"Alright, we've met, and there will be parting. Until we meet again," Lu Xuan expressed, clasping his fists toward the Wood Spirit.
Upon entering the Blessed Land, Lu Xuan replenished the depleted Green Wood Source Qi, significantly improving his mood. Green Wood Source Qi was highly beneficial for a Spirit Plant Master like him, enhancing the self-healing ability of the physical body, increasing affinity with spirit plants, and, most importantly, accelerating the growth progress of spirit plants.
Lu Xuan had utilized the Green Wood Source Qi to expedite the growth of the Water Fire Grass he had planted earlier, greatly reducing its maturation time and swiftly confirming the reward type. Though enjoyable to use, the replenishment process was cumbersome, requiring the absorption of a massive amount of spiritual energy from plants. Lu Xuan hadn't found a suitable opportunity until now.
Seeing Lu Xuan preparing to leave, the Wood Spirit, with its blurred features, murmured a few times. Having experienced feeding it, Lu Xuan instantly sensed its thoughts.
The blurred features of the Wood Spirit disappeared in an instant. Soon, a dark branch emerged from the ground dozens of yards away, carrying several deep green wooden pieces, swiftly approaching.
"Is this the gift you want to give me?" Lu Xuan inquired curiously.
The Wood Spirit's features merged into the branch, nodding in response.
Lu Xuan accepted the five deep green wooden pieces. The wood emitted a spiritual light, with circular patterns at the base, indicating their ancient origin.
"Thank you." Lu Xuan swept his spiritual power over the five pieces of wood and placed them in a spare storage bag.
Afterward, he bid farewell to the Wood Spirit. His figure turned into a wisp of green smoke, weaving through the towering trees. The Wood Spirit followed closely, its blurred features appearing on different branches. In its dark eyes, there was a trace of reluctance.
It had stayed in this ancient forest for a long time, but this was the first time it encountered a cultivator who could feed it with such delicious spiritual energy.
Lu Xuan felt a slight sense of guilt in his heart due to the Wood Spirit's behavior, but it quickly disappeared.
"It's just a mutual exchange," he thought to himself, waving to the Wood Spirit following behind.
"Next time, I'll come to see you. And maybe replenish some plant spiritual energy on the way," he added in his mind.
Before leaving, he asked the Wood Spirit for directions and, following its guidance, ran in a particular direction.
"Finally, out of this forest." Half an hour later, Lu Xuan stood outside the ancient forest, looking at the lush trees in front of him, feeling sentimental.
"Junior Lu, I wonder if you have any urgent matters right now?" Qian Dinghong suddenly asked Lu Xuan.
"I go with the flow, wherever I go. I'll try to find an opportunity to get one or two spirit plants." Lu Xuan replied nonchalantly.
"How about joining the two of us in hunting a demonic beast?" Qian Dinghong suggested. "The demonic beast is a Double-Headed Armadillo, with a strength of the third rank. Its scales can be used to forge defensive artifacts."
"We came here because we paid a considerable price to obtain information about the location of the Double-Headed Armadillo from a senior brother at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. We want to see if we can hunt a few and forge a couple of high-quality armors."
"For this, we specifically borrowed a talisman to restrain the Double-Headed Armadillo's earth escape. However, the talisman requires someone to control it at all times, making the attack weak. Just when we met Junior Lu, who is known for being a good person, we thought of inviting you in and sharing the gains later."
Qian Dinghong explained to Lu Xuan, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"The Double-Headed Armadillo is adept at earth escape. It sounds elusive. How do you two plan to capture and kill them?" Lu Xuan inquired curiously.
"The Double-Headed Armadillo feeds on essence iron ore and usually resides in rare spiritual soil areas, nourished by earth spirit energy. This time, we prepared a fourth-grade spiritual mine. We plan to set up a trap around the spiritual mine, and we believe we can lure the Double-Headed Armadillo out."
"Usually resides in rare spiritual soil areas?" Lu Xuan keenly caught the key information.
"In other words, the place where the Double-Headed Armadillo resides has a large amount of rare and spiritual soil?" he
thought to himself, feeling somewhat intrigued.
As the tier of the spirit plants he planted increased, their growth requirements became more complex. For example, the previously obtained fifth-grade Sacred Infant Fruit needed to grow in Yin spiritual soil to ensure good growth speed.
Upon hearing about the habits of the Double-Headed Armadillo, Lu Xuan suddenly became more interested.
"Alright, since the two senior brothers have kindly invited me, I will go with you to lure and hunt the Double-Headed Armadillo." After learning about the specific information of the Double-Headed Armadillo, Lu Xuan nodded in agreement.
The three swiftly traveled and arrived at a desolate and towering stone mountain.
"This is it." Deng Yi whispered, taking out a fist-sized pale purple ore from his storage bag.
