The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 224 Spiritual Energy Saves the Market
Wang Wu did not rush to leave, but used his passive concealment ability to lurk outside the collapsed entrance of the secret room. He wanted to see who the traitorous snake guard who cruelly tortured Snake Nineteen was.
There was never a moment when he desperately wanted to kill someone.

However, after waiting for a few seconds, the guy did not come. Instead, he waited for the waiter of the restaurant, a group of diners who heard the noise, and onlookers who came from nearby after hearing the news.

"Manager Bai?"

"The shopkeeper?"

There were waiters outside shouting, and many people were talking about it.

"What's going on? What just happened?!"

It seems to be the voice of the tiger demon.

"Oh, it's Butler Tiger. We don't know what happened. Shopkeeper Bai hired the little bear cub and took it to the secret room. A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Shopkeeper Bai has not come out. We didn't dare to ask. Then today there was a loud noise, and the restaurant was almost collapsed. Two of the three protective magic circles were destroyed. Oh, this is definitely a big thing."

"That's right, Chief Butler Tiger and Chief Butler Wolf, you have to think of a way. Maybe there is something wrong with the cultivation of Chief Bai, and he needs your help."

"Okay, everyone, step back, step back. If Shopkeeper Bai really has a problem with his training, it might be dangerous. Don't disturb those masters."

The tiger demon roared and began to dismantle the buildings outside with a crackling sound. It seemed that half of the entire restaurant had collapsed.

Listening to the noise outside, Wang Wu felt something was not right. If the rebellious snake guard did not show up, wouldn't he be regarded as the murderer?

With a "crash!", the tiger demon rushed in first. When he saw the situation in the secret room, he immediately flew back.

"Danger! Stand back, it's poisonous!"

A group of people quickly retreated, but some of them were not afraid. A chicken demon that looked like a phoenix rushed in and shouted, "Oh no! Shopkeeper Bai is dead! Even his body is gone!"

"what!"

"died?"

"Who killed Shopkeeper Bai?"

"Look, is Shopkeeper Bai's belongings still there?"

"Where are its scales?"

"By the way, the fangs of a third-grade demon are good things..."

"Chicken Manager, could it be that you hid it?"

"Shut the fuck up! I just came in and I have nothing!" Chicken Butler was very angry. Although he really wanted to rush in first, how could he just stand by and watch when his fellow Taoist was in trouble?
Inheriting Shopkeeper Bai's legacy and avenging Manager Bai is the right thing to do.

"Bullshit!"

"I think this chicken has shifty eyes and looks like a murderer!" A sinister voice came from the crowd.

"Who! Who is spreading rumors! You idiots, shouldn't there be a little bear cub in this secret room? Where is it!"

"Yes, where is it? It's impossible that the bear is gone alive and dead. All the things that Shopkeeper Bai carried with him, such as snake scales, fangs, and molts, were swept away by it, right?"

"Yes, I think so too. He killed and robbed people. Oh my, Shopkeeper Bai was so kind to take him in, but this evil thief from outside dared to take his life..."

"Everyone, you have to think clearly. That little bear cub is only at the sixth rank, and Manager Bai is at the peak of the third rank. This matter is very strange!"

"Yes, it is very strange. Shamen Village prohibits unwarranted fighting, not to mention such a murder case, which is unheard of. The murderer is really vicious. We have to report it to the master and ask them to do justice."

For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar. Everyone rushed into the secret room and searched it carefully. They shouted for the murderer to be severely punished, but their eyes were afraid of missing even a speck of dust.

Wang Wu also quietly left in the chaos, left the market, and finally appeared in a woods outside the town.

In just a short while, the third-grade transparent demon pill had accumulated more than 20 spiritual energy and more than vitality points for him.

This is a real tonic for him.

At this time, he quickly opened the attribute bar and began to add points frantically.

The first things to add are agility, strength, and defense.

Previously, due to the influence of three evil wind and bone epidemics, his three basic attributes were permanently reduced by 9 points each. Currently, they are all 121 points. According to the rule of adding points, every time he increases by 30 points, there will be a five-fold exponential increase.

Before 90 points, it required 2500 points of spiritual energy to upgrade once, and before 120 points, it required 12500 points of spiritual energy to upgrade once. Now, it requires 62500 points of spiritual energy to upgrade once.

scary!
This actually means that if you don't rely on the advancement of demon pills to improve, relying solely on spiritual energy to forcibly improve is a dead end.

Because the exponential improvement is too abnormal.

Of course, this is not to say that Wang Wu’s attribute column is making things difficult for him, it is not worthy of it, but this is really a dead end, just like the virtual wealth in the financial stock market.

Without a real economy like demon pills, it is a paradox in itself to expect to upgrade infinitely by relying on massive amounts of spiritual energy.

It’s not that spiritual energy has no value, but it requires demon pills, bloodline talent, and spiritual pills to anchor it.

Wang Wu also understood this after he comprehended Snake Nineteen's transparent demon pill.

But at this moment, he really had no choice. It would not be fun to have his spiritual energy explode.

In an instant, the three attributes of agility, strength, and defense increased by +1 each, and more than 18 spiritual energy were consumed at once. At the same time, Wang Wu felt an inexplicable feeling of discomfort.

