A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of Lu Xuan's mouth.
"However, I ask Senior Brother Huo to keep it a secret for me, as to the fact that the fire spirit can be condensed from this mutant spirit plant."
He told Huo Lin'er.
"Junior brother Lu, please rest assured, I will definitely keep my mouth shut."
After learning that Lu Xuan exchanged the mutated spiritual plants in order to gain benefits for the sect, Huo Lin'er was completely relieved and nodded lightly.
"By the way, Junior Brother Lu, when I return to the camp this time, in addition to handing over the mutant spiritual plants picked by your sect and recuperating on the way, there is one more thing I need to ask of you."
Huo Lin'er said, taking out a square jade seal from the storage bag. Inside the almost transparent jade seal, there was a strip of light dark red silk grass.
"This mutant spiritual plant was recently discovered in an underground palace in the blessed land. Its whereabouts are extremely mysterious. Most of the foundation-building monks of the three sects are unable to detect it, which has caused us a lot of trouble."
"Its ability is extremely special and weird. It can silently and silently parasitize the monster monks, affecting their minds. In severe cases, it can even directly control the monks' bodies."
"We have tried many methods, but they are not very effective. Those talismans and other techniques to exorcise evil spirits and purify spirits have little effect on it."
"Please also ask Senior Brother Huo to let me take a look."
Lu Xuan took the sealed jade seal and observed it carefully.
The spiritual plant inside the jade seal is very slender, light and dark red, with no roots or leaves, only a winding silk. Sensing Lu Xuan's sight, the slender silk swam slowly like a poisonous snake, even if it was
Being blocked, he still made a strong attack stance.
"In terms of shape, it is indeed a bit weird, but I can't see anything new. I still need to study it carefully and experiment."
"However, junior brother, I have a question, and I would like to ask senior brother to clarify it."
"Junior Brother Lu, please speak."
"As far as I know, our sect has two Alchemy Masters who opened up the blessed land, and the other two sects probably have several more Alchemy Masters. Wouldn't it be easy to deal with these mutant spiritual plants without any effort?"
Lu Xuan looked confused.
"Junior brother Lu doesn't know something. If this mutant spiritual plant is found, it will be relatively easy to deal with, but the difficulty lies here."
"Master Jiedan focuses on cracking the restrictions on the blessed land, and will not spend too much energy to deal with these mutant spiritual plants. In addition, their range of activities is extremely wide, so we can only send three sects of foundation-building monks to deal with them."
There was a hint of bitterness in Huo Lin'er's smile.
"Several foundation-building monks have been accidentally parasitized by this strange spiritual plant. Fortunately, they were discovered in time, otherwise their lives may be in danger."
"It's okay."
Lu Xuan nodded, feeling lucky in his heart.
The monks who opened up the blessed land on the front line were basically in the middle and late stages of foundation building, but when they encountered this mutant spiritual plant, they were still invaded and parasitized by it without anyone noticing, almost endangering their lives, which shows how dangerous it is.
"It's better to stay behind and study spiritual plants with peace of mind, and buy and sell them."
He thought to himself and looked down at Huo Lin'er.
"Senior Brother Huo, I will study this weird spiritual plant as soon as possible, but I can't guarantee that there will be good results."
"If there is anything discovered that can help the sect, I will inform you as soon as possible, Senior Brother Huo."
Lu Xuan solemnly promised.
"Thank you for your hard work, Junior Brother Lu. I will be meeting up with my classmates in the next two days. If Junior Brother makes any important discoveries, you can message me."
Huo Lin'er was worried that Lu Xuan would not be able to learn too much information about Weird Spirit Plant in a short period of time, so he left a communication talisman and said goodbye.
Lu Xuan looked at the direction where the fiery red robe disappeared, opened his mouth slightly, but finally remained silent.
Senior brother, I can tell you now...
He muttered secretly in his heart.
Returning to his own small courtyard, he lowered his head and stared at the square jade seal in his hand, and carefully unlocked the restrictions on the surface of the jade seal.
The faint dark red silk grass suddenly turned into an extremely obscure red line and quickly rushed to Lu Xuan.
A "ding" sound.
The silk grass spiritual plant hit Lu Xuan's jade-like palm, and flew back at the same speed as if it hit an iron plate.
Under Lu Xuan's Eye-Breaking Technique, a light red silk thread fell to the ground, bounced up quickly, and continued to rush towards the demonic vine not far away.
Unable to break through the defense, it immediately changed its target and wanted to parasitize into the demon vine.
The gray vines were not surprised but happy, and a deep crack appeared on the vines, as if welcoming the light red thread.
There is actually delicious food delivered to your door, which surprises Yaogui Teng who likes to eat spiritual plants.
"Okay, I need some more, but I can't give it to you for the time being."
Lu Xuan floated in front of the demonic vine like a fleeting shadow, grabbed the dark red silk grass, and ignored its attempts to enter his body.
He casually laid down a ban, placed the strange spiritual plant into the spiritual soil covered by the ban, and violently poured a stream of spiritual rain into it.
With his mind concentrated, detailed information about this mutant spiritual plant flashed through his mind.
[Unknown spiritual plant, the third-grade dodder silk has mutated under the influence of some powerful flesh and blood force for a long time. It likes to be parasitic in the bodies of spiritual plants, monsters and even monks, sucking their spiritual energy, vitality, flesh and blood essence, etc., the deeper the degree of parasitism.
, and can even directly control the behavior of monster monks.】
[Normally living in the dark underground, when not parasitized, it is extremely sensitive to various special sound waves. Under the attack of sound wave spiritual power, it will involuntarily reveal its body shape and curl up into a small ball. 】
"The third-grade dodder silk threads were mutated..."
Lu Xuan murmured to himself.
There are countless strange and weird spiritual plants in the world of cultivation. Although he often reads the spiritual plant books in the Sutra Pavilion, this is the first time he has seen such a high-grade spiritual plant with strange habits.
"With this parasitic ability, it is rare to reach the third level."
"It's a pity that the Phantom Sound Bamboo remains in the cave, otherwise it can easily deal with these mutated dodder threads."
He sounded the fourth-grade phantom sound bamboo in the cave that could simulate various weird noises, and suddenly thought in his mind.
"Well, the task entrusted to me by Senior Brother Huo Lin'er has been completed. The biggest problem is not to understand this weird spiritual plant, but to consider when to inform him."
Lu Xuan was troubled. Telling him too early would not explain how he learned the information about the spiritual plant so quickly. It would attract attention and cause unnecessary trouble.
If it was too late, it might cause losses to the sect. Lu Xuan decided to wait a few days before contacting Huo Lin'er.
He sealed the dodder silk in the jade seal again, and saw the salivating demon vine beside his feet.
Gray mucus is left everywhere on the ground, which shows that it really wants to taste the taste of dodder.
"What, you want to eat? Don't worry, there will definitely be a chance for you to have a full meal."
Lu Xuan kicked the growing gray vines and said with a smile.
The demon ghost vine is not low in intelligence. After hearing Lu Xuan's words, the gray vines immediately rushed toward Lu Xuan.
"roll roll roll!"
Lu Xuan looked at the demon vine covered in mucus with disgust, his expression full of disgust.
