There are already thirteen mature fireflies. If we put them down any longer, they may lose their vitality and affect their quality.
Lu Xuan planned to deliver these thirteen plants to Baicaotang, and also went to the market to see if there were any suitable spiritual seeds and cubs.
“Little guy, do you want to go out with me?”
Before Lu Xuan finished speaking, he felt a slight sinking feeling on his right shoulder. He turned his head and saw the four white cloud-like paws of the blue-eyed cloud-stepping lynx gently stepping on his shoulder.
A pair of green eyes stared straight ahead, looking coldly ahead, as if they didn’t want to pay attention to Lu Xuan, who turned his head.
Lu Xuan’s mind focused on its body, and he instantly understood the joy in the lynx cub’s heart.
Not surprised, he chuckled lightly, told the Grass Puppet who had returned to normal to take care of the spiritual field, and then brought the Cloud-Stepping Lynx to the market.
In the market, the number of casual cultivators was obviously much greater than before.
The many materials and elixirs brought back from the new secret realm attracted many monks to the market.
Some novelties appeared on the stall, and Lu Xuan slowly wandered around to see if there was anything he liked.
Suddenly, ten feet away in front, several monks gathered together caught his attention.
The monk was wearing a standard robe, and Lu Xuan could tell at a glance that he was a patrolman in Linyangfang City.
Several middle-level Qi-training guards formed a circle with a black rope. There were many strange talismans attached to the rope. There was a burnt area in the circled open space.
Lu Xuan saw a patrolman drop an evil-dispelling talisman into the circle, and pure white light flashed through, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility.
When the white light appeared, several other people stared at the open space as if facing a formidable enemy. Only when the white light slowly disappeared did they relax slightly.
With curiosity, Lu Xuan moved closer to the crowd and quickly learned some information.
“These patrols are doing their duty. The alienated monk has been dead for a day, but they are still guarding there to prevent evil spirits from appearing.”
“There is nothing we can do. Everyone knows how terrible the evil spirits are. If you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst.”
“At least ten monks have died in the North District recently. They were either invaded and contaminated by evil spirits, transformed into monsters, or killed by alienated monsters.”
“I don’t know if you have heard of the news. It is said that there are a large number of evil spirits appearing in the city this time, and it has a lot to do with the Wang family.”
“It is rumored that they are breaking through a new formation and have created a nest of evil spirit in the secret realm, and the evil spirit has followed them all the way.”
“Be careful with what you say. This is not something that we low-level Qi practitioners can discuss casually, lest disaster comes from our mouths.”
“All we can do is how to survive this evil invasion.”
The discussion gradually subsided and slowly began to shift to new topics.
“The monk died due to alienation and was invaded by evil spirits?”
Lu Xuan vaguely caught two keywords.
“I didn’t expect that so many things would happen after I didn’t go out for a few days.”
“The strange and evil spirits…”
He felt a little heavy in his heart.
The classification of evil spirit levels is different from that of monsters. They are divided into four levels: alien level, trick level, calamity level, and disaster level.
The strange-level evil spirit has developed strange and weird abilities, which is equivalent to a Qi-training monk. The strange-level evil spirit has weird and unpredictable abilities, and its strength is generally equivalent to that of a foundation-building monk.
Although the Wang family and other families and forces in Fang City are blocking the way, if ordinary cultivators are affected to the slightest extent, it will be the result of death and Taoism disappearing.
Lu Xuan paid a little attention. Affected by this rumor, the prices of talismans such as evil-dispelling talismans and evil-repelling talismans in the market increased a lot.
“Take a quick stroll in the market. If you don’t have any, go to Baicaotang as soon as possible to deal with these ten or so fireflies and go home immediately.”
As soon as he quickened his pace, Lu Xuan suddenly felt the cloud-walking lynx on his shoulders getting a little heavier.
He turned his head and saw the lynx cub staring coldly ahead, making that weird low growl.
“The original sound has come out. Did you find something?”
Lu Xuan slowed down when he saw the lynx acting strangely.
The posture of the lynx next to him reminded Lu Xuan that it stayed at the edge of the Lingquan Pond to ambush the red-bearded carp. This movement meant that the cloud-walking lynx entered an offensive state.
“Lynx’s pair of strange eyes seem to be able to see things that are usually difficult to detect.”
Lu Xuan thought of the information he had obtained about the blue-eyed cloud-walking lynx when he started raising it.
Thinking of this, he was horrified. The cracked silver blade at his waist made a slight buzzing sound, and the second-grade Sword Qi Ten Thousand Talisman quietly slid down to his sleeve.
“According to my normal behavior and the direction in which the cloud-walking lynx is looking, the most likely place for something strange to happen is in front of me.”
His expression remained unchanged, and he stopped at the nearest stall naturally. He pointed at a piece of goods and asked the stall owner softly for the price.
The actual body is in a tense state, and the focus is entirely on the surrounding monks.
“It’s too expensive, I don’t want it.”
He ignored what the stall owner said and left a casual sentence before returning to the original route.
Suddenly, two or three feet in front of him, a casual cultivator groaned, and large and small cracks instantly appeared on his face and neck. Countless red flesh shoots shot out from the cracks quickly, growing in the wind, and instantly turned into blood-red tentacles, crazy. Attack the surrounding monks.
“ah!”
A monk near him was unable to react in time, and his head was penetrated by a blood-red tentacle.
As early as the moment when the flesh sprout appeared, Lu Xuan hurriedly retreated, with a Swift Talisman attached to each of his left and right legs, as fast as the wind, floating behind him.
The other monks around him used all their methods, and for a while, spells, magic weapons, and talismans were flying everywhere.
The blood-red tentacles grew extremely fast and tended to cover the surrounding area for ten to twenty feet.
Lu Xuan shot out like a sharp arrow, leaving several monks behind him. Suddenly, a high earth wall suddenly appeared in front of him and several monks, blocking Lu Xuan and the others.
The moment the earthen wall appeared, Lu Xuan noticed a sinister smile on the face of a monk in front of him.
“A bunch of fools, I can’t outrun Xie Sui. It’s okay. I just need to run faster than you.”
The casual cultivator who unearthed the wall talisman felt proud and felt that he was extremely resourceful.
Lu Xuan quickly walked around the earthen wall, and with just a few breaths, the casual cultivator had already run a considerable distance away.
Being used as a shield like this, Lu Xuan was extremely annoyed. Using his spiritual power, he used the Gengjin Sword Jue of Dacheng Realm to activate instantly. A golden stream of light hit the casual cultivator’s leg accurately in the chaos, and blood suddenly flowed out. , a huge hole appeared in his calf.
The casual cultivator wailed in pain and couldn’t help but stop in pain.
Lu Xuan passed by him expressionlessly.
“Aren’t you trying to compete with who else can run faster? You can’t run even if I ask you to.”
Looking back, he saw several blood-red tentacles attacking the casual cultivator lying on the ground like a giant python.
