Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 41 Invulnerable to All Poisons (Please continue reading)

Xia Muqing looked at Shen Xuan with a puzzled expression, biting her lip, and finally asked the question.

Women tend to be more curious.

"Yes. I just broke through to the fifth level of Qi Refining. Is there a problem?"

Shen Xuan said without changing his expression.

After using the [Concealing Breath Technique], even Qi Refining cultivators couldn't discern his true cultivation level.

“No problem.” Xia Muqing quickly shook her head.

She thought for a moment and then asked, "Master Shen, is this really your first time hunting?"

"Really. If you don't believe me, ask Fellow Daoist Zhao." Shen Xuan looked at his teammate with some doubt.

"Shouldn't we be dealing with this armored crocodile as soon as possible? We agreed beforehand that the crocodile blood is mine!"

Zhao Chunsheng seemed to awaken from a dream.

"We'll talk when we get back! Come help us clean up! If we attract other monsters, we'll be in trouble!"

The Tie brothers quickly stepped forward and worked with Zhao Chunsheng to clean up the armored crocodile.

Shen Xuan continued collecting his crocodile blood.

In order to collect the blood of monsters, he even bought a new storage bag.

He didn't want to end up like Zhao Chunsheng, carrying a bucket of blood and reeking of stench.

Wen Zijian and Shi Xiangdong exchanged glances, their eyes showing the same surprise.

They did not approach, but instead remained on guard nearby.

Xia Muqing watched Shen Xuan collect crocodile blood with curiosity.

"A first-grade, high-quality armored crocodile has excellent materials for refining weapons, including its skin, teeth, claws, and bones. Crocodile meat can also fetch a price. Relatively speaking, crocodile blood is the cheapest."

Xia Muqing seemed to be muttering to herself, but she was actually reminding Shen Xuan.

Hearing this, Shen Xuan felt a warmth in his heart.

“Master Shen, please keep the crocodile blood for now. We can distribute the rest when we get back,” Zhao Chunsheng explained.

He was the captain, responsible for distributing the spoils of war, and always rewarded according to merit.

Given Shen Xuan's contributions, only being allocated crocodile blood is clearly an insult to him.

"It's alright. As agreed beforehand, give me the crocodile blood. As for the rest, Fellow Daoist Zhao, you can distribute it as you see fit!"

His primary objective was the blood of water-attribute monsters.

The next step is to earn spirit stones.

A single tree cannot make a forest.

In the future, we will have to rely on our teammates to hunt monsters together.

There's no need to be so petty.

He also believed that Zhao Chunsheng would distribute the spoils relatively fairly.

Otherwise, morale will be low and the team will be unmanageable.

Upon hearing Shen Xuan's statement...

The way his teammates looked at him subtly changed.

Each one was filled with heartfelt gratitude.

Zhao Chunsheng led the Tie brothers to disassemble the materials on the armored crocodile.

Shen Xuan also finished collecting the crocodile blood.

At this moment, a group of demon hunters came over to watch from afar.

Wen Zijian stood in front of him, riding the Moon Blade Wheel and holding the Sun Blade Wheel, his face cold.

The group of demon-hunting cultivators paused for more than ten breaths.

Seeing that Wen Zijian was not someone to be trifled with, he eventually left quietly.

“When you go hunting, you can’t trust anyone except your teammates!” Xia Muqing explained from the side.

"Fellow Daoist Xia is right." Shen Xuan nodded slightly.

Half an hour later.

The armored crocodile has been almost completely decomposed.

All that was left was a pile of crocodile meat.

The Tie brothers took out two large animal bags and filled them with all the crocodile meat.

"The meat of the armored crocodile isn't very tasty. But it's a top-grade first-tier demonic beast, and it can sell for five or six spirit stones per pound!"

Xia Muqing said with a smile.

That's 400 pounds of crocodile meat!
It's worth over two thousand spirit stones!
This does not include the price of materials such as crocodile skin, crocodile teeth, crocodile claws, and crocodile bones.

Shen Xuan was secretly alarmed.

Hunting monsters can be so profitable!
"We were lucky this time! It's usually very difficult to hunt such a complete and top-quality carcass!"

Zhao Chunsheng looked around warily.

He beckoned, signaling Shi Xiangdong to drive the two greyhound puppet beasts to scout ahead and explore.

"Let's go back! Everyone be careful."

He and the Tie brothers filled their vehicle with materials from the demon beasts, and Wen Zijian consciously moved to the front of the group.

