Chapter 15 Re-entering the Burial Mound, Swallowing Elixir and Brewing Immortal Pot
Lin Bufan doubted that he had heard correctly.
"What do you need this for? Do you want to be alone...?"
Li Qingchen nodded: "That's right."
Lin Bufan paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and said:
"All I know is that the Great Fox Immortal has nine sons. Apart from one that is lurking in Liu Family Village, most of the others are in Cai Family Village."
"Thank you. It's getting late, I'll head back to rest now."
After saying that, Li Qingchen got up and left.
Before leaving, he observed Liu Yi from the shadows for a while longer before departing with peace of mind.
Lin Bufan looked at the slender figure and thought to himself, "What a strange person."
Li Qingchen returned to the inn and couldn't wait to take a bath and change his clothes.
After washing away the filth, I sat cross-legged on the bed.
"There are eight more fox demons like this."
"This is a rare opportunity, and I absolutely cannot miss out on these experience packages."
"Before exorcising the demon, we naturally need to level up first."
Li Qingchen looked at the panel, while holding a pot of top-quality wine he had bought from Liaocheng.
Current number of resurrections: 1/3
"This ticket was hard-won, so I hope it can be used to its fullest potential and maximize its value."
"Lawless Land, activated!"
After the resurrection count is entered into the system.
The panel text began to update continuously.
……
【Long-lost swordsman, you have finally returned to the 'Lawless Land'.】
[It seems the King of Hell knew you wouldn't give up so easily; sure enough, you returned to the underworld.]
When the King of Hell saw you, it was as if he had encountered a plague god. He hurriedly pinched his nose and ordered the Black and White Impermanence to take you away, avoiding you at all costs.
"...No wonder the Black and White Impermanence are impatient with me; it turns out their superiors all have this attitude."
Li Qingchen finally understood that he must have seriously offended the King of Hell before.
"Could it be because in my first life, besides cutting my own name off the Book of Life and Death, I also killed people I shouldn't have killed?"
"Tsk, this King Yama, does he even know what the Great Sage Who Canopies the Tent is? I gave him a chance, but he's useless."
The crimson belly is finished.
The game continues.
You wake up in a mass grave. Sunlight shines on your corpse, making you feel warm. You think to yourself, "It's good to be alive."
The army of the undead charges at you, but you are not afraid, for this time you are prepared.
You buried the silver sword in the ground, then calmly took out a glossy fox pelt and draped it over your shoulders.
[The fox fur contains the art of skin-changing; you can transform into the demons you have slain. Do you choose to become a living dead?]
[Your choice to become a living dead was truly wise; the army of the living dead now considers you one of their own.]
One of the lieutenants, who seemed to be a centurion, muttered something in zombie language to you, and you understood what it meant.
[Centurion: "Have you seen anyone wielding a sword?"]
You shook your head.
[Centurion: Continue patrolling. Do not let any living person escape, especially those carrying swords; kill them without mercy.]
You nodded, feeling relieved.
You begin patrolling the mass graves, and as you gaze upon the endless rows of tombs, your ambition begins to swell.
【"Oh dear, oh dear, these are all my drops!"—You think to yourself.】
No, I didn't.
Li Qingchen remained calm and composed.
【Wise swordsman, now that you've escaped the pursuit of the undead army, do you plan to first find a grave to explore for some opportunities, or choose to return to the grave of the Silver Sword's owner and offer him the fine wine you have?】
Please note that fortune and misfortune are intertwined; within the thousands of graves in the mass graves lies an unspeakable terror.
If you accidentally disturb its peaceful slumber during your exploration, you may incur its wrath.
Li Qingchen thought for a moment, and since the panel had already said so, he decided to choose the safer latter option.
You have chosen to go to the grave of the Silver Sword's master.
[You have re-entered the blessed land, and the master of the silver sword is delighted to see you.]
You hurriedly poured the fine wine in your hand onto the ground, but the owner of the silver sword sniffed it and told you that he was not satisfied with the wine.
[It is regrettable that you did not inherit the legacy of the Silver Sword's master.]
Li Qingchen was stunned.
What, you want to drink Moutai?
Li Qingchen wasn't particularly disappointed at not receiving the inheritance.
Anyway, he has a fox fur as cover, so if he comes next time, we can just bring him another pot of wine.
however.
Just as he was leaving—
[Hint: The "Strong Luck" talent has been triggered!]
The master of the silver sword called you back. Although the wine you brought was as awful as swill, it was still a token of your filial piety.
The owner of the silver sword hands you his wine jug.
Although there's a large hole in the bottom, he said that as long as a skilled craftsman can be found, he can get it repaired.
[Then place the demon's core into the pot, and the pot will produce fine wine.]
[Swordsman, do you accept this wine flask? Even if you refuse, the owner of the silver sword has no objection; after all, all he wants is fine wine.]
[Furthermore, in his memory, that 'master craftsman' seemed to have a rather bad temper; getting him to obediently repair the wine jug for him wouldn't be easy.]
You choose to accept the wine jug.
[Hint: You have obtained the 'Immortal-Brewing Pot'!]
The Elixir-Swallowing Immortal-Brewing Pot, with sword patterns engraved on its interior and a gourd-shaped exterior, appears to be an ordinary wine vessel, but is in fact a magical artifact.
[The wine flask can remove the malevolent and poisonous essence from the demon core, leaving only pure demonic energy, which it then transforms into celestial wine.]
The purer the demon core, the clearer the color of the wine; the stronger the demonic power, the stronger the aroma and the more miraculous the effects.
Drinking this wine can quickly replenish physical strength, energy, and mana, and gradually heal injuries.
[Long-term consumption can cleanse the meridians, stabilize one's spiritual realm, and enhance cultivation.]
……
no doubt.
This wine jug is an extraordinary treasure with many benefits.
Looking at it this way, it's clear that repairs are absolutely necessary.
The only problem is that it has a hole.
But it's not a big problem.
Li Qingchen sorted out his thoughts.
To inherit the silver sword's legacy, one must give it fine wine.
To make fine wine, you must repair the wine jug;
To repair the wine jug, one must find a master craftsman.
In addition, after repairing the wine pot, one must also slay a demon containing a demon core.
"Tsk, that's really motivating. I just don't know how far I can go with this one life."
You hung the tattered wine jug at your waist, and before leaving, you asked the owner of the silver sword if he was the Drunken Sword Immortal.
The owner of the silver sword shook his head, admitting that he was merely a clumsy imitator of the Drunken Sword Immortal.
[Because he was saved by the Drunken Sword Immortal in his childhood, and influenced by him, he embarked on a journey to slay demons and monsters.]
The owner of the silver sword tells you that his real name is Sikong Yitian, his sword is "Frost Silver," his swordsmanship is "Lingxu," and his magical artifact is the "Emperor-Swallowing Elixir-Brewing Pot."
If you ever encounter the legendary Sword Immortal, please be sure to tell him: "That crybaby who used to wear loincloths has become a formidable swordsman."
Will you grant Sikong's request for one day?
You chose to grant the request, even though you weren't certain you'd meet that free-spirited immortal. However, your attitude pleased Sikong immensely.
To help you fulfill his last wish, he decided to pass on a skill of lightness and agility to you.
[Hint: You have obtained the "Heavenly Freedom Technique"!]
