Chapter 227 Transformed into an Immortal Species
Chapter 227 Transformed into an Immortal Species
Li Yu held the reward from the "Toad God" in his hand with a complicated expression.
There was a red swelling on his forehead, which was very high and did not go away for a long time.
The good news is that he got a very insidious and useful treasure, the bad news is that this treasure came at a high price.
Not to mention the cost of using it!
Li Yu was injured just by being hit by the "bad luck coin". With his abnormal body, he couldn't get rid of the swelling for a while.
But soon Li Yu smiled again, thinking that the side effects were reasonable even if they had a price.
After all, this kind of strange object that can affect the enemy's fortune is extremely rare.
“Whether it’s the real world, or those terrifying and mysterious realms, or the boundless and endless spiritual world.”
"Fortune is extremely important."
"No matter how powerful a being is, they can die suddenly due to bad luck."
"For example, the old pervert [Xi Wang] is powerful enough, very calculating, and decisive. As soon as he sensed something wrong in the Xianqin Weird Domain, he flipped the table and sacrificed half of his life in exchange for the arrival of a part of the Forbidden God's limbs."
"It's a pity that I was just unlucky. My opponent happened to be me. The Forbidden God thought I was fragrant enough and wanted to taste me slowly. But I reversed the outcome in my last breath."
"If he had better luck, he would have been the winner."
Thinking of this, Li Yu paused.
Immediately, he seemed to have thought of many uses for it, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
"If this thing is in the hands of an ordinary practitioner, its effectiveness will be average."
"But if it falls into my hands, or into the hands of the True Ever-changing God's Chosen, it will be of great use."
"After calculating at the critical moment, cast a spell to destroy the opponent's luck... The backlash afterwards doesn't matter. After all, the dust has settled. Even if the luck is a little worse, it won't be a big deal."
"Wonderful."
"Thank you, Toad God."
Li Yu figured it out and immediately put the bad luck copper coin in his pocket.
It may look like a useless thing, but it is actually a good treasure. Soaking it in the excrement of the Toad God is not a problem at all.
Since he was born into this world, he has encountered things that are ten times more disgusting.
At the same time, Li Yu sighed, "The Toad God is truly a true god who purely loves to have fun," and directly prayed to respond to the conditions He proposed.
Li Yu agreed.
He hesitated at first because he was worried that the Toad God had a big appetite.
If he was forced to accomplish something that was impossible, such as tricking the Lord of Change for the second time, Li Yu felt that this was unlikely.
But now it seems that the Toad God's judging standards are not ridiculously high.
The experience in the mysterious territory of Xian Qin is enough to pass.
You can even get rewards.
Now that there was a "standard case", Li Yu felt relieved and agreed to it with confidence.
The moment he decided to agree to the deal, the void above his head cracked again.
Along with extremely strong and exotic fragrance, a pair of small and exquisite "meat horns" that looked like glazed jelly floated lightly into Li Yu's hands.
This pair of meaty corners is the toad fungus.
Ever since the Kingdom of God came to this world, a wisp of fragrance visible to the naked eye has been permeating the air. If a mortal takes a whiff of it, their lifespan will be extended directly.
Of course, there are costs.
"Eternal Toad Ganoderma, the top-level immortality elixir, is essentially a pair of essence horns left behind after the direct descendants of the Toad God shed their skin."
"If a mortal sniffs the fragrance, his life span will be extended by several months. The price of the poison is that he will be transformed into a toad man and develop a fanatical worship of the toad god."
"Practitioners are also not immune to these side effects when taking the medicine. The toxicity and efficacy of the medicine are completely intertwined and integrated... However, the Spiritual Venerable Path is an exception, otherwise it would not be used as a secret medicine formula."
"The poison of Taiyin marrow turns one into an icy corpse, which dies instantly upon exposure to sunlight, and gives rise to endless worship for Lingying Yuanjun."
"The poison of Agada medicine is minimal, it nourishes the Buddha nature and purifies the six senses."
"After the three medicines are smelted, I will be able to achieve immortality."
When Li Yu finished thinking, the swelling on his forehead also disappeared because of the fragrance of the toad fungus.
Also eliminated was the slight bad luck that came with it.
Immediately, Li Yu took out the Taiyin marrow and Agada medicine that he had harvested earlier.
No one could have imagined that Li Yu could gather the three top-level elixirs of immortality so easily.
Even he himself was sighing at this moment:
"Although the Agada medicine and the Wan Gu Chan Zhi have some costs and tasks, they are not very serious."
"And the Taiyin marrow is almost given away for free."
"This is the benefit of using the backdoor. The three top-level immortality elixirs can almost all be considered as my gains through the backdoor."
"Compared to my predecessors, my luck is indeed incredible."
What made Li Yu come up with this idea was his previous communication with predecessors such as Lu Sheng.
What he saw was the scene of how the predecessors in the Warring States Period were promoted to "Immortal Taoists".
Almost without exception, it's difficult.
Even ordinary pseudo-immortality elixirs, black Tai Sui and mermaid flesh are not easy to obtain.
Senior Lu Sheng, who was promoted to the highest rank, nearly died in a desperate situation in order to obtain the first medicine, the "Immortal Tree".
In comparison, Li Yu felt countless times more relaxed.
