Chapter 501 – The Seed of the Five Viscera (Three More Requests for Monthly Tickets!)
“I didn’t expect to pick up a big leak on the first day of the Treasure Fair, obtaining a piece of the blood and flesh of a Scourge-level Evil Sneak with JieDan strength for more than 3,000 Spirit Stones.”
Lu Xuan let out a dark sigh of emotion in his heart as he received the greenish-black blood flesh that kept on sprouting flesh buds, put it into a jade box, sealed it heavily with a talisman, and put it into his storage bag.
Scourge level evil spirits, as the name suggests, had a powerful destructive power that could plague one side of the cultivation world, and their flesh and blood had an extremely strong contaminating nature, so the slightest mishap would trigger a scourge, so there was no way for Lu Xuan to not be careful and prudent.
However, he didn’t buy it for his own use, but mainly to feed the Calamity Grade Flesh Spirit God that was still in gestation.
Evil spirits eat evil spirits, even if this piece of flesh and blood had a powerful contaminating nature, they could at least act as a mutual counterbalance to each other.
With luck, it might be a great tonic for the Flesh Spirit God.
If it really wasn’t possible, this piece of evil spirit’s blood and flesh would be crushed into pieces and incorporated into the ghostly mud flesh that shared a few similarities, increasing the fertility and nutrients of the spiritual soil.
Lu Xuan had a proper arrangement in his heart for this piece of accidentally harvested Scourge-level Evil Sneaky Flesh, and with the idea of picking up the pieces, he continued to take a look here and there among the stalls.
“This is a Spirit Seed? Does Your Excellency think I’m blind?”
Suddenly, a mellow voice came from not far ahead, attracting Lu Xuan’s attention.
He increased his speed and came to the direction where the voice came from.
A small stall was set up with more than a dozen strange and weird things, and the stall owner was a slim cultivator whose body was covered by a layer of black mist, making it impossible to see.
In front of the stall, stood a five big and thick cultivator, holding a thing in his hand, his eyes full of skepticism.
Lu Xuan was attracted to the thing in the cultivator’s hand at first glance.
A palm-sized blood-colored spirit seed, vaguely visible inside with a foreign object shaped like five organs squeezed together, the dry wrinkled organs slightly stretching and expanding, with a striped road on the surface, like blood vessels that hooked the organs together.
“This is indeed a spirit seed.”
The skinny stall owner said coldly, his tone had a bit of grimness in it that Lu Xuan, who was quietly observing from the side, could clearly feel.
“Then tell me what is the origin of this Spirit Seed?”
The lanky cultivator pursued.
“I want to be clear and still bring it over to sell at the lower levels?”
The skinny stall owner snorted a yin-yang sentence and took back the blood-colored spirit seed, ignoring the lanky cultivator who stormed out.
The lanky cultivator felt a line of sight fall on him, although extremely angry, but also still retained a point of clarity, knowing that causing trouble in the Multi-Treasure Building would most likely be severely punished, and only had to leave resentfully.
“This fellow Daoist, can you show me this object?”
Lu Xuan waited for him to leave, pretending to pass by the stall without a second thought, and pointed at the blood-colored spirit seed on top.
“Please help yourself.”
The skinny stall owner said softly and did not move.
“It is indeed a Spirit Seed, and looking at this appearance, in all likelihood, it is still an Evil Spirit Plant.”
Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense seeped into it, feeling the rich vitality within the Spirit Seed, and lamented.
He had dealt with spirit plants for so many times, and had learned the knowledge of spirit plants painstakingly in the Tibetan scripture pavilion, so he still had this ability to distinguish between them.
Of course, it was limited to knowing that this was a spirit seed, the specific grade and variety were unknown.
“I have some interest in this spirit seed? I wonder how much you are asking for it?”
Lu Xuan asked tentatively.
“The Spirit Seed includes everything on the stall, only for exchange and not for sale.”
The stall owner said coldly.
Lu Xuan looked up, and a layer if spiritual light surfaced on the surface of his pupils at some point.
