"Brother Lu, long time no see, how are you doing?"
Zhang Hong smiled brightly and greeted Lu Xuan.
"Thank you, Brother Zhang, for your concern. Everything is going well. I would like to congratulate Brother Zhang for returning safely from the wilderness."
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
"Haha, I was lucky, I only suffered a little injury, and I was lucky enough to get some treasures."
"This time, I have to say thank you to Brother Lu."
"I heard from my mother-in-law that there was a pest infestation in the house before, and it was all thanks to Brother Lu to help you solve it."
"And that little bastard, he has been showing off to me since he came back, saying that he can earn spirit stones now, and he still wants to use the spirit stones he earned to support his family!"
Thinking of Zhang Xiuyuan's smug look, Zhang Hong laughed.
"Brother Zhang, you're welcome. You helped me so much before. What I did is nothing."
"As for Xiao Yuan, he saved me a lot of time and unnecessary trouble, and it's appropriate to give him some reward."
"He's a brat, what can he do!"
"Brother Lu, you surprised me this time. I thought you would only farm steadily, but I didn't expect you to have such a sword art."
"Only relying on it, Brother Lu, you can outperform many monks at the third level of Qi training."
Zhang Hong exclaimed.
Now that Lu Xuan was covered by the method of restraining his breath, he was not worried that Zhang Hong would be able to detect his true cultivation.
"The spiritual fields in my courtyard were the first batch to encounter insect infestation. It took me nearly seven spiritual stones and hired a mid-level Qi training monk to solve it."
"In order to prevent this from happening again, I spent all my money and bought a first-grade sword art. I didn't expect that the progress of spiritual power in ordinary practice is slow, but I have some talents in the practice of sword art."
"Sword Jue is progressing very fast, even to the point where it can help people solve pests. I also want to earn some spirit stones from it, and earn back the cost of spirit stones that I bought it as soon as possible."
Lu Xuan made up a reason, explaining that he could use the Gengjin Sword Art to solve the ins and outs of the pest infestation.
Zhang Hong had no doubt about him.
The two talked for a while, and naturally talked about Zhang Hong's experience of reclaiming the secret realm this time.
"The Formation Master of the Wang family broke two formations. According to the mid-level Qi training monks who entered the depths of the secret realm, the area of this new secret realm is no smaller than Linyangfang City, and there are countless spiritual plants and spiritual medicines in it."
"We casual practitioners on the second and third levels of Qi training are only active in the periphery, and we have no skills and are not qualified to enter the deeper depths of the secret realm."
"I mainly follow a team of casual cultivators, collect spiritual plants, and clean up some low-level monsters."
"Although there are big monks from the Wang family standing in the front, it is said that the casualties this time are still not small, about 30%."
"Our team was lucky, but we encountered two dangerous situations. One time when we were collecting spiritual plants, we encountered a alienated spiritual plant. It was extremely aggressive and good at camouflage. Two people died accidentally. ."
"Another time, I encountered a special monster, a spider with a human face on its back. It was so fast that I couldn't see the figure clearly. A casual cultivator was directly cut into two by its limbs. The first monk came in time to destroy it."
Thinking of these two encounters, Zhang Hong couldn't help but turn pale, with a look of lingering fear, which shows that the shadow left behind is not small.
Lu Xuan who was on the side listened with gusto, anyway, he didn't have to experience it himself, and it would be very good to be able to pass the ear addiction.
"Why, little brother Lu is interested in going for a walk? Opening up a new secret realm, the first time the benefits are the greatest, the risks are also the greatest, and it will be reduced later on."
"Of course, it's just the periphery of the secret realm. I don't know what's going on inside."
Seeing Lu Xuan's interested look, Zhang Hong invited with a smile.
"No, no, my cultivation level is low, I'm not good at fighting skills, and I don't have magic tools and talismans with me, so I should just be a spirit planter honestly."
he said with a smile.
The spiritual strength accumulated by the white light group and the magic tools, talismans, elixirs, etc. brought by it are still too little. If you round it up, it can be said to be 'none'.
Zhang Hong just mentioned it casually and skipped it.
"By the way, Brother Zhang, have you harvested any unknown wild spirit species in your trip to the wilderness secret realm this time? If there are, I can buy them with spirit stones."
Lu Xuan changed the subject and asked.
"Unknown wild spirit species? Wild spirit species are rare, and unknown species are even rarer."
"I haven't encountered it myself. It's just that I heard that a casual cultivator found a wild spirit species in a barren place in the secret realm. I will help you to ask about it then."
"It's just that the type of spiritual seed is unknown, and the cultivation method is unknown. Brother Lu, if you want to plant it, it is very risky, and it is likely to waste time and spiritual stones."
Hearing Lu Xuan's question, Zhang Hong couldn't help but persuade him.
"I just want to experiment, not to gamble on the slightest possibility of success."
"If you fail, you can also accumulate some experience in cultivating spiritual plants and broaden your horizons."
Lu Xuan found an excuse to prevaricate.
"Okay! I'll help you find out!"
Zhang Hong nodded and said.
He was very efficient, and two days later, he brought good news.
In Zhang's courtyard.
He introduced to Lu Xuan a bald monk who practiced Qi at the third level.
"This is Fellow Daoist Long, with strong strength."
"This is little brother Lu. He has some talent in planting spiritual plants. That is him. He wants to know about the unknown spiritual seed in the hands of fellow daoists."
Zhang Hong introduced Lu Xuan and the bald monk to know each other, and soon got to the point.
"I found this spiritual seed from a barren land outside the secret realm. At that time, I found more than ten wild spiritual seeds. The deacon of the Wang family rewarded me with one."
"It's just that I haven't figured out what kind it is, but based on the place where it was discovered at that time, it should not be lower than the first grade."
"If Brother Lu wants it, take the five spirit stones."
The bald monk said directly.
Lu Xuan took the spirit seed in his hand and looked at it carefully.
The shape of the spirit seed is like a small fungus, dark red in color, with blood vessels on the surface, and a viscous substance flowing slightly.
"The price of five spirit stones is not expensive. It was the price when I got the Chiyun pine."
"However, judging by the strangeness of this spiritual species, its grade and rarity are definitely not weaker than the red cloud pine. If you know the specific species, the price must be much higher than the red cloud pine."
Lu Xuan thought in his heart and quickly made a decision.
"Fellow Daoist Long, I want this Spirit Seed."
"Brother Lu is refreshing."
The two exchanged the spirit stone with one hand and the spirit seed with the other, each showing a little smile.
The bald monk was happy that an unknown wild spiritual seed could bring him five spiritual stones, while Lu Xuan was because there was another rare spiritual plant in the spiritual field.
And more importantly, the white light cluster brought by the maturity of Lingzhi.
When he returned home, he operated the ground induction technique, and vacated a small spiritual field, where he planted the dark red fungus.
With his mind concentrated, Lingzhi's detailed information flashed through his mind.
"Dark Sui Zhi, a second-grade spiritual plant, can be used to refine certain body-refining pills when mature, or it can be taken directly to strengthen the monk's physique."
"A spiritual plant that grows in the dark does not need light or spiritual rain. It just wants to stay in the dark and be accompanied by decaying spiritual trees."
