154 Ten Thousand Year Old Blood Ginseng

If his mother attacked, how could this person still be alive?

Without his trump card, a true sense of death surged in his heart. He controlled his Cold Blade to attack, but it only caused a spark to appear on Song Shi.

Boom!

What responded to his attack was the Dragon Subduing Palm. Like a fire dragon descending to the world, the ground sank and airwaves spread, forming a pile of meat paste.

Second Master Lu’s entire body was flattened and stuck to the ground. His body was charred black and he died very quickly.

Song Shi grabbed the person’s storage bag from afar and put it away. After thinking for a moment, he took off his coat.

This person’s clothes were a special kind of Dharma artifacts. It was this thing that had prevented the other party from being blown up on the spot.

After collecting the spoils of the battle, he glanced at the scales on this person’s back and rubbed his fingers. A large fireball flew out and destroyed his corpse.

“Four lucky draws.”

Song Shi disposed of the remaining three corpses and retrieved the Yin-Yang Reversal Formation Disk. He glanced at the pitch-black mountain range and left silently.

It had only been fifteen minutes since he forced Second Master Lu and the others out. In addition, the Array Formation had concealed the fluctuations and did not attract any passersby.

When Song Shi was some distance away, he suddenly sensed something and looked back.

“There’s actually a powerhouse coming over. Looks like that guy even called someone over.”

Song Shi smiled. “After killing this guy, there will probably be many people who will want to avenge him. That’s good.”

Others were afraid of Second Master Lu’s background, afraid of getting into trouble, but he…

Song Shi did not return. He sensed that there were more people nearby and continued forward without batting an eyelid.

In the battle area, a few figures landed.

After checking for a moment, their expressions changed.

“Second Master Lu seems to be dead.”

“Who killed him? I heard that he had the Demon Venerable’s amulet for protection.”

“If he’s really dead, we have to tell the higher-ups quickly. Don’t let ourselves be implicated.”

The two Golden Core cultivators and the Foundation Establishment cultivators who came couldn’t help but discuss after checking the nearby traces. Then, they hurriedly sent the news to the higher-ups.

A few moments later, strange low laughter suddenly appeared in the air, like a child playing.

“Guardian Hong Luo is here!”

The few of them immediately bowed in respect.

“Interesting. The White Snake Demon Venerable’s son is really dead.”

As she laughed, a paper figurine landed in the pit. It looked like a little girl, but she did not look angry. Instead, she looked like she was gloating.

“Guardian, the murderer was too fast. We couldn’t save him in time.”

The few of them wanted to get rid of the responsibility of not being able to save Second Master Lu in time.

“For this kind of person, do you think it’s possible for us to keep saving him every time? I think it’s better if he dies.”

Hong Luo had a mocking expression, “We’ll just follow up on the clues. Let his father, Lu Qingjian, settle the troubles over the rest of the matter.”

“Yes, Guardian!”

The few of them heaved a sigh of relief and began to investigate the traces of the murderer’s departure.

On Song Shi’s route, a few shadows appeared and chased after him like dogs.

After Song Shi returned to the Heavenly Ghost Sect, he did not mention Second Master Lu’s matter to anyone. He returned to his room and began to organize his gains.

The spoils of war were nothing. They were only worth a little more than three thousand spirit stones. The most important thing was the system’s rewards for him.

He opened the system to check the current situation.

Overall evaluation: Your realm is at the perfected Foundation Establishment realm. Your true strength can fight against a late-stage Golden Core cultivator!

…

“My combat strength is already comparable to the late-stage Golden Core realm.”

Song Shi thought to himself, “This strength can be considered Elite level in any Demon Cult, but I still have to form my core as soon as possible.”

He did as per usual and added Freedom Attribute Points to his Comprehension to ensure that his cultivation speed was fast enough.

As for the situation where his Spirit fell behind his Physique, this was a normal phenomenon. After all, he had just awakened his Spirit Body, and it would take some time for his Spirit to improve.

“Time to draw the lottery!”

Song Shi drew the last item and the lottery wheel prize was refreshed.

Ding… congratulations on drawing ten thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng!

ten thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng: High-grade spirit herb. It can replenish blood and Qi and has the effect of reviving the dead. (This effect is only useful for mortals. The stronger you are, the weaker the Effect.)

This was the first time Song Shi had picked a medicinal herb, so he could not help but take another look.

High-grade spirit herbs were quite precious.

After all, those with the word ‘Spirit’ were all spiritual objects. Usually, only those at the Golden Core realm and above were qualified to enjoy them.

He took it out, and the room was instantly filled with a dense blood-colored light. The ginseng in his hand was like a blood crystal, filled with vigorous vitality. It trembled as if it wanted to escape.

“It really has spirituality. It instinctively wants to run away. Fortunately, it did not come into contact with the soil.”

Song Shi thought of the rumor that some spiritual herbs could escape when they touched soil. He formed a seal and sealed them, not giving them any chance to do so.

“The Blood Transformation Technique consumes a lot of Vitality at the beginning of cultivation. This thing will be quite useful to me.”

Muttering to himself, Song Shi opened his mouth and swallowed the thing to prevent any accidents from happening.

In the next second, a blood-colored light bloomed on his chest and the violent medicinal power was released.

Song Shi circulated the Demonic Blood Transformation Technique and crazily cultivated the first level of the cultivation technique, transforming the blood in his body into the Blood of Origin, which was similar to True Essence.

The Blood Transformation Technique used blood as the foundation. It was divided into Blood Qi, Blood Spring, Blood Pool, Blood River, and Blood Spirit. It was very different from the conventional Golden Core Dao cultivation.

However, their realms were similar. Blood Qi corresponded to the Qi Refinement realm. Song Shi’s blood Qi was powerful to begin with. He did not need to cultivate at all and could directly start from the second realm.

The second level of the Blood Spring Realm corresponded to the Foundation Establishment realm. The cultivation method was to turn the heart into a spring and all the blood in the body into spring water.

Under the official cultivation, with the help of the blood ginseng’s power, the blood light in Song Shi’s heart surged and gurgled. The blood light condensed into a blood-colored spring.

The smell of blood permeated the air. Song Shi’s body emitted a bloody glow and he now had the aura of a Blood-Robed old ghost.

As he refined the blood ginseng, his heart started beating faster and faster like a drum.

When he reached his limit, his heartbeat changed and finally disappeared completely, making him look rather strange.

The phenomenon of the Blood spring water in his heart became more and more obvious. Blood flowed around him, and his vitality kept increasing.

While Song Shi was cultivating the Demonic Blood Transformation Technique, a huge black palace stood on the mountain peak fifty kilometers away from the Heavenly Ghost Sect’s temporary base.

The palace was a thousand feet tall and had an ancient design. It was engraved with demons and ghosts and had a strange aura. There were armored cultivators guarding it.

A powerful aura suddenly came from the palace, and the temperature of the world suddenly dropped. Snowflakes actually floated up out of thin air.

Although this aura was cold, it was clearly filled with anger. The terrifying pressure from it made the guards tremble.

“My son is dead. Who killed him?”
