A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 208 Fighting Demon Cultivator

What was floating in front of him was just an ordinary small furnace made of good materials. Like his current black sword, it did not break down with Pang Yuan's death.

The magic technique of engraving alchemy runes on the furnace is beyond the reach of a mere casual cultivator.

After experiencing it for a quarter of an hour, he began to demonstrate.

Of course, he was not willing to use those precious materials yet, he was just familiarizing himself with the various gestures.

Two days later.

"almost."

Finally, when everything was ready, he took out various materials, but only in very small quantities.

This is just preparing poison, which is much easier than making elixir.

In addition, it can ward off the six evil spirits, so it is easy to prepare.

After everything was ready, he slowly began to add various materials into it, and at the same time controlled the six evil energies to merge according to the method described in the jade slip.

Gradually, the small furnace floating in front of him began to move strangely.

But after a while of noise.

"call……"

Like the sound of a fart, a breath of air gushed out from the gap in the stove cover.

Not surprisingly, the first attempt ended in failure.

This was expected and he didn't take it too seriously.

He took out the slag from the furnace. The materials inside were all very valuable. He picked out some that were still usable and put them away, to be used again when his skills were perfected.

After carefully recalling his previous mistakes, he continued to refine it.

Although he continued to fail every time afterwards, he began to have some experience of his own.

However, looking at the damaged materials in the storage ring, I felt an indescribable heartache.

At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if making a medicine is like this, wouldn't refining the elixir waste even more resources?

In fact, even alchemists and talisman masters with good talents rely on huge amounts of spirit stones. Ordinary cultivators don't have to think about it. They just need to kill monsters and exchange them for spirit stones, and then buy them in an down-to-earth manner.

Time passed gradually.

Fortunately, there was enough material to support him.

With each failure, his skills continued to improve by leaps and bounds.

A month later.

"boom……"

The small stove began to tremble, and finally a wisp of smoke as thin as a hair floated out of it.

"It's done!"

Lu Luan was overjoyed. After hundreds of failures, he finally succeeded.

After a brief feeling, the joy in his heart began to fade away. "Although it is considered a success, the quality is too low. I have to continue refining it."

Next, he went to collect the six evil spirits again.

But he didn't know.

At this time, in the clouds outside the island, an old man with red hair and black eyes was looking at him coldly.

However, although the old man's aura was strong, it was also very chaotic, and his body was covered with dried blood. What was even more noticeable was that his clothes were obviously torn on his chest, and you could see that the flesh and blood underneath was a mess. It seemed that it was caused by some terrible attack.

After looking at Lu Luan coldly for a while, he said to himself: "He has the weakest cultivation among the foundation-building realm in the surrounding sea areas, but his blood and essence are rich. If it is refined into blood evil energy, it should be able to temporarily suppress this damn injury. However, his physical strength is good, so we must be careful to prevent him from escaping."

As he spoke, his wound seemed to burst out, and a trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

Then his aura became even more confused. He looked at Lu Luan coldly, then turned and left.

After a while, he landed on an island not far away and looked around. "This place is suitable for setting up a dungeon. Once he steps in, he will definitely not be able to escape."

Next, the old man stood in the air and stretched out his hands which were already covered with scars. Soon, a faint light appeared on his hands, and a formation plate appeared. Then, he clenched his fingers like fangs, and demonic energy entangled him.

His aura was hidden very well, not a single fluctuation was transmitted out.

After holding it tightly, eight ochre-colored small flags suddenly shot out from the array and were inserted in eight directions. Then a magic seal appeared in the surrounded area, like a spider web, with a range of thirty feet.

Two breaths later, the seal disappeared, and the eight flags also sank into the ground and disappeared.

After setting up the formation, the old man came to the hill in the center of the formation. With a wave of his finger, a three-foot-tall shrub-like plant appeared beside him.

"go with!"

The old man ordered.

Then the sapling flew forward by itself, and took root in a rock in a crack. The pattern was very consistent, as if it had been growing there all along, and there was nothing strange about it.

