He carefully gouged out the three pairs of blood-red pupils from the Six-eyed Red Iron Scorpion.
Sensing the proximity of superior quality demon beast eyeballs, dozens of eyes on the dry, old bark of the Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree underwent a change. They tried hard to open and look at the giant scorpion pupils, ready to make a move.
The previously deposited demon beast eyeballs had been nearly completely absorbed, with only small, dried eyeballs remaining on the bark. As the Yin Qi passed over them, they swung back and forth, resembling lanterns that had been abandoned for years wavering in grey ashes.
Under the stimulus of the living eyeballs from the Fourth Grade Six-eyed Red Iron Scorpion, the dried demon beast eyeballs fell one after another, shattering upon the ground as nearly transparent tentacles retracted like lightning back into the bizarre eyes.
Lu Xuan placed one of the large scorpion pupils flat on his index finger and flicked it like a marble with his thumb. The pupil flew towards the dry, old bark. Immediately, dozens of tiny transparent tentacles darted out, forcefully pulling the giant scorpion pupil towards the pupil hole on the bark. After a few bouts of tug-of-war, they finally reached a delicate balance. Several tentacles nearby pierced the eyeball from various directions, absorbing the nutrients within the Fourth Grade demon beast eyeball with vigor.
Lu Xuan flicked the six giant scorpion pupils at various parts of the Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree trunk, causing nearby pupils to scramble.
He then came to the Thorn Bone, where white, bone-like thorns clung tightly to the huge corpse of the Barbarian Armored Bull. Countless thin bone spikes penetrated deeply into the corpse, seemingly integrating with it.
“After being absorbed by the Thorn Bone for such a long time, the third-ranked Barbarian Armored Bull skeleton is showing signs of becoming brittle,” Lu Xuan pointed out, looking at the giant skeleton that seemed to be intact on the surface but hollowed out on the inside.
“The Fourth Grade Six-eyed Red Iron Scorpion skeleton, although smaller than the Barbarian Armored Bull, is of a higher rank and is fully capable of maturing the Thorn Bone.”
Although the value of the Six-eyed Red Iron Scorpion’s skeleton was lower than its venom, poison needle, and three pairs of unusual pupils, it was a Fourth Grade demon beast after all. It should pose no problem in nurturing the latter half-stage growth of the Thorn Bone.
Lu Xuan carved out the demon beast meat from the scorpion’s corpse and buried it under the third-grade Poison Shuttle Tree. The meat of the demon beast contained a good amount of toxins, which was suitable for its cultivation and promoting its growth.
“The various Underworld Spiritual Plants in the yard are growing well. The quantity of Yin Soul Resentment in the Resentful Soul Bell is dwindling, but with the nurturing of the Yin Soul Pearl, the level of Yin Qi can significantly increase in a short period. Nurtured, one Yin Soul Resentment is as good as the previous three and should be just enough,”
There’s no need to worry about the subsequent growth of the Thorn Bone, and the Poison Shuttle Tree can grow normally under these conditions. As for the Hundred Pupil Bizarre Tree, a task of collecting demon beast pupils can be posted once again in the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall next time we visit.” “As for the Holy Baby Fruit, it can currently only maintain its basic growth.” Lu Xuan scanned various Spirit Plants in the courtyard, silently thinking to himself.
Without lingering, he activated the Thousand Illusion Cloud Smoke Array, verified its operation, and flew towards the Sect.
Within the Sky Sword Sect.
Lu Xuan passed through one array after another with his Identity Plaque, his heart filled with tranquility.
“It’s still better to stay in the Sect, it’s good to have the support of a big tree, there’s no need to worry about any dirty tricks.”
“All you have to do is farm peacefully.”
Caught in his sentiment, the peaks below were now right before his eyes. Lu Xuan couldn’t help but let out a long cry, transforming into a ray of floating light and arriving at the foot of the mountain in a few breaths.
” Little ones, I’m back.”
