the underground palace of the deep well. You are worthy of being the disciple I have carefully selected. Although I don’t know your name at this moment, I have full confidence in my vision. You have extraordinary talent and will surely carry forward the Yuhua Sect...

Lu Bei: …

There was a mouthful of soup stuck in my throat. I didn't know how to spit it out, so I swallowed it back and continued reading.

The mystery has been solved. The surprise that the master left for you is not the golden spider with a Buddha face. With your cultivation level of perfect foundation building, you will surely pass it safely.

Lu Bei: …

Great perfection of foundation building, what great perfection of foundation building, did he jump off the map

Yes, no one has ever gone down into the well at Yuhua Gate.

These three bottles of demon blood were obtained by my master after traveling far and wide and going through untold hardships. There is one snake, one dragon, and one Tianpeng. You and I are both from the Yuhua Sect, so naturally we should choose the blood of Tianpeng. As for the blood of the dragon and the snake, you can deal with it as you wish.

If you really have nowhere to put it, don't throw it away, just leave it here. When the day comes when you are unable to break the impasse and seek immortality, go to the far west to catch a ferocious beast, lock it here, and let my disciple come to challenge it. Wouldn't that be great!

Don't worry. Your master has measured this place. The water system here is luxuriant and the formation is natural. If there is no disaster of spiritual vein collapse, it will not be discovered within 200 years. It is very safe.

Lu Bei: …

He quietly put away the letter, his mind was complicated, thousands of words turned into one sentence: "I was worried about bringing discredit to my master, it seems that I was naive, I just loosened up, the cheap master is the real thief!"

After thinking about it carefully, Lu Bei found that it was true. Very good, the reason why the dilapidated mountain of Sanqing Peak was neglected was found.

"But what's the use of giving me the blood of the Sky Peng? Can I become a demon cultivator by drinking it?"

After confirming that his cheap master Mo Buxiu had amazing cultivation, Lu Bei decided to trust him for once. He raised his hand and took away the dragon and roc bloodlines, leaving only one snake blood. He held it in his hand and squatted in front of She Yan.

The seal was opened, and the smell of blood spread. The curled up She Xuan trembled and woke up. She looked at the porcelain bottle with shining eyes and raised her hand...

Bang!

Lu Bei pushed She Xuan away and said with a kind smile, "Do you want it?"

She Xuan: “…”

"Swear an oath and serve me as your master. I will introduce you to a livelihood and ensure that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life."

Lu Bei looked She Xuan up and down. Although she was a little older, she had a first-rate figure and a stunning face. Coupled with the charm of a demon cultivator and her identity as a snake spirit, she still had a lot of selling points.

I don’t know what the little foxes at home will look like in the future, but this one in front of me can be used.

Again, he is very useful.

"Don't even think about it!"

She Xuan was filled with grief and indignation at Lu Bei's probing gaze. She suppressed her desire and refused to yield: "If I serve you as my master, my life will be worse than death. It would be better for me to be killed by you with one blow."

"That makes sense, but it's a bit unreasonable."

Lu Bei made a concession: "How about this, you swear to work for me for three years... five years, no, ten years. After ten years, the road will be wide open, I will go my way, you go your way, and there will be no relationship between you and me anymore."

"… "

She Xuan closed her eyes and said nothing. Being a slave for ten years was no different from being a slave for a lifetime. Besides, judging from Lu Bei's attitude of torturing the snake and wanting to kill it, it was still a question whether she could survive for another ten years.

"Auntie Snake, a snake should not be too greedy. You have earned a life by surviving."

Lu Bei drew his sword and rubbed it on the ground: "I can also use my character to make a promise to you. In the next ten years, you and I will only be subordinate to each other. I will not take the initiative to cause harm to your body. Is that okay?"

Just you! Do you still have character

She Xuan almost laughed out of anger. It wasn’t that she was disdainful, but she really was.

"Speak, if you can, just hiss, if you can't, I'll get a piece of snake skin."

"Only I swore an oath, and you promised verbally?"

"Aunt Snake, don't be so ungrateful. If you really break your oath, you will only lose your life, but I will lose my reputation!"

"… "

The shameless words almost made She Xuan die on the spot. She took a deep look at the snake blood containing pure blood, then looked at Lu Bei's smiling and kind face. Her breathing quickened and she stretched out her hand tremblingly.

Sometimes, it is not shameful to sell your soul and principles, but it is shameful not to get a good price.

Now that the price is right, she decided to work for ten years.

It is really not easy to practice. If she doesn't agree today, she will die. Even if she can survive, she will have a hard time in the future because her bloodline advancement is cut off...

"Don't worry, swear first, and you will get everything."

A second before She Xuan touched the porcelain vase, Lu Bei raised his hand slightly and raised his chin, indicating that She Xuan should show her sincerity first.

"I will... take this vow."

She Xuan said it intermittently several times. After she let it go completely, she felt exhausted. She uttered an emotionless oath, and the bloodstains left on her almost made her faint from the pain.

The good news is that she kept her promise and only took one item to remove a blood curse.

Then it hurt like hell again.

The method of demon cultivation has a special refining process. She Xuan obtained the source of her bloodline and held it tightly in her arms. People do not share the same joys and sorrows. Lu Bei did not understand her excitement, so he waved his hand and asked her to leave first, and agreed to meet in Langyu County with a secret signal.

She Xuan was as if she had been pardoned. She resisted the urge to improve her bloodline and swung her snake tail...

He fell to the ground with a thud.

He lost too much blood and was poisoned by some strange poisons, so he was unable to move for a while.

Lu Bei curled his lips, took out the medicine, and told him to heal on the spot. He raised his hand to wipe the blood on himself, then turned and walked towards the Buddha-faced Golden Body Spider Cave.

"Brother Bo, Brother Luo, I'm back." Lu Bei clenched his fist and coughed twice, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and forced a miserable smile.

"What happened? Why is my brother injured again?"

Zhu Bo asked hurriedly. They only heard Lu Bei fighting with She Xuan in the passage. The fight went further and further away, and they couldn't understand anything after that.

"Brother Bo guessed it right. The demon snake hasn't left yet. I broke her ambush at the door. She used her familiarity with the underground palace to ambush me several times. I only have a vague idea of how to break the formation. Although I am stronger than her, I still can't beat her cunning tricks. I have no choice but to come back and recuperate."

Lu Bei said with an unpleasant expression: "Brother Bo, I have something to say, please don't take it too seriously."

It sounds so familiar, as if I have heard someone say it somewhere before.

"No need, I'm already on top."

"That's good. It's none of my business now that you're already in the spotlight."

Lu Bei smiled awkwardly: "When I was fighting the demon girl, the compass was knocked down by her in the formation, and I don't know where it went now."

I knew it!

Zhu Bo's mouth twitched. He tried to hold it back, but couldn't help it: "Brother Lu, look at your Qiankun bag, maybe it fell in!"

"That's not true. I've seen it before."

"… "

Zhu Bo rolled his eyes, and Luo Ban next to him couldn't help it and his body swayed twice while meditating.

"Brother Bo, don't leave. It won't be that difficult with just a compass."

Lu Bei said quickly, "I have some good news. The treasured fan that your father passed down to you is still there. I held it tightly and spat out dozens of mouthfuls of blood to prevent it from being snatched away by the witch."

"I understand. I'll get some money for medicine when I get back to help my brother recover."

"How can this be so? I can't do that. I can't do that."

Lu Bei waved his hands repeatedly. Seeing that Zhu Bo had no more words to say, he asked, "How much?"

"… "