Looking at the fruit hanging on the tree, the old man said quietly, "After you absorb the soul power of that person, it should be fully mature."

"Cough...cough..."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he started coughing. Looking at the blood vomited from his mouth, his eyes were as cold as frost. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "If I hadn't been seriously injured, why would it be so troublesome to deal with a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building?"

For him, this was indeed a lot of trouble.

After checking everywhere to make sure there were no omissions, he disappeared.

Half an hour later.

"Brother, how long are we going to stay on the island? It's so boring."

In the stone pit, Xiao Can held his Qingmu sword in the air, sat on the sword with his little butt, dangling his feet, and asked Lu Luan who was collecting the Six Evil Qi.

It has been tired of staying on the island for some time.

Lu Luan replied: "If you are bored, just concentrate on practicing. If your cultivation is weak, be careful not to be eaten by monsters."

After Xiao Can held his small gourd and drank a mouthful of the spiritual liquid, he shook his head and said, "Practicing is even more boring."

"Ok?"

Lu Luan was about to speak when he suddenly felt something, frowned slightly, and looked to the side.

Just now there seemed to be a spiritual wave coming from the sea.

Xiao Can also felt it. He stood on the sword, pointed forward and said excitedly, "Brother, there seems to be precious spiritual herbs on the island over there. The quality is better than mine."

"You're not mistaken?"

After hearing its words, Lu Luan was very shocked. You know, if the ginseng was put up for auction, the starting price would be at least forty intermediate spirit stones.

"Yeah." Xiao Can nodded affirmatively.

"Go and have a look."

After taking it back into the Huangting, Lu Luan leaped and flew in that direction.

There are many islands and reefs around Aquarius Island, and soon they arrived over a small island.

"Huh? Why is there no more?"

As soon as he arrived here, he found that the spiritual fluctuations had disappeared.

"Brother, I feel it. It's on the island. Look carefully. It must be a very good spiritual herb."

Xiao Can said excitedly in Huangting.

Just by looking at its appearance, you can tell how extraordinary what it sensed is.

"Strange, is it possible that precious spiritual herbs can grow on such a small island?"

Lu Luan was a little confused.

But there are thousands of kinds of spiritual herbs, who can tell clearly? So he spread his soul in the sky and examined it carefully.

“Is this one?”

With Xiao Can's guidance and the vague sensation in his own soul, he soon stopped above a two-meter-long crevice in the rock.

He found an unknown three-foot-tall tree rooted on a rock at the bottom. Its branches and leaves were dense and fine, and it looked ordinary, just like an ordinary shrub on the roadside. The only conspicuous thing was that under the leaves, there was a thumb-sized red fruit hanging, which was so beautiful and about to ripen and fall.

Moreover, the aura of this small tree is extremely restrained, and there is no sense of any fluctuation in its aura at all. It is as if it is just like other plants on the island. If it were normal times, he would not even take a look at it if he passed by.

This is also an instinctive self-protection method for many spiritual medicines. Otherwise, in this sea, if their breath is exposed even a little bit, they will be swallowed by monsters.

"What kind of elixir is this?"

Lu Luan flew down. He didn't recognize this spiritual medicine. Although he bought several jade pendants that introduced information about spiritual herbs in Wudu City, the spiritual herb in front of him was not mentioned among them.

There are so many magical herbs and medicines in the world, who can know them all?

When he came to the side, he looked at the fruit and frowned slightly, "The fluctuation just now should be caused by the ripening of the fruit."

"Pang Yuan has been on Aquarius Island for such a long time and I haven't discovered him, but I managed to meet him. Could it be that his luck has improved recently?" Lu Luan joked to himself.

"Brother, that's it. The branches and leaves contain very rich spiritual essence. If I eat a few bites, I will definitely be able to fully recover."

Xiao Can said impatiently that its injured origin has not yet fully recovered.

"is it?"

After hearing what he said, Lu Luan checked the surroundings and walked in to collect it.

"wrong!"

But before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly felt a very secret aura coming from behind him.

Without thinking too much, he retreated immediately.

