The path to immortality through demonic cultivation begins with devouring snakes to become immortals

Less than fifteen minutes later, Li Xiaobai, scratching the back of his head, was chased out.

I got three solid shovel blows to the back of my head! My head's throbbing!

"No! Who knew that the tall, sturdy ones of the third-grade herb were just weeds, while the buds were the real medicinal herbs! He didn't tell me! System, you be the judge!"

【●﹏●】

C!

[Ding~ According to our observations, powerful beings like to create an air of mystery! Host, you might want to go back and try again.]

"What are you trying?"

[Friendly reminder to the host: Once upon a time, there was a monkey on Fangcun Mountain. After he was tapped three times...]

"Wow! That's right!!" Li Xiaobai thought to himself, "You're an expert."

Although... I'm a little uncertain.

But I also got hit three times on the back of the head! You know what, it's really possible that the high priest was trying to give me an opportunity, and he was hinting at it to me in this way!

Of course, it's also possible that he was simply so angry that he wanted to hit himself.

But isn't this just gambling? You might regret it for a while if you gamble, but you'll regret it for a lifetime if you don't!

Thinking it over, Li Xiaobai gritted his teeth and turned back to the herb garden.

At this moment, in the herb garden, Grandpa Lu was heartbroken and sobbing as he looked at the two acres of herb fields that had been completely destroyed.

Unlike humans, the demon race is not rich in spirit stone mines. Although they do have abundant spiritual herbs due to their vast territory and sparse demon population, they also have a lot of refining materials and other rare and precious materials.

However, the demon race has never produced a decent alchemist or weapon refiner throughout history.

What can Lu do?

As the high priest of the demon race, he could only make the most of the spiritual resources! This area in the Ancestral Demon Cave was a piece of land that he had irrigated with his spiritual power for thousands of years.

They found so many medicinal herb seeds, and after planting them, they took great care of them. It can be said that this piece of land alone supplied more than 40% of the medicinal herbs for the demon race!

Deer Lord isn't afraid of eating, but he's afraid of wasting food.

Damn it, that demon who pulled up all the spiritual herbs and left only a bunch of weeds—he'd only ever seen one like that in his hundreds of thousands of years! Now, Lord Deer truly believes that little thing isn't some reincarnated soul.

He also admitted that his previous thoughts were truly an insult to the immortal realm.

Just then, a handsome young man with a humble and gentle smile approached, his beautiful face bearing a hint of fawning...

"Um... Master Lu, I'm back."

Lu Ye took a deep breath, a few hairs on his head started to stand on end, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You little brat, you dare to come back?"

Li Xiaobai: "????"

Before Li Xiaobai could react, a shovel slammed into his forehead! It sent him sprawling! Li Xiaobai scrambled to his feet and ran as fast as he could…

"Hey hey hey!! I was wrong, I was wrong, Master Lu! I won't do it again!!"

The system misled me again!

Seeing Li Xiaobai run away in a flash, Lu Ye, who was still holding the shovel, suddenly smiled.

Even those old eyes, which had been cloudy for countless years, seemed to regain a spark of life!

He let out a sigh, then looked with heartache at the medicinal herb seedling that he had pulled up and replanted but could not survive. He could only shake his head and sigh as he sowed the medicinal herb seeds again.

No wonder our ancestors in ancient times liked to raise small creatures as apprentices when they got old.

It really boosts energy and vitality! After Li Xiaobai's antics, even Lu Ye felt much younger.

I'm so angry I could scream.

…………

Outside, Li Xiaobai cursed the system in his mind, while the system remained silent, pretending to be a quail.

However, at this moment, two burly men, each three meters tall, came towards them. Before Li Xiaobai even noticed them, the two demons, whose faces were bruised and swollen, had all their injuries healed.

"A small snake?"

"Hey! Old Jiao, you know what, it really looks like a human! It's rare to see someone who looks this human right after transforming!"

"Yes, it's just that its small body isn't good; it could easily be crushed to death."

The two demons pointed and talked loudly at Li Xiaobai. Li Xiaobai, who was full of anger, was about to speak up and talk about the essence of Chinese culture, but he immediately shut up after glancing at the two demons.

I've seen it in their eyes; they're a demon I can't defeat.

"Li Xiaobai greets the two seniors."

"Hmm, there's a tanuki!"

The burly man, who was even more imposing in comparison, flashed two rows of large white teeth at Li Xiaobai.

However, another person was carefully observing Li Xiaobai.

This thing... doesn't seem to be what the high priest said, a being who appears to be a reincarnated immortal, someone who has undergone tribulations and rebuilt their cultivation.

Alright, the High Priest's demonic quality and strength are undeniable! It's just his poor judgment...

"It's not a waste to refine the True Dragon Marrow into this state."

He leaned down to look at Li Xiaobai, his dragon eyes filled with jealousy.

The high priest personally refined the true dragon marrow! It's like feeding a dog!

"Um?"

Li Xiaobai raised his head.

"This is your opportunity. In the future, cultivate diligently in the Demon Forest."

"By the way, Yuan Yuan will be looking for you. If you don't let him vent his anger, he won't be able to get over it."

"I am also very curious."

This…this king!

Li Xiaobai's pupils suddenly contracted! No wonder he felt a very direct sense of blood pressure emanating from this guy! This is the Demon King Jiao Han!

What about the other one?

Known as the strongest demon among the demon race! The Demon King... Pang Dun!

Did I run into two dads as soon as I stepped out?

"Have some class! Why are you scaring him?!"

Pang Dun gently squatted down, looking directly at Li Xiaobai. Li Xiaobai gritted his teeth, his legs trembling uncontrollably, but at this moment! This old corporate slave who had been whipped by society did not back down!

"Interesting." Pang Dun suddenly smiled, and Li Xiaobai felt a sense of relief throughout his body.

"High Priest, you've taken on another disciple?"

Li Xiaobai remained silent.

He also accepts apprentices.

Lu Ye practically shoved his head into the ground!

"This demon forest is vast, you can go wherever you want."

After looking for a long time and not seeing anything, Pang Dun lost interest.

"Whether you live well or poorly here depends entirely on your own abilities. The High Priest hasn't accepted you yet. Even if you do become his disciple, this Demon Forest... is all about strength."

After saying that, the two demon kings walked away side by side.

Li Xiaobai was left to savor the taste.

Is it really that bizarre? Me! Li Xiaobai! I've been a migrant worker in Beijing! I've squeezed onto buses for an hour and a half commute, and I've lived in basements infested with rats! What haven't I seen?

But later... Li Xiaobai finally understood that what the Demon King Pang Dun said was actually the greatest advice and care for a junior.

And then! What made Pang Dun grit his teeth was that he really shouldn't have given Li Xiaobai that piece of advice and care! Damn it, he's ruined this king! C!

But that's a story for another time.

After leaving the area of ​​the Ancestral Demon Cave, Li Xiaobai was constantly being pushed and shoved! Not a single demon paid him any attention! His spiritual energy was originally so abundant, it was practically dripping with oil! But demons kept coming out and saying that he, a mere third-tier demon, didn't deserve to stay there, and threw him out.

During this time, Li Xiaobai got angry and drew his sword, unleashing a burst of power that scrambled blood from the great demon, making it sleepy. He then threw the sword and the snake at the demon...

Fortunately, his leather bag wasn't stolen; it was full of the medicinal herbs he had worked so hard to earn!

Until... when no demon paid any attention to him anymore.

Li Xiaobai inhaled the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which was far inferior to what it used to be, and three black lines appeared on his forehead.

"Am I, some damn out-of-towner, only fit to live in the suburbs?!"
