"Bait? Millennial demon? ”

Shen Mu's face was embarrassed, "Uncle Mo didn't make fun of me?" ”

The strength of the Millennium Demon is not to mention the middle and late stages of foundation building, and even more, it may have broken through the Jindan and become a hegemon, using itself as bait, isn't this pushing yourself into the fire pit?

Although his life is tenacious, he is not used to play like this.

"Master and nephew, don't panic, you and I are a family, if I am not fully prepared, how dare I open my mouth to your master and agree to let you do such a dangerous thing?"

After sensing Shen Mu's emotions, Luo Kuan hurriedly explained,

"In this operation, the family will send a Jindan guest to help, your task is only to be responsible for luring it out, you don't have to worry about other things."

"And this time our target is a mussel essence, although it has two thousand years of cultivation, but its strength is only half a step Jindan. A clam monster who is good at defensive spells, but is not proficient in attack techniques. At that time, I will also lend you a defensive magic weapon, which can easily block the two full-strength attacks of Jindan Zhenren when charged, so you can rest assured. ”

When he said this, Shen Mu was already thinking about it, and seeing this, Luo Kuan increased his chips again,

"Naturally, I won't let you do it in vain this time. First of all, the reconstruction of the Shen family, whether it is manpower or material resources, I will sponsor it. Secondly, if you succeed in killing the clam spirit this time, you will have a share of the spoils. ”

"Spoils?"

Shen Mu was a little moved, his vitality was tenacious, and he still had the power to protect himself in the face of powerful enemies. Moreover, if the other party agrees to fund the Shen family, then he can save a lot of trouble.

The Shen family can also take this opportunity to reconcile with the Luo family, easily gain a foothold in Changfeng City, and when he leaves to travel in the future, the Shen family can also find a backer.

As for the thousand-year-old monster, the whole body is a treasure, but I don't know what the other party can do, so Shen Mu asked immediately.

"What does my nephew think is the most precious thing in a river mussel?"

Luo Kuan didn't answer Shen Mu directly, but asked him a question.

Mussel meat? Demon pill? Spirit? Or a mussel shell with extremely high defense? Or is it pearls?

In Shen Mu's impression, river mussels are often raised to produce pearls, but I don't know if this river mussel that turns into a monster will be a little different.

"Could it be the thousand-year-old pearl bred on the mussel demon?"

Shen Mu looked at Luo Kuan, and then said his answer, but after hearing this, the other party shook his head.

"That's half right. The most precious thing on an ordinary river mussel is indeed a pearl, but it is different after becoming a demon. It is no longer a pearl that is bred from it, and in general, we call it an elixir. ”

"Pills?"

Shen Mu looked puzzled, isn't that thing only produced in the Dan Furnace, when will the clam demon be able to produce pills?

"I told you to read a book, but I don't know where you looked? It all made your uncle laugh. Jiang Chongshu, who had never opened his mouth, shook his head and began to popularize science for Shen Mu, and only at this time did he look like a mentor and friend.

"The human race has alchemists, and the demon race naturally has it."

"Among them, the most talented is naturally the clam demon clan. When they are not demons, they turn the stones they swallow into pearls. After becoming a demon, the first enlightenment of the spirit is no longer satisfied with just swallowing stones. ”

"At this time, their bodies are like a natural living pill furnace, swallowing the heavenly and earthly treasures, and then using their innate skills, they absorb all the impurities in these materials, leaving only the essence part, and forming the elixir."

"I see."

Shen Mu nodded, and secretly decided in his heart that he would read more books in the future to supplement his common sense.

"Moreover, the elixir produced by the clam demon has fewer impurities and is more refined, which is a rare good thing."

Speaking of this, Jiang Chongshu did not hide it, and gestured to Shen Mu with his eyes.

After Shen Mu saw it, of course he understood that he was asking Luo Kuan for the elixir of the clam demon as a reward.

However, Luo Kuan was obviously aware of the interaction between the master and apprentice, and took the lead in speaking, "After the matter is completed, if the master and nephew want this elixir, I can give you a part of it as a reward." ”

Luo Kuan looked very generous, but if he didn't feel distressed at all, it was naturally fake. But the topic here was deliberately raised by him, in order to guide Shen Mu to think of this, to draw out this incomparably precious clam demon elixir, and then use it to tempt Shen Mu to work hard for himself.

As the child of a merchant family, he understood from an early age that a transaction can only be made when there is a loss.

