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

But catching demons and not taking their things, instead making them farm... tsk, that's really baffling.

Give me back spirit stones? What a load of rubbish!

Old Wolf, it's good that I don't whip them.

"Yes, this is really important."

Li Xiaobai pointed to the patina-covered wine jars on Lang Yuezheng's plate: "If things are done well, there'll be something even more potent than this. I'll let you drink your fill."

"real?!"

"When have I ever lied to you?" Li Xiaobai looked down at Lang Yuezheng.

Upon hearing this, Lang Yue slapped his thigh hard!

You know what, you really can't believe it, he really didn't lie to me! Brother Xiaobai said before that hanging out with him would make you rich, and now look what happened!

"Fine! Whatever you say! I, Old Wolf, will work for you!"

Seeing that Lang Yuezheng had become more serious, Li Xiaobai finally felt relieved.

He only has so few seeds! And... these seeds are really special. Although the system is a defective product and can't give him any superhuman abilities, it probably also deducts his Revelation Points.

But the stuff the system concocted was really good! He tasted one of those seeds, and it had spiritual energy! If this stuff were used to brew wine, he dared to expand the business not only to the demon race, but also to the human race.

"So, Brother Xiaobai, are you going to continue your seclusion?" Lang Yuezheng asked Li Xiaobai curiously.

Since making a name for himself, Li Xiaobai has rarely taken them on missions.

I still prefer the time I spent following Little White! That snake always manages to pull off some tricks.

"If you're going into seclusion, you still need to prepare the resources. Old Wolf has hidden all those spirit stones and herbs; I'll take you to get them in a bit!"

"So generous?" Li Xiaobai looked at Lang Yuezheng with a half-smile.

"Without you, Little White Brother, we wouldn't have earned this much! With these resources, Old Wolf doesn't even want to break through to the fourth tier anymore."

Lang Yuezheng laughed heartily.

But... it probably won't be long, I've been taking too much supplements lately.

Once he breaks through to the fourth rank, he won't be the old, weak, sick, or disabled type. He'll have to leave the territory of the third-rank demon and be a subservient servant in a new territory.

"I won't take any more; I have some left in my cave."

Li Xiaobai laughed and said, "If we don't go into seclusion, let's go and explore the area. It's not enough to just conquer this small cave dwelling."

"I'll go with you!"

"No need!" Li Xiaobai waved his hands repeatedly: "Old Wolf, if you get things done, like I said, following Brother Xiaobai will never let you down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiaobai's figure vanished!

This left Lang Yuezheng completely bewildered.

After a long pause, Lang Yuezheng's mouth suddenly gaped open: "What the hell?! Teleportation?! Isn't that something only a fourth-tier demon can control?!"

Li Xiaobai was naturally not at the fourth level; he was holding back his cultivation.

He can't move an inch without thoroughly understanding this map.

That was actually a trick that Li Xiaobai figured out while studying the Dragon Counting Technique. It was probably a simplified version of Shrinking the Earth into an Inch.

As his bloodline improves, he'll be able to grasp even a small fraction of what's inside the Dragon Clarity Manual...

The more you eat, the more you get.

But right now! Li Xiaobai is confident that even if one of those clan-level prodigies were picked out, he wouldn't be afraid at all!

In the territory of a mere third-tier demon, where the snake passes, not a blade of grass grows!

After resting in his cave for a while, Li Xiaobai, carrying a leather bag and riding the Dragon Soul Sword, flew towards the south of this large territory.

We need to recruit the pheasant and the old turtle that Lang Yuezheng mentioned; more demons will make things easier, right?

Moreover, Li Xiaobai instinctively felt that Shanji wasn't the kind of chicken who would go back on his word; he couldn't just keep wandering around in one place without looking for him.

The pheasant is probably in trouble.

But... with such a powerful old turtle in front of him, what trouble could he possibly run into?

A strong wind blew by, making Li Xiaobai's clothes flutter wildly—how dashing! Only the leather bag on his back swayed back and forth…

"System! I'm a cultivator at the peak of the Golden Core stage! If I were on Earth, I could be the planet's governor if I just survived until I reached the Nascent Soul stage!"

Li Xiaobai roared inwardly, "I go out carrying a leather bag! That's beneath me! Do you have a storage ring? I need one!"

[Ding~ The Apocalypse System forbids any form of unearned gain.]

[Random mission issued: The host must defeat an opponent with a higher cultivation level in a one-on-one battle and obtain 3 Awakening Points within one month to evolve their bloodline once again.]

[Task Rewards: Storage Ring *1; Guaranteed Excellent Draw *1; Random Upgradeable Spell *1.]

One month?! Thirty thousand!

What a fuss!

He has to take down an opponent with a higher cultivation level one-on-one? He's at the peak of the third rank, so why would he have to fight a fourth-rank opponent?!

Although the fourth-tier demons on this land are all old, weak, sick, or disabled, far inferior to ordinary fourth-tier demons with vigorous blood and energy, they are still fourth-tier demons after all!

Li Xiaobai had read so many books; how could he not know the difference between the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages?

The rewards are really generous!

Just as Li Xiaobai was gritting his teeth and calculating whether these rewards would be enough for him to break through to the fourth rank at a great cost, a sudden gust of wind swept through the mountains beneath his feet.

Even though he was so skilled at flying on a sword that he could pass a sword-flying test, he was still blown over by the wind and fell headfirst!

Li Xiaobai: "Holy crap!!"

Passive. Rocket Headbutt!

"boom!!!"

Li Xiaobai shot through the mountain like a missile, and then…

"Li Xiaobai!! Are you fucking done yet?! I've been hiding here!!"

It turned out to be a cave dwelling…

Gong Baiwan glared angrily at Li Xiaobai. He had already been robbed twice by Li Xiaobai! He had finally found a quiet place. Although the cave dwelling wasn't great, at least it was far away from Li Xiaobai's gang.

And then! He was practicing his innate wind technique when he suddenly smashed a hole in his own cave!

Li Xiaobai shook his head in confusion, then his eyes lit up with surprise and delight: "Million Brothers?!"

"Who the hell is your brother?!"

Gong Baiwan looked aggrieved.

This snake… what kind of monster is it! He had heard a lot about this snake leading a pack of wolves to do evil deeds this year, stealing so many caves and selling so many resources.

Given the disparity in resources, he is now... probably no match for Li Xiaobai.

but…

Gong Baiwan stood up, a whirlwind surging around him: "Today! This cave! You won't be taking it unless I completely crush you!"

"You're fucking bullying the cat!"

"Hey hey hey!!" Seeing Gong Baiwan about to fight desperately, Li Xiaobai quickly waved his hand: "I won't steal from you this time!"

"Then what are you doing here?!" the handsome white-haired man with heterochromia roared, his guard really broken!

"I flew south from up there, and you conjured up a gust of wind and blew me down, and you even have the nerve to ask me what I'm doing?"

Li Xiaobai flicked his sleeves: "But I won't hold it against you. I'm a person who has transcended vulgar tastes, a noble person, a person with integrity..."

Gong Baiwan said disdainfully, "Are you even human??"
