Mortal Bones

"Xiao Taiping, the next thing is very important, please listen carefully."

She then looked at Xu Taiping with a serious face.

"good."

Xu Taiping collected the seeds and looked equally serious.

"The seeds after the second transformation of the Ksitigarbha fruit can produce three gourd fruits. Each one is bred by absorbing the spiritual essence of this land. At worst, it will be a spiritual treasure. As for the three gourd fruits What kind of treasure is it depends on what kind of nourishment you provide it.”

Fairy Lingyue explained to Xu Taiping very carefully.

"For example, that Shuo Feng Bead we got earlier?"

Xu Taiping immediately thought of the Shuofeng Bead he had snatched from the tiger demon.

"That's right."

Fairy Lingyue nodded and continued:

"This Shuofeng Bead has offensive magic power in itself, so after the Ksitigarbha Fruit absorbs it, it will also breed an offensive magic weapon."

"In addition, if gold, silver and jewelry are used as nutrients, the gourd of Ksitigarbha fruit will breed spiritual objects similar to spiritual crystals, but many times stronger than spiritual crystals. This is exactly what I need now, so this A gourd fruit, I ordered it from you first."

"no problem."

Xu Taiping agreed without thinking.

"Then there is only one last gourd left."

Fairy Lingyue smiled, and then looked at Xu Taiping seriously again.

"According to what you said, Sister Lingyue, if I put weapons and other magical weapons as nutrients, will they also give birth to weapons and other treasures?"

Xu Taiping asked.

"That's right."

Fairy Lingyue nodded happily when she saw that Xu Taiping understood everything with just one click.

"But you currently don't have weapons suitable for use as Ksitigarbha fruit nutrients. Using ordinary weapons as nutrients rashly will only waste a gourd fruit."

She then reminded Xu Taiping.

"I see."

Xu Taiping nodded slightly.

"What I urgently need now is a treasure that can help me speed up my practice. If I use the Fire Ganoderma on the tiger demon map as nourishment, will the Ksitigarbha Fruit be able to give birth to a similar treasure?"

He then asked Fairy Lingyue.

Weapons are important, but what he needs to improve most now is his cultivation speed. Because of the shackles of mortal bones, his cultivation speed is even slower than some white spirit bones.

"You are right. If you want to breed a treasure that can speed up your cultivation, using three-hundred-year-old Fire Ganoderma to provide nutrients is indeed a good choice."

Fairy Lingyue first agreed with Xu Taiping's statement, then frowned and said, "But the problem is, you have to risk encountering the fire python to pick that fire Ganoderma."

"Sister Lingyue, do you think this fire Ganoderma is worth my risk?"

Xu Taiping immediately understood what Fairy Lingyue meant, so he confirmed it to her.

"With three hundred years of Fire Ganoderma as nutrients, the treasures bred from it will at least allow you, Taiping, to reach the Qi Refining Stage before the selection of the Seven Peaks, which is what you call the Great Opening Realm. It may even allow you to break through the Foundation Building Stage."

Fairy Lingyue said.

The so-called foundation-building period is actually the Wangyou Realm, but this is what Fairy Lingyue said in the practice world. Xu Taiping has long understood this.

"If so, I'm willing to take the risk."

Xu Taiping thought carefully and then replied.

Through more than half a year of practice, he has a very good understanding of the speed of Bai Linggu's practice. If he wants to reach the Great Opening Realm or break through to the Wangyou Realm, five years may be considered short.

However, the Seven Peaks Selection takes place every three years. If his cultivation level does not improve significantly, he may not be able to pass, and then he will have to wait another three years or even six years.

"In that case, wait until you get the Fire Ganoderma and then plant this Earth Fruit Gourd Seed."

Seeing Xu Taiping's firm attitude, Fairy Lingyue no longer objected.

She actually admired Xu Taiping's personality of taking risks and seeking opportunities.

In the world of cultivation, most of the so-called opportunities are obtained by the monks themselves, and only a few rely on luck and family rewards.

…

December, the first day of the lunar month, is suitable for outings and hunting, but avoid quarrels.

Xiling Mountain, entrance to Zhuxi Valley.

"Gulong Gulong..."

In a bush, Xu Taiping drank the last sip of water in his water bag, and then looked into the valley again.

I saw that in the bamboo valley, there were luxuriant grasses and strange flowers in full bloom. From time to time, there would be a faint fragrance carried by the wind.

However, the most eye-catching thing in this valley is the fire-patterned python entrenched by the stream.

The scales of this giant python are as red as fire, and its body is as thick as a bucket. With just one breath and one breath, it can disturb the airflow in the valley and make the surrounding trees sway.

In addition, the fire Ganoderma lucidum protected by the fire pattern in the middle is also particularly eye-catching.

"Taiping, how old are you?"

Fairy Lingyue's voice suddenly sounded in Xu Taiping's mind.

She is possessed by the Ksitigarbha fruit. As long as Xu Taiping carries the Ksitigarbha fruit with him, she can communicate with Xu Taiping's soul.

"The fifth day."

Xu Taiping whispered.

"It's the fifth day. It's almost time for the fire pattern python to get up and eat. Then you can take the opportunity to get the fire Ganoderma lucidum."

Fairy Lingyue whispered.

"Um."

Xu Taiping nodded secretly.

He had already understood before coming here that monster beasts are different from human monks. They cannot support their monster bodies without eating, and this is also the weakness of most monster beasts.

"Hua La La!"

At this moment, there was a sound of branches shaking in the Bamboo Valley ahead.

Xu Taiping used his true energy to improve his eyesight and took a closer look. He found that the Fire Pattern Python, which had been lying on the ground motionless, suddenly raised its head, looked around vigilantly, and began to crawl slowly along the ground.

"It's going to leave the valley."

Fairy Lingyue reminded Xu Taiping with a very happy tone.

"Yeah, I saw it too."

Xu Taiping nodded and responded in his heart, then pulled up the hood of his cloak, tightened the cloth covering his face, and prepared to take action.

The clothes he was wearing now were completely pieced together from the tiger demon's treasures. Among them, this cloak had the effect of simply hiding the body, which happened to be useful this time.

"Don't worry, I'll help you hide your body, so you don't have to worry about it discovering your breath. It's not too late to take action after it completely leaves the valley."

Fairy Lingyue's voice sounded again.

One of the reasons why Fairy Lingyue agreed to Xu Taiping's adventure this time was that she could use her soul to help Xu Taiping hide his breath because of her previous retreat. Otherwise, how could a monster of the level of the Fire Pattern Python allow them to lurk in its territory for five days?

"Well, I understand."

Xu Taiping was naturally not so impatient. He just lay in the same place for five days and was a little worried that his body would become sluggish later, so he moved his legs and feet a little.

"Hua La La..."

Just then, the Fire Pattern Python finally stopped looking around vigilantly, but quickly crawled out of the valley and disappeared outside the valley in the blink of an eye.

"You can start now. This Fire Pattern Python has a short hunting time."

Fairy Lingyue's voice sounded again in Xu Taiping's mind.
