Chapter 485: Unraveling the cocoon
Huo Zhen led Lu Xuan and others through the ridges and ditches of the spiritual field.
“The flame soil is unique to the Fire Cloud Cave. Once transplanted from the Fire Cloud Cave, it will slowly lose the fire spirit breath as time goes by and become ordinary spiritual soil.”
“So, in order to prevent this land from being wasted, the sect allows our tribe to live in the Fire Cloud Cave.”
“It just so happened that the environment here was suitable for our life and practice, so we hit it off and settled down for a long time. Generation after generation, we have been here for countless years.”
“Most of the spiritual plants in the spiritual field are second-grade and third-grade, and there are also two types of fourth-grade, with fire-type spiritual plants being the main ones.”
“This inexplicable change in the spiritual plant occurred this time. The spiritual plant masters in the clan used many methods, but to no avail, and they couldn’t even find the cause of the change.
If it cannot be resolved smoothly, it will be a huge loss for our family. "
The more Huo Zhi said, the more worried his face became.
"Uncle Huo Zhi, don't worry. Junior Brother Lu is the most famous spiritual planter in Tianjian Sect. Even Master Jiedan is not as accomplished as him in spiritual plantation. This is the first time he discovered the strangeness of Huo Jingzhi. Change the root cause.”
“With him here, we will definitely be able to protect the many spiritual plants in the spiritual field.”
Huo Lin'er said in a deep voice.
“Junior brother Lu, I’ll leave it to you.”
Lu Xuan nodded, walked to the front, and carefully inspected the spiritual plants in the spiritual field.
Many spiritual plants in the spiritual field are somewhat similar to the fire jingzhi at that time. There are black and red thin lines inside the plants. The thin lines vary in thickness. The thinnest ones are only the size of a hair, and the thickest ones are almost equivalent to half of his fingers. Counting them. The roots are combined together, occupying nearly half of the area of the spiritual plant.
He secretly used the Earth Drawing Technique, and subtle changes occurred in the scorching soil of the spiritual field. The spiritual roots of the spiritual soil detached and rejoined, allowing him to quietly complete the planting process.
【Huo Jingzhi, a third-grade spiritual plant...】
【Red Thunderwood, third-grade spiritual plant...】
His mind was focused on the spiritual plant, and thoughts emerged in his mind.
“Sure enough, the source of the mutation is exactly the same, and it’s all caused by the mysterious flame insect.”
After understanding this, Lu Xuan felt reassured and turned to look at Xu Yong and the others.
“Next, I’d like to trouble you two, Senior Brother Xu and Senior Sister Zhou.”
“You can cast relatively sophisticated ice-cold spells on the mutated spiritual plants. I will use my spiritual sense to observe the status of the spiritual plants, and when the time is right, I will notify you two in time.”
The ice-cold spell acts on the fire-type spiritual plants and is likely to cause serious damage to the spiritual plants. Lu Xuan, who can know the detailed status of the spiritual plants, is needed to grasp the degree of this.
"good."
Xu Yong and the other two nodded and said that spiritual power surged in their bodies.
A cloud of ice mist floated out of Xu Yong's body, and in an instant it came to a spiritual plant in front of him, wrapping it silently.
With concentrated perception, you can find endless tiny ice spikes in the ice mist, which are almost invisible and flying freely.
As for Zhou Yunning, a miniature white jade coffin exuding an extremely cold atmosphere appeared in front of her.
She pointed at a spiritual plant not far away, and the coffin turned into a white light, covering the diseased area of the spiritual plant, constantly changing its shape, and finally became like the branches and leaves of the spiritual plant, tightly attached to it.
Lu Xuan's spiritual consciousness spread, and he stared closely at the movement of the thin black and red lines inside the spiritual plant.
After a while, the spiritual plant under the ice mist first changed.
The thin black and red lines are swimming faster and faster, showing a faint vitality.
