The ancestor of talismans

The devil's cave is deep and long, the light gets darker as you go deeper, and there is a pungent smell of blood.

Snap!

The sound of breaking bones was heard under Hu Baxian's feet. Hu Baxian looked down and was shocked.

A small skeleton was crushed by him, leaving only the skull intact.

The little skeleton is very small, about the same size as the soles of his feet. Even a newborn baby is bigger than this.

Hu Baxian released his spiritual sense and searched carefully. There was still more than ten feet further into the cave. In the middle was a small path that was only wide enough for one person to pass through. Both sides of the path were filled with these skeletons, there were hundreds of them.

"this……"

Hu Baxian was dumbfounded, and immediately remembered Xu Changshou's words: How many days can a premature fetus survive if it is dug out?

It turned out that what Xu Changshou said was true. Mr. Liu, no, that devil, actually dug up so many fetuses.

Hu Baxian felt his scalp tingling when he thought about how he often came to bring him herbs. He could never have imagined that Mr. Liu, who looked so kind, was actually an evil demon.

Xu Changshou also glanced at the cave, stopped, and said to Hu Baxian: "There is nothing in it, let's go!"

After leaving the cave, Xu Changshou found a huge rock and sealed the cave completely. Then, he took Hu Baxian and flew towards Qilin Town.

"Brother Wang, how do you know that Mr. Liu is an evil demon?"

On the way, Hu Baxian couldn't help but ask.

"hehe!"

Xu Changshou smiled and said, "I have accepted a mission to hunt down the Blood Butcher. According to the news, the Blood Butcher is hiding in Qilin Town. Because he practices magic, he needs a lot of Qingming grass all year round, so I found you..."

"oh!"

Hu Baxian suddenly understood and nodded, "I see. You see, my Qingming grass is of the best quality, so you think the Blood Butcher might buy my Qingming grass, so he squatted beside me."

Xu Changshou nodded: "Not bad!"

Hu Baxian seemed to have thought of something and said, "I thought that Mr. Liu, a pharmacist, wouldn't need so much Qingming grass. It turns out that it is used to practice magic."

That’s right, Hu Baxian had had suspicions a long time ago, but he had never suspected that Mr. Liu was a demon.

"Brother Wang, thanks to you for exposing him, otherwise, I would be in trouble sooner or later." Hu Baxian said with some fear.

"hehe."

Xu Changshou looked calm and said, "Even if I wasn't there, it would be the same. The Blood Butcher refined the fetus, which is an unforgivable crime. The Immortal Cultivation Association has long been targeting him. Even if I wasn't there, there would still be others who would have taken care of him."

"Anyway, thank you for saving me."

“That’s my mission.”

"Task……"

After hearing what Xu Changshou said, Hu Baxian was stunned for a moment, then said: "I heard from my grandfather that there is a group of very powerful adventurers who specialize in taking those life-threatening tasks in the Xiuxian Guild and live a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife. Brother Wang, are you such a person?"

“I guess so.”

Xu Changshou smiled bitterly.

Although he had only accepted two missions, both missions brought him generous rewards. In the short term, Xu Changshou would have to continue to accept such dangerous missions.

Hu Baxian frowned: "Brother Wang, this is too dangerous, you should quit as soon as possible."

Xu Changshou shook his head: "Not yet, I need money, my grandson, oh, no more."

Hu Baxian thought for a moment and said, "Brother Wang, I know you need money. When the day comes when you no longer need money, then stop doing this."

"Okay, thank you for reminding me, I'll listen to you."

After hearing what Xu Changshou said, Hu Baxian was very happy and asked, "I heard from my grandfather that the guards of the Xiuxin Guild are all ranked. What is your rank?"

"It can be considered level five." Xu Changshou thought for a while and said so.

He completed two tasks in total, with a commission of 160,000 medium-grade spirit stones, fully meeting the requirements of a fifth-level worker.

I would like to add here that although the Xiuxian Guild calculates levels based on commissions, only commissions for completed tasks are counted. Transactions made by Xu Changshou in the Xiuxian Guild are not counted. Otherwise, his Xiuxian Guild token, Wang Hai, would have long been a level five worker.

"Level five!"

Hu Baxian opened his mouth wide and looked at Xu Changshou with admiration.

Xu Changshou glanced ahead and saw the city wall of Qilin Town in the distance, so he stopped.

"Brother Wang, why did you stop?" Hu Baxian also stopped and asked curiously.

Xu Changshou patted Hu Baxian on the shoulder and said, "I'll take you here, and you can go back by yourself."

"You're leaving?"

Hu Baxian looked reluctant. He had been playing around with Xu Changshou these days, and he really couldn't bear to see him leave suddenly.

"I have completed my mission, so I have to leave. All good things must come to an end."

"Where are you going?"

"Mudong Divine City."

"Great! When I become a god, I will go to Mudong Divine City and venture out. Then, I will come to find you."

"Well, bye!"

Xu Changshou waved his hand, summoned the Gale Boat, and instantly distanced himself from Hu Baxian.

Behind him, Hu Baxian shouted at the top of his voice: "Brother Wang, wait for me, I will definitely go to Mudong Divine City to find you."

…

After leaving Qilin Town, Xu Changshou rushed towards Mudong Divine City at a speed of 14 yuan.

On the way, Xu Changshou opened the Blood Butcher's storage bag and took a look.

He thought that a demon like Blood Butcher who killed people without blinking an eye would be very rich. Sadly, Blood Butcher was also a poor guy, with less than 10,000 spirit stones in his storage bag.

The resources in this world are locked up so tightly that even a murderous devil cannot make any money.

Apart from spirit stones, the most valuable thing the Blood Butcher had was a blood-colored sword.

The rest are all worthless stuff.

Xu Changshou searched for a long time and finally found a jade slip and a photo stone.

The Shadow Stone is also a product of the Sangyu Immortal Realm and is not found in the Dongyu Immortal Realm.

Photo stones can record some fragments and preserve them.

The Bloody Butcher is a murderous devil. What would a person like him record? Would he... record the scene of him digging out a fetus?

Thinking of this, Xu Changshou frowned, but still took a look.

Who would have known that the image stone recorded some passionate love stories of two young men and women. Xu Changshou looked carefully and found that the young man was the young Bloody Butcher.

However, when he was young, the Bloody Butcher had a clean appearance, clear eyes, and no hostility at all.

He and the woman were childhood sweethearts and came from the same immortal cultivation village. Later, they joined the immortal cultivation sect together.

When he arrived at the immortal cultivation sect, Blood Butcher practiced very hard and had fewer opportunities to spend time with women.

After a retreat that lasted for several years, the Bloody Butcher came out and went to find the woman with joy, only to discover that she was having sex with a fellow apprentice.

The Bloody Butcher was furious and started fighting with that senior brother. In the end, he was not able to defeat the other brother and was pinned to the ground and beaten.

Afterwards, the senior brother took the woman and left, and the Bloody Butcher became a demon overnight.
