Chapter 345: Chapter 343: Mayfly Grass, Nascent Soul
Grass Orb 1
Soon, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator walked out of the inner hall of the Agricultural Department Hall.
“I was wondering who needed such high-grade spiritual seeds. Turns out it’s Friend Lu.”
The Cultivator greeted Lu Xuan with a smile, his body clad in a clean, simple green robe.
“Brother Qu, nice to see you.”
Lu Xuan responded with a bow.
He had crossed paths with the Cultivator in front of him several times, having exchanged their experiences on cultivating spiritual plants with Liu Su.
“I didn’t expect Friend Lu to be so accomplished in the path of spiritual plants, laying out such a huge wager to buy four fourth-ranked spiritual seeds simultaneously.”
“These sword marks are almost all my worth, but there’s really no helping when you love spiritual plants, upon seeing high-grade spirit seeds, I can hardly move and simply want to buy them.”
“As for whether I can successfully cultivate them, that depends on my luck.”
Lu Xuan rattled off some random excuses.
“Taking your words, Friend Lu, I’m sure there’s no issue.”
Having spoken before, the Cultivator understood Lu Xuan’s proficiency in the path of spiritual plants. He raised a hand, and all the spirit seeds floated out in front of Lu Xuan.
“Two fourth-grade Earth Fire Heart Lotus Seeds, totaling five hundred and twenty sword marks.”
“Mysterious Insect Vine Spirit Seed, two hundred and forty sword marks; Mayfly Grass Spirit Seed, two hundred and seventy sword marks.”
“Twenty Flaming Fruit and Ice Luo Fruit spirit seeds each, each at fifteen sword marks, totaling six hundred sword marks.”
“The total for all spirit seeds comes to one thousand six hundred and thirty sword marks.”
“Thankyou, Brother Qu.”
A large amount of small sword-shaped seals flew out of the storage bag. Lu Xuan accepted all the spiritual seeds, bid farewell to the Cultivator with the last name Qu, and left.
A moment later, he returned to his cave residence riding on a spirit crane.
Although it’s been over a decade since he resolved the Spirit Crane’s fertility issue, the spirit crane within the sect still refused to accept his spirit stones as payment. So he had no choice but to feed it a spirit fruit as a token of gratitude.
“With so many new spirit seeds, I’m going to be busy for quite some time.”
Luckily, the area of the cave in the Inner Sect was spacious enough, and there was more than enough room for planting these new spirit seeds.
Lu Xuan found an empty spirit field, used Earth Pulling Technique, and planted forty Flaming Fruit and Ice Luo Fruit spirit seeds in the spirit soil.
Before he left the sect, he selected these two types of spirit fruit for seed condensation, but unfortunately, his return was too late, the fruit on spiritual plants has missed the timing for seed condensation. Thus he had to buy some more spirit seeds again.
Next came the Mysterious Insect Vine, which, when mature, produces the fifth-ranked Space Artifact Gluttonous Insect Bag.
Previously, he cultivated the Mysterious Insect Vine using different ranks of insect eggs. Some of these eggs were left over, which Lu Xuan took out and fed to the Mysterious Insect Vine.
The eggs provided the nutrients for the Mysterious Insect Vine to grow, in turn, the Mysterious Insect Vine secreted special spiritual substances that promoted the growth of demon insects.
Subsequently, he arrived at the Earth Fire Stream and threw two bright red, thumb-sized lotus spirit seeds into the scorching magma.
The last Earth Fire Heart Lotus had produced the fifth-ranked “Pure Yang True Fire Talisman”. The potential reward of the fire-element spirit plant light cluster might be beneficial to the cultivation of the “Sixth-Rank Phoenix Tree”. Moreover, the lotus seeds could purify the various evil spirits and reduce the risk of abnormal change. Hence, he bought these two spirit seeds.
The last one was the fourth-ranked Mayfly Grass Spirit Seed.
The spirit seed seemed like a lump of spiritual energy condensed many times, about the size of an egg. There was a transparent mayfly inside, oscillating between life and death in that small space.
Lu Xuan planned to plant this mayfly grass in the spirit field with Wu Spirit Soil.
He used the Earth Pulling Technique, and a fine crack appeared, enveloping the Mayfly Grass Spirit Seed within it.