However, just as he took one step, a whirlwind blew up all around him.

He only retreated three feet before he felt himself hit a wall and bounced back.

"This is a formation!"

Lu Luan stood in the center, looking around with a gloomy face. He knew that he had fallen into a trap. This was obviously a perfect trap.

The opponent's formation was very well hidden, and he hadn't noticed anything unusual before. He could see that the formation was very solid.

"who is it?"

Lu Luan took out his sword and looked around cautiously.

At the same time, the Yuanshen Killing Sword in the Purple Palace began to shine with golden light, ready to explode at any time.

"receive!"

However, only a shout was heard in the air, and then the roots of the spiritual medicine coiled on the rock began to loosen, and the whole plant flew into the sky.

Finally, it took root again on a rock not far away.

Then a red-haired old man appeared above the formation, looking down at him. Seeing that Lu Luan had been trapped inside, a trace of relief appeared in his eyes, and then he said coldly:

"Haha, good boy, your perception is quite good. You almost escaped."

It was indeed a little short just now, but fortunately I was able to activate the formation half a step ahead of time.

"It's actually a demon cultivator!"

"And this aura is much stronger than mine."

After feeling the demonic energy around that body, Lu Luan's face instantly became even darker, and he couldn't help but hold the sword in his hand even tighter.

He knew that the methods used by the demon cultivators were extremely cruel, and that falling into their hands would definitely be extremely miserable. Moreover, this demon's cultivation was at least one small realm higher than his, and the strength of the demon cultivators would be stronger than those of the cultivators at the same realm.

However, Lu Luan did not act immediately. After all, the God-Slaying Technique could only strike once now, so he had to wait for the best opportunity.

So he stared upwards and asked coldly, "This fellow Taoist, you are so calculating."

As he spoke, he looked at the old man.

In his eyes, he had discovered some of the old man's secrets.

"He has serious internal injuries!" Although he was hiding them, the injuries were too severe, so he soon saw that the old man's body was actually a mess.

Seeing this, I felt a little better.

As long as he is seriously injured, it will be fine. Now he can deal with it. Moreover, he is not hesitant to use the formation, which also shows that the other party is not sure of leaving him behind.

The old man didn't want to waste time talking to him. He just glanced at him coldly and gestured.

The next moment, the surrounding formation suddenly became more powerful.

"Ok?"

Lu Luan also immediately felt that the surroundings became sticky, as if he was trapped in quicksand.

"die!"

Demonic energy was surging around the old man, and he let out a fierce roar. He slapped him with his big hand, and soon a blood-red palm print three meters wide pressed down, with a force as mighty as a mountain.

"Humph!"

Lu Luan took a step forward and did not try to catch it, but dodged quickly.

With his current physical strength, this formation has little impact on him.

"boom!"

The palm print hit the ground directly with a loud bang.

All the rocks within ten feet around were cracked, showing its power.

After dodging the attack, Lu Luan went straight forward and slashed at the figure with the black sword in his hand.

However, the old man did not dodge. Instead, the seal in his hand changed, and a light flashed on the ground. Then a large ochre-colored hand condensed and grabbed Lu Luan.

After performing this, blood flowed from the corner of the old man's mouth. It seemed that he was not at an easy time.

"Go to hell!"

Seeing that Lu Luan had been dragged down, the old man slapped him again.

All this happened in just a moment.

Seeing that he could no longer dodge, Lu Luan held the black sword in front of him and at the same time used all his strength to activate the rune defense.

In fact, he already had some idea of ​​the power of the first palm.

"boom!"

The palm print approached and smashed him heavily to the ground. With a loud bang, rocks flew and dust rose. Although the movement was so loud, it did not shake the surrounding formation at all.

"Cough...cough..."

Lu Luan was still standing in the shallow pit created by the smash, coughing slightly.

This attack was comparable to a full-strength attack from his heavy swordsmanship. Although it was a bit uncomfortable, he still managed to endure it. The rune defense did not let him down.

"Ok?"

Seeing that he was fine, the old man showed surprise in his eyes.
