Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 195 I Am Inherently Kind (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

Cultivating Yin-Devouring Demon Insects is not a simple matter.

It's forbidden, but it consumes a huge amount of monster meat and Yin spirits.

Hatching also consumes the cultivator's own essence and blood.

When wielding it, one must differentiate a vast amount of divine consciousness to control it.

Otherwise, you risk being devoured by the demonic insects.

How could he know?

After plundering the essence and blood of so many demonic beasts, Shen Xuan's essence and blood were of extremely high quality.

One drop is equivalent to more than ten drops for an ordinary cultivator.

His spiritual sense was comparable to that of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

A mere few thousand Yin-devouring demonic insects were not a heavy burden for him.

It's not as burdensome as the Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast.

"Since we're already here, why rush to leave!"

Master Black Bone desperately fled.

To unleash a secret technique, one must not hesitate to consume one's own magical essence.

A soft sigh came from Shen Xuan's ear.

Look up.

A majestic golden-clawed eagle extended its steel-hook-like golden claws and grabbed at the head in mid-air.

Suddenly, I felt really unwell.

A sharp pain!
The spiritual energy stagnated.

A chill ran through my heart.

It felt as if a gentle breeze was blowing.

Lower your head.

A bloody hole appeared in his heart!
Then, a [Wrath of Thor] struck his body.

Where the electric arc flashed, a patch of charred blackness remained.

The air was filled with the aroma of meat.

"Taiyin Corpse Refining Technique! You are a disciple of the Corpse Refining Sect!"

Even after closing his eyes, Master Black Bone still couldn't understand how Shen Xuan, a disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect, knew the secret teachings of the Corpse Refining Sect.

Shen Xuan didn't have time to answer his question.

Store the remains of the Black Bone Master, the storage bag, and the magical artifacts.

His figure flashed, heading towards the black warship.

At this moment, the third leader of the thief sect realized that the eldest leader and the second brother had perished.

Otherwise, there would have been some activity.

Even the Black Bone Master of the Netherworld Sect was easily killed by Shen Xuan in mid-air.

He didn't even want the black warship anymore.

He jumped into the sea alone, trying to escape by water escape.

What came into view was a silver-winged serpent.

The powerful water pressure bound the third brother tightly.

In the water, his rudimentary water escape technique was no match for the Silver-Winged Teng Snake's pursuit.

In just a few breaths, it was swallowed by the Silver-Winged Teng Snake and bitten to death.

Then, a fleeting blue shadow appeared.

They took away the third brother's dismembered body, storage bag, and magic weapon.

When Shen Xuan appeared on the deck of the black warship.

More than thirty pirates, their faces filled with terror, scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing for their lives.

But where can they escape to!
More than a dozen dark spirit fish shot out from Shen Xuan's body, making a series of whooshing sounds as they weaved through the pirates and cultivators.

The harvest was completed in just a few breaths.

A few lucky ones jumped into the sea.

Before they could even feel relieved, the Silver Winged Serpent stirred up a giant wave, sweeping them back onto the deck of the black warship.

The golden-clawed eagle descended from the sky.

With its steel-hook-like golden claws, it can grab one person at a time, and those struck by it will die on the spot.

"Now it's quiet!"

Looking at the corpses of pirates scattered all over the deck.

Shen Xuan was in a dilemma.

He hadn't yet learned how to steer the black warship.

There was no one to help him deal with so many corpses on the deck.

These Qi Refining cultivators are not wealthy.

However, the sheer number of them was overwhelming.

How could Shen Xuan bear to give it up?

Finally, we pulled off a big one.

How can we waste it so easily!

"Thank goodness for the Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast!"

Shen Xuan acquired the Silver-Winged Teng Snake and the Golden-Clawed Divine Eagle Corpse Beast.

He stood on the deck, commanding the Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast to drag the black warship towards the direction of the Haicheng Gu family.

……

The ancient family's warships are returning to port.

At that moment, an alarm was sounded from the lookout tower.

Gu Yingjie looked around.

He Qing's black warship is heading this way.

"What is that Sea-Purifying Dragon up to now!"

Peers are enemies.

Gu Jia and He Qing were all smiling, but secretly they were all pulling out knives.

If one side is injured, the other side will not hesitate to take advantage of the situation. The reason why a full-scale war has not broken out is because the two sides are evenly matched, with little difference in strength, and neither side can swallow the other.

