Chapter 736 The Heroine Is Not a Human (Thirty)
"Do you think I would bother with a kitten? Childish!"
A hint of disdain flashed across Gu Qingcheng's golden brown eyes.
“Meow!”
She cried out, and all four paws started flapping.
She was going to get some spiritual herbs and elixirs for her little Pei Yan!
Humph, it's just a warning to the owner, what's the big deal? Feeling the kitten in his arms move a little, Pei Yan hurriedly hugged it tighter.
"Cat, what do you want to do?"
Pei Yan asked softly.
"Haha, maybe your cat got anxious after seeing my cat help me avoid a crisis, and wanted to show off, too."
Lu Ming replied with a smile.
Pei Yan: ...
He was surprised at first, then he looked down at Gu Qingcheng: "Mao'er, there's no need to do this!"
"I am able to protect you and myself!"
Only useless people would rely on a demon pet.
I raise you only because I want to raise you, not because I want to use you for anything! Lu Ming's smile was a little stiff.
Although Pei Yan didn't say the second half of his words, the meaning he wanted to express was very clear -
Pei Yan was disliking Lu Ming's low level of cultivation and poor vigilance. As a human cultivator, he actually needed a cat demon to "protect" him.
Lu Ming: ...I have something to say, MMP, but I don't know whether I should say it or not! Pei Yan, you are such a fool. If you want to coax your little cat demon, just go and coax it yourself. Why do you drag him into the contrast by making indirect accusations?
While Lu Ming was secretly complaining, Pei Yan had already used actual actions to prove it to his cat -
Pei Yan secretly gathered his spiritual power and poured it into the index finger of his left hand.
"Break the word technique!"
As he shouted softly, a strong wave of spiritual energy spread out from his body to the surroundings.
This spiritual power was so overbearing that it actually dispelled the thick blood-colored fog surrounding Pei Yan.
Without the blood mist to cover them, the monsters that tried to launch a sneak attack would have nowhere to hide.
"Kill!"
Pei Yan cast another spell, and the spiritual power at his fingertips instantly turned into a sharp blade, killing all the surrounding monsters, big and small, as easy as cutting tofu!
This process may sound slow, but it actually happens in the blink of an eye.
Lu Ming just realized that Pei Yan was going to take action, and almost at the same time, he ended the fight! Ah, this——
What kind of skill is this? No moves, no life-defining weapons, just using spiritual power as a means? With just one word "break", the blood mist was dispersed.
A single killing technique can, can it, can it defeat a group of monsters? Lu Ming is an immortal of the Nth generation after all, and he has been knowledgeable since he was a child.
However, this was the first time he had seen a cultivator like Pei Yan.
Lu Ming looked at Pei Yan's relaxed and casual state, and he had a deep doubt: Is his cultivation really only at the ninth level of foundation building? Just as Lu Ming looked at Pei Yan with complicated eyes, he had already put away his attack and said to his cat with a smile: "Cat, look! I can do it!"
Therefore, I don’t need your help, and I don’t need you to compare yourself with other monsters.
Gu Qingcheng stretched out her little paws and fluttered her ears: Well, little Pei Yan is really capable.
However, as a ninth-level demon that has lived for more than two thousand years, Gu Qingcheng feels that she still has to take care of baby Pei Yan.
"Ouch!" Wait a minute!
Gu Qingcheng suddenly leaped up and broke free from Pei Yan's arms.
"Cat?"
Pei Yan was shocked, and his usually calm (cold and world-weary) face finally showed a vivid expression.
He subconsciously reached out to hug Gu Qingcheng, but he didn't even touch the tip of its tail.
"Cat! Come back!"
Pei Yan was probably really "overwhelmed with worry", and in his anxiety, he even forgot that he still had spiritual power. He could easily use a stream of spiritual power to "hug" the cat back.
Now, he could only look at the small figure disappearing in the blood mist, shout anxiously, and quickly chase after it.
"Brother Pei?"
Lu Ming was stunned at first, and then felt helpless.
Finally, she was thankful: "Fortunately, my Baibai is the most well-behaved, unlike Brother Pei's."
