Practice Remembering You

Shi Dongdong's words are absolutely sincere.

Wu Mengjie nodded and accepted Shi Dongdong's suggestion, saying that he would focus on cultivation first and deal with other things later.

Shi Dongdong was very satisfied to see Wu Mengjie listen to advice like this: "You are really good for listening to advice and having a full meal! I like it!"

Although he knew that Shi Dongdong's last three words did not mean that, Wu Mengjie still felt his heart beating fast.

After a long time, the two finally dealt with the bloody corpse tree.

Shi Dongdong let out a light breath, stood up tiredly, stretched, and then opened his cherry-red mouth. These materials were pulled and flowed neatly into Shi Dongdong's mouth, shrinking rapidly in the process.

In an instant, the area in front was cleared and the materials were placed in Shi Dongdong's stomach. This scene opened Wu Mengjie's eyes.

"Are we going to go inside next?" Wu Mengjie asked.

"Wait a minute, the things haven't been collected yet."

"Anything else?" Wu Mengjie looked at the site that had been cleaned up.

Shi Dongdong pointed at the tree roots on the ground: "Don't forget what I said before, these flesh and blood corpse trees are born from the bodies of parasites, which means there are corpses of monks under the roots. If a monk cultivates for a long enough time, he will definitely have some resources to rely on. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Ah? So what you mean, senior, is digging graves?" Wu Mengjie asked tentatively.

"Snapped!"

Shi Dongdong jumped up and hit Wu Mengjie on the head. "What do you mean by digging a grave? That's too harsh. It sounds like grave robbery. Besides, this isn't a graveyard. How can it be called digging a grave? This is called activating dead resources, or redistributing resources."

"Oh." Wu Mengjie scratched his head.

Then Shi Dongdong opened his mouth and spit out a shovel and a pickaxe, and the two of them took one and started digging on the spot.

As the two were digging, they suddenly smelled a stench of a corpse underground. Wu Mengjie was planning to continue digging deeper, but Shi Dongdong stopped him, filled the soil back with a shovel, and then took Wu Mengjie to dig in another place.

Although Wu Mengjie was somewhat puzzled by this behavior, he did not ask immediately.

When they reached another tree root, they dug for a while. When the soil became thin enough, another stench of corpse came out. Similarly, Shi Dongdong stopped the digging again and took Wu Mengjie to another place.

Wu Mengjie couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Senior, don't we have to get something from these monks? Why do we stop digging every time when we are about to find something? Has the plan changed?"

Shi Dongdong seemed to have guessed that Wu Mengjie would ask about this, and explained to him: "After a cultivator practices, his body will be strengthened as his realm improves. The higher his cultivation level, the more extraordinary his body will be.

When a person's cultivation reaches the third level, his body will undergo a complete transformation and transcend the mortal world. Even if he dies at this time, his corpse will not rot like a mortal's, but will turn into an invisible substance and slowly dissolve. After several years of transformation, it will once again become the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The corpses of cultivators above level three will not rot, which means there will be no corpse odor.

On the contrary, if one's cultivation has not reached the third level, although the physical body has been greatly strengthened, it still belongs to the category of mortal body and will rot and produce corpse odor after death.

No matter how much a second-level cultivator accumulates throughout his life, he may not accumulate anything good. But it is different for a third-level cultivator. The chance of obtaining good things is much higher.

I moved to another place when I smelled the stench of a corpse. This was to improve efficiency, because the person below must be a second-level cultivator, and there would be no gain if we dug him out."

“So that’s how it is.” Wu Mengjie suddenly realized, “So a third-level cultivator won’t decay after death. This is the first time I’ve heard of this.”

"There are still many things you don't know." Shi Dongdong put his hands on his waist proudly: "Follow me in the future, you will learn a lot more."

"Then I will follow you for the rest of my life!" Wu Mengjie said with his own thoughts.

"Haha! In that case, you will be my little brother from now on." Shi Dongdong laughed and patted Wu Mengjie's lower back.

