Chapter 248: Leave the Demon-Slaying to You

Upon returning to his mountain peak, Lu Chen opened the flowing light talisman array.

As he stepped through, a gray vine slipped out from his sleeve.

The vibrant spiritual energy of the plants and trees on the mountain peaks made the vine slightly tipsy, and it twisted and turned as it crawled along the rocky path.

Due to the significant amount of Green Wood Source Qi that Lu Chen had infused into it during its incubation, the Demon-Ghost Vine had developed an intense dependency on him. Most of the time, it stayed hidden within his robe, only venturing out upon their return to the mountain peak to indulge in the lush world filled with spiritual plants.

The gray vine looked left and right, hesitated for a moment, and then turned towards the Four-Starred Earthfire Heart Lotus, the Mystical Insect Vine, and the Spirit-Infused Pine. Ultimately, it chose to settle near the Three-Starred Intoxicating Mystical Peach, not for any particular reason other than its fondness for the vibrant energy in that area.

Wind Falcon, with a belly as round as a balloon, flapped its pale green wings incessantly, transforming into a green streak of light. It used Lu Chen's head as a cushion to bounce off before landing back on the ground.

Attached to its ankle was a bright red chain.

This chain was none other than the Fire Serpent, which had grown considerably over time. Its slender body now exceeded half a zhang in length, adorned with fine, fiery red scales.

Amidst the trees, the Cloud-Stepping Lynx sat with its pair of emerald green eyes, quietly observing Lu Chen as he played with the Wind Falcon and the young serpent.

Soon, it turned away nonchalantly, but its pointed ears remained attentive, facing the direction of Lu Chen.

Only after Lu Chen came over and tugged at the tufts of gray fur on its ear tips did it let out a meaningful low growl before departing unhurriedly.

Back in his dwelling, Lu Chen meticulously sorted through the gains he had acquired from his visit to the Teaching Peak.

During the lesson, he had exchanged insights about spiritual plants with numerous outer sect disciples and encountered many peculiar and rare varieties, greatly broadening his horizons.

As for imparting his own cultivation experiences and refined cultivation methods to them, Lu Chen wasn't concerned about the proverb, "Teach your disciples, starve yourself."

After all, if they wanted to cultivate higher-quality spiritual plants, they would need to continuously experiment and find the optimal cultivation methods through trial and error. In contrast, he could directly understand the instantaneous state of the spiritual plants.

More importantly, spiritual plants held different significance for Lu Chen and the other cultivators.

For Lu Chen, cultivating spiritual plants could grant him cultivation resources and various rare treasures, allowing him to set aside the pursuits of cultivation and exploration of opportunities.

As for the other cultivators, even if they were influenced by Lu Chen's teachings, the extent of change would be extremely limited, as cultivation still took precedence for them.

The next day, Lu Chen accepted Liu Su's invitation to join a small gathering with several fellow senior brothers and sisters who shared similar interests.

Being skilled in the ways of spiritual plants and beasts, they often gathered to exchange experiences and insights.

Now that they knew Lu Chen had recently entered the Langyue Blessed Land, their attitudes towards him had noticeably improved, and they were much warmer than before.

As they indulged in a banquet with flowing wine and delicacies, their conversation turned to the profound. It was a most enjoyable gathering.

In the midst of their lively chat, a faint yet sharp sword cry suddenly reached their ears.

Immediately, an invisible air sword appeared at the edge of each person's ear, silently materializing out of thin air.

The air sword, like a bubble, burst instantly, and a voice resonated in their ears.

"Attention all inner sect disciples!"

"Recently, the Nascent Soul demon, Tong Yin, of the Extreme Yin Sect was besieged and killed by Nascent Soul cultivators from the Three Sects. His secret treasure, the Five-Child Unity Demon, narrowly escaped. At least two of the demon children have fled into Xingyuan City and the surrounding market towns within a two-thousand-li radius."

"To prevent the Unity Demons from indiscriminately killing innocents and wreaking havoc in the cultivation world, and to restore peace to Xingyuan City, we are organizing a mission for inner sect disciples to exterminate these demons."

