Chapter 93 – Turn into ashes and you won’t recognize it.
Chapter 93: Turned into Ashes and Not Recognized
“How could I be an evil spirit, look, this is Wang Ruhai’s head, and the weird skin on his body, all ambushed under my sword.”
Li Jianfeng was carrying a bloody head in his hand, as well as a soft leather bag.
One end of the leather bag was hanging down, and Wang Ruhai’s facial features could be vaguely seen.
“Fellow Daoist Li didn’t say so earlier, making me suspect wildly and almost defaming fellow Daoist.”
“As for the secret code, it’s actually just that there is no secret code, if you, Taoist friend, really said it, it would be a ghost instead.”
Lu Xuan put away the silver-white sword blade in his hand and said with a smile.
“Fellow Daoist Lu is truly witty.”
The centipede-shaped scar on Li Jianfeng’s face couldn’t help but shake a few times.
The two of them put aside the suspicions and worries in their hearts and walked closer and closer.
When they were less than a foot away, Lu Xuan flung his right hand’s two fingers in an extremely stealthy manner.
Immediately, a long, thin, red needle flew out at a speed indiscernible to the naked eye, entering Li Jianfeng’s left temple, running through his entire head, and flying out of his right temple.
A golden yellow sword light followed closely behind, shooting into Li Jianfeng’s heart, and a bowl-sized hole immediately appeared in his chest.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, what do you mean by this?”
Blood sprayed out from the hole in his chest, red and white brain marrow flowed out from time to time from both sides of his temples, Li Jianfeng ignored it and showed a stern face as he questioned Lu Xuan.
“To suffer such a serious injury without much effect, you are indeed not Fellow Daoist Li Jianfeng!”
Lu Xuan withdrew the red thread needle, his expression grave.
“Hahaha, who else could I be if not Li Jianfeng?!”
“Good, Li Jianfeng you don’t recognize, so do you recognize this one?”
Li Jianfeng reached out and tore his hand from top to bottom with force, a set of skin peeled off, revealing a new face inside.
It was none other than one of the Spiritual Plantsmiths who had come with Lu Xuan.
“And this one?”
“Does this one always recognize?”
A sheet of pale skin peeled off and floated around Jianfeng Li, and Lu Xuan saw quite a few familiar faces in it, including He Ping from the Hundred Herb Hall.
His face was as grim as water, three second grade Sword Qi Ten Thousand Talismans quietly slipped between his palms, and the Sundown Thunder Sword Pill in his dantian expanded and contracted rapidly, transforming the spiritual energy in his body into sword auras.
The last ten leather bags floated on the ground, swinging drastically as they were blown by the night wind.
“Come, take off this skin bag on you and be their companion!”
‘Li Jianfeng’, or the parasitic skin bag no longer had an intact area on its body, laughing recklessly, the last ten skin bags formed a half circle and attacked Lu Xuan at extreme speed.
“Hmph!”
Lu Xuan coldly snorted, three Second Grade Sword Qi Ten Thousand Talismans, the sword line patterns on the talismans lit up at the same time, countless sword qi surged out from the talismans, sweeping in a fan shape, piercing through the last ten skin pouches, and a piece of shattered skin fell to the ground.
“Spoiling my skin pouch, you seek death, I’m going to peel off this skin of yours alive!”
The skin pouches that had been collected for a period of time were violently destroyed by Lu Xuan in this manner, and the parasitic skin pouches became furious.
A thin skin pouch that was so pale that it was almost transparent flew out from Li Jianfeng’s body, and on the skin pouch there were layers and layers of human-faced silhouettes that wailed noiselessly, taking in the hearts of the people.
Lu Xuan’s mind was affected by the countless human face silhouettes, his movements involuntarily paused for a split second, the transparent leather bag seized this fleeting opportunity and pounced in front of Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan’s chest, as the transparent leather bag flew close, the Unsullied Jade quietly lit up, a layer of clear misty spiritual light swept through, pushing the transparent leather bag aside, Lu Xuan’s body around the pure and holy, clear and bright, as if it could block any filth.
