Chapter 476: Chapter 474 Dramatic Change_1
As for Fire Scale Child’s spoils from the Black Demon Abyss, Lu Xuan expressed envy verbally, but in his heart, he didn’t care.
After all the toil and danger, fighting against evil spirits and monsters, contending with the covetous gazes of other cultivators, the treasures he obtained were not as good as his gains from cultivating spiritual plants and collecting light clusters. So, why should he be eager to explore secret realms?
Fire Scale Child came to visit Lu Xuan’s Cave Mansion on the way. Seeing that Lu Xuan had already decided, he didn’t insist, chatted for a while and then hurried off to prepare for the next trip to the secret realm.
Having spent a considerable amount of time in his cave mansion, Lu Xuan needed to fulfill his duty as the Keeper of the Ten Thousand Beast Cave Blessed Land, so he returned.
He planned to harvest the remaining Jade Dew Fruits next time he returned, collecting enough light clusters in one go.
The Blessed Land was normal, and while there were minor frictions and problems among the many spirit beasts, they were all properly resolved by Sun Yun and others, making it unnecessary for Lu Xuan to intervene.
He spent each day cultivating several rare cultivation techniques obtained from light clusters. In his leisure time, he went to visit the old and young White Jade Sky Monkeys, chatted with the Old Dragon Turtle for a while, and then went to the forbidden area from time to time to collect the remains of demon beast’s flesh and blood, and to check on the experimental subjects of the Qingqiu Fox.
Half a month passed. While he was meditating in the Cloud House, a voice transmission broke through the prohibition he casually set up and sounded in his ears.
“Disciple Lu, I have returned.”
Lu Xuan jumped up and rushed out of the house at full speed. At first glance, he saw True Man Cang Wu, whose body was like cast iron, standing in the cloud cluster.
“Welcome back, Master.”
He bowed and saluted.
“The task I needed to do went rather smoothly, so I returned early.”
“In this period, thank you Disciple Lu, for taking care of the blessed land and spirit beasts.”
“It’s my duty, also, I relied heavily on the help of Brother Sun Yun and others.”
Lu Xuan replied humbly.

A glimmer of admiration shined in True Man Cang Wu’s eyes.
“I am well aware of what my disciple has done.”
From the words of Sun Yun and others, True Man Cang Wu had heard about everything Lu Xuan did in the blessed land. They had great approval of Lu Xuan.
At the same time, he also learned that Lu Xuan took care of the Tier 6 Spirit Beasts, White Jade Sky Monkey and Dragon Turtle, both of whom gave high praise to Lu Xuan.
One of their descendants was carefully looked after by Lu Xuan, while the Heart Ape Fruit was entrusted to him for cultivation. As for the Dragon Turtle, the bond between them was as solid as a rock, thanks to the Bliss Sutra and the Beads of Seductive Music.
What surprised True Man Cang Wu further was the Qingqiu Fox’s attitude towards Lu Xuan from the forbidden area.
He, as the keeper of the blessed land, naturally knew everything about the Qingqiu Fox’s experiments on ferocious beasts and evil monsters.
Unexpectedly, this outlandish Tier-5 spirit beast, who goes his own way, also had a high regard for Lu Xuan.
He learned from the Qingqiu Fox that Lu Xuan had done a lot to help in his evil beast experiments, greatly accelerating his process of creating Dao soldiers.
After knowing all this, True Man Cang Wu was naturally extremely satisfied with Lu Xuan.
“Disciple Lu, here are one thousand Sword Marks, and three bottles of Emperor’s Flow that I collected in the past, as a reward for managing the blessed land for me over the past half year.”
A large pile of Sword Marks and three white jade small bottles slowly floated in front of Lu Xuan.
“Thank you, Uncle Master!”
Lu Xuan didn’t hesitate and took the Sword Marks and small bottles, storing them in his storage bag.
With the return of True Man Cang Wu to the Ten Thousand Beast Cave, and his task completed, Lu Xuan bid him and others, including Sun Yun, farewell and returned to his cave mansion.
