Walking out of the bathhouse, Gu Xiaoxing changed into a clean robe. His injuries had almost recovered. The superficial wounds on his body have been completely healed, and the deep ones are all scabbed. Only the broken bones still need some time to heal.
He was able to recover so quickly not only because he took some healing pills and helped during the foundation building stage, but also because of the Spirit Devouring Body. No matter in terms of combat power or foundation, the Spirit Devouring Body cannot compare with orthodox monks, but only in terms of recovering from injuries, the Spirit Devouring Body has a unique advantage.
When the spirit-eating insect becomes parasitic, it becomes one with the host. If the host is in trouble, the spirit insect cannot survive alone. Before Gu Xiaoxing entered the path of cultivation, the soul-devouring insects would have been able to heal the host's wounds on their own, let alone now, but there was a price. In the past, it consumed the power of flesh and blood, but now it can be replaced by cultivation.
In addition, Gu Xiaoxing is already physically strong, and now, except for a little pain, there is no big problem in moving.
Um? Chaiyuan's regulations prohibit the use of bathhouses?
He just wanted to say that Chai Yuan’s surname is now Gu.
Later, Gu Xiaoxing began to inventory the spoils of the trip, including some elixir talismans and several magic weapons. They didn't look like high-end goods, but when he saw five of them, he was still excited. This thing is so powerful that it was almost killed by a thunderbolt.
Then Gu Xiaoxing couldn't help but pout.
"How did you get away with it? There are a few people at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Condensation, but their combined spiritual stones are not much more than mine. Isn't that a shame?"
I thought that the middle-aged physical cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Condensation had a lot of spirit stones, but at first glance, he actually had the fewest. There were not even a hundred spirit stones in the huge storage bag, but Gu Xiaoxing didn't know. Physical training often requires the assistance of spiritual medicine, so physical training is often the most money-hungry among monks.
Counting it down, there are only more than 600 spirit stones in total, plus the original 400, well, it's not a lot.
Finally, Gu Xiaoxing turned his attention to the four items in front of him. These were the four items that he felt could be considered high-quality products after searching for them.
Among them were two magic secret books, one was called "Stone Body Refining". When I picked it up and looked through it, I realized that it was a body refining method. This was the method practiced by the middle-aged man, but when Gu Xiaoxing saw it After seeing the words "Quenching the paste in the fire, smelting the iron stone and spiritual muscle", he threw it away.
Because the ointment here is fat.
"What's the point of blocking my sweet dream!"
I flipped through the second book, and this one was much more interesting. It was also dug out from the storage bag of a middle-aged physical practitioner. It was called "Spirit Binding Rope". After mastering it, you can turn your own spiritual power into an iron rope to bind the enemy. The iron rope Accompanied by the power of runes, it is quite powerful. The middle-aged man once used this method to imprison Du Siyu.
At that time, Gu Xiaoxing only thought that the iron rope was some kind of magic weapon, but never thought that it was actually a magic weapon.
"It's interesting, keep it."
The third thing is a bit strange. It is a hook. It looks like a fishhook, but it is much larger than an ordinary fishhook. It is as long as an arm. I don’t know what kind of material it is made of. It feels heavy in my hand. , even Gu Xiaoxing can't pick it up easily, for fear it weighs several thousand kilograms.
“You don’t even have barbs, can you really catch fish?”
Gu Xiaoxing had doubts in his eyes and tried to activate his cultivation. When the spiritual power was submerged, he only heard a "crack" sound. Countless barbs suddenly protruded from the originally smooth hook body, which made him tremble all over. If it weren't for his My hand was holding the end of the fishhook, and I was afraid that it had already been pierced with several holes.
My eyes widened immediately. There was no barb on this hook. It was clearly hidden. If there is a fish in the mouth, you only need to push it gently, and it will be so sour...
Just thinking about it for a moment made Gu Xiaoxing shudder.
"It's too cruel! It's too damaging! The mouth is full of barbs in one bite. Even if I get freed, I'm afraid the whole mouth will be torn off. What a good thing! But with such a big hook, how big of a fish do you have to catch? !”
Putting away the fishhook, Gu Xiaoxing turned his attention to the fourth thing, and his eyes couldn't help but become fiery.
The last thing was just an ordinary little jade bottle with three elixirs stored in it. The reason why Gu Xiaoxing was so popular was because there were three words marked on the jade bottle...beauty elixir!
"Baby!"
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes lit up. He had long heard that there was a kind of beauty pill in the world of cultivation. He took a pill that could make him handsome and beautiful. This beauty pill was undoubtedly this kind of pill. He unscrewed the mouth of the bottle and put it to the tip of his nose. Sniffed.
"It smells so good!"
