For a moment, Chen An thought he had seen it wrong.

The aptitude of the wood spiritual root actually increased? It directly changed from an invisible spiritual root to a visible spiritual root? What was going on? Chen An was puzzled.

Isn’t my little wife a flower demon now?

Where did her spiritual roots come from?

How could it be that after the lovemaking ended, I would be given feedback to improve my wood spiritual root aptitude? Chen An was puzzled.

But soon, he roughly figured this out.

Perhaps in the system's identification and judgment, there is no difference between demon cores and spiritual roots, both of which are used to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for cultivation.

After figuring it all out, Chen An couldn't help but smile with relief.

This awakened the wood spiritual roots.

It is true that after searching for a long time, you can finally find it without any effort.

Seeing Chen An suddenly smiling, Song Huaying couldn't help but wonder, "Husband, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, it's just that you are so beautiful, Ying'er. You are so beautiful that your husband can't help but smile when he sees you."

Chen An said something sweet.

After saying that, he continued to be intimate with his young wife, not wasting a single minute.

Time flies.

I closed my eyes and opened them again, and it was the next morning in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Song Huaying was so tired that she fell asleep in Chen An's arms.

Sleeping very deeply.

Even pushing with your hands may not wake him up.

Seeing this, Chen An reached out and touched his wife's delicate face, and couldn't help but bent down and gave her a kiss.

Then he used his spiritual power to gently move her away from him, and put her aside so that she could sleep well by herself.

After that, he suddenly thought about it and checked the prompt messages that had popped up from last night until now.

[Alchemy experience +4, Wood Spiritual Root +4] ​​x50 [Wood Spiritual Root: Medium Grade·20%]

Chen An looked at the word "medium quality" in the prompt message and couldn't help feeling excited.

In just one night, the aptitude of this wood spiritual root was upgraded to medium grade.

It’s really efficient.

Well, now that I have the wood spiritual root, it's time to learn the wood escape technique.

So the question is, where can I get the Wood Release Technique to learn? Chen An thought about it and decided that he could only buy it from a store outside.

I just don't know if the business is still open now that there are monsters everywhere outside.

Thinking of this, Chen An got dressed, got out of bed and left the room.

He told Gu Xinyue whom he saw in the hall that he was going out for a while to see if the store was open and to buy some things.

Gu Xinyue looked worried. It was so dangerous outside and she didn't want Chen An to go out.

However, Chen An didn't care about it. He just asked her to stay at home and contact him via note if she had any problems.

Just after he finished giving the instructions, he suddenly thought of Shen Qingyi.

Shen Qingyi used to be a core disciple of the Xuanhuang Sect, and it is not known whether she has the magic of Wood Escape Technique.

Thinking of this, Chen An went to ask Shen Qingyi.

The result was disappointing. Shen Qingyi did not have any wood escape technique.

There's nothing we can do about it.

I can only buy it outside.

Soon, Chen An left the tunnel and flew towards Wenliu Street on his sword.

At this time, it was still dawn.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s too early, but I didn’t encounter a single bird monster after flying in the sky for such a long time.

How strange.

So the journey was smooth and they arrived at Wenliu Street in a short while.

At this time, there were many more dilapidated houses visible on Wenliu Street, and it was no longer as lively as before.

There were only a few people on the street.

Many shops are closed.

Only a few large stores are still open.

And these big stores, without exception, all have Jindan powerhouses in charge at this moment, and there are protective formations set up around them.

It seems that the invasion of monsters during this period has had a great impact on the entire redwood forest.

It’s just a matter of impact size.

Chen An saw that the familiar Qin's Trading Company was still open for business, and he quickly flew down on his sword.

As soon as I walked into the store, a male shopkeeper at the counter came up to me and said enthusiastically, "My friend, are you here to buy or sell something?"

The professional smile was not very skillful.

The speech skills are also very ordinary.

It was obvious that he had just become the shopkeeper not long ago.

So where did the young and beautiful Qin the shopkeeper go? Why did she change?

Thinking about it, Chen An asked doubtfully: "Excuse me, where is the shopkeeper Qin from before? Is she not in the store?"

Speaking of Shopkeeper Qin, the male shopkeeper couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "You must be talking about my sister. My sister had a miserable life. She unfortunately died in a wave of monster invasion two months ago. She has now been buried."

“I see…”

Chen An nodded, feeling a little sad.

This world is so despairing. People are gone suddenly. Life is so worthless.

"By the way, do you want to buy something or sell something?"

The male shopkeeper asked again with enthusiasm.

Chen An didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "I want to buy the Wood Escape Technique. Do you sell it here?"

"What are you talking about, Daoist friend? I'm running a business, and I only have a simple Wood Release Technique, which I must have."

Soon, the male shopkeeper took out a book of magic secrets.

The three words "Wood Release Technique" are written on the cover of the book.

Well, after checking each other's eyes, this is the spell I want to buy...

Thinking about it, Chen An asked, "I wonder how much this Wood Release Technique costs?"

The male shopkeeper raised three fingers and said, "Three high-quality spirit stones."

“So expensive?”

Chen An opened his eyes and for a moment thought he had misheard.

The male shopkeeper explained, "Fellow Daoist, there are monsters everywhere outside right now. The cost of running a shop has increased dramatically, so the prices of goods have to increase accordingly."

"Besides, my price is already the most affordable."

"If you buy it in other shops, it will be more expensive than mine."

The male shopkeeper had a sincere look on his face, but it was unclear whether what he said was true.

