Chapter 205: The Six-Eyed Red Iron Scorpion Covered in Treasure
Chapter 205 – Six-Eyed Red Iron Scorpion Covered in Treasure
When the dry and thin old man stepped down from the stage, Lu Xuan got up and walked around to him.
“Fellow Daoist, this is the Third Grade Jiao Vine as well as the Third Grade Spirit Purifying Talisman.”
He took out a deep black, thick and long vine from his storage pouch, as well as two white jade talismans that had a glittering white light.
“Not bad, the quality of the Jiao Vine is beyond my expectations.”
The dry and thin old man scrutinized the Jiao Vine in his hand, which was like a sinister viper, and said with satisfaction.
“Please also collect this fifth grade Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed.”
He handed the Spirit Seed to Lu Xuan.
As soon as the Spirit Seed fell into his hands, Lu Xuan detected a faint Yin cold aura.
The Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed’s form was rather strange, at first glance it looked like an oval embryo with a dry, skinny, grayish-black baby curled up inside.
The baby seemed to sense Lu Xuan’s gaze and turned in the direction of his line of sight without showing any trace of it, and immediately, a wisp of cold and resentful intent spread out, seemingly wanting to penetrate into Lu Xuan’s body.
Lu Xuan’s mind moved, the Unsullied Jade that had been hanging around his neck transmitted a cool breath, which swept over his body, washing every part of his skin.
The cold resentment instantly dissipated, in the hands of the spirit seed, the blurred gray and black baby became a gray and black thing, as if the previous is Lu Xuan hallucination in general.
“Worthy of being a Fifth Grade Spirit Seed, there is indeed something evil about it.”
Lu Xuan secretly sighed and carefully put the Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed into his storage bag.
The Treasure Exchange Conference continued, and although Lu Xuan had already obtained the Fifth Grade Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed that was the main goal of his trip, he still paid attention to the treasures displayed by the cultivators on the stage to see if he could find the desired Spirit Seed, Demonic Beast Fetal Eggs, and so on.
Cultivators below the stage took turns on the stage, and soon it was Lu Xuan’s turn.
He came onto the stone platform and took out a smoke-like spirit fruit from his storage bag.
“Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit, Third Grade Spirit Fruit, Superior Quality, after taking it, it can speed up the cultivation speed of Illusion Techniques and enhance the power of the techniques.”
“It can also be used to raise demonic beasts with related natural abilities or refine certain rare elixirs.”
“It can be used to exchange for rare spirit seeds of third grade or above, or demonic beast fetus eggs or hatchlings, and if there are fresh and intact demonic beast carcasses of third grade and above, they can also be considered for consideration.”
As soon as Lu Xuan’s words fell, quite a few cultivators practicing illusion arts under the field were moved, the top quality Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit was considered a rare sight.
It was a pity that most of the cultivators did not have spirit species spirit beasts in their hands that could satisfy Lu Xuan, and the spirit species that the few took out were ordinary goods, so Lu Xuan considered it, and ultimately politely declined.
Soon, the free exchange stage, between the cultivators if there is the idea of exchanging the treasures in their hands, but one party is not satisfied with the treasures provided by the other party, then you can pull a third party in, each get what they need.
Lu Xuan stayed quietly in the corner, only thinking about how to safely and quickly return to Sword Gate Town after the conference ended.
The Fifth Grade Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed that he had just obtained was evil at first glance, contradicting his identity as an inner disciple of a prestigious sect, so it was inconvenient to plant it in the sect, and he planned to plant it in the netherworld spirit field in the small courtyard of Sword Gate Town.
“Fellow Daoist.”
A hoarse voice came from his side, Lu Xuan turned his head to look, only to see a black-robed cultivator not far from him, smiling as he looked at him.
“What is it that you, Fellow Daoist, want?”
“I have an extremely freshly preserved demonic beast corpse in my hands, with a grade of fourth grade, and I have the idea of exchanging it for the Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit in your hands.”
