Chapter 185: Immortal



Li Xiu rolled off the pink nightmare's back, looked at the bride-to-be floating in the air, and then looked at his own fingers. Sure enough, the bride-to-be's magic ring was gone.

With a thought, the bride-to-be turned into a ring and returned to his finger.

Li Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the bride-to-be was still under his control. However, for some reason, she was able to transform herself into a demon spirit.

"This is the first demon spirit that knows hunger. However, the energy of demon spirits is very stable. As long as they are not summoned to fight, their energy will not be consumed. They should not have the concept of hunger. How come the bride-to-be is so special that she actually knows hunger?"

Li Xiu summoned the bride-to-be again, looked at her and asked, "You are hungry, right?"

"Hungry..." the bride-to-be replied softly.

"What do you want to eat?" Li Xiu asked again.

"Ruby," the bride-to-be replied.

Li Xiu took out a ruby ​​from his pocket and gave it to the bride-to-be. The bride-to-be actually said politely: "Thank you, husband..."

Without seeing her make any movement, a red light emanated from the ruby ​​in Li Xiu's hand and merged into the body of the bride-to-be.

The ruby ​​in Li Xiu's hand lost all its color and shattered into powder with a snap.

"Husband, I'm still hungry." said the bride-to-be.

This name, coupled with the eerie tone, made Li Xiu feel uncomfortable, so he said, "Well, can we change the name?"

"My husband, please speak." Although the bride-to-be looked a little eerie and scary, she seemed to have a good temper.

"For example, you can call me Master." Li Xiu said with a smile.

As soon as Li Xiu said this, the bride-to-be suddenly raised her head, and the hair covering her face parted slightly to the side, revealing a blood-red eye that seemed to be dripping with blood. There were blood-red stars flashing in the pupil. She stared at Li Xiu intently and said word by word: "My husband, do you want to divorce me and demote me to a slave?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. The title of master means the most important person close to you, not what you think. If you don't like it, forget it." Li Xiu explained hurriedly. The bride-to-be looked so scary, coupled with her new ability to appear out of nowhere and transform herself into a demon spirit. Li Xiu was really afraid that when he fell asleep, she would appear silently in front of his bed and strangle his neck.

"So that's how it is. I wronged my husband." The bride-to-be lowered her head again and her tone softened a lot, returning to the eerie and distant feeling she had before.

"Since you don't like that name, forget it. I don't have the ruby ​​on me now. I'll give it to you when I get back." Li Xiu only had this ruby ​​on him, so he had to say it to the bride.

"I will follow my husband's instructions in everything." After the bride-to-be said this, she actually changed back into the form of a ring and returned to Li Xiu's finger.

"It comes and goes freely. This evil spirit is truly evil." Li Xiu smiled bitterly to himself.

Fortunately, the bride-to-be was quite obedient, and Li Xiu set out again, and soon arrived at the Golden Gate.

There are not many people in the deep mountains and forests here. The wooden house where Lao Dao used to live has been destroyed long ago, and there is not even a single person around.

Li Xiu took out the prepared golden beryl and inlaid it on the gate, then entered the trial field.

He didn't have the money to buy so many trial badges, so he could only use gems to open the door.

The trial of listening to the dice was not difficult for Li Xiu. He easily completed the B-level trial and chose the attribute reward.

The trials here do have one advantage for him, which is that he can pass them very quickly and does not need to waste time like in a dark maze.

As long as he guesses the size correctly, he can complete the trial. He can complete the trial quickly round after round and get the attribute rewards.

Although the attribute increase is not much, the speed is fast enough. As long as there are enough gems, it is still very satisfying to brush the attributes.

After trying for more than ten times, he finally got the admission ticket, and his original embryo quality became 2.2.

I came to the stone table, but since I had obtained the golden key last time, there was nothing on the stone table this time.

Following the Longevity Lamp into the temple, the human corpses in the temple had already decomposed. Because of his immunity, Li Xiu had no worries. After leaving the side hall, he found that the two black gatekeeper beasts were not in the yard.

