Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration - Chapter 555

If not for the fact that Jiang Li cultivated the Bodhisattva Heart Sutra, he might not have understood what she said.

“This is absolutely true. I don’t dare to lie at all.”

Granny Nether Mountain stared at the vine figure in front of her as if she wanted to see through it.

However, the slowly wriggling vine did not have eyes. The wisp of flames covered Jiang Li inside very well.

Granny Nether Mountain looked for a long time but could not tell if Jiang Li was lying.

Then, she began to use her sharp and black nails to scratch the wooden board. She scraped off a pinch of powder from it and rubbed it carefully in her hand.

Inside, there was indeed an aura that she had never seen before. At the very least, it proved that this wooden board did not come from this Netherworld fragment. This made her believe it even more.

At this moment, Granny Nether Mountain formed a strange seal in her hand and stabbed it into the ground.

…..

Immediately, the ground shook again. Something was crawling out from the depths of the mountain range.

In the end, what broke out of the ground was not a huge thing, but two roots!

The patterns on the surface of the roots looked like fossils, and they revealed the smell of age. However, it was precisely the layer of fossil-like skin that sealed off the aura inside, causing Jiang Li to be unable to clearly sense it.

The roots reached out of the ground, and one of them wrapped around a child in the steamer.

On the other side, Granny Nether Mountain casually grabbed a ghost from below and wrapped it around another root.

As the two roots wrapped around each other, a strange thing was pulled out of the Four Hands child’s body and poured into the ghost along the roots.

Although that thing could not be seen or touched, Jiang Li knew what was happening in front of him.

The thing that was extracted from the child and poured into the ghost’s body was lifespan, or rather, Yang lifespan.

A long time ago, in Qin Shuman’s ghost market, there were many peddlers who often tricked travelers who passed by and used their Yang lifespan to trade with them.

Of course, the methods of ordinary ghosts could only strip away the Yang lifespan of ordinary mortals. Moreover, the methods were very crude. Sometimes, after only taking away a few years or even a few months of lifespan, mortals would die of illness after returning home.

Later on, Jiang Li obtained the broken bowl of the beggar Ghost King in Fengdu City.

That thing could extract the lifespan of cultivators below the Earth Immortal realm and turn them into copper coins. Jiang Li even used this to open a rather lively casino.

Therefore, Jiang Li did not find it strange when he saw this method of extracting lifespan.

However, the efficiency of converting lifespan seemed to be shockingly high. It was far greater than the broken bowl in Jiang Li’s Fengdu City, and it was even more powerful than his two Nine Nether Wood clones.

Although it did not emit any aura or spiritual qi, Jiang Li was 90% sure that this was the root of the Nine Nether Wood.

Therefore, Granny Nether Mountain had used some unknown method to awaken and control this root. Through this, she had grasped the Nine Nether spiritual qi and her current strength.

As his lifespan was continuously extracted, some wrinkles gradually appeared on the child’s face, and his skin and muscles became relaxed and weak.

There was no change in the ghost.

Yang lifespan was considered precious.

However, if it was used on ghosts, without special methods, it was actually very difficult to unleash its true effect.

In ancient times, unspent lifespan would still hinder reincarnation.

However, Granny Nether Mountain did not care about this. She grabbed the ghost that had been injected with decades of lifespan and stuffed the powder of the death token in her hand into its body.

Then, she grabbed the ghost with both hands and rubbed it repeatedly.

She crushed this unlucky guy into ashes on the spot and threw him into the air.

Ghost powder scattered everywhere. As the soul fragments scattered, they emitted specks of fluorescent light.

In it, an illusory city appeared.

“It’s true! It’s really Tragic Death City!!”

The excitement on Granny Nether Mountain’s face was obvious. She reached out to grab the illusion.

However, it was only an illusion after all. When she grabbed it, it stirred into chaos and disappeared.

After verifying the authenticity of the death token, Granny Nether Mountain looked at the wooden board in her hand as if it was a treasure.

Some things did not have to be made of precious materials.

This was especially true for official documents. Even if it was just a few black words on a piece of white paper, it might surpass priceless treasures.

“Good! Good! Good!”

“Purple Vine Rock, you did well!”

Granny Nether Mountain, who had recovered from her shock, looked at the Purple Vine Demon that was controlled by Jiang Li, her eyes filled with admiration.

She took out a small basin from somewhere and placed it beside the two roots.

A few breaths later, two turbid yellow streams flowed out from the two roots.

After filling a basin, she handed it to Jiang Li.

It was an entire basin of Yellow Spring Water.

When Jiang Li had just attacked the Barbarian Stone Demon King, he had secretly put away the cup of Yellow Spring Water that the other party had yet to drink.

He had been smug just now, but now, he felt that his poverty was being looked down on.

Moreover, the other party was using what Jiang Li had been looking for to look down on him.

The shrouded nine heavens in the sky showed no moon, and the Nine Nether beneath had the Yellow Spring Water.

Extracting the Yellow Spring Water from the Nine Nether was simply the ability of the Nine Nether Broken Root.

Jiang Li was determined to obtain everything related to the Nine Nether Wood.

Now, the root of the ancient Connate spiritual root was controlled by others, which really made him a little unhappy.

However, on the surface, Jiang Li naturally could not show it. He had to thank Granny Nether Mountain.

Jiang Li was carefully putting away the Yellow Spring Water.

Granny Nether Mountain spoke to the evil spirits below.

“This full moon banquet is canceled. Purple Vine Shi Pan, you can take away ten of them.”

This person did not care about the mood of the demons and ghosts on the Back Yin Mountain.

Because she still needed the lifespan of these children, she directly canceled this banquet.

Although she had already received the gift, so what?

However, Jiang Li, who had offered the death token, still had a special treatment. He was allowed to take away ten.

“Thank you, Granny.”

After Jiang Li thanked her reluctantly, he thought for a moment and continued.

“Granny left these children behind for their lifespan, right?”

“These children can’t live on Yin Mountain for long. It’s even more inconvenient to bring them across the mountain.”

“I have a method to convert lifespan into copper coins. Granny, please take a look.”

Jiang Li walked to the side of the iron cage and stretched out his vines to grab ten children.

The vines on his body wriggled and swallowed the ten children from every corner of their bodies.

In fact, he only sent these children into the coffin space.

Another wave of vines rubbed against each other. A moment later, dozens of lifespan copper coins appeared in Jiang Li’s hand.

The quality of this lifespan copper coin was naturally far inferior to the quality of lifespan absorbed by the Nine Nether Wood.

However, to Granny Nether Mountain, the quality of the lifespan was not important at all.

As long as she could regain Yang lifespan and return to Tragic Death City, it was enough.

It was naturally best if Jiang Li could turn the lifespan into copper coins for convenient storage.

She immediately waved her hand and threw the remaining children to Jiang Li.

The Purple Vine Demon transformed into a vine giant again. Under the envious gazes of the other demons, it put away all 500 children.

More than 2,000 lifespan copper coins fell from his hand.

These lifespan copper coins were all obtained from Fengdu City’s casino some time ago.

It was fine if one used this kind of low-quality lifespan for the first time, but the more he used it, the worse the effect would be. If he used it for a long time, it might even cause a hole in his life and cause his lifespan to flow away for no reason.

Jiang Li looked down on such things, but he still brought quite a few with him.

This was a good time to put on an act.

He heaved a sigh of relief. His goal of saving these children had finally been achieved.

He would find an opportunity to secretly send them away.

Next, he would cross the Back Yin Mountain and become a dead person!

With this Granny Nether Mountain leading the way, he might be able to make a trip to Tragic Death City.
