Chapter Twenty-Four: The Golden Snake Advances

There were no words all the way, and four days later, Long Xiaoyao came to the small town at the foot of Huashan Mountain. He first rented a room in the inn, and when he entered the room, he took out three of the demon beast materials he had harvested this time and put them into a storage bag, and put a hundred spirit stones in a storage bag, and finally, he put most of the captured bags of herbs into the Ten Thousand Beast Order space, leaving less than one-fifth in the original fresh-keeping storage bag, and then walked towards Fang City.

Long Xiaoyao did this, the most important thing was that he was worried that Lu Cai would attract the prying eyes of other immortal cultivators, and for the first time, he was simply a poor immortal cultivator, and he also attracted the bad intentions of other scattered cultivators. Now, if others find out his true worth, I am afraid that he will immediately become the target of other immortal cultivators to kill and seize treasures.

Long Xiaoyao soon came to the southwest Fengfang City, and after entering the Fang City, he looked east and west like a country child who had just entered a wealthy family, and he was completely like an idiot who cultivated immortals.

Today's Long Xiaoyao is no longer the idiot who came to Fang City last time, his purpose is to make those who secretly pick targets despise him, and secondly, to check if anyone is following him when he looks around.

Long Yaoyao's caution paid off, and soon he found a sneaky cultivator staring at him from a distance, his cultivation was only level 3 in the Qi cultivation period, which looked very inconspicuous, so that people would not pay attention at all, not to mention that an immortal cultivator of this level would not be too threatening at all.

But this seemingly harmless loose cultivation of humans and animals is a dangerous poisonous snake. He is the eyeliner of a group of loose cultivators who specialize in killing people and grabbing treasures in Fang City, as long as the people he is targeting, they will encounter a sudden interception on the way back.

Long Xiaoyao didn't know this, but he was still cautious, and continued to wander aimlessly in the market, asking questions and touching from time to time, and was even blasted away from his stall by two stall owners, so as not to delay business.

Long Yao's idiotic behavior finally made Sanxiu, who was watching him from afar, lose patience, and turned around and went back to the gate of Fang City to wait for the next prey. There are two groups of loose robbers who have been entrenched in Fengfang City in the southwest for a long time, but there is a tacit understanding between them, and the two groups of people who enter the city take turns to follow and monitor, so the two sides have been at peace with each other.

Long Xiaoyao turned around two more rows of stalls, and after making sure that no one continued to monitor him, he tried to sell the materials of the three level 1 demon beasts separately in the two refining stalls.

Hunting demon beasts and collecting demon beast materials to sell has always been the main way to exchange for spirit stones for casual cultivation, and all this is normal. Moreover, Long Xiaoyao only sold the materials of the first-level demon beasts, and the number was not much, so naturally he did not attract the attention of the stall owner, and increased the value of his property by more than 50 spirit stones.

Long Xiaoyao wandered around to the ordinary alchemy shop, sold the prepared herbs in three shops, and obtained dozens of spirit stones.

Long Xiaoyao finally walked cautiously into the Lotus Pill store. He put 200 spirit stones in a storage bag, and when there were fewer customers, he quickly handed the storage bag to a middle-aged immortal cultivator who looked honest, and exchanged it for a bottle of 100 Qi Gathering Pills.

Long Xiaoyao did not leave Fang Market directly, but went out and toured around the stalls in Fang Market again, and after making sure that no one was following him, he immediately left Fang Market and returned to the small city.

Long Xiaoyao traveled east and west along the way, looking back from time to time, but he didn't encounter any trouble along the way. Back at the inn, he considered his next plan: it didn't make much sense to return to the Evergreen Forest, and the golden snake was still asleep, and without protection, it was extremely unsafe for him to practice.

Now, what Long Xiaoyao was most worried about was the sleeping golden snake, he didn't know other immortal cultivators, and he couldn't ask others. The only thing that reassured him was that the Golden Snake's condition showed no signs of deterioration, and he now observed the Golden Snake several times a day, and the Golden Snake was in a stable state. In the end, he decided to stay in the inn first, while cultivating, while waiting for the golden snake to wake up, if there was any abnormality, it would be easier to cope in the place where the immortal cultivators gathered than in the deserted forest.

Long Xiaoyao's cultivation had originally reached the late stage of the 5th level of the Qi Training Period, and now with the top-grade Qi Gathering Pill, it only took him ten days to advance to the 6th level of the Qi Training Period.

However, after being promoted, Long Xiaoyao found that the effect of the Qi Gathering Pill had been greatly reduced. In fact, this is also normal, the Qi Gathering Pill was originally an elixir for ordinary Qi cultivation period level 4-6 immortal cultivators to assist in cultivation, although he was only level 6 in the Qi training period, but whether it was the breadth of the meridians or the size of the Qi Sea Dantian, it was comparable to an ordinary level 9 immortal cultivator in the ordinary Qi training period.

The effect of cultivating immortals to assist the elixir is to provide a large amount of spiritual power, and the level of taking the elixir is determined according to the amount of spiritual power that the immortal cultivator can bear and need. If the level of the elixir is too high, the spiritual power provided is too large, and the meridians and dantian of the immortal cultivators will not be able to withstand the huge spiritual power and will be torn apart; if the level of the elixir is too low, the spiritual power provided is too small, and the auxiliary effect on the immortal cultivators will be too poor.

Long Xiaoyao's meridians are broad, and the spiritual power that he can naturally withstand is also relatively large, and his dantian is also very broad, and the demand for spiritual power is naturally high.

Fortunately, Long Xiaoyao was originally taking a top-grade Qi Gathering Pill, so he could be promoted to level 6, if it was just an ordinary Qi Gathering Pill, I am afraid that he would have already felt that the effect of the Qi Gathering Pill was insufficient.

But Long Xiaoyao didn't know these principles, and he still continued to take the Qi Gathering Pill for cultivation. However, even if he knew, it was estimated that he would not waste it easily, these pills would cost him a lot of spirit stones. Moreover, although the effect seems to have been greatly reduced, mainly because of his increased demand for spiritual power, the pill is not really a decrease in spiritual power, now, he has no other choice, and taking the Qi Gathering Pill is always better than nothing.

Three days later, Long Xiaoyao's mind suddenly felt the call of the golden snake, and he immediately summoned the golden snake from the Ten Thousand Beasts Order, holding it in his hand to observe the golden snake's condition.

The golden snake seemed to be waking up, but it was still lying motionless in the palm of the dragon's hand. A moment later, a half-inch-long gash suddenly opened on the golden snake's head, but no blood flowed out.

Long Xiaoyao looked at the golden snake worriedly, and was about to take the healing pill and feed it to the golden snake, but at this moment, the golden snake's body moved. The golden snake did not swim, but slowly wriggled its body.

A strange scene appeared in front of Long Xiaoyao's eyes, the head of the golden snake actually drilled out of the cracked position, with the wriggling of the body, the body of the golden snake drilled out of the crack little by little, and only a pale yellow snake was left in Long Xiaoyao's palm, and the golden snake that came out of the snake was lying motionless at his arm. It turns out that this is the way snakes are upgraded: molting to advance.
