My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 239 Three Immortals
Zhou Lu never expected that while he was just looking for the legendary spirit beast, he actually encountered the aura related to Benben's mother.

However, in a sense, Jiunan Zhulong is indeed a legendary spiritual beast.

Zhou Lu ordered the Wind Eagle to follow Benben's breath and fly towards the Shuque Valley.

When approaching the sky above Shuque Valley, Zhou Lu clearly felt something was wrong.

The Wind Eagle even felt some kind of terrifying aura and began to tremble uncontrollably.

If the spirit pet continues to fly in this state, it is very likely to crash.

Zhou Lu ordered the Wind Eagle to land without hesitation.

Let the Wind Eagle wait on guard in the surrounding area for the time being, and Zhou Lu continued to chase Benben's breath with Hua Huo.

"It tastes delicious." When they were about to enter the Rat Sparrow Valley, Hua Huo said to Zhou Lu in a pieced-together voice.

Zhou Lu immediately became alert.

The delicious taste that Xiaocaocao mentioned generally has only one possibility.

Is there an immortal in the Shuque Valley?
"Hanahuo, put the division first." Zhou Lu said to Huahuo.

It is better not to advance rashly when you are unclear about the enemy or yourself.

Anyway, there is the guarantee of [Recycling], so Benben’s life is not threatened for the time being.

Considering that potential enemies might be highly alert, Hanabi did not release the flying branches casually, but observed the surroundings.

It selected a common insect in the canyon, and then let the flying plants simulate the appearance of this insect, and then spread these plants out.

The flying branches flapped their leaves that simulated insect wings along with the breeze blowing into the canyon and flew towards the direction where Benben was.

Soon, Hanabi observed several unusual humans in the canyon through the flying ramets.

There were three people in total, two of whom were besieging a lone person.

The fight between the three was very fierce, and the airflow caused by the collision of power made it difficult for the branches to get close.

When they were fighting, there were no signs of summoning spirit pets, which was enough to explain their identities.

Fortunately, the Leaf Phonograph was greatly strengthened after Fireworks evolved.

Even though the power of the ramet alone was not enough to get close to the three people who were fighting, Hanabi was able to transmit the conversation between them intermittently through the leaf phonograph.

"Why betray..."

“We just want to eat…”

"Have you forgotten what your teacher taught you?"

"The teacher is dead!"

Zhou Lu was confused by what he heard, but he was certain that this was definitely an internal conflict within a certain immortal organization.

He activated his empathy and began to observe the strength of the three people through flying branches.

Zhou Lu was not clear about the criteria for judging the strength of immortals, so he could only judge their strength by comparing them with Hua Huo.

Judging from the results, these guys seem to be no match for Hanabi at all.

Catch him and torture him.

Be timid when you should be timid, and be reckless when you should be reckless.

Otherwise, I let Huahuo work so hard to accumulate such strength, it can't be just for her to do laundry and cook for me, right?

Hua Huo received Zhou Lu's order and immediately began to execute it.

With the lifting of restrictions on flying ramets, these ramets grew explosively in a short period of time due to crazy growth.

They stretch out their vines and begin to weave and intertwine with the branch root system as the core.

This is Hanabi using the skill of [Vine Armor] to give these branches more powerful strength.

boom!
boom!
boom!
There was no need for empathy. Zhou Lu could feel the loud noises coming from the Mouse Bird Valley not far away just from where he was.

The flying branches, which were originally only the size of insects, turned into giant vines in just a few minutes due to the crazy growth.

Some of the ones were relatively large, and Zhou Lu could even vaguely see their heads from this distance and angle.

Zhou Lu glanced at Hua Huo who was concentrating on controlling the vine giant to fight.

It seems that Xiao Caocao still has some energy left.

It seems that letting it use divisions to monitor various information in the environment on a daily basis has indeed trained Fireworks's fine control ability.

It's just this fighting style...

Why do I feel like you are the Beast Tamer, Hanabi!

The three men who were fighting were also horrified when they saw the sudden appearance of the vine giant.

Just as they were asking about the newcomers' intentions, these vine giants rushed over without any explanation.

These vines woven by Hanabi inherited almost all of Hanabi's skills, the only flaw was probably the difference in attributes.

There is no doubt that a single vine giant would not be a match for any immortal.

It’s a pity that when Hanabi raised her hand, she summoned dozens of vine giants.

This is because Fireworks controlled the number for precise control. Otherwise, if it really got angry, it could create nearly a hundred similar vine giants.

