Starting with the titmouse, seventy-two transformations

Chapter 352 Great Harvest, Beggar Version of Tu Xingsun

"With the talent 'Earth Spirit', one can move freely underground like Tu Xingsun, and with the talent 'Inch of Light', one can break through the seal restrictions."

In this way, we won't encounter the awkward situation where Tu Xingsun is countered by spells like "Turning Stone into Gold" and "Turning Earth into Steel"...

Liu Sheng withdrew his gaze, exhaled a heavy breath, and felt much better.

This wave was very successful; not only were the ambushing enemies wiped out, but a new great demon avatar was also obtained, along with a new life-saving technique.

It will be impossible for anyone to deal with him in the same way he killed the groundhog, using the principle of the five elements' mutual restraint.

With the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth all present, he has automatically mastered the Five Elements Escape Technique.

From now on, he can come and go freely wherever the Five Elements are present.

If the enemy wants to besiege him, they can only use more unconventional methods, such as magnetic fields, blood, corpses, bones, and other niche techniques.

However, he is not afraid of encountering them, since he can refine one more avatar with each breakthrough in his cultivation.

Then, I can refine a few more niche avatars such as Yuan Magnet, Corpse, Bone, and Blood, and then I can proudly say, "There is no place in the world that I cannot go."

However, this talent of "storing grain" seems a bit useless in retrospect.

After all, a martial arts master, once he cultivates to the Visceral Realm, can go without food or drink for several days. Some who have practiced "Turtle Breathing Technique" or "Camel Hump Technique" can go without food or drink for ten days or half a month without being affected.

Once a Qi cultivator enters the Dao, they can practice breath control and abstain from grains for several months.

This talent for "storing grain" does seem somewhat superfluous.

However, this talent is only useful if one enters dangerous ruins where spiritual energy is suppressed and there is no place to resupply.

This is a divine skill for exploring ruins.

"Anyway, there's no limit to the number of talent buffs, so I can keep them. Or I can use them as a backup when I fuse talents in the future..."

Liu Sheng twisted his neck, putting the matter aside for the time being. He looked up, about to speak to Du Bingyan, when a black wind suddenly swept into the cave.

With a whooshing sound, Black Wind rolled on the spot and transformed into the shape of Black Wind Bear, carrying several storage bags in its hands.

This guy was previously assigned by Liu Sheng to clean up the battlefield, and he retrieved all of Yue Shan's and the others' storage bags.

The main reason is that he can move like the wind at incredible speed, making him perfect for errands.

Errand Bear!
"That monkey was too fierce. It took me a long time to find these storage bags from the minced meat and mud."

"Only I, Old Bear, have the Black Wind skill; I sifted through that entire area. Otherwise, I really might not have been able to find it."

Black Wind Bear rambled on and on, secretly praising the Long-Armed Demon Ape, then went on to praise it at length, saying that it hadn't lost its temper when it killed, and had been careful not to smash all the storage bags...

In short, it wants to complain behind someone's back, but is afraid of being beaten up afterward, so it chirps a couple of times and says a couple of nice things, highlighting its contradiction and its fickle nature.

Liu Sheng didn't bother with it. In any case, although his avatars were all projections of his mind, they each had their own personalities.

There's no need to worry about any unpleasantness arising between us.

He waved his hand, greeted Du Bingyan, and rummaged through all the storage bags, suddenly finding a large pile of things in the cave.

Half an hour later, Liu Sheng finished counting all the storage bags and thoroughly examined all the old items.

Having harvested a little over 70,000 spiritual essence points, it solved my immediate problem. Now I have a total of over 160,000, which is close to 170,000 spiritual essence points.

In addition, the biggest gain was the various martial arts manuals.

It includes more than twenty martial arts manuals, including genuine skills such as "Blazing Sun Blade Technique", "Dragon-Prisoner Staff Technique", "White Bone Mighty Technique", "Mysterious Dark Poison Dragon Path", and "Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Fist".

In particular, the three books, "Blazing Sun Blade Technique," "White Bone Mighty Technique," and "Mysterious Nether Poison Dragon Path," provided more than 40,000 spiritual energy points.

However, there were relatively few weapons and magical treasures, because... most of them were shattered by the demonic ape incarnation.

However, he found a top-grade spiritual weapon-level long staff in Xiao Mo's storage bag, which he loved.

It's probably due to the influence of the demonic ape incarnation.

Then there were talismans, pills, and various other miscellaneous items, all providing a wealth of spiritual energy. The only regret was that this guy, the Earth Rat, had filled his storage bag with all sorts of spirit rice and spirit grains, and even some spirit iron to use as a chew toy…

However, one of the stone pillars, fifty or sixty feet long, provided him with more than eight thousand spiritual essences.

It looks very old and is quite incomplete; I don't know where it came from.

It was extremely hard; even with his near-level 6 Indestructible Vajra, he could hardly leave a mark on the pillar.

It seems... it could serve as a weapon for the White Elephant's incarnation?

What remains are a number of silver notes, gold notes, spirit stones, spirit iron, spirit gold, precious plants and medicines, etc.

Liu Sheng didn't take these things too seriously. He put them in a storage bag and handed it to Du Bingyan for safekeeping.

After dealing with all this, Liu Sheng prepared to set off. He had wasted a day, so he needed to hurry on his journey.

However, he still mentioned it briefly:
"Shall we go outside the valley and take a look?"

"Outside the valley?"

Du Bingyan's breath hitched, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes, and she finally shook her head, forcing a bitter smile:
"There's no need. My dad's probably getting impatient waiting at home. I should hurry back... I miss my dad."

She was a smart woman, and from Liu Sheng's expression and tone, she guessed the fate of Du Xingkui and the others.

She couldn't bear to watch the tragic fate of her people, nor did she want to.

They only have themselves to blame; they couldn't resist the temptation of "fate to immortality" and brought about their own demise.

"Let's go then."

Liu Sheng nodded, left the cave, and tried to activate his newly enhanced talent, "Greed for Life".

This talent allows one to sense danger, somewhat similar to the effect of the "Crow Form," which allows one to see death.

The difference lies in the fact that the "love of life" talent has a wider and more general scope of perception, similar to the macroscopic level.

The "crow-shaped" form requires firsthand observation; it is detailed, localized, and microscopic.

"Well, here, here, there... there's danger everywhere."

He sniffed, sensing danger from several directions, and shook his head.

These were the directions they originally planned to take to bypass Changfeng Ferry.

With Du Xingning's leak of information, these routes were either intercepted and blocked or ambushed.

Moreover, it seems that specific arrangements were made against Sky Sparrow.

Relying on the Sky Sparrow to fly over as before seems impractical.

Or rather, it's not cost-effective and is prone to causing unforeseen problems.

"Should we... force our way through?"

A hint of worry flashed in Du Bingyan's eyes, and she hesitated to speak.

The battle at Deer Head Valley was merely a hasty action by nearby aristocratic families and sects, resulting in the arrival of three Yellow Court cultivators, one great demon, and two cultivators at the Perfected Dao stage.

If we let them make thorough preparations in advance, who knows how many experts will come?
Two fists can never beat four legs...

"If we can't fly through the air or walk on the ground, then we'll go underground, which is even faster."

Liu Sheng was confident. Under Du Bingyan's astonished gaze, he consumed 20,000 spiritual essences to summon the Earth Rat avatar.

"This is easy, leave it to me."

The Earth Rat opened its mouth and inhaled, sucking everyone into its belly. With a "hehe" laugh, it sank hundreds of feet underground and sped off towards Changfeng Ferry.
