Chapter 388: Seeking Seeds

The Demon Ghost Vine touched the ground, instinctively standing tall upon sensing the aura of demonic beast puppets in the distance, its tendrils secreting grey mucus.

With a thought from Lu Xuan, the White Bone Demon Puppet transformed into a thick bone chain, tightly binding the remaining demonic beast puppets and dragging them in front of Lu Xuan.

"Feast to your heart's content!"

Lu Xuan looked down at the eagerly wriggling Demon Ghost Vine and commanded softly.

At his words, the Demon Ghost Vine’s grey tendrils split into many tentacle-like branches, which grew rapidly in the wind. The intertwining vines sported suction cups bristling with sharp teeth and a dense thicket of vicious spikes.

Presented with such a feast, the fifth-grade Demon Ghost Vine finally demonstrated a bit of its level's elegance.

With a whooshing sound, countless vines covered the sky, swiftly reaching the demonic beast puppets. They wrapped tightly around the beasts, rendering them immobile, with the vine tips attaching to the puppets' heads.

Like slurping snails, a variety of bizarre mixtures from within the beasts were sucked out by the Demon Ghost Vine, swallowed whole.Alll latest novels at novelhall.coments later, the grey tendrils returned to their normal state, albeit noticeably thicker than before, moving somewhat clumsily across the ground.

As for those demonic beast puppets, once the integrated Parasitic Yin Thread was consumed, they were left as mere husks, breaking into countless pieces upon hitting the ground.

"How does the combination of third-grade Parasitic Yin Thread and corresponding grade demonic beast flesh taste?"

Lu Xuan sent a thought to the Demon Ghost Vine, inquiring.

The vine struggled to stand tall, nodding continuously, its simple consciousness filled with joy.

"Did this outing satisfy your hunger?"

The vine kept nodding, pityingly, it had marked numerous rare and high-grade spiritual plants in the cave abode, but this was the first time it had enjoyed such a large feast.

"Full belly means it's time to work! Move around, digest a bit!"

Lu Xuan flicked the tip of the grey vine, looking at its bloated body with a hint of disdain.

"Look around for traces of seeds from such plants."

Lu Xuan took out a seedling of the Aberrant Arrow Vine from the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

Anticipating the attack of demonic beast puppets, he had prepared early by transplanting the Arrow Vine seedling into the pouch.

With

a flick of his finger, Lu Xuan released a continuous stream of sword intent, as gentle as a spring breeze, silently slicing the ore into countless pieces without harming the small green arrow inside.

In a few breaths, the small green arrow was fully revealed before Lu Xuan.

The arrow, the size of his index finger, occasionally emitted a green spiritual light. Upon closer inspection, he could sense a faint vitality within.

He used the Earth Attraction Technique to place the small green arrow seed into dark red spiritual soil.

【Aberrant Arrow Vine, a fourth-grade spiritual plant, requires a cultivator's guidance to condense arrow-shaped spiritual energy and nourish the plant during growth. Upon maturity, it releases arrows of various forms, capable of launching a barrage of arrows when facing formidable enemies, with strong lethality.】

【The seed's chance encounter with spiritual ore, separated from the spiritual soil's energy, prevented it from rooting and sprouting normally, causing its vitality to slowly fade. It needs to be placed near an object rich in life force and continuously nurtured until it recovers.】

"Poor little seed, how did you end up falling into the ore."

Lu Xuan sighed, storing the small green arrow seed in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

As for an object rich in life force, the green small sword in the Profound Sword Sheath would suffice, so there was no worry in that regard.

"Well done, keep it up."

Lu Xuan took out a Flame Fruit, rewarding the grey vine with a gentle pat on its tip.

The Demon Ghost Vine, more motivated, continued to spread numerous tendrils, searching diligently with its keen sense for seeds.

"Hm? Two cultivators from the Divine Peaks Sect."

Lu Xuan, looking into the grey-white pupil in his palm, noticed through the Void Nightmare Eye's vision that two cultivators in Divine Peaks Sect robes were frantically fleeing towards him, with more than a dozen demonic beast puppets in hot pursuit.

Without hesitation, he ordered the Demon Ghost Vine back into his sleeve and fully activated the Floating Light Body Technique, heading directly towards the cultivators.

"Better to mind my own business and focus on finding spiritual seeds."

"With so many demonic beast puppets, a mere spiritual plant cultivator like me can't handle them, and I'm unable to lend a hand. Surely, the fellow cultivators from the Divine Peaks Sect can understand."

Lu Xuan mused, only stopping after confirming there were no cultivators within a dozen miles through the Void Nightmare Eye.
