Chapter 37: Sneaky Evil Sneaks
Chapter 37 – Creepy Level Evil Sneak
There were already thirteen mature Spirit Glow Grasses, so I was afraid that if they were left any longer, they would lose their vitality and affect their quality.
Lu Xuan intended to deliver these thirteen plants to the Hundred Herb Hall, and in the meantime, he would go to the bazaar to see if there were any suitable Spirit Seeds or Young Beasts.
“Little fellow, do you want to go out with me?”
Before Lu Xuan’s words fell, he felt a slight sinking sensation on his right shoulder, and when he inclined his head, the four white cloud-like paws of the Biyou Treading Clouds Lynx were gently stepping on his shoulder.
A pair of turquoise eye pupils were not squinting, coldly looking ahead, seemingly not wanting to pay attention to Lu Xuan who had turned his head.
Lu Xuan’s mind converged on its body, instantly understanding the joyous leap of joy within the lynx cub’s heart.
Seeing this, he lightly laughed and instructed the Grass Puppet, which had already returned to normal, to take care of the Spirit Fields more often, and then brought the Treading Cloud Lynx to the bazaar.
In the bazaar, the number of loose cultivators was obviously a lot more than before.
The many materials, spirit medicines, etc. brought back from the new secret realm attracted many cultivators into the bazaar.
Some novelties appeared on the stalls, and Lu Xuan slowly wandered around to see if there was anything he liked.
Suddenly, ten feet ahead, a few cultivators gathered together caught his attention.
The cultivators wore standardized vestments, and Lu Xuan could tell at a glance that they were the patrol guards in the Lin Yang Square Market.
Several Qi Practitioner Middle Stage patrolling guards were forming a circle with an ebony rope, with quite a few odd talismans affixed to the rope, and there was a burnt area in the circled open space.
Lu Xuan saw one of the guards dropping an Evil Dispelling Talisman into the circle, the pure white light flashed by, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility.
When the white light appeared, a few others were like enemies, staring at the empty space, only when the white light slowly disappeared did a few people relax slightly.
With curiosity, Lu Xuan leaned closer to the crowd and was soon informed.
“These few patrollers are quite conscientious, that alienated cultivator has been dead for a day, and they are still guarding there in case an evil spirit appears.”
“It can’t be helped, the horrors of evil spirits are known to all, fear not ten thousand but fear the unexpected.”
“The Northern District has already had at least ten cultivators die recently, either contaminated by evil spirits and alienated into monsters, or killed by alienated monsters.”
“I don’t know if you guys have heard of a piece of news in the Square Market. It is said that this time, the large number of evil spirits appearing in the marketplace has a lot to do with the Wang family.”
“Rumor has it that they were breaking open a new formation and smashed the lair of a Creepy Level Evil Sneak in the secret realm, and were followed all the way here by that Evil Sneak.”
“Be careful what you say, this is not something that a few of us Qi Practitioner low level casual cultivators can casually discuss, lest trouble comes out of our mouths.”
“All we can do is how can we survive this evil sneak invasion.”
The chatter gradually subsided and slowly began to shift to a new topic.
“Cultivator alienation and death, trick level evil spirit invasion?”
Lu Xuan caught two keywords in a blur.
“I didn’t expect so many things to happen just because I didn’t go out for a few days.”
“Creepy Level Evil Sneak ……”
He felt a trace of heaviness in his heart.
The division of Evil Sneak grades was different from demonic beasts, and was divided into four grades, as Fey Grade, Guile Grade, Scourge Grade, and Calamity Grade.
The foreign level evil spirits have been born with strange and weird abilities, equivalent to qi cultivators, and the weird level evil spirits have strange and unpredictable abilities, and their strength is generally equivalent to foundation cultivators.
Although the Wang family and other families and forces in the market were in front of them, if an ordinary practitioner was affected in the slightest, it would be the result of his death.
