Chapter 410: Chapter 408 Saint Baby Pill_1
After the Void Nightmare Eye had discovered the tracks of the evil cultivator, Lu Xuan, who was hiding nearby, took the opportunity to move all the other spiritual plants except the Holy Infant Fruit Plant in the Underworld Court into the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.
This was to conceal this from Ge Pu and the other people who came to help him. After all, it would be okay if there was a Holy Baby Fruit plant, but, if they saw several other fourth or fifth-ranked peculiar spiritual plants, it would be hard to guarantee what the people from the Orthodox Sects, like Ge Pu, would not get suspicious.
However, from the subtle hint that Ge Pu had just delivered, it seemed that he probably had discovered something and had taken the opportunity to remind Lu Xuan about it.
“That’s good.”
Upon hearing this, Ge Pu’s face showed a gentle smile.
Three authentic teachings, two beasts that guard the sect, and Lu Xuan himself, surrounded the deformed corpse of the evil cultivator who had lost his head.
The Mystical Sky White Luan let out a clear cry, a hazy light spiraled around the corpse several times to confirm the absence of Demon Envoys, and only then did it retreat a few steps.
Lu Xuan stepped forward and picked up a thin human skin pouch from the ground. A slight coolness seeped out from the pouch, and it felt identical to skin when touched.
He then removed the storage bag from the evil cultivator and used his spiritual power to break the simple prohibitions left on it, taking out all the items inside one by one.
A black banner talisman packed with resentful spirits, a concealed dark light blade, several bottles of unknown elixirs emanating a spiritual light – judging from its spiritual power, their ranks should not be low, and a number of spirit stones.
What attracted Lu Xuan’s attention was an offspring fruit that resembled an embryo; its shape was 70-80% similar to the spirit fruit on the Holy Infant Fruit Plant.
However, with the wrinkled grey body, the belly bulged, as if something terrifying was quietly brewing inside.

At the back, there were two dark grey lumps of flesh the size of fists; Lu Xuan sensed the flavor of the Saint Infant Fruit from this lump of flesh.
“Thanks to the three senior brothers for their help, and also the two spirit beast friends, for helping me deal with this powerful evil cultivator.”
“Among the spoils found on the body of the evil cultivator, I want this embryonic spirit fruit, the rest can be distributed by the senior brothers as they see fit, I wonder what the senior brothers think?”
“I have no objections.”
“Junior Brother Lu, you decide.”
Ge Pu and Fire Scale Child spoke up, and Zhong Jing Shan, who was standing in one corner, also nodded in agreement.
The three of them came out, either as repayment for Lu Xuan’s help in breeding spirit beasts or after witnessing Lu Xuan’s talent with spirit plants, they wanted to form a connection with him and never intended to obtain many treasures.
As for Lu Xuan, he had chosen a spiritual fruit, which the three of them did not know how to use, and therefore, they did not have any objections to the way he had divided the loot.
After a few words to discuss, Ge Pu was given the human skin pouch and a few elixirs, while Fire Scale Child ended up with the black banners full of resentful spirits and the dark weapon.
As for Zhong Jing Shan, because his Psychic Golden Toad had previously swallowed two half puppets in the Sword Gate Town Small Courtyard, he took just a few spirit stones.
The Luan bird and White Ape, finding there was no spirit fruit they liked to eat when the loot was distributed, said goodbye to Lu Xuan and went their way.
“Seeing that this corpse was left by an evil cultivator in the open field, the Yin Qi that it spreads may pollute the living beings in this area. It would be better to take it back and dispose of.”
Saying this, Lu Xuan didn’t forget to put most of the corpse in his storage bag before leaving, providing a very reasonable reason for this.
None of the three had any objections.
“Junior Brother Lu, we don’t know if the evil cultivator has any companions left in Sword Gate Town, do they need to return to the sect with us?”
Ge Pu asked.
“The evil cultivator with Foundation Establishment Perfect Level fell on the spot, and there was such a big commotion in Sword Gate Town, the vigilance of the cultivators in the town would rise to several levels.
