Starting with the titmouse, seventy-two transformations

Chapter 120 Coveting, Killing the "Sheep" for Gains

"Storage bag..."

Qi Cheng'an spat and watched Liu Sheng's departing figure, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

He had a miraculous encounter in his childhood, and his eyes could see precious light.

Over the years, while following Elder Qinghe, I have seen many celestial artifacts.

The radiance of magical artifacts and spiritual weapons is not unfamiliar to them.

Earlier in the back garden, he had noticed that Du Bingyan secretly handed a gray cloth bag to Liu Sheng.

The bag appeared ordinary, but it radiated a divine light and was a magical artifact.

He guessed that it was most likely a rare and wondrous artifact from the immortals—

Storage bag.

Just now, he caught a glimpse of that familiar precious light from Liu Sheng's embrace.

The storage bag is very likely to be carried around in this village!

The world's treasures have always belonged to those of virtue.

That storage bag was so precious; it was a terrible waste for it to fall into the hands of a country bumpkin.

perhaps……

Qi Cheng'an exhaled a breath of stale air, stood silently at the door for a moment, then turned and walked back.

Inside the main room, Elder Qinghe sat upright as before, without uttering a sound.

A young man in blue was kneeling below the altar. He was not tall and had a large mole on the corner of his mouth. He was talking animatedly, spitting as he spoke.

It was Sun Hao from the Iron Sword Sect who had come to join them the day before yesterday.

The young man with the big mole who was expelled by Du Bingyan back then.

"Elder, I swear to God, Du Bingyan and that country bumpkin are definitely having an affair!"

Sun Hao knelt on the ground, pointing to the sky and swearing an oath. His face turned bright red, and the large mole at the corner of his mouth was swollen and congested, looking like an egg hanging from it.

"so what?"

Elder Qinghe glanced at Sun Hao, took a sip of tea, and said slowly:

"Even if it's true, Abbess Jingyue will handle it; what does it have to do with me?"

"But...but Brother Mu Bai is determined to marry Du Bingyan, and even harbors murderous intentions towards Liu Sheng!"

Sun Hao reached up and scratched the blood mole at the corner of his mouth, his eyes darting around as he lowered his voice:
"Now that he has died unexpectedly, while Du Bingyan and that country bumpkin have returned safely, doesn't the elder find it strange?"

"You want me to stand up for you?"

Elder Qinghe chuckled softly, his eyes filled with indifference, sending a chill down Sun Hao's spine as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"You think you can sow discord between me and Master Jingyue and her disciples with just a few words?"
Do you think you're incredibly smart, or that I'm as stupid as a pig?

You want to use me as a 'knife' to kill someone? How dare you!

"boom!"

A loud bang suddenly erupted inside the room, like a muffled thunderclap, and a surge of air rushed out.

The tables, chairs, incense burners, long tables, and calligraphy and paintings all trembled, but were held in place by an invisible force, without moving an inch.

Sun Hao, like a cannonball, flew out of the house, crashing through two courtyard walls and seven or eight large trees before falling into the pond, getting completely soaked.

At this moment, Elder Qinghe's voice came from inside the house:
"For Brother Tiejian's sake, I'll spare your life this time. Get out!"

Sun Hao dared not complain. He struggled to climb out of the pond, knelt down and kowtowed three times towards the main room, before limping out.

Qi Cheng'an's eyes flickered a few times, then he went into the hall and whispered:
“Master, I think what Sun Hao said makes sense, why…”

"Du Bingyan is now a Qi Refiner; her past is no longer important. As for Liu Sheng..."

Elder Qinghe gave him a deep look, closed his eyes, and said in a low voice:
"There is no hope of entering the Dao in this lifetime."

The difference between a Qi Refiner and a Martial Master is like heaven and earth, they are not even on the same level of life.

Even if there was something between them before, as time goes by and the gap widens, it will be impossible for them to be together.

Once he loses his backing, a mere martial arts master can be wiped out with a flick of the wrist.

But my disciple can't wait any longer!
That storage bag...

It is rightfully mine!
Qi Cheng'an nodded, and seeing that Elder Qinghe remained silent, he bowed and withdrew.

Before long, he found Sun Hao and led him to a private room in a nearby restaurant.
-
"You scoundrel, what brings you here again?"

