Chapter 380 - Know Yourself

  Although Gu Jiankong and Lu Xuan had only met once, he was deeply impressed by him.

  The sect's fifth-grade spirit beast Qingxuan Deer was dying. Due to its deep obsession, it might be at risk of alienation after death.

  The inner disciples who were good at cultivating spirit plants and spirit beasts were at a loss, but they didn't expect Lu Xuan to jump out halfway.

  He had just been promoted to an inner disciple, but he gave Gu Jiankong and others an unexpected surprise, easily dissolving Qingxuan Deer's obsession.

  "Being able to break through to the middle stage of foundation building in such a short time shows that your roots, comprehension, and luck are extraordinary. If you keep it up, you may have a chance to form a pill."

  He exclaimed in admiration.

  "I dare not, I still have self-knowledge. It is extremely lucky to be able to break through to the middle stage of foundation building."

  Lu Xuan's acting skills were soaring, and his expression was seven parts cautious and three parts uneasy.

  "Some time ago, the sect took out a lot of mutated spiritual plants from the blessed land. I heard that we have basically understood it. Junior Brother Lu played a great role in this process, so I took the initiative to invite you to the blessed land."

  "If we bring the spiritual plants back to the sect as before, the efficiency will be too low and the consumption will be huge, so it is better for Junior Brother to come."

  Gu Jiankong said gently.

  "It is my honor to help the sect solve problems."

  Lu Xuan looked sincere and spoke sincerely.

  "Okay, you, nephew Lu, will be in charge of those mutated spiritual plants. Your main task is to understand their origins and figure out their peculiarities and uses."

  "I will send two more inner disciples in the middle stage of foundation building to help you, nephew."

  "As for the safety issue, this camp is located behind the three sects' cultivators. The surrounding area has been swept by us. There are more than one fourth-grade protective formation in the camp, so there is no need to worry about safety."

  "I also have a jade talisman. After it is activated, I can sense it within a thousand miles. If nephew Lu encounters an emergency, you can use it to ask me for help."

  After Gu Jiankong said this, a small jade sword talisman flew out from the sword energy shadow around him and came to Lu Xuan.

  "Thank you, uncle Gu!"

  Lu Xuan hurriedly thanked him, and this time it was sincere and heartfelt.

  After all, although he already had various rare treasures, talismans, etc. in his hands, who would refuse the active help of a Jindan Zhenren?

  He put away the small jade sword talisman very solemnly.

  Li Zhen and the others were shocked when they saw this, and they had a more thorough understanding of Lu Xuan's position in the blessed land.

  There were not many people in the blessed land who could make a Jindan Zhenren leave a communication talisman.

  After Gu Jiankong explained clearly, he left a field of imprisoned mutated spiritual plants, and disappeared in a flash.

  A moment later, two Tianjian Sect monks came to Lu Xuan's room. One was tall and had a simple face, and the other was of medium build, ordinary appearance, and sharp eyes.

  Both of them were in the middle stage of foundation building. They were the two inner disciples that Gu Jiankong left for Lu Xuan to help.

  "Please take care of me in the future, Junior Brother Lu."

  The tall monk was named Feng Yu. He was respectful on the surface, but in fact he was indignant in his heart.

  He was hunting mutated spiritual plants, and suddenly Gu Jiankong sent a message to him, asking him to come over and help a spiritual plant master.

  Both were in the middle stage of foundation building. One had rich fighting experience and could easily deal with several monsters of the same level, while the other was just an ordinary spiritual plant master. The difference in strength between the two was huge. How could he be willing?

  But this was the order of his uncle who was in the Jindan stage. He did not have the courage to disobey, so he had to come here honestly and obey Lu Xuan's orders.

  The other person was named Zhang Ruiping. He had similar thoughts to Feng Yu and had no choice but to accept this fact.

  "Thank you, senior brothers. Please take care of each other."

  Lu Xuan said politely. With his superb acting skills, he could see the little tricks in the hearts of the two at a glance, but he did not care at all. As long as the two did not affect him, he would let them do whatever they wanted.   

  The next day, Lu Xuan arrived at a spacious stone house early in the morning.

  In the stone house, there were dozens of different varieties of mutated spiritual plants, with all kinds of strange shapes, but because they were in a state of confinement, they had no chance to show their aggression.

  "There are mutated spiritual plants such as dragon pattern wood and flowing fire wood, but it's a pity that I didn't see the fourth-grade mutated arrow vine, which seems to be quite rare."

  Lu Xuan walked slowly and carefully observed each spiritual plant.

  Among these spiritual plants, he had seen more than half of them in the sect, and he knew their origins and uses very well.

  However, he was hiding his incompetence, and only occasionally reminded Liu Su and others when he was in the sect, and did not disclose the detailed information of the mutated spiritual plants.

  He put all the spiritual plants in different categories, and when he was about to remove the restriction on a mutated spiritual plant, Feng Yu and the others walked in.

  "Good morning, two senior brothers."

  "Junior brother Lu, you are here so early."

  "I am curious about these spiritual plants, so I came a little early."

  "If you two senior brothers don't mind, why don't we start now?"

  Lu Xuan saw the two nod and continued.

  "What you two brothers have to do is very simple. After I release the restriction on the spiritual plant, be ready to respond to the attack of the spiritual plant at any time, so that the mutated spiritual plant is under our control." "

  In addition, occasionally you will need your help to record the experimental phenomena and do some small tests."

  As he spoke, he walked around the mutated spiritual plant.

  A crisp sound of ding-dong-dong came from the waist.

  Feng Yu and the others looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a small jade sword talisman hanging on Lu Xuan's waist. As he walked, it swayed and was very conspicuous.

  The two of them stared at each other.

  After entering the sect for dozens or hundreds of years, they would naturally not feel unfamiliar with this small sword talisman.

  At a glance, they could recognize that this was the unique communication talisman of Gu Jiankong, the Jindan Zhenren of the Tianjian Sect.

  But how could it appear on Lu Xuan?

  Feng Yu and the others looked at each other, with confusion in their eyes.

  An ordinary spiritual plant master could get the small sword talisman of the Jindan uncle, but the two of them could not get it, which meant that in Gu Jiankong's eyes, the two who claimed to be extraordinary were far less important than Lu Xuan.

  The reality was so cruel that the two men instantly recognized themselves.

  "Brother Lu, this restriction looks familiar to me. Let me help you to remove it."

  "Yes, yes, Brother Lu will just watch from the side. If you need anything, just let us know."

  The two men walked forward enthusiastically. One of them, with his spiritual power surging, took the initiative to remove the restriction on the surface of a mutant spiritual plant in front of Lu Xuan.

  The other took out talismans and magic tools, with an alert expression, ready to prevent a sudden attack from the mutant spiritual plant that broke the restriction.

  After noticing the Jindan Zhenren token on Lu Xuan's waist, the attitudes of the two men changed greatly, and even the address was upgraded from "junior brother" to "senior brother".

  Lu Xuan was calm and secretly delighted. With two fellow disciples in the middle stage of foundation building who were wholeheartedly assisting him, his subsequent research process would naturally be much easier.