"Since Uncle Shi has spoken, Shen Mu is disrespectful."

In this way, Shen Mu agreed to Luo Kuan's request.

Although he was extremely reluctant at first, he couldn't help it, the other party gave too much, and there must be a brave man under the heavy reward. And because of the situation, it's hard for me to refuse.

However, at this time, there was one more reason in his heart that he had to go, after all, it was not easy to find a monster with such qualifications.

"Gotta find a way to fuse it together."

Shen Mu's face was calm, but his heart was excited.

The elixir is only temporary for him, but if he successfully fuses this river mussel demon, it means that he has a great possibility of obtaining its alchemy ability, and this deal can be supplied!

"Hahaha, that's great. If there is a teacher and nephew to join, this matter is already secure. Then, the purpose of my trip has been achieved, and I will not disturb your cultivation. ”

After that, Luo Kuan and Shen Mu agreed to meet here in three days, and then set off together for the destination.

After that, he gave a brief salute to Jiang Chongshu and left Xunyin Mountain.

Looking at Luo Kuan's figure disappearing into the sky, Shen Mu turned around, and when he was about to say goodbye to his master, he found that he had a rare seriousness on his face.

"For this time I privately answered the unreasonable request of my junior brother for you, will you blame the teacher?"

"The apprentice doesn't dare, Uncle Shi's mission is well paid, and the apprentice is too late to be happy, so how can he blame Shizun?"

"If you say that, then I'll be at ease." With that, Jiang Chongshu took out a silver-white long sword from the air beside him and plunged it into his chest unexpectedly.

With a "poof", the sharp blade smoothly pierced his body, bringing out a cold light stained with blood behind him.

"Master?"

Shen Mu was taken aback by this sudden scene, and was about to step forward to stop him, but was stopped by Jiang Chongshu stretching out his other hand.

I saw that he showed a painful look, the muscles on his face twitched, and then he gritted his teeth and pulled out the blood-stained long sword.

The blood quickly merged into the sword body, and at the same time, a vast sword qi rippled out around with Jiang Chongshu as the center, and for a while, the wind gusted from the peak, like a blade, and Shen Mu's face hurt.

"Is this a blood sacrifice?"

Shen Mu lowered his body, lowered his center of gravity to prevent himself from being swept away by the wind, and then raised his hand to block his face.

He squinted his eyes in the wind and sand, looking at Jiang Chongshu's twisted figure in the sword storm of blades, even if he recognized this move, it was the Blood Sacrifice Technique, but compared to when he used it, he didn't know how many times it was going berserk.

I don't know how long it took, the storm finally stopped, and the whistling sound that raged in his ears disappeared, and at this moment, between heaven and earth, it was extremely quiet, so quiet that Shen Mu thought that he had lost his hearing.

"This is a use of blood sacrifice, with the body as the scabbard, with the heart and blood as the nourishment, the sword will be sent to the heaven and the earth, and a sword can be pulled out to cut all kinds of things in the world."

In Shen Mu's ears, Jiang Chongshu's voice sounded, "However, you must not learn from me, this trick is extremely depleting to the body, and it cannot be used until the last resort." ”

"And what are you?"

Shen Mu woke up from the vast sword intent coercion, he looked at Jiang Chongshu, and didn't understand what his intention was in this move, was it to guide himself?

"You can't have the heart to hurt others, you can't have the heart to defend people, even if the other party is your uncle, you need to be careful. And this time, it may be dangerous. Jiang Chongshu let go of the hand holding the hilt of the sword, and the sword slowly floated towards Shen Mu.

Shen Mu looked at the silver sword hanging in front of his chest, and on the blade of the sword, there was a layer of sharp jagged sword light, as if as long as his master swung down his sword, he could cut out a sword qi that overturned the heavens and the earth.

"This sword is my saber, and I have infused it with a trace of sword energy, which you can use to defend yourself when necessary. Ordinary Jin Dan, if you are defenseless, eat this blow, and you will not die or be disabled. ”

"Actually, at first, I didn't agree with you going down the mountain, but my generation practiced in order to go out and see the world, and I have been nesting in this mountain, and I will eventually have limitations. So, take this opportunity to go out and have some travel. ”

Shen Mu looked at Jiang Chongshu and did not speak, but stretched out his trembling hand and held the sword tightly in his hand, but for some reason, there was a warm current on the cold metal.

"After using it, remember to return it, it's just such a sword for the teacher."

Jiang Chong smiled, but his face was a little pale.
