I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 142 The Relics of the Huaijiang Witch (23)

"So... this is the birthday present you prepared for me in advance?"

Ignoring Chen Yun's snickering, Li Boyang looked at Li Jingshu with a helpless expression.

At this moment, the other person was holding three or four puppies that hadn't opened their eyes yet, and they were blinking innocently at him.

Beside Li Jingshu, Xiao Gui was struggling to float in mid-air, dragging a giant horn that was half a person's height.

"Stop pretending and put this thing down!"

Li Boyang glared at Xiao Gui beside him; how could he not know what the other party was thinking?

As expected, Li Boyang's words successfully relieved Xiao Gui, who quickly threw the giant horn to the ground.

In fact, this was a strategy Li Jingshu came up with on a whim to play the victim after learning from Xi Yatou that Li Boyang had returned early and was looking for her.

"And you, you took these little troublemakers to Big Yellow's den..."

"When my dad gets back later, we'll build a new little nest for these little guys!"

A single sentence determined the fate of several puppies.

Before Li Jingshu could even feel happy, Li Boyang turned his gaze to her again.

"As for you?"

"I hereby announce that your vacation is over early. Tomorrow you will be going to Feilai Peak with me for training and study."

Upon hearing this, Li Jingshu's face immediately fell.

"But... I just wanted to give you a surprise..."

In this day and age, there is actually no formal concept of a "birthday".

Even customs such as birthday celebrations and longevity celebrations have not yet been established.

However, Li Boyang has always doted on Li Jingshu.

In the past, I would always prepare some gifts for her in advance for her birthday.

Over time, Li Jingshu naturally got used to the concept of "birthday gift".

"I'm not punishing you."

"I've come up with something new, don't you want to learn it?"

Upon hearing Li Boyang's words, Li Jingshu immediately perked up, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

Li Jingshu didn't actually care whether she had to go to Feilai Peak for training and study tomorrow; she just didn't want Li Boyang to hate or punish her.

Since it's not a punishment, then it doesn't matter at all.

"Okay! What will we learn this time?"

"Is it the same hand gesture as last time? I don't think I can learn it?"

Seeing Li Jingshu approaching like a chatterbox, Li Boyang habitually pushed her face away.

"Not hand seals, this time it's talismans..."

"The basic requirements are not that high; you just need to know how to draw proverbs."

Although influenced by Xi Luo, Li Jingshu was not very interested in academic courses.

However, under Li Boyang's strict supervision and guidance...

He had a solid foundation in the art of writing proverbs and talismans, so he wasn't worried at all that the other person wouldn't be able to draw the proverbs.

Yunmeng Mountain, Feilai Peak, amidst bamboo forests.

The black dog's spirit once again left its body and appeared before Xi Luo.

"What are you doing here again?"

As if she had long been accustomed to the presence of the big black dog, Xi Luo suddenly opened her eyes and glared angrily ahead.

At this moment, the big black dog still had not yet cultivated into a Yin spirit; he was still manifesting his primordial spirit in a spiritual way.

"I didn't come here for you this time..."

Without even glancing at Xi Luo, the big black dog stared intently at the papers Li Boyang had created. From the perspective of his primordial spirit, the big black dog could clearly see the faint radiance of primordial energy emanating from those papers.

It seemed to be a variant of vital energy, a special essence of vital energy extracted from bamboo.

It is precisely because of the existence of these vital essences.

Only these papers can exert the effect of five-colored glass, using their own insignificant power to draw upon the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

"That kid seems to have created something amazing again..."

Before Xi Luo could answer, the big black dog suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"Has that kid been working on sorting out the earth's veins again lately?"

"Don't forget that you are just the mountain god of Yunmeng Mountain, and that kid isn't even your priest..."

“Your rash interference with the earth's veins in other regions will attract the wrath of those petty gods.”

With her eyes slightly narrowed, Xi Luo asked in surprise.

Why are you suddenly interested in this?

"Don't worry, the local earth god of Shan'ao Village is dead. The child won't offend any gods by going to sort out the earth's veins."

Turning its head with a half-smile, the big black dog's next words were even more chilling.

"It is precisely because it is a no-owner land that it is more likely to attract the malice of other gods."

"You have lived for over a thousand years, yet you have never realized that gods are beings more evil than humans."

"The power of a god is not directly related to the size of his territory..."

"But there are quite a few wild gods who want to become mountain gods, river gods, and earth gods."

"Furthermore, if the earth's veins were so easy to manipulate, why don't other mountain gods and land gods do the same thing?"

As he spoke, the big black dog looked up at the sky.

"Among these hundred mountains, only the immortal Spring God is qualified to do such a thing."

"Do you think I'm right?"

"The messenger of the immortal spring god—the kingfisher that brings all things back to life?"

As if in response to the big black dog's words, a streak of emerald green light suddenly flashed across the sky.

The next second, the familiar kingfisher landed on a bamboo leaf in the bamboo forest, and then stared at the big black dog with an almost condescending gaze.

"Erosion Lord, none of this has anything to do with you, right?"

The kingfisher's call is clear and melodious, yet it subtly conveys a sense of supreme majesty.

As the messenger of the immortal Spring God, the kingfisher, while not exactly unrestrained in these hundred mountains, rarely encountered anyone who dared to challenge Him.

The big black dog in front of them was the only exception.

At its peak, the big black dog possessed the ability to devour the sky and the sun.

Not to mention the kingfisher in front of him, even the legendary immortal spring god wouldn't dare to be presumptuous in front of him.

"This really has nothing to do with me..."

"But I just happen to like doing things that have nothing to do with me."

A ferocious smile spread across the corners of its mouth, and the big black dog looked at the kingfisher with unusual ferocity.

"Stupid cat, you better remember this: I'm not the only one coveting Wu Yao's relics..."

"Especially now that that kid has shown such amazing potential, countless old fogies throughout the Hundred Mountains are already itching to make a move."

“If one day you feel you can’t protect it anymore, I’m willing to protect Wu Yao’s relics in your place.”

"At the very least, we know each other quite well, don't we?"

Before the words were finished, the black dog's spirit disappeared from their sight, as if it had never existed.

Only the kingfisher and Xiluo remained, staring at each other in a silent exchange.