Even if we win, it will come at a heavy price, making it a losing proposition.

"what?"

Upon receiving the warning from the Azure Wind Fox, the head of the Gu family's expression changed.

"Be careful and on guard!"

The head of the Gu family personally stood at the very front of the deck.

In sight.

The movement of the black warship was very abnormal.

Take a closer look.

It's not powered by the kinetic energy of the spirit stone at all.

Instead, it was a gigantic shadow octopus, dragging a black warship as it rode the waves.

opposite.

A figure in a green robe appeared; it was none other than Shen Xuan, who had taken his leave not long ago.

Gu Yingjie stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Only then did he realize it.

The deck of the black warship was littered with the corpses of pirates who had robbed and destroyed the ship.

"Shen Xuan, the talisman master Shen, he single-handedly killed He Qing and the rest of them?"

Gu Yingjie looked at his father.

The head of the Gu family nodded slowly.

The two exchanged a glance.

They each noticed the fear in the other's eyes.

This Shen Xuan is definitely not as refined and cultured as he appears on the surface!

With a single strike, he unleashed a thunderous barrage, annihilating everyone without leaving a single one alive!
The black warship is approaching.

Gu's father saw it all clearly.

The entire raiding warship was annihilated; not a single survivor remained.

"Brother Gu, we meet again! Could you do me a favor?"

"Fellow Daoist Shen, please speak!"

Shen Xuan sighed deeply.

"I was originally returning to Yunyuan Immortal City. For some reason, the people on this warship caught up with me, directly used their spiritual energy bubbles to target and lock onto me, and demanded that I hand over my magic treasures and storage bags."

"Brother Gu Dao, could these people be the legendary pirates who raid cultivators?"

"Among them are demonic cultivators from the Netherworld Sect!"

At this point, Shen Xuan seemed a little embarrassed.

"Brother Gu Dao knows me well. I've never been good at fighting. Fortunately, I once obtained a secret manual of magic and used it to refine some corpse beasts. That's how I managed to escape with my life."

"However, with so many cultivators undergoing tribulation, as well as demonic cultivators, and this warship, I, Shen, have no way to deal with them."

At this point, Shen Xuan smiled.

"Luckily, I ran into Brother Gu. He can help me get rid of this, how about it?"

The Gu family head said solemnly, "I would be honored to accept your offer!"

Shen Xuan's suggestion was exactly what the Gu family head had expected.

At this moment, the Gu family head realized that the talisman master Shen Xuan in front of him was a hidden evil star.

Decisive and ruthless in killing.

She just happens to like to act all weak and vulnerable.

"Please wait a moment, Fellow Daoist Shen."

"it is good!"

In front of all the cultivators from the Gu family, Shen Xuan took in the Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast.

He then flew onto the Gu family's warship.

The head of the Gu family personally accompanied Shen Xuan to the captain's cabin, where he boiled water and brewed tea for him.

Shen Xuan inquired about He Qing's power situation.

The head of the Gu family answered each question one by one.

"So, He Qing's gang of pirates didn't actually have a strong background when they robbed cultivators?"

"Fellow Daoist Shen is joking. Pirates robbing cultivators, where would they get such a powerful background!"

The head of the Gu family shook his head and said, "They wouldn't admit it while they were alive, and they'll shirk responsibility even after they're dead!"

"That's right!"

Shen Xuan quickly figured out the key points.

There are easily several groups of pirates like He Qing who rob cultivators.

In professions with no entry barriers, competition is fierce, and no one is irreplaceable.

The ancient cultivators are experts.

An hour later, the Gu family head had a list in his hand.

Shen Xuan took the list and glanced at it briefly.

The thirty-odd pirates who raided the cultivators only had a little over seven thousand spirit stones; they were indeed very poor.

All those magical artifacts, elixirs, and talismans, in total, were estimated to cost only 18,000 spirit stones.

I have to say, they're a bunch of penniless bastards!
The big one is a pirate warship.

It was almost undamaged and valued at 90,000 spirit stones.

"Fine!"

Shen Xuan did not bargain.

The head of the Gu family is a smart man.

Having witnessed his methods, I doubt he'll try to drive the price down too much.

Shen Xuan smiled as he took the storage bag filled with spirit stones.

“Brother Gu, I remember that the Qingyun Sect has bounties for demonic cultivators and pirates who rob cultivators.”
