C521 great harvest
"Hong!" A Man-Bear also fell to the ground, its butt blooming like a flower under the light of the copper mirror.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of beasts had been killed by the copper mirror. Every time a beast died, the copper mirror would shine with light. As time passed, the rust on the mirror would begin to melt.
"Treasures, this is definitely an incomparably powerful treasure. I've struck it rich, I've really struck it rich this time." Liu Du was extremely excited, he swung the copper mirror around, and suddenly, the number of beasts that died under the copper mirror increased.
What was even more strange was that when the wild beasts were killed by the explosion, the copper mirror seemed to be even more excited than he was. It was as if making the wild beasts' bodies explode was something that made it extremely excited.
Unknowingly, it was already dusk. Standing atop the mountain, Liu Du was in high spirits, his heart extremely satisfied. With this powerful treasure, his future existence would have a bit of protection.
Suddenly, a roar shocked Liu Du to the point that he almost fell to the ground.
In front of him, there was a twenty feet tall giant bear that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it pounced at him.
"Second level of the body cutting!" Liu Du gasped. He was not a match for this giant bear.
He anxiously retreated, and just as the huge bear palm was about to land, Liu Du clenched his teeth, and shined the bronze mirror forward.
It seemed as if it had met with some unfathomable thing as it turned around and ran. However, as soon as it ran, the copper mirror actually escaped from Liu Du's grasp and followed it.
The giant bear was terrified, first blood came out of its head, then its buttocks started to emit popping sounds, as if there was a terrifying object constantly attacking its body. The giant bear struggled with all its might, and finally revealed an expression of despair as it crashed to the ground, dead.
After the giant bear died, the bronze mirror "Sou" made a sound as it flew back into Liu Du's hand.
When the copper mirror returned to Liu Du's hands, he realized that the rust on the copper mirror had lessened.
"This... This is definitely a peerless treasure. " Liu Du looked at the copper mirror, even his breathing became agitated.
He recalled the introduction in the body cutting, that when there were powerful fierce beasts, they would have demonic core s in their bodies.
Liu Du seemed to be deep in thought as he walked over to the front of the fierce beast and searched its body. Finally, he found a fingernail-sized bead on the giant bear's head.
"This is the demonic core?" The body cutting had an introduction for it, the demonic core contained spirit energy, it could directly be consumed, furthermore, the spirit energy of the demonic core was extremely dense, once consumed, it would help increase one's cultivation. The higher the level of a demonic core, the more spirit energy it contained. Of course, not all demonic core could be swallowed directly, and if some of the stronger Demonic Beast were to swallow it in one go, they would explode and die without having a strong cultivation as a shield.
"I wonder if, after devouring this demonic core, I will be able to directly reach the second level of the body cutting?" Staring at the demonic core that was the size of a fingernail and smelling the fragrance off it, Liu Du felt that even his pores had relaxed. He wanted to swallow it down here, but he was also afraid that if he broke through, it would attract the attention of the other beasts, so he had no choice but to go back the way he came.
This mountain was filled with the stench of blood and was filled with thick, bloody mist. Luckily, this place was in the wilderness, so it was hard for others to detect it. Otherwise, it would cause a huge commotion.
After going back the way they came from, no one dared to approach Liu Du anymore. It was as if he had used the copper mirror to display his godly might and scared the creatures in the forest.
Liu Du could not wait and returned to the cave. He put the copper mirror and the demonic core to the side and closed his eyes to meditate. Before breaking through, one shouldn't be restless.
After a while, Liu Du slowly opened his eyes and looked at the demonic core.
Suddenly, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Why was there one more?
He clearly remembered that there was only one demonic core, where did the other one come from?
"Ah, that's not right. There's one more demonic core but my Spirit Stone is gone. Could it be that it's because of this copper mirror?" Liu Du checked and found that his Spirit Stone had disappeared without a trace.
"Just what kind of treasure is this copper mirror? How could it be so magical?" Liu Du studied the copper mirror, the more he looked, the more excited he got.
He could not forget the mystery of the copper mirror. All the beasts that were caught in its light all died without exception. Some died as their buttocks bloomed, while others died as their heads exploded.
In other words, not all berserk beasts died the same way. It seemed that the places where they vomited their blood were the most vulnerable areas of their bodies.
Liu Du didn't have time to think, he impatiently took out a demonic core and swallowed it.
Just as it entered his mouth, a sweet fragrance filled his mouth, and Liu Du was ecstatic. When the demonic core entered his stomach, the dense Spirit Qi spread out, and instantly flowed through Liu Du's body, straight to his Dantian.
With a "kacha" sound, something seemed to have shattered inside his body. Liu Du's entire body was enveloped in a layer of faint mist.
"Second level of the body cutting ?" Liu Du said softly, his eyes filled with unconcealable surprise.
From being a servant to an outer sect disciple, and from a mortal without any spiritual energy to being a disciple, Liu Du spent a total of four months. This span of time, was neither long nor short, but to Nature's Mystery Sect, it was definitely a miracle.
