I have been bound in a forbidden place for five hundred years. Why are you crying when I am a casual

"Brother, are we really going to escort this kid?"

"Yeah, big brother, we are demons, so there is no need to keep promises."

"If you ask me, we should just take action now and capture this kid. He can take out so many top-grade spirit stones in one go, so he must have a lot of spirit stones on him. If we earn this much from him, I'm afraid we can collect enough spirit stones for the rest of our lives!"

"..."

An hour later, on the stone steps of the Xuanwu Secret Realm.

The bear monsters, who had been walking for a long time, finally couldn't help but reveal the greed they had not deliberately concealed from the beginning when they looked at Gu Xiu.

As agreed, they had already taken Gu Xiu for a while.

It's time to teach this human cultivator a lesson.

What, the world is dangerous!

However, when the four bear monsters urged them, the leading bear monster did not give a direct order. Instead, he frowned, looked at Gu Xiu, and asked his companions:

"Which floor are we on now?"

"Thirty-five thousand one hundred and twenty-six floors." Someone answered.

The leading bear demon frowned immediately: "In such a short time, we've already covered half of the way. Don't you guys notice that there's something wrong with this kid?"

Ok?

Something's wrong?

Everyone was puzzled, but the leading bear demon reminded them, "Fools! The reason we can barely withstand the pressure of this Xuanwu Secret Realm is simply because we have demon blood in us."

As soon as these words came out.

The other four immediately understood what their leader meant and looked towards Gu Xiu in front of them:

"Yes, even for us, the pressure we endure becomes greater as time goes on. This kid only relies on our blood beads. How could he be completely unfazed by the pressure on his body here?"

"He's hiding his strength?"

"I'm afraid he's not just hiding his strength. This kid is no ordinary guy. His physical strength seems extraordinary. I even feel like he's no worse than us!"

"But how is that possible? It's impossible for a human cultivator to have a powerful body, let alone be able to withstand the pressure in this Xuanwu Secret Realm, right?"

After calming down, the other four bear monsters also reacted immediately.

Something is wrong!

There's something very wrong with this human cultivator! One hundred percent, ten thousand percent wrong!

"The five of us brothers are here just to make a fortune."

"There's a saying among humans: 'It's better to be safe than sorry.' This kid isn't right. Although we want to make a fortune, we have to be careful not to get ourselves into trouble. So let's wait and see."

"As for taking action..."

The boss is the boss after all, and the leading bear demon is quite spirited. After thinking for a while, he finally gave up and took action immediately: "Anyway, according to the agreement, we still have half the journey to go. Let's see who this kid is first!"

The other four bear demons nodded repeatedly.

There were not many monsters coming this time, but those who could stand out from countless competitors and control the monsters between the 30,000-story wooden house and the 40,000-story attic were naturally not stupid. Seeing that they could not see through Gu Xiu's strength, the five bear monsters naturally did not dare to act rashly and planned to make more attempts.

In their opinion, they were letting Gu Xiu live a little longer.

Can……

In Gu Xiu's opinion.

This is also the self-rescue of these five bear monsters.

Gu Xiu's physical body had already broken through the spirit essence realm a long time ago. Although his soul was suppressed, the main test was all on his physical body. To be honest, Gu Xiu's current situation was such that he could basically walk sideways here without any problem.

As long as he doesn't encounter any special monsters or top beings like the Demon Emperor, Gu Xiu really has nothing to fear.

But he still chose to take out 500,000 spirit stones and follow the five bear monsters.

destination.

Nature doesn't really need their protection.

Gu Xiu has always been a cautious person. Since he has to hide his identity, he should hide it completely. Five hundred thousand spirit stones is a huge number for others, but for him who has just emptied a mine of top-grade spirit stones.

Not worth mentioning.

Not to mention.

For Gu Xiu, the value of the blood bead of the bear demon clan is far more than 500,000 spirit stones.

"This demon race bloodline bead is indeed unique."

"Using secret techniques, one can condense one's own bloodline power into a bead. This will allow the bloodline in one's body to simulate the power of the demon race's bloodline without causing any negative effects on the user."

"It's not just a simulation of the bloodline power, but to a certain extent, it can obtain a portion of the bloodline power contained in the bloodline bead!"

Gu Xiu murmured. Along the way, he was not only observing the layers of stairs.

more.

Still studying the blood beads.

He was very interested in this thing. Perhaps for the demon race, this blood bead was nothing special and they could have as many as they wanted. But for Gu Xiu, this blood bead that could allow people to temporarily simulate blood and even temporarily borrow some of the blood power was extremely precious.

The most special thing about it is.

"After I use this bloodline bead, some of the bloodline power within it will enter my body under the guidance of my Demon Ancestor Dao Platform and transform into power that will remain in my body forever!"

Gu Xiu's eyes were extremely bright.

