The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 433

A day later, Chu Xuan received two Fire Cloud Mushrooms from several cultivators. These spirit plants were similar to ordinary mushrooms, but entirely crimson in color, especially the caps, which resembled a fiery cloud, hence the name Fire Cloud Mushroom.

Fire spirits had an intense craving for this plant, though they hadn't yet reached the level of obsession, where they would do anything to get it. First, this was because the mushrooms had not aged enough. Only a hundred-year-old Fire Cloud Mushroom could attract fire spirits. A five-hundred-year-old mushroom would draw a large number of fire spirits.

Chu Xuan estimated that a thousand-year-old Fire Cloud Mushroom would be the key to attracting the attention of the Fire Spirit King.

Additionally, the correct preparation of incense powder was needed to truly create a beast-luring scent that would stir the fire spirits into a frenzy. However, thousand-year-old Fire Cloud Mushrooms were extremely rare.

The two mushrooms Chu Xuan acquired were of one hundred and two hundred years of age. For an ordinary cultivator, there would be no way to hasten the growth of the mushrooms. But Chu Xuan was no ordinary cultivator.

He returned to Blue Star, planting the mushrooms in the soil of Merit and surrounding them with a number of Fire Spirit Crystals. These crystals, derived from fire spirits, were the condensed energy of their fiery essence. They were invaluable to cultivators with a fire spirit root, those practicing fire-based cultivation techniques, or those crafting fire-related magical treasures.

By using so many Fire Spirit Crystals, Chu Xuan had artificially created a fire-spiritual Qi-rich environment. With the influence of the Merit Soil, the growth rate of the Fire Cloud Mushrooms was greatly accelerated.

Ten days later, the two-hundred-year-old mushroom had grown significantly larger. Its color had changed from a bright red to a purple-red hue, resembling a fire that had burned for a thousand years and was now on the verge of extinction. This was the appearance of a thousand-year-old Fire Cloud Mushroom.

Chu Xuan was satisfied and quickly harvested the mushroom, preparing to concoct the beast-luring incense.

Though incense powder and pills were not the same, they shared a similar principle. As a cultivator skilled in both alchemy and poison arts, Chu Xuan quickly grasped the technique after only a few failures, successfully crafting a small bottle of Fire Spirit Beast-Luring Incense.

"Hmm? Why does the Merit Soil look withered?"

Chu Xuan, noticing the state of the Merit Soil in the glass jar, immediately felt that it seemed to have lost its vitality, much like a cucumber that lacked water.

"Could it be that hastening the growth of these two Fire Cloud Mushrooms drained too much of the soil's fertility?" he mused.

That seemed plausible. Even in cultivation, the principle of energy conservation applied. The Merit Soil was able to hasten the growth of the mushrooms because it contained an immense amount of fertility. Now, after hastening the growth of both the Fire Cloud Mushrooms and the Spiritual Shadow Root, the soil's energy had probably been depleted.

"Next time there's a Merit Rain, I'll bring you along," Chu Xuan chuckled lightly, striding forward to return to the Starshatter Sea.

One day, Chu Xuan rubbed his chin thoughtfully, feeling a bit of a headache. "I've got the things I need... but how do I sprinkle the beast-luring incense on him without him noticing?"

Although the other person was shameless, he was still a Deity Transformation cultivator. Getting the incense on him without being discovered would definitely be a bit tricky.

Just then, a booming sound echoed from outside. It sounded like two cultivators were fighting in mid-air, and judging by the intensity, the battle was bound to be fierce.

Without a second thought, the cultivators inside Chu Xuan's shop dropped their demonic talismans and rushed out to watch the commotion.

Chu Xuan shook his head. "Young people, always so eager to watch the drama. What's so interesting about it? What if they get caught in the crossfire?"

"It's a battle between two Deity Transformation cultivators!" one of the onlookers exclaimed in surprise.

Chu Xuan raised an eyebrow and quickly rushed out, moving with speed.

"A battle between Deity Transformation cultivators? Where? Where?" he wondered as he scanned the sky. Sure enough, two figures were engaged in a fierce duel, riding their spiritual weapons, clashing with an incessant sound of metal and energy.

"That person on the left, wearing a stark white robe, thin and bony—looks like White Bone True Master!" someone in the crowd said.

"And the one on the right, who is he? I've never seen this Deity Transformation cultivator before."

"Yeah, I've never seen this one either. Could he be from the East or West Third Ring?"