Tsk tsk, it's just an ordinary breed with low demonic power, but it's actually so capable! It's already very difficult for a native cat to be used as a demon pet by a cultivator, but it still doesn't know how to be satisfied.
"It's just that Brother Pei's personality is too weird. Otherwise, who would indulge a cat demon like this?"
Lu Ming muttered to himself and shook his head repeatedly.
The white cat in his arms seemed to sense something and started to cry "wool wow" in one direction.
Lu Ming: ... No way, Bai Bai, you want to make trouble too? However, out of some intuition, Lu Ming decided to trust his own demon pet for once! He no longer paid attention to the man and the cat who disappeared in the blood mist. He had already thought about it. This treasure hunting trip was more of a "test" for Pei Yan.
If he has a high level of cultivation and is reliable, Lu Ming will be willing to continue his "alliance" with him.
Can--
Pei Yan just now looked like he was blinded by lust, and the creature that had him completely bewitched was actually a cat!
Lu Ming increasingly felt that there might be something wrong with his initial choice.
"Forget it! It's more important to find the elixir!"
Lu Ming completely threw Pei Yan and his two "master pets" aside. He held the little white cat in his arms and went towards the place where the cat was howling.
“Ouch!”
Puff! A flying-winged red wolf was chopped to the ground by Lu Ming's flying sword.
"Ahhh!" Above! The master and servant had fought side by side so many times that they had developed a tacit understanding.
Lu Ming can already "understand" some of his cat's calls.
He raised his hand and swung the sword towards his head.
Phew!
The sword tip pierced into the body of a green bat demon that swooped down from a dead tree, and black blood splattered onto Lu Ming's clothes.
Lu Ming didn't bother to use the cleaning talisman. It was a war, why did he need to be so particular?
He continued to move in the direction indicated by the white cat.
The surroundings were still shrouded in thick blood-red fog, making it almost impossible to see what was happening around them.
With such low visibility, people in the area naturally cannot see the sun, and therefore cannot estimate the time! Lu Ming's trouble is not only that he "does not know the years", his spiritual power is also somewhat exhausted.
Along the way, he was rushing and fighting at the same time. Although he had the help of the little white cat, it could only give him reminders and could not share the firepower like a real demon pet.
Lu Ming is the only one responsible for the firepower of both the master and servant.
Therefore, his spiritual power was greatly consumed!
...None of this matters.
Before entering the Blood Mist Demon Forest, Lu Ming had made adequate preparations.
He raised his hand, took out a small jade bottle from the storage bag, and poured out two Peiyuan Pills.
Lu Ming took one pill himself and gave the other to the little white cat.
Well, although he felt a little sad, this was the top-grade Peiyuan Pill that he had bought from the Dandao Sect at a huge price.
One costs one hundred low-grade spirit stones.
It's fine if you eat such an expensive pill yourself, but if you feed it to a cat, then, then -
"Bai Baiguai, thanks to you for warning me today, thank you!"
Although Lu Ming is a straight man for a thousand years, he is clear-headed and understands that although Xiaobai is a little cat demon who has just awakened his intelligence, he has excellent "innate skills".
Maybe he doesn't have very strong combat power at the moment, but the fact that he is "sharp enough" is of great help to Lu Ming!
“Ah~”
Yoyo swallowed the Peiyuan Pill in one gulp.
Such pills are the size of longan, but they melt in the mouth, so there is no possibility of choking on them.
Yoyo felt a spiritual force spreading from his throat, nourishing his meridians and organs! Comfortable!
So comfortable!
The key point is that after taking this kind of pill, Youyou clearly felt that her "power" was awakening.
"Of course. In the world of immortal cultivation, elixirs are extremely useful."
"Some wealthy monks can increase their cultivation level by taking drugs alone."
"Oh, your master is really good. He actually gave such a good nourishing pill to a demon beast!"
Deep in Yoyo's sea of consciousness, a voice spoke with emotion.
Yoyo raised her chin proudly: "Of course! This is the master I chose."
"We cats have very sharp intuition. Among so many cultivators, I think Lu Ming is the most pleasing to the eye."
The Immortal Cultivation System strangely fell into a brief silence.
“You” cats?
Are you sure? Never mind, Yoyo is not completely wrong.
