During the three months of drawing the talisman, Shi Mu did not slack off in other practices besides practicing the Red Ape Fire Sutra.
There is a hilltop near the house Shi Mu bought, which is usually deserted.
He would come here every morning to practice the sun-absorbing pose, and at night, as long as there was a moon, he would come here to practice the moon-swallowing pose.
Today, he no longer draws talismans during the day, but returns to the underground cave, activates the Yinghuo Formation, and continues to meditate and practice the ninth level of the Red Ape Fire Sutra.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Night, top of hill.
Shi Mu sat cross-legged, with his body in a moon-swallowing posture, and a looming shadow of the full moon appeared behind his head.
Rays of moonlight sprinkled down in mid-air, blending into the shadow of the full moon.
I don't know how much time passed, but Shi Mu's body moved slightly, and the shadow of the full moon behind his head disappeared. He opened his eyes, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
The moonlight crystal grains condensed in his mind are already quite large, almost the size of a baby's fist.
Shi Mu took a deep breath and closed his eyes again. A ray of mana penetrated into his mind and touched the moonlight crystal grains.
With a "pop" sound, the crystal grains shattered and turned into a full moon, and then a stream of pure magic power was injected into his body.
A nebula appeared above Shi Mu's head, with three star patterns shining brightly, while the fourth star was still dim.
As the mana continued to be injected, the nebula suddenly began to roll, and the light of the fourth star gradually brightened.
Buzz!
The nebula surged for a while, and after the fourth star reached a half-bright state, it finally stopped getting brighter.
Shi Mu opened his eyes, with a mixture of joy and sorrow on his face.
This time when the crystal grains turned into the moon, although his cultivation of Yun Shen Shu had increased a lot, it would still take at least one or two years before he could become a four-star warlock.
At this moment, a thick fog suddenly appeared behind Shi Mu.
The thick fog cleared, and Yan Luo, dressed in silver armor, suddenly crossed the border.
"Yanluo!" When Shi Mu saw Yanluo, there was a bit of joy in his eyes.
The armor on Yan Luo's body looked different from before, with circles of strange patterns appearing on it, and several sharp bone spurs growing out of the shoulder armor on both sides, with an electric light flashing from the top of the bone spurs.
Compared with the last time he appeared, Yanluo's strength seemed to have improved a lot, and the soul fire in his eyes was faintly approaching deep purple.
"Well, it finally looks like something now." Yanluo looked Shi Mu up and down, and a pleasant voice sounded in Shi Mu's mind.
When Shi Mu heard this, his expression froze. His cultivation speed seemed quite exaggerated to ordinary people, but to Yan Luo, it was nothing.
He took a breath and asked, "Are you here to borrow something again this time?"
"Lend me the stick." Yanluo's soul fire flashed and he nodded.
Shi Mu didn't say much, took off the meteor iron short stick from his back and handed it to Yan Luo.
Yan Luo waved his short stick, turned to look at Shi Mu, and asked, "Didn't you replenish your spiritual energy?"
"I'm trapped in this city now. I can only draw talismans to earn spiritual stones for my own cultivation. It's a bit difficult. I don't have any extra spiritual stones to replenish spiritual energy for the stick." Shi Mu rolled his eyes secretly and said.
"Stop being so nagging, give me five thousand spirit stones first!" Yan Luo didn't care at all and stretched out his hand in front of Shi Mu.
"It's fine if you want spirit stones, why not give them something in exchange." Shi Mu crossed his arms and said.
"What do you want?" Yanluo said.
"It's just the green flower like last time. It's not as good as this in the future. Let's make an agreement. How about one green flower in exchange for five thousand spiritual stones?" Shi Mu said without thinking.
Yanluo was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about it.
"Ten thousand spirit stones per flower." Yanluo started to bargain.
"It's a deal!" Shi Mu said immediately without any hesitation, with a cunning look in his eyes.
That kind of green flower is definitely worth more than 10,000 spiritual stones, and he will definitely not lose money on this purchase.
Yanluo nodded, black smoke appeared on his body, and he was about to return to another world.
At this moment, its movements suddenly stopped and it looked at Shi Mu, seemingly confused.
"What's wrong?" Shi Mu asked.
Yanluo walked over, walked around Shi Mu, and finally sniffed Shi Mu.
"What happened?" Shi Mu asked with a frown.
"You seem to have a special aura of death on your body? Have you encountered anything strange recently?" Yanluo asked.
Shi Mu was startled, and then an idea flashed in his mind.
"By the way, if you don't tell me, I almost forgot, it should be this thing." He waved his hand, and a white skeleton appeared in front of him, and it fell heavily to the ground with a "bang".
It was the corpse in the underground cave.
Yan Luo's eyes fell on the corpse on the ground, and the soul fire in his eyes became a little brighter. He raised his hand, and a gray light flew out, holding up the white skeleton and pulling it in front of him.
Yan Luo carefully looked at the skeleton in front of him, his soul fire getting brighter and brighter, and he seemed to be a little happy.
