Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 409 Zhou Tian Dacheng!

"Uncle Huai, we are back."

"Open the door, I know you are at home."

In Mingyue Lane, Shang Lu stood at the door of his house and knocked loudly.

Sanniang appeared and floated beside him, with a speechless look on her face.

After just two calls, the vermilion door of the house creaked open.

Uncle Huai transformed into a human form, wearing a green robe, and appeared in front of Shang Lu and Sanniang.

When he saw the two of them, Uncle Huai's face, which was wrinkled like tree bark, suddenly broke into a smile.

"Master, mistress, you are back."

Shang Lu couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh" when he heard this.

He discovered that Uncle Huai was actually speaking human language this time, instead of simulating a strange human voice by rubbing the branches together as before.

This made Shang Lu unable to help but look at Uncle Huai carefully.

After a look, I found something new:
Although Uncle Huai's face was wrinkled, his expression was richer and more lively.

These changes meant that Uncle Huai’s cultivation had improved significantly during the days they were away.

"That's good, Uncle Huai. You haven't fallen behind in your cultivation during the time we were away from home.

But you still have to work harder. My current cultivation level is higher than yours."

Uncle Huai's current cultivation level is almost at the minor stage of Qi Refining, and Shang Lu is much stronger than him.

But Uncle Huai was very happy: "Master is very talented, and my wooden head is far from being able to compare with him."

Shang Lu laughed in silence: "Uncle Huai, it seems that not only has your cultivation improved, but your tongue has also become more eloquent, and you have even learned how to flatter."

"I speak from the bottom of my heart."

Uncle Huai looked serious and leaned over to look behind Shang Lu, but saw nothing.

He couldn't help but ask, "Where is Heiyun? Did he make a mistake on the road and was betrayed by you, my master?"

"It stayed in the secret realm of Yunhua Mountain and will not come back for some time."

As he spoke, Shang Lu stepped over the threshold, walked around the screen wall, and entered the courtyard.

When he entered the yard, Shang Lu was stunned.

Because he saw that in his own yard, seven or eight flower and grass monsters with legs appeared and were running around busily.

There was a grass monster lying on the ground, using its head and body as a broom to clean, and it swept quite cleanly.

There is a flower fairy in the bedroom, carrying a few big flowers everywhere to keep the fragrance of the flowers, so that there is a fragrance even if no one lives in the bedroom.

There were also several half-human-high bush monsters, holding axes in branches and chopping wood in the yard.

I don’t know if this behavior is considered self-mutilation for them?
There were also a few vine-like grass monsters, driving away rats and birds.

Shang Lu took a closer look and discovered that the legs of these flower and grass monsters were formed by the entanglement of their roots, and were not real legs.

However, they can drill out of the soil and use their roots as legs to work. It is obvious that they are no longer ordinary flowers and plants, but real monsters.

Even though they are just little demons whose spiritual orifices have not been opened, and they have no abilities or skills, and they do not know any magic, any ordinary person can deal with them, but they are still demons, and they have the opportunity to practice and change their fate.

"How come my home has become a den of demons?"

Shang Lu turned his head in surprise and looked at Uncle Huai.

In other words, there were only a group of flower and plant goblins in the house, and no female ghosts.

Otherwise, Shang Lu would have to suspect whether Uncle Huai had a bandit nickname called "Laolao" in the underworld?

Although Uncle Huai can speak human language now, since Shang Lu and Sanniang left, there is no one at home to talk to him and he lacks practice, so his speech is not fluent.

Hearing Shang Lu's question, Uncle Huai gestured and spoke, and after some stumbling, he finally explained the matter clearly.

Previously, Shang Lu bought the "Three Spirits True Body" technique from Bai Lingxu, and also bought prescriptions that could help plants to practice. He gave all of these to Uncle Huai, asking him to practice and prepare medicines on his own.

Afterwards, he went to the inner mountains to attend some courses taught by agricultural witches, and brought back the knowledge on cultivating spiritual plants that he had memorized and taught it to Uncle Huai.

Shang Lu’s idea was to let Uncle Huai make use of the vacant space in the house to see if he could grow some magical herbs.

If it works, not only can you save money, but you may also be able to exchange it for contribution points in the Witch Academy.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Huai is extremely talented in this area.

Not only did he successfully cultivate spiritual medicines, he also directly raised some of them into monsters.

With these flower and grass fairies, Uncle Huai is finally no longer a housekeeper without a job.

Under his arrangement, these flower and grass fairies became servants in the mansion... no, they were hired monsters.

"I really didn't expect that Uncle Huai, you are also talented in teaching people... um, teaching monsters." Shang Lu exclaimed in amazement.

His house has been registered with the county government and the Witch Academy, and Uncle Huai, the "house demon", has also been registered.

