Chapter 14 The Evil Guest

With a soft "hiss" sound, the silver needle penetrated deeply into the wooden door, and the long needle tip was exposed on the other side of the door.

Gao Xian was both surprised and delighted. The Baimei needle was much heavier than ordinary sewing needles due to its special material. Its power was also significantly enhanced after being stimulated by magic power.

But to say that it can penetrate heavy armor within ten steps is obviously Huang Ying's sales slogan and should not be taken seriously.

After returning home, Gao Xian felt as if he had been tricked. He thought that he had bought the set of Baimei needles at too high a price.

Fortunately, it is still suitable and not a waste of money.

Huang Ying also had two special sleeve pockets sewn into his sleeves, which were a kind of layered pockets.

He already had it in his sleeves, but this special sleeve pocket was more refined and the layered layout was more reasonable.

The two sleeve pockets can be used to store talismans, spiritual stones, pills, magical instruments, etc. in different categories for easy access.

Gao Xian was very satisfied with this change. His electric light dragon hand was fast and skillful, and the items hidden in the sleeve pockets could be accessed at the fastest speed.

With so many things up your sleeves, you have to be more careful when using the white plum needle.

Especially since the needle holes of the silver wristband are close to the wrist, you may hurt yourself if you are not careful.

There is a rune hidden in the empty silver wristband. By activating the rune with magic power, the white plum needle hidden in the empty slot can be launched.

According to Huang Ying, the Baimei needle is very light and requires very little mana to stimulate, making it just right for a cultivator like him who is at the second level of Qi training.

However, if one wants to control the flying White Plum Needles, one needs to nourish them with magic power every day until a stable connection is established between the person and the White Plum Needles, and then one can control them as desired.

Huang Ying knew that he knew nothing about controlling magical weapons, so she kindly explained a lot of common sense to him.

Gao Xian followed Huang Ying's instructions, holding a white plum needle in his hand and concentrating his mind to activate his magic power.

Sister Lan emerged from the depths of Gao Xian's eyebrows, and a ray of light fell from her. In a trance, Gao Xian felt that there was an invisible connection between him and the Baimei needle.

Gao Xian tried to control the White Plum Needle. His consciousness was transmitted to Sister Lan deep in his brow, and then Sister Lan used her magic power to control the White Plum Needle.

At the same time, he silently recited the mantra to activate the White Plum Needle.

When the mind, speech and body resonate, the three-inch-long silver needle slowly floats up.

Gao Xian could control the white plum needle, but he always felt that it was a little light and difficult to use force and control.

He recalled the first time he learned to ride a bicycle. It was not difficult to ride a bicycle, but he always had difficulty maintaining balance. The bicycle was wobbly and it was difficult to control the direction and strength.

This flying needle is like that unmanageable bicycle, only much more difficult.

Fortunately, Sister Lan was in charge of the overall situation, helping to gather the divine will, condense the magic scroll, and control the magic power. He didn't need to contribute to the most difficult technical details, and controlling the White Plum Needle became much simpler.

After just a few attempts, Gao Xian had already mastered the trick of using the White Plum Needle.

Once the White Plum Needle is placed into the empty slot on the wristband and activated, the speed of the White Plum Needle driven by magic power will be extremely fast, and the difficulty of controlling it will increase a hundred times.

This is like a person who can't even ride a bicycle riding a motorcycle at 200 miles per hour.

The white plum needle shot out instantly lost control and penetrated the wooden door at an extremely high speed, completely deviating from Gao Xian's preset target.

Fortunately, each time the White Plum Needle is activated, very little magic power is consumed, which allows Gao Xian to practice repeatedly.

Gao Xian, who was accustomed to the stable order of his previous life, was completely unable to get used to this dangerous world of cultivating immortals. He was filled with uneasiness at all times.

In modern society, you can lie down and still have enough food and clothes, and you won’t have to worry about your life.

In this world, if you are not careful, you will be killed by others.

If you want to protect yourself, the most reliable thing is to increase your own strength.

It would be fine if he didn't have a way, but he had a rare treasure like Fengyue Baojian in his hand, which provided a clear way to increase his strength. He must roll it up and become the king of scrolls in the world of cultivation!

With this awareness, Gao Xian spent all his time practicing magic and white plum needle.

Relying on the two secret techniques of the Great Puppet Magic and the Electric Photovoltaic Dragon Hand, Gao Xian made rapid progress in his practice, which could be described as rapid progress.

After a few days of practice, Baimei Needle reached the proficient level.

Gao Xian can now activate four White Plum Needles at a time, and can control the White Plum Needles to change direction and accelerate in the middle.

Within ten steps, the Baimei needle is quite accurate. Beyond ten steps, the Baimei needle will become uncontrollable.

At the mastery level, the speed of skill improvement slows down significantly.

