I'm Going to Capture That Guy
Song Shuhang: "..."
He propped himself up from the Golden Coffin and leaped lightly!
Clang~
His head slammed into the top of the Ancient Tomb, creating a small crater—but the crater was quickly repaired by the Ancient Tomb's array.
"My physique has increased dramatically, and I can't control my strength all at once." Song Shuhang rubbed his head.
But don't worry, he has experienced several surges in physique and strength since he started cultivating. As long as he has some time, he will be able to readjust quickly.
Song Shuhang landed safely.
Four Cultivations stretched out his claws and gently touched him. A Clothes-Cleansing Spell landed on Song Shuhang, evaporating the moisture from his body.
"Thank you, Senior Four Cultivations," Song Shuhang said gratefully.
"You're welcome. The aroma of scallions will be even stronger as the moisture evaporates from your body, making it especially fragrant." The White Jade Lion Four Cultivations licked his lips.
"Four Cultivations trying to eat me alive? "Song Shuhang felt a chill run down his spine.
"Fellow Song One, here's your phone and your Inch-Shrinking Bag. And here's your Onion Spirit." The Six Cultivations Girl returned Song Shuhang's belongings to him. To be honest, she had originally wanted to tell the Onion Lady's fortune as well, to see if she and 'Eight Cultivations' were destined for each other. However, the Onion Lady had completely melted away; her face, hands, and feet were gone, making fortune-telling impossible. She would have to wait until next time.
Song Shuhang asked, "Is Onion Lady alright?"
Six Cultivations handed over the flowerpot containing the Onion Lady: "It should be fine, because the scallion roots are still there, so the body can still grow... However, there might be a little accident."
Song Shuhang: "What accident?"
Six Cultivations: "If you sense it carefully, you'll notice... the demonic energy is gone from the roots of this Onion Spirit."
Song Shuhang used the mental energy he could barely muster to sense it, and sure enough, he could no longer detect any demonic energy from the roots of the Onion Lady in the Enlightenment Stone. The Onion Lady's demonic energy was very powerful; after all, she was a great demon who had lived for several hundred years.
Although she had no idea how to control her demonic energy, it was still quite intimidating. During their first encounter, she almost managed to fool Song Shuhang with her demonic energy.
Now, there isn't a trace of demonic energy left on her. It's not a superficial disappearance, but rather the complete eradication of demonic energy from Onion Lady.
"Then is she still considered a demon?" Song Shuhang asked, a demon without any demonic aura?
After thinking for a moment, Six Cultivations replied, "I guess so. To demons, demonic energy is just a form of energy. A car without fuel is still a car."
"That's true," Song Shuhang.
"Hmm... the real problem might be that this car might not even use gasoline in the future, and will instead use cooking oil," Six Cultivations added.
Song Shuhang: "..."
What does "switching to cooking oil" mean? Does it mean that Onion Lady will no longer use demonic energy? Will she switch to other energy sources?
The gears of life sometimes turn in unexpected directions. The future Onion Lady will no longer fight with gasoline, but with cooking oil—completely unexpected!
Okay, although Onion Lady has never been able to use demonic energy. When she first met and fought me, she used proper Buddhist Sect techniques.
If possible, let's choose a suitable cultivation method for Onion Lady to practice.
"If you're feeling better after the medicinal bath, come with me. Seven Cultivations and the others have been waiting for you outside for a long time." The White Jade Lion, Four Cultivations, leaped lightly and led the way.
"Okay," Song Shuhang nodded.
As he was leaving, he remembered something. "By the way, Senior Six Cultivations, could you sell me a few more sets of the medicinal bath ingredients?"
"No problem, it's just some lower-grade medicinal herbs, but we have plenty. I'll charge you 7 grade Third-Grade Spirit Stone for each," said Miss Six Cultivations.
Song Shuhang: "Please give me ten sets of medicinal bath ingredients."
He currently has nine Fourth-Grade Spirit Stones and three Third-Grade Spirit Stone left. However, one of the Fourth-Grade Spirit Stone has already been half-used.
Therefore, keep one Fourth-Grade Spirit Stone as a precaution. The remaining seven Fourth-Grade Spirit Stones are just enough to exchange for ten sets of medicinal bath materials.
As for the Spirit Stone owed to Venerable White... let him continue to owe them; he'll be able to pay them back someday!
If he could, Shuhang really hoped to exchange for more medicinal herbs. Because if he missed this shop, he would never be able to buy herbs at a reasonable price again.
***************************
After exchanging the medicinal herbs for ten different bath formulas, Song Shuhang followed the White Jade Lion and left the 'Tomb of the Four Cultivations Tomb of Six Cultivations', returning to the Immortal Ark.
Afterwards, the Immortal Ark carried the group back to the moon.
The 'Tomb of Venerable Six Cultivations' behind her disappeared into the void. This Ancient Tomb is mobile; unless the Six Cultivations Cultivators herself is willing, encountering Ancient Tomb is entirely a matter of luck.
"Has young friend Shuhang also signed the contract?" Venerable Seven Cultivations sat by the window of the Immortal Ark, gazing at the starry sky, and smiled.
"Yes, that's right." Song Shuhang nodded. "However, Senior Six Cultivations said my divination was rather strange. I probably don't have much of a connection with the 'Nine-Rebirth Phoenix Saber,' but I'll just use it to make up the numbers."
Venerable Seven Cultivations smiled slightly, "Hehe, fate has nothing to do with quantity; if you're destined to be together, you're destined to be together."
After flying in space for more than ten minutes, the Immortal Ark slowed down slightly.
The Venerable Seven Cultivations suddenly spoke up, "Young friend Shuhang, it's almost time for us to say goodbye. I'll come find you again after I've unraveled the secret of the gourd."
"Goodbye? Where is Senior Seven Cultivations going?" Song Shuhang asked curiously.
"Yes, of course I'm returning to my own cave. It's you and the others who are leaving, young friend Song Shuhang. Fellow Daoist Bai specially logged on that day and chatted with me for a while. He told me that after I explored the 'Tomb of Venerable Six Cultivations,' he would let you float in the universe." The Venerable Seven Cultivations held up a finger and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai said that the journey through the universe is a trial for young friend Shuhang."
Song Shuhang: "..."
"Then, young friend Shuhang, prepare to set off. I've already prepared everything for you, including your Shuhang capsule and spacesuit," Venerable Seven Cultivations said with a smile.
Song Shuhang: "..."
"Shuhang, good luck!" Yu Jiaojiao patted Song Shuhang with a smile. "Also, I won't be accompanying you this time. I need to go back to Earth first."
"Hey hey hey? Jiaojiao, are you going to abandon us?" Song Shuhang exclaimed.
Yu Jiaojiao said, "Hehehe, I already have the Moonlight Stone, so I don't need to stay on the moon to cultivate. Also, do you remember that guy I told you about last time, the one who writes funny novels?"
"Oh, Jiaojiao, I almost forgot about it if you hadn't mentioned it." Song Shuhang suddenly realized.
He had also promised Senior White that he would make a movie.
Shuhang wants to make a short film, something light and simple, just for his own amusement. During the Lunar New Year, when relatives and friends gather, he'll have Dad Song show it so everyone can have a good laugh.
"I confirmed yesterday that he was online at his home location. So, I'm going back to Earth to catch him and lock him up in a dark room," Jiaojiao Jiao laughed.