"I got this thing by chance recently. The bones are a bit special and may be useful to you. If you like it, it will be yours." Shi Mu said.
Yanluo didn't answer, but suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a wisp of purple flame, which flew into the corpse's head.
The hollow eyes of the corpse flashed quickly, and a cluster of soul fire appeared, but it turned out to be blue.
The soul fire was ignited, and the body of the corpse trembled.
After a while, his head looked around blankly, and then he moved his hands and feet stiffly, and his joints made a clicking sound.
Immediately afterwards, a unique aura of undead creatures emerged from the white skeleton, and continued to grow in size. After a while, it stabilized at the mid-to-late innate level and stopped changing.
Shi Mu looked at everything in front of him in astonishment.
With just a few clicks, a skeleton was turned into an undead creature, and its strength could reach the innate stage. It was really shocking.
"Maybe it has something to do with the skeleton itself?" Shi Mu thought.
The white-bone skeleton glanced around, and after a moment, his eyes fell on Yan Luo. The blue soul fire flashed in his eyes, and his eyes showed a kind of kindness.
The white-bone skeleton half-knelt on the ground, lowered his head towards Yanluo, and made a buzzing sound in his mouth:
"Owner!"
"Get up! From now on, you will stay with me. Well, I need to give you a name." Yanluo said, his eyes sparkling with soul fire, as if he was thinking.
Yanluo thought about it for a while, but couldn't seem to come up with any good names. He turned to look at Shi Mu who was aside.
"Since he belongs to you, it would be better for you to give him a name yourself." Shi Mu waved his hand.
"Master, I... have a name, my... name is... Wu Ye." The voice of the skeleton was unclear, but the meaning was still clearly expressed.
"Okay, please call me Wu Ye." Yan Luo nodded, black smoke surged from his body, and the void rippled, like water waves, and he stepped in.
The Bone Skeleton also walked in.
"In a few days, I will try to get the flowers, and you prepare the spirit stones!" Yan Luo's voice sounded in Shi Mu's mind before the fluctuations in the void dissipated.
Shi Mu showed a smile. With this kind of green flower, it would be just around the corner for his magic power to reach four stars.
As for the spiritual stones, he still has some around him.
Now that the terms have been agreed with Yanluo, he only needs to spend more time refining the talisman so that he can be with the other party.
He was originally worried that Yanluo would ignore him, but now that Yanluo was asking for help from him, it was easier to deal with.
Shi Mu thought this way, his body swayed, and he flew towards his residence.
…
Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the interface of the undead, there is a huge black mountain peak, and the black wind howls, making a sound like a ghost crying.
Halfway up the mountain, on a gentle slope, two undead legions were fighting.
One side is almost all skeletons, while the other side is mainly composed of carrion-like creatures. The number of both sides is almost the same.
The leader of the skeleton army is a tall white skeleton warrior, with dark blue soul fire flashing in his eyes, and holding a white sword about the same size as his body in his hand.
The white skeleton warrior is extremely powerful. Every time he swings his sword, he can set off a white sword shadow and chop one or two undead creatures trying to get close to him into two pieces.
The skeleton army, led by the white skeleton warrior, gradually gained the upper hand.
However, the white skull didn't seem to pay attention to the current battle, and looked into the air from time to time.
In mid-air, a slender figure possessed by white armor was holding a short stick and fighting with a huge black corpse dog.
This slender figure is none other than Yanluo. Half a year has passed, and its body has undergone some changes again.
A pair of wide bone wings grew out of its back, and inside the bone wings was a translucent membrane. The bone wings flashed, and its body flew through the air with great flexibility.
The black corpse dog has two thick, tapered horns on its head, like a sheep's horns. Its body is twenty or thirty feet in size. Deep purple flames flashed in its eyes. Under its body was a cloud of gray air, holding up its body.
The body is flying in mid-air.
The aura it exudes is extremely powerful, surpassing the smoke from the opposite side.
The dark purple flames in the eyes of the black corpse dog ignited, and its huge body jumped up and flew towards Yan Luo.
Yanluo's figure suddenly stopped, motionless, and had no intention of dodging.
The black corpse dog was overjoyed. A layer of rich black light appeared on one of its huge front paws, and it swooped down into the Yanluo Void.
There was a loud "chichi" sound, and a large black light condensed out of thin air into a huge black shadow of a giant palm, which was suddenly grabbed.
At this moment, the black light on the surface of the short black stick in Yanluo's hand suddenly emitted a sound like the roar of a beast. A large black light emerged, condensed into a thick black stick shadow, and hit the flying giant palm.
There was a loud "bang" sound!
The giant black palm collapsed like a rag, and the shadow of the black stick continued to hit the black corpse dog.
The black corpse dog had a frightened look on its face, and the two curved horns on its head flashed black light as it headed towards the black stick shadow.
Click!
The two horns on the top of the black corpse dog's head shattered into pieces, and the shadow of the stick struck the corpse dog's head.
The corpse dog's head also exploded immediately, like a rotten watermelon.
The huge body of the black corpse dog fell like a meteorite and smashed into the corpse army below. (To be continued.)
