Chapter 570: Illusion
"Junior brother, you sneak around from this side, and I’ll go behind that person. Look for my signal, we’ll attack at the same time.”
In the midst of the thunder and lightning, a voice as thin as a mosquito’s buzzed.
"Alright, I didn’t expect to encounter such a fat sheep today. He actually came to the Thunder Sea by himself.”
A slightly excited voice rang out.
Lu Xuan, hidden by his Clear Dragonfly Feather Robe, wasn’t accurately assessable to the two men. But judging from the area he was operating, it was unlikely he was a powerful cultivator.
Due to their ability to hide their forms within lightning with the Thunder Escape Secret Law, the two often ambushed and killed other cultivators in the Thunder Sea to acquire their cultivation resources.
Under a combined sneak attack, even a Foundation Establishment Late-term Cultivator might die at their hands. As a result, when they saw Lu Xuan alone, they decided to take another shot.
In the lightning, faint ripples spread out, and the two, one ahead and one behind, blocked Lu Xuan’s path.
"Now!”
The Foundation Establishment Late-term Cultivator produced a faint signal and both men attacked Lu Xuan simultaneously.
Under the torrential onslaught, Lu Xuan revealed an expression of terror, seemingly accepting his fate of impending death.
In an instant, his terrified expression abruptly transformed into a sly smile.
"Something’s wrong, this person is a decoy!”
The Foundation Establishment Late-term Cultivator sensed something amiss with their prey and shouted out a warning.
But it was already too late.
A large grey eyeball popped out of a narrow crevice, staring emotionlessly at the two men.
Illusions began to proliferate in their sea of consciousness, making them feel a momentary stupor.
In that brief moment, Lu Xuan’s figure shattered like a mirror. A talisman shaped like a sword tip appeared before the two men.
As they regained their senses, the talisman unleashed a torrent of endless minuscule Sword Qi, engulfing them like a raging tidal wave.
Soon, they were swallowed by the endless Sword Qi and perished, leaving behind two bodies full of sword wounds.
"It’d be great if there were a few more cultivators like them.”
Lu Xuan leisurely left the outskirts of the Thunder Sea, but unfortunately, he did not encounter any similar experiences. He found it too troublesome to act as a robber himself and returned to the dwelling.
His trip had been quite rewarding. He had collected more than ten Spirit Thunders, so he would not have to worry about the Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit not being fully nourished for a short period of time.
Furthermore, he had obtained a large number of spirit stones and some magical tools and elixirs from the two tribulation cultivators. All he paid was a fourth-grade Roaring Sea Sword Charm.
He still had fifty to sixty sword charms left, and he had obtained the method of condensing seeds in the sword nurturing gourd, which allowed him to mass cultivate for a long time. He would only worry about having too many leftovers.
As soon as he entered the dwelling, the spirit beasts came to greet him, relaxing Lu Xuan, who had been on tenterhooks in the Thunder Sea.
After calming the spirit beasts, he went to the core area of the spirit field.
In the Wu Spirit Soil, the seed of the Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit was buried. Threads of thunder releasing power and the constant crackling sound on the surrounding spirit seeds could all be heard.
"I can begin cultivating this sixth-grade spiritual plant.”
Lu Xuan’s lips curled upwards, he could not wait to take out a jade box from his storage bag, tear open the forbidden charm on the outside, and pinch a crimson thunder bead in his hand.
Fine, hair-like crimson thunder surged on the surface of the bead. It could be seen that it was highly unstable due to the expansion and collapse of thunder at its minute locations.
Lu Xuan took a deep breath, infused his spiritual sense into it, and a red thunder shot out from the bead in a moment, quickly entering the deep purple spiritual seed in the spirit soil.
Through his acute spiritual sense, he noticed a faint sign of life in the spiritual seed, which shook like a flower of thunder.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan smiled with satisfaction, did the same thing again, and extracted strands of red thunder from the bead and introduced them into the Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit spiritual seed.
When he felt that the spiritual seed was saturated, he carefully kept the now half its original size crimson thunder bead.
"The sixth-grade spiritual plant, Phoenix Wood, is going to mature soon. The cultivation of Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit has started, and with the Thunder Sea in the Thunder Fire Asterism Cave, there is currently no need to worry about the subsequent cultivation problems.”
"Then there’s the Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Wood. I can’t find a suitable environment for it yet, but with many powerful sects in the Central State Continent, which is a cultivation paradise in the Cloud Void Domain, the chances of finding it should be higher.”
"Finally, there is the Logusedemon Bone Demon Seed. There is no clue at all. Should I find a demonic monster as the cultivation carrier?”
Lu Xuan pondered in his heart and decided to take one step at a time and let nature take its course.
