Ch. 31 - Poison-killing soil

Lu Guijiu held back his face and stuck out his butt while grilling a fish he had just fished out of the lake.

The fish meat is very tender due to the quality of the water. Even without seasoning, it is sweet and delicious in the mouth. But no matter how delicious the food is, you will get tired of it if you eat too much.

After eating fish for a month, Lu Guijiu had reached the point where he felt nauseated when he saw fish. But if you feel nauseous, you still have to eat. Without the ability to indigest, Lu Guijiu could only fish in the water every day, pick it up, cut it up and eat it. When I'm in a good mood, I roast it with the spiritual fire. If I'm in a bad mood, I just remove the scales and stuff it into my mouth to chew it.

After eating the grilled fish with an expressionless face, Lu Guijiu began to practice again. Over the past few decades, he had been trying to break the restriction in his Dantian, but he found that there was no sign of the restriction loosening at all. He knew why his master was so cruel to him in the first place.

But Ju Lian started to pour cold water on Lu Guijiu again. He said: "Lu Guijiu , are you a fool? I'm afraid your master has left this cave long ago, but you still expect him to come back?"

Lu Guijiu didn't speak, just practiced with his eyes closed.

Ju Lian sneered and said: "Besides yourself, who else can you trust in this world? He is just your master, and he may become your enemy in the future." After he said this, he felt inexplicable He remembered the scene he had seen in Lu Guijiu 's mind, so he silently replaced the word enemy with lover in his heart.

Lu Guijiu was not swayed by Ju Lian's words. He had inexplicable confidence in Zhang Jingmo, as if he knew that his master would not leave him here for no reason.

However, after more than forty days, Zhang Jingmo still did not appear, and Lu Guijiu also felt a little anxious.

Lu Guijiu , who was practicing with his eyes closed, didn't know that Zhang Jingmo had appeared under the cliff a few days ago and began to observe him secretly.

Zhang Jingmo was very clear about the restrictions he had set. He knew that with Lu Guijiu 's ability, it would take less than thirty days to unlock the restrictions in the Dantian and fly up from the cliff. This was also the reason why he was eager to deal with the monster, but now more than forty days had passed. Zhang Jingmo quietly explored Lu Guijiu , but found that the restriction in Lu Guijiu 's dantian showed no sign of loosening...

This is strange.

This anomaly aroused Zhang Jingmo's curiosity. His first reaction was that Lu Guijiu  was not able to break through his restriction because he was mentally disturbed and slacked off in his cultivation.

However, after a few days of observation, Zhang Jingmo's guess was quickly proven wrong, because his lovely disciple Lu Guijiu  practiced hard every day and did not even sleep except for the time when he went to catch fish.

Since he was so serious, such a situation shouldn't happen. Zhang Jingmo became more and more confused, so he thought about continuing to observe Lu Guijiu for a few days.

Neither he nor Lu Guijiu could have imagined that the reason why Lu Guijiu couldn't break through Zhang Jingmo's restriction was because of Ju Lian...

This was actually the first time Ju Lian encountered a situation like Lu Guijiu 's. His previous hosts were all children of destiny. They either liked power, were greedy for beauty, or were eager for money... In short, the things they desired most in their hearts were very difficult to obtain.
