From this day on, Liu Xiaolou straightened his attitude, no longer ran away blindly, and was ready to start practicing. The spirit stones accumulated in the Qiankun bag, except for the ones used, the remaining forty or so pieces were in it, which was enough to maintain his cultivation for a year.

Provided, of course, that the dryad doesn't eat him.

These days, the dryad will occasionally deliver food to him, or a bird flying over, or a hare that accidentally passes by, sometimes not once a day, sometimes a wild boar again.

Liu Xiaolou always couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he was not very tasty, not as good as that spirit leopard, so the dryad was not appetizing? Or maybe the dryad is going to "fatten" him before eating it?

And one's own cultivation is actually speeding up one's own death?

But at the moment, there is no other way, but to hope for improving cultivation, striving to break through to the ninth layer of qi refining before the spirit stones are exhausted, and then see if there is a chance to escape.

He would also come to the bottom of the spirit leopard, look up at this spirit beast that had been dying for more than half a month, but had never died, and sighed secretly: If it weren't for you......

On this day, when he adjusted his mental state and went to the Qiankun bag to get the spirit stone, he suddenly noticed the drum and flute that had been hidden in the corner for many years, and an idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

This drum flute was captured nearly three years ago in the battle of life and death by the water, and Liu Xiaolou still remembers the scene of Brother Badong controlling the soul shadow of the great snake. After the death of Brother Padang, the soul shadow of the snake Gu that he had refined dissipated and annihilated, and the drum flute degenerated into a new flute again.

Later, he also took the time to study the "Snake Gu Secret Method" that was also seized from the monk Padang, and had a certain understanding of how to cultivate Gu worms. It's just that he hasn't had a chance to meet a spirit snake worthy of refining Gu, so he delayed it.

Although "The Secret Method of Snake Gu" describes the method of raising a spirit snake and refining a spirit snake into a snake Gu, it is actually the same reason, and it can also be used for other spirit beasts.

If you can refine this spirit leopard into a leopard Gu, wouldn't your strength increase greatly, and at that time, with the spirit leopard soul shadow as a cover, maybe you can really escape from the trap of the tree demon!

As soon as he thought of it, Liu Xiaolou temporarily put aside his plan to practice Xuanzhen Gong and re-studied the "Snake Gu Secret Method". Nearly three years have passed, and when I read this book again, what I realized and understood was a little deeper.

After going through all the steps in his mind twice to make sure that it was right, Liu Xiaolou took out the drum and flute, recognized the hole and played it, and suddenly there was a whimper sound in the forest.

At first, the flute was not proficient and could not do the "dumb" sound required in the "Snake Gu Secret Method", but after continuing to practice for many days and mastering the method of true element operation, the sound of "breaking dumbness" appeared.

After practicing proficiently and calibrating the timbre, Liu Xiaolou aimed at the spirit leopard hanging in mid-air and played the song of "Dementor".

The current state of the spirit leopard is the most perfect state required in the "Snake Gu Secret Method", that is, it is in a state of free consciousness, not distinguishing one's own body, and not seeing external objects.

Usually, to absorb the soul of the spirit beast, it is necessary to completely subdue the selected spirit beast and beat it to a muddy situation where it is neither completely unconscious nor completely awake, which is actually the most difficult.

Of course, the strength of the selected spirit beast is the stronger the better, if it is close to the strength of the Gu refiner, or even exceeds, the Gu refiner will either not be able to subdue it, or even if it is subdued, it will most likely be seriously injured, or even killed by mistake.

Only when the strength of the Gu refiner far exceeds that of the spirit beast, it is relatively easy to achieve this goal, but in this way, the strength of the spirit beast is weak, and the spirit beast Gu that is refined is not interesting, which is the main reason why Liu Xiaolou has not refined Gu for three years.

Therefore, the current spirit leopard is very suitable for Gu refining, which directly saves Liu Xiaolou the most difficult level.

When the song of "Dementor" sounded, the demon tree seemed to feel a little uneasy, and the branches and vines trembled, as if a strong wind was blowing, which frightened Liu Xiaolou to stop playing the flute, and waited for a long time in fear until the demon tree stopped trembling.

Then it was played again, the demon tree trembled uneasily again, and Liu Xiaolou stopped playing again.

After doing this repeatedly, the demon tree finally adapted to the sound of the flute, and Liu Xiaolou finished the song of "Dementorship" completely.

When the last note ended, Liu Xiaolou seemed to feel the spirit leopard

When he opened his eyes, his blue gaze dimmed a little, and at the same time, there seemed to be something inexplicable in the drum flute.

Playing the song "Dementor" is quite consuming and does a lot of damage to his thoughts, he feels very tired, and he falls asleep at the moment, snoring like thunder.

The next day, after sleeping well and eating another meal of the hare caught by the tree demon, Liu Xiaolou cheered up and continued to play the drum and flute, and at the end of the song, the blue gaze of the spirit leopard weakened a little again, and the inexplicable things in the drum and flute added a little.

Liu Xiaolou endured his temperament for half a month, meditated and recovered when the true yuan was exhausted, and ate the meat and fruits fed by the tree demon when he was hungry, and one day, the eyes of the spirit leopard were finally completely closed, and there was no brilliance in his eyes.

He came to the spirit leopard, reached out and reached over, and noticed that the spirit leopard no longer had a trace of breath.

On the contrary, the weight of the drum and flute has increased a little.

At this point, the spirit leopard is completely dead.

Liu Xiaolou tried to pick the branches and buds of the demon tree that had been pierced into the spirit leopard's body, but these branches and buds were still tightly inserted under the skin of the spirit leopard, and it was difficult to pull them out. It took a long day to pull out a small section of the branch bud, and found that the branch bud was wriggling by itself, and the bud head was still oozing out a little blood, which made his scalp numb.

As soon as he threw the bud far away, a vine silently drew behind itself, and with a blow on his shoulder, it whipped him out.

The tree demon pumped quite fiercely, and Liu Xiaolou flew out ten zhang away like a cloud, but as soon as he flew out of the range of the canopy, he was immediately entangled in a volley of several rattans, dragged back, and fell heavily to the ground.

Got up, the shoulder hurt hotly!

He didn't dare to move anymore, so he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to enter the next step of cultivation according to the Snake Gu Secret Method.

The flute sounded, and it was a new song, the title of which was "Nourishing the Soul".

This piece no longer feels tearing, but is very good, and the tune is slow and calm, and it sounds quite comfortable. When Liu Xiaolou practiced for two days and successfully completed the whole piece for the first time, his eyelids drooped, he felt a thick tiredness, and fell asleep on the spot.

When I woke up, it was another sunny day.

After eating and drinking, I continued to play "Nourishing the Soul", and after playing, I fell asleep again, and after so many days, I only felt refreshed and energetic.

On this day, when he played the song "Nourishing the Soul", he completely blended into the tune, forgetting where he was, forgetting when he was, and even forgetting himself, and the tune was filled with warmth, peace, and quietness.

When the song was finished, he finally did not fall asleep again, and was in a comfortable mood, happy and peaceful.

Suddenly, the canopy of the trees was full of birds and birds, and among the surrounding bushes and grasses, countless rabbits, rats, sheep, deer and other small creatures poked out, all of which were staring at him intently.

After a long time, the canopy of the tree trembled slightly, and the birds and finches full of trees fluttered their wings and flew away, and the surrounding rabbits, rats, deer and sheep scattered in a hurry.

He looked at the drum and flute in his hand, and at some point, a faint light and shadow peeked out from one end of the flute, and after a while, it quickly shrank back again.
