Shen Mu curiously came to the side of the corpse of one of the giant pythons.

Just in case, he stretched out his index finger, which had turned into wood, and pressed it against its bulging abdomen.

The snake's skin was cold and hard, and its body was like a sausage, filled with an unknown substance.

But even through this layer of snakeskin, he could feel the warmth of the filling inside.

"It's weird."

The contents seemed to be inexplicably attractive to him, and he controlled his index finger to grow several tendrils, piercing the belly of the python and entering it.

Suddenly, a wave of energy poured into his body along the roots.

"I didn't expect it to be filled with soil?"

Shen Mu was still familiar with the feeling of soil, but these soils were much more fertile than ordinary soil, full of energy that could be absorbed.

As soon as his roots poked into it, the nutrients burrowed into his roots.

Since the last time he absorbed the severed head armor, the energy stored in Shen Mu's body was not much, and there were only a few fruits produced by the human-faced peach.

After the battle in Changfeng City, these energies were nearly half lost.

At this moment, it was like a golden roast chicken suddenly appeared in front of someone who had been hungry for a long time. The roots sticking out of Shen Mu's index finger became thicker and thicker, stirring wantonly in the python's body.

After a while, the small white umbrella gradually withered, and the python's full belly slowly deflated.

The fertile soil inside has turned into grains of sand.

"Oops, I was too selfless for a while, and I absorbed all the energy in it."

Shen Mu hurriedly pulled out his roots and looked around, fortunately there was no one else here.

"It's really a tree now......"

Looking at the python underground, he found that sometimes his behavior pattern was similar to that of a tree, and when he met the fertile soil, he wanted to take root in it.

"What are you doing here?"

At this moment, a figure walked out from the depths of the dark room.

"Elder Bai?!"

Shen Mu was pondering, and when he saw Elder Bai suddenly appearing, he couldn't help but be startled.

Under the cold flames, Elder Bai's robe was covered with fresh blood, like a butcher who had just finished dismembering his livestock.

However, compared to the butcher's skillful methods, he seems to be more brutal, and mishandled, thus causing a stain of flesh and blood.

At that time, compared to these, Shen Mu's arms surprised him.

At this time, the sleeves above his arms were rolled up high, and the palms of his hands were covered with long black hairs all the way to his elbows.

But these black hairs don't look like human or animal hair from the material, but like the fluff on a peach, just a little exaggerated.

After perceiving Shen Mu's eyes, Elder Bai clenched his fists, his brows tightened, as if he was exerting force, and finally these black hairs slowly retracted under his skin.

"Those who do what we do will have this problem more or less. If the body is in contact with the flesh and soil for a long time, some superfluous things will grow on the body, and at the moment I'm fine, just some black hair. ”

Elder Bai pulled down his sleeves, patted the blood stains on his body, and explained to Shen Mu, "I don't know what will grow in the future." ”

"Meat?"

Shen Mu stood up and asked Elder Bai in front of him.

"Flesh soil, it's a kind of artificial spiritual soil, using powerful creatures as raw materials, you can create soil suitable for the growth of spiritual plants, but this kind of thing is too nutritious, and long-term contact is not very friendly to non-plant creatures."

Hearing this, Shen Mu nodded. At the same time, I can't help but think of the person who is used to feed the peach blossom view of the peach blossom view, aren't the two similar?

This Elder Bai is afraid that he is not a cult monk secretly hidden by the Qingling Sect.

However, he immediately denied his idea, if Elder Bai was a cult cultivator, he was afraid that he would immediately wipe himself out.

Moreover, he himself said that this flesh is harmful to the flesh.

And he was the only one in the dark room, and there were no other disciples, maybe it was to protect them.

A cult monk would not take such good care of his disciples.

"By the way, look, the two snakes next to your feet are one of the flesh and dirt I created......"

With a proud smile on his face, Elder Bai looked at the giant python flesh beside Shen Mu's feet, and the smile on his face instantly froze, "How can this be?" ”

He immediately squatted down and put his hand into the snake's mouth, but only pulled out a handful of dry sediment, "Is it so quickly exhausted?" Impossible? ”

At this time, Shen Mu, the initiator, stood aside and laughed dryly, "Just now, I touched it, and it became like this." ”

"What, it's you?"

Elder Bai hurriedly got up and grabbed Shen Mu's hand, his face full of disbelief.

