Chapter 384 – Cuscuta Yin Silk
“This senior brother will naturally do it.”
A meaningful smile surfaced at the corner of Lu Xuan’s mouth.
“However, the matter of being able to condense Fire Essence from this Altered Spirit Plant, I still ask Senior Brother Fire to keep it a secret for me.”
He instructed Fire Liner.
“Please rest assured, Senior Brother Lu, I will keep my mouth shut.”
After being informed that Lu Xuan’s exchange of the Altered Spirit Plants was for the purpose of seizing benefits for the Sect, Fire Liner completely let go of her heart and gently nodded her head.
“By the way, Senior Brother Lu, this time when we return to the campsite, apart from handing over the Altered Spirit Plants picked by your Sect and recuperating in the meantime, there is one more thing that I need to ask of you.”
Fire Liner said, taking out a four-square jade seal from her storage pouch, and inside the near-transparent jade seal, there was a light dark red silk grass.
“This mutant spirit plant was recently discovered in an underground palace in the blessed land, its movements are extremely secretive, most of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the three sects have difficulty detecting it, causing us a great deal of trouble.”
“It’s ability is extremely special and odd, it can silently parasitize on demonic beast cultivators, affecting their mind and spirit, and in severe cases, it can even directly manipulate the cultivator’s body.”
“We have thought of many methods, the effect is not very big, those talismanic spells that drive away evil spirits and purify the spirit, etc. do not have much effect on it.”
“Please also ask Senior Fire Brother to let me take a look.”
Lu Xuan took the Closed Jade Seal and scrutinized it.
The spirit plant inside the jade seal was very slender, a light dark red color, rootless and leafless, with only a meandering and coiling filament, sensing Lu Xuan’s line of sight, the slender filament slowly swam like a viper, even when it was sealed, it still made a powerful attacking stance.
“From the form, it is indeed a bit odd, but there is nothing more new to be seen, it still needs to be studied and experimented with.”
“However, senior brother I have a question, please ask senior brother to solve it.”
“Senior Brother Lu, please speak.”
“As far as I know, there are two JieDan real people in this Sect who have opened up the blessed land, and the remaining two Sects are expected to have a few, so with several JieDan real people, wouldn’t it be easy to deal with these mutated spirit plants without any effort?”
Lu Xuan looked puzzled.
“Master Lu doesn’t know, if this Mutant Spirit Plant is found on the trail, it would be fairly easy to deal with, but the difficulty lies here.”
“The JieDan real people are focused on cracking the blessed land’s prohibitions, and won’t spend too much energy on tackling these mutant spirit plants, plus they have an extremely wide range of activities, so they can only send the three Sect’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators to deal with them.”
Fire Liner’s smile carried a hint of bitterness.
“There have already been several Foundation Establishment cultivators who were accidentally parasitized by this odd spirit plant, it’s a good thing that they were discovered in time, otherwise I’m afraid that their lives are in danger.”
“It’s good that it’s okay.”
Lu Xuan nodded, only feeling lucky in his heart.
The cultivators who had opened up the blessed land at the frontline were basically at the middle to late stage of Foundation Establishment, but when they came across this mutated spirit plant, they were still unknowingly infested and parasitized by it, almost endangering their lives, so it was evident that the level of danger was high.
“It’s better to stay in the back and study the spirit plant at ease, buying and selling it upside down.”
He thought secretly and looked down at Fire Liner.
“Senior Fire Brother, I will go and study this odd spirit plant as soon as possible, I just don’t dare to guarantee that there will be good results.”
“If there are any discoveries that can help the sect, I will definitely inform you and the others, Senior Fire Brother, at the first opportunity.”
Lu Xuan solemnly promised.
“Tough luck Senior Brother Lu, I’m going to join up with my fellow sect members in the next two days, if Senior Brother has any major discoveries, he can contact me by transmission.”
Worried that Lu Xuan would not be able to obtain too much information about the eccentric spirit plant in a short period of time, Fire Liner left behind a summoning talisman and bid farewell.
