You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 294: Unorthodox Actions

The sound of rushing water, from far to near, gradually intensified.

Looking into the distance, hundreds of sea beasts of various shapes rushed towards the sea area designated by the Song family.

Some sea turtles moved like arrows, floating on the surface of the water at lightning speed. Some sea creatures with suction cups on their feet leaped up to ten zhang with a single jump, while others like Flood Dragons and Fish Spirits appeared and disappeared on the water's surface, rapidly approaching.

Their auras were mostly at the level of first or second-grade demonic beasts, but their sheer numbers were overwhelming. Song Yu and other Song family cultivators stood ready, holding talismans and artifacts, closely watching the approaching multitude of sea beasts.

"Attack!"

As the sea beasts neared the first defense line set up by the Song family, Song Yu gave the command.

Instantly, talismans in the hands of hundreds of cultivators were activated in succession, and countless ice spears, arrows, and spikes rained down upon the sea beasts.

Some sea beasts resisted with their robust bodies, others evaded with agility, while some retaliated with water-based spells. For a moment, various spells filled the air, and the water's surface churned incessantly.

Thanks to the Song family's thorough preparations, the first wave of talismanic attacks caused heavy casualties among the sea beasts. Many were severely wounded or killed outright, staining a large area of the sea red with blood.

However, despite the casualties, the sheer number of sea beasts meant that they quickly adapted after the initial onslaught. Ferociously, they charged towards the Song family cultivators.

Under the relentless waves of sea beast attacks, the cultivators began to falter. In less than a moment, it was evident that they were at a significant disadvantage, and the defense line was on the verge of collapse.

"Sharpening a sword for a thousand days, only to use it in battle for a moment."

With a solemn expression, Lu Xuan held the ancient sword sheath, gazing at the sea beasts rampaging in the sea.

Finally, under the fierce assault of a giant sea beast, several Song family cultivators were pushed back, and a breach appeared in the defense line. In an instant, more than twenty sea beasts surged in.

"Trouble!" Song Yu, who had been monitoring the situation closely, saw the breach and exclaimed. He was about to rush over to assist.

A sharp sound of swords rang out.

In the ears of the cultivators and sea beasts present, there was a sudden explosion, and a deep purple electric light streaked across.

In the midst of lightning and thunder, the Purple Thunder Sword pierced directly into the head of a sea beast. At the gaping hole, electric sparks danced merrily, completely charring the sea beast's head.

The Purple Thunder Sword itself was among the top tier of third-grade flying swords, imbued with the power of lightning. After being nurtured in the mysterious Ancient Sword Sheath for so long, with a burst of energy, it effortlessly dispatched more than twenty sea beasts in an instant.

"Many thanks to Senior Uncle Lu for timely assistance."

Not far away, Song Yu's face was filled with gratitude. Although it was only the first defense line that had been breached, if these sea beasts were not swiftly dealt with, allowing them to hunt the Empty Abyss Spirit Fish in the waters unchecked, the losses would be substantial.

"It's my duty."

Lu Xuan replied calmly.

"Keep an eye on the surroundings. If you notice any disciples from other families struggling to withstand the onslaught, relieve their pressure in time."

"Yes!" Song Yu quickly agreed.

He glanced at the more than twenty sea beast corpses floating on the water's surface nearby, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Since Lu Xuan arrived on the Empty Abyss Island, he had mostly stayed in the courtyard with the spiritual field, immersing himself in cultivating spiritual plants.

In such circumstances, Song Yu subconsciously thought of Lu Xuan as merely a Sect inner disciple who was passionate about spiritual plants. Outwardly, he maintained respect, but unknowingly, he underestimated him.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xuan's combat power far exceeded his imagination. With just one strike, he effortlessly dealt with more than twenty sea beasts.

"Truly a scion of a prestigious family, his cultivation and swordsmanship are not comparable to those of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators."

Song Yu sighed inwardly, snapping back to reality instantly, as he watched the ongoing battles across the sea surface, feeling much more at ease.

Next, Lu Xuan remained in the rear, observing the situation. Whenever Song family cultivators were in urgent need, he swiftly rushed to their aid, effortlessly dispatching several sea beasts in a matter of moments.

Gradually, the situation stabilized. Over a hundred sea beasts perished in a short time, their momentum weakening.

"Hmm? Some are still cunning."

Lu Xuan uttered a soft sound of surprise as he sensed a disturbance. Immediately, a faint blue pearl, glowing with spiritual light, flew out of his storage pouch and hovered in front of him.

It was the Waterwalking Pearl that allowed him to move freely in deep waters.

Descending continuously, Lu Xuan landed on the seabed. Protected by the Waterwalking Pearl, he moved freely, unaffected by the deep sea pressure.

With his spiritual sense, he detected dozens of second-grade sea beasts lurking underwater, swiftly approaching him.

In the dim depths, Lu Xuan's Purple Thunder Sword transformed into a purple light and shot towards the sea beasts.

Like a snake lying in wait for a long time, it instantly struck, penetrating the heads of three second-grade sea beasts.

The remaining sea beasts, agitated by this, charged ferociously at Lu Xuan.

With a cold snort, Lu Xuan's Purple Thunder Sword swiftly turned back, stabbing at the nearest armored sea beast.

Simultaneously, the Xun-Lei Sword Pellet in his dantian spun rapidly, countless deep black sword energies surging out from his dantian. Like a school of fish, they swam through graceful arcs, rushing towards the sea beasts at the periphery.

A white bone sphere rolled out of his storage pouch. Controlled by Lu Xuan's mind, it instantly transformed into a white bone spear, with bone propellers at the tip, shooting towards the remaining sea beasts like lightning.

Just as the sea beasts thought they could easily evade, the bone spear's tip suddenly split open, like a flower blooming in an instant. The petals continued to unfurl and extend, quickly forming a bone net.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Over a dozen sea beasts, caught off guard, were ensnared within the bone net.

As the net rapidly tightened, the net threads turned into slender bone spikes, deeply piercing the sea beasts' bodies.

With the power of the fourth-grade White Bone Demon Puppet, dealing with second-grade demonic beast bodies was effortless.

In a short time, under the combined force of the Purple Thunder Sword, the Xun-Lei sword energies, and the White Bone Demon Puppet, all the sea beasts attempting to sneak up from the seabed were eliminated.

Looking at the sea floor littered with corpses, Lu Xuan floated down, and the Purple Thunder Sword plucked out the eyeballs of each sea beast one by one.

"Fresh demonic beast eyeballs mustn't be wasted."

Lu Xuan continued to ponder the Spirit-Eyes Ghostwood in his spiritual field. There were already existing eyeballs available for nourishment.

"Hmm... removing all the eyeballs of the sea beasts doesn't seem like something a righteous cultivator would do..."

Underwater, dozens of sea beast corpses with dark eye sockets scattered in all directions, presenting a gruesome sight.

If seen by Song family cultivators, it might lead to unfavorable assumptions.

Thinking quickly, Lu Xuan's mind sparked with inspiration. The White Bone Demon Puppet transformed into a long white stick, with bone propellers at its tip, swiftly spinning as it shot towards the heads of the sea beast corpses on the ocean floor.

Numerous heads exploded under the tremendous force, their hard skulls shattering, leaving behind headless corpses.

"This looks much more normal. At most, they'll wonder if I have some brutal method, but they definitely won't suspect that I secretly took all the eyeballs."

Since concealing the issue was impossible, Lu Xuan opted to eradicate it directly.

Looking at the dozens of headless corpses on the seabed, Lu Xuan thought to himself.