With the two spells of Ice Arrow and Flame Bomb, plus the magical weapon White Plum Needle, Gao Xian also felt more confident.

Cultivation is not just about fighting and killing, it is more about the daily life of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Gao Xian also wanted to practice all day long, but he also had to make elixirs.

Only by refining medicine can you earn spirit stones, and with spirit stones you can buy all necessary resources such as spirit rice, magic tools, pills, etc.

The remaining herbs are enough to refine a batch of Guyuan Pills. He must start working as soon as possible to refine the Guyuan Pills.

All kinds of medicinal materials have been prepared, Gao Xian lit the fire and started the furnace.

Gao Xian is now very adept at refining low-level elixirs like Guyuan Dan and is extremely skilled in it.

In between the boring alchemy work, he would pet cats, read books and meditate.

However, cooking is not an option. Fortunately, there is Bailu Dan, one pill can cover a day's consumption, and the spiritual energy it provides is higher than that of spiritual rice and monster meat.

It is simple, convenient and quick to take, and it is really a must-have medicine for home and travel.

Gao Xian cooked some monster meat strips for the kitten in advance, enough for it to eat.

After three days of hard work, the fresh and hot Guyuan Pill came out of the oven.

It's just a big pool of green sticky paste, which looks a bit like sticky mung bean porridge.

Gao Xian rubs the pills with his hands and wraps them with cinnabar to seal the medicinal properties. Thanks to his electric dragon hand, he can do these simple tasks as fast as an automated assembly line.

The work was finally done, and now he could implement his plan.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Gao Xian couldn't help humming a little tune. When he was happy, he heard a slight strange sound.

Gao Xian's heart tightened. It was raining in the middle of the night. Who would come to his house at this time? He wiped his hands hastily and took out a golden body talisman from his sleeve pocket with his right hand.

At the same time, Gao Xian blew out the oil lamp beside him.

The room suddenly became dark, with only the remaining charcoal fire in the alchemy furnace emitting a dark red glow.

Gao Xian withdrew from the range of the charcoal fire. He carefully stuck to the wall, raised his left hand and pointed the white plum needle at the door.

He had absolutely no experience in dealing with this kind of sudden danger. His heart was pounding with nervousness, his breathing was rapid, and the hands holding the golden body talisman felt a little sticky.

After waiting for a while, it started to rain outside. The sound of the rain made the surroundings seem unusually quiet. Apart from that, no other sound could be heard.

This calmness made the atmosphere even more depressing. Gao Xian couldn't help but shout, "Who's outside?!"

Because he was too nervous, Gao Xian's voice was a little sharp, but he himself was unaware of it.

Old Wang, who was hiding outside the door, heard it all, and a disdainful sneer appeared on his old face. This kid usually pretends to be a decent guy, and he even blew out the lights and hid just now. His reaction was very quick, and it turned out that he was almost peeing his pants because of fright!

Fortunately, he is so careful. This is not necessary at all.

Lao Wang felt that he had seen through Gao Xian's ability, so he felt more confident.

He took two steps forward and knocked on the door twice, "Xiao Gao, open the door, it's me!"

Amid the sound of the rushing rain, Old Wang's old voice took on a gloomier tone.

Gao Xian in the alchemy room was startled. It was really Lao Wang!

He said hurriedly: "I am refining the elixir, it is not convenient now. Come back tomorrow..."

"No, I have something urgent to do."

Lao Wang pushed the door impatiently, but failed to open it.

Gao Xian was timid, and the solid wooden door had already been locked tightly with a heavy bolt.

Lao Wang was also experienced and did not waste his energy on the door. He slammed into the window, smashing the window frame into pieces, and rushed into the alchemy room.

"What are you doing?"

Gao Xian screamed and shrank into the corner, while he hurriedly activated the golden body talisman.

A golden light flashed from the sleeves, casting a faint yellow luster on Gao Xian's body.

To activate this kind of magic talisman, a corresponding spell is also needed. Gao Xian has Sister Lan to help activate the spell, so that the Golden Body Talisman can be activated instantly and silently.

Gao Xian felt like he was wearing a layer of translucent tight armor, with a strong sense of being wrapped. His muscles were naturally tense and his body was full of strength. Although he didn't know the specific effect of the Golden Body Talisman, it gave Gao Xian a greater sense of security and a little more confidence.

In the dim room lit only by charcoal fire, Lao Wang did not notice anything unusual about Gao Xian.

He held the sword and sneered at Gao Xian: "Look at you, you are so cowardly. What are you afraid of? I don't eat people..."

The alchemy room was filled with a strong medicinal aroma. Lao Wang glanced at the table and saw a large area of ​​pills densely packed together.

Although he couldn't see the appearance of the pill in the dim light, the familiar smell of the Guyuan Pill could not be hidden from him.

Lao Wang's eyes lit up immediately. So many Gu Yuan Dan were worth at least dozens of spirit stones...