In these years, every year in the Nature's Mystery Sect, there would only be one servant who could be promoted to an outer sect disciple in a few years, and for outer sect disciples to train from the first level of body cutting to the second, it would not take less than two years.
"After reaching the second level of body cutting, you will be able to unleash the first Immortal technique, Fire Dragon Technique." Liu Du focused and opened the booklet.
"The Spiritual Energy of the world is for my use. When the Spiritual Energy enters my body, it catalyzes it out, it becomes a fire dragon." The Fire Dragon Technique described in the booklet was extremely simple.
Liu Du tried to cultivate according to the description, but no matter how much effort he put in, he could not get any results.
"Could it be that even celestial spells are this difficult to learn?" These were the few times that Liu Du had been depressed. He thought that as long as he managed to cultivate to the second level of body cutting, he would be able to easily use the Fire Dragon Technique.
"That's not right, there's still 'do as you please, success of the immortal arts'. Could it be because I was too deliberate and didn't succeed?" Liu Du flipped open the booklet again, and realized that there was another sentence, he vaguely understood it, and did not intend to do it intentionally. As expected, after a moment, a small fire snake shot out from Liu Du's finger, shining with a blue light.
"So it's like that." Liu Du continued to practice it a few more times and finally discovered the secret behind the Fire Dragon Technique.
After a long while, he stopped his cultivation, looked at the remaining demonic core and copper mirror, and carefully kept them among the Cosmic Bag.
"I have to keep this treasure well. If others see it, it will be a huge disaster."
His experience of rolling around in society since he was young had allowed Liu Du to develop a cautious personality. He was well aware that he could not reveal his wealth. Outer sect disciples could fight with their lives on the line for a mere pellet and Spirit Stone, not to mention if they knew that he had such a precious treasure.
The origins of this copper mirror must be shallow. If he didn't collect it carefully, it would definitely attract the attention of people who wanted to do something about it.
"In the past, Old Patriarch Tianji had also studied this copper mirror. I wonder if he knew of the wonders of this copper mirror." Liu Du thought.
But very quickly, he overthrew his own theory, if the Old Patriarch Tianji were to truly research the secrets of the copper mirror, how would he not keep the treasure and leave it to be.
This is exactly what vulgar man said, that this treasure is fated to be yours. If not for the fact that Liu Du and the copper mirror were fated, why would he be able to bring out such a great benefit when other people obtained the copper mirror?
Liu Du lowered his head and thought, he looked at the demonic core, and when he thought about how he did not even have a single pill or Spirit Stone, he felt like taking the demonic core to the pill house to exchange for some.
Liu Du walked out of the cave. Just as he walked a few steps, he retreated, because he saw an unfriendly outer sect disciple outside the cave staring at him with hostility.
"Fourth level of the body cutting ?" Liu Du's expression changed. This outer sect disciple was standing guard outside his cave abode and had come with ill intentions.
In these past few days, he had gotten used to the terrifying phenomenon of the outer sect disciples killing and killing, and he was already able to guess quite a bit about the purpose of this outer sect disciple's visit.
He took a few steps back, cupped his hands, and bowed towards the outer sect disciple: "Senior brother, may I know what is the matter?"
As long as there was a chance of survival, he wasn't willing to give up. Fighting against this outer sect disciple, wasn't that just courting death?
"Liu Du?" The outer court disciple frowned and said coldly.
"That's me." Liu Du did not know what the outer sect disciple was up to, and answered carefully.
"Hand over the Spirit Stone and become my boy, otherwise, die!" The outer sect disciple grunted coldly.
Liu Du's expression changed greatly. This outer sect disciple had put forward such an excessive request the moment he arrived, he had definitely come prepared. He knew what a kid represented, and he was an outer sect disciple that was no better than a servant. In the eyes of some high level outer sect disciples, they were no different from servants.
"Senior Sister Qin let me stay in this cave. Senior Brother, what do you mean?" Liu Du anxiously said, at this time, he could only skin the Senior Sister Qin like a tiger.
No matter what, the Senior Sister Qin had lent the cave to him, and she would never be someone else's boy. The boy's status was low, and she did not get any cultivation resources, so she might as well just be a servant.
However, the outer sect disciple's expression first changed, then he said savagely: "Hmph, how could Senior Sister Qin remember you, ant. You did as you were told, otherwise, the consequences wouldn't be something you can bear."
He didn't know how many outer sect disciples had died to him. Recently, he was going to charge into the fifth floor of the body cutting, and he needed Spirit Stone and pills.
He also knew that Liu Du had obtained the cave which the Senior Sister Qin had gifted him. He knew that the Senior Sister Qin was only to repay this person's kindness and did not treat him as a trusted aide. Perhaps, it would not be long before he would forget about this guy.
In this kind of situation, he could only take the risk and force Liu Du to become his servant. Naturally, he would occupy this cave and after a period of time, the Senior Sister Qin would probably not even remember Liu Du as his servant anymore. At that time, he would be free to do whatever he wanted.
