Chapter 230: Chapter 228 Demonic Vine l

Translator: 549690339

Hearing Lu Xuan’s words, the collapsing figure of the giant Strange Ghost Vine stopped in an instant, slowly turning around.

Lu Xuan felt the vine’s inner hesitation and continued speaking.

“You must know, my background is similar to that of the cultivators who previously entered the Medicine Garden, we all belong to the sect behind this Blessed Land.”

“But what makes me different from them is that I am kindhearted, treating the Spirit Plants not merely as tools in the path of cultivation, but as equals, meticulously nurturing and striving to make them grow.”

“It is because of this that I could acquire this very rare Qingmu Origin Energy.”

He spoke sincerely, while light green spiritual power constantly enveloped his fingers.

“If you still do not trust me enough, I can make an oath, promising to properly care for the Strange Ghost Vine seedling you will nurture.”

Hearing Lu Xuan’s words, the hesitant giant Strange Ghost Vine finally made its decision.

What Lu Xuan said was true. Even if the newly born Vine’s rank increased, it would still be imprisoned in this world, merely a subordinate to the sect behind the Blessed Land.

If it were to be found by the Core Formation cultivators who control the Blessed Land, it might be killed right then and there.

The Qingmu Origin Energy transmitted by Lu Xuan made it feel a deep kinship, which was greatly beneficial to the Spirit Plant.

Thinking of this, a thought stretched out from the depths of the giant green-blackvine’s heart.

“Okay.”

Seeing its nod of agreement, Lu Xuan immediately made an oath, promising to take good care of the Strange Ghost Vine seedling within the bud.

As soon as his words fell, numerous arm-thick tendrils emerged from the giant Ghost Vine, exuding a faint, black spiritual light. The light gathered into small rivers and flowed back into the bud at the top.

The bud regained its stability and, like breathing, expanded and contracted. More and more light-green Spiritual Power burst from Lu Xuan’s fingers, continuously encouraging the giant Strange Ghost Vine.

“Keep going, keep going! The birth is almost here! Press on a little more!”

The spiritual light flowing from the green-black tendrils became more and more abundant as streams gathered into rivers, flowing unceasingly into the bud.

“When I was solving the birthing problems of the Spirit Crane and the Yin Yang Koi Fish before, I was just strategizing, but now I’m assisting the labor.”

“I have consolidated my title as Beast Doctor Genius once more.”

Lu Xuan muttered silently.

In a short while, the tendrils of the huge Strange Ghost Vine began to wither visibly. Soon, pieces of dried bark-like substances dropped.

A weak thought that concealed a strong life force was initiated from the bud. Then, the black-green petals slowly opened one by one. Coiled like a small snake, a tiny tendril lay quietly in the center.

The tendril was dull and unnoticeable, vastly different from the ferocious and terrifying figure of its parent.

The moment it appeared, the decomposing speed of the towering giant Strange Ghost Vine accelerated tenfold, like an avalanche in its last moments. In the blink of an eye, it disintegrated completely.

Only a single tendril was barely supporting the fully bloomed bud, delivering it to Lu Xuan.

Immediately after, the tendril circled around the new Strange Ghost Vine seedling from bottom to top, rapidly disintegrating.

At the last moment of disintegration, Lu Xuan felt a strong sense of hope and expectation from within the vine.

After the giant Strange Ghost Vine completely disappeared, the small tendril lying quietly in the bud came to life. A light, grey tendril extended out as if to experience and observe the world around it.

“You can follow me in the future. I’ll take you to the Great Sect to see the world.”

Lu Xuan said with a smile, reaching his right hand towards the small light grey tendril.

The grey vine picked up a familiar spiritual power from Lu Xuan and, following his palm, ascended into his wide sleeve.

In the end, only a small segment of its body was left outside.

“First, have some Spirit Fruits.”

Lu Xuan took out a Spirit Fruit from his bag and placed it in front of the light-grey vine tendril.

Feeling the enticing scent of the Spirit Fruit, the light-grey vine tendril hesitated not and bite it right in the middle.

No one knows how it eats, but within a few breaths’ time, the Spirit Fruit, skin, and all, was entirely swallowed.

Lu Xuan’s mind was focused on the unsatisfied light-grey vine tendril as a thought flashed through his mind.

“The Demonic Vine, a fifth rank demonic plant, is made from generations of accumulated essence from the Strange Ghost Vine. It is fond of spiritual seeds, all parts of a plant, and demon beast meat. It has an extremely sharp ability to detect seeds.”

“It is proficient in various wood-based techniques, and its attacks are extremely powerful.”

“Those not of our kind will have a unique taste.”

“A fifth-rank demonic plant!”

The thought that emerged in his mind surprised Lu Xuan.

He never thought that the Strange Ghost Vine, which was originally a fourth – grade spirit plant, would have a higher-ranking demonic plant derived from it.

“With life’s spiritual nature and essence, it managed to cross the rank. If the essence beneath the spring had a spirit, it should feel very reassured.”

Lu Xuan couldn’t help but sigh, he guessed that the Qingmu Origin Energy he transmitted played a big part in helping it cross from fourth to fifth rank.

After all, that originated from the life essence condensed by the fifth-grade Qing Xuan deer before its death, which is very beneficial for plants like Spirit Plants.

“Demonic Vine, even the name has changed.”

Lu Xuan looked at the small segment of the light grey vine tendril sticking out from his sleeve, feeling satisfied.

Although this is a demonic plant, which has habits similar to ordinary beasts, it is entirely his first fifth-rank plant.

The Holy Baby Fruit he previously obtained was also fifth rank, but it was an offspring plant, and most of the ownership was still in the hands of that hidden cultivator.

“Alright, you should have seen everything that just happened.” “The new life that your leader had derived, is now entrusted to me. I will take it away from this medicine garden, going to another world.”

“If you want to leave together, I can take you along the way. If you want to stay in this medicine garden, I won’t force you.”

Lu Xuan sent a thought into the remaining Strange Ghost Vine plants.

Receiving a fifth-rank demonic plant, he was in high spirits and offered its kin two choices.

If they wanted to leave the medicine garden, he could take them away unharmed and place them on the mountain peaks of his sect or in the small courtyard of Sword Gate Town.

With the Life Bag, he wasn’t worried that they would lose their vitality along the way.

However, these Strange Ghost vines didn’t appreciate Lu Xuan’s kindness. They silently burrowed into the Spirit Soil and quickly disappeared from his sight.

Lu Xuan didn’t force them. If they were seedlings, he might have considered abducting them, nurture them until maturity, and get the Light Cluster reward. But since they were already mature, nurturing them wouldn’t earn him a Light Cluster, so their value in his eyes naturally dropped significantly.

He crammed the Demonic Vine Seedling hidden in his sleeve and dashed towards the other side of the medicine garden.

A moment later, the light-grey vine tendril crawled out from his sleeve and eagerly extended towards the front left direction of Lu Xuan, showing an eager look.

“Are you saying that there are high-grade spiritual seeds ahead?”

Lu Xuan asked the Demonic Vine Seedling with some doubt.
