Chapter 295: Profound Yin Pill
On the vast expanse of the sea.
As more and more sea beasts were jointly dealt with by Song family cultivators, the battle gradually subsided. Except for a few scattered sea beasts still stubbornly resisting, the rest either perished or fled.
The hearts of many cultivators settled as they cleaned up the battlefield.
With a loud splash.
Suddenly, dozens of headless sea beasts emerged from the water, blood rapidly spreading, turning the surrounding waters into a sea of red.
Just as everyone was filled with uncertainty, Lu Xuan emerged unscathed from the water, a Waterwalking Pearl falling from his mouth into his storage pouch.
"I sensed quite a few sea beasts attempting to sneak in from the seabed just now, so I went down to deal with them."
"However, considering the urgency of the situation, I used a bit more force during the attacks. I destroyed all the heads with a certain artifact,"
Lu Xuan casually explained to the elegant cultivator Song Yu, coming up with a reason on the spot.
"Senior Uncle, you've worked hard. Thanks to your presence, we were able to avoid significant losses of Empty Abyss Spirit Fish."
Song Yu hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
"How are the casualties among the Song family cultivators after this sea beast assault?"
"The overall situation is manageable. Under the attack of so many sea beasts, nearly twenty people were injured, with five of them severely wounded, requiring a period of rest and recuperation."
"In addition, one Qi Refinement fifth-layer cultivator accidentally fell in battle. At that time, he and several others were besieged by over ten second-grade sea beasts. One of them suddenly became extremely violent, disregarding its own safety and attacking recklessly. I wasn't able to rescue him in time, resulting in the sacrifice of that clan disciple."
Song Yu said with a lowered head, a hint of guilt in his tone.
At the same time, he felt extremely fortunate.
If not for the sudden assault by hundreds of sea beasts, who came to hunt the Empty Abyss Spirit Fish, casualties would have been ten times greater under normal circumstances, along with substantial losses of Empty Abyss Spirit Fish.
It was precisely because of Lu Xuan, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, suppressing the situation that they were able to repeatedly fend off the sea beast attacks and easily solve the problem of sea beast intrusion.
Thinking of this, Song Yu and the other Song family cultivators looked at Lu Xuan with intense gratitude in their eyes.
"Take care of the injured cultivators, and make sure to arrange things properly for the family of the fallen Song family disciple."
Lu Xuan instructed Song Yu.
"Additionally, handle the disposal of these sea beast corpses properly. We should be able to sell some spirit stones."
"Yes, Senior Uncle Lu! I'll take care of everything as soon as possible."
"At the same time, I'll instruct someone to handle the sea beasts promptly, sell them off for spirit stones, and then deliver your share to you."
Song Yu understood Lu Xuan's intentions and immediately assured him.
With over two hundred sea beast corpses left behind, it wasn't possible to hand over all the spirit stones to Lu Xuan. However, his share would definitely not be missing.
"Good, then I'll be relieved."
Lu Xuan nodded in satisfaction. He had contributed a lot during this sea beast intrusion. It wasn't his style to simply give away these sea beast corpses for nothing.
Not greedy, but he couldn't let himself suffer losses either.
After patrolling the waters to ensure there were no sea beast sightings, Lu Xuan returned to his courtyard.
Although the courtyard's spiritual field didn't have the high-grade formations like the Illusion Mist Formation for protection, Lu Xuan had set up a second-grade formation, which was considered a good defensive measure on the Empty Abyss Island.
He didn't have time to rest as he arrived at the central area of the spiritual field.
The Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood and the remaining two Ghost-Faced Stone Mushrooms were separated into a designated area, isolated from the other normal spiritual plants.
Lu Xuan approached the Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood.
Dozens of eyes opened simultaneously on the aged tree trunk, their eerie pupils coldly staring at Lu Xuan, swimming slowly on the trunk.
Wherever Lu Xuan went, the pupils followed, staring at him relentlessly.
Under the gaze of many strange eyes, Lu Xuan felt a sense of being lost in his mind.
A cool breath came from the Pure Jade around his neck, instantly clearing his mind.
"Wherever you look, be careful not to harass me."
Lu Xuan reprimanded, taking out dozens of fresh sea beast eyeballs from his storage pouch and tossing them towards the aged trunk of the Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood.
"Freshly harvested. Although they're not of high grade, they have a unique taste."
Dozens of nearly transparent slender tentacles shot out from the pupils, one by one nailing the sea beast eyeballs and pulling them to the eerie pupils to suck them greedily.
"A fourth-grade Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood, the first one about to mature, a fourth-grade spiritual plant. I wonder what kind of reward it will produce."
Lu Xuan watched the Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood greedily sucking the fresh sea beast eyeballs, feeling particularly expectant.
He turned his head to the two Ghost-Faced Stone Mushrooms not far away.
Concentrating his mind, he found that the progress bar below one of them was already full.
"Another one has fully matured."
Lu Xuan glanced at the face-like patterns on the top of the plants, carefully plucking it.
A thought flashed through his mind.
【Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom, third-grade spiritual plant, nurtured by Yin spirit resentment, can be used to assist in the cultivation of certain sinister arts, accelerating their cultivation speed.】
He stored this good-quality Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom in his storage pouch, focusing all his attention on the light cluster that had quietly appeared on the ground.
The light cluster flickered slightly, emitting a faintly chilly aura.
With a gentle touch, the white light cluster turned into countless light spots, forming a vaguely eerie face. In an instant, it burrowed into Lu Xuan's body.
A thought flashed through his mind, and Lu Xuan produced a round pill in his hand.
The pill was the size of a pigeon egg, snowy white in color. Holding it in his hand, one could feel a pure and chilly aura emanating from it. The
pill had strange veins that seemed to be constantly wriggling.
Lu Xuan focused his mind on the pill, instantly obtaining detailed information about it.
【Profound Yin Pill, fourth-grade pill, refined from numerous extremely Yin materials, contains a large amount of pure Yin energy. It is a great tonic for many Yin beasts and evil spirits. After consuming it, practitioners of corresponding techniques can greatly enhance their spiritual power.】
"A fourth-grade pill, but unfortunately, it's a bit sinister for me right now."
Lu Xuan thought to himself. He didn't have any Yin beasts around him, and his own spiritual power was pure and balanced. Recklessly consuming this fourth-grade Profound Yin Pill might only have the opposite effect.
"However, for certain sinister cultivators, this Profound Yin Pill is a top-quality pill. I'll have to find an opportunity to sell it and exchange it for some other good stuff."
He thought to himself, looking at the only remaining Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom.
Of the five Ghost-Faced Stone Mushrooms dug up from the secret realm, four were now fully matured.
Perhaps because most of the time they were grown beyond their level, coupled with the rareness of the Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom variety, the rewards from the four white light clusters were all very good.
Two of them produced two fourth-grade artifacts, the Soul-Inducing Lamp, and the Thousand-Faced Phantom, along with the fourth-grade Profound Yin Pill that had just been produced.
The only regret was that the rewards from the Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom, being Yin spiritual plants, also carried strong Yin attributes. Except for the fourth-grade artifact Thousand-Faced Phantom, neither the Soul-Inducing Lamp nor the Profound Yin Pill were suitable for him to use.
