Chapter 773: Natural Fertilizer
Chapter 773: Natural Fertilizer
With the appearance of the Prison-Suppressing Vajra, the two evil cultivators at the Golden Core stage were like mice that had stumbled upon a cat, inherently restrained and disadvantaged.
Their mastery over magical artifacts and secret techniques seemed to wane, and after a few exchanges, they found themselves in a dire situation.
High above, the multicolored skin sac let out a sharp, piercing cry upon witnessing the turn of events, knowing that any misstep would cost them their lives.
As the sound wave rippled through the air, the countless skin sacs on the ground seemed to be greatly stimulated, oozing a putrid, pale white liquid from their surfaces as they rushed towards the avatar of Ling Gu like moths to a flame.
Unfazed, Ling Gu stood his ground, channeling his spiritual energy within. Crimson light, akin to raging rivers, surged towards the onslaught of skin sacs.
Amidst the chaos, a large meat blob silently appeared on the battlefield, its furry surface bristling with blood-red arrows that shot forth.
Any skin sac that came into contact with these blood arrows instantly turned dull and lifeless, their spiritual essence severely damaged.
"The Blood Nerve Scripture and Flesh Spirit God complement each other quite well," remarked Lu Xuan, standing quietly not far from the cave abode of Jade Countenance True Man, observing the battle through the palm-sized pupil.
As he mused, he noticed the dwarf cultivator stirring once more.
It seemed that the successive displays of powerful abilities and treasures by Ling Gu had alerted the dwarf to the danger he was in, sparking a desire to retreat.
With a spit of essence blood, the dwarf dispelled the sorrowful aura that enveloped him. His body rapidly stretched and grew, his shriveled limbs transforming into two pairs of fleshy wings, resembling a bizarre serpent with a human head. With a burst of black light, he broke through the restraining grasp of the multi-armed corpse slave and fled.
"Trying to escape? I'll make sure you won't get far, not even with wings," Lu Xuan coldly muttered to himself. With a thought, the silver-white Chiding Thunder Wings emerged from his ribs.
Lightning arcs danced across the wings, and with a gentle flutter, a soft rumble of thunder echoed as he transformed into a streak of silver-white lightning, darting through the air to intercept the fleeing dwarf cultivator.
In just a few breaths, the dwarf had put dozens of miles between them.
He swept his spiritual sense through the surroundings, confirming that nothing was amiss, and relaxed slightly, continuing his hasty escape using his secret technique.
"Fortunately, that person was preoccupied and couldn't pay me any heed, allowing me to escape by a hair's breadth," the dwarf thought, still shaken by the close call.
Initially, he had thought that joining forces with Jade Countenance True Man would make dealing with a mere early Golden Core stage cultivator, who also happened to possess secrets, a simple task.
However, as they had both anticipated, the cultivator did indeed harbor secrets, but they were beyond what the two of them could handle.
"A sixth-grade treasure, high-grade cultivation techniques and abilities, and that ferocious and peculiar puppet..."
"Just who is that guy? How does he possess so many rare techniques and treasures?"
"This won't do. Once I escape, I must find someone to deal with him and claim the treasures he holds."
The dwarf's heart seethed with hatred towards Ling Gu. In this ambush, not only had he gained nothing, but he had also lost many carefully cultivated evil beings, and he had been forced to use a secret technique to escape, depleting his source. It would take a long time for him to recover.
Therefore, if he managed to escape, he would do everything in his power to get rid of Ling Gu.
As these thoughts raced through his mind, suddenly, a silver-white light appeared in the distance.
Like a thunderclap, a young cultivator with silver-white feathered wings as his magical artifact appeared before him.
The dwarf continued his flight, trying to circumvent the newcomer.
However, to his dismay, the young cultivator kept pace, occasionally fluttering his silver-white wings with apparent ease.
