I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 840 - 838: Evil Cultivator? Evil Demon!
The skeleton was only about half a person tall, with its hands pressed together in prayer and seated cross-legged, as if a high monk were in deep contemplation of Buddhist teachings.
Half black and half white, one side as white as jade radiating a shining Buddhist halo, the other dark as ink, capturing the soul.
Within its chest was a cluster of black clouds, from which faint chants intermittently echoed, occasionally revealing the sinister visage of a monk’s phantom, which then vanished back into the clouds.
Lu Xuan’s mind concentrated on the weird skeleton before him, and he instantly understood detailed information about it.
[Demon Buddha White Bone Body, Seventh Grade Treasure Item, a Buddha from the Great Wheel Transferring Temple once infused himself with an Outerworld Sky Demon to cultivate a Supreme Body Refining Technique. Unfortunately, the attempt failed, and he ended up as a half-Buddha, half-demon entity.]
[After his transformation, he left behind a weird skeleton, which an Evil Cultivator with a Nascent Soul acquired. He fused the bones of thousands of cultivators and demon beasts into it, creating the Demon Buddha White Bone Body.]
[Refining it could greatly enhance the strength of the flesh body, allowing one to harness the Demon Buddha’s power within. Once fully assimilated, it could summon the Demon Buddha Dharma Body.]
"A Seventh Grade Treasure Item!"
Although he had anticipated it, Lu Xuan still felt boundless joy when he actually obtained a Seventh Grade Treasure Item.
"Worthy of the Light Cluster! An ordinary Jindan Cultivator seeking to obtain a Seventh Grade Treasure Item would have to risk a life-or-death ordeal to compete with others."
"Unlike me, who just needs to mature High Rank Spirit Plants to produce one High Rank Treasure Item after another."
Lu Xuan gazed at the Demon Buddha White Bone Body before him and couldn’t help but feel moved.
"I’ll leave it for you to use."
He quickly made up his mind.
This Seventh Grade Treasure Item was more suitable for Linggu Transformation.
His main body had already refined a Glazed Red Phoenix Bone of the same grade, and adding the Demon Buddha White Bone Body would provide limited improvement.
Meanwhile, Linggu, merely a transformation created from the Holy Baby Fruit, had a flesh body weaker than that of average Jindan Cultivators.
If he were to refine the Demon Buddha White Bone Body, the improvement in strength was obvious, significantly enhancing the transformation’s power.
Upon hearing this, Linggu used his spiritual power to draw the weird skeleton into his hands, waiting for a suitable opportunity to refine it.
After acquiring the Sixth Grade Skeleton Demon Vision Spirit Plant, Lu Xuan was in no hurry to leave.
He was rarely in the Abyss Star Cave, and naturally had to properly cultivate the Weird Spiritual Plants in the Underworld Spirit Field.
Additionally, a significant breakthrough of the Spirit of Flesh was imminent, possibly yielding a promising Light Cluster reward.
In the following period, he carefully nurtured the Big Meaty Ball, quietly waiting for this Disaster-level Evil Spirit to break through.
One day, while he was cultivating Spiritual Plants in the Spirit Field, a cultivator came to visit.
"Fellow Ling, I’ve long admired your reputation. I was passing by and decided to visit."
The visitor was a tall youth with a string of intricate skulls hanging on his chest, his cheekbones so high they looked as if they were about to pierce his skin, possessing a Mid-term Golden Core Cultivation.
"Fellow cultivator, who might you be?"
Linggu’s voice was hoarse as he asked indifferently.
"I’m Nie Chi from the White Bone Palace."
The youth said with a smile.
Linggu remained calm and nodded his head.
The youth, who was already aware of the reserved nature of this mysterious cultivator before him, took no offense and spoke on his own accord:
"Fellow Ling, the White Bone True Monarch from our palace holds you in high regard. We are planning to host a Grand Assembly of Bones soon, inviting True Monarchs and True Persons from Abyss Star Cave and other places to attend."
"Having admired Fellow Ling’s name for a long time, I’ve come to present this invitation."
"Won’t you invite me in for a chat, Fellow Ling?"
