Chapter 228: Exiting this World

In Lu Xuan's dantian, the Xun Thunder Sword Pill rapidly rotated, and countless subtle sword radiance shot out from the pill.

Seeing the Xun Thunder Sword Pill gradually shrinking while the dark green vines continued their relentless assault, crazily attacking him, Lu Xuan activated his spiritual power. Over twenty strands of Green Wood Source Qi emerged from his dantian, entwining around more than twenty mutated ghost vines closest to him.

A piercing scream echoed as these ghost vines, controlled by the Green Wood Source Qi, turned against their comrades, madly attacking them.

Lu Xuan's pressure immediately lightened, and without hesitating to conserve the Green Wood Source Qi, more than ten strands of faint green spiritual power shot out, entwining the attacking mutated ghost vines.

Former allies in battle suddenly turned their attacks towards Lu Xuan. The ghost vines, with simple intelligence, were momentarily confused. Seizing the opportunity, Lu Xuan swiftly eliminated a considerable number of them in just a few breaths.

The effect was evident, but the consumption of Green Wood Source Qi was rapid. In this short period, nearly half of it had been depleted.

"Wu, wu..."

Suddenly, a barely audible whimper reached Lu Xuan's ears, accompanied by intense pain.

Soon, as if receiving a command, all the dark green vines retracted underground. The ghost vines, like mountain ghosts, regrouped in front of their enormous companion, emitting mournful cries towards Lu Xuan.

Seeing this, Lu Xuan did not pursue further. The black sword radiance revolved slowly around his body, and the atmosphere became calm again, unlike the previous fierceness.

In just a short moment, although several hundred mutated ghost vines suffered significant casualties, Lu Xuan's consumption was not insignificant. Both the Xun Thunder Sword Pill and the Green Wood Source Qi in his dantian experienced considerable depletion.

Standing silently for a while, the gigantic mutated ghost vine showed no movement. The bud at its peak contracted and expanded more violently, as if something was about to emerge.

A strand of faint green spiritual energy slowly approached the gigantic mutated ghost vine.

Apparently sensing that the Green Wood Source Qi was beneficial and harmless, or perhaps powerless to react to Lu Xuan's movements, the smooth flow of faint green spiritual power entered the body of the gigantic mutated ghost vine.

Lu Xuan concentrated his mind, and a thought emerged from his mind. Fragmented images flashed like a revolving lantern.

【Mutated Ghost Vine, a fourth-grade mystical mutated spirit plant.】

"So, this is the origin."

After digesting the fragments in his mind, Lu Xuan took a deep breath.

Perhaps due to the successive generations' unique reproductive methods of these mutated ghost vines and the instincts engraved deep in their blood, Lu Xuan not only understood their relevant information but also saw fragments of images, tracing back to ancient times.

"In simple terms, the mutated ghost vines in the medicinal garden are working hard to eliminate other spirit plants competing for spiritual power to ensure their survival.

Then, when the elders of the sect discovered this blessed land, these mutated ghost vines completely became leeks, wanting to escape from this destiny, they quietly reproduced and evolved."

Lu Xuan clarified the content of the images.

"A fourth-grade mutated ghost vine, if it can advance further, perhaps there is a slight possibility."

"Of course, the likelihood is extremely slim. Even if it becomes a fifth-grade mutated plant, it still cannot break free from the confinement of the blessed land. For the Nascent Soul Realm expert overseeing the blessed land, it might not be more valuable than an ordinary fifth-grade demonic beast."

Lu Xuan murmured to himself.

He admired the actions of these mutated ghost vines, but he didn't harbor any optimistic thoughts. If crossing over were as easy as just putting in effort, what would be the point of hierarchy?

Upon hearing Lu Xuan's words, the gigantic mutated ghost vine's thick vines trembled continuously, resembling a drowning person struggling for a long time, losing hope for life, and relaxing weakly, continuously descending.

There were faint signs of cracking at the top bud.

Lu Xuan sighed lightly, and a strand of faint green spiritual power surged from his fingertip. The spiritual power was vibrant with life, seemingly able to nurture all living things, including hope.

His fingertip gently touched the thick vines of the mutated ghost vine. The green light flashed, entering the mournful green flower bud. From inside, a very pleasant and subtle sound could be heard.

"Believe in my words. Entrust the mutated ghost vine sapling in the bud to me, and I will lead it out of this world."

Lu Xuan's lips curved into a gentle smile as he spoke softly.
