I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 552: 550: You are the Evil Cultivator!_1
Chapter 552 -550: You are the Evil Cultivator!_1
The head fell off, and a dim light burst out from inside, arriving in front of Lu Xuan’s head, trying to drill in.
A clear light emerged from the top of Lu Xuan’s head. The Clear Dragonfly Feather Robe firmly blocked the soul of Chen Luo who was trying to seize his body.
“Junior Brother Lu! Spare me!”
A plea for mercy faintly came out from the dim light, it was Chen Luo.
“My physical body has been destroyed, only a remnant of my soul remains. Remembering our bond as fellow disciples, please spare your senior brother and give me a chance to live.”
Chen Luo’s voice was filled with pleading.
“Rest assured, I won’t be like you, brother, harbouring the idea of a soul search.”
A faint smile emerged on Lu Xuan’s face, passing a thought to Chen Luo’s soul.
“But it seems brother has no soul-preserving item. Out here in the Black Demon Abyss, you might encounter some evil cultivators. How about taking shelter in this artifact of mine to avoid trouble?”
Before Lu Xuan could finish speaking, the dim light immediately sensed something wrong and swiftly flew away like a shooting star.
Just as it was about to escape, a strong suction force came from Lu Xuan’s direction, compelling the soul to retreat back.
An eerie lantern appeared in front of Lu Xuan.
The lantern handle was long and thin like a bone, stark white. The lampshade seemed to be made of skin, and a multitude of dark red lamp wicks hanging below the lamp were gently swaying, as if welcoming Chen Luo’s soul.
Upon seeing the Soul Lantern Artifact for the first time, Chen Luo was nearly scared to death on the spot as the dim light was moving fast towards the Soul Lantern.
“Lu Xuan! You are the real Evil Cultivator!”
The moment the dim light was absorbed by the Soul Lantern, it glanced at Lu Xuan chasing after the burly body cultivator’s back and cried out in despair.
Lu Xuan’s figure moved like a flash of light, swiftly weaving through the trees.
He didn’t take long to deal with Chen Luo, but the burly body cultivator seized the opportunity to escape at top speed.
His strong spiritual consciousness locked onto the aura of the body cultivator, and from on high, the Void Nightmare Eye swiftly moved.
Within the dense woods, a Foundation Establishment Perfect cultivator was running towards the Black Demon Abyss with the fastest speed he could muster.
“As long as I enter the Black Demon Abyss, there will be a glimmer of hope.”
The environment of the Black Demon Abyss was complex, filled with various natural restrictions everywhere. With numerous cultivators and demon emissaries lurking inside, one could potentially escape once inside.
Although he didn’t see Lu Xuan deal with Chen Luo, he could imagine what had happened to Chen Luo. Seizing that opportunity, he escaped at high speed.
“Almost there!” freewebnøvel.coɱ
Just as a ray of hope for survival was kindling in his heart, a familiar grey eye suddenly appeared in front of him.
“It’s an illusion again!”
A thought flashed in his mind, and he instantly fell into multiple illusions.
His last bit of clarity made him bite the tip of his tongue hard. The intense pain brought him back to his senses to some extent.
Just as he returned to his normal state, he saw three resplendent suns hanging high in the sky. Countless red sword energy seemed to be rays of sunlight emitted from the suns, covering every area of his body.
The sunlight of the intense sun was blazing, and his mind seemed to sink into it. Before he could react, he was chopped into countless pieces by the dazzling sword Qi.
“Three Great Sun Sword Charms, quick to eliminate a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Perfect Realm, it’s not too bad of a loss.”
A sigh echoed in Lu Xuan’s heart.
He had tracked down this body cultivator using the fifth rank Vast Void Eye, then used illusion techniques to immobilize him for several breaths. Seizing this chance, he tossed out three Four Product Sun Sword Talismans, effortlessly defeating him.
“At least my storage bag was kept intact.”
He summoned the soul lantern that was in the distance using his spiritual sense and planted it into the ground. The lantern gently swayed, and a faint light wafted out from the relatively intact head of the Body Cultivator.
Before he could react, he absorbed the soul of the Body Cultivator into the lantern.
“Two souls of Foundation Establishment Perfect cultivators should be enough to feed the Yin Cry Wood for a while,” Lu Xuan said leisurely.
He collected the storage bags of the two cultivators who had ambushed him, then approached their corpses and gathered up the flesh and blood, thoroughly erasing all traces of their bodies.
Lastly, he activated several Exorcism Talismans around the area. The glowing white light illuminated a large section of the woods. After seeing no abnormalities with the talisman, Lu Xuan finally felt at ease and quickly fled the scene of the fight.
It wasn’t until he was dozens of miles away that Lu Xuan stopped and began to reflect on the gains and losses from the battle.
At this moment, after fully stretching his muscles and bones, he felt a warm sensation inside his body, as if he were a furnace on fire.
His body was still being nourished by the residual power of the Tai Sui’s Meat.
“I didn’t expect that I could hold my own under the attack of a Foundation Establishment Perfect Body Cultivator with just my flesh body. However, using only this method, it would be tough to defeat them,” he thought.
He now had a full understanding of the power of his flesh body.
After practicing “LiuLi Bone-Tempering Method,” “Transforming Dragon in the Void,” and taking Jade Scale Fruit, Gold Marrow Jade Liquid, Tai Sui’s Meat, and many other heavenly treasures, his flesh body had become extraordinarily powerful.
Being able to contend with a Foundation Establishment Perfect Body Cultivator was the best proof.
If they had taken into account his other treasures, his strength would be even more impressive.
The two Foundation Establishment Perfect cultivators likely never expected an intermediate-stage Spirit Plant Master like him to defeat them so easily.
Lu Xuan mused.
“As for killing a fellow disciple, though it was justified, it’s still best to keep the sect in the dark to avoid any unnecessary trouble,” he thought.
“Chen Luo, despite probing about my whereabouts in Black Star City, probably didn’t consider that I can turn the tables on him. Even if the sect finds out he’s dead in the future, they’ll probably suspect he died in the Black Demon Abyss, killed by some mysterious demon envoy or evil cultivator.”
“The last time we disciples gathered, one Junior Brother mentioned that Brother Zhou was asking about me.”
“Though it’s likely that Chen Luo asked Brother Zhou, just to be safe, when I get back, I’ll use the Vast Void Eye to watch Brother Zhou for a while to see if there’s any unusual reaction,” Lu Xuan thought cautiously.
“I thought I was low-profile enough, but I’ve still been targeted.”
“All I want to do is cultivate crops peacefully and be a regular Spirit Plant Master. Why must they disturb my tranquil life?”
Lu Xuan weighed the storage bag in his hand, his eyes deep.
He was always on good terms with everyone in the sect, and he seldom had conflicts with other disciples. Yet, he was still targeted by Chen Luo, who wanted to search his soul and get his hands on some made-up ancient book.
What a pity. Chen Luo had no idea that Lu Xuan was carrying so many treasures. Chen Luo, despite being a Foundation Establishment Perfect Realm cultivator, was taken care of as easily as if Lu Xuan were drinking water.
“Thank you for the gift of your flesh and soul, Brother Chen,” Lu Xuan said, pulling out the soul lantern and addressing the distorted soul of Chen Luo inside the ghastly white candle.
The soul had already been severely squeezed and was tortured by countless Yin Souls, with only a trace of sanity left, staring bitterly at Lu Xuan from within the lantern.
Lu Xuan smiled slightly and disappeared into the towering trees.
