I can't be a demon.

Chapter 51: Sure enough, the Jinwu Guards are still wealthy

The mynah bird landed on the courtyard wall and stared at Shen Lian, who was secretly delighted with his unearned gain, as if he was looking at the stupid son of a landlord, his eyes full of contempt.

"Go! Go! Go."

Shen Lian drove the starling away and secretly played with the fruit core.

I have to admit that although the fruit core has a strange style, it can be considered a storage device, even though it only has one cubic meter of space.

"I didn't expect the ability to conceive is so comprehensive."

Shen Lian tried to take it out and ingest it, and found that the energy consumed depended on the size of the object.

"One cubic meter is enough, but the material of the fruit core is relatively fragile. It is easy to be damaged if you carry it with you. Otherwise, you can put it in your stomach..."

Shen Lian shuddered, not daring to imagine the scene of reaching into the stomach to take something out.

Just for a moment, he actually had the urge to swallow the fruit core into his stomach and store it.

After all, he could communicate with strength at any time, which seemed very convenient no matter how he looked at it. But after coming to his senses, Shen Lian slapped himself.

Snapped.

"Take a rope and tie it to the handle of the bone blade. Just be careful on weekdays."

Shen Lian's consciousness swept across the storage space, and the career panel revealed information.

[The "Apricot Blossom Demon" has been triggered, and the necessary conditions are missing and the job cannot be taken.]

"Another special profession. It seems that there is also a demonic internal skill in the fruit core."

Shen Lian was not surprised. To practice internal skills, one needs to visualize pictures of demons. It seems that the Jinwu Guards all have the habit of carrying the fundamental skills with them.

He didn't have to spend much effort to find a palm-sized tree root, at the bottom of which was engraved the demon's internal energy [Chasing Flowers Sutra].

Once one enters the stage of Chasing the Flowers Sutra, the Jinwu Guards will be able to develop the [Apricot Blossom Body] and practice the secret arts of the Illusion Dao.

The Nihuajing is also good at escaping from the shell.

By transplanting blood vessels into the apricot tree, a suspended dead body was created in the heart of the tree, allowing the consciousness to escape when necessary.

Of course, the price is that most of the internal strength is lost.

Shen Lian looked at the visualization picture of the Chasing Flower Sutra.

A half-human, half-demon apricot tree towers into the sky, with branches covered with strange and inexplicable stamens in full bloom, shaped like a woman's face.

"apricot……"

Shen Lian thought for a moment before realizing the demon represented by the Flower-Chasing Sutra.

[Xingxian], a monster transformed from plants, is one of the tree monsters in the 52nd difficulty [Muxianan]. In the original work, he was killed by Zhu Bajie with a rake.

Looking at the entire world of Journey to the West, Xingxian can only be regarded as a supporting role, but his Taoism is definitely not shallow.

Shen Lian naturally looked down on the Xinghua Demon. Firstly, it did not fit his image as a tough guy, and secondly, the magical power she awakened was most likely related to illusion.

"It should take 10 points to get a fourth job, so you have to be careful."

Shen Lian had already guessed that the strange stomach fruit came from the centurion Jinwu guards who had just settled in Yanliang Town. The latter had a special feature on their heads that was similar to apricot flowers.

"Could it be that Bai Hu played with fire and got burned, and was targeted by a highly skilled fish demon?"

"The centurion should still be alive. With the Flower-Driving Sutra, it will be difficult for him to die."

Shen Lian looked at the well in the corner. The remaining demonic energy in it had disappeared, but the claw marks of the fish monster could still be seen on the edge.

"The underground river connects to the tributary of the Bibotan Lake. Do the Jinwu Guards really think that the fish monster is a fool who can come and go at will?"

Shen Lian felt that the fish monster would not give up.

The fish disaster is far from over, last night was just the beginning.

"The large-scale nesting is telling the monsters that Yanliang Town is rich in blood and food."

Fortunately, ordinary baits will not attract fish monsters with too high skills. Shen Lian can use this opportunity to do more good deeds and promote all the corpse Taoists and sharp-toothed warriors as soon as possible.

Shen Lian took out the miscellaneous objects from the fruit core.