A big cat is also a cat.
“Meow!”
After eating the Peiyuan Pill, the white cat was very excited to feel the spiritual power surging in his body and his growing strength.
It meowed at Lu Ming, as if expressing gratitude or praise!
Lu Ming: ...
Looking at the kitten with clean fur and clear eyes, Lu Ming's heart, which is always a straight man, was actually melted by its cuteness.
He unexpectedly took out another Peiyuan Pill and stuffed it into the white cat's mouth.
The white cat's golden brown pupils are full of surprises - there is more? Wow! This cat owner has a future!
Since you are so considerate, Yoyo decided to help him.
After eating the Peiyuan Pill, it did not absorb all the spiritual power immediately, but followed the instinct from the body and mobilized the spiritual power to the Dantian.
Then, it seemed to feel a strange energy fluctuation.
I don't know what it is, but it makes me feel good!
Well, something that can make a cat feel comfortable must be a good thing! However, before Yoyo could continue to use his "magic power", he became a little weak due to the overdraft of spiritual power.
"It's still too young! Its cultivation is too low!"
Yoyo thought dejectedly.
It even feels like making you sleepy.
However, the important things have not been done yet, so I can’t get dizzy yet.
“Ah~Ah~”
The white cat tried to stay awake and howled in one direction.
In order to attract the attention of its owner, the white cat even raised its little paws this time.
It points firmly in one direction.
"Baibai, are you saying that you want me to go to that place?"
“Oh~” Yes!
The white cat nodded firmly, "That's it!"
Lu Ming still didn't know what his pet was saying, but he understood what it meant! So, what did the cat find out and wanted me to go over there? Is there a demon beast or a thousand-year-old jacaranda over there? Lu Ming knew that he was just imagining things: "Bai Bai is just a cat, not the treasure-hunting rat in the legend!"
Lu Ming himself thought his guess was ridiculous, and what was even more ridiculous was that he actually believed it.
Yes! Baibai is definitely not a treasure-hunting mouse. It may not even know what the Perennial Jacaranda is.
But, what if? Anyway, in this blood mist demon forest, Lu Ming completely lost his sense of direction and didn't know where to go.
Since they have pointed out the location to me, why not go and take a look!
…
Lu Ming held the little white cat in his arms and followed the direction it pointed, heading towards the depths of the Blood Mist Demon Forest.
It was unknown how long they walked, during which time Lu Ming killed many low-level monsters.
The cultivation base of most of these monsters is below level three or four, and they have not yet cultivated their monster cores.
Moreover, they live in the blood mist demon forest, and their bodies have long been contaminated by the "poison" of the blood mist.
Without demon pills, they are poisonous, and their meat is not delicious... It can be said that the demon beasts here are really worthless! After Lu Ming killed them, he was too lazy to "pick up the corpses".
He walked and killed people along the way, and when he replenished his spiritual power, he took out two Peiyuan Pills, one for himself and one for the cat.
Yoyo: ...What a good poop scooper!
Don’t worry, I, your cat master, will reward you!
Finally, after Lu Ming replenished the Peiyuan Pill three times, they arrived at the place indicated by the white cat.
"This is--"
Lu Ming looked in disbelief at the flower with green roots swaying slightly on the cliff in front of him.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The ten thousand year old jasper flower! The "treasure of the forest" of the Blood Mist Demon Forest! It has been said for hundreds of years, but no one has ever been able to obtain it.
There is no way, the Blood Mist Demon Forest is too domineering. Once a cultivator below the Golden Core Stage enters, it will be full of dangers.
At the very least you will get injured, at worst you will lose your life.
Cultivators above the Jindan stage can deal with it easily.
But the problem is that there are no valuable materials for cultivation in the Blood Mist Demon Forest.
The only thousand-year-old jasper flower could only be used to refine elixirs.
The cultivators in the Jindan stage no longer need to make pills! Therefore, the Blood Mist Demon Forest has existed for thousands of years, and the legend of the ten thousand year old Jade Root Flower has been passed down for hundreds of years, but it is still just a "legend".
Many monks who came to search for treasures couldn't even see the shadow of the ten thousand year old jasper flower! Now, under Bai Bai's guidance, Lu Ming stood in front of the ten thousand year old jasper flower.