Without the gate-guarding beasts, there was nothing to kill in the temple. Li Xiu pushed open the temple door and went down the mountain to kill those berserk beasts.

With an A-level Black Death Demon Lord and his minions leading the way, the herd of frenzied beasts were just piles of experience points and ATMs in Li Xiu's eyes. He only needed to follow behind and pick up things.

Once you get a high-quality magic core, feed it directly to the Jedi Knight and try to raise its level to S-level first.

Li Xiu has already made up his mind. When the Jedi Knight is promoted to S-level, if Ximen Guan's Lightspeed II can be built, he will go to fight for the super spiritual gem in Hongsha City to see if he can use that super spiritual gem to make the Jedi Knight super spiritual.

We killed several groups of berserker beasts along the way, but we didn't encounter any very strong berserker beasts. The most powerful berserker beast was only an A-level Liucai.

Li Xiu continued to go deeper into the forest. There were rolling hills everywhere. Most people would get lost if they walked in like this. However, Li Xiu did not worry about this and kept looking for the place where the frenzied beasts gathered.

After traveling through the deep mountains and forests for more than ten hours, we suddenly saw a strange halo rising from the distant mountain tops.

After observing carefully for a while, I found that the hilltop didn't look anything special, but for some reason, there was a halo like the aurora on the top of the hill.

"Is it the light of a high-level demon spirit?" Li Xiu put away the Black Death Lord, and then sneaked towards the top of the mountain with the Jedi Knights.

The top of the mountain didn't look far away, but it took several hours to walk there, and we even had to kill several groups of frenzied beasts before we reached the foot of the mountain.

Looking from the bottom of the mountain, there is nothing special about it either.

The trees and plants on the mountain are no different from those on the nearby mountains. The mountain is not too high, and there are several mountains nearby that are taller than it.

Of course, these mountains are actually not very high, and the difference between them is not that big. Even mountains over a thousand meters high are hard to see, and most of them are just small hills a few hundred meters high.

Li Xiu led the Jedi Knights to climb up the mountain, but they did not see any berserker beasts on the mountain.

When they reached the top of a nearby mountain, Li Xiu finally understood where the halos came from.

On the top of this hill, there grows a tree with yellow leaves. The black trunk is winding like coral, and the tree is covered with yellow round leaves. The yellow leaves emit a hazy glow, and there is a smoke-like and flame-like breath rising from the tree. The smoke and the glow are intertwined, and from a distance it looks like an ever-changing aurora.

While looking at the strange tree, Li Xiu's eyes suddenly focused.

Under the strange tree, there was a strange vase.

The vase was more than one meter tall, with green patterns on its snow-white body. It looked like a porcelain vase no matter how you looked at it.

It was strange enough that a large porcelain vase would appear in a place like this. What was even stranger was that there were no flowers or plants on the mouth of the vase, but instead there was something that looked like a human head.

The reason why it is said to be a suspected human head is that from Li Xiu's position, he can only see a head of long gray hair hanging down, but cannot see whether there is a human head underneath the long hair.

"It would be great if Chu Jun was here." Li Xiu looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't be sure whether the vase and the human head were evil spirits.

He also didn't smell the scent of the demon spirit, but some demon spirits can hide their scent, and identifying them by smell alone is not necessarily accurate.

Li Xiu had no choice but to go around in another direction, trying to see clearly whether there was a human head on the vase.

But after walking around it, he found that either the trunk of the strange tree blocked his view or the direction was wrong, so he couldn't see the front of the head.

Li Xiu was a little hesitant, wondering whether he should go closer to take a look.

If he encounters an S-level demon spirit, he can still fight, but if the thing in the vase is a super spirit, he is not sure of escaping unscathed.

"Only by staying alive can we become stronger, so it's better to be steady." Li Xiu thought for a moment, turned around and prepared to go down the mountain.

At this moment, the big vase actually moved by itself, began to sway slightly from side to side, and then slowly turned around.

