Chapter 88 Asparagus
High above the sky, mountains and rivers flew past under Lu Xuan's feet.
At this time he is sitting on a huge black giant eagle.
The giant eagle's body is three or four feet long, and its wings spread more than ten feet. The wings have dark black feathers like sword blades, and they are extremely fast.
The Iron Feather Eagle, a second-grade demon beast, was raised by the Wang family. Lu Xuan once saw a third-grade Iron Feather Eagle in the market, which was more than twice the size of this one.
There is an aura shield around the iron feather eagle, which blocks the bayonet-like wind in the sky.
The giant eagle flew extremely smoothly, without the slightest sense of bumps on its back.
Together with the two high-ranking monks of the Wang Family Qi training, there were nearly twenty people sitting on the back of the eagle.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I never expected to meet you here."
A monk with a simple and honest face slowly moved to Lu Xuan's side.
"He Dao is friendly." Lu Xuan said with a smile.
The monk's name is He Ping, a spiritual planter. Lu Xuan met once in Baicaotang. It is said that he is related to the alchemist who established the foundation, and manages a medicine garden for Baicaotang.
Among the monks who went to the secret realm to help the Wang family deal with Lingzhi this time, there are a total of fifteen Lingzhi masters, and three of them, including Lu Xuan, are closely related to Baicaotang.
Lu Xuan observed a little bit, most of the fifteen spirit planters were mid-level Qi training masters, and only one old man had a high-level Qi training level.
At least on the surface.
"I saw you observing others just now. It is estimated that Fellow Daoist Lu may not be familiar with the spiritual planters present. Would you like me to introduce you a little?"
He Ping said with a smile.
"Then I will trouble you, Fellow Daoist He." Lu Xuan was exactly what he wished for.
"These ten people all have good skills in planting spiritual plants, so they were invited by the Wang family."
"The old man who is leading the high-level Qi training belongs to the name of the Wang family."
He Ping introduced one by one, indeed as Wang Ruhai said before, most of the more than ten spirit planters have extraordinary backgrounds, Lu Xuan felt a little relieved.
"Fellow Daoist He, can you tell me about the secret realm?" Lu Xuan asked along the way.
"Fellow Daoist, haven't you entered the secret realm yet?" He Ping asked with a strange tone in his eyes.
"To be honest, there really isn't one."
Lu Xuan said frankly.
"Because of mediocre cultivation, not good at fighting skills, and greedy for life and fear of death, I gave up the idea of entering the secret realm to find opportunities, and devoted myself to cultivating spiritual plants."
"Fellow Daoist Lu must have given up on these things in order to have a cultivation ability that surpasses everyone at a young age."
He Ping straightened his expression.
"The source of the secret realm is mainly divided into two parts. One is the legacy of the ancient times. This may bring great opportunities, but it also hides huge risks."
"There is also a kind of ingenious workmanship, formed by chance and coincidence, forming a world of its own. If it is born not long ago, it usually contains a lot of cultivation resources, but there are also many monsters and beasts. Opportunities and risks coexist."
"The one we are going to enter this time is the second type."
He Ping said eloquently.
Half a day later, the Iron Feather Eagle landed slowly in a valley.
There was a monk from the Wang family waiting nearby, and saw the Iron Feather Eagle walking over with its wings folded, holding a large piece of monster meat.
Elegant scholar Wang Ruhai said with a smile.
Lu Xuan looked around curiously, the mountains were high and the forests were towering, and his spiritual sense could feel that he was covered by some unknown spiritual power.
The valley here is the stronghold of the royal family. If other monks want to enter the secret realm, they must find another way to enter.
Inspired by Wang Ruhai, a mid-level Qi training monk came out and opened the restriction outside the secret realm with a magic mirror. Spiritual energy surged, and a small door that could allow two people to pass appeared in front of everyone.
Lu Xuan and other spiritual planters followed the Wang family and filed in.
In a daze, Lu Xuan came to a strange space. The place he saw was barren, with a few sporadic plants growing on the black-red soil, and the sky was dark and gloomy.
"This is the periphery of the secret realm, let's speed up and go directly to the destination."
Li Jianfeng, who had been silent all this time, said in a deep voice, his figure shot into the distance like an arrow from the string.
More than a dozen spiritual planters either used body skills or activated magic weapons, and followed closely behind.
Lu Xuan also stuck two Swiftness Talismans on his legs, and was at the back of the crowd.
Along the way, the barren land gradually became alive. As he entered the secret realm, Lu Xuan began to find traces of monks.
It was just seeing that there were a large number of people on their side, and after they were led by high-ranking Qi training monks, the casual cultivators encountered outside the secret realm were like frightened birds, and hurried away.
Half an hour later, Lu Xuan and his party came to a big mountain with strange rocks.
Walking around among the strange rocks, I finally arrived at the destination.
"This is it."
Wang Ruhai pointed to the mountainside and said.
On the mountainside, there are many strange dark red grasses growing on the surface of strange black and red stones.
It is about two feet long, towering on the surface of the rock wall and rock, with a curved shape and a very thin tip, growing densely together, like a bunch of weird tentacles.
"Dragon's beard, the second-grade spiritual plant, it's just that under the influence of the special environment of the secret realm, the dragon's beard here has undergone a certain mutation. Many dark red long beards have a certain aggressiveness, and they are not any different from normal dragon's beard. There is a difference, but they will suddenly attack monks when picking or after picking."
"The attack strength is not high, about the same as that of a monk on the second or third level of Qi training, but because it is mixed in the picked asparagus, it often damages the normal spiritual plants, which is very annoying."
"Moreover, there are some weird components in the normal asparagus, which are integrated into the plant, and it is difficult to detect the separation, which makes it difficult for the second-grade spiritual plant to have corresponding value."
"So, we need to rely on the spiritual planters, with the help of your experience and knowledge in cultivating spiritual plants, to identify the mutated asparagus, separate the things inside the normal asparagus, and pick them well for us."
"Here is a hundred spirit stones. As part of the pre-payment, after leaving the secret realm, there will be a lot of spirit stones and elixir to thank everyone."
"The spirit planter who handles the most asparagus will have a generous extra reward."
Wang Ruhai took out a large number of spirit stones from the storage bag, divided them into fifteen small piles, and floated them in front of Lu Xuan and the others.
"One hundred spirit stones, the value is between the first-grade magic weapon and the second-grade magic weapon, which is not bad."
Lu Xuan accepted a hundred spirit stones and put them in the storage bag.
"However, it's not worth it for me to risk myself. I can follow other spiritual planters and fish."
Lu Xuan thought secretly.
Several mid-level monks who practiced Qi from the Wang family started to set up a camp. Among the spiritual planters, some people had already walked up to the Dragon Beard Grass, holding up the shield magic weapon, and carefully observed the Dragon Beard Grass.
Several people got together and discussed in low voices how to identify the normal asparagus.
Lu Xuan followed behind these people, nodding in agreement from time to time, looking at the several spirit planters who had penetrated into the territory of Asparagus grass, the corner of his mouth twitched.
"One hundred spirit stones, what are you desperate for!"
