Chapter 475 - Drastic Change

  Lu Xuan said he envied Huo Lin'er's harvest in the Black Demon Abyss, but he didn't care in his heart.

  He had worked so hard for so long, fighting evil monsters, and had to face the covetousness of other cultivators, but the treasures he got were not as good as his cultivation of spiritual plants and harvesting light balls. How could he want to explore the secret realm?

  Huo Lin'er just passed by Lu Xuan's cave and came to see him. Seeing that he had made up his mind, he didn't force him. After chatting for a few words, he hurried away and prepared to enter the secret realm next time.

  Lu Xuan had been in the cave for a long time, and he still needed to fulfill his duties as the head of the blessed land of the Ten Thousand Monsters Cave, so he returned to the blessed land.

  He planned to pick the remaining jade dew fruits next time he came back and collect enough light balls at once.

  Everything in the blessed land was normal. Although there were minor frictions and minor problems with many spiritual beasts, they were all properly resolved by Sun Yun and others, and Lu Xuan didn't need to take action.

  Every day, he practiced several rare skills obtained from the light group. In his spare time, he would visit the old and young white jade sky-supporting apes, chat with the old dragon turtle for a while, and go to the forbidden area to recycle the scraps of monster flesh and blood, and help the Qingqiu fox check on the situation of its experimental subjects.

  Half a month later, when he was meditating and practicing in the cloud house, a voice passed through the restrictions he had casually set up and rang in his ears.

  "Junior Brother Lu, I'm back."

  Lu Xuan suddenly jumped up and rushed out of the door at the fastest speed. At a glance, he saw Cangwu Zhenren standing in the cloud, his body like cast iron.

  "Welcome to the return of Master Uncle."

  He bowed and saluted.

  "The thing I was going to do was relatively smooth, so I came back early."

  "During this period, Master Nephew, you have troubled to take care of the blessed land spirit beasts."

  "This is my job, and I also rely on the great help of Senior Brother Sun Yun and others."

  Lu Xuan said modestly.

  Zhenren Cangwu showed a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

  "I already know what my nephew has done."

  Cangwu Zhenren had already learned about Lu Xuan's every move in the blessed land from Sun Yun and others. From their mouths, it can be seen that they have great recognition for Lu Xuan.

  At the same time, it was also learned that Lu Xuan served the six-grade spirit beasts, the white jade sky-clearing ape and the dragon turtle, comfortably, and the two spirit beasts praised Lu Xuan.

  One descendant was carefully taken care of by Lu Xuan, and the heart ape fruit was entrusted to Lu Xuan to cultivate. As for the dragon turtle, it goes without saying that the "Bliss Heart Sutra" and the Mi Yin Pearl made the friendship between the two as solid as a rock.

  What surprised Cangwu Zhenren even more was the attitude of the Qingqiu Fox in the forbidden land towards Lu Xuan.

  As the person in charge of the blessed land, he naturally knew clearly that the Qingqiu Fox was experimenting with various fierce beasts and evil beasts.

  Unexpectedly, such a maverick and unconventional fifth-grade spirit beast also favored Lu Xuan.

  From its mouth, it was learned that Lu Xuan made a lot of efforts in its fierce beast experiment, which greatly accelerated its progress in refining Taoist soldiers.

  After learning all this, Cangwu Zhenren was naturally very satisfied with Lu Xuan.

  "Junior Brother Lu, here are a thousand sword seals and three bottles of Emperor Liujiang that I collected before, as a reward for your management of the blessed land for more than half a year."

  A large number of sword seals and three white jade bottles slowly floated in front of Lu Xuan.

  "Thank you, uncle!"

  Lu Xuan was not polite and took the sword seals and bottles and put them into the storage bag.

  Zhenren Cangwu returned to the Ten Thousand Monsters Cave. His mission was completed, so Lu Xuan said goodbye to him and Sun Yun and others and returned to the cave.

