You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 683: Nurturing the Species with One's Own Body

The remnant soul on the flesh noticed Lu Xuan’s expression and felt that something was amiss.

“Fellow Daoist, falling into your hands is my bad luck. I’ve explained the tracking method you asked about clearly; please give me a swift end!”

“Currently, it’s still just your word. Make a Heart Demon Oath first.”

Lu Xuan pointed to his chin towards the chunks of flesh.

After the cultivator’s divine soul made the Heart Demon Oath, Lu Xuan believed him by seventy to eighty percent.

Following the cultivator’s guidance, he found that Strange Worm in his storage bag and, not wanting to startle it, merely used Prohibitions and Restrictions to trap it, without destroying it directly.

As for the Roushan Cultivator, he had already decided how to handle him.

This sky-filled flesh was most suitable for feeding the Spirit of Flesh and cultivating numerous Weird Spiritual Plants. With both quality and quantity, it was a match for an unknown number of Demon Beasts.

Keeping him alive was firstly to ensure the maximum freshness of the flesh, as cutting it directly from the body was of much lesser quality than storing it in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

Furthermore, with the Mid-term of Nascent Soul Stage Roushan Cultivator’s recuperative abilities, he could continuously proliferate flesh, thus making the most out of his flesh body.

Lu Xuan didn’t rush to feed the Spirit of Flesh but took out the cultivator’s storage bag, broke the simple Prohibitions and Restrictions on it, and took out everything inside.

Two Low-grade magical treasures, one was that weird and mysterious Black Flesh Shield, which possessed strong defensive capabilities while also being able to attack the enemy. The other was the White Bone Hammer, which also had formidable power.

There was also a Five-grade Flying Sword. After a brief examination with his Spiritual Sense, Lu Xuan clearly saw that it was very different from his Peacock King Sword, so he temporarily stored it in the storage bag to deal with at an opportune moment.

There were also several Fourth Grade Magical Tools and a number of bottles and jars, some of which seemed to contain Poison Pills, which could be used to add several new toxins to the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect.

There were also a few Charms, mostly of Third and Fourth Rank, which Lu Xuan’s current level of discernment found too insignificant to care for, but they could still be exchanged for quite a few Spirit Stones.

Finally, there were mountains of Spirit Stones, both Low-grade and Middle Grade in abundance. After a sweep with his Spiritual Sense, he counted no fewer than one hundred thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.

“Perhaps this is the wealth of an ordinary Golden Core Rogue Cultivator?”

Lu Xuan muttered to himself. After all, the man was a Golden Core Intermediate Cultivator, but his possessions were somewhat lacking.

Of course, it was a considerable fortune by any relative measure.

“Although I don’t know what he’s plotting with that gourd of his, just spending a bit of Dustless Flower Pollen to effortlessly obtain a large number of high-rank spirit plants, where else would I find such a good deal?”

Thinking of this, his heart’s joy could no longer be suppressed, and he burst out laughing.

Just as he was about to return to his room after nurturing several spirit plants, suddenly, a dark glimmer flashed in his eyes. Before he could react, the dark light appeared directly in his sea of consciousness, piercing through his divine soul.

“Ahh!!!”

The gaunt elder felt as if his divine soul had shattered. The agony emanating from the depths of his soul caused him to wail continuously, his facial features distorted extremely, with blood gushing from all orifices.

“You want my spirit plants? With your meager mastery over spirit plants, I’m afraid you can’t handle them.”

As his consciousness blurred, he saw a handsome young man appear before him, speaking to him with a gentle tone.

“Is it you? You’re actually not dead?”

Seeing Lu Xuan, the elder’s expression was that of seeing a ghost.

“I’m afraid I’ve disappointed you, fellow Daoist.”

With a thought from Lu Xuan, the multi-armed corpse slave flashed in front of the elder in an instant, swiftly removing the elder’s limbs with its eighteen blue-black arms, then binding his mutilated body firmly like chains.

“Knowing of your interest in my spirit plants, Lu Mou has specially come to invite fellow Daoist into the cave abode, to satisfy your request.”

“But, since there are too many spirit plants in the spirit field, and I fear you might not cope, I can only entrust you with one of my beloved spiritual seeds for you to cultivate.”

“You must take good care of my spirit plant.”

Lu Xuan let out a light chuckle and implanted a piece of dark fanged bones into the mutilated body of the elder.

The bones were a special type of spiritual seed, acquired from the stall of a cultivator, named Logusedemon Bone Demon Seed, ranking sixth grade. It must be planted in a flesh and blood body, using various kinds of bones as nutrients. The closer the spirit plant is to maturation, the more withered the flesh body serving as its spirit field becomes, until death.

“Since you love spirit plants so much, let you properly cultivate a sixth-grade spiritual plant that you previously couldn’t even imagine!”

Lu Xuan smiled softly.

As for the fact that the sixth-grade Logusedemon Bone Demon Seed must be planted in the body of a demonic monster, for him, that was not a big problem. An evil cultivator transforming into a monstrous demon, wouldn’t that be a breeze?
