I can't be a demon

"etc."

Shen Lian's expression became stiff, and he suddenly realized a very critical issue. If he wanted to use his wisdom, he had to face the ghost directly.

There is no doubt about the terror of thousand-year-old ghosts.

According to what is mentioned in the Book of Transformation of the Corpse, the resentment of thousand-year-old ghosts can destroy towns instantly, and it cannot be distinguished by ordinary means.

At first, Zhu Sanxing's Daoxing was definitely no more than a thousand years old. As a result, it took several months for the Jinwu Guards to reluctantly lead him out of the darkness of Yanliang Town.

Shen Lian's martial arts training is enough to bully a century-old ghost, but once he encounters a thousand-year-old demon...

I'm afraid that before he even gets close, his energy and blood have been depleted by the erosion of resentment, and the thousand-year-old demon won't let him notice at all.

"That's all, keep a low profile."

Shen Lian flipped through the secret book of breath-holding technique and secretly thought about the fundamentals of the corpse Taoist.

Logically speaking, since a corpse Taoist is a special profession, the awakened supernatural powers must be far beyond ordinary. Of course, they may also be more evil.

Chapter 44 Weird Corpse Taoist Magical Powers

Shen Lian rested until noon, then went out to select the corpse Taoist's basic materials at the market.

By the way, I took a look at the Yamen's reaction. After all, I made a lot of noise while carrying the black wooden coffin, and there was also a myna causing trouble.

But what I didn't expect was that Jin Wuwei didn't seem to want to delve deeper.

Almost at dawn, when most of the resentment that enveloped the Yamen had dissipated, the hundreds of warriors who had settled in had already returned home one after another.

The rumors of the Black Coffin Man are getting more and more popular among the people. Whether it is a demon or not is a bit ambiguous.

Shen Lian carefully recalled the experience of entering and exiting the Yamen. Even when customizing the coffin, he maintained horizontal training throughout the process, and there should be no omissions.

He relaxed and focused on wandering around the market, finally finding the right object.

An earthen jar with a history of 500 years was originally used as a burial object to store grain; coffin rivets covered with rust; the Qinxue Jade stuffed into the mouth of the corpse before burial...

Overall, it fits well with the Corpse Taoist.

Shen Lian took everything back to the pawn shop and lay on the armchair thinking secretly.

"Why."

"They are all related to the dead. It feels too weird. To be honest, it would make no sense to awaken a magical power to refine zombies."

Shen Lian pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache, and reached out to take the medicinal meal that Fugui diligently handed over.

Refining corpses requires staying in a place full of resentment for a long time. Even if magical powers are helpful, the zombies produced will definitely attract the attention of the Yamen.

As a martial arts master and a part-time ghost exorcist, there is no need to follow evil ways.

"no."

"Besides, these things are indeed ordinary and do not meet the rarity of special professions."

Shen Lian frowned slightly, and his eyes subconsciously fell on the banyan tree in the corner of the courtyard. The branches that had just been removed not long ago actually sprouted new buds.

He showed his discernment.

[Centennial banyan tree successfully identified]

【Centennial banyan tree】

[It was planted by Shen Tongming when he was young and has been planted for 175 years. Because nutrients have been sufficient recently, there is a tendency for dead trees to bloom again. 】

"According to the strange behavior of the banyan tree, there is indeed some possibility of becoming a demon."

The banyan tree belongs to the yin category, which in a sense also fits the Taoist corpse.

Shen Lian's only concern is that the basic object will be damaged. If the banyan tree is bound, it means that there is a high probability that it will not be able to move in the future.

He then thought about it, "The banyan tree is a plant that is very easy to divide and propagate. You can break off the branches and insert them into the soil to grow saplings. Compared with starlings and bone blades, they seem to be more difficult to damage."

The most important thing is that after hundreds or thousands of years, once the banyan tree becomes a demon, it will become a self-reliant top ten employee, and...

