Chapter 549: Chapter 547: Large Quantity Suffices_1

Upon learning detailed information about this unfamiliar Bone Demon Seed, Lu Xuan was momentarily taken aback.

He had previously nurtured countless Spirit Plants, which are generally planted in Spirit Soil, absorbing Spiritual Energy. Higher-rank Spirit Plants have some special growth conditions, but Spirit Soil and Spiritual Energy are the basics.

Even the many Weird Spiritual Plants in the Underworld Court could not escape this category.

Although many Weird Spiritual Plants have grown to a certain extent in the Underworld, many, such as the Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree and the Holy Baby Fruit, can adversely affect the Spirit Plant Master if cultivated long-term.

But those are all passive effects, and compared to the present Bone Demon Seed, they don’t amount to much.

This Demon Seed directly plants itself inside the living creatures, using their flesh and blood as a Spirit Field, and their bones as nutrients, fostering the Demon Seed until it matures.

As for the carrier in which it grows, the outcome after the Demon Seed matures is all too obvious.

“As expected of an Outer Realm Demon, even the way it nurtures its seeds is so oppressively malicious.”

“Should I plant this Bone Demon Seed or not?”

Lu Xuan fell into contemplation.

“If I want to plant it, I must find a suitable demon or evil spirit to implant the Demon Seed, and then nourish the Demon Seed with various essences of skeletons.”

“If the timing is right, I might as well plant one.”

“I don’t particularly want the Light Cluster reward, I just want to see what the Demon Seed will look like when it matures.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself, temporarily placing the Bone Demon Seed into a Jade Box, sealing it with several exorcism charms, and storing it in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

Soon, it was time to distribute tasks again.

“Continuing to join a group like last time, taking tasks to patrol inside and outside the city, and clear the Demon Beasts seems a bit inappropriate. Perhaps, I could venture deeper by myself.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself. Having more people didn’t help him much and instead made him feel constrained.

He couldn’t conveniently use a lot of treasures, and the souls and other materials from the slain Demon Beasts would be wasted.

He decided to try acting alone this time.

Through observing the last mission, even if he ventured a little deeper, the Demon Beasts and Evil Spirits he encountered were within his control, and he could handle them easily.

As soon as he thought about it, he hesitated no longer, and sought out Zhou Qi, the Cultivator with the highest Cultivation Level from the Sky Sword Sect residing in Black Star City.

“Junior Brother Lu, what brings you here?”

Zhou Qi looked at Lu Xuan with a warm smile on his face.

“Brother Zhou, I came here to discuss the task matter with you.”

“What, do you want to take an easier task than last time?”

“That might be a little difficult. After all, your Foundation Establishment Mid-term Cultivation Level is already quite good within Black Star City. If you stay in the city doing patrol tasks, even though they are easy, it may cause criticism from other cultivators.”

“No. Brother Zhou, I’m not here for extra care this time, but quite the opposite. I want an opportunity to venture deeper and hunt down Demon Beasts.”

“Why does Junior Brother Lu have such a thought?”

Zhou Qi looked surprised.

“From what I know, you’re not good at fighting. If you go deeper, you might encounter danger. Would Junior Brother Lu reconsider?”

Lu Xuan shook his head and said with righteousness,

“Brother Zhou, when I witnessed the disastrous scenes caused by those Demonized Beasts and Evil Spirits, I was filled with anger. Now, all I can think about is killing more Demon Beasts and Evil Spirits, to vent my feelings.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qi solemnly nodded in respect.

“I admire Junior Brother Lu for having such thoughts.”

“However, if there is any mishap, when we return to the sect, I cannot explain it to our Golden Pellet elder uncles, and Senior Brother of Authentic Teachings.”

“Brother Zhou, you need not worry. My Foundation Establishment Mid-term cultivation level is genuine. Besides, before I left, I prepared for myself a few good trump cards, and I always act prudently, I would never put myself in danger.”

“Furthermore, if I don’t use this opportunity to hone my Fight Law experience, how will I slay more Demon Beasts and Evil Spirits?”

Lu XuanYi said in a justified manner, his acting was so superb that he almost moved himself.

“Alright, I’ll take care of it, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

Zhou Qi, who had reached the perfect Foundation Establishment, was the captain of the Sky Sword Sect’s current mission, so he did have this right.

A few days later, a charm came to young Lu Xuan and incessantly flickered outside the formation.

Lu Xuan, who was in the middle of performing the Spirit Rain Technique on a sprout of Water Glow Grass, paused his actions to take the charm.

As expected, the mission had changed, he was to act alone, venturing further outside the city, mainly to clean up the discovered Demon Beasts and Evil Spirits.

“Finally, I can take action.”

A smile appeared on Lu Xuan’s face. After cultivating the numerous Spirit Plants of the Spirit Field for some time, he came on his own to the outskirts of Black Star City.

Outside the city, he found that there were not a few cultivators who were operating alone.

Most of them were quite confident in their own strength, their activities were basically outside of the Black Star City by hundreds of miles, an area that had increased by a lot.

At the same time, the risk increased as well, after all, this place was close to the outer perimeter of the Black Demon Abyss, and the Demon Beasts and Evil Spirits that could appear here were generally stronger.

After Lu Xuan delved in a certain distance, the keen Spiritual Sense swept over, there was no abnormal aura detected within a radius of several miles.

His heart was at ease, with a thought, a thin rift appeared in the high sky and a gray-white pupil emerged from the rift, sweeping the area below before disappearing.

He raised his hand, a similar minute rift appeared on his palm, a gray-white eyeball the size of a thumb tip protruded out, sharing the view observed by the Void Nightmare Eye with Lu Xuan.

“With the most powerful scout, the Void Nightmare Eye, the safety index is directly increased.”

Lu Xuan thought secretly, then took out the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

The Spiritual Sense penetrated into it, a pale-red meatball fell on the ground, bounced high for a long time before finally stopping.

It was the Disaster-level Evil Flesh Spirit that he had always kept in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

The Pale-red meatball rolled around on the ground. The white pupils at the top were always on him, watching Lu Xuan with a touch of resentment. The thin, pale-red flesh floated in the air like water grass, revealing many sharp mouths inside, roaring for food.

“I knew you were starving, don’t worry, I’ll feed you in a moment.”

Seeing the Evil Flesh Spirit like this, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but smile.

There were Golden Core Real People in the Black Star City, and the courtyard’s Protective Array was average. He was afraid it couldn’t cover this Disaster-level Juvenile Evil Spirit’s aura, so he didn’t release it.

Not until today, that this pale-red meatball got the chance for a feast.

“Demon Beast buffets, all sorts of third-grade and fourth-grade Demon Beasts, and mutated species as well, all you can eat!”

Lu Xuan waved his hand, and a large amount of Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood appeared on the ground, enclosing the Pale-red meatball.

The white pupil on top of the pale-red meatball’s head turned around, clearly overwhelmed for a moment.

Blood and flesh on its body cracked open to reveal sharp-toothed mouths, they sucked forcefully towards the blood and flesh surrounding them.

Suddenly, all the Flesh and Blood turned into a sky full of blood mist, completely seeping into the Evil Flesh Spirit’s body.
