I feed the worms with my body, I am the evil demon

The rain continued, silently moistening Cuihan Mountain.

It was late at night, and the cool breeze blew the drizzle.

The lights in the Shuangsha Village of Cuihan Mountain were bright, and the noise of a group of bandits toasting and drinking, the sound of obscene laughter, and the screams of women in pain came one after another.

Gu Xiu took a comfortable hot bath with the help of several maids, put on luxurious brocade clothes and was taken back to the stilt house where Baisha was.

The door was closed, and the warm yellow light was on in the room. Gu Xiu had long hair draped over her shoulders, and a jade-buckled belt tied around her waist, which set off her wild figure with broad shoulders and back, long legs and thin waist.

On the bed not far away, Baisha was wearing a gauze dress, and her soft skin was looming. She hooked her jade fingers, and her eyes were blurred like a foxy girl.

Gu Xiu did not move, Bai Sha came close, hooked her hands around his neck, hung her plump and soft body on him, and breathed in Gu Xiu's ear.

Gu Xiu's face remained unchanged and unmoved when the fragrance entered his nose. The next moment, Bai Sha pressed him down. Bai Sha lifted the veil, leaving nothing underneath. She stretched out her rosy tongue and licked Gu Xiu's earlobe with a soft voice.

"Are you shy, young man?"

The cold and slippery hands wandered over his body, and the clothes were stripped off piece by piece. Gu Xiu raised the corners of his mouth and his eyes became colder.

Puff~

Bai Sha's snow-white neck stretched out, and an unbearable hum came from her nose, and her eyes were misty.

…

After a long time, the black cicada in Gu Xiu's body became restless. At Gu Xiu's signal, the one-winged black cicada left the wood spirit root where it was living and drilled into Bai Sha's body.

Bai Sha, who was originally flushed, turned pale in an instant. She raised her hand and slapped, and Gu Xiu also raised his hand to slap back. The two of them faced each other with palm to palm, and the energy burst out.

Bai Sha's jade-like body flew backwards.

Gu Xiu also slid back with the power of this palm. He looked at his palm with some surprise. This woman's skill was a few points stronger than that of A Bao, and she could even use poison.

With a cold snort, Gu Xiu used his fiery magic power to dispel the remaining poison in his palm.

"You..." Bai Sha curled up on the ground and couldn't stop twitching.

A small white snake suddenly rushed out with its tongue spitting out, and its fangs were shining with cold poison and biting Gu Xiu.

However, before it got close, a low and slight cicada chirp sounded, and the small white snake fell to the ground and curled up in a ball, trembling as if it had encountered a natural enemy.

After picking up the white snake and playing with it in his hands, Gu Xiu put on his clothes and walked to Bai Sha, squatting down, smiling brightly, "If my lady can be more honest, she can suffer less."

Bai Sha was covered in sweat, her beautiful face was twisted and hideous, she gasped and tried her best to say, "Spare... my life..."

Gu Xiu looked down at her closely, "Okay, what should you call me from now on?"

Bai Sha's silver teeth were about to break, she shouted two words with all her strength.

"Master..."

"Very good." Gu Xiu stood up and gave a death order to the black cicada that was devouring the joy.

This woman can't die yet, at least not for the time being. Gu Xiu didn't know what kind of physique this woman was, but it was better to feed her slowly to the black cicada than to eat her up all at once.

As Gu Xiu gave the death order, the black cicada's movement decreased and finally disappeared.

But the remaining black cicadas in Gu Xiu's body were not happy. They moved to various parts of Gu Xiu's body, and black and red lines appeared on Gu Xiu's body surface and kept flashing.

Gu Xiu was furious and his magic power was mobilized like a tide, suppressing the black cicadas that were running around on the wood spirit root.

Today was different from the past. Gu Xiu wanted to let these black cicadas know who was the master of this body.

Bai Sha's tense body suddenly relaxed, and her whole body was sweating. She lay on the ground with her hands drooping weakly and her chest heaving violently.

"Get up if you're not dead." Gu Xiu threw the trembling white snake to the ground and walked to the soft couch and sat cross-legged.

At this moment, Bai Sha cursed in her heart. This damn door beam sent not a bud, but an ancestor.

Bai Sha struggled to get up naked, she knelt on the ground and dared not raise her head.

"Don't worry, you can continue to be the second in command of Shuangsha Village. I am not interested in this. I will stay here for a while and then leave. I advise you not to have any ideas, otherwise..."

As Gu Xiu's cold words fell, the single-winged black cicada was ready to move, and Baisha's body immediately tensed up and got goose bumps.

"Please rest assured, master, I dare not!"

"Well, go down, don't make a sound and just do it as usual."

"I obey your command."

Baisha left, Gu Xiu stared at the closed door, and the single-winged black cicada that followed Baisha away sent out waves of resentment. It seemed that it was not very comfortable to leave Gu Xiu's body.

Gu Xiu comforted the single-winged black cicada. Baisha's every move was under his control at any time. As long as he had a thought, Baisha would die immediately.

Letting go of his thoughts, Gu Xiu took out the intermediate alchemy book.

