Mortal Bones

"Later it tried to escape, so I chased it for seven days and seven nights, wearing it down until it was exhausted..."

"After forcing him into that valley, he could no longer escape."

Listening quietly to Xu Taiping's story about Fairy Lingyue, although her face was calm, the shock in her heart was no less than when she saw her master slaying a dragon with one hand.

"Far beyond ordinary people's perseverance, comparable to the patience of a demon hunter. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. This was a boy who had just turned eleven years old."

According to Fairy Lingyue's original plan, after Xu Taiping mastered the Ice Breath Technique taught by her, he would be able to fight the demonic tiger. It would definitely be no problem to rely on the barrier of Qingzhu Residence to support him for a while. By then she had woken up, just in time to help him kill the demon tiger.

She had never expected that Xu Taiping would be able to kill the demonic tiger by himself.

Although some of the credit for this is due to those disciples, you must know that this demon tiger is not just a simple demon beast at the demon king level, but a tiger with the bloodline of the fierce beast Shuofeng Tiger and holding the Shuofeng Demon Pearl in his hand. Demon.

Surprised, Fairy Lingyue's eyes gradually fell on the large and small wounds on Xu Taiping's body.

Although Xu Taiping is now in the Open Door Realm and his recovery power is far beyond ordinary people, the large and small wounds covered with blood scabs are still shocking.

Fairy Lingyue only felt her nose was a little sore for no reason.

"Little Taiping, how hard is it for you?"

She touched the wound on Xu Taiping's face with her hand and asked with some feeling.

"No, not at all."

Xu Taiping shook his head firmly.

"Very good, you did a good job, even better than my sister expected. My sister did not misjudge the person."

Fairy Lingyue nodded firmly at this time.

Just like Xu Taiping's rock-solid cultivation heart, Fairy Lingyue has also firmly determined in her heart to return to the cultivation world together with this little boy.

"Sister, look, this is the Shuo Feng Bead."

Xu Taiping happily handed the demon bead to Fairy Lingyue.

Although he hasn't checked the things stored in the tiger demon's mouth, he can be sure that this Shuo Feng Bead is his biggest gain after killing the tiger this time.

"This Shuo Feng Bead... is actually a condensed demon bead in the body of the fierce beast Shuo Feng Tiger. The evil spirit in it is too strong and is not suitable for human monks to use. Keeping it around for a long time is harmful and useless."

Fairy Lingyue hesitated for a moment, but finally told Xu Taiping the truth.

"That's it..."

Xu Taiping couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this.

"But you don't have to be too disappointed. It is indeed useless at the moment, but if you use this Shuofeng Pearl as a nutrient for the Earth Fruit, it might be able to produce a good weapon."

Fairy Lingyue smiled and comforted Xu Taiping.

"Can this Shuo Feng Pearl be used as nourishment for Earth Fruit?"

Xu Taiping was a little surprised.

"The earth fruit has twelve transformations. Each time the seed is burned, it is a change. After the second transformation, you can absorb the demonic power from the demonic beasts and the demonic beasts and demonic elixirs to breed the fruits."

Fairy Lingyue nodded.

"Burn seeds...that's right!"

When Xu Taiping mentioned burning seeds, he suddenly thought of something. He immediately turned around and walked to the tiger's head. He lifted the tiger's head and poured out a pile of merit coins, gold, silver and jewelry.

"The tiger demon has at least three thousand merit coins, which is enough for us to buy a true fire talisman."

Xu Taiping picked up a handful of merit coins from the ground and looked at Fairy Lingyue with excitement.

Among the treasures stored in the tiger demon's mouth, they were mainly gold and silver, and there were not many merit coins. In addition, Xu Taiping also saw things like secret manuals of exercises and magic weapons and talismans.

"Well, with the True Fire Talisman, we can burn the seeds and make the Earth Fruit transform for the second time."

Fairy Lingyue also had a look of hope in her eyes.

One thing she didn't tell Xu Taiping was that after the second transformation of the Earth Fruit, she would be able to borrow the power of the Earth Fruit to take her soul one step further, to the point where she could use other people's bodies to perform magical powers.

By then, if she encounters a monster like the tiger monster again, she will be able to crush it.

The reason why I didn't tell Xu Taiping was because I was worried that he would rely too much on me, which would have a negative impact on his future practice.

"Taiping, come, before exchanging the True Fire Talisman, let's take stock of the treasures hidden by this tiger demon. You may be able to find something useful for your practice."

Fairy Lingyue's ghostly soul floated to the side of the pile of treasures, and she pointed towards the treasures with excitement on her face.

…

late at night.

"Six hundred taels of gold, one thousand three hundred taels of silver, two thousand three hundred merit coins, three jade slips for transmitting merits, six magical instruments, eight talismans, and a leather armor made of the hide of the monster fire rhinoceros. In addition to the Shuo Feng Pearl, there are two demon beads.”

After all the things in the tiger demon's mouth were sorted out, Fairy Lingyue glanced at them one by one, with disappointment in her eyes.

To her, the most valuable things here are the few demon pills.

"There is also a map with the location of the three-hundred-year-old Fire Ganoderma."

Xu Taiping handed Fairy Lingyue an animal skin map.

Unlike the monks like Fairy Lingyue who have seen the world, Xu Taiping has never seen so much gold and silver in a long time, let alone a dozen magical weapons worth more than a thousand merit coins. Talisman.

"This Fire Ganoderma should be what the tiger demon left for himself to use for his breakthrough."

Fairy Lingyue took the animal skin map and looked at it.

This animal skin map was very simply drawn, with only a few terrains and the approximate location of the three-hundred-year-old fire ganoderma. It was most likely drawn by the demon tiger himself.

"This location seems to be the valley where I caught up with it that day. Could it be that it ran there just to get this fire ganoderma?"

Xu Taiping couldn't help but feel a little scared.

If he hadn't caught up with it at that time, or if he had caught up a step too late, and let the demon tiger get the fire ganoderma, the final result might be different.

"Is this fire ganoderma useful to me?"

Xu Taiping asked curiously with his big eyes open.

"The medicine is too strong for you. Taking it is not only useless, but harmful, but..."

Fairy Lingyue shook her head first, then frowned, as if she was hesitating whether to mention it.

"But what?"

Xu Taiping asked.

"But it can also be used as a nutrient for earth fruits. If you are lucky, you may be able to breed a treasure that can speed up your cultivation."

Looking at Xu Taiping's eyes full of curiosity, Fairy Lingyue finally decided to tell the truth.

"But the problem is that there is often a fire python guarding the fire ganoderma that is more than 300 years old. If you don't know how to avoid the fire python, it is very dangerous to pick it."

Before Xu Taiping started to be happy, Fairy Lingyue added another sentence.