"Liu Lishi, you should leave now. Senior Sister Du has been confined by Master and will be copying scriptures behind closed doors for the next few days, so it's inconvenient for her to see you."

At the entrance of the inn, two young nuns stood as if facing a formidable enemy, one fierce and the other gentle and soft-spoken.

In short, they wouldn't let Liu Sheng see Du Bingyan, treating him like a thief. They wouldn't even let him know.

"I have important official business to attend to and must inform Lieutenant Du."

Liu Sheng frowned and made up a reason.

He wanted to enter the Qingyuan Cave ruins to find the longevity treasure to save the old woman, and wanted to confirm a spot with Du Bingyan.

Judging from the current situation, it seems unlikely that we will be able to see them through normal channels.

At night, will it turn into a bird or a spider?

Liu Sheng took a deep breath, stopped arguing, and turned to leave.

In the guest room.

Du Bingyan paused for a moment, then continued writing, reciting aloud:
"If there are sentient beings who are excessively lustful, they can be freed from lust by constantly reciting and revering Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva; the same applies to those who are excessively angry and foolish."

……

Go home.

The old lady has woken up and is eating porridge; she looks better.

Liu Sheng was overjoyed and spent some time with her, promising to have ten or eight children, which made her very happy.

However, she was getting old and her energy was not good; after talking for a while, she became sleepy.

After she fell asleep, Liu Sheng gave Yu Niang some instructions and then went back into the room.

Recalling his previous experience, he subconsciously clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.

If you piss me off, tonight I'll...

There are eight or nine Qi Refining cultivators openly in the city; we must not act rashly.

Don't rush, take it one step at a time.

The old woman can hold on for a while longer.

He took a deep breath and took out a storage bag from his pocket.

I haven't opened this treasure yet since I got it back. It has so many heads inside. I wonder if my second wife has cleaned it up.

Liu Sheng activated his qi and blood, and with a thought, a pile of things appeared in front of him.

Three books, thirteen talismans, more than twenty bottles of pills, a hammer, and a huge sheep's heart!

"These……"

Liu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then realized that these must be the spoils from killing the four-horned sheep demon.

Du Bingyan, that woman, stuffed them all into the storage bag.

In particular, this sheep's heart contains the true blood of a sheep demon. After being refined for medicinal purposes, it can enhance one's physical constitution and strengthen one's foundation.

Beauty is so kind!

This woman is quite something. Once I've mastered my divine skills, I'll definitely smash up the nunnery and rescue her to have my babies!
He rubbed his hands together and touched each item one by one. Light and shadow flickered before his eyes, and the "spiritual essence points" on the panel rapidly increased.

A moment later, he touched the last copy of "The Thunderstrike Hand" and fell silent.

The three books consist of two erotic novels and one titled "Thunder Strike Hand," which is a martial art technique for those who have reached the Dao realm.

By drawing upon the power of heavenly lightning to temper his hands, upon reaching mastery, he can fuse weapons into iron and unleash thunder with a backhand strike, making him extremely terrifying.

This manual alone provides 1207 points of spiritual energy.

The remaining talismans were similar to those seized from Master Zheng last time, but there were a few more types.

The talisman includes a horse-drawn talisman, a breath-concealing talisman, a sound-extinguishing talisman, a wall-penetrating talisman, a five-thunder talisman, a white lotus transformation talisman, and a painted skin talisman.

That hammer was originally thought to be a spiritual weapon or a magic weapon, but it turned out to be just a sharp weapon with only 27 points of spiritual essence attached to it!
He brought up the system panel, glanced at it, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

[Spiritual Points]: 5024
Last night, he fought with the Four-Horned Goat Demon and was ambushed by its demonic technique "Soul-Slaying Thunder," losing three avatars in succession. Just the "resurrection" alone consumed three thousand points of spiritual energy.

Fortunately, the items seized helped to recover everything, and we even gained nearly a thousand more points.

This would be enough for him to deduce and ascend to another incarnation.

The incarnations that can be deduced now are the Azure-Scaled Serpent, the Striped Giant Tiger, and the White-Faced Black Puppet Spider.

Any successful ascension will result in a qualitative improvement in his strength.

So, which one should we choose?

This is a real headache!
Forget it, let's just use the finger-pointing tool and deduce whoever it points to.

After a while——

"Deducing the 'Striped Giant Tiger' incarnation!"