Banyan trees don’t have mouths! ! !

"That's it. Binding funerary objects and the like will only affect my painting style."

[Are you sure that the banyan tree is the fundamental material of the Taoist Corpse?]

"Sure."

[Supernatural power: ****]

Shen Lian's head buzzed violently, and the reaction to binding the fundamental object was stronger than expected, and his five senses suddenly fell into a trance.

"Ah~"

Myna, who had been resting for half a day, flew out of the wing and tilted his head to look at the banyan tree.

The myna has undergone a complete transformation in a short period of time, its size has increased dramatically, and now it looks a bit like a bird of prey.

Click click click.

Bone Blade also grinned, his tongue sticking out of his collar, and you could see a dark eye on the top of his tongue.

Immediately afterwards, from a perspective that was difficult to see with the naked eye, Shen Lian's entire body was emitting bloody red smoke.

The smoke and dust are like vaporized flesh and blood.

"Ah~"

The myna crowed to isolate the demonic atmosphere in the courtyard, so as to prevent the newly born little brother from causing unnecessary trouble.

The blood flowed up and down in the courtyard, becoming more and more intense as time went by.

It was obviously just invisible gas, but it gradually revealed a texture similar to muscle. After a while, the blood-sucking swallows flocked to the banyan tree like returning to their nests.

When the blood envelops the banyan tree, from the outside it looks like the tree has turned into flesh and blood.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

When Shen Lian came to his senses, the banyan tree had returned to calm.

If you look closely, you can see that the veins in the leaves look like blood vessels.

Myna turned around and continued to sleep.

The bone blade has become accustomed to being broken, and when it saw the starling disappearing into the side room, it also restrained its breath.

[Supernatural Power: Pregnant Material]

[Pregnancy substance: Absorb the medicinal power of plants and the nutrients of living beings to incubate the great medicine. 】

"kindness?"

Shen Lian's eyes twitched, and he didn't understand the connection between the magical power of pregnancy and the corpse Taoist. Shouldn't the two be unrelated?

He took out half a kilogram of medicinal materials left over from cooking the medicinal meal, and was stunned for a moment.

"Do I have to bury the herbs under the tree? That's too much effort."

After studying for a long time, Shen Lian found that the banyan tree was actually hollow. There was a tree hole at the top of the trunk that could accommodate an adult. The tree hole was extremely dry and the temperature was much higher than the outside world.

He placed the herbs in the tree hole and then used the magical power of pregnancy.

After Shen Lian waited patiently for a day and a night, an inconspicuous green fruit grew on the branch, and a faint medicinal fragrance could be smelled.

[Blood-replenishing fruit]

[Born from the banyan tree, it has the effects of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, and nourishing the skin after taking it. ]

Shen Lian threw it into his mouth and chewed it. The taste he tasted was as bitter as the herbs. After swallowing it into his stomach, it brought nutrients continuously.

"Huh."

The Yin-Yang power digested the nutrients, which accelerated the blood flow. It can be seen that the blood-replenishing fruit can significantly promote blood refining.

Shen Lian closed his eyes and operated the Yin-Yang power. The nutrients were completely exhausted after two hours.

You know, it only takes ten minutes for a giant stomach to digest medicinal food, and the blood-replenishing fruit can definitely be used as an aid to daily practice.

"But..."

Shen Lian had a strange expression.

He could guess with his toes that the corpse Taoist had to gain experience from the corpses of demons, and the pills bred from the corpses must be far superior to ordinary ones.

Shen Lian went to buy a few kilograms of two or three-year-old medicinal materials.

As a result, no matter what kind of medicinal materials, only blood-replenishing fruit was bred in the end.

If the medicinal materials were younger, the banyan tree would need to consume more medicinal materials to breed, and the nutrients of the blood-replenishing fruit would not be the slightest difference.

Shen Lian was amazed.

"Don't worry about the connection between the pregnant object and the corpse path. It's better to have a magical power of refining pills."