The youth raised his eyebrows, seeming to feel a sense of pride stirred by Linggu.
Linggu nodded slightly.
"Fellow Nie, please come in."
In the depths of the cave abode, where his presence was completely concealed, Lu Xuan fell into thought.
"White Bone Palace... White Bone True Monarch... it’s best not to offend them too much."
Upon his arrival at the Abyss Star Cave, he had learned from that Xiao Bone Cultivator that the White Bone Palace was a colossal entity on the fifth layer, even the Master of Abyss Star showed deference to its master.
Therefore, upon hearing the youth’s invitation, he secretly instructed Linggu to accept the offer.
The two arrived at the outer courtyard, and Nie Chi glanced at the cave abode’s rear, completely obscured by Formation Restrictions, but did not attempt to pry any further.
"Fellow Nie, please."
Linggu brought out the Spiritual Fruit Spiritual Tea and spoke calmly.
"Thank you, Fellow Ling."
The young man hurriedly took it, expressing his gratitude to Linggu.

The two chatted casually, mainly the young man speaking, with Linggu occasionally giving his opinion.
Lu Xuan stayed quietly in the background, watching Nie Chi, who was tasting tea in the distance. On a whim, his mind momentarily focused on Nie Chi’s body.
"Hmm?"
He softly exclaimed.
A thought suddenly crossed his mind.
"Secret Demon, Outerworld Sky Demon, elusive and controlling the Secret Demon Division Technique, it can silently infiltrate and possess the target’s flesh body, assimilating the divine and mental essence, indistinguishable from ordinary people."
"The White Bone Palace cultivator in the cave abode’s outer courtyard is not just an Evil Cultivator but also an Outerworld Sky Demon?"
Lu Xuan was extremely surprised in his heart.
He slowly calmed his emotions and quietly pondered his strategy.
"I hadn’t realized the demons had infiltrated to this extent? Or had they already become the demons’ vassals?"
"However, the most pressing issue right now is how to deal with this matter."
While Linggu and the young man were talking, a strong impulse to kill flashed through Lu Xuan’s mind.
"To kill or to keep?"
"He represents the White Bone Palace, after all; his death within the disguised cave abode would be difficult to explain. As long as he hasn’t done anything to affect the disguised cultivation, I can spare his life for now."
His mind gradually leaned towards a decision.
"Besides, I must also be wary whether only this person is possessed by a Sky Demon or whether the entire White Bone Palace has been overtaken."
"If it’s the latter, then the so-called Myriad Bone Conference might be fraught with danger."
Lu Xuan thought to himself darkly, making the worst-case scenario plan.
Linggu had already accepted the invitation, but he could change his mind later, finding any excuse to brush it off.
"The White Bone Palace has invited mostly the Evil Cultivators from the Abyss Star Cave, and out of ten, at least nine have countless lives on their hands; losing a few would actually benefit the Cultivation World.
There’s no need to trouble myself with their safety."
Lu Xuan had no intention of getting involved in the messy affairs.
If it were happening in the Thunderfire Asterism Cave, where the cultivators he usually had good relations with were putting themselves at risk, he might have contemplated warning the Sky Star Cave in advance. But in the Abyss Star Cave, it was different.
As a Spirit Plant Master who rarely killed and was kind to people, he would rather the fewer Evil Cultivators in the world, the better.
"Fellow Ling, Nie Mou still has matters to attend to and cannot stay longer." Read new chapters at novelbuddy
"When the conference starts, I’ll have a good chat with you, fellow. Remember to come on time," the young man said as he stood up to speak to Linggu.
"Definitely."
Linggu responded briefly, his face expressionless.
"I apologize for not seeing you out."
He bowed to Nie Chi.
Once Nie Chi’s figure had completely disappeared, he quickly activated the two major Protective Arrays.
"Staying in the Abyss Star Cave is never peaceful; there’s always some Evil Cultivator trying to harm me," lamented Lu Xuan softly.
"On the other hand, it’s also a case of Evil Cultivators willingly turning up at my doorstep to become fertilizer."
His lips curled into a smile.
