Lu Xuan returned to his peak, found an empty Spirit Field, and using the Earth Pulling Technique, planted three Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seeds into the Spirit Soil.
Then, spiritual power surged, and strands of Spirit Rain fell, seeping into the Spirit Soil, nourishing the Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seeds.
After sparking life in the gourd spirit seeds, he took out several second-hand flying swords from his storage bag and placed them around the spirit seeds, allowing them to absorb the residual Sword Intent.
In Sword Gate Town, if there was anything in abundance, it was Loose Cultivators, wandering about. You could always stumble upon a large number of second-hand flying swords for a bargain. Lu Xuan had prepared quite a few in his storage bag.
After planting the Sword Nurturing Gourds, he returned to his house, took out the two Jade Slips that were engraved with the refining methods for Flaming Fruit and Ice Luo Fruit Spirit Seeds and held them to his forehead.
As his Spiritual Sense entered the Jade Slips, a flood of information poured instantly into his mind.
The refining methods for the two spirit seeds, the timing, precautions, storage methods, and more.
“Having obtained the refining methods for both Flaming Fruit and Ice Luo
Fruit Spirit Seeds, I can now freely produce Spirit Fruits.”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but sigh.
The next day, he woke up early, walked in the Spirit Field, and awarded a wisp of Qmgmu Origin Energy to the tirelessly working Grass Puppet, making its body instantly lush with vegetation.
After nurturing all the Spirit Plants, he planned to take a trip to the Thousand Dragon Lake, visit some old friends, and by the way, perform a check-up on the hundreds, or maybe even thousands, of Strange Serpents in the lake.
He had previously extracted a large amount of Water Dragon Essence Blood, which he thought would last him for many years.
But with the appearance of the blood-sucking Blood Scourge Flower, his stock of several hundred bottles of Water Dragon Essence Blood seemed to be insufficient.
In addition to his cultivation of “Transforming Dragon in the Void” and the nurturing of the Flood Dragon Vine, he decided to go and obtain another wave of Water Dragon Essence Blood, just in case.
The banks of Thousand Dragon Lake.
Lu Xuan sat on the back of the Spirit Crane, looking at the familiar cottages below, a sense of nostalgia blossoming in his heart.
Besides his own cave residence, the place he spent the most time in the sect was here.
“I wonder how those juvenile Jiao Dragons I used to feed are now…”
As he was in a daze, the Tall Spirit Crane gracefully landed. The disciples came out of the stone house, feeling the movement outside, and looked towards Lu Xuan.
“Lu… Uncle Lu.”
The one leading the group was Huang Yuan, who still managed these waters.
Upon seeing Lu Xuan, his first instinct was to greet him as a junior brother, but he immediately remembered the time that had passed and quickly corrected his address.
Lu Xuan had once fed Water Dragons under his supervision for quite some time. The junior he used to follow had now become an Ancestor at Foundation Establishment stage, Huang Yuan couldn’t help but feel a bit awkward. However, the gap in their cultivation levels was evident, he couldn’t afford to be disrespectful.
“Huang.”
Lu Xuan just nodded slightly.
“I was not aware of Uncle Lu’s visit, I beg your pardon for the lack of greeting.” Huang Yuan quickly adjusted his mindset and spoke earnestly.
“No matter, I was here for so long before, besides, you and some other familiar faces are here. There’s no need to act like strangers.”
Lu Xuan waved his hand.
Huang Yuan welcomed Lu Xuan into the stone house and offered him Spiritual Fruit and Spiritual Tea. After a bit of small talk, Lu Xuan noticed a cultivator carrying a giant wooden bucket going out to feed the Jiaolong Python, and said to Huang Yuan,
“Nephew Huang, could you take me to the wooden platform where I used to raise the Juvenile Jiao Dragons? It’s been a long time, I miss them.”
“Sure, I will arrange it now.”
When his Master of the Foundation Establishment Stage made a request, Huang Yuan naturally couldn’t refuse. After basic preparations and collecting the freshest monster meat, he led Lu Xuan to the wooden platform where he used to feed the Juvenile Jiao Dragons.
After Uncle Master left, many breakthroughs occurred among those flood dragons. Considering they had been well-trained by Uncle Master, this water area became a much coveted spot for many fellow disciples.”
However, with the passage of time, for reasons unknown, the flood dragons didn’ t gather for meals as orderly as before, gradually behaving just like other flood dragons in other water areas.”
Along the way, Huang Yuan detailed his previous experience of feeding flood dragons to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan nodded to signify his understanding.
When he had previously fed them, he provided a combination of both kindness and intimidation, and he set a specific diet for each flood dragon, therefore managing to control them well.
Latterly, even if others fed Jiaolong Python with the same species and quantity of demon beast meat, they wouldn’t be able to achieve such precise feeding, nor fully satisfy them, hence gradually losing control over them.
As soon as he stepped onto the feeding platform, he saw dozens of Jiaolong Pythons in the water fighting over the tossed pieces of demon beast meat.
The waves churned and roars echoed, with Jiaolong Pythons occasionally getting injured from the fierce competition, causing a gruesome sight of flesh and blood.
“Your behavior disappoints me,” Lu Xuan said softly, his faint spiritual pressure radiating outwards and taming all the first and second grade Jiaolong Pythons.
The moment they heard Lu Xuan’s voice, about half of the Jiaolong Pythons raised their heads. Seeing his familiar figure, they instinctively returned to their initial orderly line.
The ones that didn’t move were all Jiaolong Pythons that had been brought in after Lu Xuan left.
Observing this, Lu Xuan’s lips curled up, and fresh demon beast meat flew out of the barrel, sorting itself out and accurately landing in the feeding zone of each flood dragon.
You remember me, Lu Someone, and I am deeply moved. However, your blood will still need to be extracted.”
Lu Xuan thought privately.
“This time I’ve come, not only to see these juvenile flood dragons and acquaintances like Huang Yuan, but mainly to attend to the health issues of the hundreds, if not thousands, of flood dragons in the Thousand Dragon Lake, so 111 take some time to give them a full examination.”
He turned his head and said to Huang Yuan and his group.
It s the good fortune of these first and second grade flood dragons to be cared for by Uncle Lu.”
Huang Yuan expressed his gratitude.
Lu Xuan had previously conducted a full-body check-up for all the Jiaolong Pythons in the periphery of Thousand Dragon Lake, even detecting Hidden Scaled Fish and other troublesome creatures, which prevented the outer sect disciples who raised the flood dragons from suffering heavy losses.
They had always felt grateful, and although they had hoped that Lu Xuan would examine them again after such a long time, they knew they didn’t have the qualifications to invite a Foundation Establishment Uncle Master, so they kept it to themselves and were more diligent in their care.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xuan took the initiative to propose a comprehensive check- up for all the flood dragons.
Despite his lofty status as an Inner Sect disciple, he was willing to set his status aside and help out the group of Dragon Cultivators who had average cultivation levels and no background despite his busy schedule.
He really…
Huang Yuan and the others were inexplicably touched, and their eyes filled with admiration when they looked at Lu Xuan.
“Uncle Lu, please wait a moment. I’ll contact the fellow disciples in the other
water areas and get them ready.”
“Alright.” Lu Xuan replied casually with his hands behind his back and an easygoing expression.
Looking out at the vast expanse of the lake in front of him, he felt a sudden surge of boldness.
“Revelling in the spring breeze, the red thread moves swiftly, extracting the blood of a thousand flood dragons in a day.”
“My red threaded needle, has grown quite thirsty.”
A red thread began to whirl around him rapidly.
