Chapter 527: Mind-Confusing Viper Bug

"Inside the Spirit Beast’s Sea of Consciousness?”

True Man Cang Wu looked troubled.

The Sea of Consciousness proves to be the most intricate aspect of a Spirit Beast. Any act of carelessness could drive the Spirit Beast into madness, or even result in immediate death.

"Could it be the intrusion of the Demon Envoy? Can Exorcism Purification Treasures or Charms expel the foreign objects from the Spirit Beast’s Sea of Consciousness?”

He directed his question to the cold and stern Chen Luo.

"We could give it a try.”

Chen Luo simply replied, pulling out a Jade Talisman that pulsated with pure light from his storage bag and approached one of the Spirit Beasts.

Under the control of Spiritual Power, the pure light on the Jade Talisman swirled, flowing into the abnormal Spirit Beast’s body like a stream.

After a moment, the pure light on the Jade Talisman dimmed significantly, with no changes evident in the Spirit Beast. It still appeared fierce and brutal, ready to surge into a rage and attack.

"I’ll give it a shot.”

True Man Cang Wu stepped forward, and a Square Jade Seal appeared before him.

A vigorous dragon roar echoed from the Jade Seal. Following that, the phantom of a Flood Dragon shot out, circling and trapping one of the abnormal Spirit Beasts.

Immense suction force exuded from the Flood Dragon’s phantom, carrying a pure and natural aura, casting a peaceful tranquility over Lu Xuan and the others who were standing from afar.

After a while, the Flood Dragon’s phantom spontaneously relinquished its grip and retracted back into the Square Jade Seal.

"It’s likely not due to the Demon Envoy.”

True Man Cang Wu stated placidly.

"This Jade Seal of mine is a Fifth Rank Treasure, possessing potent exorcism effects. If it’s unable to detect any trace of Evil Spite Qi, then it’s probable that the other entities are lurking within the Spirit Beast’s Sea of Consciousness.”

"Disciple Lu, do you have any solutions?”

He turned to look at Lu Xuan, who had remained silent all the while.

"Both of you Elders greatly surpass me in knowledge of Spirit Beasts; I can merely claim to have a rudimentary understanding. However, we all have our unique strengths regarding Spirit Beasts. I personally enjoy seeking out and studying unusual and peculiar records on Spirit Beasts in my free time. Maybe I could give it a try.”

Lu Xuan stated, wearing a smile.

Under everyone’s watchful gazes, he unconcernedly approached a Four-winged Thunder Tiger Spirit Beast.

This Four-winged Thunder Tiger was colossal in size, boasting Fourth Grade strength, evidently different from the one he had tamed previously.

"Disciple Lu, have you found anything?”

True Man Cang Wu asked as usual, not expecting much.

Even the highly hoped-for Chen Luo could only make vague guesses. The possibility that Lu Xuan, who had relatively weaker abilities and less experience with Spirit Beasts, found something new was even slimmer.

"I was lucky enough to find some things.”

Lu Xuan replied with a smile.

"Oh? Really? Disciple Lu, please share your findings.”

True Man Cang Wu was surprised, as Lu Xuan’s response was unexpected.

His surprise was mirrored by Zhong Hao and Chen Luo standing beside him.

"I read about something similar in an ancient book I happened upon by chance. It said that in another realm, there is a unique bug called the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug, that likes to lurk in the minds of Demon Beasts, feeding on invisible Spiritual Senses.”

"After being invaded by the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug, the Demon Beast’s mind gradually gets lost, and it easily falls into a state of savage madness. However, the Beast itself cannot detect any abnormality, even if its Divine Soul completely fell, it would not suspect that something was hiding inside its Spiritual Sense.”

Lu Xuan said seriously.

"Mind-Confusing Viper Bug? I’ve never heard of it. The world is indeed full of wonders.”

True Man Cang Wu’s face revealed a puzzled expression.

"I just like to collect this kind of strange knowledge. When I heard Brother Chen Luo mention something infiltrating the Spirit Beast’s Spiritual Sense, I immediately thought of the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug.”

"In the area Elder Uncle Cang Wu excels in, I still have a lot to learn.”

Lu Xuan said modestly.

"Does Disciple Lu have a solution?”

True man Cang Wu asked urgently.

"It is extremely fortunate that I know as much as I do. As for how to deal with the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug, it still requires Elder Uncle Cang Wu and the other brothers to investigate and figure it out.”

"However, I think we can start from two aspects.”

"One is to use treasures related to Spiritual Sense to lure the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug out. As long as it appears harmless but stronger than the Spiritual Sense of the Spirit Beast, it would be extremely tempting for the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug.”

"Secondly, we can consider finding some Divine Soul Type Treasures. They may be able to restrain the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug and have miraculous effects.”

Lu Xuan suggested.
