Chapter 215: Chapter 214: Spiritual Delicacy Garden, Spirit-Extinguishing Powder (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
Accompanied by a series of bird cries, one black hawk after another swooped down.
Lu Xuanji wielded the Li Fire Sword, and the battle erupted.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Both sides were engaged in a fierce battle.
Slash!
With a crisp sound, a black hawk was killed on the spot, its body shattered, blood splattering the sky.
"This is too weak!"
Lu Xuanji frowned slightly, sensing something was off.
Another flash of sword light, and a Purple Mansion Demon Beast was slain.
Sword light flashed continuously, tearing apart everything, as black hawks fell one after another, getting slain.
In no time, fifteen Purple Mansion Demon Beasts were all killed.
Killing fifteen black hawks, Lu Xuanji felt a sense of falsehood.
In the battle on White Tiger Mountain, the Purple Mansion Demon Generals were all valiant and formidable, with terrifying destructive power, causing many of the human Purple Mansion Cultivators to bleed and perish.
When a dozen Purple Mansion black hawks charged at him, Lu Xuanji was prepared to retreat, but in the ensuing battle, the combat power of these beasts was unexpectedly low, shockingly weak.
With a wave of his hand, he collected the corpses of these beasts into the Heaven Mending Cauldron and continued forward.
As he walked, he encountered a White Tiger Demon Beast.
But after less than three moves in a fierce battle, the White Tiger Demon Beast was killed.
Continuing forward, he encountered many more demon beasts, but their combat power was so pathetically low, it was as if they had fallen into the gutter, being effortlessly killed.
These Purple Mansion Demon Beasts had not refined their Cross Bone, couldn’t speak; they couldn’t transform, lacked powerful Attacking and Killing Art, and their control over Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was weak and scattered.
Not only that, their intelligence was muddled, like wild beasts, relying on instinct to fight and bite.
In battle, Lu Xuanji repeatedly executed the Purple Mansion Demon Beasts.
These Purple Mansion Demon Beasts only had the realm of Purple Mansion, but lacked intelligence, possessing no strong intellect, unable to speak, and lacked powerful Divine Treasure, their real combat power was just at the level of an external Foundation Establishment Demon Beast.
The combat power of these beasts was so low, they were practically here to deliver meat.
......
Chirp, chirp!
With a cry, a Black Hawk King appeared, its wings spreading like blades.
Lu Xuanji used the Earth Escape Golden Light to move up and down, dodging the swooping attacks.
The Black Hawk King swooped several times but hit nothing.
At the next moment, Lu Xuanji appeared above the Black Hawk King’s head, with runes gathering in his palm, as thirty thousand Elemental Magnetic Runes converged into the Elemental Magnetic Celestial Saber, slashing down.
Rumble!
The giant eagle head fell, the Black Hawk King struggled, plummeting to the ground.
Lu Xuanji reached out to grab, instantly a round Golden Core landed in his hand.
"I actually killed a Golden Core Demon Beast!"
Lu Xuanji frowned.
This Golden Core Demon Beast couldn’t speak, had no Lifebound Divine Techniques, couldn’t harness Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, its mind muddled, it fought purely on the instincts of a wild beast.
In the intense battle, a counterattack played out, a Golden Core Demon Beast was forcefully slain by him, a second level Purple Mansion Cultivator.
Absurd and laughable.
At this moment, Lu Xuanji sensed a terrifying aura approaching, he activated the Concealing Breath Technique to hide his aura, blending into the surrounding scenery.
Chirp, chirp!
Just at this moment, a ten-zhang-long Flood Dragon flew across the sky, its terrifying aura exerting pressure in all directions, causing the surrounding demon beasts to tremble and crouch on the ground, not daring to move a bit.
The Flood Dragon glanced at him, seemingly seeing through his Concealing Breath Technique, but it ignored him, or rather disdained to care about him, and flew away directly.
"This is a Nascent Soul Demon Beast, yet it can’t transform, can’t speak, even its intelligence is muddled!"
Lu Xuanji sensed the Flood Dragon disappearing into the distance, frowning.
In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, some Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts can transform, but here, Nascent Soul Demon Beasts cannot transform.
"This Nascent Soul is somewhat weak, but it’s still not something I can handle..."
Lu Xuanji concealed his aura, opened Baidu Map, and at this moment adjusted the color of small dots on the map, showing that the minimum cultivation level here was Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts, with a dense presence of Purple Mansion Demon Beasts, some Golden Core Demon Beasts roaming, and occasionally twenty Nascent Soul Demon Beasts roving.
The number of demon beasts is rather large.
Just at this moment, he saw traces of humans appearing on the map.
Some human Cultivators appeared on the Sword Island Fragment, excitedly hunting demon beasts, causing the demons to perish.
On Baidu Map, the tracks of individual human Cultivators are displayed, ranging from Foundation Establishment Qi Cultivators to Foundation Establishment, Purple Mansion, and Golden Core, clearly indicating that they too entered this Sword Island Fragment through various channels, and after overcoming initial panic, started hunting the demon beasts.
After all, such weak and easy-to-hunt demon beasts were too few.
A large number of demon beasts were hunted, but it also alarmed the Golden Core Demon Beasts, Nascent Soul Demon Beasts, drawing to the demon beast’s counterattack.
In this area of ten thousand miles, an intense battle erupted, with demon beasts dying, and human Cultivators dying.
After the demon beasts died, their corpses were taken by human Cultivators; after humans died, their bodies were directly eaten by demon beasts.
The battle scene was extremely bloody and brutal.
This seemingly trivial Baidu Map was now playing a huge role, allowing Lu Xuanji to know the terrain thoroughly, becoming familiar with the distribution of demon beasts here, avoiding Golden Core Demon Beasts, avoiding Nascent Soul Demon Beasts, advancing towards a certain location without any mishap.
After approximately traveling five thousand miles, he reached a location where a stone stele stood in front.
The stone stele had three characters inscribed.
[Spiritual Delicacy Garden]
Seeing these three characters, Divine Thought probed the stone stele, which transmitted information about this place.
Spiritual Delicacy Garden was where the Ancient Sword Sect raised demon beasts, regularly providing meat services for Cultivators.
The Purple Mansion Demon Beasts, Golden Core Demon Beasts, Nascent Soul Demon Beasts, and even Divinity Transformation Demon Beasts here were regularly captured by Cultivators of the Ancient Sword Sect, taken to the kitchen, plucked and skinned, made into various delicacies.
The water source here contained Spirit-Extinguishing Powder, which many demon beasts ingested when they drank water, resulting in the beasts here being muddled in intelligence, unable to develop intellect, transform, speak, let alone cultivate Divine Power Techniques.
Swoosh, swoosh!
With a few flashes, he reached a small river’s edge.
He took out a bowl of water and carefully examined it, finding traces of medicinal powder inside.
Long-term consumption can prevent demon beasts from developing intelligence.
Even after the fall of the Ancient Sword Sect, and the fragmentation of Sword Island, the Spirit-Extinguishing Powder here still exists.
Demon beasts that develop intelligence can cultivate techniques, awaken Lifebound Divine Techniques, temper their bloodline, engage in Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Talisman Making, and establish the civilization and territories of the Demon Race, not falling behind in confrontations with humans, sometimes forcing humans to huddle in their territories.
But demon beasts without developed intelligence can’t speak, can’t transform, are chaotic and disordered, like wild beasts, not only weak in combat but also easy to defeat one by one.
