14: Parasitism, mutual benefit and win-win
Luo Xiu took it and swallowed it without hesitation. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Master, this thing can really suppress the throbbing in my body."
Li Wuji also noticed Luo Xiu's changes. The rampant demonic energy on the other party was indeed suppressed somewhat.
Moreover, there was a hint of clarity in his eyes. Looking at the Qing Shen Spiritual Grass in his hand, he made up his mind.
"There aren't many spiritual medicines. Since it's effective, do you dare to take a gamble?"
"Master, feel free to experiment. Luo Xiu's life burns for you!" Saying this, Luo Xiu immediately knelt on one knee respectfully to salute.
"Good!"
As the energy in the Editor in his mind decreased, the Qing Shen Spiritual Grass in his hand disappeared and was replaced by a mass of transparent liquid.
"Come on!"
"Yes!" Luo Xiu nodded and swallowed it in one gulp. The next moment, he painfully collapsed onto the ground.
Black and red blood seeped out. To prevent making any noise, he directly shrunk his body.
Before long, he was enveloped in blood and transformed into a blood-red egg. A hint of worry appeared in Li Wuji's eyes.
"Keep fighting. Whether you can be reborn through blood depends on yourself!"
On the other side, Li Mingxuan lay on the bed after washing. His body was strong and well-defined. Looking at the cultivation resources on the table beside him, he couldn't help but clench his fists.
"older brother, I will never let those rats hurt you!"
Before Li Mingxuan's thought finished, a muffled voice sounded in his mind.
"Kid, with just you?"
The sudden change startled Li Mingxuan. He immediately did a sit-up and vigilantly looked around.
He even directly took out a long spear in his hand. "Who is it? Come out!"
Li Mingxuan softly shouted. As he spoke, he moved towards the door. He guessed that people from the Beast God Sect had arrived, and he had to protect his older brother's safety.
"Kid, you're quite vigilant."
The voice sounded again, but as he spoke, the four walls of the room were instantly covered by a layer of black substance. In the blink of an eye, the surroundings were completely enveloped.
Li Mingxuan was startled by this. He immediately thrust towards the wall like a divine dragon flicking its tail, but with a clang, the black substance was not damaged at all.
Instead, he was shaken back several steps. Feeling the pain in the web of his hand, his face became very solemn.
"Since you're here, why hide?"
"Good temperament!"
As the voice fell, a mass of liquid slowly condensed into a burly figure in front of Li Mingxuan. At this moment, it was looking at the young man in front of it with its arms crossed.
"Who are you?"
"Yue Shan!"
"Yue Shan?" Li Mingxuan muttered with a furrowed brow. He thought for a moment and confirmed that he didn't know the other party.
"Tell me your purpose!"
Yue Shan opposite didn't speak, but directly took out an ancient book and threw it towards him. "Take a look at this."
Li Mingxuan knew that the other party's strength was definitely above his own. As far as he knew, even a Martial Warrior might not have such means.
Therefore, the person in front of him was likely a strong individual like Ye Jun. But what would such a strong person visit for in the middle of the night?
While thinking, he took the ancient book. As soon as he turned the first page, he froze in place. After reading a few more pages, he immediately widened his eyes in disbelief.
"What do you mean by this?"
This ancient book was precisely that B-grade top-tier Martial Skill, "Vajra Body Tempering Fist". Let alone a B-grade top-tier Martial Skill, he hadn't even heard of a C-grade Martial Skill.
Yet, the other party just casually threw over something like this. He thought it was fake, but after reading a few more pages, he found that the method of circulation was correct.
Although he didn't have time to look closely, he knew that this Martial Skill was likely real. If it were before, he would definitely be ecstatic, but now he knew that this thing was a hot potato.
"Consider it a meeting gift. How about it?" Yue Shan continued in a muffled voice.
"Senior, this gift is too heavy. I dare not accept it!"
"Kid, you don't need to resist too much. After all, helping you is also helping me!"
Li Mingxuan's brows were tightly furrowed, but he didn't speak. His life was in the other party's hands now, so it was better to say less.
And Yue Shan continued, "We met in the Ghost Market. Although you didn't notice me, I was quite satisfied with your actions."
Pausing, Yue Shan spoke again, "It's pretty much as you guessed. I'm not human, and you are the host I chose. This Martial Skill is the meeting gift!"
Listening to Yue Shan's words, Li Mingxuan fell into deep thought. "Not human? Parasitic?"
These two words had quite an impact on him. Regardless of Li Mingxuan's reaction, Yue Shan directly grabbed his body.
Next, under his shocked gaze, Yue Shan's body began to pour into Li Mingxuan's body. The black substance around him was directly absorbed by him.
In an instant, the surroundings returned to their original state, and Li Mingxuan sat up from the bed, gasping for air as if waking from a dream.
"Was it all a dream just now?"
Li Mingxuan looked at his hands, feeling somewhat lost for a moment. But when he glanced at the bedside table, there were the cultivation resources Li Wuji had prepared for him, and also an ancient book quietly lying there.
The five large characters "Vajra Body Tempering Fist" came into view. Li Wuji, on the other hand, fell into deep thought!
"Are you really parasitizing in my body?"
As the words fell, Li Mingxuan's body was instantly wrapped in a layer of black substance, and in less than a moment, it condensed into a set of magnificent armor.
"Kid, you don't need to have a psychological burden. It's just a mutually beneficial cooperation. I can give you Martial Skills and guide your cultivation, and you just need to collect various rare metals for me."
"Moreover, I can help you fight. With me here, you can even fight in the Martial Warrior Realm!"
Li Mingxuan couldn't help but nod as he felt the power coming from within his body, but he still couldn't completely trust the other party.
It's just that he couldn't resist now. It was better to use this opportunity to quickly improve his strength. After all, a Martial Warrior was also a significant expert in Mingde City.
"Then can you help someone with poor cultivation talent Cultivate?"
"After you become strong, I can help you. Even if I tell you now, you won't be able to do it!"
Hearing that it was possible, Li Mingxuan revealed a smile. He hadn't even smiled when he saw the B-grade top-tier Martial Skill.
"Then do you have any other Martial Skills?"
The armor on his body receded. Yue Shan couldn't help but let out a cold snort. "Interests are mutual. If you want me to take action or give you new Martial Skills and cultivation methods, then you need to prepare rare metals that satisfy me."
"Okay!"
Li Mingxuan didn't refuse. He then stopped talking and began to Cultivate the Martial Skill. "External power is external power after all. Only by being strong yourself can you control your own destiny and protect older brother!"
Yue Shan, hidden in the dark, nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. But he suddenly looked towards Li Wuji's room. After thinking for a moment, he also entered cultivation.