  Just after he came to the foot of the mountain from the formation hall, he was full of expectations. When he was about to harvest the remaining more than 30 jade dew fruit light balls, a communication talisman outside the protective formation attracted his attention.

  The spiritual power stimulated the familiar voice of Baili Jianqing from the talisman.

  "Brother Lu, I'm back from the Black Demon Abyss, but I was seriously injured by the outbreak of evil spirits this time, so I left a talisman outside your cave."

  "If you see it, you can come to my cave. I have a spiritual seed to give to you."

  His voice revealed a bit of fatigue, without the usual vitality of Baili Jianqing.

  Lu Xuan's face suddenly darkened, and he didn't care about the spiritual plants in the spiritual field, and rushed directly to the cave where Baili Jianqing was.

  After a moment.

  "Brother Lu, you are here."   

  Baili Jianqing saw Lu Xuan, who had rushed over after hearing the news, and narrowed his eyes, forcing a smile on his pale face.

  It can be seen that his condition is not very good at the moment. There is a deep wound from the chest to the waist, which penetrates half of the body. The wound is surrounded by a faint black gas, and a dark green ointment is applied around it.

  "Lie down well."

  Lu Xuan said in a deep voice.

  "What's the matter? It's not serious to be like this?"

  "It's not serious, but it's not easy."

  "The body was invaded by the evil spirit. I returned to the sect with half my life. I got an ointment that can suppress the spread of the evil spirit from an alchemy brother. It is estimated that it will take some time to recover."

  "However, it's good to save my life."

  Baili Jianqing said with lingering fear.

  "Tell me what happened."

  Lu Xuan sat on the wooden chair next to him and listened quietly.

  "After entering the Black Demon Abyss Secret Realm, we planned to go deeper to fight for better treasures. Unexpectedly, a large number of powerful evil spirits suddenly emerged in the secret realm."

  "We were unlucky to encounter one, whose body was made up of hundreds of heads and had eight sharp long claws. The wound on my chest was left by him."

  "That evil spirit had the strength of a late-stage foundation-building cultivator. As soon as we met, one of our five junior sisters was directly cut off by it."

  "In the end, it was still a few of us who used our best methods to kill the evil spirit and escape from the secret realm by chance, but several of us were seriously injured."

  "This time, it was fortunate that your sword talisman, Brother Lu, was restrained by other fellow disciples, and I found an opportunity to sacrifice the sword talisman, which successfully killed the evil spirit."

  Speaking of the dead fellow disciples, Baili Jianqing's eyes flashed a gloomy color.

  "It's good to be able to survive. As for the sword talisman, don't think too much."

  Lu Xuan comforted Baili Jianqing.

  "It seems that the evil spirits in your body are very difficult to remove. If you follow your method, it will probably take a long time, which is not conducive to your recuperation."

  "I have a pill here that can remove the evil spirits in your body. Take it quickly."

  He took out the Dust-Cleansing Pill from the storage bag and handed it to Baili Jianqing.

  There are more than 30 Jade Dew Fruits, so there is no need to worry about not being able to produce Dust-Cleansing Pills in the light ball.

  "This... is too expensive, Brother Lu, you should keep it for yourself."

  After the Dust-Cleansing Pill appeared, Baili Jianqing felt that the faint black air around the wound had dissipated a little, and naturally understood the precious value of this pill.

  "This is the pill used to heal injuries. If you don't use it now, when will you wait?"

  "Let me keep it for my own use, what, are you waiting for me to appear when I need the pill?"

  Lu Xuan joked.

  "That's not what I meant..."

  Baili Jianqing said with a stammer.

  "Then take it immediately."

  Lu Xuan said with a firm expression.

  Baili Jianqing couldn't refuse, so he had to take the Dust-Cleansing Pill.

  Just after swallowing the pill, he suddenly remembered something and said to Lu Xuan in an excited tone:

  "Brother Lu, although I almost lost my life this time, I got a strange spirit seed from it. Can you see if you can cultivate it?"
