Chapter 188 Lihuo Dragon
“Jian Qing, please wait here for a moment. I have also invited some of my classmates that I have met before.”
Lu Xuan ordered.
Baili Jianqing nodded, restrained his words and actions, and stood behind Lu Xuan waiting quietly.
Not long after, a young man with a determined expression fell from a spiritual crane. It was Lu Xuan’s former neighbor on the other side of the cave, Xu Shaoze.
“Uncle Lu, congratulations on being promoted to the foundation building stage!”
Xu Shaoze showed an eager smile on his face from a distance and said loudly.
“Thank you, Fellow Daoist Xu.”
Considering the friendship between the two, Lu Xuan did not treat him as a master-nephew, so he stood up and greeted him.
The two exchanged a few words and then fell into silence.
Xu Shaoze stood behind Lu Xuan, looking at his tall figure, with a hint of hidden envy deep in the corners of his eyes.
He was a casual cultivator. In order to gain some opportunities, he often went into dangerous situations and fought life and death with various monsters and evil spirits. When he got acquainted with Lu Xuan, after getting to know him a little, he just regarded Lu Xuan as a person who was keen on spiritual planting. , a fellow disciple who is not good at fighting.
But he never expected that Lu Xuan would break through to the foundation-building realm silently, which shocked him greatly when he received the news. It took him a long time to calm down.
He secretly adjusted his breathing, got rid of distracting thoughts in his mind, and determined on the path he was on.
While waiting, Yao Qing and Huang Yuan also arrived one after another, but what surprised Lu Xuan was that each of them was followed by a foundation-building monk.
Behind Yao Qing was the gentle female cultivator who cultivated the mutated Burning Origin Wood. As for Huang Yuan, the foundation-building cultivator he brought was Yang Qingfeng, a middle-aged Confucian scholar who raised a hybrid black-scaled dragon.
“Junior Brother Lu, this is your fault. For such a big event as breaking through to foundation building, why don’t you invite old acquaintances?”
“It was Huang Yuan who told me that I found out about your happy event. I came with him to celebrate for Junior Brother You.”
The middle-aged Confucian scholar said gently, and the gentle female cultivator beside him agreed with a smile.
“It’s my fault, my fault. I’ll punish myself with three cups later. Senior Brother Yang, Senior Sister He, please come into my humble room and take a look.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
He led two mid-stage foundation-building monks and four Qi-training monks through several large formations and arrived at the mountain courtyard.
“The aura is rich and beautiful both inside and outside. Junior brother has a very good vision.”
The middle-aged Confucian scholar climbed all the way up, looked at the scene on the roadside, and commented with a smile.
The six of them sat down in the outer hall. Lu Xuan brought out preserved fruits and snacks for them. He also made six pots of hot spiritual tea and each placed a piece of pure spiritual tea.
“I don’t have anything good to entertain you at home. I only have a pot of bad tea. Please try it.”
“Good tea!”
The middle-aged Confucian scholar put down the teapot in his hand, with an afterthought look on his face.
“The source of this tea is extraordinary. It should be the second-grade Qingmiaoling tea. It has the effect of calming the mind and wiseness, and resisting the invasion of evil spirits. You juniors should digest it well and don’t waste it.”
Hearing this, Baili Jianqing and the other four nodded in unison, savoring the refreshing scent of Qingmiaoling tea leaves.
The few of them were sipping tea while chatting about Lu Xuan’s experience and feelings when he broke through the foundation building.
Mainly Lu Xuan, the middle-aged Confucian scholar and the gentle female cultivator were talking. Huang Yuan and others occasionally echoed, respectfully and did not dare to go beyond the step.
“Junior Brother Lu, I came here in a hurry without preparation. I heard that you have a strong interest in raising spiritual beasts and have experience in raising dragons, so I brought you a dragon egg.”
