“Dinner’s ready!”
Lu Xuan lifted the lid of the pot, and a burst of white steam dispersed instantly. A massive, bright red crab occupied the center of the pot, its aroma permeating through the air.
The Wind Sparrow Fledgling nearby could not help but swallow a large gulp of saliva, fidgeting restlessly.
This was the last one he had been raising of his Iron Claw Crabs, and due to his rich harvest over the past two days, Lu Xuan decided to steam it in celebration.
He untied the Grass Puppet Gray Grass tied to the body of the Iron Claw Crab, deftly breaking open the heavy crab shell.
“Even before death, it was still so defiant…”
He looked at the Iron Claw Crab which still held its pincer up like a large knife even after being cooked, feeling a sense of emotion in his heart. He then tore it off and tossed one each to the Cloud Leopard and the Wind Sparrow Fledgling.
The crab meat was juicy, and the crab roe was fragrant and tender, making them all, man and beasts alike, eat heartily.
“Caw!”
A clear cry sounded as the exceptionally gifted Azure Sky White Luan, who had already visited twice, landed not far away. Its clear, black and white eyes stared eagerly at the crab meat and roe in Lu Xuan’s hand.
“Oh, our future benefactor is here!”
Lu Xuan was secretly thrilled. He tore off a red crab leg and threw it in front of the Mysterious Sky Luan Bird, the descendant of the Beast Protecting the Sect.
The Luan Bird spread its pure white feathers happily, and a Spirit Fruit flew toward Lu Xuan.
The fruit was as jade-like as emerald, with spiritual light circulating and a refreshing fragrance overflowing. At a glance, it was no ordinary Spirit Fruit.
“Is this for me?”
Lu Xuan pointed at the Jade Spiritual Fruit, asking curiously.
The Mysterious Sky Luan bird gently nodded, setting its attention on the crab leg in front of it.
This Iron Claw Crab was raised by Lu Xuan with great attention. It was given an ample amount of food during its growth period, with plenty of opportunities to exercise its claws, making its meat more solid. As a result, when cooked, it was far more delicious than a regular Iron Claw Crab.
Lu Xuan, looking at the jade-like Spirit Fruit in his hand, couldn’t resist picking off a piece and putting it in his mouth.
A taste of sweet and fragrant spread rapidly, flowed throughout his whole body. He keenly sensed his spiritual power increasing slightly after eating the Spirit Fruit.
“This effect… it should be a Grade 3 Spirit Fruit. This Luan Bird took it out to exchange for the Iron Claw Crab meat in my hand.”
Lu Xuan gazed at the Spirit Fruit in his hand for a moment before putting it into his storage bag.
He then took out a piece of Crab Spirit Paste, cut it into several pieces, and distributed one piece to Cloud Leopard, Wind Sparrow Fledgling, and the Luan
Bird.
The Wind Sparrow Fledgling swallowed it whole and smacked its beak, seemingly savoring it. The Cloud Leopard slowly licked the greenish-white Crab Spirit Paste with its delicate tongue.
“The taste of this Crab Spirit Paste is not bad, right?” After the Luan Bird finished eating, Lu Xuan approached it and asked softly.
After two previous encounters, the Mysterious Sky White Luan was not hostile towards Lu Xuan, letting him approach.
“Little White, although I do not know where you come from, we have already established some bonds through food. We’ve developed some friendship.
“I don’t know if there are other demon beasts where you live. If there are, you can bring your companions to play here.”
“I won’t say anything else, but there is no shortage of food in my dwelling. High-quality Spirit Fruits, delicious treats like Crab Spirit Paste, you name it.
“You and your companions can eat to your heart s content.
Lu Xuan said with a smile. After all, he was already hugging the leg of a future high-ranked magical beast, he did not mind hugging a few more, raising them from a young age, and establishing a close connection with them.
And the Azure Sky White Luan, with a potential of Grade 7, surely wouldn’t keep ordinary beasts by its side.
The White Luan Bird tilted its head in thought, then finally nodded in agreement.
It waved its wings at Lu Xuan, and its body instantly turned into countless light particles. The light particles quickly dissipated, not leaving any trace behind.
“Such ability to freely move around through formations is genuinely enviable…”
Lu Xuan sighed and began to pack up the remnants.
He made some brief preparations and then went into Sword Gate Town. The demon beast eyeballs he had especially collected last time hadn’t been fed to the Hundred Pupils Trick Wood yet. If they were to stay in the Life Bag, their vitality might somewhat wane.
Also, he still needed to find several ingredients for concocting the “Transforming Dragon in the Void” medication.
Underneath the giant stone sword.
On Qingshi Square, Lu Xuan noticed that there were many more stalls than usual. He roamed between the stalls with keen interest, checking if there was anything he needed.
What differed from the usual items on the stalls were materials, spiritual medicine, and magic artifacts, which were much more abundant.
Among them, many magic tools still retained an unusual aura, and even had undried bloodstains, which made it evident that they were of dubious origins.
While observing the items on the stalls, he also quietly listened to the low chattering among the cultivators.
Among the cultivators, there were sect disciples, loose cultivators who had come to take a look, and numerous family members and servants of the inner and outer sect disciples who had stayed in the town.
“I heard that half of that small secret land has been explored, and many cultivators have obtained great fortune from it.
“Indeed, grade 2 and 3 spiritual medicine, treasures, etc., that now appear on the market mostly originate from that small new secret land.
“It’s a pity that the Sky Sword Sect only released a limited number of quotas, and we didn’t get a share of it.”
Lu Xuan slowly moved among the stalls. The hottest topic among cultivators was the opening of the new secret land far away from the sect. Many sect disciples, or outside cultivators, benefitted greatly from it.
Some even soared to the sky, rising rapidly within the sect.
Lu Xuan maintained his composure, continuously gathering various information.
From the discussions among the cultivators, he learned that among the cultivators who went to this time’s sect, six or seven outer sect disciples perished inside the secret land.
Furthermore, who knows how many got injured.
“It seems, just as I thought, Foundation Establishment Uncle Master can t always protect everyone. As soon as an accident happens, it carries a fatal risk.
Lu Xuan sighed inwardly.
■■A mortality rate less than half, can be said that the Foundation Establishment Uncle Master has done his best. Coupled with all kinds of opportunities and treasures in the new secret land, that slight risk can almost be ignored.” ■’But dangers still exist. Falling on other cultivators, they might become table chit chat. But once falling on oneself, it could become a catastrophe.
While contemplating, he went through the square, turned a few times in the alley, and arrived in front of the underworld court.
The exterior of the small courtyard showed no traces of other cultivators, Lu Xuan looked around, the formation remained intact, showing no signs of intrusion.
“It appears that those two scared cultivators have been quite diligent.
Lu Xuan opened the formation and entered the small courtyard.
The courtyard didn’t contain many spirit plants, but each one was a rare variety.
Grade 3 Ghost Face Stone Mushroom, Thorn Bone, Fourth Grade Hundred-Pupil Trick Wood, plus the Grade 3 Poison Shuttle Tree planned to be planted in the yard; all were top-quality spirit plants.
“I worry every day in the sect about the safety of the small courtyard’s formation, fearing that the spirit plants inside will be whisked away.
This time, with the Grade 4 Thousand Illusion Cloud Smoke Array that combines illusion array, killing array, and mazed array in one, I can plant them with peace of mind..”
