Chapter 234:Seeking Adventures Amid Stability

Translator: 549690339

In the back mountains of the Demon Sect, a spirit crow landed on the master’s shoulder, no longer looking as dull as it used to.

At the same time, the previous spirit crow seemed like a Black Silly, but now it exuded a cold air.

Of course, this coldness was completely concealed when facing the master.

The master just let it perch on his shoulder, both hands placed behind his back, leisurely pacing under the moonlight.

“So many years have passed, have you finally let go of Boundless Mountain?” the master asked while walking.

Who would have thought, the spirit crow’s present aura really resembled those of the apathetic cultivators on Boundless Mountain.

Upon hearing these words, the spirit crow on the master’s shoulder nodded, and then quickly shook its head.

“I had intended for that kid to visit Boundless Mountain. All you had to do was to attach your soul and primordial blood to something he carried. I didn’t expect him to choose a spirit crow though. Does this coincide with your intentions?”

As the master spoke, he stopped and asked, “Why aren’t you responding?”

“Oh, I nearly forgot, your mouth is still tied up.”

As a spirit beast, a spirit crow is not a common bird. An ordinary rope could never hold its beak.

So, the cloth strip Lu Xun used to bind its mouth was of very good material, it was cut from Ye Sui’an’s robe.

He did not have the heart to cut off a piece from his own black robe.

With a slight motion from the master’s finger, the cloth strip was loosened from the spirit crow’s mouth.

Just then, the spirit crow’s eyes returned to a dull state in an instant.

The haughty spirit crow was nowhere to be seen, once again transforming back into a silly crow,

It opened its beak, flapped its wings, left the master’s shoulder, and began to fly around screaming:

“Fuck off! Gan Linliang!”

“Fuck off! What’s the deal?”

The master’s raised finger trembled a bit.

“Whoosh.”

The fallen cloth strip flew back up, binding the silly crow once again.

Inside the Small Study.

Lu Xun savored a wave of pain, concluding his cultivation for the day.

He picked up the sword sheath placed by his side, moved his fingertips, and one after another the Sword Qi was absorbed by the sheath.

“You’re becoming more and more outrageous,” Lu Xun lightly tapped on the sword sheath.

The sheath used to absorb every Sword Qi one by one. But now, it aligned ten Sword Qi in a row and inhaled all at once.

Like tying ten chopsticks together into a robust cylinder.

“Are you hinting that my Sword Qi is too small!?” Lu Xun said with annoyance.

As his cultivation level is increasing, his spiritual power is also soaring.

Therefore, he can release large amounts of Sword Qi every day, storing them into the sword sheath.

Compounded over days and months, the quantity of Sword Qi is horrifying!

“It appears to be a sword sheath, but it’s actually an arsenal!” Lu Xun chuckled, thinking to himself.

He then took out the green pearl from within the sheath, placed it in his palm, and carefully examined it.

“Is it equivalent to a treasure left by a Great Saint at the ninth realm?” Lu Xun murmured to himself.

Thought about it this way, the turtle clan’s Great Saint probably didn’t die of natural causes.

Otherwise, this green pearl wouldn’t contain such an abundant green life force.

Of course, this was just Lu Xun’s speculation. He didn’t know squat about Great Saints or the ninth realm.

“I guess I’ve started a side job, [Daddy]!” Lu Xun smiled.

In the future, if any of his friends behind him got injured, he could call out to them, “Come here, let me heal you a bit.”

Or perhaps: “Come here, let me give you a touch of green!”

The green bead had been in his hand for quite a while now. The Sword Sheath wanted to absorb the green energy within it, but just like when it was absorbing the Yin Qi, the Sword Sheath’s absorption had a limit.

Thus, Lu Xun asked, “It’s been a while, have you absorbed enough yet?”

The black string on the Sword Sheath floated up and gave a soft hook, indicating that it was already full.

Just as the Yin Bead was directly absorbed by the Sword Sheath into a waste bead, the green bead didn’t seem to have changed much, only its green color had faded a little, but not by much.

“No wonder this is something left by the Great Saint.” Lu Xun gave a compliment.

At this moment, the Sword Sheath gently rubbed against the back of his hand, then the black string pointed at the bead, and then at its own opening.

Lu Xun was amused by its gesture and said, “Don’t worry, even if you’re already full, I’ll still put it in.”

The black string on the Sword Sheath immediately began to dance happily.

It felt like he had raised a Sword Sheath Maiden who was never satisfied.

At this moment, Lu Xun pondered for a moment, then took out the white bead from within the Sword Sheath.

He hadn’t previously taken out the white bead, which had undergone changes, for fear of any accidents.

Moreover, with the emergence of the Foreign Race, especially the one that went to the Tianque Gate, it all served as a warning to Lu Xun.

“Presumably, the Foreign Race also values this bead very much.” He figured in his heart.

Therefore, while he was outside the Sect, he always kept the white bead in the Sword Sheath. But now that he’s back in the Sect, there’s nothing to worry about.

The Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array was no joke, it could perfectly shut off any investigation.

And there were specific prohibitions in the back mountain, it was comparable to an array within an array, which was even more secure.

Moreover, the Demon Sect had many strong cultivators, with the Master also on the mountain… In a word — Stable!

With a ‘pop’, the white bead was taken out of the Sword Sheath by Lu Xun and fell into his palm.

When he first obtained this bead, the Sword Sheath had expressed a strong desire to consume it, but Lu Xun stopped it.

First, this bead came from the Foreign Race, who knows if it held any danger.

Second, I actually wanted to eat it too!

Yes, there was a strong urge to devour it that surged in Lu Xun’s heart!

If not for his astonishing self-control and good at restraining himself, he would have surely faltered!

This was thanks to the experiences from his past life, as many girls liked him, yet he remained steadfast and unruffled, gradually honing his self-control.

Of course, the fear of death was also a very important point.

This was a bead from the Foreign Race, you can’t just freaking eat it willy-nilly, can you?

Apart from anything else, when he first entered the altar and bumped into Bai Beiqiu, that guy was soaking this bead in his own blood!

That dark purple blood was all absorbed by this white bead.

So, despite its pure white exterior, who knows if it’s dirty on the inside.

Disgusting!

“But it still looks so delicious!” Lu Xun suspected he was sick.

“Neither Mao Nanbei nor Lin Chan felt like this before, it seems like only I do.”

At this point, a novel idea popped into Lu Xun’s head.

“I’m currently in the back mountain of the Demon Sect, under the watchful eye of the Master.”

“For me, there’s no safer place in the world.”

This feeling of “having someone powerful covering my back” made him want to do a little experiment.

He looked down at this cold-to-the-touch white bead in his hand, recalling the scenes when he intruded into the altar, and murmur to himself:

“Maybe… I should also drip a few drops of blood onto it?”
