Chapter 162 - Clinging to someone's thighs starts with cultivation
"It cost me more than 200 spirit stones to buy the monster's pupils, and more than 100 spirit stones for the eggs. These spirit stones are not worth spending."
Lu Xuan sighed as he held the black beetle eggs and the bottle containing the silver mantis.
"One is used to cultivate the fourth-grade hundred-eye strange wood, and the other is used to cultivate the fourth-grade black insect vine. It's acceptable."
After buying the monster's pupils and the eggs and larvae, he now has about 1,400 spirit stones on him. This amount of wealth is a huge sum of money for him when he was a casual cultivator, but it is not enough for the Tianjian Sect.
He came to the spiritual field where the black insect vine was located. The black insect vine had not yet sprouted, but the previously buried winged cicada eggs and the spirit seeds were almost integrated, and the surface of the spirit seeds looked like a strange sense of coordination.
Lu Xuan selected several places and used the earth-inducing technique of the great success realm to successfully place the black beetle eggs on the surface of the black insect vine spirit seeds.
As for the two silver mantis larvae, Lu Xuan had just taken them out of the bottle. The two larvae that were originally trying to escape quickly seemed to sense something and stopped above the black insect vine, sniffing around.
Then, they used a pair of white jade-like forelimbs to dig the spiritual soil, trying to get close to the black insect vine.
Lu Xuan couldn't bear to watch, so he directly used the earth-drawing technique to create a direct passage for the two silver mantis larvae. The larvae,
one in front and one behind, couldn't wait to drill into the passage, as if they were glued to the black insect vine spirit seeds, lying tightly and motionless.
"The first-grade hidden wing cicada, black beetle, and second-grade silver mantis should be enough for the early growth of the black insect vine."
Lu Xuan inspected the spiritual field, called a spiritual crane, and came to the front of the general affairs hall.
The general affairs hall was much more lively than usual, with dozens of cultivators standing in front of the huge light curtain.
Lu Xuan bypassed the light curtain and came to the side and rear, canceling the monster eye pupil task that he had arranged last time.
It is normal for the sect's monks to go out to explore and hunt monsters. If Lu Xuan keeps on carrying the monster eye mission, he estimates that he will soon face bankruptcy.
The fourteen eyes brought by the female cultivator, plus some on the way, are enough to cultivate the Hundred Pupils Strange Wood for a while.
After canceling the mission, Lu Xuan found that the number of monks standing in front of the huge light curtain is increasing. He couldn't help but gently touch a monk next to him and asked curiously.
"Excuse me, brother, why does it feel that the General Affairs Hall is much more lively than usual? Is there something good happening?"
"Don't you know this?"
The young monk turned around and asked in surprise.
"I basically cultivate spiritual plants on weekdays and rarely go out. I don't know much about the recent developments of the sect."
"I see." The young monk nodded, seeing that Lu Xuan didn't seem to be faking it, he explained.
"Not long ago, a small secret realm appeared about a thousand miles away from the sect. It is rumored that some fellow disciples obtained a lot of good things from that secret realm."
"So the tasks related to that secret realm are quite popular recently. I heard that the sect is also planning to organize some foundation-building uncles to go and completely open up the secret realm."
Lu Xuan suddenly realized that everything in the newly discovered secret realm was unknown and full of infinite possibilities. As early as when he was in Linyang Market, he often heard similar rumors about who had obtained high-grade skills, rare treasures, and so on in the secret realm.
In the new secret realm, the possibility of obtaining opportunities and treasures is much greater than usual, and it is no wonder that the fellow disciples present are so excited.
"Junior brother, do you want to go and take a look together? With the protection of the foundation-building uncle, relying on the strength of the Tianjian Sect, we can completely push that small secret realm."
The young cultivator blushed and invited Lu Xuan.
"No, no, I still have spiritual plants in my spiritual field that I haven't picked yet, and I can't delay the harvest season."
Lu Xuan refused quickly. The foundation-building cultivators' protection in exploring the secret realm can, at best, ensure the safety of the disciples in the sect. At worst, it means that there is a high probability that there are third-grade or higher monsters or strange-level evil spirits in the secret realm.
Moreover, even the foundation-building cultivators cannot protect every cultivator. If one happens to be missed, and the missed cultivator happens to encounter a third-grade monster or a strange-level evil spirit, then there is a high possibility that he will never come back.
With the Immaculate Jade, Hidden Spirit Cloak, Xun Lei Sword Pill and other means in hand, although Lu Xuan is confident that he can save his life in front of a third-grade monster, he still has no idea of taking any risks.
"Once my cultivation level is improved a little bit, and I have a little more treasures, I can consider going out."
Lu Xuan said secretly in his heart.
Then, he walked out of the General Affairs Hall very calmly, called a spiritual crane, and asked it to send him back to the cave.
After taking care of all the spiritual plants in the spiritual field, Lu Xuan came to the spiritual spring and took out a crab from under a strange rock. The
light ball reward brought by the fully mature crab has been opened. In order to ensure that he can eat the freshest ingredients, Lu Xuan has kept the remaining two crabs under the strange rock of the spiritual spring.
"Ready! Ready!"
The cloud-stepping lynx walked over gently, and its thick feet like white clouds easily knocked out the unruly crab. Then, the grass puppet came over, extended two gray grass ropes from its body, and tied the crab tightly. The young
wind falcon grabbed the grass rope and put the crab directly into the pot without waiting for Lu Xuan's instructions.
"You are a grass puppet, you only eat spirit stones and grass spirit essence, why are you so active?"
Lu Xuan glared at the grass puppet, and the grass puppet with a huge gray grass head slowly retreated to the spirit field.
"Let's eat!"
Lu Xuan lifted the lid of the pot, ignoring the rapidly surging heat, and turned over the steamed crab shell, revealing the golden and plump crab roe and crab meat inside.
"White, tender, fresh and fragrant, in one word, absolutely!"
Lu Xuan swallowed a mouthful of crab meat and couldn't help but sigh.
The stepping cloud lynx and the young wind falcon next to him stared at him intently, as if urging him to get them a piece quickly.
Lu Xuan broke off a crab leg for each of them and let them chew it by themselves. Erxiao held it tightly, chewing his face with oil.
"Crack!"
When one person and two children were enjoying the delicious food, a familiar voice attracted Lu Xuan's attention.
He looked in the direction of the sound, and the mysterious phoenix that appeared last time appeared silently in the yard again.
"Here, give you a crab leg!"
Lu Xuan threw a crab leg over. The phoenix lightly shook its white feathers and nodded slightly to show its gratitude.
"It's so smart."
Seeing this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but sigh. Last time, because the phoenix appeared too abruptly, he was worried that rash investigation would cause displeasure, so he didn't sense the origin of the phoenix well.
The first time is unfamiliar, and since he came to the cave again, Lu Xuan was not so polite.
His mind quietly focused on the phoenix, and the information he got shocked him.
[Xuantian Bailuan, growth period, third-grade demon beast, is the guardian spirit beast of the Tianjian Sect, the descendant of the sixth-grade Xuantian Bailuan, and has the potential to grow into a seventh-grade spirit beast. ]
"Descendant of the guardian spirit beast... the potential to grow into a seventh-grade spirit beast... this is definitely a thigh that is growing rapidly!"
Lu Xuan sighed in his heart. The talent of the mixed-blood black-scaled dragon he saw before was already quite good, but in front of the Xuantian Bailuan in front of him, it was completely not enough.
"To capture the heart of a spirit beast, the first step is to capture its stomach."
"To cling to someone's power, you must first start by nurturing him!"
He has recovered about 70% to 80%.
