Mountains and giant beasts, cabins in the woods

Liu Xingmo bought ten seeds of the herb *Ligusticum striatum* and a wild egg.

The seeds of the Muscle-Strengthening Grass are a low-grade medicinal herb of the Yellow rank, produced from second-tier acquired extraordinary seedlings. They can strengthen muscles and tendons, and increase arm strength.

Now that the bones are strong enough, strengthening the muscles is not a problem.

These complementary and beneficial ingredients, such as bone-strengthening root and tendon-strengthening grass seeds, are usually unavailable to ordinary people even with money. Now, they are being sold in limited quantities at low prices to specific individuals, truly a benefit for the old-fashioned.

That wild egg was bigger than a person's head, and its inside was full of blood and energy, which could help with blood cultivation.

It is a medium-grade Xuan-level spiritual medicine, produced by a third-tier acquired rare beast. Even at a low price, one piece costs 300 yuan.

As for the special-effect medicine, I bought one as usual.

Now that we understand its value, we should use it to its fullest potential.

As for the future, we need to find a way to obtain other species of turtles and tortoises from afar.

In the Central Plains region, common turtles and tortoises are generally one or two meters in size, belonging to small animals, and the Baohei is also this type of species.

However, there are also extremely rare giants—the softshell turtle, which can grow up to ten meters long. Hawksbill turtles also exist in the sea, and they can grow to seven or eight meters long.

These things might allow Baohei to break through its limits and grow into a behemoth.

Looking at the world as a whole, there are even larger sea turtles, giant tortoises, and some ancient and exotic species, such as the dinosaur and the earth-patterned tortoise...

We still lack strength right now; let alone the Central Plains, we can't even get out of this old forest.

Liu Xingmo packed his things and prepared to leave.

The waiter suddenly stopped him: "Wait a minute, we just received a great product, and yours will fit perfectly. But it's incredibly expensive, you'll have to borrow money to buy it."

"What is it?"

"I can't say, it has to be kept secret. The price is ten thousand yuan, you decide for yourself. If you don't want it, we'll immediately resell it at a higher price to an elder who needs it."

Liu Xingmo hissed through gritted teeth, finally clenching his teeth and saying, "Buy it! Pay in full!"

The entire money bag was thrown onto the table, making a loud "clattering" sound that sent shivers down one's spine.

The waitress looked at Liu Xingmo with surprise for the first time, then got up and left.

A short while later, she brought over a glass jar and handed it to Liu Xingmo: "There's an introduction inside. Go back and take a look. Remember, don't tell anyone."

With a pained expression, Liu Xingmo hung the deflated money pouch on his waist, then tied the jar with a cotton rope, lifted it by hand, and quickly left the pharmacy.

What exactly is this thing?

On his way home, Liu Xingmo couldn't help but feel suspicious.

I want to take things apart and study them, but I'm worried about revealing secrets and attracting unwanted attention. Yet, not touching them leaves me with an insatiable curiosity.

We have no choice but to bear it.

Many pedestrians would occasionally turn their heads to look in this direction, at the jar, at the eggs. After all, as fellow bloodline cultivators, they could naturally sense something.

Liu Xingmo quickly went home and closed the door.

He put down the glass jar, opened it, and saw 10 fist-sized capsules.

Brownish-red, with calyx and stem, it looks unremarkable, like an acorn that can be found anywhere in the mountains and forests.

Liu Xingmo picked up a seed with a puzzled look, examined it repeatedly, but couldn't discern anything about it.

Is Da Yaotang trying to scam me?

"Thump, thump, thump!" came the sound of something hitting the wooden wall.

Turning my head, I saw Bao Hei propping up the door.

It's grown too big to climb into the living room now. It has to stay in its own room and go out through its own door.

Liu Xingmo arrived at the turtle's den with the fruit in his hand.

Baohei stretched its neck, its beady green eyes fixed on the fruit in its master's hand, its head following the movement. Its sharp tail was held high, swaying from side to side.

