Chapter 1055: Hearing the news
"We have to go to the Thunder Spark Cave to harvest a wave of light."
Lu Xuan left the Yin and Yang Fruit near the Eighth Level Palace and decided to go back to the Thunder Star Cave to take a look.
Most of the spiritual plants grown there are at the fifth level and below. After so many years, they have probably matured a lot.
"Not to mention anything else, the replenishment of the sacred tree green pot requires a large number of third-grade spiritual grass beads."
"Also, there are several high-level spiritual plants in Feng Yuan Star Cave that are almost fully mature."
He activated the Zhoutianxing Sword Fighting Formation, entered the giant sword boat, and quickly rushed to the Yunxu Domain.
The Giant Sword Boat is indeed a seventh-grade flying treasure specially created by Baigong Jianfeng. It has the ability to travel through the void and has extremely strong protective capabilities. He entered the Liyang Realm very smoothly.
Thunder Spark Cave.
Lu Xuan walked slowly in the subtle thunder light in the sky, took a deep breath, and felt a sense of intimacy from the bottom of his heart.
When he arrived near the cave, he was about to open the Mysterious Crystal Formation when suddenly, three streams of light flew towards him.
Lu Xuan looked as usual, waiting for the three of them to approach.
When the three people appeared, he recognized their identities from the standard robes they wore. They were all patrolling monks of Thunder Star Cave.
Among them, the first one has the early stage of Dan Formation, and the two following are both at the foundation level.
"Chen Yin, the guard of Thunder Star Cave, has met Fellow Daoist Lu."
When the pill-forming young man saw Lu Xuan, he couldn't help but be startled. Then he seemed to have thought of something and bowed his hands in a salute.
"Greetings to Senior Lu!"
Two people followed him and greeted him respectfully.
"Chen Dao is friendly, you two little friends don't need to be so polite."
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
"When I was patrolling nearby, I noticed a monk approaching. When I came over, I didn't expect that it was Fellow Daoist Lu returning from Dongxuan Sword Sect."
Chen Yin gave a simple explanation, vaguely indicating that he often patrols near the cave.
"I have been in Jianzong for many years, and I have been thinking about some of the spiritual plants planted in the cave, so I came back to take a look."
Lu Xuan said casually.
"By the way, I wonder if there has been anything unusual in Lu's cave in the past few years?"
"Friend Lu Dao, please rest assured that the area around the cave has been closely monitored by the guards of Lei Xingxing Cave and is a key patrol area.
As long as I am waiting, I will not let some young people break into the Taoist cave. "
Chen Yin heard this and said seriously.
"Furthermore, the entire Tianxing Cave monks know that this cave belongs to fellow Taoists. Give them a hundred courages and they will not dare to be greedy for the treasures of the inner disciples of the Dongxuan Sword Sect."
He complimented without leaving any trace.
"Haha, thank you for all the hard work, Fellow Daoist Chen, for so many years."
"Here are three bottles of ice marrow brew brewed by Lu himself to relieve the fatigue of several fellow Taoists."
Lu Xuan smiled heartily, and three bottles of spiritual brew exuding a chill flew to Chen Yin.
Although the cave has formations, grass puppets and other protections, the presence of Thunder Star Cave guards does prevent him from unnecessary troubles, and a little spiritual brew is nothing.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lu."
Chen Yin couldn't refuse, so he had to accept three bottles of spiritual brew.
After Lu Xuan waited for them to leave, he came to the entrance of the cave and opened the Mysterious Crystal Array.
As soon as he entered the cave, a strange laughter mixed with thunder reached his ears.
Immediately afterwards, a stream of silvery white light flew over, and the Thunder Ghost Lord with a green face, fangs, and a large bulging tumor on his waist appeared in front of Lu Xuan.
It flew around Lu Xuan rapidly and kept beating the big drum around his waist. It was obvious that he was extremely excited.
Soon, at the entrance of the spiritual field on one side of the cave, a grass puppet walked towards Lu Xuan quickly with two slender grass legs.
It stopped in front of Lu Xuan, its empty eyes staring closely, and its vague mouth made of gray and black straw rope seemed to have an upward arc.
Lu Xuan peered into it and could feel the joy hidden deep in his heart under its dull appearance.
"Yes, the spiritual field is well protected."
