Zhang Ling wants to live in Falling Star City for a long time, and having a stable place to stay will save a lot of trouble. After all, his body is parasitized by a strange vine, and he has a magical round bead in his hand. From the perspective of the immortal cultivation knowledge he has come into contact with, these two things are not ordinary. If the changes in his body are discovered by other cultivators, they might catch him for research. The world of immortal cultivation is a jungle where the weak are prey to the strong, and there are many bizarre secret techniques, as well as extreme cultivators such as the Demonic Path and the Evil Cultivators. If the mutation of the body can be hidden in other ways, then the magical round bead is a strange treasure that can subvert the cognition of immortal cultivators. There are treasures in the world of immortal cultivation that can promote the growth of spiritual plants, but they can only shorten the growth period of spiritual plants. The magical bead can make plants grow for a hundred years overnight. This kind of treasure cannot be achieved even by the magic weapons and spiritual treasures of high-level cultivators. If such a mysterious treasure is leaked, the consequences can be imagined. He is just a small Qi Refining stage cultivator, and a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator can easily kill him. Seeing the power of the Foundation Establishment stage cultivator today has also made Zhang Ling more vigilant. After more than half an hour, Zhang Ling arrived at the location of the cave dwelling. What he saw was a desolate hillside, sparsely populated and with many such hillsides.
The quality of the spiritual veins here is not good, so there are not many cultivators living here. Guided by the cave dwelling token, he circled around a low hillside. The area within five or six miles is the range of his cave dwelling. The location of the cave dwelling is on the side of the hillside, next to a few spiritual medicine fields covered with weeds. It seems that the previous cultivator who lived here opened them up. As soon as he walked into the cave entrance for more than ten zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length), a force in the air pushed him back. This is the restriction formation attached to the cave dwelling. Zhang Ling grabbed the cave dwelling token and shook it in front of him, and a white light shot forward. The surrounding invisible force dissipated dimly. He walked to the entrance of the cave and looked at it. The cave door was a whole piece of bluestone, covered with moss, and had not been inhabited for a long time. Pushing the door open, the space inside was very large, with several stone rooms built, and stone tables, stone chairs and other items were readily available, although they were covered with dust. It took Zhang Ling most of the day to clean up the cave dwelling. Although no one has lived here for a long time, the formation here is operating normally. This formation is not a powerful formation, and its defense is not strong, but it has a divine sense restriction that can resist the exploration of cultivators. The operation of the cave dwelling formation is enough to be driven by the spiritual energy emitted by the spiritual veins, without additional spending of spirit stones. In addition, the cave dwelling is also equipped with a spirit gathering array, so the concentration of spiritual energy in the cave dwelling is three times that of the outside. Here, he can speed up his cultivation progress. In the next few days, Zhang Ling was taking care of the medicine field, planting all the collected spiritual medicine seeds. The next day, he went to the market again and collected the spiritual medicines needed for the two kinds of pills. He planned to use the mysterious bead to promote the growth of these spiritual medicines and refine pills in batches. After that, Zhang Ling settled down in Falling Star City, and his footprints were only the cave dwelling and the ground fire room, and he entered into cultivation in a two-point and one-line manner. …… Cultivation knows no years, and two years have passed. The gate of Zhang Ling's cave dwelling suddenly opened on this day. Several soft sounds of 'whoosh, whoosh, whoosh' came, and black shadows rushed out. On closer inspection, these black shadows were black-brown thorny vines. These thorny vines were like crazy, walking all the way, and the place they passed was a mess. After a few breaths, the thorny vines wrapped around a thick tree. With a loud bang, the tree broke in response, raising a cloud of dust.
"The power is not bad." Zhang Ling appeared next to the tree, looking at the thorny vines under his feet and muttering to himself. After testing the power of the thorny vines, he beckoned, and the thorny vines suddenly let go of the trees and surrounded him. I saw these thorny vines emitting a cyan light, and a strip of emerald green thin lines, flying out from these thorny vines, condensed into a green thorn shadow in the air. Zhang Ling stretched out his left hand, and the vine parasitized on his arm stretched out, and wrapped the thorn shadow in one fell swoop. Just like two green snakes entwined in the air, and then the thorn shadow merged into the vine. The main body of the vine has also changed. There are some brown vines on the original green vines, and some barbs appear on it. This is the characteristic of thorns. After doing this, the surrounding thorny vines seemed to have lost their lives, and withered and weathered into flying ash in a few breaths. Zhang Ling looked at the mutated vine on his arm again, and couldn't help but marvel. This vine gave him too much shock. After he broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining, the vine on his arm changed again. It seems to have a splitting function. He can split any section of the arm vine and parasitize it on other plants to absorb their nutrients. After discovering this feature, he began to try to study it. The first thing he used to parasitize was the iron blackberry. This is a very tough thorny vine. Cultivators who practice wood attribute exercises and master the entanglement technique often collect the seeds of iron blackberry to cast the entanglement technique. Once entangled by the iron blackberry, it will be a lot of trouble for the Qi Refining cultivators. But in the repeated parasitism, he found that some characteristics of the iron blackberry also appeared on the vines on his arm. Zhang Ling controlled the changes of the vines, and the characteristics of the thorny vines on it gradually faded, restoring the original appearance, but under the inspection of his divine sense, several strands of vines in the vines have become iron black. With a wave of his left hand, the original green vine suddenly split out several dark vines. These separated vines, under the urging of spiritual power in the body, entangled together, brushed and stretched out, turning into an iron-black more than ten zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) long section, revealing sharp thorns of vines, which is the original appearance of the iron blackberry. He doesn't need to use the seeds of iron blackberry, he can use the vines to cast entanglement. It seems that the vine parasitized on his arm has absorbed all the characteristics of the iron blackberry. It's just that the transformed vines also have shortcomings. The vines that have become iron blackberry can no longer be transformed into the original vines. Once separated from the main root of the vines, it will wither in a short time. Therefore, although the parasitic vines can be transformed into iron blackberry, Zhang Ling did not let the entire vine completely transform, and only let a few vines become iron blackberry each time. Even so, the main body of the vine also absorbed some of the characteristics of the iron blackberry and became more tenacious. This is a terrible phenomenon. The vine has such a strong fusion power. As long as you find some special plants and let the vine absorb it, then this vine can be infinitely enhanced. It's just that Zhang Ling always has a concern. He feels that the vine parasitized on his body has not been completely mastered. Every time the vine is enhanced, he has to spend a long time adapting to control. This situation can only be studied later. In short, the vine becomes stronger, which also enhances his strength.