I thought about taking one to try the effect, but I felt something was wrong. After joining the sect for more than half a month, Gu Xiaoxing had actually noticed that people here seemed to have misunderstandings about the definition of "beauty". I often heard people Words like saying that Du Siyu is as beautiful as a fairy.
Are you sick?
Gu Xiaoxing couldn't understand it at all. He frowned and put the pill away. He decided not to take it until he found out more about it. What if it was a poison that made people lose weight?
Then, instead of continuing to recover from his injuries, Gu Xiaoxing went directly to the kitchen on the top of the mountain. He had left so much blood and needed to replenish it!
When he walked out of the inner kitchen with a satisfied look on his face, he felt that he was very close to the fourth level of Qi Condensation.
"A little more fire tonight and that should be enough."
Although I have just eaten, I can't help but lick my lips when I think of the deliciousness of the spirit fish. It is really a great blessing in the world to be able to satisfy your appetite!
Returning to Chaiyuan, Gu Xiaoxing continued to heal himself. Some of the healing elixirs were among the trophies he collected. In addition, he continued to absorb the burning incense smoke. Finally, he had the help of the soul-eating insects. Under such a triple offensive, , his injuries were quickly defeated, and he was completely healed in just two hours.
The broken bones were reborn, the scabs on the body surface had fallen off, and the new skin was white and smooth, without any signs of injury.
He took out the secret book of spells called "Spirit Binding Cord" and began to study it. The contents in it were a bit confusing to him. Many parts required deep thought before he could understand it. As he understood more deeply, Gu Xiaoxing began to understand. The more I feel that this method is not simple.
The general idea is to use spiritual power to forge a spiritual cord in the Dantian, and use the soul to carve secret talismans and divine patterns on it, so that it has the power to imprison and strangle. After refining it in the Dantian, it will become more and more powerful. powerful.
Rather than saying this is a spell, it is more like refining a natal magic weapon. However, unlike the natal magic weapon, even if the soul-binding cord is cut off, it will not suffer backlash, but it will take time and effort to refine again.
After studying it for two hours, Gu Xiaoxing finally understood this method thoroughly. It seems simple, but there are many things in it, especially the secret talismans and divine patterns, which are difficult to understand and make people feel dizzy. .
Taking a long breath, Gu Xiaoxing did not practice this method immediately. Instead, he closed the book suddenly and said slowly: "It's almost time..."
Walking out of the room, the night is very deep tonight, the moon is flying high and the wind is high, the time is just right, I put the breath holding charm on my body and quickly disappeared into the dark woods...
When Gu Xiaoxing returned to Chaiyuan again, it was already midnight. When he closed the door tightly, the familiar firelight soon lit up in the room.
boom!
The door suddenly opened.
Gu Xiaoxing was stunned, staring blankly at the slender figure at the door, a fierce look suddenly flashed in his eyes!
Silence?
Du Siyu was obviously stunned for a moment. He was originally curious about why there was fire in this room. When he saw the two spiritual fish on the fire and Lone Xiaoxing who was still looking at him in shock, he couldn't help but reveal a thought. With a meaningful smile, he said calmly: "You are not... thinking about killing people and silencing them, are you?"
The idea in his mind was revealed. Gu Xiaoxing's face turned grim, and he walked directly towards Du Siyu, then crossed a bench and said with a smile: "How can that be possible! Even if you gave me a hundred more courage, I would never dare to have such an idea. Ah! Come...Senior brother, sit down."
"Oh? Really?" Du Siyu was noncommittal and looked at him with a smile.
The sight of Gu Xiaoxing sent chills down his spine, and he forced himself to calm down. He carefully glanced outside and closed the door again. When he turned around, he found Du Siyu still standing there and said, "Senior Brother Du, why don't you sit down?"
Du Siyu looked a little funny at his guilty look, but when he thought of all the rudeness he treated her in the Blackwood Forest, he felt angry and decided to scare him severely, saying: "Don't you dare to sit down! If the fifth elders know about it, The fish he raised were caught and roasted. I'm afraid I won't be regarded as complicit in this. But I heard that someone angered the fifth elder a few days ago, and was later captured by his old man and put in the alchemy furnace to refine Qiqi. For forty-nine hours, there were endless screams. When I heard it, I was hanging with only one breath, and my whole body was as thin as a withered vine. It was so miserable!"
Gu Xiaoxing swallowed her saliva, with a look of horror on her face. She felt that Du Siyu's charming peach blossom eyes were full of danger, which was so scary. When she thought of putting herself in the alchemy furnace for refining, her scalp suddenly went numb.
Or should I keep silent?
But I can't beat him!
no!
This matter must not be known to a third person. Gu Xiaoxing looked at Du Siyu with a fierce look on his face.