The two men who were besieging him were obviously stronger.

Faced with the sudden powerful enemy, the three of them turned to fight on their own.

The immortal was worthy of being an immortal. In the blink of an eye, he chopped down most of the vine giants.

Unfortunately, what they were facing were an almost endless supply of vine giants.

Moreover, they had insufficient experience in dealing with sneak attacks, and one of them was dazed for a moment and was directly entangled and tied up by the vines of the vine giant.

Then he fell into an endless cycle of poison and dizziness until he was completely controlled by Hanabi.

Suddenly one of the fighters was lost, and the originally evenly matched battle suddenly became one-sided.

However, it must be admitted that the pressure of facing three immortals at the same time is still enormous.

Hanabi's spirit was obviously becoming exhausted from overusing her skills.

In this state, it is basically impossible for it to be distracted, and naturally it does not have too much energy to look for something in the Yueshan Ding on its tail to restore its strength.

Fortunately, Zhou Lu had the foresight to put some in his backpack.

He rummaged through his backpack and pulled out a small bottle.

In the bottle, a beautiful mushroom flower is blooming.

Fairy charm chicken mushroom.

This should be one of the rarest types of mushrooms in Wu Xiaoqing's hands.

It is basically impossible for Xianyun Chicken Mushroom to exist under normal circumstances, and it can only be sealed in a sealed bottle filled with nitrogen.

The method of use is also very simple, just shake the bottle vigorously until the mushrooms are completely crushed.

Smash the rubber ball at the mouth of the bottle to inject the liquid into the bottle.

This mixed liquid will completely dissolve the mushroom powder in the bottle, and it is then ready for use.

Xianyun Chicken Mushroom can instantly restore the energy and physical strength of spiritual pets to their peak state with almost no side effects.

The only side effect is that if it is used multiple times in a short period of time, the effect will gradually be reduced.

Zhou Lu dissolved the Xianyun chicken mushroom according to the instructions without hesitation and poured it onto the roots of Huo Huo, which is the part of Huo Huo that absorbs the fastest.

The effect of the Xianyun Chicken Mushroom was indeed significant, and Huahuo regained her spirits instantly.

Gradually, the sounds of fighting in the canyon faded away.

After confirming with Hua Huo that all three immortals had been under control, Zhou Lu carefully walked into the Shuque Valley.

At this time, the Shuque Valley has changed beyond all recognition.

The fierce battle was like a nuclear bomb explosion, completely destroying everything in the canyon. The ground was covered with gravel powder and vine giants that had been killed.

Zhou Lu made a rough estimate and found that in order to capture these three immortals, Huo Huo actually mobilized hundreds of vine giants.

While admiring the terrifying fighting power displayed by Huo Huo, Zhou Lu couldn't help but sigh that this immortal was too damn powerful.

"who are you……"

Just then, a hoarse voice was heard.

Zhou Lu looked up and saw three vine giants standing there.

At this moment, the three immortals were being firmly fixed in front of the vine giant in a "big" posture.

Their limbs were wrapped in layers of vines, with only their forequarters and faces exposed.

But this posture...why is it so subtle?

I always feel like I've seen it in those tentacle-y evil comics.

Zhou Lu glanced at Huo Huo. Could it be that this little girl had seen something unhealthy again?

"I'm just a beastmaster passing by." Zhou Lu introduced himself elegantly.

"Beast Tamer... You can actually control so many pets in the secret realm?" The other party was obviously surprised.

Zhou Lu laughed and didn't explain anything to the other party. He just looked at them curiously: "Compared to this, I am actually more curious about your existence."

"Hmph, I advise you not to know."

Zhou Lu shrugged his shoulders: "I didn't intend to ask you that."

As he said this, he waved to Hanabi.

Hanabi immediately understood and took out a box from her tail.

After opening the box, a black mushroom appeared in front of Zhou Lu.

Black inscription mushroom.

Ever since he used it last time, Zhou Lu only wanted to give it a good review.

So after returning, he immediately used Ye Qingyu's connections and used the black inscription mushroom to pull a few temporary skills from the Death Nightmare.

But I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

With the blessing of the Death Nightmare skill, Zhou Lu naturally didn't need to waste any more words to ask the other party.

When the black inscription mushroom was released and the skill was activated, the besieged man's face changed slightly: "Death Nightmare!"

Zhou Lu's heart moved.

Ordinary people cannot recognize the skills of Death Nightmare at a glance.

