Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#481 - Conquer the Posha Tree

A moment later, Sauron finally calmed down, and he reluctantly put away the Wings of Space.

He stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "In this round, I did lose indeed.

But I cannot sink into despair because of this. Although these Wings of Space are good, they also have many hidden dangers. I must find Li Chengfeng to help me completely perfect them and eliminate those drawbacks."

Immediately, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly turned to look at Long Xing and suggested, "Commander Long, how about we do this…

You take my Wings of Space to find Li Chengfeng. He might help for your sake. My grievances with him are already deep, and he is deliberately trying to manipulate me. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Long Xing only smiled slightly and shook his head dismissively, "That won't do.

I have already given him the Eye of Truth. In exchange, he also gave me these superior Wings of Space.

If I go to him again, the favor will only diminish with each use.

You should think of a way yourself and see if you can come up with something that can move him."

Deep within the Dragon Return Cave, Li Chengfeng shuttled through it, searching for treasures, when his mind suddenly stirred.

The Book of Sins appeared in his palm, depicting a miniature image of Sauron, lifelike, as if he was furious and filled with resentment towards Li Chengfeng.

Seeing this, Li Chengfeng couldn't help but laugh loudly, "Sauron, ah Sauron, even the wisest of men can make a mistake. Greed is the source of all evil.

I gave you the Wings of Space as bait to track you. Only by abandoning greed and finding another way can you escape my grasp.

However, if you are obsessed and unrepentant, even if you are at the ends of the earth, you will not be able to escape my control.

Although I am currently lacking in strength, when I reach the Half-Step God Transformation stage, I will definitely make you regret your initial decision."

After saying that, Li Chengfeng gently closed the Book of Sins, and his mind raced. He instantly teleported to the Living World Space.

Here, Loulan was busy cultivating, sweat dripping down, carefully planting spiritual herbs one by one in the medicinal garden, like a diligent gardener.

Seeing Li Chengfeng arrive, Loulan hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully saluted, "Fellow Daoist Li, it seems you have encountered another fortunate event.

This silt is exceptionally fertile. Using it to cultivate spiritual herbs will surely promote their vigorous growth and exceptional quality."

Li Chengfeng gazed at Loulan and asked gently, "Loulan, do you seem to have something difficult to say? Feel free to speak. Since we are close friends, we should help each other with all our strength."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Loulan's face, and he said, "Brother Li is insightful. Loulan Bloodcloud has passed away, and as his incarnation, I have also gained independent consciousness.

However, limited to the Qi Training stage, it is difficult to make any progress, let alone pursue the path of longevity.

A hundred years later, if I vanish into smoke, who will help you manage this world? Moreover, my strength is weak, and even performing the Rain Summoning Technique and planting techniques feels strenuous."

Li Chengfeng smiled and said, "So that's the case. Actually, I have already planned out your future.

You also know that my puppets cannot grow on their own, and you impulsively seized it back then.

However, I can use puppetry to carry out special refinement, allowing you to improve your cultivation through puppetry, without needing to fight, just collecting materials and gradually cultivating according to the puppet's grade.

I heard that there are Immortal Puppets in the Immortal Realm, with unparalleled power and boundless magic, even capable of immortality. Isn't this a blessing in disguise for you?"

Loulan's lips trembled slightly, and then a bright light shone in his eyes, "Is this true?"

Li Chengfeng replied with a smile, "Absolutely true.

I did have this intention for a long time, because I still need a competent gardener.

I have been looking for so long, and no one can replace you, so I decided to improve your strength."

As he spoke, Li Chengfeng handed him a jade slip and a storage bag, "In the medicine garden, you should focus on studying puppetry, starting with making small puppets to practice. Once your skills are mature, try refining yourself.

You don't need to worry about the materials, I will prepare them for you. The resources I have on hand are enough for you to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage. How about it?"

Loulan's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Fellow Daoist Li, thank you, thank you! I knew you were a sentimental and righteous person, and you would never mistreat me.

