Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration - Chapter 294

The conditions Jiang Li gave made the remaining 33 rogue cultivators’ expressions turn ugly.

He wanted a Profound-rank artifact as soon as he spoke. If they handed over the only two artifacts they had, their combat strength would at least decrease by more than half.

If they were unwilling to give or could not, then they would have to hand their storage bags to Jiang Li.

In this illusion, the storage bag could not be opened. Inside was their savings of many years. No one wanted it to be emptied like this.

The third choice was clearly not a good choice. That black pill was definitely a poison used to threaten them. If they ate it, heaven knew what they would be threatened to do.

In fact, the so-called poisonous pill was only a spiritual root seed wrapped in a layer of pill shell. It was harmless and safe.

“Hmph, don’t be too ruthless when taking advantage of others! I won’t agree!”

“Brothers, don’t believe him. Perhaps that fool fell to the ground in one bowl because he was useless. He can drink three bowls in a row. This wine should not be so poisonous!”

The cultivator who had wanted to freeload on Jiang Li was a typical example of someone who valued money more than his life, and was even more shameless on top of that.

He picked up the wine bowl, gritted his teeth, and drank the Soul Dissolution Liquor.

However, the result proved that he was even worse than the previous “fool”.

The person who had been drinking with Jiang Li earlier at least swayed a little. However, as soon as he drank it, his entire body directly lashed out.

The wine in his seven orifices flowed out with his soul. He was already beyond saving.

“Everyone, you should think about it quickly. I’m only waiting here for fifteen minutes. There are only twenty spots. I won’t wait for you.”

Another cultivator fell, causing their mood to become abnormally heavy.

Coupled with Jiang Li’s words, it caused their hearts to feel even more anxious.

The situation was already very clear. Drinking the Soul Dissolution Liquor meant death. If they did not drink it, the warden would not let them off. Only Jiang Li could save their lives.

Although the price was high, it was still the only way to save their lives. If they were to slowly consider it, it would probably be difficult for them to make up their minds for the entire day.

However, now that the quota was limited and there was competition, the situation was different.

“Brother, this is my storage bag. Please keep it well. I’ll have to trouble you with this bowl of wine.”

A cultivator immediately handed over his storage bag. Presumably, his storage bag had fewer belongings.

If he gave the main combat artifact in his hand, the journey ahead would be even more dangerous. Therefore, he quickly made a decision.

When the other cultivators saw that one spot was gone, they also became anxious.

“Friend, friend, there’s mine too!”

“This Profound-Rank saber has accompanied me for more than 50 years. You must treat it well in the future.”

“Big Brother, can I ask what your medicinal pill is called?”

More and more cultivators fought to hand their gifts to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li counted the twenty people first, and then he really did not care about the cultivators after that.

He really did not fancy the artifacts and storage bags of a mere group of rogue cultivators.

Soon, he paid no further attention to them, and he turned to look at the remaining nine bowls of Soul Dissolution Liquor on the table.

He picked up the bowls and gulped the liquor down.

A moment later, the sword cultivator clone’s aura fluctuated, and he really used this to advance to the True Core realm.

This kind of spiritual wine was really surprisingly wonderful. Even the private collection of a warden could have such an effect. Perhaps there really was a legendary immortal pill in this underground palace.

The sword cultivator clone did not stop at all. He drank the remaining eight bowls of Soul Dissolution Liquor like a dragon sucking a river dry.

The evil spirit could not do anything in front of the Ghost Lantern Cold Flame, but the dense alcohol smell made the sword cultivator clone who practiced the Liquor Fire Sword Song blush.

After drinking the remaining wine, his cultivation was already approaching the Golden Core realm. At this rate, his clone might be able to break through two realms in a day.

“Lord Prison Warden, this wine is the best I’ve ever seen in my life. Please fill the other eleven bowls. I can still hold on.”

Jiang Li’s face flushed red, but opposite him, the Prison Warden’s expression became even uglier.

When he saw Jiang Li drink another nine bowls of Soul Dissolution Liquor, his heart bled.

However, in fact, although he was indeed the warden of Fengdu’s dungeon and could use this ancient building to do many things,

there were indeed rules that one could drink the Soul Dissolution Liquor on behalf of others. Since Jiang Li had already drunk it, he was already free. He had no reason to attack Jiang Li.

If he did something that went against his duty, it was very likely that the sin would make him unable to drink the Soul Dissolution Liquor anymore.