The terrifying thing about the Death Nightmare's dream-entering skill is that even if you know its skill, or even if you are familiar with the characteristics of this skill, you still cannot take any precautions against it.

Zhou Lu closed his eyes, and the information of the three people in front of him came to him through his dream like a tide.

They come from an organization called the Ascension Sect.

This organization was born out of an experiment initiated by the director of the Invalides to extend human life.

The leader was the son of the then director of the Invalides.

When Zhou Lu read this information, he was also slightly stunned.

He had never imagined that the three immortals in front of him had such backgrounds.

The man being besieged is named Qin Wei, and he was the adopted child of Qi Linfeng, the former president of the Veterans’ Home.

Having lived in the Invalides since he was a child, he was indeed very familiar with the Nightmare of Death, so he recognized the skills of the Nightmare of Death at a glance.

The two men who besieged him were also experimenters in the experimental plan that year.

Zhou Lu originally thought that the experiment that year led to the emergence of subsequent immortals.

But the three people in front of him told Zhou Lu the truth that his father’s teacher had actually created an immortal.

However, it stands to reason that humans who have become beastmasters cannot evolve into immortals.

Did Qi Linfeng intend to use his children to conduct an experiment on immortalization from the beginning? Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why they could evolve into immortals through normal processes.

Zhou Lu also noticed that the other two people actually had no connection with Qi Linfeng, and their experiences in their early years were those of ordinary people who were perfectly normal.

It’s a pity that humans’ experiences before the age of three cannot be traced, even in dreams, so Zhou Lu couldn’t be sure whether they had been vaccinated with the potion to evolve into beastmasters.

The reason these three people came this time was actually because the organization's leader Qi Lin had reached the level of breaking through to the fifth level of Mahayana and needed to collect materials for the breakthrough.

After their investigation, they found that the so-called legendary spirit beast that appeared in this dream was actually the small spirit cloud that was necessary for evolving into a fifth-level immortal.

Little Spirit Clouds are a very special kind of spiritual beast. They have a variety of shapes and no fixed form. When necessary, they can even transform themselves into clouds and hide away so that no one can find them.

The immortals in the Age of Immortals were not as open-minded as the sages in the Age of Beast Taming. In order to prevent the emergence of new competitors, they often firmly controlled the materials necessary for evolution.

Those great Mahayana masters naturally do not want a new Mahayana to emerge.

So they joined forces to suppress the number of Xiao Lingyun.

It is precisely for this reason that the number of Little Spirit Clouds has been scarce since the Age of Immortals. Even in the Age of Beast Taming, when the Little Spirit Clouds were no longer persecuted, their number never increased.

An immortal who is about to break through to the fifth level.

When Zhou Lu got the news, his heart sank.

Even this so-called Shengling Sect, adhering to Qi Linfeng's dying wish, tried their best to prevent the immortals from returning to human society again, and for this they even massacred the entire Gu family.

But precisely because of their brutal methods, Zhou Lu began to doubt whether this so-called Shengling Sect had anything to do with his father's death.

Originally, their search for Xiao Lingyun was going smoothly.

But when entering the Rat Sparrow Valley, Qin Wei's two teammates suddenly attacked him.

As for the reason for the sneak attack, they went to steal food without telling their leader Qi Lin.

Cheating doesn't seem to be a serious word.

But you have to know that the food of immortals is...

Zhou Lu immediately understood that the person he met in Linzhou was probably one of this group of people.

At that time, they just wanted to wipe out the entire Song family as a treat.

After reading the memories of these three immortals, Zhou Lu was immediately glad that he had asked Hua Huo to quickly disable the [Immortal] skill.

For immortals, eating is an instinct that cannot be suppressed at all.

Back then, Qi Linfeng was bitten to death by Qi Lin when he was trying to suppress his son's uncontrollable desire to eat.

After reading the memories of these three people, Zhou Lu did not have any good impression of either of them.

Although Qin Wei did not steal food, he still ate under the arrangement of the leader Qi Lin.

And what they eat...

He is a demon cultivator from Linzhou.

The stronger the demon cultivator, the more they can satisfy their desires.

And how did those immortals who they defined as demon cultivators cultivate and become stronger?

They actually know.

But they choose to ignore it in their hearts.

Instead, they put on a moral high hat of eliminating harm for the people.

As if this was the case, they could eat with peace of mind.

"Eat it." Zhou Lu said to Hua Huo who was standing beside him, "Eat it all. Let's go find Ben Ben."
