Chapter 19 [Xiaoqing promotion]
That night.
After absorbing a newly discovered mass grave, Gu Changsheng decisively chose to advance to Xiaoqing.
Gu Changsheng, the two-part purple fragrance and giant snake gall seized from the two Taoists, were both great things for Xiaoqing.
Xiaoqing's promotion this time is a bit special, and there is a possibility of a small chance of backlash.
When Gu Gu Changsheng needs to defend against foreign enemies, he also has to defend against the small chance of backlash from Xiaoqing.
After putting out all the corpses in the spirit beast bag, the dead bodies lying on the ground were loaded with mass graves, and distributed them within ten feet of the surrounding defense, Gu Changsheng took out the two purple fragrances and giant snake galls from the storage bag.
Although this purple fragrance and giant snake gall are not valuable to Gu Changsheng now, they have not bought anything similar because they are busy practicing and solving the problem of life span of their bodies, so they only have two items on them now.
Looking at Xiaoqing's longing look in front of him, Gu Changsheng hesitated for a moment and threw the two purple fragrances and giant snake galls to Xiaoqing.
Xiaoqing jumped and swallowed the purple fragrance directly into her belly, then slowly swallowed the essence of her giant snake gallbladder.
After looking at Gu Changsheng for the last time, he directly hovered his small body together and fell into a state of promotion.
This time, Xiaoqing's promotion was different from the last time. It was an advancement after reaching a bottleneck, rather than from an ordinary snake to a snake dragon that was about to advance.
It didn't make Gu Changsheng wait for much time before changes began.
Xiaoqing's body now shows a dark red color that was refined by Gu Changsheng, and his eyes are also blood-red.
The first thing that changed this time was the color of the body, which actually had the original blue-black ones before returning to Xiaoqing.
However, the dark red texture is as difficult as stubborn stones, and it can only change back and forth between blue-black and dark red.
Then there is the change in the body.
Gu Changsheng observed the giant snake from a distance when he advanced last time. Although the distance was a bit far, he could still see that the giant snake's body had significantly shrunk.
But at this time, Xiaoqing's body was slowly getting bigger, from the current thickness of his thumb, two feet long, to the thickness of his adult arms, four feet long, and several times larger.
A layer of fine scales also grew on his body, wrapping the oval head that originally had only a few scales, which was a bit similar to the previous giant snake.
However, there has been no bulge of snake horns on his forehead, which makes Gu Changsheng a little worried.
Generally speaking, after this snake is promoted to a snake dragon, most of the snake's horns grow.
However, there are exceptions, but they are all very few examples.
After half an incense stick.
The color of Xiaoqing's body always changes back and forth between blue-black and dark red, and the size of the body is basically fixed to the thickness of the baby's arm, three feet long, which is similar to when Gu Changsheng caught it.
Although Gu Changsheng didn't know how long it would take for Xiaoqing to advance, he thought it would be soon.
At this moment, something happened.
It turned out that during the promotion process, Xiaoqing's body emitted a special smell invisibly, which could make monsters with cultivation within a radius of ten miles and come to block Xiaoqing's promotion.
Especially monsters like Xiaoqing are more eager for the smell emitted by Xiaoqing when she advanced.
The first thing that came was several close-range pythons, both with the thickness of their arms and thighs, but their cultivation level was not more than fifty years old, and they were all blocked by the corpse refining distributed around them.
The zombie has no bones but is good at trapping the enemy. The zombie has a copper-skinned and iron bones but has a stiff body. With the cooperation of the two, it will soon kill the snakes that attracted the first wave.
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng felt a little bleeding in his heart.
In Gu Changsheng's opinion, these snake monsters with cultivation all provide a large amount of raw materials for corpse gas, and it is a waste to kill them so easily.
In addition, he now needs to protect Xiaoqing and cannot be distracted from practicing.
I can only pray in my heart: I will not dissipate the corpse energy emitted from these corpses later.
Some giant wolf, wild boar, boar and other monsters came one after another, but because of their weak cultivation, they were all killed by the corpse refiners one by one.
As time goes by, Xiaoqing's promotion is coming to an end.
The body color gradually turned into a piece of blue-black and a piece of dark red, and it was slowly changing with each other.
The blood-red eyes turned into a blood-red and a blue one.
At the same time.
Xiaoqing also showed signs of backlash against Gu Changsheng's instructions.
Gu Changsheng, who had experience once, quickly fed Xiaoqing's own blood in advance to soothe the backlash.
Gu Changsheng knew that this was only temporary. If he could not improve his own strength, no matter how much he comforted his blood, he would have a backlash.
Xiaoqing, who just advanced, is in a weak period and needs to be supplemented.
The snake monsters and other monsters that were killed by the corpse refining were the best targets for supplementing.
After wandering around and sucking all the essence and blood of these monsters, Xiaoqing slowly twisted her body and returned to Gu Changsheng.
Xiaoqing needed time to absorb and refine the essence and blood of these monsters, so Gu Changsheng took it into the spirit beast bag that had been prepared long ago.
After that, he began to sit cross-legged on the ground and practice.
Feeling the large amount of corpse gas emerging from the corpse of the killed monster, slowly dissipating. After Gu Changsheng issued a warning order to continue to guard the corpse distributed around him, he quickly absorbed and refined it.