Li Xiu didn't wait for it to turn around and ran down the mountain.

No matter what that thing was, it must have discovered him, and it had been silent before, but when he made up his mind to go down the mountain, it suddenly turned around.

This is obviously abnormal. Before, I wanted to lure him forward, but now that he doesn't want to go up the mountain, I don't know what he is planning.

Clang! Clang!

Li Xiu heard the sound of a vase rolling behind him and immediately ran faster. Unfortunately, although the hill was not steep, it was not suitable for riding the Pink Nightmare, so Li Xiu could only run on his legs.

"How come there is not a single one that can be used as a flying mount among so many monsters?" After running for a while, Li Xiu no longer heard the sound of the vase rolling behind him and breathed a sigh of relief.

He slowed down his pace and looked back. This look almost scared Li Xiu to death.

The big vase had stood behind him at some point, and the head on the vase was now facing him, with the distance between their faces no more than a foot.

How to describe that face? Ugly is not enough to describe his ugliness.

The face was covered with wrinkles like old tree bark, and the eyes were not visible at all. There were more wrinkles where the eyes were, like two **.

The flesh on the nose was hanging down, and the mouth was blocked by the folds. Although there was no bloody or dirty scene, it made people feel even more disgusted.

Li Xiulian took several steps back to distance himself from the thing, and the Jedi Knight held his sword in front of him.

The vase didn't move, but the wrinkles on the man's face were wriggling like worms, which made people's scalps numb. After a while, two thin cracks finally appeared in the eye-like area.

Because the gap was too thin, and the surrounding area was filled with wrinkles and hanging flesh, the white of the eye and the pupil were completely invisible. All that could be seen was a hint of green light in the eye.

The moment his eyes met with the head, Li Xiu felt his brain go dark. He was in a daze and walked towards the vase-like head involuntarily.

The red light in the eyes of the Jedi Knight standing by dimmed, and the samurai sword in his hand fell to the ground. He stood there blankly, as if possessed.

Li Xiu's eyes were dull and he walked to the vase like a zombie.

The flesh on the human face moved, and he seemed very excited, and the green light in the slits of his eyes became brighter.

Li Xiu had already walked in front of the human head, and his face was about to touch the disgusting face of the clown head.

The vase head slowly opened its mouth, the folds on its mouth turned up, revealing sharp white teeth like saw teeth, and its bloody red tongue licked its wrinkled lips, as if it couldn't wait any longer.

Suddenly, there was a flash of red light.

With a clang, the Fire Lotus Sword in Li Xiu's hand slashed on the vase.

He originally wanted to chop off the human head, but the head actually reacted and the vase suddenly spun and flew up. The Fire Lotus Sword failed to chop off the human head and instead hit the spinning vase.

The vase that looked like porcelain was hit by the Fire Lotus Sword and Li Xiu's full force, but the vase was not broken into pieces. Instead, the Fire Lotus Sword was bounced away.

"You are such a vicious boy, you actually dared to plot against me." The vase-headed man finally spoke, his voice was as sharp and cracked as a broken gong, and it sounded effeminate.

"It was you who plotted against me first." Li Xiu held the Fire Lotus Sword and stared coldly at the vase head.

Now he can be sure that this guy is not a demon, but a human.

But why a person would put himself in a vase, and in such a place, was something he couldn't understand.

However, it is certain that this disgusting vase monster should not have high combat power, but his eyes have evil powers and can control the will of others.

Even the Jedi Knights were caught in the attack. This ability is more powerful than the previous Phantom Sea Clam.

Fortunately, Li Xiu's spiritual awareness is too strong, and this ability cannot have any effect on him.

The vase monster has been trying to lure Li Xiu into looking into his eyes, which shows that his own fighting ability is not high, otherwise there would be no need to go through so much trouble.

"You are actually not fooled by my blindfold. Are you the chief or elder of Changshengtian?" The vase-like man asked Li Xiu while staring at him.

"Are you also from Changshengtian?" Li Xiu asked back.