“This dragon egg is born from a third-grade Lihuo dragon. It can break out of its shell after hatching for a while. If it is raised properly, it can break through to the level of a third-grade spiritual beast.”
“Senior Brother Yang, this gift is too valuable.”
Lu Xuan waved his hand and refused.
“If it were an adult dragon, I would be a little reluctant to part with it, but this is just a dragon egg. It will require you, junior brother, to spend a lot of time and effort to cultivate it. It will only cost you a few hundred spiritual stones at most. It’s nothing.”
He first met Lu Xuan because of the anorexia problem of the black-scaled dragon. After trying many methods, he listened to Huang Yuan’s suggestion and invited Lu Xuan to come over to help solve the problem.
He didn’t have much hope at first, but Lu Xuan gave him a big surprise, using Qi training to solve the anorexia symptoms of the third-grade black-scaled dragon.
Now, the black-scaled dragon has returned to its normal form, its strength has increased rapidly, and it is slowly realizing the outstanding talents of its two excellent bloodlines.
He knew that Lu Xuan was not good at fighting, but he decided that with Lu Xuan’s accomplishments in spiritual plants and beasts, he could definitely find a good position in the sect and have the strength to take charge of the sect’s logistics, so he came up with the idea of getting acquainted.
The middle-aged Confucian scholar forced the dragon egg to Lu Xuan, but Lu Xuan couldn’t refuse and had to accept it.
His demand for adult dragons is smaller. Although he does not need to spend a lot of time and resources to raise them, it also means that there is no light group reward, so it is better to start with dragon eggs.
“Junior Brother Lu, this is the spiritual seed I condensed from a third-grade Burning Yuan Tree earlier. I give it to you as a gift to Junior Brother. Please don’t dislike it.”
“Thank you, Senior Sister He. Junior Brother deserves to receive such a rare spiritual seed.”
Lu Xuan hurriedly thanked him.
Huang Yuan and others also took out their own gifts. However, because Lu Xuan had already established the foundation and they were only in the Qi training realm, the gifts did not pursue high value and surprise.
Lu Xuan cooked himself and made a large table of delicious food for six people.
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and the six people left one after another.
Lu Xuan tidied up and began to enter his new life as a spiritual planter.
He first untied the young wind falcon and the cloud-walking lynx, allowing the second child to move freely in the mountain instead of being confined to the narrow cave like before.
He even promised that when their strength improves, they can move freely near the mountain without being restricted.
With Lu Xuan’s approval, the young wind falcon flapped its light blue wings and flew freely in the sky of the mountain peak.
The speed is getting faster and faster, almost becoming a cyan phantom, which seems to have been in the cage for a long time and soars into the sky.
The entire round belly slowly became streamlined during the rapid flight, trying its best to reduce the body resistance.
With such a big belly, the young wind falcon lives up to its name as a flying spirit beast, with an agility and lightness that is extremely inconsistent with its body shape.
As for the cloud-walking lynx, it originally lived in the mountains and forests. After returning to nature, it ran quickly among the forest trees and boulders. Its thick soles like white clouds landed silently. Compared with before, it looked a little more wild.
Lu Xuan placed the Lihuo dragon egg given by the middle-aged Confucian scholar on the spiritual vein node, and summoned the young wind falcon flying high in the sky.
“I’ll give you a task. From today on, spend one to two hours every day using your round belly to hatch this dragon egg.”
The young wind falcon stared with black eyes and nodded its little head slightly.
Lu Xuan patrolled the mountain peaks, looking at the flowers and plants all over the mountains and fields, thinking about what to do next.
“The most important thing is to go to the Sinong Palace to exchange for spiritual seed resources in the foundation-building realm. It is best to get several methods of condensing spiritual seeds.
There is also the option of going to the Sutra Pavilion to choose a few suitable foundation-building techniques, cultivate more spiritual fields, and, if conditions permit, get a new formation. The second-grade Kirigakure formation cannot cover such a large area. “