Therefore, even if there were a group of flower and grass goblins in his house, there were no officials or witch officers to investigate.

It is perfectly normal for a wizard to keep some monsters in his home.

As long as these demons obey the law, no one will cause trouble.

Although these flower and grass monsters in Shang Lu's family have low IQs, they are quite sensible under the training of Uncle Huai.

Immediately, a bush demon staggered over and wanted to help Shang Lu carry his luggage.

Shang Lu found it interesting, so he took off his bag and gave it to the bush monster.

However, the bag was too heavy and the bush monster was pinned to the ground.

Seeing this, the surrounding flower and grass monsters hurried over to help. Several of them worked together, pulling and tugging, but they still could not move the bag.

"I'll do it myself."

Shang Lu shook his head and laughed. The strength of these flower and grass monsters was too weak and they could only do light work.

He reached out, picked up the bag, and brought it into the house.

The flower and grass goblins that came to help were stubborn and refused to let go, so Shang Lu carried them into the house together.

Although they did not help, after Shang Lu put down his bag, several flower and grass fairies lifted up leaves and branches and wiped the flower corollas, grass tips and other places like humans.

It's like wiping sweat.

This caused Shang Lu to laugh and scold: "Did you put in any effort? You still have the nerve to wipe your sweat?"

But you have to say, having more flowers and plants in the house really adds a lot of vitality.

I just wonder if the medicinal properties of these herbs that have become monsters will be enhanced?

"Next time you need medicine, you can try these to see how effective they are."

Shang Lu muttered to himself.

Of course, we don’t want to kill them to make medicine, as that would be a waste. Just giving them a “haircut” or “nailscut” would be enough.

Compared to Shanglu, Sanniang seems to be more accustomed to the flower and grass monsters appearing in the mansion.

Moreover, the flower and grass demons were particularly close to Sanniang. When Shang Lu put away his luggage and walked out of the main hall, he found that Sanniang was already in the kitchen, instructing the flower and grass demons to boil water for him to take a bath.

During this period of time, when traveling, I either slept in the wilderness or found an abandoned house or temple to live in. Even after returning to Baiyi County, I stayed in an inn, where it was inconvenient to take a shower.

Although Sanniang was by his side, using the cold wind to help clean his body so that the Shanglu would not go bad, he still needed to take a good hot bath to get rid of the dust on his body.

After all, I'm back home.

Shang Lu stood at the kitchen door, watching Sanniang and the flower and grass demons busying around inside, and couldn't help but smile happily on his face.

He was happy, but the flower and grass fairies in the kitchen were not necessarily happy.

These guys have just become monsters and their brains aren't working very well.

No, it should be said that they have no brains at all.

They are rash and impetuous in doing things, and each one is more aggressive than the other.

When people were lighting a fire and adding wood, a flower demon actually crawled into the stove and almost burned itself as firewood.

Fortunately, Sanniang reacted quickly, waved her hand and released a gust of cold wind, which pulled it out, and then used the cold wind to extinguish the fire on its body, thus allowing it to escape the disaster.

But the other flower and grass fairies nearby, seeing their companion on fire, out of curiosity or what, actually rushed into the stove, wanting to see what was inside and how their companion caught fire.

Then Uncle Huai used locust branches to beat them with a "crackling" sound, which made Shang Lu laugh uncontrollably.

After waiting for a while, the bath water was ready and Shang Lu took off all his clothes in the yard.

This time, not only did Sanniang help him rub his back, but the flower and grass fairies also joined in the fun, allowing Shang Lu to experience the feeling of being a master.

It's just a pity that the ones joining in the fun are all flower and plant monsters that haven't transformed into human form. If they were replaced by female ghosts or fox spirits, it would be more like a landlord who bullies men and women.

After taking a bath, Sanniang prepared dinner.

It’s still python meat.

This meat carries spiritual energy and is helpful for spiritual practice. The most important thing is the quantity of it.

Although Sanniang used her Yin energy to freeze them so that they would not deteriorate even after years, the spiritual energy in the meat could not be locked and would gradually dissipate with the passage of time.

So you still have to eat it quickly.

Fortunately, the taste of the bassoon meat is good, and Sanniang’s cooking skills are very high. Even if Shanglu eats it every day, he will not get tired of it.

Even after eating Basque snake meat for so many days, Shang Lu still couldn't develop the Basque snake's magical powers. This made Shang Lu doubt whether Senior Chu Yun's recipe was reliable.
I ate the Basque snake meat today, but still failed to gain any supernatural powers.

Shang Lu has become accustomed to such situations and began today's training step by step.

Because he had already practiced the Art of Transmitting Flowers and Grafting Trees twice in the Witch Academy and had intercepted several strands of divine power, Shang Lu did not practice the Art of Transmitting Flowers and Grafting Trees this time.

