The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 235 Five Thunder Pearls Crimson Serpent Demon
However, Li Jingxiao imagined having a cute and adorable little child calling him "Dad" in the future.

And then there were those who clung to him wanting a hug, and he couldn't help but show a kind smile on his face.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "My wife, don't worry. I've checked for you, and there's nothing wrong with either of us."

Perhaps it's just that the time hasn't come yet that we don't have children.

Who knows, maybe you'll have three or five in your lifetime, and then you'll have your headaches.

Qin Keqing spat at Li Jingxiao and murmured expectantly, "Don't mention three or five, even if it's seven or eight, I would be willing."

Li Jingxiao couldn't help but hug the beautiful woman in his arms tighter, whispering, "It will happen."

Qin Keqing nodded, feeling both hopeful and relieved.

Her husband wasn't in a hurry, which really reduced her stress.

The two chatted quietly for a while before Qin Keqing unknowingly fell asleep.

Only then did Li Jingxiao focus his attention on the game.

Two days ago, Li Jingxiao leveled up to level 70, and that very night he actually went into the new level 70 map to grind monsters.

The mobs are as easy to kill as ever; using the Sword Control Technique to clear them out is as simple as chopping vegetables.

But this time, the BOSS that appeared was actually the Black Bear Spirit from Black Wind Mountain and Black Wind Cave.

This guy seems pretty weak in the TV series, especially when Li Jingxiao is directing his game character to fight this black bear.

They immediately realized that this guy was ridiculously strong.

Whether it's fire, lightning, or a flurry of flying swords from a sword-wielding technique, the damage is minimal.

The black-tasseled spear in his hand was incredibly powerful and formidable.

Moreover, when this guy's health drops to a certain level, he'll make excuses like he's hungry or thirsty.

They rushed into the Black Wind Cave without a care in the world.

After a big meal, my health was fully restored when I came out.

So much so that Li Jingxiao fought him for several days but still couldn't defeat the BOSS.

Li Jingxiao knew that the key to getting through this was how to prevent the black bear from returning to Black Wind Cave.

After clearing out all the monsters, we arrived outside the Black Wind Cave. A gust of black wind swept by, and the black bear came up with a black-tasseled spear and started attacking.

Li Jingxiao quickly transformed into a three-headed, six-armed being.

He wielded a jet-black silver spear, a demon-subduing mace, a seven-star sword, a five-fire seven-bird fan, and a moon-gold wheel.

As they approached, the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan fanned itself a few times.

Instantly, five colorless flames shot straight towards the black bear.

The black bear roared furiously as it burned, bracing itself against the five-colored flames as it charged forward and thrust its spear forward.

Li Jingxiao knew that this black bear was surprisingly strong.

The method of deflecting force using Tai Chi sword involves replacing the long sword with a spear.

The jet-black silver spear deflected the large spear, while the Demon-Subduing Mace and the Seven-Star Sword slashed down.

The black bear spirit casually raised his gun to parry, easily deflecting the attacks from both weapons.

Li Jingxiao raised his spear and swept it horizontally, attacking the Black Bear Demon's lower body.

This black bear's martial arts skills were truly remarkable; when he wielded his spear, water couldn't penetrate it and needles couldn't pierce it.

Fortunately, it wasn't the real Black Bear Spirit from Journey to the West, so it was able to defend against Li Jingxiao's weapon.

But they couldn't stop Li Jingxiao from having three heads and six arms, with two of his three heads spewing flames and thunder.

The third head was chanting incantations from time to time, and a bolt of divine lightning struck the black bear, causing it to crackle with electricity.

After fighting for a full forty minutes, Li Jingxiao had taken several blood-replenishing pills.

The black bear spirit's health was already down to one-third.

Just like a few days ago, the bear rammed Li Jingxiao with a shot, muttering, "Hungry, hungry."

"Let's call it a day and wait until I've had my meal before we duel again."

Li Jingxiao knew at a glance that the bear was going to hide back in Black Wind Cave, so he quickly shouted "Freeze!"

After immobilizing the black bear, they didn't attack it as they had yesterday.

Instead, he leaped to block the entrance to the Black Wind Cave, his six hands constantly drawing golden talismans.

In just a moment, he drew 30 talismans out of thin air.

Using the supernatural power of the Tongtian Talisman, he actually compressed 30 Golden Light Mantras into three.

He slapped it on his head, and three golden halos rose up, blocking the Black Wind Cave at the same time.

The blue defensive circle of the Sun Wheel also appeared.

Li Jingxiao then picked up his weapon and bravely withstood the Black Bear Demon's fierce and relentless attacks, refusing to retreat.

Fortunately, the immobilization spell could interrupt the bear's attacks from time to time.

The Binding Immortal Rope then specifically bound his feet, and after withstanding it for about three minutes, the Black Bear Demon's attack finally weakened.

Li Jingxiao was overjoyed and quickly ate two more red and blue pills, then shouted "Freeze!" at the black bear spirit.

His body crackled with lightning as he wielded his spear, demon-subduing mace, and seven-star sword, striking the black bear demon in turn.

Every now and then, a bolt of divine lightning would fall from the sky, finally stopping the black bear demon before it could break the three golden light spells.

