Chapter 875 - 873: Joy and Sorrow
```
Just as the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect was dragged out, a fourth-grade Dust Cleaning Pill flew straight into its belly.
After Lu Xuan’s mind swept over and confirmed everything was under control, he turned his head to look at Ye Xuanyin.
"Fellow Ye, how are you feeling now?"
"Slightly better."
Ye Xuanyin attentively sensed her own condition before replying.
"That’s good to hear. I still need to deal with the poison issue for this Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect, so I’ll have to discuss it in detail with Fellow Ye another time." @@novelbin@@
"The poison resistance of this poison insect will only become stronger. Once it gets through this time, and provided there are no problems, I will contact Fellow Ye again to have it continue absorbing the strange poison for you."
Lu Xuan said gravely, his tone hinting at seeing the guest off.
Ye Xuanyin naturally picked up on this and bowed her hands towards Lu Xuan.
"Very well, I’ll keep the help you’ve provided me this time in mind," she said.
She flew away from the cave abode.
After sending Ye Xuanyin off, Lu Xuan immediately returned to the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect
His mind focused on its flesh body, which was covered with fleshy sprouts, and a thought emerged deep within his sea of consciousness
[Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect, a fourth-grade Strange Species of Poisonous Insect, possesses the Disaster Poison Body...]
[Infected by Evil Demon Strange Poison, with the strange poison penetrating deeply into the marrow being extremely hard to extinguish, while also possessing a very strong vitality. A single trace can spread rapidly throughout the body, requiring Divine Skills and Treasure Items that can suppress the Demonic Qi of the Evil Demon to thoroughly remove the strange poison both externally and internally.]
"Divine Ability Treasure Items that suppress the Demonic Qi of the Evil Demon..."
Lu Xuan fell into deep thought.
There were far too many related Divine Ability Treasure Items, making it difficult for him to choose at the moment.
"Mysterious Sky Clear Subtle Method", "Divine Cloud True Law", Emerald Green Qing Yuan Pill, Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds... A fourth-grade Dust Cleaning Pill was completely out of the question.
With a movement of his spiritual power, he performed the Thunder Attribute Secret Technique of the "Divine Cloud True Law", and instantly, strands of thunder silently appeared in front of him, erratic and revealing terrifying power.
Lu Xuan’s fingers moved swiftly, and under his perfectly proficient Thunder Control Method, countless lights of thunder converged to form a silver-white Thunder Knife as thin as cicada wings.
The surface of the Thunder Knife was ablaze with lightning, dazzling and bright.
He gently swung the Thunder Knife, and the silver-white thunder swept along the rough body of the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect. Chunks of dark flesh sprouts fell to the ground where the incisions crackled and were quickly turned to black ash by the Divine Thunder that restrained the Evil Demon.
Having absorbed several "Thunder Control Chapter" Experience Packages, Lu Xuan’s control over the Thunder Knife, formed by tens of thousands of lightning bolts, as well as its precision in slicing the demon sprouts, was extremely stable without the slightest fluctuation.
After clearing the outer flesh sprouts on the poison insect’s body, Lu Xuan’s spiritual power moved, and the Thunder Knife dissipated back into threads of lightning and vanished.
He then circulated the "Mysterious Sky Clear Subtle Method", a wisp of hazy pure air penetrated the insect’s body and swept from head to toe.
Then the second wave, and the third, under the repeated sweeps of the pure air, the mysterious evil demon strange poison that hid within the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect’s body was finally completely cleansed.
The two methods, one a Sixth Grade Original Cultivation Method originated from the Xuan Sky Sect, and the other a Supreme Law from the Divine Xiao Sect, both had a natural suppressing effect on evil spirits. The combination of the two smoothly disposed of the Strange Poison Qi.
The Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect slowly regained consciousness, looking at the black ash that was once its flesh sprouts and secretly swallowed.
"Just a moment ago you were poisoned and distorted beyond recognition, and now you want to absorb more strange poison; you really don’t learn, do you?"
Seeing the insect in such a state, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but show a trace of amusement.
"Wait until you’ve properly digested the newly acquired poisons, then I’ll call over that cultivator so you can have your fill in one go."
The Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect was extremely sensitive to poisons and harmful substances, but it was also extraordinarily gifted. After it managed the first challenge successfully, subsequent ones would be much easier.
"This could even be considered a serendipitous encounter for you, little bug."
```
He sighed.
After the Strange Poison of the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect had not relapsed, he returned to the Spirit Field with peace of mind, inspecting the state of each Spirit Plant and meticulously nurturing them one by one.
"Hmm? There’s no Light Cluster reward, but I can directly obtain a Strange Treasure."
He exclaimed in surprise, coming to the E-Mu Green Thunder Vine that had been transplanted from the Ancient Herb Garden.
The E-Mu Green Thunder Vine took root in the simple Thunder Pond he had built, with numerous deep green vines hanging down. Lu Xuan, with his extremely sharp eyesight, saw two clusters of Cyan Spiritual Liquid condensed at the ends of two vines, the liquid held together without dispersing, conveying both a sense of nature and destruction.
"After several years of transplanting, it has finally congealed two clusters of Yi Wood Green Thunder Liquid for me."
Lu Xuan’s lips curled into a smile as he carefully collected the two clusters of Cyan Spiritual Liquid into the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.
This Yi Wood Green Thunder Liquid was a Sixth Grade Spirit Liquid, rarely seen in the world, capable of tempering the Flesh Body and assisting in the cultivation of Thunder Attribute Divine Skills and Techniques, which was extremely useful for him.
"After this, I can accelerate the pace of cultivating the "Divine Cloud True Law" and the "Five Thunder Righteous Method"."
Although he couldn’t reap a Light Cluster reward from the transplanted E-Mu Green Thunder Vine, the vine itself was a Seventh Grade Spirit Plant, and both the Spiritual Liquid it congealed and the Spirit Fruits it bore were of precious value. Lu Xuan couldn’t be more satisfied.
After harvesting the two clusters of Yi Wood Green Thunder Liquid, Lu Xuan then returned to his usual life.
The incident of the Evil Demon invasion of the Heavenly Star Cave was coming to an end with the involvement of countless Loose Cultivators.
Half a month later, he accepted an invitation from Guo Bingqiu, a fellow Cultivator in the Golden Core Late Stage from nearby, to meet for a small gathering.
"Fellow Cultivators, to victory!"
"To celebrate that we have driven the Evil Demon back together and also to celebrate that everyone has returned safely, seized the opportunity, and exchanged for treasures!"
Guo Bingqiu stood up, holding a cup of Spirit Brew, and downed it in one gulp.
"To victory!"
Everyone shouted in unison, with excited expressions lingering from after the battle.
"This time, with the help of fellow Cultivators, I have exchanged for a Sixth Grade Magic Artifact from the Sky Star Cave, and I’m endlessly grateful!"
Guo Bingqiu said with a smile.
"It’s a pity that even after banding together, we are still outmatched by other forces and failed to obtain that Seventh Grade Treasure Item, the Nine Sky Elementary Yang Ruler."
"To have obtained significant gains individually is already quite an achievement."
"If only the Evil Demon would invade again, I would definitely make ample preparations to exchange for the treasure I desire from Sky Star Cave!"
"Fellow Cultivator, speak carefully. Do you realize that many Cultivators have tragically died at the hands of the Evil Demon? If friends and family of the deceased were to hear these words, they might be upset."
"Indeed, indeed, I spoke without thinking. Please don’t take offense, fellow Cultivator."
"Alas, two good friends I have known for many years, one dead and one injured."
People discussed fervently, at times excitedly talking about the various treasures they exchanged from Sky Star Cave, lamenting the missed opportunities to obtain this treasure or that, beating their chests and stamping their feet in regret.

At times, they sank into sorrow over the loss of friends and family, bringing up the various mysterious and powerful Evil Demons; some even showed a hint of fear.
It was evident that this demon-hunting expedition had left a heavy shadow on many Cultivators. It wouldn’t be surprising if some even developed a Heart Demon from it.
In a corner, Lu Xuan seemed out of place, unable to join any of the conversations.
He, however, was quite content in his detachment, enjoying the various delicacies and exotic dishes.
"The joys and sorrows of Cultivators do not resonate with one another. I find them noisy," he thought to himself.
