Mushroom Man

Chapter 195 Initial Stage of the Third Reincarnation, A Legendary Immortal (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
hum-

A buzzing sound rang in Wu Liang's ears.

Then came the sound of rushing water.

He was in a daze, fragmented memories flashing through his mind one after another.

He saw the vast, boundless, and turbulent sea.

He saw a three-masted ship with a blood-red skull and crossbones flag flying high, sailing freely across the sea.

The boy who appeared in my memory before was covered in blood and stood on the deck.

“Master, you are getting old. There is no longer a ship in the North Sea that can carry you.”

The boy grinned, his face contorted with rage, his eyes fixed on Wu Liang.

No, to be precise, it was a direct gaze upon the Blood River Ancestor.

"You traitorous disciple, how dare you betray me?!"

Blood River Ancestor roared, his voice hoarse and revealing a hint of weakness.

At this moment, he was completely different from the man who had worked with hundreds of fishermen to refine mushrooms.

He was no longer the arrogant and spirited person he once was.

At this moment, compared to the young man, the Blood River Ancestor was more like a spoiled dog, capable only of impotent rage and hysterical shouting.

"Hahaha!"

"betray?!"

Upon hearing this, the boy couldn't help but burst into laughter, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Master, isn't this what you taught your disciple?"

“You once said that we, the villains of the demonic path, should regard all living beings as food and drink and should not have any unnecessary emotions.”

"The strong are respected, and the weak should die."

“When you took me as your disciple, Master, in order to sever my thoughts, you did not hesitate to turn my parents into cold-blooded mushrooms in front of me and make them your disciple’s natal mushrooms.”

“From that time on, Master, you should have known this day would come.”

"After all, how could a cold-blooded person care about the bond between master and disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Blood River Ancestor's face turned ugly, and he began to curse loudly.

"Damn you, you little beast! If I had known this would happen, I should have made my move sooner and turned you into a blood embryo!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man let out a cold snort.

"Blood fetus, I want to see who between us, master and disciple, will end up as a blood fetus!"

"Disciple Yuan Tu, please, Master, go to your death!"

"Immortal Path Killing Move - Blood Feud!"

The next moment, an endless sea of ​​blood, blotting out the sky, spread out instantly.

Blood River Ancestor's pupils shrank sharply, and without a second thought, he transformed into a streak of blood and fled thousands of miles away.

"Damn it, that little beast used some kind of trick to become an immortal without my knowledge."

"Now that I am seriously injured, I must not fall into the hands of this little beast, otherwise I will suffer a fate worse than death."

"Escape, we must escape, we can't stay in Beihai any longer..."

The Blood River Ancestor was both shocked and furious, and fled in panic.

And, coincidentally, the direction he was heading was the Western Regions.

……

"call……"

"I never imagined that the reason why Blood River Ancestor, a mushroom immortal from the North Sea, would come to the Western Regions was because he was being chased by his disciple."

After digesting the fragment of memory, Wu Liang shook his head, quite disdainful of it.

So it seems that this Blood River Ancestor isn't all that great.

A dignified mushroom master was actually defeated by the apprentice he had personally trained.

This is truly a case of "teaching the apprentice can lead to the master's starvation."

If it were him, he would never be as foolish as the Blood River Ancestor, leaving no room for maneuver.

Given his personality, he would definitely plant some kind of seed in the boy's body as a precaution.

Just like how Abbot Shanren planted the mushroom poison in him back then.

Of course, this fragment of memory was too scattered to tell whether the Blood River Ancestor had planted any methods on that boy.

However, judging from the later experiences of the Blood River Ancestor, even if he had some methods, they probably wouldn't have worked.

"This young man named Yuan Tu is quite interesting..."

"To be able to force the Blood River Ancestor to flee to the Western Regions, he must be a prodigy."

"I estimate that his deeds will be circulated in Beihai, and perhaps we can inquire about them then."

"However, tens of thousands of years have passed. Even if Yuan Tu was exceptionally talented, he would probably have turned to ashes by now..."

Wu Liang had a flurry of thoughts, but he quickly suppressed them and instead focused on summarizing his gains.

By digesting these fragments of memory, he not only learned a secret from back then, but also obtained the recipe for three Bloodway Mushrooms.

These three blood-path mushrooms are a fifth-tier Blood Battle Mushroom, a third-tier Blood Loss Mushroom, and a fourth-tier Blood Escape Mushroom.

The fifth-tier Bloodbath Mushroom has a very simple function: it allows the Mushroom Master to become stronger the more they fight, and the more blood they bleed, the higher their amplification becomes.

Unfortunately, this mushroom is at level five, which is far beyond his current ability to refine.

However, if the opportunity arises, this mushroom could be sold to the Mushroom Master.

Those demonic mushroom masters who cultivate the path of blood would probably be very interested in this mushroom.

As for the three-stage Blood-Depleting Mushroom, Wu Liang could use it, but he couldn't afford to refine it.

This mushroom requires a type of substrate called Scarlet Stone.

However, tens of thousands of years later, this scarlet stone seems to have become extinct.

Even if Wu Liang wanted to practice, there was nowhere for him to do so.

The purpose of this mushroom is to cause sepsis, which is not very meaningful to him, so there is no need to worry about it too much.

As for the Blood Escape Mushroom, it was the mushroom that Wu Liang was most interested in this time.

