In a dark cave somewhere, a pair of eyes were shining brightly. At the same time, there was a small transparent bead the size of a thumb floating in the dark cave. The small bead was rippling with circles of magic power.
"Magic Bead!" Lu Xiaotian was in the cave, using the Spirit Eye Technique. The cultivators of the clans who sealed off the small lake found nothing. They were puzzled. They came to the conclusion that the Magic Bead was secretly taken away by a member of a certain clan, so it could avoid being searched.
After all, those loose cultivators had already checked, and the Magic Bead couldn't be refined in a short period of time. If someone swallowed it, it would definitely be found. Therefore, all the clans were suspicious of each other and almost fought. However, no one could be sure who secretly took the Magic Bead, so the fight ended without a conclusion.
The loose cultivators by the small lake also dispersed. There was still some time before the big sects recruited disciples. They still had to search for spiritual herbs, spiritual ores, and so on. The crystal toad and the Magic Bead were just a topic for them to talk about in their leisure time.
No one could have expected that Lu Xiaotian's body actually had another world, and he took it out without anyone noticing. At this moment, he was excitedly looking at the small bead that was enough to make countless people go crazy. It was undoubtedly a priceless treasure. If it appeared in the market of Full Moon City, it would probably immediately cause a sensation and sell at an unimaginable price. It wouldn't be difficult to exchange it for a Foundation Establishment Pill. After all, the rarity of the Magic Bead was far from being comparable to a Foundation Establishment Pill.
However, this thought only flashed through his mind before it was quickly dispelled by Lu Xiaotian. Even a fool knew the consequences of a three-year-old child holding a gold ingot on the street. The cruelty of the cultivation world was far more bloody than the battles in the secular world. He was only a cultivator in the middle stage of cultivation with no background. Once the news of him holding the Magic Bead spread, he would probably be killed by others before he could get a large amount of wealth. How could he occupy a treasure that even a powerful expert like Jin Dan couldn't get?
Since that was the case, he could only use it himself. Lu Xiaotian felt a little complacent in his heart. He was going to enjoy the treasure that so many people had failed to snatch. This kind of feeling was indescribable to outsiders.
Lu Xiaotian opened his mouth and swallowed the magic bead into his stomach. He closed his eyes and meditated. The magic bead sank all the way into his dantian, appearing somewhat abrupt. Lu Xiaotian mobilized the essence qi in his dantian and enveloped the magic bead. Withdrawing his divine sense, he saw that the magic bead in his Dantian seemed to have five hidden compartments. Now, his vital qi was trying to enter the first hidden compartment.
He sat there for several days. Three days later, the magic bead and dantian had completely fused into one. Lu Xiaotian suddenly opened his eyes. If it weren't for the fact that he was still in the mountains and was afraid of attracting the attention of other cultivators with ill intentions, he would have long since laughed out loud.
"Let's test the power of the magic bead first." Lu Xiaotian thought for a moment and released a few head ants. Because they had been raised by the strange people for too long, these head ants were used to sucking human blood. They hadn't eaten for several days and appeared to be very irritable. As soon as they were released, two or three of them tore at each other. Two of them ran out of the cave, and two of them pounced at Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian smiled slightly and extended his right index finger, pointing at the air. A circle of ripples spread out from his index finger. It sounded like the whistling of the icy plains, but also like the crisp sound of flowing water hitting a rock.
Ever since Lu Xiaotian refined the magic bead and used his vital qi to enter the first compartment of the magic bead, he had learned a new technique. Thus, he comprehended a spell called "Ice Soul Mystic Melody".
It could directly affect a person's divine sense through sound waves, causing them to fall into a chaotic and evil state. Then, it would create an opportunity for the caster to attack.
He had just refined the magic bead, so he used these head ants to test its effect.
As the ripples spread out, the bodies of the head ants affected by the ripples became sluggish, and they fell from the air to the ground with a thud. Lu Xiaotian was overjoyed. It was quite effective against these weak spiritual insects. And because it was the magic bead's own technique, the consumption of spiritual power and divine sense was even lower than a beginner level technique.
In the next few days, Lu Xiaotian was constantly familiarizing himself with the usage of the Ice Soul Mystic Melody. But he found that this technique only had an obvious effect on cultivators and monsters whose strength was not higher than his own. It didn't have much attack power against people whose cultivation was higher than his. It didn't even have a slight effect of slowing them down. The reason why the Crystal Toad could affect hundreds of loose cultivators in an instant was because the Crystal Toad was a fourth rank monster. It was incomparably powerful compared to loose cultivators.
Lu Xiaotian smiled bitterly. It seemed that this awakened magic bead didn't seem to have awakened a very powerful ability. But it was better to have more skills than nothing. At least against insect cultivators, this move was more effective than any powerful technique.
After familiarizing himself with the use of the magic bead, Lu Xiaotian began to act like other loose cultivators. He spent most of his energy looking for spiritual items required by the sect's mission. During this period, he would occasionally clash with other loose cultivators. But Lu Xiaotian was very careful. He would always try his best to avoid being besieged.
The sun drilled into the thick clouds, and the line of sight was dark. Under an ancient tree in the sand, a few stalks of spiritual grass swayed with the wind. A black shadow quickly jumped under the shade of the tree. Its figure was still somewhat blurry. The black shadow quickly stretched out its hand towards the stalks of spiritual grass.
Whoosh! A large net fell from the sky, trapping the black shadow.
"The net caught him!" In the midst of excited voices, several cultivators jumped out of the sand cave they had disguised themselves in, each holding a sword. They guarded the surroundings of the spiritual net. Just as they were about to kill the deceived cultivator in the spiritual net, they suddenly found that the person in the net suddenly shattered. Like a splash of water, it scattered into countless depths and then disappeared.
"What's going on? Where is he? "
"Damn it, someone is playing tricks. So cunning, I'm so angry!" Another person cursed angrily.
"Idiot, only you are allowed to set traps to harm people, but others are not allowed to use tricks?" Behind a huge rock hundreds of feet away, Lu Xiaotian carefully watched all of this. It was indeed another trap. The other party had more people. It seemed that these stalks of spiritual grass were hopeless.
Lu Xiaotian sighed. This black shadow was a shadow clone that he condensed with his magic power after learning the "Shadow Puppet Technique". Because he had just learned it, the shape of this shadow clone was still very blurry. From afar, it looked like a black shadow. If it was the Sun Sky, any loose cultivator with low cultivation would be able to see through it at a glance. But today's gloomy weather and the background under the ancient tree created relatively good conditions for him. Coupled with his rather fast speed, the ambushing group fell for it.
Lu Xiaotian was about to leave, but his luck was not bad. Another team also took a fancy to these stalks of spiritual grass. When they sent people over to pick them, they fought with the small teams that were lying in ambush. Both sides suffered several casualties and were locked in a fierce battle. Lu Xiaotian's heart was itching. Taking advantage of the fact that the two teams were preoccupied, he secretly approached them and used his fastest speed to pick one stalk. Then, he ran away.