Threads of silver occasionally appeared and disappeared. Lu Xuan activated the Flowing Light Formation and entered the mountain.
A pale green figure quickly flew over, landing on Lu Xuan’s head.
The pale green broad wings occasionally beat Lu Xuan’s shoulders, expressing strong joy. 6
Lu Xuan felt the familiar soft touch atop his head and couldn’t resist pinching it a few times.
The Wind Falcon chirped twice, then descended from his head.
On its slender neck, a thick, fiery-red necklace was fastened tightly. Sensing Lu Xuan’s gaze, the necklace squirmed. The little Fire Separation Flood Dragon poked its slightly protruding head out, its faintly red, crystal-clear eyes gazing at Lu Xuan in a daze.
“You’ve grown so big in such a short time.”
Noticing that the Young Drake had grown from 1.5 feet at birth to about 2 feet, Lu Xuan commented in amazement as he began to take out the fire-elemental Demon Beast Meat that the Flood Dragon adored from his storage bag.
“You can have some, too.”
Seeing the eager look of the Wind Sparrow Fledgling beside him, he hastily took out a few pieces of wind-elemental Demon Beast Meat.
Not far away, in the dense forest, the leaves rustled. A Cloud Leopard crouched on a giant tree on the edge of the clearing, its head rose slightly, its pair of green eyes casting a casual glance at Lu Xuan.
Only the two tufts of grey-white hair curled upon its head, and its constantly swishing short tail, betrayed the restlessness deep within its heart.
Lu Xuan had long understood the uppity nature of the Cloud Leopard. Amid its growls laced with a hint of gruffness, he approached the tree.
Snatching up two pieces of Demon beast meat, he threw them forcefully towards the Cloud Leopard. Its plush feet, thick as clouds, abruptly swung, capturing the Demon Beast Meat with precision.
“Haha!”
Lu Xuan laughed heartily, feeling joyful at the sight of the three creatures, and within a few leaps returned to his courtyard.
After a brief rest, he began to inspect the Spirit Field, checking on the growth of the various Spirit Plants.
“Hmm, one of the Sword Grass is fully matured!”
When passing the two Sword Grass plants gifted by Sishen Hall Master Shen Ye, Lu Xuan, as was his habit, focused his divine consciousness on the straight, sword-like plant, surprising to find that the progress bar for one of the Sword Grass had been entirely filled.
These two Sword Grass plants were planted shortly after the Flowing Light Wood and the Yin Locust Tree. Thus, their maturity duration was not too far apart.
Wrapping his palm with Spiritual Power, Lu Xuan gripped tightly the blade-like Sword Grass, slowly extracting it from the soil.
Little Sword Qi danced all around on the gray-black Sword Grass, sizzling softly as they collided with Lu Xuan’s palm.
The root of the Sword Grass had a peculiar shape, eerily resembling a sword hilt. Holding it evoked a sense of natural harmony.
Under the concentration of his divine consciousness, a thought flitted across Lu Xuan’s mind.
[Sword Grass, a second-level Spirit Plant, is shaped like a sword blade and nurtured over time by Sword Qi. It is an innate Sword Implement and can be used directly or to refine Flying Swords.]
“Superior quality Sword Grass, the spiritual energy environment in the Sect is much better than that in market.”
Lu Xuan remembered that the Sword Grass he cultivated at Linyang Market was of’ Good Quality’. Now, under the nourishment of the Grand – mastery Gold Sword Technique in an environment filled with purer and richer spiritual energy, this Sword Grass had improved in quality.
Thinking to himself, he looked down at the ground.
In the pit left by the Sword Grass, a white light cluster flickered, waiting to be collected.
Upon lightly touching the surface of the Light Cluster, countless light particles condensed into a beam of light, resembling a sword, that quickly entered Lu Xuan’s body.
Immediately afterward, a thought surfaced in his mind.
[Harvest one two-grade Sword Grass, obtain third-ranked Sword Embryo.] A small golden sword appeared in front of him, circling around Lu Xuan agilely like a fish.