If the evil cultivator had companions, they would have fled long ago and certainly would not be waiting for the cultivators of our sect in Sword Gate Town.”
“I need to go back and handle some follow-up matters.”
Lu Xuan said in a firm tone.
“Good, then let’s go back to the sect first. If there’s anything, Junior Brother, you can always use the Communication Talisman to contact us.”
The three of them bid farewell to Lu Xuan one after another.
Using the Floating Light Body Method and the Five Elements Escape Technique, Lu Xuan quickly returned to the small courtyard in Sword Gate Town.
In the vicinity of the small courtyard, some cultivators attracted by the huge commotion earlier were gathered to watch the fun. In addition, there were a few Inner Sect Disciples of the Sky Sword Sect in their standard Daoist robes maintaining order.
Lu Xuan waited for half a day. When some of the cultivators had dispersed, he sneaked into the small courtyard.
In the small courtyard, the Holy Infant Fruit Plant stood alone. The grey-black shadow of a baby flickered and disappeared into the embryonic fruit.
Above the airspace of the courtyard, the Void Nightmare Eye moved to and fro between the void and reality, observing the movements around the courtyard.
“I didn’t expect to be able to solve a Foundation Establishment perfect realm evil cultivator so easily.”
“It seems that my decision to cling onto the leg of the Guardian Beast and befriend the Authentic Teachings was overwhelmingly correct.”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but sigh.
The evil cultivator was at the Foundation Establishment perfect realm, he had mysterious divided puppets, and possessed extraordinary talisman tools and secret techniques, but he was still easily solved like a toy by a few Authentic Teachings and the spirit beast.
“If I were to face it alone, I probably could solve him with my many Fourth Grade Sword Symbols, Fifth Rank Vast Void Eye, Five-Rank “Pure Yang Real Fire Talisman”, along with my strong flesh body, spiritual sense, and numerous talisman tools, but it definitely wouldn’t be so easy.”
Lu Xuan compared his strength with the evil cultivator a little bit and secretly thought.
“This underworld court has been exposed and is known by my fellow sect members and other forces in Sword Gate Town. It’s not suitable for planting weird spiritual plants anymore. I need to find a new place to deal with the Blood Scourg Flower, Strange Longevity Peach, and other spirit plants.”
Lu Xuan muttered to himself in his heart and came to the Holy Infant Fruit Plant.
Concentrated his mind on the plant, the semi-transparent progress bar below was completely filled.
“The five-grade Saint Infant Fruit Plant has finally ripened.”
Lu Xuan carefully plucked the embryonic spirit fruit from the plant.
“[The spirit fruit of the Holy Infant Fruit Plant, cultivated from resentful infant souls, can be used alone or fused with the mother plant to enhance the effect of the spirit fruit.]
“[Consuming the spirit fruit can enhance the spiritual sense, improve the root nature, and is also the main ingredient for refining the Fifth Grade Saint Baby Pill. High-quality complete Holy Infant Fruits can even be used to refine an external avatar.]
“This offspring fruit is not a complete fifth-grade spirit fruit, I wonder what kind of reward it can produce.”
Lu Xuan looked at the emerging white light cluster on the plant, filled with expectation.
He extended his hand and gently touched the surface of the light cluster.
Suddenly, numerous light points surged into his forehead, thoughts flashing in his mind.
“[Harvest one Ling Fruit from the Five-Grade Holy Baby Fruit Plant and gain a Five-Grade Dan Medicine, Saint Baby Pill.]
A black pill about the size of an egg appeared in Lu Xuan’s hand.
The surface of the pill was covered with grey-black spiritual patterns. As the spiritual patterns moved, they looked like countless deformed baby faces. A pure and strong yin Qi seeped out from inside the pill, and smelling it made one’s spiritual power become instantly active.
“[Saint Baby Pill, Five-Grade Dan Medicine, refined from the Five-Grade Saint Baby Fruit. After taking it, it can slightly increase the probability of breakthrough to Core Formation.]
