The double-headed armadillo, staring at the fallen comrade encircled by Lu Xuan, had a growing intensity of resentment in its eyes, almost palpable.

Its greyish-yellow light grew stronger and stronger, crackling, the scale armor on its body opened simultaneously, and the rope binding it snapped in an instant.

All this seemed to take Lu Xuan by surprise. Before he could react, the injured double-headed armadillo seized this fleeting opportunity and quickly burrowed into Stone Mountain.

Before leaving, it left Lu Xuan with a look of bitter hatred.

“Being the villain isn’t easy.”

Lu Xuan sighed. He activated “The Great Five Elements,” and a thin layer of grayish-yellow spiritual power appeared on his body as he too burrowed into Stone Mountain.

The reason he left the injured double-headed armadillo behind wasn’t to raise it outside the blessed land. Actually, he just wanted to track it, find the gathering place of the double-headed armadillo demon beasts, and thus find the rare spirit soil they rely on for survival.

So, after Qian Dinghong and his companion left, he returned to the Stone Mountain and released the injured double-headed armadillo, deliberately provoking it with words and the remains of its companion, giving it an opportunity to escape.

Lu Xuan’s cultivation of “The Great Five Elements” includes the Five Elements Escape Method, and he is also adept at earth escape.

His spiritual sense was firmly locked on the double-headed armadillo that was swiftly tunneling through the rock. From the thin, dark gold Hidden Spirit Cloak, countless nearly transparent threads emerged, completely isolating and obscuring his breath and spiritual power.

Less than half a moment later, Lu Xuan followed the injured double-headed armadillo to a hollow cave.

The entire cave was dark as only a few rays of light fell down, it was blocked in every direction: up, down, left, and right.

Cloaked with the Hidden Spirit Cloak and hiding in the corner, Lu Xuan turned himself invisible and silently observed everything in the cave.

After returning to the cave, the injured double-headed armadillo let out a sad, low growl. Then, one by one, double-headed armadillo demon beasts crawled out from the cracks in the cave, surrounding the injured one.

No one knew what the injured double-headed armadillo said, but over ten double-headed armadillo demon beasts were excited, their roars filled with endless resentment.

Next, the injured double-headed armadillo took the lead, and more than ten armadillo demon beasts, filled with hatred, followed him closely using earth escape.

“Ah, blinded by hatred.”

Lu Xuan silently sighed and flew out from the corner.

“Considering the elapsed time, the round trip of the double-headed armadillo demon beast exceeds half a moment, plus locating ‘me’ as their target, time is just enough.”

He analyzed as he quickly reached the depths of the cave.

“To prevent any uncertainties, it’s better to finish this quickly.

Lu Xuan activated the Floating Light Body Method with all his might, turning into a silent shadow and drilling into the cave wall.

“Found it.”

In the dim light, his eyes suddenly brightened, shining brightly.

In the corner, a layer of deep yellow soil was spread out, the spiritual energy of the soil overflowed, and it could be sensed from far away.

“Is this… Wu Spirit Soil?”

In his spare time, Lu Xuan had browsed through many scriptures about spirit plants in the Sect’s Scripture Pavilion, and after a brief glance, he was able to identify the origins of this deep yellow soil.

Wu Spirit Soil contains abundant earth spiritual power, suitable for most spirit plants. It can accelerate their growth and often accompanies the generation of earth spirit minerals.

At the same time, Wu Spirit Soil is also a main refining material for many earth-element magic artifacts.

just as Lu Xuan was about to put the Wu soil into his bag, suddenly an old double-headed armadillo attacked from the shadows.

Lu Xuan, who had been on guard since he entered, swung his Purple Lightning Sword, producing a great amount of thunder and lightning, killing the aged armadillo demon beast instantaneously.

After easily finishing off the old armadillo demon beast, Lu Xuan quickly collected the Wu Spirit Soil, scraping off layers until he reached the gray-black soil underneath.

Before leaving, he conveniently put the remains of the double-headed armadillo into his storage bag.

Like this, he quickly weaved through the crevices of the rocky cave. Along the way, he met an aged double-headed armadillo. After dealing with it, he swiftly gathered the Wu Spirit Soil inside.

“Did I stumble upon the pantry of the double-headed armadillos?” Lu Xuan looked at the cave, filled with Spirit Minerals, and exclaimed in surprise.

There were many different types of Spirit Minerals with different shapes and sizes, mostly second-grade, but quite a few third-grade ones as well.

According to Qian Dinghong, double-headed armadillos usually eat various kinds of ores. The pile of Spirit Minerals here must have been collected by the armadillo group over a long period.

Naturally, he put these Spirit Minerals into his storage bag and continued to harvest the Wu Spirit Soil inside the cave.

“Two baby armadillos are still here.”

In the deepest part of the cave, Lu Xuan found two baby double-headed armadillos with light gray scales.

The small beasts were less than a foot long, their scales had not fully formed yet, and they roared fiercely at Lu Xuan, displaying their young and naive appearance.

“Where are your parents? Where have they gone?”

“How could they leave you alone at home? What if they met a bad guy?

Lu Xuan crushes a piece of second-grade ore, feeds each of the two baby armadillos a small piece.

His mind focused on the fragile grey bodies of the baby double-headed armadillos, a thought flashing through his mind.

[Double-headed Armadillo, third-grade demonic beast, juvenile stage.] [They have a natural ability to use Earth escape, can freely move through rocks and soil, feed on fine iron ore, extremely sensitive to the scent of various ores, and can easily find Spirit Minerals.]

[During their growth, they gradually master various Earth-based formula methods. Mature double-headed armadillos have extremely strong scale armor, which is a rare material for refining defensive magic artifacts.]

[I don’t eat dirt, who eats dirt.]

“Third-rank demonic beasts, they were just born not long ago, barely having the strength of a first-grade demonic beast.”

“You’re too weak. I’m a kind-hearted person, and I can’t bear to leave you.” “Let’s do this, follow me for now. After finding your parents, I’ll let you go back to them.”

Lu Xuan squatted down, speaking gently to the two baby double-headed armadillos.

Then, before the two baby double-headed armadillos could react, he put them directly into the Life Bag.

The Life Bag can greatly slow down the leakage of life from the Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts. Even if the double-headed armadillo babies, which are only of first grade, are stored there for a long time, they won’t be greatly affected. After confirming that the double-headed armadillo’s nest was thoroughly emptied, Lu Xuan estimated that the dozen or so double-headed armadillos out for vengeance will return soon.Yôur f𝒂vorite stories on 𝒏/o/(v)𝒆/lb𝒊n(.)c𝒐m

He cupped his fist in a salute in the direction of the departing armadillos.

“I will raise your kids.”

immediately afterwards, a thin layer of gray-yellow Spiritual Energy Shield appeared on his body. He chose a direction opposite to the armadillo’s departure and burrowed directly into the ground.

Lu Xuan swam quickly through the rock as if he were a fish, darkness before his eyes, yet he felt a sense of freedom, unimpeded by the hard rock.

“Phew…”

He emerged from the soil, looking into the distance. The Stone Mountain was more than ten miles away from him now.

“I wonder how the double-headed armadillo demons will react when they return to their nest.”

“Being robbed this time should also serve as a lesson for them, I hope they will remember it well.”

As for whether the wrath of the double-headed armadillo demons will affect passing sect members, Lu Xuan could only hope they find their own luck.
