Chapter 329: Chapter 329 - 327 Underworld Services_l

“You?!”

“Friend Lu from Sky Sword Sect, I didn’t expect to run into you here.”

The sudden voice made Ning DeShan’s heart turn cold. He looked towards the sound and saw a handsome young man smiling at him.

“This Secret Land is neither too big nor too small. Running into you in this abandoned Medicine Garden must be fate.

Lu Xuan held an ancient sword sheath, maintaining distance from the Dark Vulture Elder.

“Indeed, I found a Doushu Pan Peach spirit tree here, with six Spirit Peaches on it. What do you think about sharing them equally with me?”

Ning DeShan asked tentatively.

“I dare not share the Spirit Peaches with you, I’m afraid I might not get a share of the Spirit Peaches, but end up in pieces instead.”

Lu Xuan looked at the old woman’s corpse on the ground, implying something.

Ning DeShan’s expression darkened considerably.

“It seems Friend Lu has seen something he shouldn’t have.”

“Good, I can just settle the score with you. I remember the matter of the Spiritual Fish very clearly.”

He said fiercely.

Lu Xuan caused his Ning Family to suffer heavy losses and witnessed his ignoble deeds. He couldn’tbe allowed to live.

From the information he collected, Lu Xuan, although a member of the famous Sky Sword Sect in the Cultivation World, spent almost every day with Spirit Plants and was just a Spirit Plant Master skilled in the path of spiritual plants.

So, for his fight with Lu Xuan, he felt a little bit more confident.

He was determined to get the Doushu Pan Peach spirit fruit.

Before his words fell, a shuttle-shaped Magic Tool whistled and charged at Lu

Xuan at high speed.

As swift as a bolt of lightning, it arrived in front of Lu Xuan before he could react.

Lu Xuan was undaunted, his Purple Lightning Sword, with a thunderous arc, hit the middle of the shuttle-shaped Magic Tool.

Ning DeShan naturally didn’t expect an ordinary third rank magic artefact could pose a great threat to Lu Xuan. His arm, which had just recovered more than half, surged with black light, a large amount of flesh and blood melted, and his thick arm shrunk into a piece of dead wood in an instant.

His palm turned into a black claw, almost ignoring the distance between him and Lu Xuan, and quickly clawed at Lu Xuan’s heart.

Lu Xuan didn’t think about dodging, but faced it head-on. His arm glowed like clear jade, and with his hands crossed, he guarded his chest.

A faint dragon chant sounded, and fine scales appeared instantly in front of his arm.

With his azure bone and brief half-dragon transformation, Lu Xuan safe and sound, blocked Ning DeShan’s Heart Locking Claw secret technique.

Ning DeShan was horrified. Although his essence blood hadn’t recovered to its best state and the continuous use of the Heart Locking Claw technique put a massive burden on his physical body, a weakened secret technique was not something a Foundation Establishment First-term Stage Cultivator could easily block!

” I can’ t believe you’ ve been hiding so deeply!”

Ning DeShan exclaimed in surprise.

Such a strong body, not even Foundation Establishment Mid-term or late-term cultivators could possess such strength.

He made a decisive decision, not caring about the Doushu Pan Peach spirit fruit that greatly attracted him, turned and fled at high speed out of the Medicine

Garden.

If he continued to stay here, let alone eating the Spirit Peach to increase his lifespan, it would be hard to maintain his current lifespan. It would be better to run away first, then look for an opportunity to snatch the Doushu Pan Peach spirit fruit from Lu Xuan’s hands.

Lu Xuan had already exposed some of his strength in front of him, he certainly wouldn’t let him leave so easily.

Ten feet ahead of Ning DeShan, a wide crack suddenly appeared in the void, from which a grey-white pupil drilled out, staring head-on at the Dark Vulture

Elder.

In an instant, Ning DeShan felt as if he had entered an illusory world, losing himself in layers upon layers of illusions.