If he could no longer drink this Soul Dissolution Liquor, he might as well die.

“No, no, no. If you continue drinking like this, I won’t have any more wine to drink!”

“There are 11 left, right? Your sentence is up. Go out directly. I don’t need you to drink anymore.”

The warden hugged the wine jar and retreated. Even if he let the remaining people leave directly, he was unwilling to pour more wine for Jiang Li.

However, after probing him a few times, Jiang Li already understood that the other party could not be restricted by extremely strict rules in this prison. This gave him some room to bargain.

“Lord Warden, please don’t break the rules because of me. I can still endure it.” Jiang Li said shamelessly.

The surrounding people were all a little speechless. He had just broken through a realm while drinking. Wasn’t it obvious what he was after?

“No, leave quickly.”

“No, I want to drink.”

Jiang Li actually started to argue with the warden here. For a time, no one could convince anyone.

In the end, Jiang Li made a compromise.

“How about this, Lord Prison Warden? I really like this wine too much. I have a small wine gourd here. As long as you fill two bowls of Soul Dissolution Liquor inside, I’ll just smell it from time to time after I leave the dungeon.”

Jiang Li finally proposed such a condition.

Regarding this, the warden could only grit his teeth and agree.

Jiang Li naturally wanted this gourd of Soul Dissolution Liquor for his main body.

This Soul Dissolution Liquor was only a one-time consumable item with his clone, but its effects on the main body could last indefinitely.

The Liquor Fire Sword Song was fine, but the fact that this wine could increase the Bodhisattva Heart Sutra tempted him greatly.

After receiving the wine pot and hanging it on his waist, Jiang Li and the 22 people, including the old ghost, walked out of the Fengdu dungeon openly.

On the spot, there were only ten or so cultivators with despair on their faces.

They wailed and wanted Jiang Li to bring them along.

However, this angered the warden. With a wave of his hand, a few black shadows appeared and pressed the remaining cultivators to the ground.

“Wait, Fellow Daoist! Big Brother! I’ll give you my artifacts and storage bag. Drink another bowl!”

“Yes, yes. Fellow Daoist, if you save me this time, I’ll definitely do my best to repay you!”

Facing death, they anxiously shouted out everything they had, but Jiang Li did not waver at all. He, Old Ghost, and the other 20 people walked out of the bronze door.

Among these 20 people, three of them gave out Profound-rank artifacts, and ten handed over their storage bags. The other seven people had the intention of relying on luck to consume Jiang Li’s spiritual root seed.

In the beginning, they were very conflicted, but the desperate screams of those cultivators who did not manage to snatch a spot made them feel fortunate.

If they were a step slower, they might be the ones pressed to the ground.

People had to compare in order to feel the difference.

After passing this round, it was time to obtain the treasures.

Upon stepping out of the bronze door of the dungeon, an ancient palace building instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

At this moment, intense vibrations came from above. Clearly, after successfully luring the tiger out of the mountain, those large forces also began to violently attack the Fengdu underground palace.

…

In the Ghost King Desolate Ground, Jiang Li’s main body finally arrived here after speeding all the way.

In terms of the underground palace, it was still considered calm.

Fengdu City was in chaos.

In the Paramita Plains of the Netherworld Illusion, they had already fought until their brains were mush.

Countless powerful ghosts tore and killed crazily under the temptation of the aura of the Nine Yang Child and the Nine Yin Child.

It could really be said that the world collapsed and the sun and moon dimmed.

As the main characters in the scene, there was a young man and woman tied to a stone pillar.

Their faces were young and handsome. There were not many traces of cultivation methods on their bodies, but it was obvious that their bodies contained the cultivation of the peak of Qi Refinement.

This was because their physiques were special and their talent was too good. Even if they did not cultivate any cultivation methods, the spiritual qi would automatically enter their bodies.

However, such a genius was not snatched away by others to take in a disciple. Instead, he was captured here as bait. There was probably no hope of leaving here today.

When Jiang Li entered through the entrance of the illusion realm, he was fiercely shocked. The scene of a huge crack being torn open in the sky was truly terrifying.

Then, he was blown dozens of kilometers away by the ghost qi.

Fortunately, there was an inner armor transformed from the Nine Nether clone attached to his body. Otherwise, this shock wave would have injured him quite badly.

