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

Chapter 94 Powerful Demonic Arts (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)

"...Fortunately, I had already mastered the [Qi Concealment Technique], and was still some distance from it. Moreover, I had two mid-grade talismans and one high-grade [Exploding Flame Talisman] in my hand. When activated, my aura was astonishing. The thief couldn't tell the difference for a moment, and being extremely afraid of his life, he was immediately frightened away."

Then, after careful analysis,

The basic logic was found to be sound, but some details still need to be added.

But adding details is not as good as erasing them.

After a burst of magical energy, everything was obscured.

"good."

Lin Changheng withdrew his hand and smiled with satisfaction. Suddenly, he heard a low, delicate moan, as if he were crying out. He immediately slapped his forehead.

How could I forget about her?
He immediately turned around and strode closer, only to see the female cultivator lying on the layer of withered leaves, her body twisting gently like a beautiful snake.

"uh-huh……"

The veil covering her face had slipped off at some point, revealing a pale yet undeniably beautiful face. The faint white light that had been veiling her face could no longer be maintained.

Their true appearance was revealed.

"is her!"

It was none other than Xu Hanji, the eldest daughter of the Xu family.

Lin Changheng had some guesses based on the auction of the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Item, but he couldn't confirm them. After all, what family's eldest son or grandson would do such dangerous things outside?

They usually stay at home, waiting on everyone for them.

Unless, the head of the Xu family is deliberately grooming his daughter to succeed him, requiring merit or training for her.

……

Her brows, like distant mountains veiled in darkness, were furrowed, her cheeks flushed an unnatural red, and her breathing was rapid and weak. Clearly, the side effects of the crimson mist were extremely strong; she had not yet regained her senses and was still lost in fantasies and desires.

"How domineering!"

Lin Changheng crouched down and immediately felt a scorching breath. He reached out to check on her condition while pondering, "Since it's not poison, I wonder if my [Poison-Dissolving Demon Technique] will be effective."

The result was a slight contact.

Xu Hanji's fair hands unconsciously wrapped around it, as if grasping at the last straw.

She gripped his sleeve with all her might, her fingertips trembling slightly, and murmured incoherently.

Her body moved uncontrollably toward him, seemingly instinctively seeking support, her forehead resting on his arm, her hot breath seeping through the fabric.

Lin Changheng was taken aback. He was no saint, so he quickly steadied her shoulders and whispered, "Fellow Daoist Xu, wake up!"

This soft exclamation brought Xu Hanji back to her senses. Her crimson eyes glanced at the man before her: "Fellow Daoist Lin..."

Ok?
Lin Changheng was startled when his identity was revealed, but then he realized that since this woman was Xu Hanji, the caravan manager would not hide it from her and had most likely told her his identity.

So, during this period, I was just hiding my loneliness...

Just as Lin Changheng was distracted, the clarity that had appeared in the female cultivator's eyes was swallowed up again, and the next instant, a soft, boneless body pressed against him without warning.

Lin Changheng was startled, but was pulled into a tight embrace. She was draped over him like an octopus, yet felt no weight at all.

Light as a swallow – that's the best description.

Lin Changheng instinctively tried to unleash his magic to push the woman away, but Xu Hanji's beautiful face was already incredibly close, and then her fragrant lips fell like a storm, causing the little bit of magic he had gathered to inexplicably dissipate.

However, Lin Changheng's concession did not receive the reward he deserved; instead, the attackers intensified their attacks, tearing at Lin Changheng's robes.

At the same time, it has a clever little tongue, which allows it to conquer cities and territories and do whatever it wants.

Although Xu Hanji was inexperienced in such matters, he still acted on instinct.

Lin Changheng never considered himself a virtuous gentleman, and he did not refuse this blessing. However, he knew that at this moment, in this situation, it was not appropriate to do so.

He immediately reached out and grabbed Xu Hanji's fair wrist, enduring the female cultivator's domineering abuse, and unleashed the [Poison-Transforming Demonic Technique] into her. "Effective!"

Lin Changheng was surprised to find that the crimson mist surging within Xu Hanji's body, upon encountering the pure spiritual energy transformed by the [Poison-Transforming Demonic Technique], stopped spreading and instead remained obediently frozen in place, allowing itself to be enveloped.

At the same time, Xu Hanji seemed to have calmed down a bit. Although he was still pestering Lin Changheng, he was no longer as domineering and crazy as before.

Time passed slowly, and most of the crimson mist in Xu Hanji's body had disappeared.

Her face gradually returned to normal, her body quietly detached from Lin Changheng, her eyes closed, she fell into a deep sleep, and became quiet and aloof again, almost exactly the same as when they first met.

Lin Changheng, upon witnessing this scene, had a slight glint in his eyes, it was unclear whether he was relieved that the [Poison-Dissolving Demon Technique] had worked or regretting something.

About half an incense stick later, Lin Changheng finally let out a soft breath and released her wrist.

The crimson mist inside her body was completely swept away.

And as the pure spiritual energy receded, it entered Lin Changheng's body.

But in the next instant, the magical power within Lin Changheng's body began to stir restlessly, as if it were some kind of highly nourishing substance that could be refined.

He then discovered that the side effects that had previously affected Xu Hanji did not manifest in him at all.

"His body, modified by the [Poison-Transforming Demonic Technique], is this powerful?"

Lin Changheng raised an eyebrow and smiled. Seeing that Xu Hanji was not acting strangely, he cast a spell to remove the remaining kiss marks and water stains on the female cultivator's face. He then sat down and began to try to refine the crimson mist.

Moreover, his mission was already accomplished, so there was no need for him to engage in combat again.

As for whether she had that [Foundation Building Spiritual Item] in her storage bag, Lin Changheng was curious, but he still chose not to touch it.

There are only two ways to do it:

Firstly, by using Chen Guqing's name, they could seize the storage bag, hide it somewhere, and then search for it later.

However, it is uncertain whether there will be tracking marks on it, which could lead to its recovery or even drag it into a vortex of suspicion, depriving it of a stable environment for development.

Moreover, once this storage bag is lost, the Xu family will definitely search every inch of the place thoroughly and repeatedly, and it will be difficult to let it go so easily.

Under the magnifying glass, Lin Changheng wasn't entirely sure whether there were still unresolved flaws in his cover-up.

Second, he killed the female cultivator, destroyed the magical imprint on the storage bag, and then fled far away, entering a period of escape...

Not to mention that Lin Changheng had no deep-seated hatred for the Xu family, but rather a debt of gratitude between them, he, with his own set of principles, would not have done such a thing.

……

About a quarter of an hour later.

A whooshing sound came from afar.

"coming."

Although Lin Changheng was meditating and refining the crimson mist, he still kept a part of his attention outside.

In the outside world, it would be absolutely impossible for him to concentrate fully and selflessly on cultivation.

"Master Lin is ahead!"

The voice of Xu Xulin, the caravan manager, drifted on the wind: "It seems everything is alright!"

Anyone could hear a hint of surprise in it.

Behind him were two cultivators at the late stage of Qi Refining, who came together in a magic boat.

It was Xu Xuheng, the head of the family, and Xu Qianzhan, Fugui's father-in-law, who looked anxious.

No one responded to Xu Xulin. Only the magic boat arrived with a whoosh. After the three of them jumped down from mid-air, the empty magic boat shrank instantly, turned into a ray of light, and entered the sleeve of the Xu family head's robe.

"Ji'er!"