Realizing things were going south, he protected his spirit, biting the tip of his tongue hard.

A strong scent of blood overwhelmed him, freeing him from the illusion technique.

Overjoyed, he didn’t spare a glance for the Void Nightmare Eye in mid-air, rushing away at top speed instead.

“Kill it, Spears!”

A bright voice echoed, soon followed by a white bone spear coming from his rear. It speared him directly.

Immediately, the lodged white bone demon puppet inside him rapidly transformed, producing innumerable slender tentacle-hke bones, piercing out from his body with Ning DeShan as the centre.

The Dark Vulture Elder quickly resembled a porcupine-like entity.

A green light flew out from his crown in a lightning-fast manner, heading somewhere far.

Lu Xuan remained unflappable, pulling out a mysterious lantern from his storage bag.

He held onto the bone-like lamp wick of the lantern with a single hand. The lampshade seemed to be wrapped in human skin. After infusing it with spiritual power, Lu Xuan swung it wildly in mid-air.

Known as the Soul Lantern, a four-level magical tool, this was a reward Lu Xuan received from a light cluster formed inside an underworld spiritual plant, the Ghost Faced Stone Mushroom. Its ability was to attract Yin souls from a certain range. After burning the resentful spirits in the lantern, it could bring chaos to cultivators and demon beasts’ spirits.

The Soul Lantern taken out by Lu Xuan moved in mid-air. Hanging from the base of the lantern, countless dark red lamp wicks, similar to tentacles, gently swayed around, seemingly beckoning their companions to join.

Ning DeShan’s soul hadn’t managed to escape far when he felt an astonishing attraction coming from near the Spirit Peach, involuntarily pushing him to return in front of the Soul Lantern.

The numerous dark red lamp wicks wrapped around the green light, pulling it underneath the lampshade.

Underneath the pale lantern, tightly packed Yin souls with resentful wills suddenly displayed a familiar face. Judging by facial features, it bore a seventy to eighty percent resemblance to Ning DeShan.

Only after Ning DeShan’s soul and bodily flesh were dealt with completely did Lu Xuan come to the corpse’s side, holding a third-grade Purifying Spirit Talisman.

A sprinkling of white spiritual light fell, and nothing unusual happened to the corpse. Only then did Lu Xuan completely let down his guard.

“Well, everything was used to its full extent.”

Lu Xuan looked at Ning DeShan’ s resentful spirit inside the Soul Lantern and thought to himself.

“The resentful spirit of a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator is worth more than a hundred ordinary ones.”

“Then there’s also the flesh and blood of a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator, although it might be a bit old. If I come across any underworld spiritual plants requiring flesh and blood, it could be used as fertilizer.” Lu Xuan, sticking to his principle of not being wasteful, once thought, the bone spikes transformed by the white bone demon puppet quickly retracted, bringing Ning DeShan’s battered body back to his side.

The space inside the Gluttonous Insect Pouch was amazingly large, able to keep things in their original state; there was no need to worry about decay, corpse change, or the like inside.

As for the corpse left behind by the old woman cultivator, since they held no grudge and bore no personal enmity, Lu Xuan cast a Fireball Technique, turning her into ashes, then used the Earth Pulling Technique to bury the ashes in the Spirit Soil.

“Those few weird spiritual plants in the Underworld Court would be extremely suitable.”

“The fifth rank Vast Void Eye appears and disappears unpredictably, delays enemies with its illusion technique, the fourth rank white bone demon puppet changes unpredictably, a killing tool, and the fourth-rank Soul Leading Lantern attracts souls, completely erasing all traces of the corpse on that level.”

“Together with the Thousand Masks that can conceal the real face…”

“It’s like a one-stop underworld service.”

“What a pity that it contradicts with my identity as an ordinary spirit plant cultivator from the Great Sect, so it can only be used under certain specific situations.”

Lu Xuan thought, feeling somewhat regretful.