All I can say is that time is destiny.
With the three top-grade elixirs of immortality, the other medicines are naturally not a problem. Just mix them in with the supplies and ask the City Lord's Mansion to deliver them.
He is not only a pioneer of the only nine chosen ones, but also the leader of the evil star. In the eyes of the City Lord's Mansion, he is already a "rare commodity and number one seed".
It can be said that he would respond to every request, even going so far as to issue a restriction order to King Xi.
There was no need for Li Yu to embezzle these small amounts of materials.
"Start refining!"
Li Yu suppressed his distracting thoughts and suddenly spoke.
……
About a few hours later, the dilapidated Immortal Fortress was facing a worse situation.
Outside the core cabin, Hongdou's fox eyes were glowing red as they kept scanning and deducing. Under his feet, the small robot was moving back and forth like a real sweeping robot, with the alien fire spirit jumping behind it, and anxious mechanical sounds kept ringing.
"Danger, great danger. The fortress is aging rapidly."
"Emergency situation, emergency situation not included in the Operation Manual..."
The reason why the little robot is so panicked.
It is in that core cabin at this moment that a terrifying force is constantly sweeping out.
It was like a kind of "invisible radiation". Wherever it passed, no matter whether it was a living thing or a dead thing, it seemed as if the "accelerated aging button" was pressed. In an instant, it seemed like ten years had passed.
The Immortal Fortress was already a little rusty after wandering in the spirit world for many years.
Being destroyed like this, it seemed like it would fall apart at any moment.
From the outside, the fortress made of scrap copper and iron hanging in the air was creaking and shaking.
Fortunately, this radiation seems to be some kind of tidal form. When it sweeps out, it accelerates time, and when it sweeps back, it sends back the time that was taken away.
Hongdou was not at all anxious about this magical and strange situation. It was obvious that all her attention was focused on her master Li Yu.
"The master is in the process of being promoted... The goal is to be the fifth level of the spiritual master path [Eternal Taoist]... The secret medicine has been swallowed... The progress is 50%..."
"Invisible radiation related to time and space has been detected, which is speculated to be the energy of immortality... Progress is 70%."
Just as Hongdou was making the deduction, inside the cabin.
Li Yu was also in a critical and special state. His whole body was being pulled by three terrible forces.
The void where they were was also stirred into a vortex of paste by the three forces.
The center point is inside Li Yu's body.
Faintly visible was an eternal and unchanging lunar moon, an immovable toad god that had been crouching for ten thousand years, and an eternal shadow of Buddha... They rotated with each other, entangled and merged, and the radiation generated in the process caused extremely drastic and terrifying changes in Li Yu's body.
He was as old as a corpse one second, and turned into a newborn baby the next.
It is impossible not to feel anything when it comes to such drastic changes in the body.
Extremely intense pain was tormenting Li Yu.
The solution is also very simple.
As long as Li Yu slightly shifted to one side at this moment, the other two radiations filled with divinity would be eliminated immediately.
The cost of doing so is not high.
Although you may fail to be promoted, you will also transform in one direction, or at worst you can jump to another path.
For example, if he prefers the "Eternal Toad Ganoderma", he will be transformed into a toad man who can live for thousands or tens of thousands of years on the spot, and he will also immediately become the chosen one of the Toad God.
In this way, drug poison is no longer considered drug poison.
When he reached this stage of cultivation, Li Yu finally had a vague understanding.
Why the path of spiritual master will gradually disappear.
In addition to the high probability that Ling Zun has died, there are also too many pitfalls in the sequence of this path.
Especially for the "Eternal Taoist", not to mention that it will take a long time to eliminate the poison and complete the promotion ceremony.
There are big pitfalls during the medication stage.
The three kinds of elixirs of immortality can grant different lengths of lifespan, which can easily lead to practitioners unconsciously tending towards the longer-lived side when taking the secret elixir.
In this way, all efforts will be in vain.
One less Taoist priest of immortality and one more practitioner of other paths.
Since the Taoist Changsheng has a trap, it is hard to say whether the next sequence of True Lord Shibai will also have one.
However, these are not problems for Li Yu.
He is completely immune to the temptation of the soul!
He can also withstand physical torture.
It should be noted that his demon body has undergone many transformations and has been blessed by Sister Yi Ge. Its strength is terrifying, comparable to that of a real immortal Taoist.
Another half hour has passed!
As the vortex slowly shrank, the three beams of immortality radiation were condensed into one furnace.
An extremely terrifying scene happened the next moment.
Li Yu's demonic body first turned into rotten bones in an instant, and then began to revive in the next moment.
It is not just the commonly said resurrection of the dead, but a fundamental transformation from the inside out.
In the blink of an eye, a perfect human body that seemed to be made of "jade" appeared in the cabin.
Anyone who takes a glance at this body can tell that it is difficult for it to be worn down by time.
The human race, with an average lifespan of only a few decades, is a truly short-lived species.
But at this moment, Li Yu has become an immortal.
Not only did he easily break through the limitation of a hundred years of lifespan, but he also went all the way to a thousand years of lifespan.
When he slowly opened his eyes, an indescribable feeling of vicissitudes surged up, as if he had witnessed all the changes in this world over the years.
ps: There will be a third update, but it will be a little later.
