Immortal Dao Fruits, Cards to Help Me

Chapter 128 The Old Bull Grows Horns
Of course, the most important card is [Snake Spirit - Lady of Carefree Life - 1/9 (Red)], which is now 3/9!
After tallying up his gains from the cards, Chen Xiuxian opened his inventory.

Then all I could do was sigh. It was useless after all!

—Before the dungeon ended, all the magical treasures that Wuyou had given him disappeared.

As expected, it was impossible to take advantage of the situation through such a clever trick.

Currently, it seems the only way to gain benefits from that dungeon is through card abilities.

Although the shortcut didn't work, Chen Xiuxian's other attempt succeeded.

That's Toad Gold's Fairy Special Forces, now with four more underlings.

Two of them were favored by Chen Xiuxian.

The term "Little Pig Demon (Green)" has two entries: "Destiny (Blue)" and "Hard Fate (Blue)".

The term "Crow Monster (Green)" has two entries: "Clever (Green)" and "Insight (Blue)".

The other two little fairies were just average, their levels were only eleven or twelve.

Not only are they inferior to the veteran team members, but even the two newcomers from the same period, Little Pig Demon and Crow Monster, are two levels higher than them.

In addition, Jinzi's green toad cousin has also grown after going through some trials and tribulations, and has actually leveled up to level 21!
He has entered the Qi Refining Realm!
He became the vice-captain of this fairy special forces team.

……

Keep the cards you might use, and list the rest that are probably useless on the auction house. Then check the "Items - Curious Things - Divine Beasts" category to see if there are any Divine Beasts that you can use.

As a result, he saw "Jia Wood Longevity Sha" for 4 coins. Chen Xiuxian added 10 spirit stones, and bid 86 spirit stones. He wondered if he could get it.
Chen Xiuxian opened his eyes and sat up in bed.

Let's think back to what happened before the dungeon?

More than forty days have passed, and I'm starting to feel jet-lagged.

Chen Xiuxian looked at his character profile; he was already incredibly powerful.

very satisfied.

Unfortunately, in the past, running a dungeon once would level you up twice, with some left over.

I've defeated a whole bunch of bosses, but I'm still about 3000+ experience points short of leveling up.

Those four thousand will have to fight three or four hundred monsters!

Gotta think of a way!
……

The next day, Chen Xiuxian and Lao Niu were in a secret room when Chen Xiuxian "evolved" him!
Dou Zhongde, Mimi, Ma Si'er, Jinzi, and others were all protecting the Dharma in the surrounding area.

Old Niu has figured it out and plans to use the card [Dust-Repelling Bloodline (Red)].

Although it involves risks, it's worth it!

Chen Xiuxian would never use this.

Although listing it on an auction house or keeping it for future use by subordinates is also an option.

However, Chen Xiuxian still preferred to strengthen Lao Niu.

Not long after he transmigrated, he was forced to take an adventure, and that's when he met Old Ox.

They went through thick and thin together, fighting monsters and going on adventures. Whether it was boarmen or ancient tomb zombies, Old Bull always stood firmly in front of them.

He's a good friend.

I can't let my brothers down.

Chen Xiuxian knew that he and Lao Niu would have to part ways sooner or later.

I've made up my mind, I want to become an immortal!
Based solely on the system and the cards.

But Lao Niu neither had the ability nor the idea. He longed for a warm home with his wife and children.

After all, he came here in the first place to avoid the boar people's conscription.

Now, among the dozen or so cattle in that Black Mountain Village, he has set his sights on a young heifer.

I've been going there almost every day for the past two days, acting all flashy!
Chen Xiuxian considered it a final guarantee for his brother.

With this red 4th-tier bloodline, he could protect himself and those around him more than enough.

As for the future, we'll have to wait and see.

……

"Alright! Here it comes, focus!" Chen Xiuxian shouted.

Then he placed the hand holding the card on the old bull's head.

At this moment, the old ox was wearing a loose cloth robe, sitting cross-legged on the kang (a heated brick bed) with its hooves bare, its eyes wide open.

"Come on! I'm ready!" Chen Xiuxian clapped his hands down upon hearing this.

A faint light, invisible to others, flashed by, and the [Dust-Repelling Bloodline (Red)] was activated.

Old Niu suddenly shuddered, and saw that the veins on his face were bulging, the blood vessels protruding under the skin and twitching incessantly.

