Chapter 310 The Devil’s Trace
[Wind and Thunder Sword, a fourth-grade flying sword, is forged from Tianwai Wind and Thunder Stone as the main material. The sword body contains powerful wind and thunder power. 】
"Fourth-grade flying sword..."
A thought flashed through Lu Xuan's mind and he muttered to himself.
This is the first fourth-grade flying sword he drew from the light cluster. The third-grade purple electric sword has been used for such a long time, and it can finally be updated.
In the case where evil spirits may appear in the waters of Kongming Island, with the addition of this fourth-grade wind and thunder sword, his strength will also increase.
"However, the Wind and Thunder Sword comes from the mature light mass of the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, and the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass is cultivated from the Sunda Thunder Sword Light. Both of them have the spiritual power of Wind and Thunder in common."
Lu Xuan recalled that Jianwan could be integrated into the flying sword to remove impurities in the flying sword and improve the quality of the flying sword.
With the fourth-grade wind and thunder sword and several fourth-grade sword talismans, the Xunlei Sword Pills he obtained when he was in Linyangfang City gradually failed to keep up with his pace.
Thinking of this, the sword pill in Lu Xuan's dantian rotated rapidly, opened his mouth slightly, and flew out of Lu Xuan's mouth.
The egg-sized sword pill is composed of countless subtle sword energy. The sword light is puffed out, black energy is wrapped around it, and occasionally there is an invisible arc flashing past.
Lu Xuan's spiritual power controlled the Xunlei Sword Pill, approaching the blade of the Fenglei Sword.
With a slight sizzling sound, countless small black sword lights penetrated into the blade of the Wind and Thunder Sword.
After a while, the Xunlei Sword Pill completely merged with the Wind and Thunder Sword.
Lu Xuan's spiritual perception revealed that there was a hint of spirituality in the body of the Wind and Thunder Sword, making it more agile and natural when controlling the flying sword, as if it were directed by an arm.
At the same time, the power of wind and thunder contained in the sword blade has also been strengthened by three points, making the sword more powerful and more lethal.
"Whether it is the Xunlei Sword Pill or the Wind and Thunder Sword, both contain the power of wind and thunder. They have the same root and origin. It is not difficult to fuse them together."
Lu Xuan sighed secretly and inserted the Wind and Thunder Sword into the Yangxuan Sword Sheath on his waist.
"Here comes a new sword."
There was a ding sound, and the simple scabbard of the wind and thunder sword inserted into it trembled slightly, as if it could not bear this simple and rough entry method.
There was a faint scream from inside the scabbard. It was unknown whether it was the wind and thunder attached to the wind and thunder sword itself, or the painful howl coming from the scabbard.
"Just get used to it."
Lu Xuan comforted him and let the Yangxuan sword scabbard nourish the Fenglei sword.
In the next half month, everything was calm and the imagined evil invasion did not happen. Just when Lu Xuan thought it was a false alarm, a communication talisman flew into the small courtyard.
After confirming that there was no evil aura on the talisman, Lu Xuan fired a burst of spiritual power to activate the talisman, and Song Yu's slightly urgent voice came from inside.
"Uncle Lu, when the monks of the Song family were patrolling the island, they found something unusual, which is most likely related to evil spirits. I also asked uncle to come over and take a look."
"Due southeast of the outer island."
"Finally it showed up."
Lu Xuan sighed in a low voice, tied the Yangxuan Sword Sheath around his waist, the Xiaohai Sword Talisman, and the Great Sun Sword Talisman were hidden in his sleeves, and many other treasures were placed in the most accessible locations.
His figure was like a floating light, quickly moving toward the southeast of Kongming Island.
When he was about to arrive at the southeastern outer island, his spiritual consciousness spread rapidly and instantly locked onto Song Yu's aura.
"Uncle Lu!"
The moment Song Yu saw Lu Xuan appear, he felt much more at ease.
"What exactly happened?" Lu Xuan asked calmly.
"Is such that."
"Last time, my uncle asked me to pay more attention to the situation on the island every day, so I organized many qi-training monks from my family to patrol the area every day as a small team, and designated areas for careful inspection."
"One of the teams discovered something unusual during a routine inspection."
As Song Yu spoke, he took Lu Xuan into a simple courtyard nearby.
In the small courtyard, the atmosphere was extremely tense.
There was a corpse lying on the ground. There were four monks wearing the Song family's standard robes. A gentle woman was lying on the corpse, wailing silently, almost fainting from crying. There were also several casual cultivators standing aside with expressions on their faces. Confused.
"Song Qiming, come and introduce the specific situation to Senior Lu. Don't leave anything out."
Song Yu said to a middle-aged monk with a serious expression.
The middle-aged monk nodded heavily, came to Lu Xuan, and bowed respectfully.
"Senior Lu, I led three subordinates to patrol here today. I checked each casual cultivator as usual. Just when I was about to use the exorcism charm to check whether they were contaminated by evil spirits, this casual cultivator suddenly got angry and attacked us and others. .”
"We originally planned to control him, but unexpectedly, he was not afraid of death and attacked us crazily. In desperation, we had to kill him."
"I didn't expect that after the killing, the corpse left behind suddenly changed dramatically and became what it is now."
The middle-aged monk is a high-level Qi practitioner, and the other three Song family monks are all mid-level Qi practitioners.
Lu Xuan looked at the corpses on the ground with a solemn expression.
The skin of the entire corpse was gray-white, and there was no trace of blood. There were tiny cracks everywhere, like pieces of cracked dry land.
It can be seen from the wounds on the corpse that the muscles inside are in a dry state. It does not look like it has just been killed, but it looks like it has been exposed to the sun for ten and a half days.
Under the perception of spiritual consciousness, the internal organs in the corpse's body were all gray and black, which was extremely abnormal.
"Is this what you will look like after death?"
Lu Xuan asked Song Qiming.
"Yes, it will be like this after death."
"The four of us can guarantee with our lives that when we attacked this casual cultivator, we used common talismans and spells. After killing him, we didn't do anything again."
The middle-aged monk was afraid that Lu Xuan would doubt him, so he said solemnly, and the three people behind him also took a step forward to express their attitude.
"Well, you don't have to worry, it has nothing to do with you."
Lu Xuan had already carefully inspected several people and said gently.
"Fellow Taoist, what does the dead monk on the ground have to do with you?"
Lu Xuan lowered his head and asked the gentle woman.
The woman looked up at Lu Xuan and replied hoarsely.
"Senior, this is my husband."
Her eyes were red and swollen at the moment, there were traces of tears on her cheeks, and she looked haggard, which showed that the loss of her beloved had a huge impact on her.
"Have you two gone out exploring recently?"
"I teamed up with other monks to search for and collect sand snails. It's been less than a month since I came back."
Lu Xuan nodded slightly.
"Did you notice anything unusual about your husband when you came back?"
"No." The woman nodded blankly. Suddenly, she didn't know what to think of, and her head hit the ground crazily.
"Senior, you must make the decision for us! We are just a small cultivator on an outer island, how can we be involved with evil spirits?"
"The monks from the Song family killed my husband indiscriminately and blamed him for being invaded and contaminated by evil spirits."
"But we are just low-level casual cultivators of Qi training!"
"My husband is usually careful and cautious, just to live one more day!"
The woman completely forgot about her own pain, and the banging sound reached everyone's ears.
