Chapter 682: Slightly Understand a Thing or Two
“I didn’t expect that simply leaving my cave abode would lead to an encounter with that covetous fat Cultivator who had been eyeing me for a long time.”
“Fortunately, there were scares but no danger, and I dealt with him smoothly, putting an end to it once and for all.”
“Wait, it hasn’t been completely resolved yet, at least I need to figure out how he knew of my whereabouts.”
In the Thunderfire Star Cave, Lu Xuan emerged from the soil and appeared outside the cave’s Formation.
The Void Nightmare Eye had already confirmed there were no abnormalities around, he immediately opened the Formation, entered the cave, and only then did his hanging heart relax.
“This time, dealing with a Golden Core Intermediate Cultivator seemed smooth, but in reality, I nearly used all of my methods.”
Lu Xuan, at the “Early Core Formation stage”, did not harbor any thoughts of arrogance from taking down a Golden Core Intermediate Cultivator.
The ease of his opponent’s demise was entirely due to the high-rank treasures he had acquired from the Light Cluster.
The Low-grade magical treasure Peacock King Sword, Gluttonous Insect Pouch, Fifth-Rank Treasure Multi-armed Corpse Slave, Mirage Sound Pearl, Void Nightmare Eye, Soul Piercing Needle, as well as two crucial Sixth-Grade treasures.
The Ghost Sorrow Strange Diagram with its powerful control, and the Incarnation of Vajra in Hell with its strong offensive capabilities, which also counteracted the Monster Demon and Evil Haunted Will.
Various High Rank Treasure Items, coupled with his robust Flesh Body and two “Fifth-Rank Sword Arts”, made it easy to deal with his opponent.
As for the numerous pieces of flesh and blood kept in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch, there was no need to worry about them harming him.
After the Gluttonous Insect Pouch was sacrificed and became a Magic Treasure, its space became even larger and it could send and receive items freely. It also gained the sealing function possessed by most space-type treasures.
Moreover, most of the flesh and blood chunks were suppressed by the Buddhist Power of the Incarnation of Vajra in Hell, and the few that escaped were severely injured and unable to cause any trouble.
“It’s time to settle the score with you.”
He arrived in the courtyard, laid down a prohibition, the Peacock King Sword flying around his body in anticipation, with the Taiyi Thunder Amulet ready to be unleashed.
Then, with a thought, dozens of black and red flesh chunks flew out from the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.
No sooner had they appeared than the flesh, as if freed from its shackles, actively moved toward each other.
Lu Xuan let out a cold laugh, the Peacock King Sword emitted a crisp sword cry, the Buddha’s light surged, and a golden light surrounded all the flesh turning them back into uniform chunks.
The flesh, not willing to give up, grew greenish-black tendrils on its surface and thrashed wildly, attempting to connect with the other chunks.
“If you are uncooperative, then I have no choice but to employ some special techniques.”
A hint of a smile appeared at the corner of Lu Xuan’s mouth.
“I happened upon an Evil Path technique a while back, and I know a thing or two about soul searching secret techniques, but I have not yet had the opportunity to use them. I can just use you as a test subject for my experiments.”
As Lu Xuan spoke, before the flesh in front had any reaction, a drop of essence blood oozed from his fingertip. With a thought of his spiritual sense, streaks of black patterns flew out from the Cultivator’s flesh fragments, merging into the essence blood.
All the essence blood within the flesh ignited instantaneously, the blood fire clung like Clinging to the bone, impossible to dispel, not only affecting the flesh but also seemed to burn the Cultivator’s divine soul.
Lu Xuan quietly watched the flesh sizzle, hearing the Cultivator’s pained wails.
This technique was known as the Blood Burning Technique, derived from the Sixth Grade Technique “Blood Spirit Scripture”. Although Lu Xuan had not cultivated the technique, he had mastered a few Blood Path secret techniques attached to the scripture during his free time, perfectly suitable for the current situation.
“Stop, Friend, I’ll talk!”
Only when the portly Cultivator’s remnant soul begged him did Lu Xuan retract the Blood Burning Secret Technique.
“I did indeed know that you were likely to attend the exchange meet organized by the Spirit Plant Masters, so I intentionally sought out a Cultivator from the Green Wood Star Cave and used some minor tricks to find out about your movements.”
“Who?”
Lu Xuan’s expression turned icy.
“A Golden Core True Person of the Green Wood Star Cave, Huang Yandong.”
The image of the thin elderly figure immediately surfaced in Lu Xuan’s mind, a figure at the Early Core Formation stage, and he had previously sensed the unique aura of a Weird Spiritual Plant from him.
“He himself cultivates quite a few Spirit Plants and showed great interest in the Spirit Plants in your Spirit Field. Knowing that I intended to deal with you, Friend Lu, he readily agreed.”
“What did he use to find me without me noticing, allowing you to track me down?”
Lu Xuan asked calmly.
“It was a type of pollen from the Dustless Flower, colorless, odorless, and difficult for the naked eye to discern. In an environment like the Green Wood Star Cave, even if it fell on a Cultivator, it wouldn’t arouse any suspicion.”
“But there is a Strange Worm extremely sensitive to the Dustless Flower Pollen, with a unique sensing ability. I used that Strange Worm to roughly figure out your location and set up an ambush in advance,” explained the flesh mountain Cultivator’s divine soul in detail to Lu Xuan.
“Good, you can keep your whole corpse then, but you still have some uses for the moment, so I’ll spare your little life for now,” Lu Xuan said with a smile.