Lu Xuan looked in the direction where the fiery red vestments had disappeared and opened his mouth slightly, but ultimately remained silent. Elder brother, I can tell you now ……
He muttered a dark sentence in his heart.
Returning to his own exclusive small courtyard, he gazed down at the square jade seal in his hand and carefully unlocked the prohibition on the surface of the jade seal.
The pale dark red silk grass instantly transformed into an extremely subtle red line that flew in front of Lu Xuan.
“Ding” sound.
The Silk Grass Spirit Plant struck Lu Xuan’s crystalline jade-like palm as if it had encountered a piece of iron plate and flew backward at the same speed.
Under Lu Xuan’s Delusion Breaking Pupil Technique, a light red thread landed on the ground, bounced up at great speed, and continued to rush towards the Demon Ghost Vine not far away.
Unable to break through the defense, it immediately changed its target, wanting to parasitize into the Demon Ghost Vine.
The gray vine is not surprised but happy, a deep crack appears on the vine, seems to be welcoming the light red silk thread in general.
There was actually a delicious food that came to the door by itself, how could the Demon Ghost Vine, which loved to eat spiritual plants, not feel surprised.
“Well, I still have some more to use, I can’t give it to you to eat for now.”
Lu Xuan floated in front of the Demon Ghost Vine like floating light, grabbing the Dark Red Silk Grass and paying no attention to its attempts to try to enter his body.
He casually laid down a forbidden restriction, placing the eccentric spirit plant into the spirit soil enveloped by the restriction, and very violently and fiercely pouring it with silky spirit rain.
Under the condensation of his mind, detailed information about this mutant spirit plant flashed through his mind.
[Unknown spiritual plant, the third grade doddering yin silk long-term under the influence of some kind of powerful flesh and blood power, mutated into, like to parasitize in the spiritual plant demonic beasts and even cultivators, sucking their spiritual vitality, flesh and blood essence, etc., the deeper the degree of parasitism, and can even directly manipulate the behavior of demonic beasts and cultivators].
Usually live in the dark underground, not parasitized, for a variety of special sound wave is extremely sensitive, in the sound wave spiritual attack, will not be able to reveal their shape, curled up into a small group.
“A mutation of the Third Grade Cuscutting Yin Silk into ……”
Lu Xuan muttered.
There were countless various strange and bizarre spirit plants in the cultivation world, and although he often flipped through the spirit plant tomes in the Bible Pavilion, this was the first time he had seen this kind of high-grade spirit plant with odd habits.
“With this parasitic ability, being among the third grade stage is considered rare.”
“It’s a pity that the Illusory Bamboo stayed in the cave, or else with it alone, it would be able to easily deal with these Mutant Cuscuta Yin Silk.”
He rang the Fourth Grade Illusory Sound Bamboo in the cave that could simulate all sorts of weird noises, and a sudden thought came to his mind.
“Well, the task entrusted to me by Senior Brother Fire Liner has been completed, and one of the biggest problems isn’t understanding this odd spirit plant, but rather considering when I should inform him of it.”
Lu Xuan was in a quandary in his heart, if he said it too early, it would not be good to explain how he learned the information about the spirit plant so quickly, and it would also attract attention and bring unnecessary trouble.
If it was too late, it could also cause damage to the sect, Lu Xuan decided to wait for a few days before contacting Fire Liner.
He resealed the Cuscuta Yin Silk in the Jade Seal and caught a glimpse of the salivating Demon Ghost Vine by his feet.
The gray slime left everywhere on the ground showed how much it wanted to taste this Cuscuta Yin Silk.
“What, you want to eat it? There’s no rush, there’s definitely an opportunity to fill you up.”
Lu Xuan kicked the gray vine that was growing in size and said with a smile.
The Demon Ghost Vine’s spirit was not low, and when it heard Lu Xuan’s words, the gray vines immediately pounced towards Lu Xuan.
“Roll roll roll!”
Lu Xuan looked at the Demon Ghost Vine that was covered in slime with a look of disgust.