"Elder Bai, if you have something to say, won't I compensate you?"

Shen Mu tried his best to break free of Elder Bai's hand, but found that it was like a pincer that had bitten to death, tightly fastened to his wrist.

"Don't move, I'm checking your body! It's really a shame, if people absorb the energy in the flesh and soil, the body will be partially vegetative. ”

"Vegetative?"

After hearing Elder Bai's words, Shen Mu quieted down.

Is the black hair on his arm just now a precursor to vegetation?

But I'm a plant, so I shouldn't have any big problems.

"Strange? Everything is normal? ”

Finding nothing unusual, Elder Bai let go of his hand, "Count yourself lucky, those nutrients may not have entered your body, but even if they do, I can't care so much, who told you to be idle?" ”

Elder Bai flicked his sleeves, and then drove Shen Mu out of the dark room, followed by himself.

Suddenly coming from the gloomy environment to the bright outside of the cave, Shen Mu couldn't help but squint his eyes.

"By the way, what are you doing with me?"

Elder Bai looked at Shen Mu and asked.

"The tutor said to ask me to remind you."

Shen Mu said his intention, but he felt that Elder Bai knew his intention, and he was just asking knowingly here.

"What a killer...... But I may not be able to give you that 10,000-year-old spirit grass? ”

"Ten Thousand Year Spirit Grass?"

Shen Mu was shocked, it turned out that their bet was this?

Also, his master's heart is really big, and he asked himself to take the 10,000-year-old spirit grass, are you really afraid that you will be greedy for a while and swallow it privately?

However, now it seems that Elder Bai is going to act like a scoundrel.

"Why?"

"Why? You kid just destroyed the flesh and dirt I worked so hard to make, and you forgot it so quickly? That's a three-thousand-year-old python demon embryo, and it was destroyed like this by your kid? ”

Elder Bai had a painful look on his face, accusing Shen Mu of what he had done.

"Didn't I say I'd pay you for it?"

Shen Mu could see it, and this person probably wanted to seize this point to deny it.

"Compensation? You build a small foundation, can you afford to lose? ”

Elder Bai stroked his beard and sighed, "Forget it, I won't embarrass you, so let's do it, I can't give it for ten thousand years, I can only give you a seven-thousand-year-old spirit grass." ”

The old boy's true purpose is finally revealed.

"Elder Bai, that's not how the accounts are calculated, right? This is not a simple matter of addition and subtraction, 10,000 years is a qualitative change compared to 1,000 years! ”

Shen Mu is not easy to deceive, he knows in his heart, the 10,000-year-old spirit grass can't top your seven or eight thousand-year-old spirit grasses? As for the 3,000-year-old python, I don't know if there are 3,000 years!

For a long time, the two were silent, their eyes facing each other.

"That's it, I'll go and call my master."

Shen Mu didn't want to waste any more time, so he turned around and walked for more than ten steps, and Elder Bai's voice came from behind him.

"Wait, come back. Really, take it! ”

Elder Bai took out a cold jade box, and after looking at it a few times, he reluctantly handed it to Shen Mu, "Put it away, be careful to be seen by others." ”

Shen Mu hurriedly took the box, didn't look at it, and put it directly into the storage bag. This is definitely a 10,000-year-old spirit grass, because a trace of life breath overflowing from it makes him restless.

"Thank you Elder Bai for your success, that junior will go back to his life."

"Wait, where are you going, you kid, you still have to accompany me with three thousand pythons?"

Shen Mu sighed, almost forgetting about it, although he had said before that he would compensate him, but he really didn't have anything on him, and the only thing worth it might be Feiyun who had just started.

"Elder Bai is suitable to take a look at this sword?"

Shen Mu handed Feiyun to Elder Bai, helpless, he could only do this at the moment.

"Hmm...... I didn't think it was still Elder Huang's handiwork, but it had some value. ”

Elder Bai looked at the Yellow Rank Superb Flying Sword handed over, shook his head, and shook it back, "However, I don't know any swordsmanship, why do you want such a broken sword?" ”

"And what do you want, Spirit Stone?"

Shen Mu retracted the flying clouds, and suddenly felt a burst of trouble in his heart.

"What do I want?"

At this time, Elder Bai moved his gaze to Shen Mu, looked him up and down, and smiled.