Lu Xuan said softly, and then in Huo Xuan's eager eyes, his spiritual consciousness turned into threads and penetrated into the mutated spiritual plant.
Find the stimulated demonic flame insect that is showing its vitality, and pull the demonic flame insect to slowly swim among the spiritual plants. Wherever they pass, they avoid the main structures of Lingzhi and try to minimize the losses.
“Come out, come out.”
Horbital couldn't help muttering to himself, looking excited.
A black and red insect was slowly pulled out from the leaf of the spiritual plant. After being stimulated by the external spiritual power, its body twisted unnaturally.
“Chief Fire, this is the magic flame insect that caused the spiritual plant to mutate.”
“This insect is extremely rare in the world of cultivation. It may have been brought from a foreign land. It likes to **** the vitality of fire-type spiritual plants. When it parasitizes in the spiritual plant, it becomes one with the spiritual plant and is extremely difficult to separate.”
“Forced separation will cause serious damage to the spiritual plant, or even cause direct death.”
Lu Xuan handed the black and red zerg in his hand to Huo Ji.
“It turns out that this thing is causing harm to the thousands of spiritual plants in the Fire Cloud Cave!”
Huo Zhen looked at the magic flame insect in his hand that was trying to break free, and said through gritted teeth.
A wisp of red flame surged out from the tip of his finger, directly burning the magic flame insect into black ashes.
"If you want to separate the insects, you must have a powerful monk who is good at ice magic. Under the exquisite control of the magic, the magic flame insects inside the plant will be stimulated to reveal their original form. Then, there must be a person who understands spiritual plants. The spiritual planter will take out the magic flame insect while trying to avoid harm to the spiritual plant."
As Lu Xuan spoke, he noticed that the spiritual plant under Zhou Yunning's coffin also moved slightly.
At his signal, the cold female cultivator removed the cold deformed coffin, revealing the mutant spiritual plant covered with a thin layer of frost inside.
Lu Xuan followed the same method and carefully took out the magic flame insect inside.
“The spiritual plant that gets rid of the bugs needs to rest for a period of time. It requires more fire spiritual power and more precise cultivation. Please pay more attention to this, Chief of the Fire Clan.”
Lu Xuan told Huo Zhen.
Huo Zhen and several Huoyundong spiritual planters behind him all nodded and kept it in mind.
“There may be magic flame insect eggs hidden in the spiritual plants. After the adult insects are removed, I will check the spiritual plants in the spiritual field in detail.”
“You’re going to have to trouble Friends Lu Dao a lot. Unfortunately, the spiritual planters in the clan are not very skilled and don’t have the ability to detect insect eggs. So there are so many spiritual plants in the Lingtian. You can only work hard for you, Lu Dao.”
Huo Zhi sighed and turned to the several Huoyundong tribesmen behind him who were shrinking their heads. His tone was partly scolding and partly angry.
“You guys, follow Master Lu carefully. If you can’t serve Master Lu well, I’ll ask you!”
Several people nodded.
Lu Xuan doesn't care about this, and he's not afraid of what the Huoyundong Spirit Planter will learn.
While observing and cleaning the magic flame insects in the mutant spiritual plant, he transmitted a message to Huo Lin'er.
“Senior Brother Huo, the origin of this Demonic Flame Insect is unknown. I don’t know if it’s a problem with the outside world or the Fire Cloud Cave itself. You should pay attention to what’s going on around you. It’s best to find out the mastermind behind it.”
“Thank you, Junior Brother Lu, for reminding me, I will pay close attention to it.”
Huo Lin'er expressed his gratitude to Lu Xuan and also sent a message.
In this way, Lu Xuan and Zhou Yunning cooperated with each other, slowly but steadily clearing away the demonic flame insects parasitic in Ling Zhi's body.
The more times he cleaned it, the better he became. His spiritual consciousness and spiritual power pulled out the magic flame insects faster and faster, and the damage to the spiritual plants became less and less.
It has a smooth and natural feeling of being peeled off from cocoons.