Under the prying eyes of his Delusion Breaking Pupil Technique, the black mist on the surface of the stall owner’s body was reduced to nothing, and he was able to see his true colors at a glance.
This skinny stall owner is made up of a dark Yin qi, which does not look too solid, and from time to time a trace of it escapes and blends into the black fog on the surface.
This person was actually a ghost cultivator formed by a spirit body! In the cultivation world, there are some cultivators whose bodies are damaged and only souls are left, if there are treasures that condense the spirit body around them, or if there are corresponding techniques, then they will switch to the ghost path, thus retaining a sliver of the possibility of longevity.
“I wonder what treasures you want to exchange for?”
Lu Xuan’s expression remained unchanged as he asked out loud.
“Pills or treasures that contain a large amount of pure Yin Qi are fine.”
The stall owner whispered back.
“Pills of pure Yin Qi?”
Lu Xuan instantly thought of the two Xuan Yin Pills in his hand, which came from the light clusters opened out by the Ghost Face Stone Mushroom, which could be used to feed Yin Beasts and Evil Sneaks, as well as boosting the Spiritual Energy in the body of the Ghost Cultivator, which was just right for the requirements of this stall owner in front of him.
“How about this fourth-grade Xuan Yin Dan in exchange for your spiritual seed?”
Lu Xuan took out a Mori White Dan and asked with a smile.
The elixir was filled with a pure Yin cold aura, causing the black mist on the skinny stall owner’s body to change slightly.
“Xuan Yin Dan, yes.”
“But this Spirit Seed grade of mine is most likely of the fifth grade, and its value is very different from a fourth grade elixir, so if Your Excellency wants to trade for it, you will have to add another one.”
“Really? Then why don’t we call it a day?”
Lu Xuan’s hand curled up and retrieved the Xuan Yin Dan.
He had long since seen through that this stall owner in front of him was in dire need of pills to condense Yin Qi, so he was in no hurry and used retreat as a means of advancement.
“Wait.”
“Fellow Daoist, this Xuan Yin Dan of yours is indeed more than a step behind, am I right?”
The skinny stall owner stayed Lu Xuan, his tone had a few moments of urgency if nothing else.
“I don’t think so underneath.”
“This is indeed a Spirit Seed, and the vitality in its body is relatively dense and pure, but the exact grade is not known.”
“Fifth-grade is indeed possible, but certain fourth-grade spirit seeds with vigorous vitality may also be possible.”
“The variety is also nothing, I don’t know the specialties of the spirit plant itself, I don’t know how to cultivate it, and I don’t know what it will do when it matures.”
“I’ll have to go through risk after risk if I get this Spirit Seed, and with the fact that the Spirit Seed itself is worth less than the elixir, being able to exchange it for this Fourth Grade Xuan Yin Dan of mine is already considered very good.”
Lu Xuan said in a relaxed tone, in his heart, although he extremely wanted this odd Spirit Seed, on the surface, he didn’t show the slightest bit of it, and even had a few moments of contempt.
“What does Your Excellency think of that one Xuan Yin Dan, plus one thousand lower grade spirit stones?”
The thin cultivator was silent for a while and finally said.
“Good, then.”
Lu Xuan took out another thousand Spirit Stones and handed them to the thin stall owner along with the Xuan Yin Dan.
“Do you need anything else, fellow Daoist? This is …….”
The stall owner said enthusiastically as he introduced the treasures in his stall to Lu Xuan.
“No need, thank you for your kindness, Fellow Daoist.”
Lu Xuan politely refused.
When he had left the stall some distance away, he couldn’t restrain himself recently, and a trace of an eager smile surfaced.
He didn’t expect that the Xuan Yin Dan opened by a light cluster would bring him such a big surprise!
“Compared to the little bit of Spirit Stones lost, the gain is unknown how much greater.”
His spiritual sense seeped into the storage bag and looked at it a few times, his heart growing more and more satisfied and joyful.