About a quarter of an hour later.

Chen An had visited four shops in a row and found that the male shopkeeper of Qin's Shop was not lying. The wood escape technique he sold was indeed the most affordable.

So he went back, but did not rush into the store. Instead, he deliberately wandered around outside for a while.

Not long after, the male shopkeeper saw him and came out and asked with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist, do you still want that Wood Release Technique?"

"I can give it to you at a lower price."

"I will only take 2 high-quality spirit stones from you, plus 90 medium-quality spirit stones."

Well, it’s 10 middle-grade spirit stones cheaper…

Chen An no longer hesitated and immediately went into the store to buy the Wood Release Technique.

It's not a matter of handing over money and receiving goods.

In order to buy this book of Wood Escape Technique, Chen An took out a lot of small pills to barter.

He is very poor now.

He doesn't even have a few mid-grade spirit stones on him.

Not to mention the top-grade spirit stones.

The reason for this result was that he now used all the spirit stones he had to refine and practice, and he was unable to save any spirit stones at all.

"By the way, shopkeeper, I heard that many families and gangs have flocked to Baicao Lane. What is the specific situation in Baicao Lane now?"

Chen An asked the male shopkeeper.

The male shopkeeper knew that the most important thing in opening a business was to establish good relationships with customers.

Therefore, he did not hide anything and told everything he knew.

Soon, Chen An had a general understanding of the current situation in Baicao Lane.

In addition to the Red Fire Gang, there are now nine major Jindan forces stationed there.

There are four major Jindan families, the Qin family, the Xiao family, the Ye family, and the Lu family.

There are five major Jindan gangs, the Black Wind Gang, the Iron Stone Gang, the Xu Kun Gang, the Giant Hammer Gang, and the Cang Hai Gang.

Among them, the strongest is the Xukun Gang.

It is said that the gang leader who is in charge of leading the team has reached the sixth level of Golden Core, which is very close to the late stage of Golden Core.

"Late Jindan stage?"

"This is indeed a tricky thing. I probably won't be able to defeat it if I run into it."

"But I have the Shadow Killing Technique and Wood Release Technique. Even if we really meet and a conflict occurs, I should be able to escape unscathed."

After thinking about this for a while, Chen An felt that he and his family could stay in Baicao Lane for a while longer.

After I break through to the Jindan stage in a while, I will move out of Baicao Lane with my family and see whether it is better to start my own business or join the Tiandi Sect.

With the third-level alchemy and the cultivation of the golden elixir, I believe that even a large sect like the Tiandi Sect would not easily miss it.

Moreover, this day will not come too late.

Because the level of father-daughter relationship between the two daughters will be upgraded soon.

The eldest daughter Chen Yuejian is about to be promoted to 4 stars.

The second daughter, Chen Yike, is about to be promoted to 2 stars.

There will be two more waves of rewards then, and if nothing unexpected happens, they should still be rewards for cultivation.

My current cultivation level is at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment. After receiving two waves of system rewards, I will probably be able to break through directly to the Golden Core stage.

Even if it can't, it won't be far off.

After thinking about this, Chen An once again asked the male shopkeeper about the situation in the redwood forest in recent times and what the situation was with those monsters that fell from the sky.

Soon, he understood more.

Right now in the entire redwood forest, the place where the demonic disaster is most severe is Baicao Lane.

The number of monsters there is almost ten times that of other places.

Moreover, the demon beast with the highest cultivation level at the late Jindan stage is in Baicao Lane.

It is a giant python monster.

Over a hundred meters long.

The body is nearly three meters wide.

There are two horns on the head.

It seems that it is about to shed its skin and transform into a dragon.

Now, many families and gangs have set their sights on this snake demon and want to unite to hunt it down.

"Shopkeeper, where exactly is this snake demon in Baicao Lane now?"

“It seems to be in the northernmost position.”

"That's good."

Chen An smiled. He lived in the South Lane, which was quite a distance away from the snake demon and was relatively safe.

Then he walked around the store and bought some gifts for his wife and daughter.

The things I buy for my wives and concubines are all accessories, all cheap stuff, it’s the thought that counts.

After all, we are very poor now.

The snacks bought for the two daughters were also not very expensive. One medium-grade spirit stone could buy a lot of them.

It is no exaggeration to say that it was so much that the two daughters vomited.

I have acquired the Wood Release Technique and bought gifts for my wife and daughter. It is time to go home.

Chen An said goodbye to the male shopkeeper, turned around and walked out the door.

But before he reached the door, he suddenly frowned and stopped.

His powerful spiritual sense sensed at this moment that there was a group of high-energy bodies outside that were approaching Qin's Trading Company.

This high-energy body is very familiar! It is the purple-dressed woman from before, a fox demon who is suspected to be a nine-tailed fox! "It's over, the door is going to be blocked!"

Chen An's heart sank to the bottom.

But soon he calmed down, turned around and walked towards the window behind him, intending to jump out of the window and escape to avoid the woman in purple dress.

At the same time, he thought about it and took out a bottle of love-breaking pills from his storage bag, quickly uncorked the bottle, and poured the whole bottle into his mouth without thinking.

However, when he came to the window and was about to jump out and run away.

A fragrant breeze suddenly blew.

It turned into a pink heart-shaped mist and floated in from the window.

The target was directly aimed at his handsome face.

At the same time, a charming and seductive voice sounded outside the window:

"Sir, where are you going?"

…

PS: Putting out the bowl, asking for monthly votes and recommendation votes!
