“Third-Rank Treasure, Immaculate Jade…”
Lu Xuan held the transparent jade talisman in his hand, muttering to himself.
“I never expected that a First Grade Red Cloud Pine’s light cluster would yield a third -rank treasure. ”
He was surprised. Even though the difference between the second and third ranks may not sound significant, there is in fact a qualitative distinction.
Second Grade Treasures are still in the Qi Practicing stage, primarily used by intermediate and high-order Qi cultivators. In contrast, Third Rank Treasures are in the Foundation Establishment category.
“I guess the perfect grade must account for much of it. But the higher the rank of the spiritual plant, the harder it is to get a mature perfect grade. This time, I was lucky that one of the five Red Cloud Pine nuts was of perfect quality,” Lu Xuan speculated.
A third -rank Immaculate Jade, though mainly auxiliary, is extremely valuable.
It can help defend against and resist the invasion of demon envoys, a feature alone that could cause countless cultivators to scramble for it.
You must understand, the Cultivation World is full of crises. The ways demon envoys invade cultivators are varied and silent. Yet, possessing this
Immaculate Jade could protect one from Sneaky Level Evil Invasion pollution.
Moreover, long-term wearing of the Immaculate Jade can also slightly enhance a cultivator’s spiritual sense.
Other than advancing through breakthroughs, there are few ways to enhance spiritual sense, usually through special Cultivation Techniques, high-grade elixirs, or certain heavenly treasures.
Recently, Lu Xuan had felt an undercurrent flowing through the increasingly insecure market, with cultivators transforming continuously. Even the local enforcer Wang Shan fell victim to demon envoys. Recently, even polluted strange worms and spirit plants have appeared.
All these signs indicated that the market was developing numerous problems, with increasingly more evil cultivators and demon envoys draining it like leeches.
The Immaculate Jade’s presence could at least prevent Lu Xuan from being harmed by demon envoys. From now on, let the big clans and forces in the market handle the rest.
For Lu Xuan at present. Planting spiritual plants is the most crucial task.
He found a thin, red string and attached the transparent jade talisman to his chest.
A cool and chilly sensation spread from his chest, keeping Lu Xuan’s mind clear. The invisible spiritual light on the jade talisman swept over him, dispersing the turbid aura from his body.
After harvesting all five Red Cloud Pine nuts, the spiritual plant lost its function.
Lu Xuan knew that spiritual plants are generally divided into three types.
The first type matures only once, losing functionality upon maturity. Such plants are common among low-grade spiritual plants, just like the Spirit Firefly Grass, Moon Erosion Fruit, and current Red Cloud Pine.
The second type has a fixed lifespan, during which spirit fruits or leaves would regularly mature. In his garden, Lu Xuan suspected the second-grade Clear and Wonderful Spirit Tea belonged to this type.
The last type consists of plants that increase in effectiveness with age, generally being high-grade spiritual plants.
Of course, there are numerous types of spiritual plants, and Lu Xuan dared not guarantee that no other types would appear.
He placed the two Red Cloud Pine nuts alongside the other three, intending to sell them when the opportunity arose.
The pine nuts, filled with abundant spiritual power and boasting a unique delicious taste, are especially popular among female cultivators. Lu Xuan possessed mostly good quality nuts and expected they would fetch a good price.
In the following days, besides the usual cultivation of spiritual plants, raising Red-bearded Carps and Cloud Leopards, Lu Xuan concentrated on the Flood Dragon Vine and the gradually recovering Blood Spirit Leaf.
The Azure Water Python, worthy of its status as a second-grade demonic beast, is much more potent than the Double-Winged Golden-Scaled Snake blood Lu Xuan previously acquired from Wanbao Building.
After the blue-green blood was poured on the Flood Dragon Vine, it took over a day for the green patterns to slowly disappear.
The blood of the Azure Water Python would probably last for over ten days.
Lu Xuan guessed that this might be a little overwhelming for Yu Jie’s father. After all, even though they possessed a secret technique for hunting snake-like demonic beasts, his cultivation level was only at the level of Qi Practicing Fifth Level, and it was not easy to hunt Tier-2 demonic beasts in large quantities over a long period.
Under Lu Xuan’s careful care, the Blood Spirit Leaf had mostly recovered, except for scars-like marks on the broad leaf, which looked a little incongruous.
It was already almost mature, so Lu Xuan decided to pick it and, as expected, no white light group appeared.
The quality of the Blood Spirit Leaf after picking was poor, it was the first time that such quality spiritual plants appeared in his spirit field.
Lu Xuan wasn’t bothered by this. After all, being able to recover it was a reasonably good achievement, and he hadn’t spent too much effort or time carefully cultivating it.
Upon the successful recovery of the diseased Blood Spirit Leaf, Lu Xuan quickly put it into his storage bag and eagerly went to Bai Cao Tang.
There were about twenty or thirty spirit Plant Masters collaborating with Bai Cao Tang, but without Lu’s ability to keep track of the state of Spiritual Plants at all times, they could only defend passively, so naturally, the number of plants showing signs of disease was higher.
As soon as he entered Bai Cao Tang, Manager He, who was counting spirit medicines on the counter, spotted Lu Xuan.
“Kid Lu, is there any problem with the spiritual plants in your spirit field?”
“Thanks for your concern, Old He, everything is normal with no signs of contamination in the Spirit Field.”
Upon hearing the thin old man’s concern. Lu Xuan felt warmth in his heart.
“Good to hear that. And what about those two diseased Blood Jade Ginseng and Blood Spirit Leaf? Have you figured anything out?” Manager He asked as he sighed in relief hearing Lu Xuan’s response.
Lu Xuan smiled and didn’t respond but took a spiritual plant out of his storage bag.
“This is a recently matured spiritual plant. Could you give an estimate on its value?”
“This
The thin old man’s eyes fixed on it.
Although the spiritual plant in front of him was unsightly and of poor quality, his rich experience allowed him to instantly recognize it as a Blood Spirit Leaf.
As far as he knew, the spiritual plants that Lu Xuan supplied to Bai Cao Tang were Blood Jade Ginseng and Spirit Firefly Grass, so the answer was apparent. “Did you manage to restore that severely diseased Blood Spirit Leaf to normal?”
He asked in astonishment. It’s important to note that not only one Spirit Plant Master at Bai Cao Tang could cultivate Grade Three Spiritual Plant, yet they were often at a loss when dealing with plants contaminated by invasion.
Among them, the two plants they had removed due to severe disease showed no sign of improvement despite numerous attempts.
Lu Xuan, a no-organization spirit plant master, successfully restored one of them, which was indeed surprising. “Ahem!”
He coughed lightly to hide his surprise.
“This plant has suffered extensive damage, and the spiritual energy contained within it is lower than normal.”
“Lowering my standards, I’ll take this inferior spiritual plant for twenty-five spirit stones!”
He couldn’t stand Lu Xuan’s smugness and pretended to be indifferent, speaking casually.
“Haha, thanks, Old He.”
“I was even thinking about collaborating with you, but since you don’t value this inferior spirit plant, I guess that’s not an option..”
