Chapter 270 - Old Friends

  "Line up, line up!"

  "Come one by one!"

  "Take good care of your dragons, don't let them cause trouble and waste Uncle Lu's time."

  In Qianlong Lake.

  Hundreds of dragons and pythons were neatly lined up in rows, with a cultivator standing guard at each distance, and imitation dragon-binding rings were on standby to prevent the dragons from being restless.

  In order to save Lu Xuan's time, Huang Yuan took the initiative to call fellow disciples from other waters of Qianlong Lake, asking them to bring their dragons and pythons for a physical examination.

  A communication talisman flew in front of Huang Yuan, and he listened to the voice transmission on it, frowning.

  "Junior Brother Zhang, I'll tell you again, Uncle Lu came here to help the dragons with a physical examination in his busy schedule, and won't leave you too much time."

  "Is this important to you in refining pills? If the dragons and pythons you raise have any physical problems in the future, don't blame me for not notifying you in time."

  He left a few words on the communication talisman, loosened his palm, and let the communication talisman shuttle into the mountains.

  "Really? You didn't seize such a good opportunity. If you fail in alchemy, you can try again immediately. If the dragon doesn't have a physical examination, I don't know when Uncle Lu will come next time."

  Huang Yuan muttered, walked to the front of the team, and looked at Lu Xuan, who was probing the dragon's body with his fingers flying, with a flash of respect in his eyes.

  "Come, eat a piece of meat, don't be nervous, it's just a blood draw."

  Lu Xuan said softly to the black dragon in front of him.

  Of course, the examination of the dragons in Qianlong Lake was out of sincerity and for their health. As for blood draw, it was just a side job

  . Thoughts flashed through his mind, and the spiritual consciousness of the foundation-building realm quickly scanned every part of the dragon's skin, flesh, and bones.

  After confirming that there was no problem, he thought, and a red needle pierced the dragon's scales, and a stream of hot blood spurted out of the hole.

  All of it poured into a white jade bottle that Lu Xuan had prepared long ago, without a drop left.

  Compared with the blood volume of the dragon itself, the amount he took was not much, and it only needed to rest for a few days before it could recover as usual.

  In front of one's own health, this little bit of blood is nothing.

  Compared with the last blood test, although it is still the familiar red needle, Lu Xuan's spiritual power and spiritual awareness are more than ten times stronger.

  In addition to saving some time on the road, the efficiency of blood drawing is extremely high. It used to take several days to draw out all the dragons in the outer waters, but now it is estimated that it can be done in half a day.

  During the inspection, no fish similar to the hidden scales were found. Only in some young dragons, parasitic monsters were found lurking in the bodies of some young dragons. In addition, some hidden diseases left by dragons after fighting for food and territory were pointed out.

  When they saw him pull out the slender parasitic monsters from the flesh and bones of the dragons, everyone present felt that the trip was worthwhile and was full of gratitude.

  "Junior Brother Lu, please stay."

  After checking all the dragons and pythons, Lu Xuan was about to leave when a clear voice came from behind him.

  Lu Xuan turned his head and saw a refined scholar looking at him with a smile. With a quick glance of his spiritual awareness, the scholar's cultivation level was similar to his, both in the early stage of foundation building.

  "I wonder what's the important matter, Senior Brother?"

  Lu Xuan asked in confusion.

  "My name is Tao Zhiqing, and I have heard about Junior Brother's accomplishments in the field of spiritual plants and spiritual beasts."

  "Today, I heard that you came to help the outer disciples check the physical condition of their dragons, so I came to take a look."

  "I have some dragons and monsters in the center of Qianlong Lake, most of which are of the third and fourth grades. I called Junior Brother to help check them."

  The elegant scholar said slowly.

  "Okay! The customer has been upgraded!"

  Lu Xuan was happy in his heart, but his expression did not change.

  The dragons and pythons he had just checked were all of the first and second grades, and he was already quite satisfied. Unexpectedly, there were also dragons of the third and fourth grades who took the initiative to deliver themselves to his door.   

  "Xue Nie Hua is in for a treat."

  He sighed in his heart, smiling and looking at Tao Zhiqing.

  "Since Senior Brother Tao has invited me, I dare not disobey. Please lead the way."

  "Haha, Junior Brother Lu, I will remember this favor."

  The elegant scholar laughed heartily and led Lu Xuan into the central area of ​​Qianlong Lake.

  Qianlong Lake stretches for hundreds of miles. The first- and second-grade dragons and pythons raised by Huang Yuan and others all live in the periphery. After breaking through and being promoted, they can enter the inner lake to live and practice. The black-scaled dragon that

  Lu Xuan solved a long time ago was raised on a small island in the center of the lake by Yang Qingfeng, who was in the middle stage of the foundation building realm.

  "Senior Brother Tao raised many dragons in the inner lake?"

  Lu Xuan asked the elegant scholar curiously while flying on the sword.

  "Not many, more than ten, mainly in the third-grade realm, and two in the fourth grade."

  The deeper into the inner lake, the more array restrictions are arranged. Tao Zhiqing answered while removing the restrictions.

  "Although there are hundreds or thousands of dragons and pythons in Qianlong Lake, only a few of them can grow to the foundation-building stage, and they are raised by several inner disciples."

  "By the way, Junior Brother Lu, are you an old acquaintance of Senior Brother Yang Qingfeng?"

  The elegant scholar suddenly asked.

  "Yes, I helped Senior Brother Yang solve a small problem before."

  Lu Xuan remembered the little black-scaled dragon with extraordinary talent, who did not like flesh and blood but loved spiritual fruits.

  "He has a black-scaled dragon under his command, whose bloodline talent is extremely outstanding. It is said that he has the talent to be promoted to a fifth-grade demon beast, but it is rumored that he has such talent because of the bloodline of other dragons. I wonder if Junior Brother Lu has heard of it?"

  "Not only have I heard of it, but I also found out through examination..."

  "But how did this news leak out?"

  Lu Xuan sighed at the gossipy heart of the foundation-building cultivator, but he kept his mouth shut.

  "I don't know about that." He said with a smile.

  "That guy took advantage of his own strength and snatched away all those rare black-scaled dragons. He treated them as treasures. I wanted to borrow one from him to improve the dragon species I had, but I couldn't."

  "In the end, it was taken away by other dragons!"

  The elegant scholar said with some gritted teeth.

  "What's more hateful is that it would have been fine if they had taken it, but the bloodline of the newly born black-scaled dragon actually went a step further!"

  "Why can't I get such a good thing?"

  Lu Xuan stood aside silently. The senior brother Tao Zhiqing in front of him was a typical person who laughed at others being fooled and hated himself for not being fooled. It was better to remain silent.

  "Okay, Junior Brother Lu, we're here."

  The elegant scholar passed through the thick fog formation hidden with murderous intent and landed on a small island first.

  Looking down from the sky, the island looked like a crescent moon, and the concave area in the middle was where dragon monsters were raised.

  More than a dozen dragons with strong breath and huge bodies swam freely in the lake, floating up and down.

  "Hmm? I met an old friend."

  A snow-white dragon with a chill all over its body came into his sight, which made him feel strangely familiar and reminded him of the glorious years when he raised it.
