Mushroom Man

"Um……"

Wu Liang frowned slightly, as if he had sensed something.

He was both happy and worried at the same time.

Fortunately, Xiao Chusheng did not reveal the mushroom himself under the influence of the deceptive mushroom.

The invisible hand that the mushroom had transformed into had already seized a certain mushroom within his dantian.

What worries him is that forcibly seizing other people's mushrooms is more difficult than he imagined.

Even though Xiao Chusheng is now dead and has no will to resist forcibly taking the mushroom, the mushroom's transformation level is higher than his cultivation level and the mushroom's quality is higher than his.

Therefore, the process of forcibly seizing it was extremely difficult, and it consumed a great deal of true energy, which was truly time-consuming and laborious.

For Wu Liang, the consumption of true energy was no big deal, since the silver water was plentiful and could be replenished at any time.

What really bothered him was that it took too much time.

At this rate, he fears he won't be able to extract all the mushrooms before Xiao Chusheng's dantian collapses.

"That's all..."

"if I get it I am lucky, but if not, it is fate."

"Take as much as you can, and prioritize taking out the fungi that form the unpredictable nature of human hearts and the rare Yu Dao fungi from them."

Wu Liang took a deep breath, and with a hint of impatience, he immediately channeled more true energy towards Qiangqu Mushroom.

The invisible hand, under its influence, became increasingly powerful.

Before long, a mushroom that looked like mud and was covered in dirt appeared—it was actually a four-turn mushroom!
Wu Liang glanced at him and immediately recognized him.

"A mushroom that harbors filth and grime?"

Upon seeing this, Wu Liang's eyes lit up.

The wonderful uses of this mushroom are self-evident.

Xiao Chusheng's survival to this day is largely thanks to this mushroom.

Unexpectedly, the first mushroom they captured was a life-saving mushroom of extremely high value.

Without a doubt, this is a great start!

Wu Liang refined it instantly and then stored it in his dantian, immediately continuing to seize more mushrooms.

Less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea has passed, and Xiao Chusheng's dantian has already begun to collapse.

At the current rate, he probably only has about ten chances left to activate the Mushroom Stealing skill.

And this time does not include refining the silver water and replenishing true energy.

Therefore, he had to keep working non-stop and concentrate fully in order to harvest as many mushrooms as possible before his dantian completely collapsed.

About half an hour later...

The ripples on the River of Oblivion finally subsided.

The soul-possessed flea resurfaced, its soul now a blank slate, all memories washed away.

These fragments of memory all transformed into clusters of light, awaiting Wu Liang's favor.

If Wu Liang can digest all these memories, with Xiao Chusheng's talent in the Dao of the Universe, he might be able to gain another apprentice in the Dao of the Universe.

Meanwhile, Wu Liang's acquisition of the mushrooms was also nearing its end.

Perhaps it was because his true energy and physical strength had been greatly depleted.

Wu Liang's face was deathly pale, and sweat beaded on his forehead as he continued to forcefully extract the mushroom.

Just then, he took out a three-stage mushroom...

"boom!"

An imperceptible sound was heard.

Xiao Chusheng's dantian could no longer hold on and shattered completely!
In an instant, the mushrooms that had not yet been removed from his body were destroyed along with his dantian.

"Phew, it's over..."

Wu Liang let out a long sigh, not feeling any regret. The mushrooms that had shattered along with his dantian were the leftover trash after he had picked and chosen them.

All the mushrooms that were truly useful to him and of high value had already been taken out.

There are a total of eleven mushrooms: five four-stage mushrooms and six three-stage mushrooms.

Don't be fooled by the fact that there are only five level-four mushrooms. In fact, this is a huge sum of money that most level-four mushroom masters would be envious of, or even go crazy for!

It should be noted that many fourth-tier cultivators may only have one fourth-tier natal mushroom.

Xiao Chusheng has so many fourth-tier mushrooms, not including the one-time fourth-tier life-saving mushrooms he was forced to consume when facing the twin dragons.

Without a doubt, this can be described as being extremely wealthy.

It can only be said that he truly deserves to be called the successor of the Formless lineage; his wealth is indeed substantial.

Of course, Wu Liang is also quite wealthy.

After all, there are still more than nine thousand fifth-rank Demon-Suppressing Iron Chain Mushrooms inside the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

However, Wu Liang cannot use these mushrooms at the moment, and he has nowhere to sell them.

Otherwise, even if all the unseen successors were combined, they probably wouldn't be as wealthy as him.

“I made a lot of money this time!”

"It seems my strength is about to make another leap forward."

Wu Liang casually spread out his hands, and then arranged all eleven mushrooms in front of him.

Because of the time constraint, he didn't have time to examine the mushrooms closely after taking them out.

Now we can finally stop and properly take stock of the legacy Xiao Chusheng left him.

Wu Liang's eyes flickered, landing first on the five fourth-stage mushrooms.

Although his cultivation level is currently at the third stage, it is too difficult for him to activate the fourth-stage mushrooms. However, these mushrooms are the rarest and he will be able to use them sooner or later. Their value is much higher than those third-stage mushrooms.

Of these five four-stage mushrooms, three are Yu Dao mushrooms and two are Bian Dao mushrooms.

They are...

Hollow mushroom, gap mushroom, wormhole mushroom, imagination mushroom, impression mushroom.

The Void-Breaking Mushroom needs no introduction; its wonderful uses are obvious to all.

For Wu Liang, although activating this mushroom consumed a great deal of energy and made him less agile than Xiao Chusheng, it was still a life-saving trump card.

Without prior warning, even a being like the Golden Dragon King couldn't stop the Sky-Piercing Mushroom.

As for the Gap Mushroom, its effect is to allow the mushroom master to create a crack or fissure in an object, ignoring all defenses.

Previously, Xiao Chusheng used this mushroom in combination with other mushrooms to create a deadly move that could cut through space.

There are two wormhole mushrooms in total, one mother mushroom and one daughter mushroom.

The mushroom master can place two mushrooms in two different locations to create temporary cavities in the universe.

The mushroom grower enters from the mother mushroom side and exits from the daughter mushroom side.

Similarly, the mother mushroom can be reached instantly from the daughter mushroom.

If used properly, this mushroom could bring Wu Liang unimaginable convenience.

Logically speaking, if Xiao Chusheng possessed this mushroom and had set up a proper passage, the Dragon Palace might not have been able to trap him, so why did he die tragically here?

However, he can't be entirely blamed; after all, who could have imagined that the Dragon Palace beneath the sea would be so terrifying...

Wu Liang shook his head and focused his gaze on the Imagination Mushroom and the Impression Mushroom.

Clearly, these two mushrooms, like the illusory mushroom and the superficial mushroom in his hand, all originated from the Wuxiang lineage.

However, the Wuxiang inheritance that Wu Liang obtained only mentioned the names of these two mushrooms, without mentioning their specific functions.

If he wants to know the true purpose of these two mushrooms in order to construct the idea that human nature is unpredictable, he will probably need to digest Xiao Chusheng's memories before he can understand it completely.

Wu Liang wasn't in a hurry. The cooked duck was already in his mouth; people's hearts are fickle and will eventually be used to his advantage! (End of Chapter)