"Bah, Changshengtian is worthy of it." The vase man seemed very disdainful, even a little disgusted.

"Who are you?" Li Xiu was a little surprised. Apart from Changshengtian, he really couldn't think of anyone else who could do such a bizarre thing.

"Hehe, kid, since you are from Changshengtian, have you heard of immortals?" The vase monster closed his eyes and laughed.

The sound of his laughter was extremely strange, and the wrinkles on his face were wriggling, which made Li Xiu feel like vomiting.

"I'm sorry, I'm not from Changshengtian. What do you mean by immortals?" Li Xiu said indifferently.

"Impossible, don't try to fool me. If you are not from Changshengtian, how can you become a trial-taker and possess a demon spirit of such level?" The vase monster suddenly opened his eyes again and stared at Li Xiu, but this time there was no green light in his eyes.

"What era is it now? Trial-takers have become common and can be seen everywhere on the streets." Li Xiu said nonsense. He had already discovered that this vase weirdo had been here for an unknown period of time and had no idea about what was happening outside.

Although people now know the true situation of the trial-takers because of the Magic Spirit Competition, there are still only a few who actually become trial-takers. How can they be everywhere on the streets?

The vase man was frightened by him, and his eyes like two slits kept staring at Li Xiu, as if trying to determine whether what he said was true or false.

"Who are you?" Li Xiu asked again when he saw that he didn't speak.

"Everyone knows the secret of the trial-taker. Does that mean Changshengtian is dead?" The vase man stared at Li Xiu and asked.

"How could Changshengtian die? It is still a holy land that trial-takers yearn for, but ordinary people just don't have the chance to join." Li Xiu spoke nonsense, but it sounded like it was true.

"Who is the current president of Changshengtian?" The vase man obviously still didn't believe it.

"I haven't joined Changshengtian yet, so how would I know who the president of Changshengtian is? But I have received the black invitation card. After I join Changshengtian and meet the legendary president, I will tell you who he is. But I guess you won't live to see that time. You wanted to kill me just now, so we have to settle this account." Li Xiu raised the Fire Lotus Sword in his hand, ready to attack the vase monster.

"Wait, if you really want to join Changshengtian, you can't kill me." The vase man said with a strange smile.

"Why? You are not from Changshengtian. What does my joining Changshengtian have to do with you?" Li Xiu asked him coldly.

"Do you know the blood-seal stone?" said the vase man.

"I've heard of it." Li Xiu's heart skipped a beat.

"If you haven't been hit by the Blood Seal Stone yet, I can teach you a way so that you won't be controlled by the Blood Seal Stone." The vase man stared at Li Xiu and said.

"What method?" Li Xiu asked.

Seeing Li Xiu's reaction, the vase man believed it a little more, but he still didn't let down his guard completely. He looked at Li Xiu and said, "Let me taste a drop of your own blood."

"What are you trying to do?" Li Xiu frowned.

"I can tell from your blood whether you have been infected by the Blood Seal Stone. Only if you have not been infected by the Blood Seal Stone can I trust you and teach you how to deal with the Blood Seal Stone." The Vase Man explained.

"If you don't believe me, how can I believe you? How do I know that you want my blood, not my life? You'd better tell me who you are." Li Xiu said.

"Who am I? Hehe, I am an immortal, an old monster who has lived with the president of Changshengtian for thousands of years. In the past, when your president saw me, he would respectfully call me 'Sir'. So who do you say I am?" The vase monster said with a smile, but his voice made people feel that his laugh was uglier than crying.

"So... who are you?" Li Xiu asked in a daze.

"Are you really not from Changshengtian?" The vase man stopped laughing and looked at Li Xiu suspiciously, thinking that he did not seem to be pretending.

If he was really a person from Changshengtian, it wouldn't make sense for him to have no reaction at all after hearing what I just said.

In the past, countless great men joined Changshengtian for the secret of immortality.

Unfortunately, generation after generation, so many talented people have died in Changshengtian, but only a few can truly achieve immortality.
