You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 311: Blood-Congealing Yin Insect

"Misfortune picks on the weak ropes, while ill fate seeks out the unfortunate souls..."

Lu Xuan watched the gentle female cultivator, who had completely lost herself, mechanically repeating her actions, and silently sighed within.

The scene before him resonated deeply with nearby wandering cultivators, stirring melancholy within their hearts.

"Friend Zhang has always been diligent in his cultivation, enduring hardships, all for the hope of one day breaking through to the Intermediate Qi cultivation level, to improve his family's livelihood. Yet, he never expected to end up in such dire straits."

"Poor fellow, leaving behind a pair of orphaned children and a widowed mother. How will they survive in this chaotic world?"

"Let's not dwell on that for now. Let's see how this senior of the sect handles this matter. Whether it's the mischief of evil spirits or the Song family framing others, it's us wandering cultivators who will ultimately suffer the consequences."

The group murmured softly among themselves.

Lu Xuan's mind drifted momentarily, as if he could see himself still in the Linyang Fang Market.

With cultivation at the Intermediate Qi level, he had only mastered simple techniques like the Fireball Technique and the Rain of Spirits. Survival on the outskirts of the market was like walking on thin ice for cultivators like him.

For such wandering cultivators, their ability to withstand risks was almost nonexistent.

Establishing new secret realms or seeking great opportunities were things completely out of their reach. However, if they encountered any demonic beasts or evil spirits invading the market, they would be the first to face the danger, like weeds among the crops.

Unfortunately...

There was a hint of pity in Lu Xuan's eyes as he looked at the gentle woman still kneeling on the ground, continuously bowing for help.

"Friend, don't you feel any pain doing this?"

He suddenly spoke, his voice faint and gentle.

"It doesn't hurt..."

The woman raised her head, subconsciously replying.

With a crack, a lump of gray-black flesh fell from the wound on her forehead, rolling on the ground like a piece of dried meat.

At the sight of the dried flesh, the woman's pupils dilated suddenly, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She reached out slowly, intending to touch her own skin, but suddenly, several streaks of blood-red light flashed, piercing through her cheeks, neck, and other places, swiftly attacking Lu Xuan.

With a cold snort, Lu Xuan placed his right hand in front of him. Veins bulged, and there was a faint sound of a dragon's roar. His bones turned into translucent crystal, catching all the incoming blood-red lights!

As soon as the two met, Lu Xuan felt a strong itching sensation on his wrist, as if something was biting his skin, trying to penetrate it.

However, after practicing the "Crystal Bone Forging Technique" and the "Dragon Transformation Technique," and consuming treasures like the "Jade Scale Fruit" and the "Golden Marrow Jade Liquid" to enhance his physical body, Lu Xuan's physical strength had reached a terrifying level. Even if something bit him, it couldn't penetrate his skin in the slightest.

He firmly grasped the blood-vessel-like thing and pulled it out forcefully.

The skin on the woman's cheeks and neck suddenly split open, revealing the strange and sinister things inside to Lu Xuan.

The moment he arrived at the scene, the immaculate jade hanging on Lu Xuan's neck had been warning him all along. When he approached the corpse, a chilling sensation spread over him, as if trying to freeze his body.

The gentle woman had been lying on the corpse all along, so Lu Xuan paid extra attention to her every move. When the blood-red lights attacked, he reacted immediately.

The moment Lu Xuan pulled out the sinister object from her body, the woman felt like she had lost a lot within her body in an instant, and a strong sense of desiccation spread throughout her body.

She looked at her husband's corpse on the ground, a hint of relief flashed in her eyes, and she lay down slowly, cuddling tightly.

In Lu Xuan's hand, a strange blood worm was trying various methods to attack him.

The blood worm seemed to be twisted from many tiny blood vessels, exuding a chilling Yin aura when held in hand. It was overall crimson, with two pairs of faint red wings and faint blood flowers blooming on the surface.

At the forefront, tiny blood vessels condensed into a bloody cavity, constantly roaring towards Lu Xuan. At the end, many blood vessels reluctantly drilled out of the woman's body, resembling blood-red tiny tentacles, constantly waving in the air.

The tentacles kept stretching, trying to envelop Lu Xuan.

A pure white talisman quietly slipped out of Lu Xuan's sleeve, with a hint of white light appearing on its surface, emitting a strong and pure sacred aura. It was a third-grade Purifying Talisman, which had powerful purification capabilities against evil spirits, naturally restraining sinister things.

As the pure white light swept across, the speed of the tentacle-like blood vessels slowed down by half, and the blood-red light inside dimmed significantly.

A drop of demonic beast blood flew out from Lu Xuan's storage bag and shot into the front cavity of the blood worm.

Concentrating his mind on the sinister blood worm, Lu Xuan immediately sensed detailed information about it.

[Blood-Congealing Yin Insect: A sinister worm nurtured by the blood of hundreds of demonic beasts. It has a strong sense of blood and, if unable to feed on blood for a long time, will become manic.]

[It hides in the target's blood and remains dormant. When stimulated, it will reveal itself. After completely absorbing the target's blood, it will automatically leave the target. Without enough blood reserves, it will seek new targets.]

[Blood-Congealing Yin Insects are a common means for evil cultivators practicing blood cultivation techniques to obtain essence blood.]

"So, that's the story."

Lu Xuan firmly grasped the blood-congealing Yin insect with his crystal-like hand bones, looking at the wandering cultivator couple who had encountered unexpected disasters on the ground, feeling an inexplicable anger rising in his heart.

With his other hand, he grabbed the remaining parts of the blood worm and pulled hard.

Under his violent force, the blood-congealing Yin insect was torn into pieces, falling to the ground with a large amount of blood spurting out, pouring into the corpse of the wandering cultivator.

Lu Xuan's spiritual power surged, the light of the Purifying Talisman flourishing, covering a large area. The shattered blood worms, under the holy and pure light, continued to shrink, turning into black-red dried blood vessels.

From the sudden emergence of sinister blood worms from the woman's body to Lu Xuan's intervention, everything happened too quickly, so Song Yun and others only reacted now.

"Elder Lu!"

Song Yun, holding a flying sword in one hand and a dispelling talisman in the other, hurriedly rushed to Lu Xuan's side.

"It's all right, it's been completely resolved."

"The female cultivator also hid the same sinister blood worms in her body, just deeper, so you couldn't detect them."

Lu Xuan explained to Song Yun and the others.

"I didn't expect the movements of the evil spirits to be so elusive. Even at such close range,

it's hard to detect."

Song Yun said with lingering fear. If it weren't for Lu Xuan's appearance, it would have been difficult for the Song family's group to notice the anomaly inside the woman's body.

"What about these wandering cultivators?"

The patrol team from the Song family surrounded several wandering cultivators who looked panicked.

"Ao..."

A slight low roar sounded, and the Cloud-Stepping Lynx appeared silently on the ground. Guided by Lu Xuan, its indifferent emerald eyes stared at the wandering cultivators.

"We haven't found any abnormalities. Let them go."

The Cloud-Stepping Lynx had already reached the first-rank demonic beast stage and could keenly perceive the traces of evil spirits. After taking the Moonlit Grass, its bloodline had been promoted, enhancing its abilities significantly.

Coupled with the immaculate jade on Lu Xuan's neck, under the dual measures, they had not detected any signs of evil spirits. Lu Xuan ordered the Song family cultivators.

"Thank you, Senior! Thank you, Senior!"

The several wandering cultivators felt relieved, their knees weakened, and they couldn't help but kneel down, bowing their heads repeatedly in gratitude.

"..."

Lu Xuan saw this familiar scene and felt an urge to regret his decision.