My diligent work has finally been rewarded. I am truly grateful!"

He took the jade slip and hung the storage bag on his waist. Before he could examine it closely, he continued to busy himself with the management and cultivation of the spiritual herbs.

Li Chengfeng inspected the medicine garden and was extremely satisfied with Loulan's work, secretly praising him in his heart.

Then, with a thought, his figure disappeared, and in an instant, he had arrived in the Hell Space.

Above the Blood Pool, the Bodhi Tree was tightly locked by iron chains, rising and falling. Li Chengfeng's appearance added a bit more somberness to this eerie place.

Li Chengfeng said with a smile, "Bodhi Tree, you don't need to pretend to be confused.

I already know your tree spirit and extraordinary strength. That's why I bound you.

You pretended to be weak, could it be that you intended to devour the Great Ape King to achieve your supreme Dao? Am I right?"

The Bodhi Tree stood still, as if it did not react to Li Chengfeng's words.

Li Chengfeng continued to smile, "I am different from others. They are greedy for your effects of purifying the mind and removing inner demons, but I don't care about these."

With a thought, the Bodhi Tree was instantly pulled to the bottom of the pool by the Blood Pool, and the blood-colored chains suddenly tightened, intending to refine it.

At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded, "Wait! I admit defeat. I never thought that after enduring until now, I would fall into your hands."

A phantom slowly emerged from above the Blood Pool. It was only a projection, but Li Chengfeng did not intend to let it go.

The phantom repeatedly bowed to Li Chengfeng, begging, "This old man has been lingering on for a hundred thousand years, and my cultivation is only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. I originally wanted to devour spiritual energy to seek advancement to the middle stage.

The path of cultivation is already full of difficulties for beings like us, let alone for my tree body.

Even so, I have never harmed any fellow Daoists. Are you being too harsh on me?"

Li Chengfeng responded with a cold smile, "I am not a righteous person. What I believe in is the demonic Dao, where strength is paramount.

If you are not strong enough and fall into my hands, then don't talk about fairness.

Help me overcome difficulties, and I may spare your life; otherwise, I will not only refine your tree body, but also erase your intelligence, re-cultivate you, and use you for my own purposes.

Give me an answer within three breaths."

After speaking, he began to count down, "One, two, three…"

The Bodhi Tree spirit was almost half-dead with anger. Everyone treated the Bodhi Tree with respect, regarding it as a treasure, but Li Chengfeng went against the grain, as if he didn't care about it at all. Without even waiting for it to react, he was already prepared to take extreme measures.

It originally thought that Li Chengfeng would give it a long time to consider, but it didn't expect the other party to only count three numbers, clearly not giving it any time to hesitate.

It hurriedly said, "I am willing to serve you as my master and plant a soul restriction."

Then, it respectfully bowed, "Master, this humble one greets you."

The longer one lives, the more one fears death. This is absolutely true.

The Bodhi Tree had lived for a hundred thousand years, painstakingly cultivating to the Nascent Soul stage. For a being like it, every bit of progress was extremely difficult, and it took tens of thousands of years to develop intelligence.

Therefore, under Li Chengfeng's threat, it quickly chose to compromise. Li Chengfeng had accurately grasped this point and put pressure on it.

Before the words finished, Li Chengfeng had already cast a restriction, deeply imprinting it into the Bodhi Tree's soul.

The old tree spirit didn't dare to resist in the slightest, and could only allow its soul to be planted with a restriction.

Then, with a thought, Li Chengfeng, the Bodhi Tree rose from the pool and landed beside him.

The projection on the tree body was still that of a white-faced, white-bearded, smiling old man. He respectfully said, "Master, in this environment, my Bodhi Tree will be difficult to grow, and I fear that I will gradually wither, which will not be beneficial to your improvement in cultivation."

Hearing this, Li Chengfeng smiled and said, "This place is only for suppressing you. I will arrange for you to go to a more suitable place to grow. You don't need to worry."
