Chapter 291: White Bone Demon Puppet
Chapter 291: White Bone Demon Puppet
Fixed some mistakes in chapter 290
Lu Xuan's consciousness coalesced on the Thorny Bone, quickly grasping its detailed information.
[Thorny Bone, third-grade spirit plant, cultivated from skeletal essence, usable for refining high-level puppets or certain white bone sinister artifacts.]
"Good quality. Considering the transplantation this time, there weren't many cultivated in Jianmen Town before. Obtaining such quality is already quite good."
Lu Xuan speculated that the high-grade skeletons such as the Six-Eyed Crimson Iron Scorpion and the Armored Bull played a significant role in this; otherwise, it would have been difficult to obtain a good third-grade mature Thorny Bone.
He collected the Thorny Bone and shifted his focus to the quietly emerging white light mass.
The light mass flickered slightly, with many white bone shadows appearing on its surface. Lu Xuan, filled with anticipation, gently touched the surface of the light mass.
In an instant, the light mass transformed into countless tiny light spots, surging into his body.
A thought flashed through his mind.
[Obtained third-grade Thorny Bone, obtained fourth-grade treasure White Bone Demon Puppet.]A ball the size of a baby's head appeared in Lu Xuan's hand.
The ball was uneven, emitting a pale white light, seemingly condensed from countless fine white bones.
Lu Xuan's consciousness condensed on the pale white ball, instantly grasping detailed information about it.
[White Bone Demon Puppet, fourth-grade treasure, extremely hard, comparable to a fourth-grade artifact. Under spiritual control, it can freely switch between various forms.]
[After spiritual energy is depleted, it needs to absorb skeletal essence from high-grade cultivators or demons to replenish.]
"A fourth-grade treasure, capable of freely switching between various forms?"
Lu Xuan looked at the White Bone Demon Puppet in his hand with surprise. With a thought, the white bone ball in his hand suddenly sprouted densely packed bone spurs.
The bone spurs were about one to two feet long, extremely sharp, resembling a hedgehog.
Then, numerous bone spurs suddenly softened, and the ball rapidly elongated, forming a bone spear over a yard and a half long.
With a bone-chilling spear in his hand, Lu Xuan pointed the spear at a distant boulder, his mind moved.
"Shoot! Divine Spear!"
In an instant, the bone spear elongated sharply, piercing into the boulder amidst a spark of lightning.
The boulder instantly shattered, and large and small rocks flew in all directions, scattering all over the ground.
"Not bad."
Lu Xuan squinted his eyes, secretly pleased.
Under his spiritual control, the white bone ball continuously transformed into various forms—bone swords, bone spears, and myriad bone arrows—allowing him to play with it for a long time.
Time flew by on the island. After initially feeling uncomfortable, Song Yu gradually became accustomed to Lu Xuan's every move.
He only left behind a communication talisman for urgent situations, such as sea beasts attacking the island or the intrusion of evil cultivators or spirits.
During the rest of the time, he used Song Yun as a mouthpiece to report recent events on the island to Lu Xuan.
In his leisure time, Lu Xuan would also give Song Yun some guidance on his sword techniques. Due to long-term cultivation of sword grass and absorbing several experiences of sword intent, he was also quite proficient in swordsmanship.
After casually pointing out a few places, Song Yun made considerable progress in swordsmanship.
Days passed simply yet fulfilling.
In the boundless sea, there was a high-rise building by the sea.
The high-rise was not just a hundred feet tall. At the top stood two extraordinary cultivators.
One was a sharp-faced woman, the other a lazy-looking young man, both in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
At this moment, the young man held a fishing rod over ten feet long in his hand. The fishing line was made of an unknown material, with invisible patterns running along its length, shimmering with a silver-white light under the sunlight.
Suddenly, the fishing rod plummeted downward.
Unperturbed, the lazy young man tightened his grip on the fishing rod, feeling the tremendous force, and lifted it backward.
On the wrist-thick fishhook hung a two-yard-long carp.
The carp had a strange appearance, with a slender body somewhat resembling a dragon. Its whiskers kept moving, struggling in the air.
"Fellow Daoist Shi has excellent methods. He easily caught a second-grade rare dragon carp."
The sharp-faced woman beside him glanced at the huge carp, praising expressionlessly.
"Haha, friend Zhou is too kind."
"It's not in vain that I crafted such a fishing rod comparable to a magic tool using special methods and used third-grade demon beast meat as bait to luckily catch such a rare dragon carp."
"It looks like it weighs over a thousand catties."
Feeling the force transmitted through the fishing rod, he said with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, let's go back to the island together later and taste the flavor of this dragon carp."
"Fellow Daoist Shi comes to the seaside to fish every day. Aren't you worried about the new inner disciples who have arrived on the island?"
The sharp-faced woman said lightly.
"Oh? Has the new inner disciple of the Sky Sword Sect already arrived? I've been staying by the sea every day and haven't paid much attention to the news over there for a long time."
The lazy young man raised an eyebrow and looked at the female cultivator.
"He arrived more than half a month ago."
"What's the situation with the newcomer? Is he as arrogant and domineering as the previous Xue Manzi?"
The young man slowly reeled in the fishing line inscribed with runes and asked.
"It's not the same temperament; you could say they're two extremes. The only similarity is their peculiarity."
"What do you mean by peculiar?"
"According to the news from the Empty Abyss Island, the new stationed cultivator is very young. Upon arriving on the island, he asked the Song family to find a spiritual field for him."
The sharp-faced woman, well-informed, said slowly.
"Looking for a spiritual field? Could it be that the new stationed cultivator is a spiritual plant cultivator?"
The lazy young man looked somewhat surprised, smiling.
"It should be. In the past half month, he has been staying in the spiritual field, rarely going out. Even the island owner, Song Yu, has invited him several times without success."
"It's quite rare. But if he's a spiritual plant cultivator, he probably isn't good at combat techniques. He's likely here just for show."
The young man took out a piece of golden demon beast meat from his storage bag, hung it on the fishhook with force, and cast it into the rippling water.
Upon hearing that Lu Xuan was merely a spiritual plant cultivator passionate about cultivating spiritual plants, the lazy young man's attitude changed considerably, lowering his level of regard for Lu Xuan by two levels.
"Despite that, he's still a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Sky Sword Sect. Fellow Daoist Shi, don't underestimate him."
The sharp-faced woman squeezed out a smile. Although she said so, she somewhat agreed with the lazy young man's view, feeling somewhat dismissive about the new stationed cultivator from the Sky Sword Sect.
