Having been given a second chance at life, I choose to join the Demonic Sect!

Chapter 24 The Innate Metal Body (Please continue reading!)
Cao Meng felt that although he had suffered at the sect's canteen, he had gained a lot from the experience.

Thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones, a fourth-grade low-grade attack talisman, and a cultivation technique.

And from now on, we can also go to the cafeteria's storeroom and get ingredients for free.

Blood earned!
Looking at An Yingji's fair face in his arms, Cao Meng felt an itch to touch her and decisively reached out to knead her.

Cao Meng pinched An Yingji's delicate nose and then her phoenix-like cheeks.

An Yingji: Cao Meng, you wouldn't even spare a patient like me, you're a beast!
After Cao Meng carried An Yingji to her residence, he intended to enter, but the array set up in An Yingji's residence was immediately activated, blocking the two of them from entering.

"Who are you trying to protect yourself from by leaving a magic array to lock the door?"
"Even if I wanted to send you back now, there's no way!"

Cao Meng, who was blocked at the door, slapped An Yingji's buttocks to vent his anger!
It feels good in hand!

Cao Meng then made a few more moves. He figured An Yingji was unconscious and wouldn't know anything anyway, so he wasn't afraid.

"Sleeping like a log!"

"Forget it, let's go back to my place first!"

Given An Yingji's situation, Cao Meng certainly couldn't just leave her at the door.

Left with no other choice, he could only carry An Yingji to his residence.

Cao Meng's original dilapidated house and courtyard have been repaired thanks to the hard work of the servants who worked through the night.

Although it is still somewhat inferior to An Yingji's residence.

However, at least the desolation has faded, and the courtyard is now full of spring colors!

Cao Meng threw the unconscious An Yingji onto the brand-new bed. Seeing that she was still like a dead fish, he was immediately troubled.

The renovation of my own residence has just been completed, and I, the owner, haven't even had a chance to enjoy the new bed yet, but that woman An Yingji has already enjoyed it. It's infuriating!

The bed was also quite large; even with An Yingji lying on it, there was still plenty of space.

Cao Meng sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at An Yingji, and muttered to himself:
"In my previous life, when you were chasing me, I swore that if you ever fell into my hands, I would definitely deal with you!"
"If this weren't the Hehuan Sect, I would have definitely taken care of you today!"

"But we can ask for some interest back!"

In his previous life, Cao Meng suffered a lot when he was being hunted down by An Yingji.

Now, An Yingji, this dead fish, lies right in front of him, at his mercy.

He felt he would be letting himself down if he didn't collect some interest.

An Yingji, who was unconscious, seemed to sense the danger and suddenly trembled.

"Ugh~"

An Yingji's attack was sudden, and she vomited directly on Cao Meng and herself.

After vomiting, An Yingji returned to her dead-fish-like state and lay obediently on the bed.

"An Yingji, you did this on purpose, didn't you!"

Cao Meng looked at An Yingji and let out an angry shout.

"Cleansing Mantra!"

Left with no other choice, Cao Meng cast a purification spell to remove the filth that An Yingji had spat on him.

Cao Meng originally didn't want to care about An Yingji, but since she was lying on his bed, he would suffer if he didn't take care of her.

Left with no other choice, Cao Meng could only cast a cleansing spell on An Yingji as well, to help her cleanse herself.

After cleaning An Yingji up, Cao Meng flipped the dead fish over and swung his big hands at her buttocks from both sides. Who told this dog of a woman to vomit like that!
Cao Mengyi didn't know how many times he hit her, until An Yingji's shapely buttocks were swollen from the blows, at which point he quickly stopped!

Cao Meng only hoped that An Yingji would not discover this matter when she woke up.

……

After Cao Meng stopped bullying An Yingji, he took out a golden fruit and played with it in his hand. "This is the Innate Gengjin Bodhi Fruit!"

This fruit is the reward for the mission previously issued by the system—the Innate Gengjin Bodhi Fruit.

Cao Meng held the Innate Gengjin Bodhi Fruit in his hand and examined it carefully.

The three words 'innate,' 'metal,' and 'Bodhi' are all simple words.

Especially the word 'innate'; anything with the word 'innate' in it is bound to be good, that's a universally acknowledged fact.

Now that all three words are combined on a single fruit, it's clear how extraordinary this fruit is.

Seeing that Cao Meng lacked discernment, the system logged in and reminded him:

"Host, after consuming and refining the Innate Gengjin Bodhi Fruit, you will obtain the Innate Gengjin Body and improve your aptitude and comprehension!"

After receiving the system notification, I promptly logged off.

Following the system's instructions, Cao Meng swallowed the Innate Gengjin Bodhi Fruit in one gulp, a process that nearly made him the first transmigrator to choke to death.

After consuming the Innate Gengjin Bodhi Fruit, Cao Meng circulated his spiritual power and began refining this treasure.

Three days and three nights passed in the blink of an eye. Cao Meng opened his pupils and exhaled a breath of stale air.

"A naturally occurring Geng Metal body!"

As Cao Meng activated his newly acquired physique, the innate Geng metal energy overflowed and covered his physical body.

Cao Meng's pupils were filled with murderous intent, and at the same time, his physical body transformed into a Geng metal body.

"This is the innate Geng Metal Body? It feels like the physical strength of this body is comparable to a second-tier spiritual weapon!"

Cao Meng was very satisfied with his innate Geng Metal constitution.

Metal represents the somber and killing energy of autumn; metal is inherently associated with killing, which is its nature.

When it is newly born and flourishing, it is Geng metal, which is strong and vigorous, indestructible, and all things that see it wither.

Like a sword or halberd, if it obtains water (壬水) to release its energy, then the metal becomes white and the water becomes clear. This is what is meant by "strong metal, when it gets water, will have its sharpness blunted."

Cao Mengxin's newly acquired innate Geng Metal body can be described as an offensive and lethal body.

When engaging in combat, whether indoors or outdoors, they are invincible!

Besides the physical changes, Cao Meng also felt that he had become smarter.

"Let's test your aptitude and comprehension!"

Cao Meng remembered that the system said that the Innate Geng Metal Bodhi Fruit could improve aptitude and comprehension.

Therefore, Cao Meng had to give it a try. He took out the top-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique that Xia Yulan had given him and began to study it.

After glancing at it a few times, Cao Meng muttered to himself:
"Is this Earth-rank top-grade cultivation technique, 'Sound Killing Sword Art,' fake? I can learn it in a second; it feels even simpler than a Yellow-rank low-grade cultivation technique!"

Cao Meng seriously suspected that Xia Yulan was lying to him. Who could understand a top-grade earth-level cultivation technique at a glance? This was too fake!
"Host, this cultivation technique is not fake; rather, it is because your aptitude and comprehension have been enhanced by the Innate Gengjin Bodhi Fruit!"

The system went online again, explained the situation to Cao Meng, and proved that everything produced by the system was of high quality.

"I can learn a top-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique after just one glance. My comprehension must be terrifying!"

"Jie Jie Jie!"

Upon thinking of this, Cao Meng couldn't help but let out a devilish laugh.

Now that we have the qualifications, all that's missing is the ability.

Cao Meng recalled the 30,000 low-grade spirit stones he had obtained from Xia Yulan, and the 1,600 low-grade spirit stones he had earned from An Yingji.

He decisively opened the attribute page, ready to spend money to upgrade his cultivation!
