Chapter 416: Chapter 414: Searching for Sword in Sword Pool_1
Lu Xuan’s speech was full of disdain, but his spiritual sense explored inside the storage bag, searching for poisonous substances that could satisfy the young worm’s cravings.
He prided himself on being able to control the worm’s bodily condition at all times, so he was confident that even if it was poisoned to the brink of death, he could save it.
Soon, he took out a piece of Demon Beast Meat from the bag. The meat was stored in an exquisite jade box, covered with runic symbols on all sides to retain its richness and prevent the loss of spiritual power.
Lu Xuan remembered that this meat came from a third-ranked Ice Toad. The Ice Toad lived in extremely cold places and could absorb the extremely Yin and extreme cold aura. Its body was filled with a potent virus.
“Try this?”
He threw a fist-sized piece of Ice Toad meat to the young Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect.
Feeling the icy poison within the meat, the young worm’s eyes lit up and it swallowed the meat in a few gulps.
The moment it swallowed the meat, a thin layer of frost quickly appeared on the worm’s body. The frost accumulated rapidly. After a few breaths, the worm was frozen solid, easily mistaken for an ice cube.
A faint black aura flowed inside the ice cube, which held the cold aura.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan quickly concentrated his attention on the worm.
A thought flickered through his mind.
[Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect, a fourth-ranked poisonous insect, possesses the rare Disaster Poison Body…]
[After swallowing third-rank Ice Toad meat, the body suffers from severe chill poison. If not resolved in time, its spiritual power, flesh body, and even the divine soul will be frozen quickly, gradually leading to death.]
[To drive out this cold poison, we need the Supreme Yang Firmly Outlandish Fire, and a perfectly proficient control over the fire to gently roast the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect all over the body.]
“Fortunately, I can easily solve it myself. Otherwise, I would have to seek help from Brother Ge and others.”
Lu Xuan understood the exact state of the young worm, and was profoundly grateful.
He had been contemplating the Five-Rank “Pure Yang Real Fire Talisman” for several years. Although he had not mastered the Divine Skills of Pure Yang True Fire, he had no problem in issuing a wisp of Supreme Yang Firm Firm Pure Yang Flames.
As for fire control, he had opened a lot of “Playing with Flame Jue” experience packages from the Flame Fruit Light Group that could achieve precise control.
There’s no chance he would burn this little poisonous worm to a crisp.
Lu Xuan mobilized his internal spiritual power, visualized the majestic form of Barefoot Golden Crow, and a wisp of pale platinum flame gushed from his fingertips.
Under Lu Xuan’s spiritual control, the form of the flame kept changing, swiftly forming a thin net of fire, gently enveloping the worm, now an ice cube.
The ice cube melted rapidly, like snow under the blazing sun, soon revealing the worm, but it didn’t look so good. Its whole body had turned into a frosty black color, with tiny black vapors flowing on its surface emitting an intense cold aura.
Lu Xuan kept his composure, leisurely roasting the worm.
After a few moments, strands of black mist seeped out from the worm’s body, compressed into a drop of black cold liquid by the pale platinum fire net controlled by Lu Xuan.
The juvenile worm opened its eyes and couldn’t help but shudder.
It quickly regained vitality, revolving around Lu Xuan, sending him grateful thoughts.
“Did you like it?”
Lu Xuan asked with a soft laugh.
The young worm eagerly nodded.
“Any regrets?”
It shook its head without hesitation.
“I’ll spoil you then.”
Lu Xuan waved his hand, and the satisfied young worm quickly left, hiding in a corner to digest the Ice Toad meat’s poison.
After feeding the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect with the new poison, Lu Xuan’s following days were as calm as water, quietly waiting for the last Spirit Gathering Pine to fully mature.
Unexpectedly, he ended up waiting for someone he hadn’t seen for a long time.
On the mountainside, the Two-headed Juvenile who was stealthily piling up Wu Spirit Soil into his cave seemed to sense a horrific aura. Before Lu Xuan knew it, it disappeared from his sight, hiding deep within the mountain.
“Junior Brother Lu, I have come to bother you.”
A middle-aged cultivator with a gentle demeanor and carrying a deep black sword case was slowly climbing the mountain.
“So, it’s Brother Shen. I haven’t seen you in a while, how have you been lately?”
The visitor was Shen Ye, who had brought Lu Xuan into the Sword Hall. They had interacted many times and were quite familiar with each other.
“Everything else is fine, but I’ve been constantly thinking about those third-grade Wind Thunder Sword Grass of yours.”
Shen Ye jokingly said.
Lu Xuan guided him into the garden, serving Ice-fire Dual Spirit Fruits and Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice.
“Junior Brother Lu, how many Wind Thunder Sword Grass have you improved recently?”
Shen Ye took a sip of the Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice, savoring the variety of spirit fruit flavors in his mouth for a moment before slowly asking.
“A few mutated ones have been bred, which are being cultivated in the cave mansion.”
Lu Xuan replied.
“Oh? Junior Brother Lu is really amazing, who can improve a third-grade Wind Thunder Sword Grass at any time. I wonder if you have figured out the method of condensation of Wind Thunder Sword Grass?”
On hearing this, Shen Ye straightened up a lot, asking with eager eyes.
“I am currently in the testing stage, not very sure.”
Lu Xuan pondered for a moment, and then spoke in a low voice.
Although he has some clues about the method of condensing Wind-Thunder Swordgrass, it still needs to be tested for its correctness. Therefore, he answered Brother Shen conservatively and didn’t speak conclusively.
“Ha ha ha, I believe with your talent in nurturing spirit plants, there definitely will not be any problems.”
Shen Ye laughed heartily.
Lu Xuan has demonstrated frightening talent in cultivating Sword Grass, a type of spirit plant, boosting his faith in Lu Xuan almost borders on blind trust.
“Brother has too much hope for me.”
Lu Xuan laughed helplessly.
“If I say you can do it, you can do it. My judgement will not be wrong.”
Shen Ye said with a smile, then changed the subject.
“I came here this time because I have something that I would like to invite you, Junior Brother.”
“Oh? Brother Shen, please tell me.”
“You have been in the Sword Hall for quite some time, and you must have a deep understanding of it.”
“There is a Sword Pool in the Sword Hall. Have you heard of it, Junior Brother Lu?”
Lu Xuan nodded:
“I know a little. I hear that it contains many high-grade sword implements, sword pills, and weapons of the fifth rank.”
“Yes.”
“The Sword Pool can temper sword implements and Sword Pills. It contains many weapons left by the predecessors of the Sect and the flying swords replaced by Sword Dao experts, as well as high-grade flying swords made by sword casting masters in the Sword Hall, and so on.”
“Every once in a while, the Sword Hall provides a portion of its disciples an opportunity to enter the Sword Pool and find a suitable desired weapon.”
“However, only a limited number of spots are available. Only disciples with outstanding Sword Dao talent or those who have made significant contributions to the Sword Hall are given the opportunity to enter.”
“Although you have cultivated Mutated Wind Thunder Sword Grass and Starlight Sword Grass, as well as ordinary second-grade Sword Grass and so on. However, you’re slightly in deficit to be able to go into the Sword Pool. But as I understand, you must be able to figure out the method of condensation of the Wind Thunder Sword Grass. Furthermore, missing out on this opportunity would mean waiting several years to be able to enter the Sword Pool again. Therefore, I am doing my utmost to get you the chance to search for a sword in the Sword Pool.”
Shen Ye spoke jovially with a chuckle.