Lu Xuan paid a little attention, affected by this rumor, the prices of talismans such as the Evil Dispelling Talisman, Evil Warding Talisman and other talismans in the bazaar had risen a lot.
“Take a quick stroll in the bazaar, if not, go to the Hundred Herb Hall as fast as you can, dispose of these ten or so Spirit Glow Grasses, and then go home immediately.” Lu Xuan made a decision in his mind, the marketplace was getting more and more restless and unsafe, he planned to stay in the courtyard as much as possible and keep his spirit plants and spirit pets as his companions.
Just as he quickened his pace, Lu Xuan suddenly felt the Treading Cloud Lynx on his shoulder aggravate a few points at once.
He inclined his head and saw the lynx cub glaring coldly ahead, that strange low roar coming out of its mouth.
“The original sound is out, did you find something?”
Lu Xuan’s pace slowed down when he saw the lynx being different.
The posture of the lynx next to him reminded Lu Xuan that it stayed at the edge of the Spirit Spring Pool and ambushed the Red Bearded Carp, and when this action appeared, it meant that the Treading Clouds Lynx had entered an offensive state.
“That pair of foreign pupils of the lynx seems to be able to see things that are normally hard to detect.”
Lu Xuan thought about the information he had obtained about the Biyou Treading Cloud Lynx when he started raising it.
Thinking of this, he was creeped out as the Split Silver Blade at his waist emitted a slight buzzing sound, and the second-grade Sword Qi Ten Thousand Talisman quietly slipped down to the mouth of his sleeve.
“According to my normal behavior, as well as the direction that the Cloud Treading Lynx is gazing at, the most likely place for something strange to appear is up ahead.”
His expression remained unchanged as he moved naturally and stopped at the nearest stall, pointing at a random item and asking the stall owner softly for the price.
His actual body was in a state of tautness, his attention fully focused on the surrounding cultivators.
“Too expensive, I don’t want it.”
He ignored what the stall owner had said, leaving a casual sentence, and was about to return the way he came.
Suddenly, two or three feet ahead of him, a loose cultivator stifled a grunt, large and small cracks instantly appeared on his face and neck, countless red flesh buds flew out from the cracks and grew against the wind, instantly becoming a blood-red tentacle, crazily attacking the surrounding cultivators.
“Ah!”
A cultivator near him couldn’t react fast enough, and his head was penetrated by the blood red tentacles.
As early as the moment the flesh buds appeared, Lu Xuan hurriedly retreated, with a Swiftness Talisman attached to each of his left and right legs, swift as the wind, drifting to the rear.
The other cultivators around him used all their means, and for a while, spells, magic weapons, and talismans flew everywhere.
The blood red tentacles grew extremely fast, and had a tendency to cover one to twenty feet around.
Lu Xuan scurried out like an arrow, leaving several cultivators behind, when suddenly, a high earth wall suddenly appeared in front of him and several cultivators, blocking Lu Xuan’s figure.
The moment the earth wall appeared, Lu Xuan noticed that a famous cultivator in front of him had a fierce smile on his face.
“Bunch of fools, it’s fine if I can’t outrun the evil spirits, as long as I run faster than you guys.”
The casual cultivator who had made the Earth Wall Talisman was smug in his heart, feeling incomparably resourceful.
Lu Xuan flew around the earth wall, the loose cultivator had already run out quite a large distance with these few breaths of blockage.
Being used as a shield like this himself, Lu Xuan was incomparably annoyed in his heart, running his spiritual energy, the Gengjin Sword Technique of the Grand Completion Realm instantly sent out and knew, a golden stream of light in the chaos, accurately struck the casual cultivator’s leg, blood immediately flowed like a stream, a huge hole appeared in his calf.
The casual cultivator wailed in pain, and couldn’t help but stop under the pain.
Lu Xuan swept past him expressionlessly.
“Isn’t it a competition of who can run faster? You can’t even run if I let you.”
Glancing back, there were several blood-red tentacles like pythons that attacked the loose cultivator lying on the ground.
