What If I Can't Die?

Chapter 697 Add Points to Everything (2)

“This stupid dog. He only has some ability, but he dares to provoke a little demon like you.”

An unfamiliar voice appeared, especially obvious in the dark and quiet forest.

The Purple Ring Snake was so frightened that it instinctively shrank back. It spat out a poisonous gas at the source of the sound. At the same time, it transformed into a purple-bronze afterimage that charged at Song Shi, producing a violent sonic boom.

Song Shi did not do anything as the ferocious snake froze in midair. All the demonic aura was collapsing.

“Wild dogs are indeed more ferocious. It’s normal for stupid dogs to not be able to defeat you.”

Song Shi nodded. “Unfortunately, even wild ones will be beaten to death by me. I will definitely be biased towards it.”

The scales on the Purple Ring Snake’s body stood up in fear. It struggled with all its might, but it was useless.

Song Shi glanced at the snake’s abdomen. It did not look like it had done anything, but the latter’s stomach had been cut open. A black thing fell out with acid. It was a dog.

This fellow had been swallowed alive and was still breathing. Otherwise, Song Shi would not have attacked.

Song Shi glanced at the surrounding vegetation. In the next moment, the nearby vegetation shook. Wisps of green light flew out and landed on the large black dog.

Rich vitality quickly healed the large black dog. With cracking sounds, its broken bones healed.

The latter opened his eyes with difficulty and whimpered when he saw his master.

“You should be glad that it didn’t kill you. Otherwise, no matter how powerful I am, it would be difficult for me to resist the power of reincarnation and pull your soul back to revive.” Song Shi said indifferently.

There was the power of reincarnation in this world. It would pull away the souls of living beings to reincarnate. In theory, as long as he snatched back the souls and recovered his body, he could be revived.

However, the power of reincarnation was too powerful for him to resist.

“Woof, Master.”

The large black dog was like a child who had made a mistake. His eyes were filled with tears. He was indeed frightened and knew his mistake.

He gradually found the strength to speak. “I didn’t provoke it either. It wants to eat me.”

“Hmph, the strong prey on the weak outside. Do you think it’s still as peaceful as the village?”

Song Shi waved his hand and the power of the moonlight landed on the large black dog, restoring some of its demonic aura. He said, “I’ll help you this time. You can deal with it yourself next time.”

With that said, Song Shi walked towards the green rock that the big green snake was lying on when it was cultivating. He took a look and said, “So it’s a special spirit stone that can automatically absorb Spiritual Qi. This snake is quite lucky.”

He continued to observe, “It naturally contains a little Law Power and has become like a Dharma treasure. In that case, I can also cheat various things?”

Song Shi’s eyes lit up as he saw another train of thought.

In the past, he had used cheats on living creatures to strengthen his body and increase his cultivation. He had never used cheats on such things.

Since living things could be strengthened, these dead things should be able to too. This way, he might be able to easily obtain Dharma treasures without the tedious refinement.

Song Shi smiled and looked at the large black dog that was gradually getting up. “You didn’t suffer a loss for nothing today. I’ve opened up a new way of thinking for your master. There’s a reward.”

“Ah, is there a reward?”

The large black dog was a little stunned. He was afraid that his master would punish him.

“Misfortune and fortune depend on each other. Fortune and misfortune lie in each other’s hands.”

Song Shi said meaningfully. At the same time, he felt touched.

The Great Dao was extremely simple. The rules of heaven and earth were actually contained in some ordinary things. He still needed to look at and think more about it. He could not stay within three feet and attempt to see through the heavenly secrets.

“Looks like I have to walk around more.”

Song Shi picked up the limestone slab and studied it. The large black dog had recovered and angrily bit the dead Purple Ring Snake a few times before dragging it behind Song Shi.

When he returned to his house, the limestone slab in Song Shi’s hand lit up. The spiritual energy contained in it quickly became richer. Song Shi had already strengthened it according to its characteristics.

“It’s really possible. Moreover, the difficulty of strengthening inanimate objects is lower than that of living creatures.”

Song Shi could not help but laugh. This was indeed a good discovery.

To upgrade and strengthen living creatures, one had to consider the changes in essence, qi, and spirit. There was no need to consider so much about dead things.

