Chapter 457 Purchase of Beast Soul
Chapter 457 Purchase of Beast Soul
"Brother, have you found him?"
Xiao Can asked in a voice transmission nearby, but the distance was too far and it couldn't sense anything.
Lu Luan shook his head.
"There are a few immortal cultivators in front. I wonder if the demon cultivator wants to attack them." Xiao Can guessed.
"Ok?"
"Let's do it!"
As soon as it finished speaking, Lu Luan was about to reply, but he sensed a faint fluctuation coming from the front. This movement was very weak and almost imperceptible if you didn't feel it carefully.
"what happened?"
At this moment, the three immortal cultivators in the distance were horrified to find that an extremely strong restraining force appeared around them and the air froze instantly.
Before he could react, his body seemed to be embedded in it, and he could not move even if he struggled hard.
In horror, a figure soon appeared in front of them with cold eyes and expressionless face.
"you……"
Several people wanted to say something, but just as they opened their mouths, the man started moving again.
"what!"
Then I just felt a gust of wind blowing past, and then my stomach started to cramp and hurt. Then I opened my mouth, but even though my throat kept shaking up and down, only a faint sound came out.
It turned out that the man's arm turned into a sharp claw, which dug open their stomachs and directly pulled out their dantian. Although it was very bloody, the blood was confined and did not spray out.
The three of them were like an air bag with a hole in it. Their breath immediately began to weaken and their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Finally, they could no longer withstand the pain, their minds faded, and they passed out.
After finishing the work, Lu Fenghai waved his sleeves and packed up the three people, muttering, "They are just a few in the early stage of foundation building. I don't know if the quality of the blood they can refine is good enough."
Then he turned around and dived deep into the bloody swamp and disappeared.
The means were very efficient, and the hunt was completed in just three breaths.
The force that imprisoned the surroundings disappeared, and the still grass and trees continued to sway in the wind as if nothing had happened.
After a while, Lu Luan appeared in this place.
Looking around, he said with some surprise: "It's really clean, there is no trace left."
Lu Fenghai's methods were obviously very skilled and experienced. He did not leave any trace on the ground, so no one could tell that three cultivators had been killed here.
"Brother, he is so cautious. I didn't feel any movement just now."
There was surprise in Xiao Can's eyes. You know, they were not far away. If it weren't for the naked eye, they would not be detected by perception alone.
"We must be careful. Cultivators have sensitive perceptions. The battles at the Foundation Establishment stage are too noisy. Any casual movement can be heard by cultivators within a hundred miles." Lu Luan said.
In this kind of behavior, which is similar to killing people for treasure, the target chosen is usually much weaker than oneself, so that one can kill instantly, cleanly and neatly without leaving any tails. Otherwise, if one chooses someone whose strength gap is not too big, and cannot be taken down in a short time, it will be bad if other people are attracted.
"However, the treasure he used to restrain people is really good. It can make three people unable to move in an instant."
He thought of the three people who were unable to move, and realized that this was the weapon for killing people and stealing treasures.
"Brother, what did he do with those three people?" Xiao Can asked.
Lu Luan replied calmly: "It's nothing more than making pills or using them as food."
"Can people be used to make pills?"
"Well, if some parts of monsters can be used to make pills, then naturally humans can too, especially those who practice Taoism."
"Why do people who cultivate immortality?"
Lu Luan touched its little head and explained, "Spiritual medicine absorbs spiritual energy to grow, and immortal cultivators absorb spiritual energy to improve their cultivation. So in the eyes of other races on Cangming Star, immortal cultivators are actually not much different from spiritual medicine."
He looked away and continued, "Demon cultivators are no different from monster beasts, they eat raw meat and drink blood. Demon cultivators often use the lives of living beings to practice, so although both absorb spiritual energy, their bodies are very turbid, unlike the pure ones of immortal cultivators."
He had practiced the blood refining technique, and the yaksha had smelled that his body was unclean before when he was underground.
Xiao Can understood and muttered, "No wonder so many races want to take advantage of the human race. Fortunately, there are big sects of the immortal way to support us at the border."
"Ah."
"Brother, are we going to follow him next?" it asked.
After Lu Luan thought for a moment, he shook his head and said, "No need. You go back to Huang Ting first. I have other plans next."
"it is good."
Xiao Can nodded and went into the Huangting.
After Lu Luan glanced at the direction where the demon cultivator left, he murmured, "Let's go buy enough beast souls to practice the God-Slaying Technique. If we catch this big fish, I wonder how much we will gain."
