Mortal Transformation into Immortal

"What, you've discovered something?"

As he leaped across a stream, the weight in his palm conveyed a message.

Moreover, judging from the reaction, the level of the spiritual medicine he sensed was not low, which greatly surprised him.

So they went in the direction they sensed.

Not far from him, just twenty feet away.

"Is it in there?"

Yu Ling discovered that the source of the weight was coming from a small stone cave.

Moreover, standing here, he also felt a special kind of fluctuation.

"That's all."

However, this fluctuation only lasted for five breaths before it abruptly stopped.

It appeared for a very short time.

They couldn't even sense the weight.

There's definitely something inside.

Yu Ling cautiously approached, preparing to investigate and see what it was.

The fluctuations he just felt were very peculiar.

Just to be on the safe side, when he reached the entrance of the cave, which was only half a meter high, he threw a stone inside.

"not good."

Two red lights suddenly appeared in the dim light.

The weight in his palm sensed danger, its frantic throbbing a warning signal to him.

Yu Ling immediately retreated.

The next moment, a dark figure rushed out of the cave.

His entire body emanated a fiery black aura.

"It's a monster!"

Yu Ling landed on a rock behind him, looking solemnly at the ten-foot-long monster below.

"Black Flame Pig"

He recognized it; it was a black flame boar demon, considered a fierce creature among low-level demon beasts.

If he had encountered them before, he would have definitely run away, but now that he has broken through to the fifth level of Qi Refining, his strength has greatly increased, and he can now completely deal with low-level demonic beasts.

Moreover, low-level demonic beasts of this caliber have a very high probability of producing demonic crystals.

With a thought, the magic sword floated out from his clothes, flew into his hand, and returned to its normal size.

Seeing the weapon appear in his hand, the red light in the pig demon's eyes deepened, and then it leaped up and charged at him.

"Frosty Nether Force!"

This boar demon was much stronger than the mantis, especially its huge tusks and mouth. Its attack almost tore through his robes, so Yu Ling dared not be careless and threw a punch with all his might from a distance. This was his strongest move.

However, when the icy aura struck the pig demon, it was instantly deflected by the black flames on its surface, scattering around and leaving behind a lot of mystic ice on the ground.

"It didn't work."

Yu Ling was surprised and quickly dodged when she saw the pig demon attacking.

"Snapped!"

The large tree behind him was snapped in two by the pig demon, sending splinters flying everywhere.

"go!"

Yu Ling threw the sword with all his might.

The sword flashed like a streak of light, piercing precisely into the pig demon's neck.

Flesh was ripped open, and blood flowed from the black flames, splattering on the ground.

"roar!"

The pig demon let out a low growl, then turned and charged at him at an extremely fast speed.

"Indeed, he's tough and thick-skinned."

Yu Ling kept dodging and retrieved the magic weapon. The sword had only pierced the skin and had not damaged any vital organs.

The pig demon's fur has strong defensive capabilities, comparable to the defensive spells of a cultivator.

While dodging, he tried to attack with the blade of his sword, but found that although he could make cuts, he still could not finish the fight quickly.

Although this method can wear down the pig demon, it takes a lot of time.

In these places, such a large fight is likely to attract nearby monsters.

"It seems the only option is to get close and use my fists to force the Frost Nether Force into the pig demon's body."

After dodging the impact, Yu Ling landed under the tree, having already made up her mind.

The Cold Nether Force is a close-combat spell; it's not very effective for ranged attacks.

Although the pig demon's attacks are swift, they are simple and rely on charging. As long as you remain calm, it poses little threat.

"Die."

Seeing it charge again, Yu Ling quickly leaped to the side, dodging it, and then propelled himself forward with both legs, slamming his fist heavily into the pig demon's hind leg.

"roar!"

The pig demon immediately let out a heart-wrenching scream.

The demonic flames on his body immediately weakened, especially in the areas where he was hit, where the demonic flames disappeared completely, revealing rough, black fur.

But upon closer inspection, beneath these furs lies a layer of ice.

Sensing danger, the pig demon immediately limped into the forest.

Its hind leg was completely frozen solid and could not move.

"Still trying to run?"

Yu Ling quickly gave chase.

The pig demon's speed was much slower than before, and it was caught up in less than four breaths.

Yu Ling leaped up and struck it on the back with a palm.

The pig demon immediately fell to the ground, rolling around until it finally stopped under an old tree.

It staggered as it tried to stand up, but it could only control its front two feet.

"puff!"

Yu Ling plunged his sword into its eye, with half of the blade disappearing inside.

The pig demon's body went limp, and it collapsed to the ground, motionless.

Yu Ling sheathed his sword, and blood flowed from the wound.

When life ends, the demonic flames extinguish, revealing the true form of the pig demon.

The wild boar was completely black, its fur covered with all sorts of scars.

Yu Ling swung his sword again, and the wild boar's hide was much weaker than before, so its head was chopped open.

A black crystal the size of a thumb rolled out of the head.

"There really are demon crystals."

Yu Ling smiled and picked up the demon crystal.

This pig demon has decent defense. If I hadn't broken through my cultivation level, those two palm strikes might not have done much damage to it, and it might have actually escaped.

After putting away the demon crystal, he left.

The boar demon's corpse was of better quality than the mantis demon's. Although it could be sold for money, it weighed seven or eight hundred pounds, which he simply couldn't carry away.

Yu Ling did not leave, but went to the outside of the low cave.

The unusual fluctuation just now came from inside, but of course it definitely didn't originate from the pig demon.

The only thing that can make a pound want is something that contains spiritual essence.

Yu Ling came to the cave entrance to look inside. The space inside was not large, only about ten feet wide, and it was covered with a lot of dry grass and moss. It was a wild boar's den.

He bent down and went inside. Apart from the narrow entrance, the space inside was quite large, and he could barely stand up.

There is a small hole in the top of the cave, through which a ray of sunlight shines down.

The light shines on the stone slabs on the ground.

"This is."

Yu Ling looked at the spot where the ray of sunlight shone, where a jet-black bead was embedded, and on the stone slab around the bead, there was a pattern of a snake coiling around it.

Upon seeing this, his heart skipped a beat, and a thought flashed through his mind: "Could this be an opportunity left by the Ziyang Sect for their disciples in the mountains?"

He has now begun to venture deep into the mountains. Few menial servants can reach the fifth level of Qi Refining, so few menial servants come to these places. The opportunities reserved by the Ziyang Sect are for formal disciples, but if a menial disciple can find them on his own, the Ziyang Sect will not say anything.

"The fluctuation of spiritual energy just now must have been caused by sunlight shining on this bead."

Yu Ling touched the bead and discovered a faint power within it. He guessed that this must be a special technique left behind by an elder, which would be activated when exposed to sunlight, thus emitting spiritual energy and attracting those with affinity.