Lu Xuan nodded in approval.
The grass puppet remained motionless, and in the thought passed over, the excitement suddenly turned into a firm idea:
"Guard the spiritual field!"
Then, without hesitation, he stepped back into the spiritual field with his two slender legs.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh, looking at the Lihuo Jiao and other spiritual beasts flying from the depths of the cave.
After some comfort, he was about to enter the spiritual field and reap the reward of the light group.
Suddenly, a familiar aura appeared outside the cave, and the voice of Qi Wuheng, the Thunder Spark Cave Star Messenger, reached his ears.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, why didn't you tell your old friend when you came back from Sword Sect?"
Qi Wuheng said with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"
Lu Xuan turned around and ducked outside the cave, welcoming Qi Wuheng in.
He guessed that Chen Yin, whom he had just met, should have informed him, otherwise he would not have known about his return to Thunder Star Cave so quickly.
"Fellow Taoist, please take this into consideration. Everything is fine, but I see that my aura is getting stronger and stronger, and I am already far ahead of Qi."
Qi Wuheng sighed with emotion, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.
When he first met Lu Xuan, he had not yet broken through to the realm of pill formation. Unexpectedly, more than a hundred years later, not only had he been promoted to the realm of pill formation, but he had also left himself far behind.
Naturally, he attributed all this to Lu Xuan becoming a disciple of Dongxuan Sword Sect.
"It's a lucky break. I just got some treasures to enhance my spiritual power from the elders of the Sword Sect."
Lu Xuan had already started preparing to break through to the Nascent Soul, so he didn't hide much, revealing his spiritual power as having just broken through to the level of perfect pill formation.
"It's estimated that it won't be long before I can be promoted to Nascent Soul."
Qi Wuheng sighed with a complicated tone.
"It's still far away, Fellow Daoist Qi. We haven't seen each other for so many years. Let's have a good drink."
Lu Xuan smiled and changed the subject and introduced Qi Wuheng into the small courtyard.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, if I don't ask for help if I have a spirit brewing, Guo must have some opinions in his heart."
Immediately afterwards, another old voice came from outside the cave. It was Guo Bingqiu who was not far from the cave. Lu Xuan had gone to his place many times to gather with other monks.
After that, Ye Xuanyin also came outside the cave.
Familiar figures got the news of Lu Xuan's return from nowhere and rushed over from all directions.
Lu Xuan simply gathered everyone together and presented plates of spiritual fruits and bottles of spiritual brew.
Everyone sat together, and Lu Xuan learned a lot of news about Liyang from their mouths, and they were particularly interested in what Lu Xuan said about Jianzong's practice and many aspects of life.
"By the way, why don't you see fellow Taoist Lei Zhenglei? Are you practicing hard in seclusion or going out to explore the secret realm?"
Lu Xuan glanced around and asked curiously.
"Fellow Daoist Lei..."
Ye Xuanyin's face showed hesitation.
"What's wrong with Fellow Daoist Lei?"
Seeing her look like this, Lu Xuan had a bad feeling.
"Fellow Daoist Lei has not been able to find an opportunity to break through to the middle stage of the pill formation, and he is confused. A few years ago, he learned that there was a dangerous secret realm on the seventh floor of the Feng Yuan Star Cave, from which a monk once obtained a treasure that enhanced his spiritual power, so he invited Several alchemy monks went into it to explore together."
"I haven't returned to the cave for so long, and there's no news. It's possible that something unexpected happened."
Guo Bingqiu said in a deep voice.
"Hey, I hope Fellow Daoist Lei can return safely."
"How can you enter a dangerous place like the seventh floor of Feng Yuan Star Cave so easily?"
Lu Xuan sighed.
Even if he had the incarnation of Ling Gu, he would not dare to let him enter the seventh floor easily. Unexpectedly, Lei Zheng was willing to take such a big risk to enter it.
The two have known each other for many years. Lu Xuan was with him when he first entered the ancient medicine garden, and they often got together later. When he learned that he was in danger, Lu Xuan felt very sorry.
"There is no other way. If you don't make progress in your cultivation, you will retreat. It can only be considered that the blessings of Lei Taoist friend are not deep enough."
Guo Bingqiu sighed, and the mood of everyone present was somewhat affected and fell into silence.