The two continued to search and dig. This time they did not smell the stench of a corpse, which meant that the person who died underneath was a cultivator of level three or above. So the two sped up the digging and soon dug out the cultivator's body.

Most of the corpse's features have disappeared, and judging from the shape of the body, it should be a male, just a more feminine type.

The corpse was wearing a lavender robe with a complex pattern on the chest.

Shi Dongdong pointed at the pattern with a shovel and said, "This is the emblem of the Yueying Sect. The deceased was a disciple of the Yueying Sect. This area is managed by the Yueying Sect. It is normal for the cultivator to be a member of the Yueying Sect."

Then he started to search for things from the other person.

After searching hard for sixty-three times, he only found a photo stone on the other party, nothing else.

"Damn it!" Shi Dongdong was a little angry: "I spent so much effort, but I only have this little thing. I got excited for nothing!"

Then Shi Dongdong cursed and reburied the body with Wu Mengjie, and bowed simply, after all, he had taken the other party's things.

Wu Mengjie was at a loss for words when seeing this contrasting behavior. He felt that he respected the deceased, but at the same time, he did not fully respect him.

The two of them dug for a long time, and Wu Mengjie's true energy had almost recovered, so they finished digging.

There are a total of 357 flesh-and-blood corpse trees here, and there are a total of 43 monks with cultivation reaching the third level under the trees.

The total harvest this time included six image stones, twenty materials for alchemy, thirteen materials for refining tools, and seventeen talismans. There were two spiritual tools, one was a necklace and the other was a flying boat, neither of which was an offensive spiritual tool.

The necklace has the effect of nourishing the spirit, and can also resist some direct attacks from spiritual consciousness.

The flying boat is a flying spiritual device, usually only the size of a palm. When using it, one only needs to inject true energy into the flying boat, and then the flying boat will expand and become larger. After expansion, the flying boat is five meters long and two meters wide, with two rows of seats on it.

The flying boat only needs to be opened with true Qi when it is first used. When it is fully unfolded, the flying boat will spontaneously absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to maintain its shape and move on its own.

Although the speed of the flying boat is much slower than that of a cultivator flying directly, its advantage is that the cultivator does not need to expend energy all the time and can continuously release true qi to drive it.

If you want to go somewhere, you can set the location, and then during the flight, the monk can practice on the flying boat.

Of the two spiritual weapons, Shi Dongdong took the flying boat and gave the necklace to Wu Mengjie.

For Wu Mengjie, his cultivation has not yet reached the fourth level, and his mental strength is not particularly strong.

Start nurturing your spirit now. When you are ready to break through to the fourth level of spiritual consciousness in the future, strong mental power can reduce the difficulty of the breakthrough.

In addition, if Wu Mengjie is attacked by spiritual consciousness, the necklace can also reduce the damage. Wu Mengjie realized Shi Dongdong's intentions and was very satisfied with the result.

As for other things, each person still gets half.

Then the two continued to walk deeper into the cave.

After a while, they entered a place with many stalactites. The surrounding walls were covered with exposed crystals that were glowing faintly.

The two men stepped forward to look at the crystals, however, these crystals only looked tempting, but were actually of no use to the monks.

"Hulu~"

There was a breathing sound coming from deep in the cave. The sound was heavy and low, as if it came from a very deep place.

Wu Mengjie and Shi Dongdong looked at each other and realized that this should be the breath of a monster, but neither of them sensed any demonic aura.

Shi Dongdong immediately expanded his spiritual sense and looked deep into the cave.

The further forward the spiritual consciousness moved, the more it noticed the increasing sound of breathing, and it was obvious that the monster was right in front.

But as his spiritual sense moved forward, Shi Dongdong's face gradually became worse. In the end, Shi Dongdong's spiritual sense had stretched to its limit, but he still did not observe the figure of the monster.

Then this most likely means that the monster is too powerful.
