Chapter 583 – Spiritual Lotus Riot
Chapter 583 – Spirit Lotus Riot
After making the decision to explore the Thunder Island together, the five of them boarded the hanging floating stone one after another.
As soon as they landed on the hanging pumice stone, a trace of thunder aura surged from the surface of the thunder stone, which was transmitted into Lu Xuan’s body through his feet.
The power of the Thunder Mantle wasn’t very strong, but it had a slight damage to the body, and it was a considerable problem when accumulated.
Lu Xuan’s eye pupils appeared in a misty aura, looking at the flow of spiritual energy on the surface of the pumice stone, his feet landed on the weakest point of the thunder breath.
In this way, the influence of the thunder aura on the pumice stone on him was almost negligible.
A few moments later, the crowd half-expectantly, half-nervously climbed onto the first Thunder Island.
The prohibitions on top of the small island were very simple, and even if Lu Xuan hadn’t purposely studied the way of formations, he could easily crack them with just his eyes that practiced pupil arts and a little bit of crude theoretical knowledge.
However, with Luo Ming’s trio of Formation Masters around, he had saved himself a lot of effort.
Anyway, he was just an ordinary Spirit Plant Master, so it made sense that he didn’t know anything about formations.
“Huh? There are spirit plants there?!”
As soon as they entered the core of the Thunder Island, the five of them noticed that not far away there was a spiritual field with quite a few Lotus Spiritual Plants growing inside it.
The roots of the lotus flower were silver-white and dazzling, and the leaves were extremely wide, wrapped in countless fine thunder, and from time to time, there were wisps of thunder awns seeping out, jumping and chasing in the branches and leaves, and finally falling into some silvery-white gravel underneath.
In the countless thunder breath, the lotus leaves constantly shook, making the thunder awns that popped out seem especially active.
“Eh? Looking at this form feature, it seems to have a few similarities with the Thunderstorm Lotus I planted.”
While Lu Xuan was pondering, he only saw Wang Yanzhong swiping towards the lotus spirit plant where the thunder surged out at great speed.
“It belongs to me now!”
A surprised expression appeared on his face as he looked at the dozen or so silver-white lotus seeds that had formed in the center of the lotus leaf.
“Boom!!!”
Just as he was gently about to touch the silver-white lotus seeds, all of a sudden, the thunder breath wrapped around the lotus leaves seemed to sense something and all of a sudden fell into a riot.
A gust of thunder poured down, and the entire spiritual plant transformed into a ball of silver-white light that exploded.
The roots, branches and leaves, and even the lotus seed, all erupted with powerful thunder power.
Wang Yan Zhong was caught off guard and was hit head on by countless thunder breaths, and in an instant, the thunder awns were like waves sweeping over, constantly washing over his body.
Even though he was a body refining cultivator with a strong physical body, under the wash of so much thunder, his body was scorched black and his muscles were constantly trembling.
This scene caused several other people to stop in their tracks, looking at the Lotus Spirit Plant with caution in their eyes.
“What kind of ghost spirit plant is this? It exploded on its own before even touching it!”
Wang Yanzhong took a milky white elixir, and only after dozens of breaths did he completely return to normal, retreating in front of the four, with a few moments of irritation in his tone.
After seeing that there were no demonic beasts or evil spirits around, he originally planned to rely on his strong physical body to rush to the spirit plant at the first time and pick the pills, so that he might be able to get some more at the back.
Unexpectedly, that lotus spirit plant actually so strange, even without reason suddenly exploded, inside the knot out of the lotus not only all destroyed, but also let him suffer minor injuries, in the eyes of the four people fell into an embarrassing situation.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, for this weird spirit plant, is there any understanding?”
Luo Ming turned his head to look at Lu Xuan, who had a thoughtful look on his face, and asked in a deep voice.
“If I’m not mistaken, this should be a Fourth Grade Thunderstorm Lotus, which is extremely rare in the cultivation world, and a few Fellow Daoists probably haven’t heard of it if they aren’t interested in spiritual plants.
