Chapter 313: Small Gift
"We've got a big catch!"
Seeing the young man who was about to become a blood puppet, Lu Xuan became alert.
Since the encounter with the thin cultivator, he had discovered and dealt with more than ten wandering cultivators contaminated by evil spirits. Unexpectedly, there were so many blood-congealing Yin Insects actively seeking him out.
"Thank you, senior."
The young man bowed shyly, and the blood color continued to rise towards his head.
Around a dozen people kept moving, subtly surrounding Lu Xuan.
"No need to be so polite. Since it's our first meeting, I'll give you a few small gifts to play with."
With a kind expression, Lu Xuan took out three crimson stone beads from his storage bag.
With the Illusion Breaking Eye Technique, Lu Xuan noticed that the bloodlines in the young man and many other cultivators around him were becoming increasingly active.
"Oops, they slipped out of my hand." Lu Xuan exclaimed in surprise and acted swiftly.
The three explosive beads fell, forming a triangular shape as they flew out.
At the same time, blood arrows shot out from the young man's seven orifices, and a huge blood cavity covered his head in an instant.
The cavity emitted a strong bloody smell as it shot towards Lu Xuan like lightning.
Before it could fully form, Lu Xuan leaped into the air.NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
With a bang.
The three explosive beads exploded, engulfing all contaminated cultivators in flames akin to scorching lava.
Blood-congealing Yin Insects flew out from their bodies, with pale red wings and blood-red tentacles that burned like festering sores, continuing to smolder.
"Ah!"
The young blood puppet's ambush failed, and he was instead severely injured by Lu Xuan's explosive beads. In pain, countless blood-red tentacles sprouted from his body, turning him into a bloodworm monster with blood-colored patterned wings, flying towards Lu Xuan in mid-air.
Numerous blood-red tentacles sprouted from his body, resembling spears as they attacked Lu Xuan from all directions.
Lu Xuan remained calm, his spiritual power surging. He formed a sword seal, and the Wind and Thunder Sword transformed into a black light, slashing towards the bloodworm monster.
In an instant, the vast square was filled with thunderous roars and sword qi crisscrossing.
Blood-red tentacles were cut in half by the Wind and Thunder Sword, falling to the ground and wriggling aimlessly.
When fishing near the coast, Lu Xuan noticed abnormalities and, along with Zhou Bingyu, returned to the island they were stationed on, making ample arrangements.
When the evil spirits began to manifest and erupt, they were well prepared and did not fall into a state of panic.
But the tenacity of the evil spirits exceeded his imagination.
Firstly, they were difficult to detect and integrated with the host, making it likely that Qi cultivation cultivators would overlook them during searches.
Furthermore, ordinary cultivators found it challenging to deal with attacks from evil spirits. Apart from some methods of dispelling evil, most of the time, they couldn't cause much harm to them.
So, he had been busy recently, rushing around to put out fires, hardly having any time to rest, let alone go fishing.
Suddenly, a messaging talisman appeared in front of him.
Shi Zhong sensed the faint aura of Lu Xuan on the talisman and activated it without worry, hearing a familiar voice.
"Friend Shi, how have you been lately?"
"On Empty Abyss Island, many traces of evil spirits have been found. From what I understand, those blood insects are called blood-congealing Yin Insects. They can silently devour all the blood of their host and store it in their own body, which is a common method for practitioners of blood cultivation to obtain essence blood."
"Therefore, there may be evil cultivators behind this. Please be careful."
"In addition to the usual methods of dispelling evil and purification talismans, fire-type techniques can also cause some damage to evil spirits. Sword techniques of the radiant and righteous type may also have miraculous effects."
Shi Zhong pondered for a moment before inputting a message into the talisman.
For him, Lu Xuan's action was like a timely assistance in times of need.
Detailed introduction of the origin and abilities of the evil spirits, providing solutions, and pointing out the hidden dangers behind it, made Shi Zhong much more relaxed all of a sudden.
On Empty Abyss Island, two messaging talismans fell into Lu Xuan's courtyard in succession
.
They were from Shi Zhong and Zhou Bingyu, respectively, expressing their gratitude to Lu Xuan and specifically mentioning that after dealing with the invading evil spirits, they would search for information about Spirit Nectar for him.
"It's not in vain to send out this goodwill."
Lu Xuan held the talismans and sighed inwardly.
After dealing with the evil spirits on Empty Abyss Island, Lu Xuan didn't bother with other islands invaded by the evil spirits. Instead, he casually conveyed some information about the evil spirits to Shi Zhong and Zhou Bingyu. Although the two of them came from prominent backgrounds and had broad knowledge, blood-congealing Yin Insects were still evil creatures, and without Lu Xuan's abilities, even if they had heard of them, they might not be able to deal with them properly.
So, he gave them a little favor, and they didn't disappoint him either. After receiving Lu Xuan's message, they both expressed their gratitude separately.