This mushroom allows the mushroom master to transform into a blood-red aura for escape or pursuit of enemies.

Abbot Shanren had previously used this mushroom; it was extremely fast, and because it transformed into blood, it could also become immune to some common attacks. If Wu Liang could refine this mushroom, his life-saving methods would undoubtedly be taken to a whole new level.

"Unfortunately, this time the memory fragments did not resolve the hidden dangers of the bloodline."

"It seems that the hidden dangers I have cannot be eliminated in the short term."

"Even so, we can only speed things up and leave Bajiao Mountain as soon as possible."

"I've been here for so long, I'm afraid that bad guy will come knocking on my door soon."

Wu Liang took a deep breath and then left the Demon Suppression Tower.

The next day.

Today is the last day before the storm arrives.

Tomorrow, Wu Liang will help Morobi unify the Black Horn Tribe as agreed.

Therefore, Wu Liang dared not slack off in the slightest, and took advantage of this last day to wholeheartedly cultivate his dantian.

"I have a feeling that I will break through the barrier today and become a third-level mushroom master."

Wu Liang sat cross-legged inside the tiger-skin tent and began to swallow the silver liquid.

The next moment, his mind sank into his dantian, urging his true energy to break through the barrier.

The silvery river of true energy roared and surged toward the mist that imprisoned the dantian.

The fog is very stubborn; even if it is temporarily dispersed, it will quickly return to its original state.

However, Wu Liang was not discouraged at all. Instead, he was inspired to fight and relentlessly pushed his true energy river through the fog without stopping for a moment.

He refined each drop of silver liquid as if it were free, replenishing his true energy.

Ten drops of silver water, a hundred drops of silver water...

Unbeknownst to him, Wu Liang had consumed a full three hundred drops of silver water.

The so-called mist, under the frenzied scouring of the true energy river, finally faded away and dissipated.

The dissipated mist merged into the river of true energy, gradually tinging the originally silvery true energy with a pale gold hue.

As everyone knows, when a mushroom master advances to the third level, their silver true energy will transform into light gold true energy.

Once the pale gold true qi is refined to the golden true qi, it can be called the peak of the third stage.

"It's done..."

Seeing this, Wu Liang, who was highly focused, breathed a sigh of relief.

The transformation of true qi indicates that the barrier has been broken, and the next step is to finish up.

The river of true energy roared and surged, continuously dismantling the mist.

More and more mist merged into the river of true energy, resulting in more and more silver true energy, which gradually transformed into pale gold true energy.

In no time, a golden halo appeared in Wu Liang's dantian.

Strands of pale golden true energy fell onto the soil and began to nourish the dantian.

The dantian was stimulated, and a booming sound rang out!
Eleven mu, twelve mu, thirteen mu...

Originally only ten acres in size, Wu Liang's dantian rapidly expanded as he broke through the barrier.

Before long, the abundant dantian swelled to the size of fifteen acres.

Wu Liang's aura surged suddenly!
Thus, the initial stage of the third transformation is complete!
"Now I'm a level 3 mushroom master."

Wu Liang's lips curled up slightly, and he was in a great mood.

Looking across the four continents of the mushroom industry, a third-level mushroom master can already be considered a pillar of the industry.

Even in some small families and forces, with his status as a third-level mushroom master, he could be treated as an honored guest, or even an elder or a senior advisor.

All in all, Wu Liang cultivated for less than half a year, and went from a lowly first-level mushroom master to a third-level mushroom master who could be respectfully addressed as "Master".

This speed is undeniably fast.

If others knew, they would probably be shocked.

It should be noted that even for a genius with a first-grade dantian, it takes about a year to cultivate to the third stage.

As for those mediocre talents, they may never even reach the third level in their entire lives.

Wu Liang has reached this point in just a few months, which shows how outrageous it is.

His current level of cultivation is entirely due to his own hard work.

The relic mushrooms that helped him quickly improve his cultivation were the result of his efforts.

Otherwise, he might not have reached the third stage so quickly.

"Known from an early age..."

Wu Liang opened his mouth and suddenly uttered a sound.

Clearly, he wanted to compose a poem to express his joy.

However, he had barely opened his mouth when he saw the blue chrysanthemum tremble slightly and emit a light.

hum-

The familiar tinnitus sound echoed in my ears once again.

Seeing this, Wu Liang had no choice but to swallow back the poem that had just come out.

A vibrant array of colors suddenly bursts forth before your eyes.

One by one, little figures emerged from all directions, babbling and cooing.

"Hahaha, good time!"

"Are you little rascals congratulating me on reaching the third stage of cultivation?"

Wu Liang smiled and spoke, then with practiced ease, he grabbed a small figure with a casual grab.

The little boy chuckled and spoke!
"Listen to me, listen to me..."

“In the past there was an immortal named Zhao Longxiang.”

"He is hailed as a legendary immortal who specializes in the cultivation of strength."

"Zhao Longxiang has a sixth-rank immortal mushroom called the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Mushroom."

"This mushroom was obtained through the refinement of the White Elephant Giant Strength Mushroom after its third transformation."

"Three-stage White Elephant Giant Mushroom, four-stage Dragon Elephant Giant Mushroom, five-stage Primordial Elephant Giant Mushroom, six-stage Divine Elephant Prison Suppressing Mushroom!"

"It is said that the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Mushroom hides a secret that can overpower all immortals and is unparalleled in the world..."