Instead, he used the power of dragon and tiger, combined with the secrets of the alchemy classics, to assist the five internal organs, speeding up the refining of the intercepted divine power and transforming them into his own strength.

While practicing, Shang Lu took out the three beads burned out of the body of the three-headed monster baby.

Place them respectively at three locations: the center of the eyebrows, the chest, and the lower abdomen.

They correspond to the upper, middle and lower Dantian respectively, and are supported by the essence and Qi to ensure that they will not fall.

On the way back from Guling County, Shang Lu had been studying the uses of these three beads.

Finally, it was discovered that the power contained in these three beads was in line with the sun, moon and stars, and could be used to strengthen the upper, middle and lower Dantians, thereby increasing the amount of essence and energy and the power of the cyclone.

When Shang Lu began to practice, the flower and grass monsters in the yard, after receiving Uncle Huai's instructions, all became more cautious.

Sanniang washed the clothes Shanglu had worn on the journey, and repaired the damaged protective gear.

Shang Lu practiced for two hours this time.

After finishing his training, he thoroughly refined and absorbed the divine power he had intercepted today.

With the blessing of divine power and the strength drawn from the three beads of sun, moon and star, Shanglu's internal organs were further strengthened.

This strengthening is reflected in the five internal organs, making the temples more refined and more imposing.

At the same time, the statues of the five internal organs enshrined in the temple became more and more lifelike, as if they were real people, and even began to have a hint of divinity and divine power.

The strengthening of the five internal organs has greatly improved Shanglu's cultivation results.

Not only does the cyclone in the lower dantian become stronger, but the second cyclone in the middle dantian is also truly formed and can play a role and be used in actual combat.

Practicing the second cyclone also means that Shang Lu’s cultivation has officially entered the realm of Zhoutian Dacheng.

Once the cyclone in the upper dantian is developed, you will be able to reach the perfection of the Zhoutian cycle.

And when the upper, middle and lower cyclones are completely formed and complement each other, it is time to prepare for a breakthrough into the Tongtian realm.

However, without the help of Sibu Xiang, it would not be an easy task for Shang Lu to break through to the Tongtian realm.

After all, Feng Boyuan, as the nephew of the chief priest of the Witch Academy, was able to obtain the materials to break through the Tongtian Realm thanks to his contribution in developing the secret realm of Yunhua Mountain.

"I wonder if the dragon pearl I swallowed before can play a role at that time?"

"Or maybe I can wait until I'm able to break through, then find a way to go to the Yunhua Mountain Secret Realm and try my luck with the Sibu Xiang?"

Shang Lu, who had finished his training, checked the condition of his body while making plans for the future.

Sanniang prepared a cold bath at this time.

Shang Lu has been away from home for some time and has not had the chance to take a cold bath again.

Seeing the cold bath prepared by Sanniang, he was stunned. He felt that the water in the bathtub seemed to be colder than before?
Is it because my cultivation level has improved that Han Yu has also been upgraded?
Shang Lu couldn't help but marvel at it. He really didn't expect that Han Yu could be upgraded.

But he did not rush to take a cold bath, but took out the soul altar and began to offer sacrifices to the gods.

It is already past midnight, which is a good time to offer sacrifices to the gods.

Xiang Yu had reminded him to offer sacrifices to the gods properly. This was based on experience, so he had to do it.

Sanniang is indeed a good wife. When she saw Shang Lu take out the soul sacrificial altar, she immediately ordered the flower and grass demons to drag out a pig's head from the kitchen as a sacrifice.

Although the three animals cannot be gathered together, with a pig's head and some incense, it will not be impolite.

A magic circle had already been set up in Shang Lu's house, and with the addition of a soul-sacrificing altar, there was no need to worry about affecting the surrounding neighbors.

Moreover, the influence of gods on people is that the higher the level of cultivation, the deeper the influence.

Most of the people living in Mingyue Lane are ordinary people. They are unaware of the arrival of the gods, and even if there is an impact, it is very small.

When using the soul altar to offer sacrifices to the gods, Shang Lu was still a little nervous, fearing that the two gods would have objections to him intercepting divine power.

However, Tubo and the god with a pig body, eight legs and a snake tail took the incense very happily. Although the pig head looked unchanged, Shang Lu could feel that the essence inside it was taken away along with the incense.

The two gods did not punish him, which showed that they either did not notice or did not care.

"If that's the case, I'll have to intercept them more often in the future. Anyway, since you two have accepted the incense, it's reasonable for you to give me some divine power."

Shang Lu just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly discovered something strange.

Although Tu Bo's spiritual consciousness descended on the soul-sacrificing altar, it left immediately after collecting the incense and offerings.

Seems very hurried.

What's going on? Is Tu Bo angry with me?

Shang Lu suddenly became nervous.