Liu Xingmo sensed intense emotions through the soul imprint.

I want to eat it! I want to eat it!

Liu Xingmo threw the fruit out.

With a powerful push from its four legs, Baohei leaped up like a rabbit. It opened its mouth wide, grabbed the fruit, and swallowed it with a gulp.

On its pointed head, two wisps of white steam emanate from its two nostrils, and its eyes are slightly narrowed, as if it is very content.

"Is it really necessary? Are you that greedy?"

Liu Xingmo reached out and patted the contracted beast's head, transferring a wisp of blood energy to it.

At the same time, through his soul imprint, he sensed a strange energy emanating from the fruit and slowly entering Bao Hei's body.

"It seems this thing really works. And this feeling of aura... could it also be luck?"

Liu Xingmo returned to the living room, took out a piece of paper from the jar, and read it carefully.

The Purple Crape Myrtle Fruit is a top-grade earth-level spiritual medicine, produced from a fourth-order innate rare seedling—the Purple Crape Myrtle Tree.

No wonder it's so expensive!

The fruit enhances the user's noble bearing, paving the way for a smooth career and making them more respected and influential. This effect lasts until the noble bearing is depleted.

My God! Is this some kind of mystical method?

Eating a single bite of the fruit is like moving an ancestral grave; it can even change a person's luck!

The book says that all things are imbued with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and with an extremely low probability of transformation, they naturally acquire control over a certain spiritual energy and possess extraordinary abilities. These abilities are diverse and encompass all changes in the world.

That crape myrtle tree is probably a rare and precious seedling that controls one's destiny.

This is a truly auspicious omen, far superior to that of some turtle.

Liu Xingmo picked up a fruit, his heart pounding with excitement; he wanted to try it too.

This thing has a hard, woody outer shell; if you crack it open like a walnut, you can get seeds the size of a fingertip.

Liu Xingmo gritted his teeth and ate the fruit seeds.

I've eaten plenty of millet and barley, but this is the first time I've ever tried this.

It tasted both sour and astringent when I put it in my mouth.

Chew carefully, the melted starch filling your mouth. The seed coat, like a melon seed shell, is impossible to swallow, but you have to force yourself to chew it thoroughly and swallow it.

At the same time, an invisible and intangible energy flowed into the body.

It is like the radiant glow of dawn, like the warm sunshine of spring.

Warm and vast, sublime and boundless. Encompassing heaven and earth, illuminating all things.

It exudes an air of nobility.

Once this air of nobility permeated his being, Liu Xingmo vaguely felt that he was different from others.

Tian Xingjian, the gentleman is self-improvement.

Liu Xingmo looked at the few remaining grass seeds. This time he was smarter and peeled off the seed coats before eating them, which made them taste a little better.

As for the shells and seed coats, they shouldn't be wasted either; they should all be used to feed the turtles.

Liu Xingmo ate three seeds of the Crape Myrtle Noble Fruit.

He looked in the mirror and saw himself as someone who seemed unfathomable and exuding an aura of dominance.

very good!

Hopefully, making money will be even easier from now on.

Haha, I still can't shake off my petty-bourgeois mentality.

Liu Xingmo carefully put away the remaining Purple Rose Noble Fruit. This thing was too precious and he would use it when Bao Hei advanced to the second tier.

Next, he continued his bloodline cultivation as usual.

There is a large egg that needs to be dealt with.

Take out a chisel, gently chisel a hole, pierce the soft egg membrane, and the clear, viscous egg white will pour out.

Liu Xingmo only took a small sip, and the blood and qi in his body surged violently like rolling waves, waiting to be released in a torrent.

The effect is amazing! It's a whole level better than the previous caviar.

Liu Xingmo immediately began cultivating, controlling his wild blood energy.

The ferocious energy was almost boiling, a harbinger of a breakthrough.