"Fellow Daoist, why are you following me?" The dwarf asked, his voice feigning calm as he glanced at the shimmering silver-white wings that emanated lingering spiritual light.
The dwarf cultivator's throat constricted as his blood surged, nearly causing him to spit out a mouthful of essence blood.
"I happened upon a high-level demon beast and ended up in this state by accident, fellow Daoist. There's no need for ridicule," he said through gritted teeth.
"Until we meet again," he transmitted to Lu Xuan before veering off to the side.
"Hahaha!" Lu Xuan burst into laughter, causing the dwarf cultivator's expression to fill with confusion and suspicion. Lu Xuan then casually wiped his hand across his face, revealing features identical to those of his incarnation, Ling Gu.
"Is that what you call the high-level demon beast you encountered?" Lu Xuan asked, his eyes glinting with amusement.
"You!" The dwarf cultivator was horrified, his body suddenly shrinking as if all the blood and flesh were being absorbed by some unseen force.
He then opened his mouth and spat out a blood-red blade that shot towards Lu Xuan.
The blood light was dense and mesmerizing, causing one's spirit to become momentarily lost within it.
However, the Qing Feng Yu Yi emitted a faint, clear qi that instantly cleared Lu Xuan's mind.
Unfazed, Lu Xuan's fingers glowed with crimson light as he effortlessly clamped down on the blood blade, pinching it between two fingers.
A fleeting shadow of a Crimson Phoenix seemed to flash across his fingertips, and the blood blade's surface immediately erupted in crimson flames, burning silently.
"Ahhhhhh!!!!"
The blood blade was a secret treasure the dwarf cultivator had obtained by chance, and he had been refining it within his body, forging a deep connection with it. Now, as it was consumed by the phoenix's heavenly fire, he felt unimaginable pain and couldn't stop his agonized howls.
Lu Xuan's expression remained unchanged as he casually snapped his fingers with his other hand.
A dazzling bolt of golden spiritual lightning appeared out of thin air and circled the strange serpent once before striking it.
The man-headed serpent's body began to crack and rapidly turned to black ash.
A green light shot out from the dwarf cultivator's head, attempting to flee.
However, after only a few miles, a black and white chain drilled out of the void, latching onto the dwarf cultivator's soul and dragging it into a strange lamp in front of Lu Xuan.
Ling Gu descended on a cloud of bloody qi, along with the Meat Spirit God, landing not far from Lu Xuan.
The black and white chain was a soul-seizing secret technique from the sixth-grade manual, the Soul-Securing Scripture, which was incredibly effective against evil spirits and souls.
Even the souls of Golden Core True Immortals would struggle to break free from the grasp of these chains.
Of course, this was also partly due to the severe damage the dwarf cultivator's soul had sustained.
"Have you cleaned everything up?" Lu Xuan asked, looking at the pile of bloody tentacles, the immobilized skin sacs, and the colorful skin sac that was being licked by the numerous strange mouths on the large meat blob.
"Yes," Ling Gu replied hoarsely.
Following Lu Xuan's orders, he and the Meat Spirit God had captured Jade Countenance True Man alive, extracting his soul and leaving behind the numerous evil skin sacs.
Lu Xuan nodded slightly, and the Prison-Suppressing Vajra shrank, transforming back into a palm-sized dark green Buddha statue that landed in his hand.
Ling Gu cultivated various high-level evil arts and techniques and possessed treasures like the multi-armed corpse slave and the Ghost Wail Spirit Picture. However, facing two mid-stage Golden Core cultivators was still a challenge, so Lu Xuan had lent him the Prison-Suppressing Vajra to ensure a swift resolution.
With this Buddhist treasure that restrained demons and evil, the task had indeed become much easier.
"Thank you, fellow Daoists, for providing such excellent natural fertilizer." Lu Xuan raised the soul-capturing lamp and addressed the two Golden Core evil cultivators' souls within it with a smile.
"What good neighbors we have here in the Feng Yuan Star Cave!"