It was also only some time ago that I gained some understanding of it, obtaining one of its spirit seeds from the Seafloor Chamber of Commerce.”
“However, my spirit plant was just planted not long ago, and I haven’t seen what a spirit plant looks like when it matures, so I didn’t recognize it at once.”
“Thus, it was also incapable of alerting Daolord Friend Wang in the first place, I’m very sorry.” Lu Xuan cupped his fists and said to Wang Yanzhong.
“There’s no harm in it, it’s just that I accidentally fell into the path of that weird spirit plant, and the actual killing power isn’t very strong.”
Wang Yanzhong grimly even, waved his hand, not knowing whether he believed what Lu Xuan had said or not.
“Then why did this so-called Thunderstorm Lotus suddenly explode?”
Lei Zheng asked suspiciously.
“This Thunderstorm Lotus needs to be nourished with Thunder Spirit Breath when it grows, and after a long time, the accumulated Thunder Genus Spirit Power within the Spirit Plant will become more and more, and the plant will gradually become unstable, potentially leading to a Thunder Riot.”
“That Thunderstorm Lotus just now, it looks like it has matured for a long time, and the Thunder-attribute Spiritual Energy within the plant has reached an extremely terrifying point, very sensitive, a little bit will ignite.”
“Therefore, later on, if a few fellow Daoists want to pick the Thunderstorm Lotus, they must pay attention to this point, and try to be gentle in their movements, and converge their spiritual energy, so as not to stimulate the Thunder Spirit aura on the plant.”
“The Thunderstorm Lotus seed contains pure lightning power inside, it can be used to raise thunder genus spirit beasts, such as that Thunder Jiao in the hands of Daoist Luo, it can also be used to assist in gradual thunder system techniques and divine abilities, it’s worth a lot.”
Lu Xuan reminded.
“It seems that inviting Fellow Daoist Lu to come along to this Ancient Medicinal Garden this time was an incomparably correct decision, if it was just a few of us roughnecks directly picking the lotus seeds, I don’t know how much we would have lost.”
A smile appeared on Luo Ming’s face, and a few people nodded in agreement, deeply recognizing the importance of Spiritual Planters in this Pill Garden.
Each of the five people chose a spiritual field and collected their spiritual energy to avoid stimulating the lightning spirit aura on the plants.
Then, with movements that were gentle to the extreme, they slowly reached out to pick the lotus seeds.
Lu Xuan similarly chose a plant and gently plucked the lotus seed from the center of the lotus leaf.
The reason why he had just informed the crowd about the Thunderstorm Lotus was naturally because he had his own considerations.
If he were to pick it alone, then he would definitely become a target, perhaps causing the four to join forces against him.
If he hid the information about the Thunderstorm Lotus, the rare spiritual plants were in front of him, and the crowd could not possibly pass the treasure mountain without entering it, and would definitely try to pick the lotus, and then he might lose a lot of money for no reason at all.
By revealing the information about the Thunderstorm Lotus that he knew, he could avoid this situation, and at the same time, when dividing the lotus seeds, with this important information, he would be able to get some more.
The five people were not very far away from each other, so naturally, there would not be a situation where they would monopolize the lotus seeds, and soon, they picked the Thunderstorm Lotus from a nearby spiritual field.
After Lu Xuan’s reminder, there was no more lotus thunderstorm scenarios behind them, and a large number of lotus seeds were picked without any danger.
“A total of one hundred and eight lotus seeds, Fellow Daoist Lu made a plan to pick so many, how about he alone gets twenty-eight, and the four of us get twenty each?”
“OK.”
“No problem, this is what Fellow Daoist Lu deserves.”
Lei Zheng and the others nodded in agreement.
“Thank you, fellow Daoists.”
Lu Xuan arched his hand in salute and nonchalantly put the twenty-eight Silver White Lotus Seeds into his storage pouch.
“Hee hee~”
While the crowd was wanting to head to the other side of the island to continue searching for the Thunderstorm Lotus and picking the lotus seeds, suddenly, a strange laughter resounded in their ears.
The laughter was magnificent, like the rise of thunder.
