Jiang Dong was confused when he suddenly heard Uncle Xu exclaim: "Ling He!"
"Spirit lotus?" Jiang Dong thought about it after hearing this. Herbs with this name were also cultivated in Xu Bo's pool, but it was not like this. Instead, it was just like an ordinary lotus. After being stimulated by spiritual energy, it had extraordinary properties.
With its spirituality and medicinal properties, it can be used to refine elixirs that are helpful in cultivating the soul. "Isn't this what Ling He is like?"
Xu Bo rubbed his hands excitedly and said: "The spiritual lotus cultivated by me is an ordinary, short-lived spiritual grass. It is only twenty or thirty years old. It can only be used as an ingredient in general elixirs. Of course, it will not have this spiritual grass."
The spirituality of the lotus. And the tree we see now has the consciousness to hide its body shape, which means that it has already reached the foundation-building stage of our cultivation, derived the primary soul, and can perform simple
Thinking, that’s why he hides his figure from us when he sees us. As far as I know, spiritual grass with such ability has been growing for at least two thousand years!"
"Hiss..." Jiang Dong took a breath, darling! Two thousand years! What is this concept? In other words, this spiritual lotus had already begun to grow during the Han Dynasty!
"Linghe itself is a spiritual grass that helps strengthen the soul. After it grows for thousands of years, its hidden medicinal properties will be revealed, which can solve all problems about the soul, such as..." After saying this, Xu Bo paused for a moment
, looked at Jiang Dong very meaningfully and said: "For example, the bottleneck of cultivation!"
"Ah?" Jiang Dong was even more surprised. He didn't expect that this spiritual grass was actually the solution to the bottleneck that he had dreamed of!
Jiangdong took off his shoes and socks and was immediately ready to go into the water to pick this spiritual lotus, because it was too tempting for him! With it, Jiangdong could break through the bottleneck of cultivation and prepare to hit the later stage of Qi refining!
Uncle Xu quickly stopped Jiang Dong to prevent him from entering the water rashly, fearing that an accident would happen, because there are often other creatures around this level of spiritual grass that compete with them for spiritual energy to practice, and take the spiritual grass as their own.
Yes, this kind of creature is called a companion grass beast. They are generally spiritual beasts that have been practicing for hundreds of years, and those spiritual beasts that have been practicing for more than a thousand years have already eaten the spiritual grass and turned into human forms and gone elsewhere.
Just now, Uncle Xu used his spiritual sense to scan and detected that there were other people appearing in front of him. Now it seemed that they were probably the spiritual beasts guarding the spiritual lotus tree. But what puzzled Uncle Xu was that he clearly sensed that it was a humanoid creature.
, instead of a spiritual beast crawling on four legs, could it be that what I just sensed is a person? Which hermit with advanced cultivation planted this spiritual lotus here? Otherwise, how could a spiritual lotus grow in this cave?
Where are you coming? Someone must have deliberately planted the seeds of Ling He here.
If there really is a hermit here, then his cultivation level must be much higher than that of Xu Bo! It would be effortless for him to deal with Xu Bo and Jiangdong. Wouldn't his situation be very dangerous?
But then when he thought about it, Uncle Xu felt that he was worrying too much, because he could find that monk, and that monk who was more advanced than himself could also find him, so the person guarding this spiritual lotus tree may not necessarily be a monk.
After careful consideration, Uncle Xu decided to meditate here first to restore his own state and vitality, and then find a way to pick this spiritual lotus tree.
Jiang Dong thought about it for a while and felt that it was the case. There was no way that there would be something like this treasure left here and that someone would take a fancy to it and protect it. So he calmed down his impatience and began to meditate honestly.
After more than half an hour, the spiritual energy accumulated in this small cave was absorbed by the two of them, and they could no longer feel such rich spiritual energy.
"Let's do it." Uncle Xu had the magic sword and magic talisman ready in his hand, just in case. Jiang Dong also mobilized 120,000 yuan of caution to pick the spiritual lotus plant hidden in the water.
The puddle was not too deep, and the water could only reach the top of his thighs. Jiangdong carefully approached the unclear blur in the center of the puddle little by little.
Closer, closer! Jiang Dong held his breath involuntarily, feeling extremely nervous, fearing that Cheng Yaojin would appear on the way. Uncle Xu stayed on the shore, with his consciousness wide open, monitoring the cave and the rock cracks everywhere, letting himself
Able to react immediately when an accident occurs.
Jiang Dong walked up to Ling He and found nothing unusual, so he quietly stretched out his hands to explore under the water, and felt towards the blur.
Although Ling He, who was hiding his figure, had some sense of autonomy, he had no means of attack. He could only retract his figure into the water to block the sight of outsiders. However, the one who touched it in Jiangdong
In an instant, Linghe could no longer hide it, and suddenly appeared, startling Jiang Dong who was concentrating on it, and he staggered and almost sat in the water.
Suddenly a ray of light shot out from Ling He's body, illuminating the cave walls with colorful colors.