Just as he arrived at the foot of the mountain from the Array Hall and was about to harvest the remaining thirty or more Jade Dew Fruit light clusters with great anticipation, a Communication Talisman outside the Protective Array caught his attention.
The familiar voice of Baili Jianqing echoed in his ears as he stimulated the spiritual power in the talisman.
“Brother Lu, I have returned from the Black Demon Abyss. This time, I encountered an outbreak of demon envies, and I was not slightly injured, so I left a talisman outside your cave mansion.”
“If you see it, you can come to my cave mansion. I have a spiritual seed to give you.”
The voice showed a few traces of exhaustion, completely devoid of Baili Jianqing’s usual vigor.
Lu Xuan’s face immediately turned gloomy. Ignoring the spiritual plants in the spirit field, he hurried to Baili Jianqing’s cave mansion.
A moment later.
“Brother Lu, you’re here.”
Baili Jianqing saw Lu Xuan, who had rushed over in response to the news. His eyes squinted, a faint smile squeezed out on his pale face.
It was evident that his current condition was not good, a deep wound ran from his chest to his waist, piercing through half of his body. A faint black aura swirled around the wound, smeared with a dark green ointment.
“You lie down.”
Lu Xuan said with a deep voice.
“What happened? You look quite bad, is it serious?”
“It’s not critical, but it’s not easy either.”
“Evil Spite Qi invaded my body. Barely dragging back half a life, I returned to the sect and obtained an ointment to suppress the spread of Evil Spite Qi from a fellow Alchemist. I estimate that it will take some time to fully recover.”
“However, at least I managed to cling onto life.”
Baili Jianqing said with lingering fear.
“Tell me the details.”
Lu Xuan sat quietly on a nearby wooden chair, listening.
“We had entered the Hei Moguan Secret Realm and planned to venture deeper to compete for better treasures. Unexpectedly, a countless number of powerful Evil Spirits emerged in the Secret Land.”
“We had the misfortune of encountering one. It had hundreds of heads and eight sharp long claws. This wound on my chest was left by it.”
“That Evil Spirit was as powerful as a Foundation Establishment Late-term Cultivator. As soon as we made contact, one of our sisters was instantly severed by it.”
“In the end, we each had to use our concealed trump cards to slay that Evil Spirit and fortunately escape from the Secret Land. However, all of us were seriously wounded.”
“It is all thanks to Brother Lu’s Sword Talisman that we made it. With the hold up of the other fellow members, I was able to seize the opportunity to summon the Sword Talisman and succeed in killing the Evil Spirit.”
As he mentioned the lost fellow members, a hint of depression flickered in Baili Jianqing’s eyes.
“It’s good that you survived. As for the Sword Talisman, don’t give it another thought.”
Lu Xuan comforted Baili Jianqing.
“The Evil Spite Qi in you seems very difficult to remove. If we go by your method, it would probably take a long time and this is not conducive to your recovery.”
“I have a pill here that can remove the Evil Spite Qi in your body. You take it quickly.”
He took out the Dust Removal Pill from his storage bag and handed it to Baili Jianqing.
There were still more than thirty Jade Dew Fruits, there was no need to worry about not being able to open the Light Cluster to get the Dust Removal Pill.
“This… it’s too precious. Brother Lu, you should keep it for yourself.”
When the Dust Removal Pill appeared, Baili Jianqing felt the faint black aura around his wound dissipate a little. He naturally understood the rare value of this pill.
“This is a healing pill meant to be used at such times. If not now, then when should it be used?”
“You want me to keep it for myself, are you hoping for me to be in a situation where I have to use the pill?”
Lu Xuan joked.
“I didn’t mean that…”
Baili Jianqing mumbled.
“Then take it right now.”
Lu Xuan said with a determined expression.
Baili Jianqing could no longer refuse and had no choice but to take the Dust Removal Pill.
Just as he swallowed the pill, something suddenly occurred to him, and he turned to Lu Xuan with an excited tone,
“Brother Lu, this time although I nearly lost my life, I did manage to get a bizarre spiritual seed. Can you take a look if it can be cultivated?”
