I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

"As Friend Lu has seen, the condition of my arm is quite dire right now." @@novelbin@@

"While hunting an Evil Demon, I accidentally got infected with a Strange Poison emanating a Demonic Qi. The infection spread incredibly fast, but fortunately, I made a decisive move and amputated my own arm."

"However, the amputated area has turned into what it is now."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan involuntarily took a step back, his expression solemn.

"Does Fellow Ye need my assistance in some way?"

"Indeed, Ye Mou has come to purchase a bottle of Fourth-grade Dust Cleaning Pill from you, Friend Lu."

"After getting infected with that Strange Poison bearing the aura of an Evil Demon, I have tried many methods, but none have been very effective—they can at best prevent the wound from worsening."

"And the Dust Cleaning Pills that you have crafted have shown good effects."

"I plan to use the Dust Cleaning Pill to delay the deterioration of my condition first, then look for a fundamental solution."

Ye Xuanyin said helplessly.

She had previously attended a private auction held at Lu Xuan’s Grocery Store, where she saw many Dust Cleaning Pills.

But by the time she went, they had all been sold out. Getting even one took a long time and the prices were outrageously high.

Knowing that the Grocery Store was Lu Xuan’s business, she guessed that Lu Xuan could concoct those Dust Cleaning Pills, so she came directly to the entrance of his Cave Abode to wait.

"Purchase a bottle of Dust Cleaning Pill? That can be easily done, Fellow Ye please come in."

Lu Xuan, without explaining where he had been, invited Ye Xuanyin into his Cave Abode.

After arriving in the courtyard, he poured a cup of Jade Wash Spirit Dew for Ye Xuanyin.

"Fellow Ye, this Jade Wash Spirit Dew has some effect in cleansing the aura of strangeness—quite suitable for you."

Ye Xuanyin expressed her gratitude and took a large sip of the Spirit Brew.

Lu Xuan took this opportunity to check her condition and, confirming that she was not possessed by an Evil Demon, he completely relaxed.

"Fellow Ye, here is a bottle of Dust Cleaning Pill, it contains ten pills. Is that enough?"

"That’s enough, I probably couldn’t afford more."

Ye Xuanyin nodded as she spoke.

"Friend Lu, how many Spirit Stones are needed for this bottle of Dust Cleaning Pills?"

Lu Xuan pondered for a moment, his face breaking into a smile.

"Since we’ve known each other for many years, how about 6000 Low-grade Spirit Stones per pill."

Ye Xuanyin’s expression faltered, the price was more than half lower than what she would expect at the Grocery Store.

She had looked for a long time in both the Grocery Store owned by Lu Xuan and other shops. It would take extreme luck to obtain even one pill for 10,000 Spirit Stones.

"Alright, thank you, Friend Lu. Ye Mou owes you a favor."

Being straightforward, she did not put on an act; she took out a pile of mixed Middle and Low-grade Spirit Stones and handed them to Lu Xuan.

"In order to hunt as many Evil Demons as possible, I’ve almost invested all my assets into preparation. Friend Lu, please do not laugh."

Ye Xuanyin chuckled bitterly.

"If Fellow Ye is currently in a difficult situation, you can keep the Spirit Stones for now and return them to Lu Mou when things are more favorable."

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

"No matter, although I haven’t hunted many Evil Demons, I still manage to exchange for a couple of fine treasures, and the materials can also be sold for quite a few Spirit Stones."

Ye Xuanyin promptly responded.

"Then Lu Mou won’t stand on ceremony."

Lu Xuan Laughed, accepting the Spirit Stones.

A flicker of Spiritual light crossed his mind as he thought of the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect in his Cave Abode that consumed poison as if it were its lifeline.

Since its breakthrough to a fourth grade, even though Lu Xuan had fed it a variety of poisons and toxins, its strength had increased only marginally.

"The Strange Poison from the body of an Evil Demon... I wonder if it would be willing to devour it?"

He murmured to himself, then looked up at Ye Xuanyin.

"Fellow Ye, I have a method that might be able to cleanse the Evil Demon Strange Poison for you. Would you be willing to give it a try?"

"Friend Lu, please tell me."

Ye Xuanyin’s eyes lit up.

"It’s like this, I’ve raised a poison worm as a Spirit Pet. It’s extremely sensitive to toxins and naturally enjoys all kinds of poison. It may take an interest in the Strange Poison on Fellow Ye’s arm."

"Of course, the poison worm is only fourth grade. We’ll have to see whether it has the desire to devour the Evil Demon Strange Poison."

Lu Xuan spoke slowly. Considering the long-term effects left on the body of a Jindan Cultivator, the horror of the Evil Demon Strange Poison was self-evident.

But the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect’s craving for toxins could transcend life and death. Having remained at the fourth-grade level for twenty or thirty years, struggling to break through, Lu Xuan decided to give it a chance.

It could either attempt to devour the Strange Poison, thus likely ascending to fifth rank, or it could recognize the difficulty and retire to spend the rest of its life in the Cave Abode.

Although devouring the Strange Poison carried significant risk, Lu Xuan had several methods at his disposal to remove evil and strange spiritual forces. In addition, being able to fully understand the poison worm’s condition, he could fully protect the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect.

"Ye Mou is willing to try."

Ye Xuanyin agreed without hesitation.

She had tried many methods to resolve the Evil Demon Strange Poison within her body. Purchasing the Dust Removal Pill from Lu Xuan had been an act of desperation, incapable of solving the root issue.

Yet what Lu Xuan had just proposed reignited a glimmer of hope in her heart.

"Good."

Lu Xuan nodded, his Spiritual Thought moved, and he summoned the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect hiding in a corner of the Cave Abode.

A wisp of green smoke drifted over from afar. Soon, the colorfully patterned worm, its back covered with green copper coin-shaped scars, appeared before them.

"This is the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect? I’ve heard of it before, it’s an extremely rare poison worm."

"However, it’s slightly different from the information I had."

Ye Xuanyin was puzzled.

"This is a Strange Species of Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect."

Lu Xuan explained casually.

"I see."

Ye Xuanyin’s hope grew upon hearing this.

Lu Xuan kicked the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect, which was rapidly crawling towards him, to the side, and conveyed Ye Xuanyin’s condition into the poison worm’s mind.

The worm’s yellow-green eyes rolled around, seemingly in thought, as it stared at the flesh buds sprouting continuously from Ye Xuanyin’s arm’s severed end.

Soon, the green copper coin scars on its back silently cracked open, and strands of green smoke wafted out.

"I want to try."

In the end, desire for the Evil Demon Strange Poison overcame fear, and the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect transmitted this thought to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

"Alright, I’ll protect you."

He turned to Ye Xuanyin.

"Fellow Ye, when the worm begins to suck on the poison, it will come over and feed on the Strange Poison at the break on your arm. Please be mentally prepared for this."

"Understood, I will control myself."

Ye Xuanyin’s expression was somber as she nodded.

She squatted down, relaxed her body, and presented her arm’s severed end to the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect.

The Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect stared at the black flesh buds, and as the deep green poison smoke on its back grew denser, it darted forward rapidly and bit off a large chunk.

The black flesh buds seemed to be alive, growing swiftly, extending all the way into the worm’s body.

Green smoke from the insect’s back formed a poison net, enveloping the broken end of Ye Xuanyin’s arm.

Initially, the two deadly poisons were equally matched, but soon the green smoke began to weaken against the poison, fading and entering the insect as the flesh buds inside it swelled rapidly.

Lu Xuan watched the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect closely. Feeling that the timing was about right, he used his Spiritual Sense to drag the delirious insect out.