He pierced the black bear demon's head with a single spear thrust.

With a loud 'bang,' the ground was filled with precious light.

Ignoring the level 70 equipment for now, Li Jingxiao immediately noticed five beads flashing with lightning.

With a wave of his hand, he used the "Capturing Dragon and Controlling Crane" martial art, and five fist-sized thunder beads flew into his hand automatically.

The Five Directions Five Thunder Pearls are a divine treasure born from the combined power of the five thunders: wind, fire, mountain, water, and earth.

Lightning attack +40.

风雷+20、火雷+20、山雷+20、水雷+20、土雷+20。

Li Jingxiao was overjoyed, as this thing was far more powerful than the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan.

Without a second thought, he took out the spirit stone.

I leveled up all the way to level five.

+5 Five Directions Thunder Beads, Thunder Attack +51.

风雷+31、火雷+31、山雷+31、水雷+31、土雷+31。

After being equipped, five lightning orbs of five colors—blue, red, black, green, and yellow—spun around Li Jingxiao's body, flashing with lightning.

As long as Li Jingxiao has a thought, the Five Thunder Pearls will automatically emit five kinds of thunder to attack the enemy.

With a wave of his hand, he collected all the other items that had been dropped into his inventory.

We arrived at the level 60 map.

After leaving the city, the Five Thunder Pearls along the way emitted thunder from time to time, making the approaching monsters crackle with a 'squeak' sound.

Not only is monster hunting easier, but it also doesn't require Li Jingxiao to control it; it can actively attack the monsters.

They arrived at the mountain peak where Special Envoy, General Yin, and Lord Xiongshan were located.

This time, Li Jingxiao flew directly into the air, continuously releasing five types of lightning towards the three BOSSes, Niu, Hu, and Xiong, hundreds of meters below with the Five Thunder Pearls.

Before long, Li Jingxiao discovered that the wind and thunder were causing even greater damage to the old ox.

Water Thunder Bear Mountain Lord.

General Turekyin.

And the damage from a mountain mine is basically the same no matter who it hits.

While dodging the boulders thrown by Xiong Shanjun in mid-air, Li Jingxiao adjusted the order of his attacks.

As for General Yin's sonic attack, Li Jingxiao directly countered with poison, flying in the air and playing the Azure Sea Tide Melody on the Jade Flute of the Azure Wave Pool.

Not only can it neutralize General Yin's sonic attack, but the Jade Flute's built-in ability to confuse and put to sleep can also confuse and put the three bosses to sleep.

In just half an hour, all three bosses were killed.

A series of loud explosions followed with a 'bang'.

Li Jingxiao spotted a book at a glance, picked it up and saw that it was actually the "Continuation of the Head" technique.

The head is cut off, but the person doesn't die, and it can be easily reattached.

It is indeed very useful.

The reason it's considered useless is because Li Jingxiao simply doesn't want to test whether the spell works. But since it's been revealed, of course he has to learn it.

After pondering for a moment, Li Jingxiao suddenly grasped his head with both hands and gently lifted it up.

His head had actually come off his neck, but not a drop of blood flowed from either his neck or head.

Li Jingxiao held his head to his chest, which had no effect on his health or life.

Even with their heads dangling in mid-air and their bodies flying more than ten meters away, there were no side effects.

Li Jingxiao couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After playing for a while, the head flew back to the body on its own and returned to normal.

Pick up the other dropped equipment and a level 5 spirit stone.

After thinking about it, I decided to use it to upgrade the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan.

+5 Five Fires Seven Birds Fan Flame Attack +31.

附带空中火+21、石中火+21、木中火+21、三昧火+21、人间火+21。

After that, Li Jingxiao cleared out all the monsters on the other maps.

Only then did he comfortably hold Qin Keqing and close his eyes to sleep.

He is also practicing the Longevity Technique - Grandmaster (7240/4).

Before they knew it, dawn broke. As usual, they practiced martial arts together in the morning with Yuan Chun, Bao Qin, the You sisters, the Jing Xi sisters, and Qin Zhong.

After breakfast, I was just about to fly over to Shangyu, Zhejiang.

Then, the four Yellow Turban warriors who had gone to investigate Lingyan Mountain the day before yesterday descended from the sky.

He bowed respectfully and said, "Reporting to the True Immortal, the four of us have confirmed that a caravan has indeed disappeared in Lingyan Mountain."

However, Xiao Shen and his team have discovered in the past few days that this matter is related to salt merchants in Jinling and Yangzhou.

Li Jingxiao became interested after hearing this and quickly gestured for the Yellow Turban Warrior to continue.

The Yellow Turban Warrior hurriedly recounted everything that he and his three companions had failed to uncover.

It turns out that salt merchants in Nanjing and Yangzhou have noticed a significant increase in smuggled salt in Luzhou and Chuzhou over the past six months.

They guessed that smuggled salt dealers had stolen their business.

These salt smugglers often traveled along the mountain paths of Lingyan Mountain to sell their smuggled salt to Chuzhou, and they even gathered some river bandits to come ashore.

They even hired a heretical sorcerer to perform the spell.

