Immortality and Cultivation: Starting with Harvesting the Talents of Demonic Beasts

Chapter 83 Making a fortune
The gaunt cultivator, entangled by the [Wandering Bee Blade] in the distance, had eyes wide with rage, his hands frantically changing hand seals: "Flower Stone Shield! Activate!"

However, it was too late; the second fireball had already torn through the sky, hurtling towards them with terrifying force...

"boom--!!!"

After the explosion, only two charred and partially destroyed corpses and charred remains of shields scattered on the ground remained.

Lin Changheng remained calm, raising his hand to retrieve the [Wandering Bee Knife] and [Jade Bamboo Whip], which he then slipped into his sleeve like a swimming fish.

At this point, all three cultivators who had undergone the three tribulations had perished.

More than ten years later, Lin Changheng once again took to the field to fight, and achieved great results, easily defeating three people in a one-against-three battle.

Next, naturally, comes the harvest time.

Lin Changheng first went to a distance and picked up the sandbag, then dusted off the sand and dust that had settled on it.

This mid-grade magic artifact is somewhat special, and its power is truly remarkable. If it weren't for the use of the [Earth Escape Technique] to escape, it would have had to rely on the mid-grade defensive magic artifact [Azure Dragon Flag] to withstand the attack. In that case, it would be hard to say what would happen.

After smiling with satisfaction, he then went to the remains of the tall and strong male cultivator with the highest cultivation level and pulled out a storage bag.

He then quickly took the storage bags from the other two people and picked up the iron sword magic weapon, but the broken magic weapon shield made him feel a little heartache.

They're all spirit stones.

Even if he doesn't need it himself, he can sell it to others. After all, he lived a frugal and hard life for eleven years before becoming a pill refiner...

"However, the fact that this magical shield could be smashed to pieces suggests that it already had old damage and cracks, so its value is limited."

Thinking about it this way makes me feel a little better.

Lin Changheng quickly cleaned up the battlefield and removed the traces. Then he saw the trees that were still burning fiercely from the flames. Before long, the entire mountain might be on fire.

He immediately reached out and touched it, and with a "poof," the flame was extinguished!

This is a [fire-repelling technique]!
"It's a pity that these three tribulation cultivators are not fire magic cultivators, otherwise we could really use them to test things out."

Lin Changheng nodded in satisfaction, then looked on with a hint of regret. He tightened his grip on the three storage bags in his arms, and left without lingering.

As for the three mutilated corpses, they were also cleaned up.

If they are intact, there is no need to do anything extra.

After all, even the corpses of cultivators have value in the cultivation world.

It includes various methods such as corpse refining, material gathering, and blood cultivation, with diverse applications.

They would be excitedly picked up by passing cultivators.

It is regarded as a gift from nature.

……

Inside the Desolate Ruins Immortal Inn.

Lin Changheng had just finished a magical battle, but he wasn't particularly tired. He sat down at the table and poured himself a cup of spiritual tea.

He took a slow sip.

carefree!

The journey was very fast and smooth, without any stops or unexpected incidents.

"Finally, I can check the loot."

Three storage bags were placed on the table.

He randomly picked one up, opened it, and looked at it with disappointment in his eyes.

Aside from spirit stones, elixirs, and talismans, there were only everyday clothes and accessories; nothing rare or precious.

Put one down and open another, and it's the same.

They were poor and not very wealthy.

Lin Changheng's excitement at opening the blind box faded considerably. He reached out and opened the last one, which, unsurprisingly, belonged to the cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

The number of spirit stones wasn't much, around 120, but it was much better than the previous two, and they managed to collect a small pile.

But the pile of half-empty bottles of pills all indicate where their spirit stones have gone.

They probably all bought them to take as elixirs.

That's true. The spirit stones and treasures that the plunderers seized must have been used as resources or added to their fighting techniques! After all, plunderers are engaged in a dangerous business, risking their lives. The more strength they have, the better their chances of winning and escaping unscathed.

But what truly caught Lin Changheng's attention was a large wooden box placed in the corner of his storage bag. It was made of heavy sandalwood and had the effect of preventing spiritual energy from dissipating.

The presence of three spirit-locking talismans affixed to the top further confirms this point.

Most of them are valuable items.

Slightly excited, I immediately took it out and placed it on the ground.

He tore off the talisman and opened the box in one swift motion, and immediately a strong, pungent smell of blood wafted out.

"hiss……"

It's all the essence and blood of demonic beasts!

The deep red color reflects off the bottles, which are piled high with nearly four hundred bottles!
"Essence blood of the Fire Lizard?"

Lin Changheng felt that the fishy smell was somewhat familiar, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself in surprise.

Then he took out a bottle, his eyes flashing with an unusual light, and immediately used the [Spirit Observation Technique] to examine it carefully.

"really!"

Lin Changheng became excited. He had thought he wouldn't be able to acquire the full five levels of the [Earth Fire Lizard Treasure Seed] on this trip, but unexpectedly, he found a new path to success.

But he didn't know that the three cultivators who had just undergone tribulation were actually glad that they hadn't given their essence blood to the red-robed elder, otherwise they would have lost some of their gains.

As a result, Lin Changheng obtained this essence blood for free without spending a single spirit stone!

It must be said that life is unpredictable, yet it often contains surprises.

"It's delicious."

Lin Changheng chuckled, washing away his previous gloom, and planned to start seizing the spirit after the inventory was finished.

I tallied up the spirit stones, and they totaled about two hundred.

The various bottles and jars, and the scattered pills, were mostly low-grade first-level pills, with a few mid-grade ones.

Moreover, most of the mid-grade pills are in the storage bag of that cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

"Even among those undergoing tribulation, there are clear class distinctions? The gap between the rich and poor is quite obvious..."

Lin Changheng's expression changed, and he clicked his tongue inwardly.

After a rough count, the value of the existing pills is around one hundred spirit stones.

If those bottles and jars are filled up, it wouldn't be a problem to double or triple the value.

"pity."

Including talismans, various utensils, and other miscellaneous items, the total value is approximately 330 spirit stones.

Of course, this doesn't include the box of demonic beast blood and several magical artifacts.

Among them, there is only one medium-grade magic artifact, which is the [Sandbag] that breathes in and out yellow sand.

Since the item was unclaimed, Lin Changheng used his magic to cleanse it for a moment and then directly erased the mark of the tall, strong male cultivator. He then attempted to refine it and imprint his own magic mark on it.

As a result, a "Huh?" was heard.

"This magical artifact is actually a masterpiece among mid-grade magical artifacts!"

"No wonder its power is so extraordinary; it might not even be worth three hundred spirit stones."

It can trap enemies with sand and confuse their five senses. In addition, its attack is not bad. It can break through the blockade of two mid-grade [Cold Wind Talisman] in a short time.

"Indeed, this is the most valuable item among the three storage bags."

Lin Changheng continued looking at the lower-grade magic artifacts.

There are also four items.

The tall, strong man also had a magic weapon, a short sword, in his storage bag. Because he was fully focused on controlling the [Sinking Sandbag], he didn't have the energy to use it, and it remained gathering dust until his death.

The short male cultivator's iron sword and defensive jade pendant were slightly damaged, but still usable, and could be sold for a moderate price.

As for the gaunt male cultivator, his [Flower Stone Shield] magic weapon had shattered, but his [Silver Needle] attack set was still intact.