"Baibai! You are so awesome!"
"...Haha, you are my treasure hunting mouse. Oh no, it's my treasure hunting cat!"
Lu Ming was very excited. Although he was determined to get the Thousand-Year-Old Jade Root Flower, he did not dare to say arrogantly that he would be successful this time.
I never expected that his Baibai would be so awesome.
The pills he fed her were not wasted!
“Meow!”
Yoyo was a little angry.
What is a treasure hunting mouse? Ugh, it’s a treasure hunting cat.
No, no! Treasure Cat is also ugly.
She is a great cat, how can she be treated like a demon pet? A system: ...What do you think? Yoyo, you are now a demon beast! Being treated as a demon pet! At most, he is your master, and he has not signed a demon pet contract with you. You are still a relatively free cat!
But, Lu Ming already knows your "value", to be on the safe side, maybe he will -
Hmm, should I remind Yoyo not to sign a contract with human monks easily?
This is not just a matter of not being able to betray, but once a demon pet contract is signed, the fate of the demon pet is closely tied to its master.
If she met a top-notch master and was signed with the most demanding contract, Yoyo would most likely "live and die together" with her master! Although this Lu Ming, who was endowed with the golden light of merit, was a man of great fortune, he would not die easily.
But, there could be a chance of something happening.
People, oh no, even monsters, cannot put their fate in the hands of others.
A certain system was thinking secretly, and it decided that as long as there was anything wrong with Lu Ming, it would remind him immediately!
"Baibai, go stay in the spirit beast bag first."
Just as a certain system was thinking secretly, Lu Ming had already woken up from his surprise.
He raised his hand and was about to put the white little cat demon into the spirit beast bag.
"Meow!" Why are you stuffing me back?
"Be good! It could be dangerous!"
Lu Ming patiently explained to the little white cat, "There must be a guardian beast near the spiritual grass!"
The thousand-year-old jasmine flower is full of spiritual power. It is needed not only by human cultivators, but also by monsters.
This jacaranda has existed for so many years but has not been "ruined". In addition to its secret location, it may also be related to the fact that it is guarded by a monster.
Although Lu Ming didn't know what kind of guardian beast the Ten Thousand Years Jade Root Flower would have, it was definitely not one of those low-level third or fourth level monsters that he had just killed.
Level seven monster!
Even a ninth-level demon! It's possible!
Lu Ming's own cultivation was only at the peak of the foundation building stage. When he encountered a seventh-level monster comparable to a human cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, the only thing he could do was "death".
Once such a situation occurs, Lu Ming will be too busy to take care of Little White Cat. Little White Cat is his treasure-hunting cat, and he cannot let it become cannon fodder because of his negligence! Yoyo: ...Hey! This shit scooper is really nice.
Yoyo is not a real monster, but a human with the thinking of a higher creature.
It knows what is important and what is not, and can distinguish between good and bad.
"Meow!" Thank you, cat owner!
Lu Ming couldn't help but rubbed the little white fur ball, then put it into his spirit beast bag.
After putting the cat demon away, Lu Ming did not rush to take action.
He began to take things out of his storage bag—
Talisman!
Formation disk! Pills!
He even took out the life-saving earth-level talisman that his father and master had left him! With such a talisman, even if he really encountered a ninth-level monster, he would have a chance to escape!
Holding the talisman tightly, Lu Ming practiced his skills and rose from the ground, heading towards the cliff.
Getting closer!
Closer! As Lu Ming rose higher, he was almost on par with the thousand-year-old jasper flower.
With just a slight stretch of his hand, he could touch the green rhizome.
But just as Lu Ming stretched out his hand and was about to touch the thousand-year-old jasper flower, something strange happened.
Puff! A "water arrow" filled with a fishy smell shot towards Lu Ming's hand.
"Awoo!" Danger! Even though the white cat was trapped in the spirit beast bag, it was still able to use its spiritual sense to detect the situation outside.
It sensed the danger and immediately gave the alarm.
Lu Ming was already on guard, and when he heard the cry of his own demon pet, he dodged quickly.
