Lu Xuan almost exclaimed and hurriedly concealed the joy on his face.
He didn't expect that such a strange stone he picked up in the secret realm and planted it in boredom would turn out to be a third-grade spiritual seed that entered a dormant state.
You must know that among the spiritual plants he has planted so far, only Huanyan Luoguo and Jiaovine are at the third-grade stage, and they were all obtained through abnormal channels.
"The ghost-faced stone mushroom feeds on resentful souls. Whether it's the name or the way it's grown, it sounds like something from the underworld."
However, in front of the third level, whether it is the underworld or not is completely unimportant.
He was about to put the Ghost-faced Stone Mushroom into his storage bag when his movements suddenly froze.
He retracted his arm and pretended to look around casually.
More than a dozen spiritual planters are looking for ways to identify normal Asparagus grass. Three of them are near Lu Xuan. Of the two high-level qi-training monks from the Wang family, only Li Jianfeng, who has a centipede scar on his face, is standing on a high place overlooking it.
Everyone.
He suddenly exclaimed and picked the ghost-faced stone mushroom from the crack.
"Huh? What is this? Why does it look so weird?"
"There is only one possibility. The Wang family monks don't know what this stone with a strange face is!"
After listening for a long time, my spiritual consciousness did not detect anything strange.
He chuckled, took out a Yuan-Pei Dan from his storage bag, and quickly replenished his spiritual power.
"That's it. I thought it was some good treasure! It turns out it's a junk thing."
"The secret realm was discovered and cultivated by the Wang family. The asparagus grass here also belongs to the Wang family. Therefore, I decided to dedicate it to the Wang family."
Half a moment later, it reappeared in the house unknowingly.
Lu Xuan practiced for several days, took out the cloud-walking lynx and let it out, then lay down on the wooden bed to rest early.
"I went out and found a second-grade monster, and I solved it along the way. I also found a few first-grade spiritual plants, and the harvest was pretty good."
The monks of the Wang family discovered the existence of this strange stone when they entered this place.
Lu Xuan, who had been sleeping soundly on the wooden bed for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes bright.
During this period, there were also spiritual plant masters who continued to use various techniques to cultivate spiritual plants and stimulated them, and found some mutated long beards that tried to attack.
He quietly circulated his spiritual power, seeping into the thin dark golden hidden spirit cloak worn inside.
Some of the many spiritual planters are still discussing how to identify it quickly and effectively, while some directly go back to their houses to practice.
Lu Xuan and other spiritual planters completed the work of identification and separation, returned to the camp, had dinner, and returned to their own houses.
Li Jianfeng nodded.
There may be some remaining and undiscovered Ghost Faced Stone Mushrooms, and he plans to take them away gradually and unknowingly while staying here.
At first, I thought it was some kind of rare treasure, so I brought a few pieces back to Wang's house. I studied it carefully for a while, and even asked a monk from Wanbao Pavilion who specializes in identifying various treasures, but I didn't find any mystery.
When Lu Xuan heard this, he couldn't hide the disappointment on his face and casually threw the ghost-faced stone mushroom in his hand to the ground.
The spiritual planter next to him heard this and looked over curiously. Not far away, the scar-faced monk Li Jianfeng's eyes also fell on Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan vaguely felt that something was wrong.
He was holding a ghost-faced stone mushroom in his hand, and the corners of his mouth were raised.
A whole afternoon passed, and progress was slow. I couldn't find a good way to distinguish the normal Astilina from the mutant Astilina.
Looking for the reason for the normal asparagus, he searched everywhere to see if he could still find new ghost-faced stone mushrooms.
To his surprise, a moment later, he found two more Ghost-faced Stone Mushrooms. After trying to plant them, he found that they were the same as the ones he found before. They were in a dormant state and needed to be awakened by resentful spirits.
Lu Xuan knew in his heart that these two people were nominally escorting more than a dozen spiritual planters, but they actually had the purpose of monitoring them to prevent the spiritual planters from enriching their own pockets and stealing the second-grade asparagus grass on the mountainside.
However, this method consumes a lot of spiritual power, and there is no guarantee whether there is still a mutated dragon's beard that is hiding itself.
Towards evening, Wang Ruhai, an elegant scholar who had been out for a long time, returned to the camp, carrying the corpse of a wolf-like monster in his hand.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion if they all disappeared, he deliberately only took out a relatively hidden piece of the Ghost Faced Stone Mushroom.
Lu Xuan held the ghost-faced stone mushroom and jumped a few times before arriving in front of Li Jianfeng.
During the day, he used Li Jianfeng's own experience as an endorsement to label the ghost-faced stone mushroom as worthless, completely dispelling all the monks present's thoughts on the strange stone.
Therefore, the Wang family monks gradually lost their curiosity and just regarded them as strange-shaped stones.
Suddenly, the translucent threads inside the Hidden Spirit Cloak swam quickly and soundlessly, and Lu Xuan's figure rested directly on the wooden bed.
Li Jianfeng shook his head and looked at the corpse of the monster in his hand.
"Fellow Daoist Li, this is a strange thing I found while identifying the asparagus grass. It seems to have a strange face."
In addition, ghost-faced stone mushrooms are different from normal spiritual plants. When they enter a dormant state, they do not have any spiritual energy fluctuations, and are no different from other stones on the mountainside.
I wanted to just pick it up and put it in the storage bag, but out of caution, I ended up taking the Ghost Faced Stone Mushroom in the middle of the night with the help of the invisibility ability of the Hidden Spirit Cloak.
It is difficult to identify in the dark, and the sneak attack of the mutated dragon's beard is much more dangerous than during the day. Therefore, there are no monks staying on the mountainside, and only a middle-level Qi-training monk from the Wang family is guarding the outside area.
The more Lu Xuan thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and he had a plan in mind.
"It stands to reason that the location of the Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom is not hidden, and the Wang family monks and spiritual planters have been in this area for an unknown amount of time. It is impossible not to find the Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom, so why are they still there now?
?”
"How? Have you found any effective means?"
The same is probably true for the more than ten spiritual planters present.
Strange stones rolled on the ground, and from time to time they revealed their terrifying faces composed of strange lines.
The surrounding spiritual planters who listened with their ears pricked up also continued to be busy identifying the asparagus grass.
Li Jianfeng looked at the ghost-faced stone mushroom in Lu Xuan's hand and said lightly.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan ignored the ghost-faced stone mushroom in the crack and walked aside.
Due to the short time, the camp was relatively crudely built and only served as a resting place.
"I spent most of my spiritual energy and picked up a so-called junk~!"
"Just a weird-looking stone."
Late at night, everything is silent.
"It's not easy to get a piece back, but compared to the value of its third-grade spiritual plant, it's not a waste of time and energy."
"It's just that I'm just an ordinary, honest spiritual planter. How should I find some resentful souls to awaken this ghost-faced stone mushroom?"
Lu Xuan secretly thought of incorporating this matter into his plan, and after leaving the secret realm, he would start cultivating the Ghost Faced Stone Mushroom.
