I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 544: 542: Bottom Card_1
Chapter 544 -542: Bottom Card_1
Before Lu Xuan could finish speaking, more than ten deep yellow tentacles shot out from the soil like lightning, attacking the four of them.
Reminded by Lu Xuan, the three of them were not as panicked as they were at the beginning. They each used their skills to resist the deep yellow tentacles that were crazily attacking them.
A spiritual light flashed from Qiu Changyuan’s storage bag at his waist, and a shield covered in densely packed dark green scales emerged in front of him. Spiritual power flowed into the shield, making it continue to expand, firmly blocking the deep yellow tentacles.
A silver-white talisman silently appeared in Meng Yue’s hand, and a thick ice wall rose up before her.
Seeing the strong momentum of the tentacles, Sun Yunming’s crystal jade pendant quietly shattered around his neck, and a spiritual energy shield covered his surroundings.
As for Lu Xuan, although he had absolute confidence in his powerful flesh body, he did not want to expose it in front of the three. The bluish light of his Qing Helved Shoes flashed, skillfully dodging the attack of the tentacles in a trajectory contravening normal logic.
With a wave of his single hand, countless tiny sword qi formed into a terrifying hurricane. Flashing like lightning and rumbling like thunder, it shredded the tentacles into pieces.
Seven fierce giant insects appeared in front of them. Their bloated bodies squeezed together, countless milky white small limbs on their bodies danced non-stop, as a dark yellow soil blade stabbed towards Lu Xuan and others.
Qiu Changyuan released a Mantis Demon Beast with the aura of three grades. The mantis had a pair of limbs like large knives, and the saw teeth on them looked extremely sharp.
With a strong bounce, it disappeared in a flash. The large knife-like limbs harshly scraped across the surface of the giant insect’s body.
Two tender white arm segments were cut off, leaving only two shallow wounds on the giant insect’s bloated body. A mixed blood of red and yellow leaked out but healed immediately.
“Be careful, the skin of this demon insect is unmatched.”
Qiu Changyuan warned the other two. The limbs of his Mantis Demon Beast were extremely sharp, superior to many third-grade flying swords. A full-force strike only caused slight damage to the giant insect, demonstrating the difficulty of dealing with it.
“Five are at the fourth grade, two at third. It’s going to be a bit tricky.”
Lu Xuan’s spiritual sense swept over them, immediately discerning the aura of the seven demon insects.
Of the four, Sun Yunming had the lowest cultivation level and was already at a disadvantage under the crazed attacks of the giant insects. A look of seriousness appeared on his face as he realized the gravity of the situation. A Black Broken Blade appeared in front of him, and he sprayed his essence blood on the broken blade.
The Broken Blade turned into a black light and entered the body of a giant insect.
The giant insect writhed crazily in pain. By the time the Broken Blade flew out of its body and attempted to stab in again, a large amount of dark yellow pus sprayed from its mouth.
The pus splashed on the Black Broken Blade, immediately leaving traces of damage. Amidst the sizzling sounds, strands of yellow foul-smelling smoke drifted out from the blade.
“My magic artifact!”
Seeing this, the lean elderly guy hurriedly recalled his Black Broken Blade. Looking at the uneven marks left on it, he felt great sorrow.
This Black Broken Blade was a treasure he had obtained with great difficulty. It required essence blood to activate and was extremely powerful. He had intended to use it as a trump card to kill the enemy in one blow, but never thought it would be corroded and destroyed.
“This demon insect actually has this move, which can corrode magic artifacts.”
A thought flashed through Lu Xuan’s mind.
“Fellow daoists, it’s better to kill the demon with formula methods or talismans.”
“Use any trump cards as soon as possible, we need to end this quickly.”
He conveyed these thoughts to Qiu Changyuan and the others.
The three nodded slightly. A hint of hesitation flashed in Meng Yue’s eyes, but quickly, a red talisman appeared in front of her, within which was a lifelike flood dragon shadow.
With the resounding roar of a dragon, a huge fire dragon, carrying raging flames, rushed toward the fierce giant insects.