Next he flew out of the Bloody Swamp.
This Lu Fenghai is now capturing cultivators everywhere. He has no means to deal with him, and even if he has a chance to attack, he has no guarantee of winning. Anyway, he knows where his lair is, so he can just come back and wait for him.
It didn't take him long to fly out of the Blood Swamp. After determining his location, he flew towards the sporadically posted trading locations based on the information about the Uncertain Wasteland he had purchased earlier.
After parting with Xu Feng, plus the gains in the Blood Swamp, he had quite a bit of wealth in his storage ring during this period.
When he arrived at those trading places, he first took the time to exchange the things in his storage ring for spirit stones.
Just like that, two days passed.
Outside a huge valley surrounded by mountains.
"finally reached."
Lu Luan fell from the air, looked at the buildings in the valley and smiled, then took a step and flew inside.
This is a large trading place around the Blood Swamp.
In two days, he processed all the things he had harvested. Together with the ones he originally had on him, there were now nearly three thousand intermediate spirit stones in his storage ring. These spirit stones were enough to buy beast souls to produce magic fruits.
After entering, he began to inquire about the news of beast souls. This was near the Blood Swamp, so things like beast souls were not difficult to find.
Half an hour later, in a building.
"Daoyou, how about this one?"
In the spacious and bright room, a woman in white asked, pointing at a tiger-shaped beast soul sealed in a formation.
Lu Luan did not hide his strength. As he was in the late stage of foundation building, he was treated as a VIP. The woman in front of him was the manager of this shop.
He took a look and shook his head, saying, "This beast soul's intelligence is not high enough, Daoist friend, don't you have one with higher intelligence?"
The higher the spiritual intelligence of the soul, the better the quality of the magic fruit it produces. If there are no souls of magic cultivators or monster cultivators, one can only look for beast souls with high spiritual intelligence.
“Although there are beast souls with higher intelligence, they are all monsters in the initial stage of foundation building, and their soul power is poor.” The woman said regretfully.
"Hey."
Lu Luan sighed lightly, disappointment in his eyes.
"Fellow Daoist, what do you want the beast soul for?" the woman asked.
After taking a sip of tea, Lu Luan said earnestly, "Become a spirit and refine a treasure to guard my home. I want to go out and seek opportunities to improve my cultivation, but my family is weak and I am the strongest in the family. I can't rest assured that my family will be left without a foundation if I leave rashly. If I die outside, with this thing, my family will not be without any foundation."
"I see. It really requires a very intelligent and powerful beast soul."
The woman nodded silently in agreement, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"Thank you for your hospitality, my friend. Since your store doesn't have anything suitable, I'll go ask somewhere else."
Lu Luan bowed and prepared to leave.
"Fellow Taoist, please wait."
The woman wanted to say something but stopped herself when she saw him leaving. She stood up to stop him and then said, "Daoyou, I received news that several elders from the Yiqi Sect on the Wuding River just returned from Yongquanzhou. I heard that they are fighting against the Nether Insect Tribe together with the disciples of the Pengling Sect. I think they should have the souls of the Nether Insect Tribe."
Yongquanzhou is now a battlefield in the wilderness where humans fight against demons and foreign races.
"Yiqi Sect, the souls of the Nether Insect Clan? Fellow Daoist, please tell me in detail." Lu Luan's heart moved and he sat down again.
The woman stood up and poured him some tea, saying, "Yes, the soul of the underworld worm is special. Using it to refine a weapon spirit is much stronger than the soul of an ordinary monster beast. Since you care so much about your family, why not go to the Yiqi Sect and ask."
"The soul is special, you can go and see it."
Lu Luan thought to himself, after all, the quality of the magic fruit is related to the type of soul, just as the fruit produced by a human soul is better than that produced by a monster.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist."
Lu Luan bowed and thanked him.
"You're welcome. It's just a small favor. It's not easy. Just consider it as a good deed. I hope this can help you." The woman looked very kind.
After chatting for a few more words, he left the commercial building.
In the air, Lu Luan looked into the distance and it disappeared into the horizon.
He knew the Yiqi Sect. It was much stronger than the Baoshan Sect he met when he first came to the Blood Swamp. It was very famous and one of the most powerful forces in the Wuding Wasteland. When he came here, he had a brief understanding of the various forces in the wasteland and naturally knew the location of the Yiqi Sect.