His facial muscles twitched involuntarily, his cheeks clenched tightly, and his teeth chattered!
A surge of heat began to emanate from his body, followed by profuse sweating and white steam rising from his head!
The old ox's internal energy circulated wildly, moving through his meridians like a firefighter putting out fires everywhere.

But he feels like his whole body is on fire!

It felt as if something had seeped into every corner of his body, radiating boundless heat, threatening to burst him open!
Chen Xiuxian took out a water gourd from his inventory and, with a wave of his hand, poured a stream of clear spring water onto the old ox. Then, steam rose up!
"Old Niu, hang in there!" he shouted.

Old Niu could only grit his teeth, unable to hear what Chen Xiuxian was shouting at all.

This situation lasted for about half a cup of tea's time, until the old ox's whole body turned bright red, just like a boiled shrimp.

Moreover, his muscles were bulging and taut, making his loose robe look like a tight-fitting garment!
Then Chen Xiuxian noticed that his head was pointed.
He originally had two cow horns on his forehead, but now a pointed bump has appeared on the top of his forehead!
This ordeal lasted an hour and a half. Old Niu endured it for three hours, nearly collapsing from exhaustion, only managing to stay afloat thanks to Chen Xiuxian's various foods and pills. In the end, he finally pulled through.

At this moment, a small pointed horn, about three centimeters long, bulged out between the two corners of his forehead, slightly above the center.
You can barely see it unless you part your hair.

He touched it himself and said, "I feel like this thing will keep growing!" It looked just like this when he first grew horns as a child!

Chen Xiuxian leaned back in his chair and breathed a sigh of relief. He had watched Lao Niu struggle to stay upright until he was completely exhausted. He was too tense.

"So what if it gets longer? You already have two, one more won't make a difference!" Chen Xiuxian comforted him.

Old Niu asked Dou Zhongde to give him the bronze mirror, and looked at himself in the mirror for a long time: "What kind of normal old ox has three horns?"

Chen Xiuxian laughed: "Don't worry! The little cow won't mind you! How cool is that!"

Old Niu chuckled: "What little cow! Her name is Cuihua."

Chen Xiuxian: Okay, hurry up and serve the pickled cabbage!
I didn't expect the [Dust-Repelling Bloodline (Red)] to be so effective; it took me more than three hours to use it.

They've worn the old ox out of its skin.

Chen Xiuxian originally had a complete "enhancement plan," but he could only discuss it tomorrow.

But the effects of this bloodline are truly amazing.

The fusion had only just begun when Old Niu's level broke through to level 21, entering the Qi Refining Realm.

Moreover, both innate and acquired attributes have seen significant growth.

Two more "???" symbols have appeared in the talent attribute entries.

And just as he said, there's definitely room for growth in the future!

……

The next day, Chen Xiuxian completed the follow-up enhancements to the old ox.

Earthshatter (Blue) Spell Card...

Earth Shield (Green) Spell Card...

[Stone Skin (Green)] Spell Card...

【Earthquake Strike (Blue)】: Slams the ground, dealing damage to all enemies within range and knocking/stunning them for 1 second.

The Mimi ones are only green quality, this one is the enhanced version!

I bought a few cards while browsing the auction house yesterday.

The [Geographical Thick Soil Technique (Blue)] was also used on Old Ox.

Chen Xiuxian no longer needs this Qi Refining Realm cultivation method.

Especially since this cultivation technique is earth-based, and Chen Xiuxian is already quite earthy already~
Speaking of which, this thing was cultivated by the Dustless King, and it comes from the same source as the [Dust-Repelling Bloodline (Red)], so they should be quite compatible.

However, it's still the same problem I mentioned before.

Without a system to assist him, Lao Niu might not be able to master this Qi Refining Realm cultivation technique even if he practices it his whole life!

Chen Xiuxian also gave Lao Niu the [Earth-Shattering Mountain-Splitting Axe (Blue)], [Six Ding Soldiers Armor Method (Blue)], and [Thirty-Six Roads Mountain-Splitting Axe Method (Green)].

These things match quite well.

Actually, all of these were dropped by the boss of Black Wind Stronghold.

I had been thinking of removing it in real life to prevent it from harming people.

I happen to lack experience, while Lao Niu needs to give it a try.

Great, you're the one!