The four major types of immortal cultivation are wealth, law, companions and land, and there are also hundreds of immortal cultivation arts, elixir, formation, instrument, talisman, spiritual plant, puppet, pulse detection, etc.

Among them, the most profitable business is to make pills, arrays, and symbols. However, this stuff depends on talent. Xu Ziqi has been refining pills for most of his life, but he can't even refine the Yangjing Pill, which is most effective for the Qi Refining Realm.

Gu Xiu is immersed in the art of refining pills. There are three kinds of pills that are very effective for the Qi Refining Realm.

They are Yangjing Pill, Qingxin Powder, and Xue Ning Pill.

These three pills Yangjing Pill can be used to increase cultivation and remove impurities in the body. Qingxin Powder can warm up the soul of the cultivator. Although it cannot improve the consciousness, it is a good medicine for clearing the heart and guarding the mind. Xue Ning Pill has the best effect on external injuries.

Then comes the most important elixir for cultivators to complete their Qi training, the foundation-building elixir. According to Xu Ziqi's travel notes, most cultivators need the foundation-building elixir to break through, and this elixir is in short supply.

Most of the foundation-building elixir sold on the market is monopolized by the major immortal families and used for disciples within the family.

As for independent cultivators like Xu Ziqi who have no power or influence, if they want the foundation-building elixir, they either have to make it themselves, buy it, or...rob it.

To make it yourself, you must first have superb alchemy skills, and then the materials. The recipe of the foundation-building elixir is not very precious, but the spiritual materials required are too expensive. There are more than 20 kinds of auxiliary spiritual materials alone, not to mention the three main materials.

The spiritual energy of this world is thin, and spiritual materials are scarce. This is where it is difficult for independent cultivators.

Like the finished foundation-building elixir, these main spiritual materials will also be monopolized by the major sects and families, so if independent cultivators want to stand out, they have to rely on robbing, except for the opportunity to encounter a few golden elixir and primordial infant caves.

Xu Ziqi was lucky enough to get a spot when a secret realm was opened to the cultivators. He followed the large group into the realm to fish in troubled waters. Although he didn't get any other foundation-building pills, he managed to build his foundation by grabbing a few.

As for the secret realm, Xu Ziqi once briefly said that it was opened every thirty years in Heimo Mountain. It is unknown whether it has been opened now, after all, Xu Ziqi has been away from the world of immortal cultivation for decades.

The worse the spiritual roots, the more foundation-building pills are needed, because a large amount of spiritual energy is needed when building the foundation, and spiritual stones are far from enough.

Back to the point, Gu Xiu carefully studied the alchemy manual and memorized the names and appearances of the spiritual materials required for these three kinds of pills. Now he can't make them, firstly because he hasn't started the art of alchemy yet, and secondly because he lacks spiritual materials.

He can only try to refine the only materials of the Bigu Pill and Peiyuan Pill in Xu Ziqi's storage bag.

Bigu Pill is simple and most suitable for novices to practice, but Xu Wen's storage bag has so few materials that it can barely be refined five or six times.

Do it right away, theory is not as good as practice. Gu Xiu took out the low-level alchemy furnace, and the flames rose in his palm.

There are five elements in "The Basics of Qi Refining". Most people will choose one of them for cultivation, whether they are real spiritual roots or fake spiritual roots. Refining too many will not be enough. If you are not careful, it will cause conflicts and end up with broken meridians. In the end, you will not be able to break through until your life is exhausted.

Even if Gu Xiu has a very high level of comprehension, he only dares to focus on one of them, and the other one is auxiliary.

Gu Xiu chose the fire attribute method "Burning Flame Method" and the wood attribute method "Green Wood Sutra".

Among them, the "Green Wood Sutra" is the highest, because among the three spiritual roots, the magic cicada lives on the wood spiritual root, and the spiritual energy fed back to him is also pure wood attribute spiritual energy, rather than the mixed spiritual energy of heaven and earth absorbed by the method.

"Burning Flame Method" only plays an auxiliary role, Gu Xiu did not spend too much energy, but it is more than enough for alchemy.

Novice alchemists who do not have fire spiritual roots can only use ordinary flames or underground fire veins to refine, but these fire veins are controlled by major forces and cannot be used by casual cultivators.

If you reach the foundation building stage, you can have the innate true fire, and you can refine the alchemy and tools with half the effort.

Throwing the spiritual materials that have lost most of their spiritual energy into the alchemy furnace, Gu Xiu used his magic power to drive the flame and began to dissolve the spiritual materials into spiritual liquid according to the steps described in the alchemy book.

This process will not take too long, but it is extremely challenging to control the fire. Not long after, thick black smoke rose from the alchemy furnace.

Gu Xiu waved his sleeves expressionlessly to disperse the smoke, cleaned the alchemy furnace and continued to fill in new spiritual materials for refining.

Alchemy is boring and cannot be accomplished overnight, and you can only accumulate experience through failure.

The second set of spiritual materials turned into ashes, but Gu Xiu did not get discouraged and replaced them with new ones to continue refining.