How to describe it? It's like the entire national economy directly released 18 trillion yuan. It's invisible and intangible, but it makes you feel uncomfortable.

The same thing happened with his body.

This is a sign of being possessed. Fortunately, Wang Wu can still maintain it, and he can land slowly through subsequent steps.

At this moment, he upgraded his self-healing talent from level 15 to level 17 without hesitation.

Heart of the Earth, upgraded from level 5 to level 7.

The Fury talent has been increased from level 6 to level 7.

Health and stamina are all filled up to 8000 points.

The secret skill of endless life was upgraded to level 5, the iron head was upgraded to level 5, the turning point was upgraded to level 5, the gathering of energy was upgraded to level 5, and the swift and decisive action was upgraded to level 5.

In total, 40 points of spiritual energy were directly smashed down.

At this moment, Wang Wu's uncomfortable feeling became even worse.

He is really only one step away from going insane and experiencing an economic collapse.

However, this is still controllable for Wang Wu.

The total amount of spiritual energy in the Tongming Demon Pill is 120 million, and he has currently consumed 55 points. At the same time, the maximum amount of free spiritual energy his body allows to be stored is 20, but this will dissipate after 24 hours.

This is 75, which seems to be far from the total amount of 120 million points.

But the problem is that the crack in Snake Nineteen's third-grade transparent demon pill is not fixed, and it will not leak out crazily at a certain frequency all the time.

Wang Wu's previous crazy addition of points was actually equivalent to a decompression and rescue treatment for the transparent demon pill.

In fact, after he initially transferred 15 points of spiritual energy through the Lingyun Gourd, it was equivalent to the first decompression and rescue treatment for the Tongming Demon Pill.

Before this, under his Five Demon Pill System, the leakage of the Transparent Demon Pill had reached 10000+ per second!

But after that, the leakage of the Transparent Demon Pill once climbed to 12000+ per second, which forced Wang Wu to invest heavily in increasing his position and quickly introduce a large amount of spiritual energy into the three reservoirs of agility, strength, and defense.

This was the second decompression, and the effect was remarkable. The leakage of the Transparent Demon Pill continued to drop to 8000+ per second.

Then, he continued to invest in all the attributes that could be improved.

Since it is an economic crisis, we have to launch some large-scale projects and provide work-for-relief services.

The point is not the project, but to find a temporary way out for the spiritual energy resources.

This is very important.

Therefore, when all the items that could be improved, oh no, the attributes were improved to the limit, the third decompression and rescue plan was successful, and the leakage of the transparent demon pill had continued to drop to 3000+ per second.

Based on the fact that he can currently temporarily accommodate 20 points of free refugee spiritual energy, he can only hold on for about 70 seconds at most.

It sounds short, but it’s actually 70 seconds that saves lives.

Don't forget that he also has a hungry companion magic vine.

Don't forget, he also has a larger reservoir, the inherited soul jade, and currently lacks 50 points of spiritual energy to completely repair it.

Wang Wu didn’t believe in this thing before, mainly because he felt sorry for his spiritual energy and vitality. But this time, the inherited soul jade really helped him a lot.

So he planned to add some dog food to the inheritance soul jade.

Of course, Wang Wu still didn't want to repair it completely.

For him, enough is enough.

At this moment, Wang Wu released the restrictions on the companion magic vine. Just the right amount, twenty thousand vitality points plus thirty thousand spiritual energy were injected into it, which directly triggered the companion magic vine's advancement mode, allowing it to advance from the fifth grade to the fourth grade.

Such a slight decompression directly affected the leakage rate of the Transparent Demon Pill, which dropped directly from 3000+ per second to 2000+ per second.

Afterwards, Wang Wu began to inject spiritual energy into the inherited soul jade.

Taking 50,000 points of spiritual energy as a unit, every time one unit is injected, the leakage of the Transparent Demon Pill will drop by one level.

So in fact, after Wang Wu injected four units into the inheritance soul jade, the leakage of the transparent demon pill had been reduced to 30+ spiritual energy per second, and the vitality value was completely stopped from leaking.

"It's done!"

"The rescue was successful!"

Wang Wu let out a breath, and a huge weight fell from his heart. At this time, less than a minute had passed since Snake Nineteen's death.

He didn't believe that the rebellious snake guard could take any locking and reconnaissance measures against the transparent demon pill in such a short time.

And from now on, he no longer needs to provide maintenance funds for the inheritance soul jade, so it’s better to be cautious and conservative and cut off your dog food!

Afterwards, he transferred all the valuable materials in the two storage bags to one of them, and ordered the companion magic vine to send out a small root to hide somewhere else.

He now has a plan. Snake Nineteen cannot die in vain, and the rebellious snake guards who are targeting him cannot be let go so easily.

As for this moment, he only had to do one thing, which was to upgrade his three seventh-grade Tongqiao Demon Pills in the shortest possible time.

Because everything is really ready, whether it is vitality, spiritual energy, or knowledge reserves, all the requirements have been met.

As long as he upgraded these three Tongqiao Demon Pills, he might be able to further control Snake Nineteen's Tongqiao Demon Pill and then take it for himself.