Upon gathering his focus, a thought emerged from his mind.
“Mayfly Grass, a fourth grade spirit seed, is extremely delicate. It needs meticulous care during the cultivation process; a slight mishap can lead to its death. Once mature, it can be used to refine elixirs that enhance a cultivator’s divine soul.”
“An elixir to enhance the divine soul… Mayfly Grass is truly rare.”
“It needs meticulous care during the cultivation process and cannot tolerate any mistakes, or it will lead to the death of the spirit plant. This is probably why its seeds are so rare.”
Lu Xuan secretly sighed in his heart. After all, he could monitor the real-time state of the spirit plants at any time, and didn’t have to worry about distraction from his cultivation or adventures, so meticulous care wasn’t difficult for him at all.
“The cultivation of spirit plants in the cave has expanded so much, I need to work harder.”
“Starting today, I will be a normal Spirit Plant Master, cultivating spiritual plants and raising spirit beasts.”
Gazing at the abundant spirit plants across the mountains and fields, Lu Xuan was filled with emotion.
In the following period, he stayed peacefully in his cave dwelling, spending his days with the spirit plants and beasts.
Occasionally, he would venture out to meet some of the friends he had made before.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
“Harvested one Cangyuan Grass of third grade, got one Third-grade magic item, Naling Grass Bead.”
Countless luminescent particles surged into Lu Xuan’s body, and a green Lingzhu appeared in his hand.
The spirit seed was radiating warm life energy, eliciting feelings of comfort and closeness.
As Lu Xuan focused on the green Lingzhu in his hand, he immediately became aware of its detailed information.
“Spirit Absorbing Grass Bead, a third grade treasure, it contains pure and abundant wood spirit energy which can be used to practice related cultivation techniques, refine corresponding magic artefacts, and such.”
“It contains a large amount of wood spirit energy, which can be used to feed the Grass Puppets and can also serve as a supplement to the Qingmu Origin Energy.”
The grass puppet had always been raised with the Grass Spirit Elixir, with a small stream of Qingmu Origin Energy sent from time to time. However, it required the consumption of Lu Xuan’s internal reserves.
Now that he had the Third-grade Spirit Absorbing Grass Bead, he no longer had to worry about nurturing the grass puppet, or about supplementing the Qjngmu Origin Energy.
With a thought, the grass puppet appeared from nearby, diligently patrolling the Spirit Field. It had a huge head atop a small body, and it came to him on two thin legs.
The green Lingzhu was inserted into the grey-black lump on its head.
Threads of wood spirit energy spread out. After a few breaths, the grey-black lump turned green and continued to stretch downwards.
The whole body of the grass puppet, made of nameless grey grass, turned green.
Through his Spiritual Sense, Lu Xuan could see that the green Lingzhu was slowly rotating inside the huge lump, with numerous tiny grass threads seeping into it, continuously absorbing the pure wood spirit energy contained in the bead.
“You’ve worked hard to guard the Spirit Field this time, here’s something good for you to eat, and you get a new skin.”
Gazing at the now-green realm of the grass puppet, Lu Xuan chuckled.
The grass puppet’s spiritual intelligence wasn’t high, it understood that the Lingzhu that had just entered the lump on its head was of massive benefit to it. With a vague sense of gratitude, it wobbled away on its thin legs and continued to patrol the Spirit Field.
This was the eighth Primordial Essence Herb he had harvested during this period. Among the seven previous light clusters, five Foundation Establishment Pills and two Foundation Establishment Pill formula experience packages were produced. The newest plant yielded a new item, the Spirit Absorbing Grass Bead he had just fed the grass puppet.
Of the twenty stalks of third-grade Cangyuan Grass, nine were left.
“I shall hand them over to Senior Sister Guan Wan in the Dan Palace when they all mature.”
“If all of them are successfully cultivated, with several of them being of good quality, it should provide a satisfactory report to the Dan Palace.”
“Maybe I can get another batch of Cangyuan Grass spirit seeds, and spin off Foundation Establishment Pills and formulas from the light clusters.”
Absorbed in the pleasant feeling, Lu Xuan returned to his room and took out the three treasures he had acquired from the Secret Land.
