The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

Deep in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains.

Yuhezi was hiding in a quagmire, motionless, trying hard to conceal her breath, with three talismans stuck on her body.

A terrifying aura emanated from above the swamp, and the surrounding environment, which should have been filled with the croaking of frogs and the chirping of birds, was now silent.

Tsk!

The giant bird hundreds of feet in the air let out a loud and shrill cry. It was very handsome, with green feathers as bright as knives and eyes as deep as black holes.

The giant bird was searching hard for something here, but unfortunately found nothing.

There was no other way. The giant bird finally gathered a gust of wind, and green wind blades appeared around its body, slashing down at the mud pit.

Boom boom boom!

Just for a moment.

The mire was split into pieces by countless wind blades, and all the living creatures in the mire were annihilated. The mire of dozens of miles turned into huge pits in an instant, but there was nothing in them.

Seeing this, the giant bird became even more ferocious and began to destroy the surroundings crazily.

A few moments ago, Xihezi in the mud felt a huge breath surging above his head and countless spiritual energy gathering. He had a bad premonition and immediately took out a personal talisman in his hand.

This talisman has complex patterns and emits tiny void fluctuations as soon as it appears.

Xi Hezi activated the talisman without hesitation.

In a blink of an eye, the person appeared thousands of miles away.

The space became blurry.

Yuhezi's figure appeared in the air. As soon as she landed, she took out four small flags and inserted them around her. Ripples appeared in the space, and she and the flags gradually disappeared.

Inside the formation, Xi Hezi saw that the formation was taking effect, and immediately took out a pill from his storage bag, sat cross-legged, and began to practice his skills to heal his wounds.

three days later.

"This opportunity is really hard to come by."

Thinking of her experiences during this period, Yuhezi felt a little scared.

Xi Hezi's face was pale and her body was in a disheveled state at this time. Looking at the talisman in her hand that turned to ashes, she felt a pang of pain in her flesh. She touched the bulging storage bag and finally felt a little comforted.

Looking down again, he saw a bloody hole the size of two fingers on the left side of his abdomen. The surrounding area was charred black and emitted a foul odor.

Looking closely, there were threads of flesh moving in the wound, as if it was trying to heal, but a black streak was firmly attached to the flesh, blocking the healing process.

Feeling the condition of her body, Xi Hezi was thankful for her good fortune: "Fortunately, I survived, thanks to that talisman..."

This third-level teleportation talisman was the one he had found in that cave. Once activated, one could instantly escape thousands of miles away. The value of this life-saving talisman was inestimable.

There was also a third-level talisman inheritance in the cave. When he arrived at the Beast Taming Sect, the sect's top leaders did not take it back, and did not even ask about it. Instead, they let Xi Hezi keep it.

It was also with the help of the talisman inheritance that Xi Hezi was able to cultivate to his current level of cultivation.

Although it was a huge risk, as long as he could return to the sect alive, Xihezi's path would take a big step forward.

……

night.

Li Qing flew to the edge of the sect, a very remote place, surrounded by ancient trees blocking his view.

In one of the dead trees, there is a tree hole on the main trunk at the top. The entrance of the hole is only the size of a fist. If you get closer, you can see fluffy weeds inside, blocking the view inside.

Li Qing stood at the entrance of the cave, stretched his neck, and cleared out the weeds.

Finally, he held a black cloth bag in his mouth and opened it with his claws. Inside the bag was a bag full of Soul-Feeding Pills and two shriveled soul fruits.

Looking at the cloth bag in his hand, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, no accidents had occurred so far.

Otherwise, this step of transforming into a demon would definitely become a huge chasm blocking his path to becoming a demon.

This amount is definitely enough to support him in transforming into a monster.

Holding the bag, Li Qing carefully flew out of the woods. He had now left the territory of the Beast Taming Sect and arrived in the wilderness.

Now Li Qing was not flying aimlessly. He identified a direction, tried hard to increase his speed, and flew straight to one place.

Not long after, Li Qing flew for more than ten miles and arrived at his destination.

This is a small valley.

As for why we didn’t fly farther, it was just to avoid any more trouble.

This is no longer the mortal world. He may encounter monks or monsters at any time. He is carrying a bag of soul-feeding pills, so he would be in danger if he was seen.

Li Qing had recently investigated this valley for a long time. There were no monsters or spiritual energy. There was nothing special about it.

And there is no way into the valley except by crossing the mountain.

There was no possibility of monsters, cultivators, or mortals appearing here, which provided him with enough time to survive until he had completely digested the Soul-Feeding Pill.

Unless he is under a bad luck, he can still be discovered even if he is so cautious.

The valley was surrounded by mountains on all sides, and Li Qing landed on a cliff with its back to the Beast Taming Sect.

There is a crack here, as wide as two palms, enough to accommodate two Li Qings at the same time, and there is a different world inside the crack.

Li Qing raised his jade claws and walked in slowly.

After entering, the space suddenly became wider. It was a cave, two square meters in size. It was a bit narrow for an adult, but just right for Li Qing.

After putting the cloth bag away, Li Qing began to move in and out of the crack to build a bird's nest. This was something he was already familiar with.

In a short while, the bird's nest was built.

Look around.

Li Qing was very satisfied with the new home he had chosen. Although it was not far from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range and the Beast Taming Sect, it was deserted and few people passed by, which really made Li Qing feel at ease.

After coming to his senses, Li Qing flew into the bird's nest, put the cloth bag on it, and lay down. Then he couldn't wait to open the cloth bag and took out a Soul-Feeding Pill and swallowed it.

He had been craving for this Soul-Nourishing Pill for a long time, and now he could finally enjoy it to his heart's content.

As the elixir entered his stomach, warm currents surged through his body. Li Qing could feel that these warm currents were transforming his body, which made him feel very comfortable.

Letting the warm current flow through his body, Li Qing slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

It’s not that he’s sleepy, it’s related to the cultivation knowledge he learned from Xiao Chong in the past three years.

Before transforming, monsters rely on rare treasures or devouring other monsters to advance, and sleeping is the best way to digest this power.

Although the monsters had low intelligence in the early stages and had no specific methods of cultivation.

However, they can absorb the surrounding spiritual energy by sleeping, and can also better digest the treasures they have consumed.

This is the most suitable practice method for them, and the body instinctively makes the best solution.

The next morning.

Li Qing opened his eyes, and the sunlight shone through the cracks onto his body, which was a bit dazzling.

Feel the power of your body.

Li Qing was not surprised that he did not transform into a demon. Xi Hezi had long said that his aptitude was just like the lowest of the five spiritual roots among cultivators.

He would be very lucky if he could transform into a demon in this life. When he has a child in the future, he can proudly say that he has given a bright future to the descendants who will inherit his bloodline.

However, Li Qing was not discouraged. This was only the first pill, and including the one he had taken before, it was only the sixth pill. Now he had forty-three pills left in his pocket. The future was promising!
