Chapter 48 - When the Pine Nuts Ripen

  In the center of Linyangfang City.

  In the dim room, seven or eight babies were crawling around.

  The babies were abnormally blue-black, with black gas seeping out of their bodies from time to time. They had small limbs, sharp teeth, and bulging pupils, giving people a ferocious feeling.

  They were agile and swift, which was completely inconsistent with their body shape. Occasionally, when they bumped into each other, they would bite each other fiercely, and from time to time, they would make resentful cries when bitten to the painful parts, which made people dizzy.

  In the corner of the room, two beautiful girls sat quietly, without saying a word, with a smile on their faces, and their expressions revealed a maternal glow.

  The abdomens of the two were bulging high, like a big ball. One of them had a huge crack in her belly, and a bulging gray-white eyeball was staring at the outside world through the crack, as if it would crawl out of the belly at any time.

  "Who? Who killed my beloved evil infant?"

  On the big bed made of ice, a monk sat up straight, surrounded by a thick resentment. From time to time, a blurry face flew out of the resentment, wailing silently in pain. The

  seven or eight babies who were fighting and biting in the room suddenly became quiet, as quiet as cicadas, as if they were very afraid of this person.

  The two girls in the corner still kept smiling, motionless, and the gray-white eyeballs in the cracks of their abdomens slowly retreated into the depths.

  "In this way, my chances of condensing the evil infant pill will be reduced by one point. Damn it."

  The resentment in the monk continued to rise, just like the anger in his heart.

  He has been in the perfect stage of Qi training for a long time, and tried to break through the foundation twice, but both ended in failure.

  By chance, he got an evil method of refining the evil infant pill from a secret realm. After taking the refined pill, the probability of breaking through the foundation will increase by 10% or 20%.

  According to the records of the evil method, he collected hundreds of resentful souls and condensed them into evil infant fetuses. Then he found more than ten girls and controlled them with secret methods to inject the evil infant fetuses into the girls' bodies.

  Then it is sold in various ways. After the target monk buys it, when the two are happy, the evil infant will merge into each other's body silently.

  Since the evil infant itself is an evil treasure, the process of fusion will enhance the spiritual energy in the monk's body, making him have the illusion of a sharp increase in cultivation, and he will be more concerned about dual cultivation. When

  the evil infant and the monk are completely integrated, when the time is right, it will grab all the spiritual power, blood and flesh essence in the monk's body and turn it into an evil infant.

  After the evil infant sucks the monk into a mummy, it will break out of the body and return to the girl's body, using her body to cover up the evil breath and sneak back to his place of residence.

  The whole process is extremely secretive. When the evil infant is integrated into the monk's body, it is difficult for ordinary evil-removing talismans and magic tools to detect the monk's abnormality. Only during the short period of time when it breaks out of the body, a little breath will be revealed.

  However, as long as you don't pay attention all the time, the abnormality in that short period of time will usually not be noticed.

  However, despite such caution, one evil infant was still killed, which made his chances of condensing the evil infant pill even smaller, and it was naturally more difficult to break through to the foundation-building stage.

  This was no different from a blood feud for him.

  "It seems that I have to find a few more young female cultivators to parasitize the evil infant fetus in their bodies, and put it on the black market for cultivators to buy."

  "But if one evil infant is discovered, it may not be as smooth as the first time."

  Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be furious, and the resentment he suffered almost turned into substance, scaring the seven or eight evil infants next to him so much that they dared not move.

  ...

  In the yard.

  Without the threat of the evil spirit on Wang Shan, Lu Xuan felt much more relaxed physically and mentally, and devoted himself to cultivating the many spiritual plants in the spiritual field.

  After the inexplicable evil spirit appeared, the Law Enforcement Hall strictly supervised the area where he lived, conducted inspections from time to time, and was extremely careful about the entry and exit of cultivators in the area.

  However, this did not have much impact on Lu Xuan. Anyway, he basically stayed in the yard, cultivating spiritual plants, and occasionally playing with the cloud-stepping lynx and the red-bearded carp.

  He paid a little attention to the monks from the Law Enforcement Hall who came for inspection. Among the more than ten mid-level Qi training monks who appeared, there was no sign of Tan Xiaodong. Lu Xuan deduced that it was probably the information attached to the last report that played a role and implicated him.   

  Thinking of this, his mood became even better. He felt quite contented while planting the spiritual field.

  In the early morning, the light mist had not yet dissipated.

  The three-foot-tall grass puppet walked out of the mist. It had been patrolling the spiritual field all night without sleep. The dry gray grass on its body was soaked by the mist.

  "What a good employee of mine..."

  Lu Xuan sighed leisurely while holding a white jade bottle. Then he entered the spiritual field and came to the edge of the spiritual spring.

  The three fat red-bearded carps saw his familiar figure and thought they could eat the alien insects. They swam over with a flick of their tails.

  The six slender red whiskers dragged beside them, like six red ribbons, rippling in the spiritual spring pool.

  Lu Xuan sprinkled a handful of spiritual rice and ignored it. He filled half a bottle of spiritual spring water with the white jade bottle.

  A black shadow flashed by.

  The young cloud-stepping lynx jumped up, stepped on the water with its white cloud-like feet, and grabbed the long whiskers of a red-bearded carp and pulled it out of the water.

  The young animal passed through the water, leaving only the red-bearded carp tumbling in the air, and fell into the spiritual spring pool while jumping around, causing ripples.

  The other two red-bearded carps were surprised and quickly dived to the bottom of the spiritual spring pool, making great movements, making the ripples on the water surface more intense and obvious.

  Under the impact of the waves, the white and tender lotus leaves of the Pure Snow Lotus in the center of the spiritual spring pool swayed gently, looking fragile.

  "You are too dishonest, catching fish is fine, but you also prevented my Pure Snow Lotus from growing well. I will deduct a piece of porcupine jerky from you at noon."

  Seeing this, Lu Xuan, who was standing by, reached out and patted the pointed ears of the stepping cloud lynx young animal, threateningly.

  "Ah~~"

  Hearing that the food was deducted, the young animal, who had always maintained a cold appearance, couldn't help but roar.

  It would have been better if he didn't make a sound. Once he made a sound, Lu Xuan heard the sound of his wiggling clamp, and he was more determined to deduct the jerky.

  Afterwards, he took the spiritual spring water to the three Qingmiao spiritual tea plants. The spiritual power controlled the spring water, which turned into a stream and flowed into the tea seedlings.

  After watering the Qingmiao spiritual tea seedlings, he patrolled the spiritual field again. He

  separated the twenty ruthless plants that tried to entangle with each other.

  As the blood jade ginseng grew rapidly, their speed and willingness to get close to each other also increased a lot. This time, if Lu Xuan hadn't stopped them, I'm afraid that more than ten blood jade ginsengs would have been mixed together.

  It almost caused a large-scale group movement.

  After separating the blood jade ginseng, he gave the sword grass two Gengjin sword tactics, allowing it to absorb the sharp sword intent of the sword energy.

  The dark marrow under the wooden shed adjusted the position of the rotten spiritual wood so that it could better absorb the rotten spiritual power in it.

  He caught the Huanyan Luo fruit hidden in the thick white fog. After a few days, the range of the fog around it expanded a little.

  Finally, he came to the red cloud pine that was about to mature, and his mind was focused on the branches and leaves.

  "Hey, there is actually a ripe pine nut?"

  Lu Xuan said in surprise as the thought flashed through his mind.