However, the benefits of strengthening inanimate objects were not direct. He had to transform them. To him, they could only be used as supplements and could not become mainstream.

After being strengthened once, the limestone slab could still continue.

Song Shi affected the Laws again. The material of the limestone slab also changed, looking like it had an additional jade luster.

Its ability had increased greatly, and the Spiritual Qi in the surrounding hundreds of feet was automatically gathering.

After strengthening it again, the stone tablet almost became jade. At the same time, it had reached its limit and there were no more loopholes to use for the time being.

“Master, this shameless snake is quite big. Do you want to share it with everyone?”

The large black dog asked from behind.

“Eat first and give the rest to them.” Song Shi said.

The flesh and blood of demonized snakes contained abundant energy. Only Big Black could eat more and try the rest.

“Will do.”

Big Black said happily, “Master, don’t you want some?”

“You don’t have to.”

Song Shi was not interested in such trash now. He put down the limestone slab and raised his hand to the big black snake. He took off the tendons on its back and walked to the bamboo forest at the side.

He chopped a bamboo and took off the bamboo piece. He refined it simply and used the snake tendon as a string to make a longbow.

Holding the longbow, Song Shi muttered, “Enhance!”

A circle of green light appeared on the bow. The elasticity contained in it increased greatly, and the snake tendon became especially tough.

“Again!”

Song Shi continued to strengthen it. The entire longbow had an additional circle of luster. It could be said to be a Dharma treasure.

“I refined an ordinary Dharma treasure after two tries. It’s much more convenient than refining it for a few days.”

Song Shi sighed. If not for the limitations of the material, he could have strengthened this thing into a Numinous treasure or an Immortal artifact.

This also indirectly meant that the hexagram he had opened was not powerful enough. He could not ignore the foundation of the item and add points infinitely.

However, he was also satisfied. He could basically add points to everything. He could turn stone into gold and add points to ordinary items into treasures.

As for those things that were treasures to begin with, he could naturally continue to improve them from their original foundation.

Song Shi threw the longbow aside. The material of this thing was inferior to the stone. It could not be added twice.

His gaze landed on the bamboo and he waved his hand. “Strengthen them all!”

Amidst the rustling leaves, a green light appeared in the bamboo forest. The overall quality had increased and it was no longer ordinary bamboo.

He turned to look at the door and began to add points to the things in the courtyard. The door frame, walls, fences, floorboards, and other things had all been strengthened. The materials had been enhanced and the usage period had greatly increased. They could last for a hundred years without rotting.

After a long time, Song Shi stopped and looked at his brand-new residence. “Not bad. Not only did it become an immortal cave abode, but it’s no longer an ordinary residence.”

The next day, the village chief and a group of people walked up the stone stairs with various things. When they saw Song Shi’s courtyard, they revealed surprised expressions.

“What’s going on? I feel like there’s been a huge change.”

“Are you seeing things? Why is everything in the courtyard glowing?”

“It’s been a while since we last met. Why has Young Master Song’s room become brand new?”

Everyone clicked their tongues in wonder. In their eyes, the courtyard at this moment was completely different from before.

The bamboo forest beside the door was verdant and full of vitality. The tiles on the house were like glass with a crystalline color. The door, eaves, pillars, and other wooden items looked tight and sturdy. Even the stone slabs on the ground were filled with extraordinariness.

The overall feeling was that the entire courtyard had become new and more exquisite. It was quite extraordinary.

Logically speaking, the courtyard that had been built for five years should be old and dim. How could it be so new?

“Young Master Song should have renovated it,” Xu Hongniang guessed.

Someone immediately retorted, “Then why have these bamboos changed so much?”

“Uh, indeed.”

Xu Hongniang couldn’t explain it either.

“Woof woof.”

The large black dog ran out.

Last night, he had been rewarded by Song Shi with a physical strengthening. After his cultivation level increased and he ate most of the snake meat, he looked even more oily and handsome.

“Grandpa Village Chief, why are so many of you here?” The large black dog asked curiously.

“This… We haven’t seen Young Master Song in a long time. We came to get familiar with him.”

The village chief said shamelessly, “Coincidentally, We’re free recently, so everyone wants to gather.”

“Come in, all of you.”