Xia Muqing and Shen Xuan walked side by side at the very back.

The group of seven cautiously made their way back.

Along the way, they encountered three more groups of demon-hunting cultivators. One of them even followed them for a while with ill intentions.

After Wen Zijian discovered their whereabouts, they gave up.

This also made Shen Xuan deeply realize the hardships of being a demon hunter.

They were facing not only ferocious monsters.

There are even more terrifying beings of the same kind than monsters.

"That's good. We're all demon hunters, and we know each other's strengths and weaknesses. We won't fight unless absolutely necessary!"

With the market entrance in sight, Xia Muqing could not hide her joy.

"The most terrifying are the Tribulation Cultivators; they don't care whether you gain anything or not. In their eyes, cultivators are just spirit stones!"

"Oh, right, there are also demonic cultivators, even more terrifying than tribulation cultivators! Extracting souls and refining spirits, raising corpses and summoning souls, there's nothing they wouldn't dare to do!"

"This haul is so good, we can rest and recuperate for several months!"

The Tie brothers were also overjoyed.

Iron Boss chuckled and said, "It's all thanks to Master Shen!"

Tie Lao Er said in a deep voice, "Master Shen is a good person!"

Shen Xuan's face darkened.

These two brothers don't even know how to compliment someone.

"We're all teammates, and we agreed to help each other out! Fellow Daoist Wen and Fellow Daoist Shi have worked the hardest in the team!"

"where!"

"It's my job!"

Wen Zijian and Shi Xiangdong said modestly.

This made Zhao Chunsheng glance at the two of them a few more times.

These two used to argue with him all the time, so when did they become so easy to talk to?

Once inside Qinglongwan Market, everyone completely relaxed.

The rest was left to Zhao Chunsheng and his team to handle.

Shen Xuan went home first.

He reported the good news to Jiang Xueqi: the demon-hunting team was safe and sound, and had successfully hunted a top-quality monster.

Afterwards, I took a relaxing hot bath in the bathhouse, washing away all the dust and grime.

My first hunting trip was thrilling but safe.

We also gained a lot of valuable experience.

Compared to the ferocity of monsters, the wickedness of people's hearts is even more sinister.

They also gained a clearer understanding of their own capabilities.

On land, with the added advantage of his many talents, his attack power is comparable to that of a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator!
As for in the water, although it hasn't been tested yet, based on comparisons from regular practice, its strength has increased tenfold!
Shen Xuan guessed that he could withstand the effects of other Foundation Establishment cultivators in the water.

Although they possess talents such as longevity, self-healing, and iron bones to enhance their physical body.

However, as we age, the decline of our vital energy and blood is inevitable.

"I still need to reach the Qi Refining stage as soon as possible and break through to the Foundation Establishment stage!"

Shen Xuan pondered to himself.

He has a keen sense of his own lifespan and physical condition.

"Strive to establish a solid foundation before the age of ninety!"

On a whim, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and made a decision.

The old man is brave and has great ambitions!
He aspires to grow stronger with age, becoming an evergreen tree in the cultivation world, achieving immortality and attaining enlightenment!
……

After taking a hot bath, Shen Xuan felt at ease.

After regaining his spiritual consciousness, he played a friendly match with his beloved wife, Ding Yuyao.

Ding Yuyao has been married to him for eight years.

He's completely changed.

From a young girl to a beautiful woman with a graceful figure.

Shedding its youthful naiveté, it has matured to the point where you might want to take a bite every now and then.

The body becomes increasingly soft and elastic.

A great battle ensued, plunging the world into darkness.

After Ding Yuyao repeatedly begged for mercy.

Shen Xuan finished his campaign and returned to the training room with an arrogant expression.

He poured a quarter of the armored crocodile's blood from his new storage bag.

After the mysterious jade talisman flashed with golden light...

[Plunderable Talents: Nail-Chewing, Impervious to All Poisons, Copper Bones and Iron Armor, Death Roll, Stealth and Disguise]

As expected of a top-grade first-tier demon beast, it possesses a whopping five bloodline talents!
After comparing various options, Shen Xuan ultimately chose the [Immune to All Poisons] talent.

[Talent: Immunity to All Poisons (28/100)]

【Daoyun: 72】

Shen Xuan was taken aback.

The Daoist essence he gained from plundering the Ironclad Crocodile's talent was far greater than he had imagined!