Almost brushing his fingertips, the "water arrow" pierced into the cliff beside him.
Swish!
The hard rock seemed to be corroded by strong acid, making a harsh sound.
Along with it, there are also broken rocks.
"Such a domineering venom!"
Lu Ming was suspended in the air. When he saw this scene, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
The stone has been corroded to this extent, and he is just a cultivator, but his body is still flesh and blood, and he cannot withstand such damage.
The key is that this kind of attack must be accompanied by a strong poison.
Although Lu Ming prepared many kinds of medicinal herbs, he could not guarantee that he would be safe.
Restraining his panic, Lu Ming pulled out a few thunder and fire talismans. He threw all the talismans in the direction where the "water arrow" was coming from.
Boom! Boom! There were bursts of noises, and in the midst of the blue-purple lightning and fire, a python as thick as an arm flew out.
Really flying!
This snake demon has actually evolved two wings.
"Flying Winged Black Dragon? A ninth level monster!"
Lu Ming came from a prominent family and studied under a famous teacher, so naturally he had great knowledge.
He recognized the monster at first sight! It turned out to be a ninth level monster.
Despair arose in his heart.
However, the Winged Black Dragon had already been angered by him, and he couldn't retreat just because he wanted to!
Damn it! So what if he is a level nine demon?
My father is a powerful being who is half a step away from becoming a god, and my master is the Yaoguang Patriarch who has reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage... Well, well, if we simply compete in cultivation, neither my father nor my master is a match for a true ninth-level demon.
But, Lu Ming now has no other choice but to fight hard.
Escape? Where to escape? How to escape? The black dragon not only has a high level of cultivation, but also has wings!
People can fly!
Gritting his teeth and suppressing his instinctive fear, Lu Ming still took out a handful of talismans.
He smashed towards the black snake demon again.
Boom! Thunder Talisman! Boom! Fiery Talisman! Crash! Hurricane Talisman! ...There are many talismans, but they are not of high level.
At least for a ninth-level demon, these talismans are just like tickling.
Of course, these talismans of Lu Ming are not completely useless.
At least, they succeeded in making the Winged Black Dragon even more angry.
“Hiss, hiss.”
The black snake demon had a long tongue and its pair of vertical pupils revealed a sinister and cruel light.
"Human, you are looking for death!"
Lu Ming: ...It’s quite desperate!
Gritting his teeth, Lu Ming took out the two earth-level talismans and faced the bloody mouth of the flying-winged black dragon.
Whoosh! The talisman flew out.
Boom! Two bolts of lightning and fire power containing the might of heaven landed accurately on the flying-winged black dragon.
Snap!
One of the flying-winged black dragon's wings was hit, and it let out a painful wail.
A magnanimous ninth-level demon was actually injured by a human cultivator in the foundation-building stage. One can imagine the anger of the Winged Black Dragon.
Ignoring the severe pain in its body, it swung its tail vigorously and whipped Lu Ming.
Lu Ming dodged in a panic.
The tail did not hit Lu Ming, but hit the cliff.
Bang! The huge rocks on the cliff were shattered, and the debris flew everywhere.
Lu Ming continued to throw out talismans, formation plates and other magical tools to fight with the black dragon.
The black dragon was completely enraged and wanted to kill Lu Ming regardless of the consequences.
The man and the dragon fought fiercely.
Yoyo was hiding in the spirit beast's bag, and it was so scary to watch.
However, she did not forget the goal of her own shit shoveling officer——
Ten thousand years of jacaranda! Seeing the right moment, the white kitten rushed out of the spirit beast bag.
A white shadow flashed by quickly, and then the thousand-year-old jasmine flower swaying on the cliff disappeared!
"Roar!" Thief! Damn human cultivator! He actually stole the spiritual herbs that I was protecting? The flying-winged black dragon exploded directly, ready to die together with Lu Ming.
Lu Ming: ...
He really didn't know whether to praise Bai Bai or -
wrong!
The most important thing now is to escape!
"Bai Bai! Run away!"
Lu Ming took out the life-saving talisman his mother had given him, reached out to grab the white shadow, and the man and the pet started to run for their lives.
Not far away, a cold voice came, "Brother Lu, do you need help?"