While pretending to be evil and committing wicked acts, they also plundered smuggled salt.

The bandits, having gone this far, decided to rob other merchant caravans as well, since they were all after money anyway.

Then they blamed it on demons.

Four Yellow Turban warriors could easily capture this group of river bandits, but these river bandits were not demons, so it was really not appropriate for the Yellow Turban warriors to get involved in such matters.

It took several days to find out the truth before I could return and report to Li Jingxiao.

Li Jingxiao smiled and shook his head, deciding to ignore it.

Anyway, neither salt merchants nor private salt dealers are good people.

Today some salt smugglers are killed, and before long, others will take the risk for profit.

As long as there is market demand, illegal salt production can never be eradicated.

Even the salt merchants themselves were the biggest smugglers of salt.

As for the evil sect, they only target salt smugglers and not ordinary people, so Li Jingxiao doesn't plan to arrest them in such a hurry for the time being.

When we go boating on the lake this afternoon, I'll tell Xue Pan and see what the merchants in Jinling think.

If the benefits are sufficient, catching that heretic will be a piece of cake.

Even after Li Jingxiao opened his third eye, it didn't take much effort. With the help of the Yellow Turban Warrior, he discovered that the Taoist was still hiding in a cave on Lingyan Mountain.

The four Yellow Turban Warriors were instructed to continue keeping an eye on the Taoist priest.

Li Jingxiao went out and found a steamed bun shop, where he bought five baskets of steamed buns, totaling over a hundred buns.

They then went to three more stores and bought five baskets of steamed buns each time.

Then he flew to Maoshan.

Once inside the Demon-Sealing Tower, I took out a strong liquor and two hundred steamed buns from my inventory.

The remaining 800 are temporarily stored in the inventory and have not been taken out.

When Kang saw that the steamed buns were still steaming, his face lit up with joy.

The enormous figure twisted a few times and transformed into a middle-aged man of about thirty.

He grabbed a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.

While eating, he hummed a few times.

After eating more than a dozen, he picked up the wine jar and poured wine into his mouth.

In just five or six minutes, this guy devoured two hundred fist-sized steamed buns and a jar of strong liquor.

The wild boar monster patted its belly with satisfaction, then chuckled and cupped its hands to Li Jingxiao, saying, "Thank you, Master. I haven't had such delicious, hot steamed buns in a long time."

"If I could eat my fill every day, I'd gladly spar with real people a few more times."

Li Jingxiao also laughed with satisfaction.

Playing one more game means gaining 1.2 more experience points.

Let alone 200 steamed buns, I would be willing to give up 500 a day.

This time, even though Kang was knocked away more than ten times, he only groaned in pain and didn't seem to go berserk.

Li Jingxiao probably understood that as long as the benefits were sufficient, even if he was beaten until he was grimacing, he would only complain verbally.

If you let him eat or drink something, he'll immediately forget the beating he suffered.

When Li Jingxiao stopped, his level was already 71 (38.2/42).
In the past, I would definitely have continued to beat this wild boar a few more times to try and reach level 72 as soon as possible.

But now, everyone's cooperating like this.

Let's not disrupt this harmonious relationship.

Li Jingxiao chatted with him for a few minutes before going upstairs.

The eight-armed demon was meditating and in seclusion just like yesterday.

We could only go up to the third floor.

As soon as the three peach blossom fairies saw him, they stood up, bowed, and said in unison, "Greetings, True Immortal."

Li Jingxiao nodded. There wasn't much to say about the competition with these three flower fairies.

I won three games smoothly and gained 9 experience points.

Level 72 (5.2 million/44 million)
属性点加在了悟性上，三维属性体质40、根骨35+12、悟性38+6。

I checked the time; it was only 10 a.m. I was just about to go up to the fourth floor to take a look.

But before he could go up, the three flower fairies spoke up: "Master, the fourth floor is occupied by the Crimson Serpent Demon."

This snake demon is skilled in using potent venom, and the fourth floor is filled with poisonous mist; it is also extremely ferocious.

If you haven't made any preparations, it's best not to go up there.

Upon hearing that it was poison, Li Jingxiao immediately stopped in his tracks.

However, isn't the red-banded snake a non-venomous snake?
But if you think about it, since it's a snake demon, once it becomes a venomous snake, it must be extremely poisonous, just like the three peach blossom demons said.

Moreover, just because I don't go up doesn't mean I can't test the snake demon's strength.

Without the Maoshan Demon-Locking Tower token, no demon can leave the Demon-Locking Tower.

There's no way to move between floors.

So Li Jingxiao thought about it and continued to go up, but did not go directly to the fourth floor.

Instead, they went to the corridor on the fourth floor and looked inside through the invisible barrier of light.

Sure enough, the entire fourth floor was filled with a thick green poisonous fog.

In the poisonous fog, one could vaguely see a snake demon with a human body and a snake tail, fast asleep on a high platform.

Instead, when breathing, a lot of green mist will also emerge from the nostrils.

Li Jingxiao could tell at a glance that the green mist was definitely the aura emanating from the snake demon.

After thinking for a moment, he reached through the barrier and scattered a handful of rune-infused gold beans inside.