Only then did Jiang Dong and Xu Bo see the true face of this spiritual lotus. Although ordinary lotus flowers come in many colors, one flower can only have one color, but this lotus mixed various colors into its only flower.
It can be placed on the lamp, and it can also emit a faint light, which looks extremely beautiful and radiant in the darkness of the cave!
"Hurry up and grab its flower stalk and lift it out of the water!" Xu Bo quickly urged when he saw Jiang Dong standing there stunned.
Jiang Dong's consciousness was pulled back from the dreamy Ling He by Uncle Xu's words. Without thinking, he put both hands together, tightly grasped the handle of the Ling He, and lifted it up with force! However, he did not expect that
What's strange is that the spirit lotus didn't move at all, still quietly coiling its roots under the water.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Dong plunged into the water, touched the root of the spiritual lotus with both hands, kicked on the ground, and pulled it up with all his strength!
Linghe felt the danger under the influence of external force, and his whole body trembled violently, causing the water surface to ripple in circles!
Jiang Dong was so shocked by Linghe that his hands went numb, and he felt like he was about to lose his grip. Thinking that he couldn't do it, he immediately opened his mouth and shouted: "Hey!" Ignoring the pain coming from his hands, he tightly grasped the roots of Linghe.
, using the last bit of strength to pull out the spiritual lotus from the bottom of the water!
As soon as the bubbles exhaled by Jiangdong appeared on the surface of the water, he jumped out of the water, took the linghe he pulled out, and moved towards the shore.
When they reached the shore, Jiang Dong sat down on the ground, choking on water in his lungs, coughing all the time, and his whole body was wet like a drowned rat.
The spiritual lotus tree lost its colorful light when it was pulled out, as if it was dead.
Jiang Dong took the Ling He in his hand and turned it over to look at it. He couldn't put it down because of its rich value. There was actually a lotus root growing at the root of the Ling He. It was just because it was stuck firmly in the ground that Jiang Dong wasted no time.
It took so much effort.
Nothing unexpected happened during the entire process of pulling out the Ling He. Jiang Dong and Xu Bo wondered if their judgment was wrong?
While he was doubting, a low roar like a wild beast came from the crack opposite the rock crack where Xu Bo came out from Jiangdong. Xu Bo quickly recovered from the joy of harvesting the spiritual lotus and let out a sigh again.
The detective went out, and the discovery shocked him.
Two small green shiny light groups were exposed in the rock crevice on the opposite side. They flickered intermittently in the darkness, making people feel confusing like will-o'-the-wisps.
As the two groups of light flashed out from the cracks in the rock, a grass-yellow figure also appeared in front of Xu Bo and Jiang Dong. It turned out to be a monkey about the same size as a human adult, and its body shape was somewhat similar to the Chinese golden monkey.
Uncle Xu understood what he had detected with his spiritual consciousness before he arrived here. It was this monkey! At first, he thought it was some monk living in seclusion here!
The monkey had a fierce look on its face and a very unfriendly face, glaring at the two Jiangdong people! Because these two people stole the spiritual lotus that they had worked hard to guard for hundreds of years. How could this be possible?
Don't make it angry?
Jiang Dong quickly stood up from the ground, holding Linghe with one hand and pulling out the dagger he carried with him from his waist, and faced the monkey with Uncle Xu.
The grass-yellow monkey is definitely not an ordinary monkey, but a spiritual beast. And based on how big it can grow and the pressure it brings in its eyes, Uncle Xu can tell that this monkey's cultivation level is definitely not lower than his own.
!
Before the monkey made any moves, Xu Bo couldn't attack it first because they didn't know the monkey's purpose yet, and there was only one monkey at the scene. Presumably it should also know that based on its ability, it was not Xu Bo Jiangdong's second son.
human opponent.
The monkey stared at Xu Bo and Jiang Dong, and walked slowly towards the puddle. Its upright walking posture was very similar to that of humans, and there was no monkey posture at all. After it walked to the puddle, it sat down
On the ground, he stretched out his front paws to pick up a handful of water from the puddle and brought it to his mouth to drink. Except for the fierce look in his eyes, he didn't look like he was going to attack at all.
Xu Bojiangdong watched the monkey intently to prevent it from attacking unexpectedly. He didn't know what kind of attack a monkey with such a level of cultivation would use, so he could only protect the magic sword and dagger in front of him and wait to see.
What will it do?
After a while, seeing that the monkey made no movement, Jiang Dong squatted down and put on his shoes. However, just when Xu Bo and Jiang Dong were waiting impatiently to relax their nerves, the monkey began to attack! It held a cup in its hand
The burning water suddenly splashed this way.
The two of them reacted immediately and subconsciously lowered their heads and turned around quickly to prevent the water from spilling on themselves.
The monkey took advantage of the gap between their reactions and jumped up. The ten-meter-wide water surface did not block its steps, and it crossed over in a very short time just like floating on water with Qinggong!
