A Mortal's Story of Cultivation into Immortality

One day two months later, in a temporary cave outside the city, Han Li, the ancestor of the Long family, and Saint Qianqiu gathered together again.

They looked at the last man with disheveled hair in front of them who managed to arrive before the agreed time limit, with different expressions.

This Lin family fusion monk now has gray hair and withered skin. He should have looked like a middle-aged man in the prime of life, but now he has become completely old, as if he is an old man in his seventies or eighties.

What's even more fatal is that one of the man's eyes is missing.

Judging from the hollow appearance of his eye sockets, it seemed as if the entire eyeball had been forcibly gouged out.

Compared with before, the aura of this Lin family fused monk was less than one-third of what it was in its heyday, and it still gave people a vague and strange feeling of decline.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, why have you become like this!" After everyone was surprised, the ancestor of the Lin family finally spoke seriously.

"I'm ashamed to say that I encountered a group of soul-stealing beasts in the wasteland, and one of them accidentally sucked most of his energy. Fortunately, he blew himself up several treasures he carried with him and barely escaped." The Lin family man coughed a few times. , said with a bitter look on his face, his voice became hoarse and extremely unpleasant.

"The soul-catching beast? The level of this beast is not very high, how could it force Brother Lin to look like this!" Saint Qianqiu asked in surprise.

"If it were an ordinary soul-destroying beast, how could Lin be afraid of it? But if it were a mutated, combined-level soul-destroying beast, that's another matter." The Lin family man's eyes twitched twice before he slowly replied. .

"Mutated soul-destroying beast!" After hearing this, everyone's expressions changed slightly.

"Yes, this beast hid in the herd at first, and its disguise was no different from that of ordinary soul-destroying beasts. That's why I was unprepared and was attacked by it. Otherwise, no matter how bad Lin was, he would not have ended up like this. "Yes." The man from the Lin family looked back on the situation that day, and his expression became even more ugly.

"It's really unfortunate that Fellow Daoist Lin encountered this calamity. But what are your plans next?" The Long family ancestor's face changed from gloomy to bright for a while, and then he asked with a calm expression.

"I have lost too much energy now, and my mana is less than 23/10 of the original. It is not realistic to enter the Fantasy Desert again. I must immediately return to the spiritual world to retreat for hundreds of years before I can cultivate my cultivation back. So I am here. I don’t plan to plot those two spiritual beings of heaven and earth. I will rest here for a while, then cast a spell to activate my potential, and return to the spirit world along the same path." The man with the blond hair looked uncertain for a while, and then said unwillingly.

"That's fine. With Fellow Daoist Lin's current condition, there is indeed a possibility of death if he continues to take risks. Let's do this. I'll wait for a few people to stay here for one more month to let Fellow Daoist recover a little more and then carry out the following plan." The ancestor of the Long family He didn't show any surprise, but seemed to have expected it.

"That's all we can do. Our Spirit Clan has no objection to this. Fellow Daoist Lin, just rest in peace and recuperate here." Saint Qianqiu was silent for a while, and then nodded.

On the other hand, the Taoist priest named Hui and the girl in Yuyi couldn't help but look at each other, faintly revealing a sense of sadness that the rabbit had died and the fox had died.

After all, among the human monks present, one of them was already injured, and the other was far inferior to Han Li and the ancestors of the Long family. Maybe one of the two would be the one forced to withdraw next time.

However, the two of them are also fusion beings who have practiced for many years. This kind of thought only passed by for a moment, and their expressions returned to normal.

After Han Li heard this, his expression moved slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he suddenly said to the man with loose hair:

"I have a pill in my hand, which may be of some benefit to Fellow Taoist at this time. Fellow Daoist Lin may wish to take it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he shook his sleeve at the man with loose hair, and suddenly a white jade bottle several inches high flew out from him.

The fused monk from the Lin family was startled when he heard this. He subconsciously raised his hand to take the vial and looked at Han Li with doubts in his eyes.

No wonder!

Although Han Li had been traveling with them for a while, they didn't have much contact, let alone any close friendship. Now he was suddenly given a bottle of elixir, which naturally made the man with shaggy hair full of surprise.

The Lin family monk pondered for a moment, then opened the cap of the small bottle in his hand, and the strong medicinal fragrance filled the whole room.

Everyone couldn't help but get excited when they heard it!

The man with the disheveled hair hurriedly brought the bottle to his nose, sniffed it a few times, and immediately showed a hint of joy, then flipped the bottle over and poured it into his palm.

As a result, a pill with emerald green spiritual patterns on its surface rolled out and stopped firmly in the palm of the hand.

"Quenching the Essence Pill, this is the Essence Quenching Pill!" When the man with the blond hair saw the appearance of the elixir, he no longer had any hesitation in his heart. He immediately shouted out with a look of ecstasy on his face.

This elixir is not only extremely rare, but most importantly, it is very useful for his current situation. It can make up for the small amount of energy he has lost, so that he no longer has to worry about his cultivation level being greatly reduced after the injury is healed. of danger.

The ancestors of the Long family, Saint Qianqiu and others couldn't help but feel a little moved when they saw this essence quenching pill.