Remember that Ink Sect Nascent Soul cultivator who ambushed Jiang Li in Thousand Sieve City and was ultimately defeated by him in the coffin?

No matter what, he was a Nascent Soul cultivator. How could Jiang Li forget him?

In the coffin space, after tidying up, he planted the Nine Nether Branch’s spiritual root seed in his body.

After taking root and growing for a period of time, the Nine Nether clone finally obtained all his cultivation base, reaching the Nascent Soul realm!

After he wore the Nine Nether clone, Jiang Li’s peak combat strength had finally broken through. This was also the reason why he dared to come here alone.

Borrowing the momentum of the aftershock, Jiang Li took the initiative to leave the battlefield.

It was a chaotic battle between more than ten Ghost Kings. Even if he had ten more layers of the Nine Nether clone, he would be unable to interfere in their battle.

It was already very lucky to be able to escape from the aftershock.

He only took a glance at the young man and girl tied to the stone pillar from afar before ignoring them.

There were too many powerful figures involved, so Jiang Li could not afford to interfere.

He stuck to the ground and left the center of the battlefield. Jiang Li circulated the Nine Nether spiritual qi around his body and covered most of the aura before speeding towards Fengdu Ghost City.

While flying, he tried the Yin Burial Coffin in his hand, and the result made him overjoyed.

This Earth-rank artifact lived up to its name. It could actually be opened normally in this concrete illusion. This was much more convenient.

Even those large factions could only use carriages to send supplies here.

However, if he could find any treasures, he could directly stuff them all into the coffin and take them away. If he was lucky, he might be able to pick up a huge opportunity this time.

On the way to Fengdu, Jiang Li unexpectedly met another familiar face.

“Alliance Leader Jiang? Why are you here? Are you alone?”

It was none other than the rogue cultivator, Zhao Tiangang, who Jiang Li had met twice.

The first time they met was at the Myriad Sun Building’s aerial auction. The second time was at the gathering place of the mortals affiliated with Ink Sect.

He was not from Ink Sect. At that time, he had only rushed to help in order to repay Ink Sect’s kindness. After the matter was resolved, he naturally left on his own.

Now, they had encountered it again in this dangerous Netherworld Illusion. Firstly, it was indeed a coincidence. Secondly, it was probably the characteristics of rogue cultivators. They would always come over to see if there was a chance to take advantage of such a huge event.

“Brother Zhao, we meet again. I was just joining in the fun.”

“However, Fengdu City should still be ahead. Are you leaving?”

Jiang Li also greeted him. However, when he saw that the other party and his companions were flying in the opposite direction, he could not help but feel a little strange.

“Hehe, that’s right. I can’t open the storage artifact in this damned place. I was lucky and obtained a little something. It’s time to leave.”

Zhao Tiangang patted the bulging bags on his body. Clearly, he had gained a lot.

To most rogue cultivators, their greatest goal was to seize the opportunity of the chaos in Fengdu City to leave.

The goods there were all of considerable value. If one was lucky, they could really snatch some quite good medicinal pills and artifacts.

The chaos in Fengdu City should have just begun. It was quite rational for them to stop and retreat in time.

“I see. However, the entrance to the illusion is very dangerous now. It’s best not to go out from there. Perhaps you can find a safe place to wait for a while. It might be safer to return to the Ghost King Desolate Ground after the illusion collapsed on its own.”

Jiang Li shared the terrifying scene he saw when he arrived.

If ordinary cultivators approached that place, the only fortunate thing was that they would die extremely quickly there.

Zhao Tiangang was stunned when he heard this and thanked Jiang Li repeatedly. With their cultivation levels, if they entered the battlefield of those Ghost Kings, they might not even know how they died.

When Jiang Li wanted to separate from them and continue forward, Zhao Tiangang returned the favor and told Jiang Li a piece of news.

“Alliance Leader Jiang, wait. Fengdu City is actually very dangerous now.”

“There are various large factions controlling it. The fights between the rogue cultivators are also very intense. Battles are happening everywhere.”

“If Alliance Leader Jiang trusts me, there’s actually a hidden tomb outside Fengdu City. Not many people know about it, so it’s relatively safer.”

“To be honest, our gains were also obtained from that tomb.”

In any case, Zhao Tiangang and the others had already obtained enough and were prepared to leave, so they did not mind telling Jiang Li the news. They rummaged through the bag in their chests and pulled out a fluffy white tail.