As a large amount of corpse energy was absorbed by Gu Changsheng, his dantian was soon filled.
Seeing that the corpse qi outside had not yet been absorbed, Gu Changsheng continued to absorb and refine it. Until the true qi was about to burst the dantian, he stopped absorbing it reluctantly, allowing the small half of the corpse qi to slowly dissipate.
Good and misfortune depend on each other.
Although he did not absorb all the corpse qi, he had just entered the seventh level of Qi training and further improved his cultivation level.
At the same time, as the yin attribute true qi refined from corpse qi increases, the erosion on Shen Bei's body is slowly becoming stronger.
If it wasn't for the next refining time, Gu Changsheng would want to do a second refining immediately.
Although there are many monsters killed this time, they are not as harmful as the rat spirits they killed before, but they also allow Gu Changsheng to obtain a small amount of yellow light spots.
Gu Changsheng felt that his life span was slowly decreasing under the erosion of a large amount of true qi, and he did not care about these yellow light spots that had not been found for the time being.
There are still six days left before the next refining. When the dantian is full of true qi, there is no need to absorb the corpse energy. Gu Changsheng stayed in this mass grave for the time being.
On the one hand, wait for Xiaoqing to recover her strength and track the rat to advance;
On the other hand, some powerful monsters nearby have been killed, providing him with a relatively safe environment for his next refining body.
After dawn, Xiaoqing had digested the essence and blood in her body and successfully passed the weak period after the promotion.
However, after becoming a snake dragon, the direction of promotion was something Gu Changsheng did not expect.
But it is reasonable to think about it.
Xiaoqing advanced to its most powerful blood poison before.
If it was said that it could only threaten the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage before, then Xiaoqing's small amount of blood poison can now poison him to death.
But the specific effect remains to be seen.
The promotion of tracking rats was also completed in one day and one night. It may be because of the lack of blood before tracking rats. After swallowing the essence and blood of rats with more than 40 years of cultivation, it only barely improved itself to a small monster with 10 or 20 years of cultivation.
Despite this, the scent of the tracking rats has greatly increased, and it can help to find some medicinal materials or treasures within a hundred feet of meter through the smell in the air.
Gu Changsheng gained a lot of low-level herbs and spiritual fruits, and immediately made him fall in love with tracing rats even more.
......
Six days passed in a flash.
Finally, Gu Changsheng's second refining of his body was ushered in.
When that inhuman pain came again, Gu Changsheng completely abandoned the others and endured them wholeheartedly.
However, the famine he experienced in his early years, the death of his relatives, and the five-year career in corpse-touching at the mass grave allowed Gu Changsheng to develop a strong will that is comparable to that of a person. This is the key to his ability to survive this kind of pain.
Otherwise, it would be great if this kind of pain that is so painful that it is like to bear it, not to mention that it would be a good thing for ordinary people to be crazy.
However, Gu Changsheng had to stamp the blood talisman on his body's skin on his body, which shows his perseverance.
What is slightly different from the first refining is that in addition to quietly absorbing the moonlight scattered in the sky, it also absorbs a small amount of yellow light spots.
The second time he refined his body was very successful, and it also consumed more than a month's life, which increased by about one third from the previous month.
This is based on Gu Changsheng's body adapting to the Yin-attribute true qi refined from the corpse qi, and resisting the erosion caused by some Yin-attribute true qi to the body.
If this continues, I am afraid that his life span will not last the day he will refine himself into a blood corpse.
Not all bad news.
The body has also been strengthened a lot after the second refining.
The most direct feeling is that his realm is completely solidified in the middle stage of the seventh level of Qi training.
In order to achieve this level of cultivation, he needed to polish his level well.
But the second time the body was refining made the body stronger, which directly omitted the step of polishing the cultivation level.
This allowed Gu Changsheng to see a shortcut to quickly improve his cultivation.
If he had predicted that it was not wrong, there were seven refinings before he could directly and completely transform into a blood corpse. Perhaps by that time, his cultivation level could also be improved to the eighth or ninth level of Qi training.
Another discovery is that the true qi used this time is a little more than the first time.
It is estimated that the body after being enhanced, it will consume more energy after refining again.
The first time I used 70% of the true qi, and the second time I still used 70% of the true qi, which seemed to be quite similar, but it increased because of the increase of Gu Changsheng's total true qi.
In this way, this is imperative to increase cultivation.
Otherwise, in the end, if there is no problem with the body's refining, there is no true qi in the dantian to refine the body, which will be embarrassing.
So, Gu Changsheng then began to search for mass graves and monsters.
At the same time, I also found some low-level herbs and spiritual fruits by tracking the rat's nose on the road. Although they are not worth much, they are quite considerable when they accumulate little.
Gu Changsheng intentionally began to train his tracing rats, and along the way, he fed all the elixirs or spiritual fruits that were useful for tracing rats into his stomach.
But what went against my wish was that the cultivation level of tracking rats increased very slowly. After feeding a large number of spiritual herbs and spiritual fruits, the cultivation level was only increased by twenty or thirty years, and the scope of the treasures that can be traced to heaven and earth has increased.
Gu Changsheng knew that only the essence and blood of similar monsters could greatly improve the tracking rats.
But this mouse is originally a low-end existence in the food chain. It is more difficult to become a monster than other types of animals, so it is difficult to find it, so you can only try your luck.