"Participation is voluntary. For each Unity Demon successfully eradicated, you will be rewarded with a Four-Star Flying Sword."

"The Five-Child Unity Demon! It has fled into the fringe territories of our sect; it must be eradicated!"

A middle-aged cultivator with a mature and steady demeanor spoke out, his voice filled with righteous indignation.

"Indeed! Exterminating demons and defending the Dao is our duty as righteous cultivators. Moreover, this Unity Demon dared to intrude upon the lands of our Sky Sword Sect, signing its own death warrant."

Someone else chimed in agreement.

"And to think there's even a Four-Star Flying Sword as a reward for demon extermination!"

"I was a bit concerned at first, but now that the rewards have been announced, any trace of worry has vanished."

"Haha, let's see who among us will be skilled enough to claim that Four-Star Flying Sword."

The mention of the flying sword as a reward piqued everyone's interest, as if claiming it was already a done deal.

"To think a Nascent Soul cultivator would fall... It's truly terrifying."

Lu Chen's focus, however, was on something else entirely. He had always thought that reaching the Foundation Establishment (Jiedan)

realm would greatly enhance his survival capabilities in the cultivation world, and that Nascent Soul cultivators held an incredibly revered and powerful status, capable of stirring up the winds and summoning the rain.

But now, he had just heard news of a Nascent Soul cultivator perishing.

"Looks like I'll have to keep a low profile within the sect for now."

With his current cultivation base at the early Qi Refining (Jingqi)

stage, he imagined that in the eyes of those Nascent Soul cultivators, he would be no more than a slightly larger ant, easily squashed.

"Senior Sister Liu, I've mostly stayed within the sect and rarely ventured out, so I'm not very knowledgeable about the ways of the cultivation world. May I ask you about this Tong Yin? What's his background?"

He quietly directed his question to Liu Su, whose skin was as fair and pure as jade.

"Tong Yin is a Nascent Soul elder from the Extreme Yin Sect, known for his erratic and violent temperament. His actions are cruel and vicious, earning him the enmity of several major sects."

"He must have enraged someone powerful to warrant a joint attack from multiple Nascent Soul cultivators," someone added.

"What about the Five-Child Unity Demon that escaped? As a Nascent Soul cultivator's killer move, will we be able to handle it with our early and middle Qi Refining cultivation bases?" Lu Chen inquired, gently nodding.

"I've heard a little about that Unity Demon," Liu Su replied. "It's said to be forged through an extremely sinister process."

"Firstly, you need to find five infants with single Five-Element Spirit Roots. During their gestation, their mothers' bodies are refined into yin-evil containers, and they are nourished with the blood and soul essence of thousands of infants. Eventually, you obtain five infant ghosts brimming with resentment, which are then cultivated for a long time to create the Five-Child Unity Magic Treasure."

"It truly goes against the heavens and the natural order. No wonder he ended up besieged and killed even with his Nascent Soul cultivation," Lu Chen sighed.

Having barely engaged in battles since his arrival at Sky Sword Sect, he couldn't fathom such a cruel and vicious scenario.

"When the Unity Demon merges into one, its power is immense, but once separated, its strength is estimated to be equivalent to the early or middle Qi Refining stage."

"If it escapes into the cities or towns of rogue cultivators, it will likely cause countless killings to replenish its supply of blood and soul essence. Xingyuan City is on the fringes of our sect's territory, so it's no wonder the sect is offering such valuable rewards and organizing inner sect disciples to exterminate this demon," someone explained.

"Fellow senior brothers and sisters, shall we join forces to deal with this Unity Demon?"

"Count me in."

"Of course, we must go. It's our duty to exterminate demons and defend the Dao, and we also have a chance to obtain a Four-Star Flying Sword."

"What about you, Junior Brother Lu? Will you join us?"

"Me?"

Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, a smile playing on his lips.

"I've only recently advanced to the Qi Refining stage, and my strength is meager. I think it's best to leave the demon-slaying to all of you senior brothers and sisters."

I'll leave the demon-slaying to you; I'd rather focus on my peaceful farming life.