“It’s just that, after all, there is a difference in grade between the two, and it’s not very cost-effective to exchange it directly, so now I’ve come over to confer with you, Fellow Daoist, for a moment or two.”
“Fresh fourth grade demonic beast corpse, can you take out and let me see?” Hearing what the black-robed cultivator said, Lu Xuan immediately had a few moments of curiosity.
The black-robed cultivator came to the open area of the hall, and with a flick of his right hand at his waist, a huge scorpion appeared on the ground.
The giant scorpion was more than half a zhang in length, with a hideous form, its slender scorpion tail hanging high and upside down like a sharp sting, on which a deep black light occasionally surfaced, showing its strong toxicity.
Red body, shell looks hard, head left and right sides each have three eyes, even if the life is lost, can also be seen from the giant scorpion six eyes a ferocious intent.
“This is a fourth grade demonic beast, six eyes red iron scorpion, toxicity is extremely strong, shell bone is very hard, six eyes gaze, can slow down the opponent’s speed, grade difference is big case, can even directly fixed.”
Seeing Lu Xuan emerge with a hint of curiosity, the black-robed cultivator hissed his voice and patiently explained.
“This six-eyed Red Iron Scorpion is well-preserved, the scorpion bone can be used to refine a defense artifact, the scorpion tail can also be refined into a poisonous needle artifact, in addition, the essence blood, eye pupil and so on each have their own uses, in terms of value, it’s quite a bit higher than the third-grade Phantom Smoke Luo Fruit that is in the hands of Daolord.”
“Therefore, if you want to exchange it, I hope that you can make up some of the gap between the two.”
Lu Xuan heard this and a hesitant look appeared on his face.
“This demonic beast corpse is indeed extremely well preserved, however, the most essential venom on its body has already been taken away, its value is weaker by an estimated small amount, while the Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit in my hands is of rare superior quality, much more precious than an ordinary third-grade Spirit Fruit, and the gap between the two isn’t that big.”
Lu Xuan pondered for a moment and slowly said.
This fourth grade Six-Eyed Red Iron Scorpion was covered in treasures for him right now, the pupils of its eyes could just be used to cultivate the Hundred Pupil Guile Wood, and getting six of them at once was considered an extra harvest.
The bones could be used as nutrients for the Thorn Bones, and the parts of the corpse that contained scorpion venom could be used to cultivate the Poisonous Shuttlewood, so it had a wide range of uses.
However, he still wanted to get it at the smallest possible cost, so he directly pointed out the flaws of the skeleton and used it to press the price.
“What do you want to exchange for this demonic beast corpse of mine?”
“Third grade Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit, plus four hundred spirit stones, this is the maximum price I can offer, what do you think, fellow Daoist?”
Lu Xuan said, pretending to be unconcerned.
“Alright, deal.”
Although the things Lu Xuan paid for were still a bit far from the expectations of the cultivator’s heart, he desperately needed this Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit, so he nodded his head crisply in agreement.
Lu Xuan put the giant scorpion corpse into his storage bag and waited for the conference to end.
Outside the tall stone mountain, Lu Xuan stepped out from the belly of the mountain, feeling a few if any prying eyes beside him, his body’s spiritual energy ran wildly, his figure transformed into a floating light, disappearing in a few breaths.
After waiting for no one around, the transparent lines on the surface of the Hidden Spirit Cloak that was draped inside surged out, a thin layer of special substance appeared in front of his eyes, and his figure disappeared in place.
A few moments later, Lu Xuan’s body consumed more than half of the spiritual qi, his figure was revealed a few miles away, carefully sensing the surrounding area, confirming that there was no abnormality, and then quickly rushed to Sword Gate Town.
Sword Gate Town, small courtyard.
Lu Xuan opened the Thousand Illusion Cloud Smoke Formation and entered the small courtyard.
As soon as the thick cloud smoke covered the small courtyard, he couldn’t wait to take out the Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed from his storage bag.
“A fifth-grade spirit seed, it’s still the first time I’ve cultivated it.”
He thought inwardly with anticipation.