All the bottles and jars are empty, as if they once contained powerful medicines, but they had turned into nutrients when the banyan tree was nurturing the elixir fruit.

"Strange Stomach Method?" Shen Lian noticed the secret book of the Jinwu Guards' practice at a glance. He couldn't help but become interested and leaned against the banyan tree to read it.

After he patiently read the entire book, his expression became extremely strange.

The steps of the Different Stomach Method are to refine the special storage magic tool into one's own stomach and intestines. Once it is cultivated, one can no longer eat ordinary food.

[Do you want to spend 10 points to master the different stomach method?]

"Cancel."

Perhaps the secret arts that come with the demon's internal strength have drawbacks, which requires a large amount of points to be consumed on the profession panel, and the cost-effectiveness is really not high.

Shen Lian's huge stomach and nourishing food are the foundation of his life, it is impossible for him to destroy his innate holy body.

"Hehe, the more demonic secrets the Jinwu Guards master, the more inhuman they are. How can they have the ultimate purity of martial arts that I pursue?"

Shen Lian no longer held out hope. It was already good enough that he could obtain a storage magic tool. As a result, he discovered that there was actually a book on horizontal training martial arts inside.

【Reverse Blood Skill】

The Blood Reversal Technique is a superior horizontal training that tempers the blood vessels throughout the body and can purify the blood in the body. When the Blood Reversal Technique is mastered, even if the blood vessels are damaged, they can heal quickly.

That centurion practiced the Blood Reversal Technique in order to cooperate with the Flower-Chasing Sutra's suspended death and resurrection.

Otherwise, every time his own blood vessels are stripped, he will have to rely on powerful medicine to recover from the injuries.

Shen Lian was overjoyed.

The Blood Reversal Technique belongs to the internal martial arts, and because the blood vessels do not involve acupoints, it is far less difficult than the breath-holding method.

"As expected of Master Ba, even when picking up trash, he is still so pure and unworldly."

After Shen Lian sorted out the storage space, apart from the secret manuals on martial arts, the rest were all yellow paper, cinnabar and other things of unknown value.

He examined them one by one and took out three blood-stained copper coins.

[Ghost Copper Plate Appraisal Completed, Nine Qi Earthly Aversion Experience +0.01%]

【Ghost Copper Plate】

[Made by Jinwu Guards, a medium for traveling between the first three levels of the Ghost Market. 】

"nice one!"

Shen Lian couldn't help but let out a strange laugh. The Corpse Transformation Sutra mentioned that the Ghost Market had many layers, but to go deeper one had to constantly experience transactions.

The ghost copper plate is obviously a shortcut that the Jinwu Guards have been researching for many years.

"Unfortunately, a ghost copper coin has lost its function due to identification, but there are two chances to enter and exit the third floor of the ghost market, which is enough to make a lot of money."

If the ghost market opens as usual in the middle of next month, I will take my starling with me to have a look no matter what. Even if the ghost market is on the third floor, the life span of the ransom ghosts is about five hundred years.

Shen Lian emptied the storage space of useless objects and burned them all to ashes.

After he worked hard for a day, the fish fruits were completely ripe. Perhaps it was because the fish monster was very powerful, there were fifteen fruits on the branch.

A faint medicinal fragrance permeates the courtyard.
The starling came over with its wings flapping, gazing at the fish with eager eyes.

Shen Lian used all his strength, moving around the banyan tree, blocking the starling with his left hand and picking fish fruits with his right hand.

"My dear, you can't eat Dan Guo carelessly. It's not easy for you to digest because of your weak body."

"Stupid~"

The starling pecked Shen Lian's head, then landed on the banyan tree and built a bird's nest.

The corner of Shen Lian's mouth twitched. The starling looked like it must not be missed in the future, and it was clearly waiting for the next batch of elixirs.

"You're planting vegetables on this farm and stealing them?"

Shen Lian carefully put the fruit core into the fruit and threw a fish fruit into his mouth.

[Take Fish Fruit, Sharp-toothed Warrior Experience +0.47%]

"After eating all the fish fruits, the sharp-toothed warrior can reach 60%. If the fish monsters are really endless, promotion is only a matter of time."

Shen Lian did not waste nutrients and immediately began to practice the Blood Reversal Technique.
