Chapter 503 Secret Conversation
Cang Lie remembered clearly that the demon statue in his impression was just a clay sculpture.
Now the eyes behind the demon statue's mask were bright and he could even hear a faint heartbeat.
Elder Youman replaced yesterday's offerings, and the usually serious old man was in high spirits.
"The demon statue I taught contains a breath of the Demon Lord, and can intuitively track the Demon Lord's current state."
"In the past year, the Demon Lord has recovered his sealed head, heart, and armor, and his power is growing stronger day by day."
Elder Youman proudly said, "The Demon God is recovering, and it's only a matter of time before our demon race returns to its peak!"
Cang Lie was also overwhelmed with emotion after hearing this. The Demon God Jing Zhui was the idol of all the demons, the only true god, with an unparalleled status. This was also the truth that Cang Lie would always follow.
He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but after he worshipped the demon god, he really felt that the power around him had become stronger, and it seemed that he had suddenly realized the long-term bottleneck.
Cang Lie's expression became even more respectful.
Elder Youman called Canglie today to talk to him about the Six Realms Competition. He plans to recommend Canglie to the sect to participate in the competition, and will throw him into the Demon Cave for training in the future.
The Lord Demon was always number one in the Demon Cave every year. Two thousand years have passed, and no one has been able to break his record.
He solemnly mentioned it to Canglie in front of the statue of the demon god in order to get a good start.
Elder Youman stood with his back to the demon statue, cleared his throat, and was about to speak.
Cang Lie suddenly pointed at the statue in horror, "Master, Master!"
When Elder Youman looked back, the sky had fallen.
The statue of the demon god, which was in good condition just now, began to crack and lose paint, as if the demon god's real body had suffered a huge blow and his soul was dying.
"What's going on?"
Elder Youman’s wails spread throughout the Xuanming Sect.
At the same time, the statues of Jing Zhui worshipped by the demons throughout the region collapsed and toppled over, and many ominous visions occurred in various places.
The demons are in a panic!
…
The Taotie beast had a great harvest. It successfully killed the two overlords, Zhu Chuideng and Jing Zhui, and happily returned to its secret nest to digest the huge power it had just obtained.
When Taotie Beast and Ye Xiaoman met again, both were speechless.
Ye Xiaoman was trapped in the belly of the Taotie beast and could not communicate directly with the outside world, but she could know the movements of the Taotie beast and she could hear everything the Taotie beast was doing clearly.
When the Taotie beast easily tricked Zhu Chuideng, she was tied up like a dumpling and twisted herself on the ground like a maggot in anxiety; when Jing caught up with her, her emotions gradually became numb.
Crazy, crazy, completely crazy!
Why don't you two just give your cultivation to her directly, without any middlemen making a profit from the price difference? When she becomes rich, she will definitely come back to support them.
In response to this, Ye Xiaoman asked immediately when she saw the Taotie beast:
“Excuse me, do I get a commission?”
The Taotie beast knew that Ye Xiaoman was useful, but he didn't expect her to be so useful. The two men were blinded by her beauty, leaving it to make a fortune in silence.
After all, it got it for free, so its attitude towards Ye Xiaoman improved a lot, and it replied with a pleasant face:
"You're overthinking it."
In the treasure house, the transformed spiritual herbs hid aside and watched their conversation. The Taotie beast opened its bloody mouth and sucked several "people" transformed from spiritual herbs into its mouth. Its ferocious fangs closed, green blood splattered, the spiritual herb people screamed, and returned to their original herbal forms and were eaten by the Taotie beast.
The Taotie beast had been running around and playing games all day and was in urgent need of replenishing its strength. It ate more than twenty spiritual herbs in a row before stopping. Ye Xiaoman and the other spiritual herb people huddled aside and shivered.
The Taotie beast enjoyed Ye Xiaoman's fear: "What are you afraid of, you? I will keep you until you are no longer useful, and then I will eat you last."
Ye Xiaoman wanted to cry after hearing this.
When she lost her usefulness was probably when the last half of Jing Zhui and Zhu Chuideng's cultivation was stolen by the Taotie beast. She only had a few days left to live.
The Taotie Beast ordered Ye Xiaoman, "Come with me tomorrow to meet the Ghost Lord and the Demon God."
Ye Xiaoman asked: "How else do you want to trick them?"
The Taotie Beast had already thought of a plan: "They both want you, so I will arrange an auction, and the highest bidder will win."
Ye Xiaoman laughed tiredly after hearing this.
Do I agree?
Why do you vote for me for nothing?
After selling the tickets, I wanted to tear them up.
I owe the whole world my love.
The Taotie beast showed Ye Xiaoman its fist, which was as big as a clay pot, in a show of strength. "Don't try to be clever with me. Tomorrow when we get to the venue, you don't need me to remind you what to say and what not to say."
"Although I'll spare your life, if you dare to disobey me, I can pull out your tongue and break your hands at any time."
Ye Xiaoman nodded obediently: "Brother Tao, don't worry, we are close friends, I will definitely help you coax her into being well."
It has to be said that her fence-sitter nature and her ability to understand the current situation saved her from a lot of torture.
The Taotie Beast was satisfied, and she took the opportunity to lift her hands that were tied behind her back, "Please help me release them first."
The Taotie beast is now invincible in combat power and no longer takes the mere Qi Refining Stage cultivator in its stomach seriously. It readily removes the Immortal Binding Rope from Ye Xiaoman's body.
It preciously entrusted its wish-granting incense burner to the door-god grass for protection.
Hearing some movement behind it, it turned around and saw Ye Xiaoman rummaging through its mountain of gold, silver and treasures. It was about to get furious, but then it saw Ye Xiaoman picking out the spiritual herbs mixed in and arranging them one by one on the ground.
Due to improper storage methods, these precious spiritual herbs have turned into a pile of dry grass stalks and have lost their medicinal properties. They are almost the same as weeds, which is a waste of natural resources.
The Taotie beast is not good at taking care of spiritual herbs. During the intelligence-enhancing, bone-forging, and spirit-tempering stages of its growth, it needs to eat specific spiritual medicines.
When it obtained the spiritual herbs that could only be used in the Bone Tempering Stage during the Awakening Stage, it wanted to store them for later consumption. However, it did not expect that its cultivation speed could not keep up with the withering speed of the spiritual herbs, resulting in a lot of wasted resources.
"I will repair the spiritual herbs." Ye Xiaoman said obediently, intending to let the Taotie beast see her value and create a chance for survival, so she worked hard to help the Taotie beast revive the spiritual herbs.
"Really?" The Taotie beast moved its big, round face filled with evil spirit close to Ye Xiaoman and watched her actions doubtfully.
"Brother Tao, just watch this." Ye Xiaoman used three gold plates to build a simple temporary workbench, picked out a spiritual herb that looked very much like coriander, placed it flat on the table, mobilized the talents of the five spiritual roots, and scanned the inside of the spiritual herb with spiritual energy.
[It is my limb, and it still has a breath left. You can draw my essence and inject it into its stem to activate its vitality.]
Ye Xiaoman suddenly "heard" a spiritual herb talking to her.
She looked in the direction of the voice and saw several transformed spirit grass people hiding far away in the corner. Their clothes were the same color as the grass flowers and leaves, and their long hair was like a green curtain made of grass leaves. They looked very pretty and lovely.
One of the spiritual herb boys had loose green hair that looked just like a handful of vanilla leaves, somewhat similar to the withered spiritual herb in her hand.
