I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 584: Chapter 582: Chaos of the Spirit Lotus _1

Having made the decision to explore Thunder Island together, the five of them sequentially boarded the hovering rock.

As soon as they landed on the floating rock, threads of lightning emerged from the rock’s surface and transmitted into Lu Xuan’s body through his feet.

The power of the lightning wasn’t very strong, but it imposed minor damage to his body. Over time, this could become a significant problem.

A faint spiritual light appeared in Lu Xuan’s eyes. He looked at the flow of spiritual power on the rock’s surface and stepped to the part having the weakest thunder breath.

In this way, the influence of the thunder from the floating rock on him could be almost ignored entirely.

A moment later, they all boarded the first Thunder Island, half expectant, half nervous.

The restrictions on the island were very simple. Even though Lu Xuan had not specifically studied the way of formations, he could easily break them by only using his eyes trained in pupil skill and a bit of basic theoretical knowledge.

However, with Luo Ming and the other two masters in formations, he was spared much work.

After all, he himself was merely an Ordinary Spirit Plant Master. It was reasonable that he wouldn’t understand formations.

“Eh? Are there spirit plants over there?!”

As soon as they entered the core area of Thunder Island, the five noticed the existenece of numerous Spirit Fields not far away. Numerous Lotus Spirit Plants were growing in these fields.

The roots of the lotus were silver-white, dazzlingly bright. The leaves were very large, wrapped with countless tiny thunders. Threads of lightning seeped out from them, jumping and chasing within the leaves, finally landing in the silver white sandstones beneath.

Shrouded by countless Thunder breaths, the lotus leaves swayed incessantly, making the jumping lightning seem particularly lively.

“Hmm? Looking at these characteristics, they seem similar to the Thunderstorm Lotus I’ve planted.”

While Lu Xuan was pondering, Wang Yanzhong rushed towards the Lotus Spirit Plant with thunder emerging.

“It’s mine now!”

Looking at more than ten silver white lotus seeds formed at the center of the lotus leaf, an ecstatic expression appeared on his face.

“Boom!!!”

Just when he was about to touch the silver white lotus seeds, suddenly, the thunder breath surrounding the lotus leaves seems to have sensed something and instantly went berserk.

Thunders poured down, and the entire spirit plant turned into a silver-white light sphere, exploding violently.

The roots, leaves, and even the lotus seeds, all exploded with astonishing thunder power.

Wang Yanzhong was caught off guard and got directly hit by thunder breaths. In a flash, lightning swept like waves, repeatedly washing over his body.

Despite being a Body Refining Cultivator with a robust physical body, he was riddled with the black under the wash of multiple thunders, his muscles trembling continuously.

This spectacle made the other participants halt in their steps, and their eyes were filled with caution when looking at the Lotus Spirit Plant.

“What the hell is this spirit plant? It exploded before I even touched it!”

Wang Yanzhong took an Ivory Elixir. After dozens of breaths, his condition fully returned to normal. He moved back to the side of the four, annoyance showing through his tone.

Seeing no Demon Beasts or Demon Envoy around, he had originally planned to take advantage of his robust body, rush to the spirit plant in the first place, pick the spiritual medicine, and perhaps get a larger share later on.

Unexpectedly, the Lotus Spirit Plant turned out to be so peculiar, exploding for no apparent reason. Not only were all the lotus seeds inside destroyed, but he also suffered minor injuries, causing an embarrassing situation in front of the four.

“Friend Lu, do you have any knowledge about this strange spirit plant?”

Luo Ming turned his head to look at Lu Xuan who was deep in thought, and asked solemnly.

“If I’m not mistaken, this should be a fourth-grade Thunderstorm Lotus, which is extremely rare in the Cultivation World. Fellow Daoists may not have heard of it unless you’re interested in spirit plants.

It was only a while ago that I learnt about it and acquired one of its Spiritual Seeds from the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce.”

“However, the spirit plant I planted wasn’t there for long, I’ve never seen that spirit plant when it matures and couldn’t recognize it at once.”

“Thus, I was unable to remind Wang Fellow Daoist in time. I deeply apologize.”

Lu Xuan bowed respectfully to Wang Yanzhong as he spoke.

“No harm done, it’s just that I accidentally encountered that strange spirit plant, and its actual harm wasn’t significant.”

Wang Yanzhong darkly wave his hand, it was uncertain whether he believe what Lu Xuan had said.

“Then why did this so-called Thunderstorm Lotus suddenly explode?”

Lei Zheng asked in confusion.

“The Thunderstorm Lotus needs to be nourished with the Thunder spirit breath during its growth. Over time, the accumulated thunder attribute spiritual power in the plant will become more and more, the plant gradually becomes unstable which may lead to a thunderstorm.”

“That Thunderstorm Lotus just now seemed to have matured for a long time, the thunder attribute spiritual power in the plant had reached a terrifying level, extremely sensitive and it explodes at the slightest touch.”

“So, if you want to harvest the Thunderstorm Lotus seeds later, you need to be careful, act as gently as possible, contain your spiritual power, and do not stimulate the thunder spirit breath on the plant.”

“The Thunderstorm Lotus seeds contain pure Thunder Power, which can be used to feed Thunder Attribute Spirit Beast, like the Thunder Jiao in Luo Fellow Daoist’s hands, and can also be used to assist in gradually cultivating the Thunder Attribute Cultivation Method and Divine Skills. They are of great value.”

Lu Xuan reminded.

“It seems that inviting Lu Fellow Daoist to this Ancient Herb Garden this time was an incredibly correct decision. If we were to harvest the seeds directly, we would have lost a lot.”

A smile appeared on Luo Ming’s face, and the others nodded in agreement, recognizing the importance of the Spirit Plant Master in this Medicine Garden.

The five of them each chose a Spirit Field, retracted their spiritual power to avoid stimulating the Thunder spirit breath in the plant.

Then, they extended their hands gently and slowly harvested the lotus seeds.

Lu Xuan also chose a plant and gently plucked a seed from the center of the lotus leaf.

The reason why he informed everyone about the Thunderstorm Lotus, naturally, he had his own considerations.

If he harvested alone, he would certainly become the target of everyone and might even lead to a cooperative attack by four people.

If he concealed the information about the Thunderstorm Lotus, the rare Spirit Plant in front of them, everyone couldn’t possibly not collect the seeds, and they might lose many without reason.

By sharing the information about the Thunderstorm Lotus that he knew, he could avoid such situations, and when distributing the lotus seeds, he could get a few more based on this important information.

The five people were not too far apart from each other, naturally there would be no situation where they kept the Lotus seeds for themselves. Soon, they harvested all the Thunderstorm Lotus from a Spirit Field nearby.

Thanks to Lu Xuan’s reminder, there were no more incidents of thunderstorm caused by the Lotus, and they harvested a large number of Lotus seeds without much risk.

“A total of one hundred and eight lotus seeds. If it weren’t for Lu Fellow Daoist’s suggestions, we wouldn’t have harvested so many. He gets twenty-eight seeds, and the rest of us get twenty each. What do you think?”

“Fair.”

“No problem, Lu Fellow Daoist deserves it.”

Lei Zheng and the others nodded in agreement.

“Thank you, friends.”

Lu Xuan respectfully thanked them and put the 28 Silver White Lotus Seeds into his storage bag without any hesitation.

“Hehe~”

Just as they were about to go across the island for more Thunderstorm Lotus and harvest the seeds, a strange laughter suddenly sounded at the end of their ears.

The laughter was booming like a thunderstorm.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