This kind of elixir is also hard to come by for old monsters like them in the late stage of integration! If it weren't for the current situation, both of them might have other thoughts.

"Fellow Daoist Han, this elixir is indeed of great use to Lin. But no reward will be given for no merit. Let's just tell you what brother Han's intention is in doing this." Although the man with the blond hair was extremely excited, but soon Then he calmed down and moved his lips to send a message to Han Li.

Han Li raised the corner of his mouth slightly, chuckled, and then said the same thing:

"Since Fellow Daoist Lin has said this, Han will just say it directly. I really have something that I want to ask Brother Lin for. I wonder if you can do me a small favor?"

"Brother Han has taken out the Yuan-Quenching Pill, will you still allow me to refuse? Go ahead and ask, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse." After thinking about it for a moment, the man with blond hair thought about it and replied with a heartbeat. road.

"Brother Lin doesn't need to be so gnashing his teeth. What I asked my fellow Taoist to do was just a small favor that took advantage of the situation. I recently rescued a little girl from our human race in the city. This little girl has some connection with me. I hope When you return to the spirit world, can you help me take her with me, and take care of her for a while before I return to the spirit world to pick up someone. After all, the journey down there is too dangerous, and I can't take that little girl with me. We have been together all the way. Fellow Taoist should be able to do this easily." Han Li said calmly through the message.

"It's just that simple. If that's the case, there will be no problem. Lin can assure you that as long as I can return to the spirit world safely, the people that Brother Han entrusted to me will also be safe and sound." The man with the hair was a little surprised, but he did not hesitate. Agree immediately.

"Okay, then Han can rest assured." Han Li nodded lightly and said nothing more immediately.

The scruples in the man's mind went away, and after a slight hesitation, he immediately threw the elixir in his hand into his mouth and swallowed it.

Based on his current situation, the sooner he takes this quenching pill, the less likely it is that his cultivation level will drop drastically, so naturally he doesn't want to delay for a moment.

The ancestors of the Long family and others on the side had long seen what the two people were discussing through the sound transmission, but everyone was wise enough not to disturb anything.

They knew very well that Han Li would not give out such a precious elixir for nothing, and he must have wanted something from the Lin family monks.

But this matter is between the two of them, and it is naturally difficult for others to inquire about it.

The matter of the man with the shaggy hair has been settled, so naturally the next step is to discuss the matter of the eight-legged demon lizard.

The ancestor of the Long family looked calm and gave an overview of his contact with the Zhao family during this period.

Saint Qianqiu, the girl in feathers and others couldn't help but frown after hearing this.

"So, the Zhao family is really a lion. They dare to quote such an outrageous price for an eight-legged demon lizard. Ten-thousand-year-old purple blood mushroom and ice crystal heart are such hard-to-find materials, and they dare to Bring it up to Brother Long? I don't think the Zhao family has any sincerity in exchange, right?" Qianqiu Saint's face suddenly became as cold as ice.

"I don't think the Zhao family has any intention of trading!" Han Li interjected lightly.

"Oh, what does Brother Han mean?" The girl in feathers' clothes changed her expression.

Han Li smiled and said nothing.

"I'm afraid that the Zhao family has not only never thought of giving me the eight-legged devil lizard, but also wants to take advantage of this little bit of net worth. After all, my previous offer was enough to tempt the two old devils of the Zhao family." This time, The ancestor of the Long family took the initiative to respond, but with a sneer on his face.

"It seems that Brother Long has already made up his mind." Saint Qianqiu chuckled after hearing this.

"That's right. Since the Zhao family is unwilling to exchange the eight-legged demon lizard, the other three families probably won't do the deal, so I simply resorted to a trick. While the two demon lords of the Zhao family were plotting against me, I lured them away, and the others sneaked into the Zhao family, and they The eight-legged demon lizard simply stole it out and then entered the Fantasy Desert overnight." The ancestor of the Long family said with a hint of evil on his face.

"Wonderful. If the Zhao family doesn't have a demon king sitting in charge, no one else can stop us. But has Brother Long found the place where the Zhao family raises the eight-legged demon lizards?" The girl in feathers said happily.

"Hehe, Long is not busy in the city these days. Naturally, he has confirmed it. The Zhao family has placed the eight-legged demon lizard in two places. One of them is the Zhao family's forbidden area, which has many restrictions on the magic circle. Even if there is no demon king sitting in charge, it is not easy to start. The other place is the place where the demon lizards are temporarily placed. I inquired about the Zhao family and found that several demon lizards will return from outside in two months. According to the usual practice, they will be there. The temporary stay lasts for several days. And this is a good opportunity for us to take action. Brother Han already has two demon lizards. We only need to capture these demon lizards, which should be enough. But there is one thing, fellow Taoists, please pay attention. You can do it , but try not to go on a killing spree, or expose your own cultivation and true identity. Otherwise, if we attract the attention of other powerful demons in the nearby area, we will be in trouble. After all, we need to traverse the entire fantasy world. Howling Desert, but those powerful demons can use the teleportation array in other places to intercept us directly at the other end of the Howling Desert." The ancestor of the Long family said with great scheming.