Lu Xuan took a deep breath, the body’s essence blood quickly burned, instantly, mouth orifices a small blood red arrow shot out, with the most masculine and strong rich blood qi, struck on the unsteady foothold of the transparent leather bag.
When the two touched each other, a wisp of blood-colored flame burned silently, scorching the parasitic leather bag.
This blood-colored flame seems to be extremely restrained Yin soul resentment, skin bag on the layers and layers of human face silhouette into a wisp of green smoke, dissipated in the air.
An egg-sized, countless fine sword qi composed of sword pills shot out of Lu Xuan’s mouth without a sound.
The sword pill gulped with sword awns, and inside, black wind swirled furiously and thunder emerged.
Endless deep black sword awns split out from the sword pill, forming a hurricane of sword qi, with thunder flashing inside, rushing towards the host body’s skin sac with a blatantly irresistible momentum.
Under the vast thousands of sword awns, the parasitic skin sac seemed to be fixed by the sword intent, and watched as countless sword awns rushed to strangle themselves.
A strip, a wisp of translucent skin fragments fell to the ground, no longer able to put together any humanoid.
Lu Xuan’s chest, since the appearance of Li Jianfeng, has been emitting a cold coldness of the Immaculate Jade finally returned to normal, the coldness dissipated, only a light coolness soaked into the skin, so that his sanity is more clear.
He also then learned that this foreign level’s parasitic skin had been successfully exterminated by himself.
Out of caution, he quickly took out several Evil Dispelling Talismans from his storage bag, and a layer of pure spiritual light swept across the entire battle area, ensuring that not a single trace of evil aura was left behind.
With a movement of his spiritual energy, a head-sized reddish fireball landed on the pieces of the leather pouches, quickly burning all of them into countless black ashes.
“I knew you before when you changed, but after you turned into ash, I won’t recognize you.”
Lu Xuan sighed, then came to Li Jianfeng after removing the skin pouches, removed the storage pouch on his waist, swept it with the Evil Dispelling Talisman, burned Li Jianfeng’s corpse into black ash, packed it in a jade bottle, and buried it under a crooked-necked tree.
At this point, this foreign level’s parasitic skin was completely cleaned up.
“The outside world is too dangerous, just coming out to help the Wang family pick and process spiritual plants, I stumbled upon an evil spirit invasion incident.”
“It’s a good thing that I had a scare and obtained five Ghostface Stone Mushrooms, well, there’s also Li Jianfeng’s storage bag being able to slightly appease my wounded heart.”
Lu Xuan took out a Blood Pill and swallowed it into his stomach, replenishing the blood qi in his body.
The Sundown Thunder Sword Pill was back inside the dantian, and just now, just in case the evil spirit was difficult to exterminate, Lu Xuan poured out almost all of the sword aura that had been contained in the Sword Pill for this period of time.
It had to be properly nourished for a while longer before the next pouring of the pill.
After swallowing the Blood Pill, his pale face gained a few more shades of blood, and after recognizing the direction, he retraced his steps towards the outer perimeter of the secret world.
“After the Longbeard Grass Camp was so messed up by the evil spirits, it is estimated that the remaining living Spirit Plant Masters will not go back.”
“Just in case there’s an unforeseen problem, it’s better for myself to return to the workshop as early as possible.”
“I also don’t know how well the Grass Puppet Care is looking after it, the four Iron Cheetah Crab Young Beasts should still be able to handle it, right?”
Lu Xuan hurriedly sped along while missing the spirit plants and spirit beasts in the spirit field.
Halfway there, he opened the storage bag that he had gotten from Li Jianfeng and found dozens of Dragon Beard Grasses that had been preliminarily processed, only that he didn’t know how many normal spirit plants were in them.
There were also some pills, two second-grade magic artifacts, tens of talismans, and over two hundred spirit stones.
There was no trace of the thick large sword, and as for the storage bags on the other cultivators, it was unknown how this parasitic skin bag was handled at the time, Lu Xuan didn’t find it.
However, having these was also an unexpected blessing, he didn’t think of going back to look for the storage bag again, at the moment, all he wanted to do was to leave the secret realm and return to the courtyard.