In front of Qiu Changyuan, a four-armed, six-eyed Monster Ape appeared. Its body swelled several times, and its blue-black fists were ferocious, slamming powerfully into the giant insects.
Lu Xuan, with a serious expression, held three sword-point talismans in his hands. When his spiritual power was activated, sword qi erupted from within them. Like a ferocious wind and great waves, it swept towards the remaining insects.
With the simultaneous use of the three fourth-grade Roaring Sea Sword Charms, an Ocean of Sword Qi formed where the demon insects were, and even with their huge bodies, they were like wooden boats on a stormy sea, ready to overturn at any moment under the might of that sword qi.
They only held on for a few seconds before they were devoured by the endless sword qi. Flesh and blood fell from the sky, and the smell of blood could be detected within several tens of feet.
Elsewhere, Meng Yue’s Fire Dragon Talisman and Qiu Changyuan’s Four-armed, Six-eyed Monster Ape each took care of a demon worm.
“Brother Lu!” freewebnøvel.com
“We owe you big time this time, Brother Lu!”
The three of them moved closer to Lu Xuan, with Qiu Changyuan’s address naturally changing from Daoist friend to Brother, and Meng Yue’s eyes were full of gratitude.
“I didn’t expect Brother Lu to have such a potent high-grade Sword Talisman.”
“Three fourth grade Sword Talismans, Brother Lu, you’re really generous!”
“Without these three Talismans, perhaps we four would have been seriously injured, even possibly fallen here.”
With the lowest cultivation level and the fewest treasures, Sun Yun Ming sincerely marvelled, thinking of his possible outcome, his eyes revealing a fearful expression.
“Ah, before coming out, to enhance my own survival capability, I exchanged all these Spirit Stones I’ve been saving over the years from my Sword Hall Fellows for these few Fourth Grade Talismans.”
“I’ve ended up using up all my trump cards here.”
Lu Xuan looked at the residual traces of sword qi, his expression portraying deep regret.
“However, successfully dealing with these Demon Insects, can be considered a good use.”
He said with a smile.
Hearing this, the three of them once again expressed their gratitude.
“Brother Lu, most of these insects were dealt with by you, hence you should be the first to pick the booty.”
Meng Yue proposed, and Qiu Changyuan and the others had no objections.
“Most of these insects are of the fourth grade, perhaps they’ve already condensed Demon Cores within their bodies, to prepare for breaking through to the fifth grade and forming Demon Cores.”
“In addition, the Demon Insect Skin Shell is also a treasure, worth quite a lot of Spirit Stones.”
Qiu Changyuan from the Ten Thousand Beast Gate, who has a good understanding of demon insects, said.
As the four of them meticulously scanned the surroundings, they indeed found three earthy yellow Stone Beads from the insect corpses, rich in spiritual power, obviously extraordinary.
Seven insect skin shells were also processed, but due to the influence of the Roaring Sea Sword Charm, they weren’t very well preserved.
“I want one Demon Core, three Demon Insect Skin Shells, and all the collected Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood. How do the three of you feel about this?”
Lu Xuan said solemnly.
“Alright.”
“No objections.”
“Of course, Brother Lu.”
The three glanced at each other and agreed unanimously.
With two more Demon Cores and four Skin Shells, it’s already beyond their expectations, as for the Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood and the like, in their eyes, are merely remnants that hold far less value than the Cores and Skin Shells.
During the process of dealing with seven Demon Insects, Lu Xuan’s three Fourth Grade Sword Talismans played a significant role, and he also saved Qiu Changyuan during the insect attack. Leaving this much for the three of them was already quite generous.
Lu Xuan stored his share of the booty in his storage bag, the huge amount of Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood almost filled the bag.
“Luckily, I brought several extra ones, I can transfer them back to the Gluttonous Insect Pouch later.”
He thought to himself, not even letting go of blood and flesh the size of a fist.
There was no choice, the Underworld Court’s demand for flesh and blood is too high.
Making a living is no easy task!
