Chapter 225: Strange Ghost Vine in the Medicinal Garden
"Junior Brother Lu, we've arrived at the ancient hall in the blessed land."
Liusu, with her fair complexion, gazed at the majestic ancient hall in front of her, her eyes revealing a hint of eagerness.
"Mmm."
Lu Xuan nodded lightly. After clearing out the nest of the Double-Headed Armadillo demonic beast, he headed straight towards the central area of the blessed land.
During the journey, he encountered some short-sighted demonic beasts, all of which he easily dealt with.
As they were about to reach the ancient hall, Lu Xuan unexpectedly ran into Liusu. The two decided to travel together, providing mutual support.
The ancient hall stood at the center of the blessed land, the primary objective for many cultivators entering the blessed land.
Inside, various rare treasures, high-grade artifacts, techniques, and elixirs would occasionally appear, and there might even be treasures of fifth-grade level.
However, reaching the center of the hall required passing through layers of formations and restrictions. It was challenging for ordinary inner disciples to smoothly pass those tests.
Only those with a strong background and exceptional talents would receive guidance from their elders and sect leader, along with the best equipment to break through those barriers.
Lu Xuan and Liusu only knew the general location of the ancient hall. However, with a hint of optimism, they decided to try their luck.
After all, treasures were meant for those with fate.
Upon entering the hall, the two swiftly traversed through it.
The hall was vast, and the ground and walls seemed to be made of an unknown material. Lu Xuan's spiritual sense encountered significant resistance, like a stone sinking into the ocean.
"The Medicinal Garden..."
Passing by a side hall, Lu Xuan couldn't help but stop his pace.
On the bronze main door of the side hall hung a plaque with two ancient characters written on it.
"Junior Brother Lu, do you want to take a look inside the Medicinal Garden of the ancient hall?" Liusu, noticing Lu Xuan's curiosity, stopped as well and asked.
"I do."
"I want to see what kind of spirit plants the ancient cultivators might have cultivated."Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om
Lu Xuan spoke in a deep voice.
"I've heard from senior brothers and sisters who entered the blessed land before that the Medicinal Garden in the ancient hall has many spirit plants, including some of third-grade quality."
"But it's said to have a large number of mutated demonic plants inside. They appear similar to ordinary spirit plants, but if a cultivator or demonic beast approaches, they will suddenly attack."
Along the way, he discovered some scattered spirit plants, but they were all low-grade varieties, not worth the risk of picking.
Rashly picking them might attract trouble, as demonic plants disguised as normal spirit plants could ambush the cultivator or beast attempting to harvest them.
As Lu Xuan continued deeper, the grade and variety of spirit plants increased significantly, arousing his interest.
Just as he was about to pick one, he suddenly sensed intense spiritual energy fluctuations ahead.
Lu Xuan's thoughts shifted, and he concealed his breath. Like a floating light, he arrived a few breaths away from the commotion.
He saw three inner disciples fiercely battling a peculiar spirit plant.
From the underground, tentacle-like dark-green vines emerged, covered in sharp thorns, emitting an extremely sharp wail, carrying a foul wind, crazily attacking the three cultivators.
The three cooperated seamlessly and quickly dealt with the peculiar spirit plant.
"Junior brother over there, why not come over and chat?"
While clearing the vines, an ordinary-looking youth greeted Lu Xuan's direction.
"Hello, senior brothers. I'm just passing through, hoping to find one or two spirit plants in the Medicinal Garden."
"Junior brother is alone?"
The youth scanned with his spiritual sense and asked in surprise.
"Being alone in this Medicinal Garden, you should be cautious. There are many demonic plants here with strong aggression. Carelessness may lead to their attacks."
Seeing Lu Xuan nod, the youth cautioned him.
"Thank you for the reminder, senior brothers. The peculiar spirit plant you just dealt with, is that what you call demonic plants?"
Lu Xuan looked at the bizarre spirit plant not far away, curious.
"Yes, that demonic plant is called the Strange Ghost Vine. It disguises itself as a normal spirit plant and attacks cultivators or beasts who want to pick them."
"The three of us team up. When encountering normal spirit plants, we pick them easily, and when facing demonic plants, we can collaborate to solve them. Although it's a bit troublesome, it ensures stable gains."
The youth patiently explained.
"So, it's like stepping on landmines?"
"Pushing spirit plants aside without any skill involved."
Lu Xuan secretly commented, bid farewell to the three, and continued deeper into the Medicinal Garden.
