Chapter 646 Hedging

"There is a clue, but whether it is effective or not, you have to try it yourself, fellow Taoist Xing."

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

"Fellow Taoist, please clarify."

"Chenguangcao, as the name suggests, needs to absorb a lot of spiritual light during its growth. Looking at the layout around the spiritual plant, Fellow Daoist Xing should be aware of this characteristic."

"However, at different growth stages of spiritual plants, the amount of spiritual light required is also different. Now that spiritual plants are in a special period of exposure, the amount of spiritual light required is several times more than before."

"Deep in the black water, there is naturally insufficient light, and the light source set up by fellow Taoists is not strong enough. Therefore, the nutrients of the spiritual plants are not satisfied, and they gradually show signs of weakness."

"Just add a lot of spiritual light and fully illuminate the dust light grass to solve this problem."

Lu Xuan looked calm and talked eloquently, with absolute confidence in his tone, which was convincing.

"I see."

When Xing Yanran heard the words, she couldn't help but nod. Her spiritual power surged around her body, and several golden pearls flew out from the storage bag. The light shined brightly, making the entire courtyard look like daylight.

Stimulated by the strong light, the light spots in the branches and leaves of the Chenguangcao sped up a little. After a while, the entire spiritual plant became brighter than before, and in the perception of spiritual consciousness, there was a clear recovery of vitality.

“I didn’t expect that this problem could be solved so easily.”

Xing Yanran looked at Chen Guangcao, who was obviously improving, and sighed with emotion.

However, she also knew that ease was only a relative term. If Lu Xuan hadn't pointed out the problem directly and relied on herself, she still wouldn't have found a solution.

"Fellow Daoist Lu's attainments in spiritual cultivation are more powerful than rumored."

She looked at Lu Xuan with eyes full of approval.

The two Liyang Dao Sect monks next to him nodded in agreement.

"Thank you Taoist friend for helping to solve a big problem this time. I will reward you Taoist friend well after the banquet is over."

"I don't dare to take it seriously."

Lu Xuan said a few polite words and returned to the banquet hall with the three of them.

Half a day later, the banquet gradually came to an end, and the deacon of the cave presented an exquisite jade box to each alchemy monk's table.

After he left, the spiritual senses of several Danjie practitioners around Lu Xuan were scanned in the jade box.

"The fourth-grade spirit fish should be a specialty of Black Mercury Cave, so Ambassador Xing is very polite."

"This is also the fourth-grade monster meat."

Someone next to me said aloud.

"Um?"

Lu Xuan's spiritual sense swept over it, and he was confused. Although he did not see what was specifically contained in the jade box, his spiritual sense sensed that it was definitely not fourth-grade monster meat.

There is a strange spiritual seed in it. Judging from its aura, it should be of the fifth grade.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, the meat in your jade box is also the fourth-grade monster meat?"

A Master Jiedan who was a few feet away from him asked curiously.

"That's right."

Lu Xuan replied casually and put the jade box into the storage bag without leaving any trace.

"The rest of the pill-forming monks all gave fourth-grade monster meat or other treasures of the same level as gifts in return. Only my jade box contained a fifth-grade spiritual seed. It should be related to my help in solving the matter of the dust light grass spiritual plant. It has a lot to do with it.”

He thought secretly in his heart.

"Xing Xingshi's daughter deserves to be from a large family, and she is so generous."

"I just looked at it for a while, gave me a few pointers, and then gave me a fifth-grade spiritual seed."

"There is a huge difference in value between fourth-grade and fifth-grade treasures. She was thoughtful in giving such a big gift."

Lu Xuan was extremely satisfied with the reward. He just wanted to return to the cave, take out the spiritual seed, and find out where it came from.

"Judging from its aura, it should be some kind of fifth-grade water spiritual plant. The specific species can only be known after returning to the cave."

In the presence of a large audience, Lu Xuan couldn't take it out and examine it carefully, so he had to temporarily suppress his curiosity and wait for the banquet to end.

At this moment, the Qingying Feather Clothes he was wearing suddenly came to light, and his skin felt a faint tingling sensation.

"Is this a monk using a qi machine to spy on me?"

Alarm bells rang in Lu Xuan's heart. The Qingying Yuyi could block the pull of the breath and blind the deduction of techniques. To have such a reaction, there must be a monk spying on him secretly.

"Could it be related to the malicious behavior at the beginning of the banquet?"

The first thing that appeared in his mind was the vague malice that appeared on him when the banquet just started.

"It seems that some monks want to do harm to me."

He pondered secretly in his heart.

"Fight it head-on, or look for opportunities to avoid it?"

"To be honest, although I have a lot of fifth-grade treasures on my body, I have just been promoted to Dan Dan not long ago. Apart from those few treasures, in other aspects, I am just average among the monks of the same level."

"It's okay if the opponent is only in the early stage of forming a pill. With the treasure in his hand and his strength that is not weaker than that of a monk of the same level, he can handle it alone."

"But if there is more than one person on the other side, or if the strength is in the middle stage of pill formation or even higher, then it will be troublesome."

His mind was racing and he soon made a decision.

"Avoid it for the time being. Wait until more high-level spiritual plants mature and more treasures and magical powers are used to protect the body, and then we can deal with that person."

"Now that his purpose has been exposed, I am in the dark. As long as I am strong enough, I can get through it safely."

Lu Xuan thought in his heart.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, what are your plans after the banquet is over? Should you go shopping in the Black Mercury Cave and buy some special spiritual liquid, or should you go back to the Thunder Star Cave with the other fellow Taoists?"

While he was thinking secretly, Ye Xuanyin next to him asked aloud.

"I'm not very interested in those spiritual liquids. It's hard to get acquainted with so many powerful fellow Taoists. Let's go back to Leimingxing Cave with a few fellow Taoists and ask some of them for advice on cultivation issues on the way."

"When I have the chance to come over next time, I can take a nice walk in the Black Mercury Cave."

Lu Xuan originally planned to walk around under the Black Water after the banquet and experience the different customs and customs in the Black Mercury Cave.

But after learning that a monk had evil intentions towards him, he immediately changed his mind.

After leaving the Star Envoy Cave, if you act alone, you will easily be attacked by the monks behind the scenes, but if you travel with a few alchemy monks, the monks hiding in the dark will have to weigh their own strength.

"If you have a thigh hug, you must hold it tightly. This is an emergency escape."

"As for the special spiritual liquid in the Black Mercury Cave, there will be more opportunities in the future."

"If nothing else, if you really want to get it, you can at least get it from the Hailou Chamber of Commerce."

Lu Xuan understood what was big and what was small, life was at stake, and it was most important to get through this wave of risks first.

He followed closely behind the five alchemy cultivators in the Lei Xingxing Cave, asking questions from time to time, as if he was listening attentively.

After emerging from the depths of the black water, they flew to the Thunder Star Cave together.

After a while, no opportunity seemed to be found. The fluctuations in the spiritual energy of the Qingying Yuyi gradually subsided, and the tingling sensation on the skin also disappeared.

"It seems like we should give up."

"However, I will keep this account in mind for now, and I will settle it with you in the future."

Lu Xuan's expression remained unchanged and he felt much more relaxed.