Moreover, that sect was not very far from the Blood Swamp. For him, it was only about four hours' journey.
The sun sets in the west and it is dusk.
An oasis, rare in the boundless wasteland, appeared before our eyes, with green mountains and clear waters, curling mist, and abundant spiritual energy that made people feel refreshed.
After arriving here, the population gradually increased, and many small forces were scattered here.
"It seems that the Yiqi Sect is running this well."
There was some surprise in Lu Luan's eyes.
Continuing to go deeper, gradually, a magnificent immortal gate appeared in front of us.
The spiritual light was shining everywhere, the peaks were circling in the sky, and from time to time, disciples flew out on swords and cranes.
As soon as he approached, he felt a force blocking him out, and at the same time he also felt the power of the soul sweeping through his body.
What stopped him was naturally the Yiqi Sect's mountain protection formation.
Unable to get in, Lu Luan did not act rashly, but stood quietly where he was.
At the same time, the soul spread out and communicated with the people inside.
After getting permission, not long after, a crane was seen flying out of the door.
"I've met senior."
When she arrived in front of him, the female disciple on the crane's back bowed to him. She looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, very youthful, lively and full of vigor.
"You are Welcome."
Lu Luan said softly.
"Senior, please come with me."
The woman smiled and was very polite to him as a junior. She drove the crane and turned to fly inside.
Lu Luan followed beside her, and the formation barrier that had blocked him just now had disappeared.
"Senior, please come with me to Yunshui Pavilion and wait. The elder is still dealing with some trivial matters." The disciple said to him.
"No problem, lead the way."
Looking at the unique layout around him and the energetic young disciples, Lu Luan said casually: "Your sect is really magnificent and full of vitality."
"Senior, you are joking. Compared with other forces in the Wilderness, our sect is nothing." Although the woman spoke modestly, she couldn't help but reveal pride in her eyes when she heard her sect being praised.
"What is that mountain?"
Lu Luan discovered that there was a high peak in the distance with amazing spiritual energy and lush vegetation, which was very different from other places, so he became curious.
The female disciple introduced: "Senior, that is the Spiritual Medicine Peak, where spiritual medicines are planted."
"Spiritual Medicine Peak, I heard that your sect has a Spiritual Medicine Fairy who has transformed into a human form at the Golden Core Realm. Could it be that she lives on that mountain?" Lu Luan asked.
It is no secret that the Yiqi Sect has a magical medicine that can transform into a golden elixir and is the supreme elder. This has been known to many people for decades.
"Yes, senior."
Soon, the female disciple brought him to a pavilion in the lake.
"Senior, this is it."
The disciple jumped down from the crane and led Lu Luan to the low sandalwood table in the pavilion.
"Ah."
Lu Luan nodded slightly and sat down. The female disciple did not leave, but picked up the tea that was always prepared on the table and poured him some spiritual tea.
Seeing that the elder of Yiqi Sect had not come, he started chatting with the female disciple while appreciating the scenery of the sect. Gradually, he got to know more about Yiqi Sect.
……
"Fellow Daoist, I've been waiting for a long time. Please don't blame me, please don't blame me."
Half a minute later, an old man with white beard slowly fell from the sky.
"Fellow."
Lu Luan stood up, bowed and greeted everyone.
The old man extended his hand to signal the female disciple that she could leave, and then looked at Lu Luan apologetically: "I'm sorry, Daoist friend, I have been busy with some trivial matters and couldn't get away."
"No problem."
The old man sat down opposite him and asked with a smile, "I am Hu Ting, may I know your name?"
"Fellow Daoist Hu, my surname is Lu." Lu Luan replied. The man in front of him was an elder who was half a step away from the Golden Core stage. He had heard from previous female disciples that he had tried to reach the Golden Core stage, but unfortunately he failed and damaged his foundation.
"Friend Lu, in our previous telepathic communication, you said that you came here to do business. I wonder if that is true?" the old man asked.
Lu Luan smiled and said, "Friend Hu just came from Yongquanzhou, and I want to buy some special things."
When he was communicating with the people inside outside the Yiqi Sect before, he had already stated his purpose. The old man in front of him was one of the elders who returned from Yongquanzhou.
"what?"
Lu Luan said seriously, "Do you have the soul of a dark insect?"
Hu Ting smiled, drank a cup of tea and said, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Lu is really well-informed. When I was in Yongquanzhou, I worked with the inner disciples of Pengling Sect to kill the insect soldiers and generals of the Nether Insect Tribe."