This is what he really likes!

When other people use the Bloodline Bead, they can only temporarily borrow the power stored in the Bloodline Bead. Once it is used up, everything is over. It is a bit similar to a talisman, or similar to those special magic weapons that can be used by the Supreme Strike.

But Gu Xiu is different.

He possesses a Taoist platform that is constructed with the blood of the demon race. If it is fully activated, even most of the demon race can be suppressed by his blood.

Originally, this platform was dispensable to Gu Xiu. It was useless, but also useful. It was useful, but rarely used. However, if it was combined with his current body in the Spirit Realm and the bloodline bead containing the power of his bloodline, it would be very useful.

The situation is different.

The power of the blood bead will attract the demon clan's Taoist platform the moment it enters Gu Xiu's body. Combined with Gu Xiu's body in the spiritual realm, these blood power will be retained in Gu Xiu's body and absorbed by his body bit by bit.

Although the absorption speed is not fast, it can even be said to be very slow, and at most he can only absorb less than 10% of the blood in a blood bead.

but……

This is also absorption!

This was unprecedented. Gu Xiu even asked the five bear monsters again, and the results he got were exactly the same.

Bloodline beads are disposable and do not contain the original bloodline.

Therefore, it is impossible for it to be absorbed by humans. There has never been any monster in history that can absorb the blood power from the blood bead and evolve its own blood.

As for the human race...

That is even more unbelievable.

But in fact?

Gu Xiu just happened to do something that should have been completely impossible. Not only did he successfully use the bear monster's blood bead, he even absorbed some of the blood power contained in the blood bead into his body.

This is the bloodline of the demon clan.

Perhaps it would be negligible for the improvement of the cultivator, but for the physical body, the demon bloodline is almost a natural agent for strengthening the physical body.

Especially Gu Xiu, who has already entered the Divine Essence Realm.

He obtained the Wanyuan Body Tempering Technique. Although it was not complete, it was at least enough for cultivation in the Divine Essence Realm. One of the methods in the Wanyuan Body Tempering Technique was to absorb the blood of all races, learn from their strengths and overcome their weaknesses, and take the Divine Essence to a higher level. Before, Gu Xiu was not sure how to do this.

But this blood bead.

But it made Gu Xiu realize how to continue to improve his physical body.

Just like now, although he was climbing the stone steps, Gu Xiu was actually slowly absorbing the power contained in the blood bead. He could clearly feel that some of the power in the blood bead was breaking through the flesh and blood, entering the bones, and even reaching the bone marrow.

Bone marrow is used to produce blood.

The greatest function of the Divine Essence Realm is to change one's own bone marrow, thereby changing one's own blood vessels, and relying on the blood to flow throughout the body, strengthening every inch of one's body bit by bit.

Although there are not many of these blood beads, the blood power contained in them is not much.

But Gu Xiu could still feel that the limited power, while changing his essence, also made his blood and even every part of his body begin to become different.

Clenched his fists.

The improvement is minimal, but it is indeed improving.

more importantly.

"This blood bead relies mainly on the demon beast's talent. I am a human, so naturally I don't have such talent. But from my point of view, this is actually a very crude method, which is why the power of the blood bead is relatively weak."

"perhaps……"

"I can find a way to collect the blood beads and then refine them into blood pills to maximize their effects and make them easier to absorb!"

If you look at a leopard through a tube, you can see the whole body.

Although this statement was a bit exaggerated, Gu Xiu really relied on this blood bead to see many directions that he had never imagined before.

More opportunities that were not planned before.

In fact, it is not uncommon for human cultivators to use the power of demon bloodlines and even use it to temper their bodies. It can even be said that there is already a complete route, and the best method is it.

Just kill!

He continued to kill the demons, refine them into pills, and extract all the power essence from their blood treasures. He then combined them with spiritual medicines that could help human cultivators absorb and refine them, and eventually they became extremely precious pills.

This method is simple and direct, but it is against the will of nature and can easily lead to backlash from the demons.

But if you just want the bloodline beads...

That's different.

Although it is not very easy for the demon clan to condense this thing, it is definitely not too difficult. At most, it will consume a little of its own blood and energy when condensing the blood beads, and it can be recovered basically after a while.

This means that Gu Xiu can obtain a large number of blood beads through many methods!

Then he absorbed the power into the essence of his own body, making his body stronger and stronger, and even becoming the strongest body that gathered the blood of all demons.

And if the blood beads could be refined into pills, they might be even more powerful.

Look at it this way.

These 500,000 spirit stones were exchanged for a direction for Gu Xiu to cultivate his physical strength in the future!

value!

Well worth it!

Not to mention, these 500,000 spirit stones may not necessarily be given.

Because he noticed.

As they got closer to the 40,000-story wooden building, the five bear monsters looked at him with increasingly hostile eyes...
