“It’s similar to the Silver Split Blade magic artifact I obtained before, but I have no idea how many light clusters it will take to unlock the lower half of the ‘LiuLi Bone-Tempering Method’.”

Back in the North Quarter Courtyard, when the rankless Moon Erosion Fruits matured, Lu Xuan would occasionally receive Silver Split Blade fragment rewards. It took quite a while to collect about twenty fragments to complete the full Silver Split Blade artifact.

Now that the upper part of the ‘LiuLi Bone-Tempering Method’ has appeared, it only needs to unlock the lower cultivation technique of the Foundation Establishment Stage to complete it. Compared to the Silver Split Blade, this is much less challenging.

On the three entangled Clear Wonderful Spirit Tea trees, each has six or seven tender green leaves. After picking four leaves, Lu Xuan counted, leaving fifteen more.

“Fifteen Clear Wonderful Spirit Tea leaves should be enough to unlock the lower half of the ‘LiuLi Bone-Tempering Method’.”

Lu Xuan was full of confidence.

After resting for three days, he returned to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall again to find a suitable task to earn sword marks.

He currently has a total of eighty-seven sword marks, most of which came from improving the cultivation method of Monkey-faced Orchids.

Last time he was acquiring spirit plants in the Agricultural Department hall, Lu Xuan casually asked about the number of sword marks needed for rare spirit plants.

Second-rank rare spirit plants typically cost around twenty sword marks, and as for third-rank spirit plants or seedlings, depending on their rarity and’ effectiveness, the cost ranges from tens to a hundred sword marks, with the least costing no less than fifty sword marks.

In his Cave Mansion’s Spirit Field, he already has several second-rank spirit plants. Given that his cultivation level is about to break through to the ninth level of Qi Training, Lu Xuan doesn’t plan to plant a small number of second-rank spirit plants.

His plan is to exchange for a rare third-rank spirit plant or seedling. When it matures, he is quite confident of breaking through to the initial stages of Foundation Establishment and the reward he would obtain would be well-suited.

If he were to get two or three second-rank spirit plants, by the time they mature in about a year, he might end up with a treasure that’s relevant only to the Qi Training stage, which would be somewhat underwhelming.

The Miscellaneous Affairs Hall is still bustling as ever.

Twenty to thirty disciples of the Sky Sword Sect gathered in front of a gigantic light screen, staring intently at the task information appearing on the screen. Lu Xuan noticed that the most popular tasks involve collecting spiritual medicine or hunting specified demons in certain secret lands.

These tasks reward highly in themselves and while venturing into secret lands, one may also have the chance of obtaining additional spiritual medicine, demon beast materials, or even cultivation techniques and elixirs, reaping multiple rewards.

Additionally, there are a considerable number of tasks for investigating and eradicating demon envoys. Then, there are tasks about the four cultivation arts of elixir, weapons, magic array, and talisman. These tasks have various requirements that most cultivators are unable to meet.

Tasks concerning spirit plants and spirit beasts are not very common and their rewards are of the lowest tier.

However, these tasks are the most suitable for Lu Xuan.

By cultivating spirit plants and raising spirit beasts, he can master their specific conditions, making it easy for him to complete, or even overachieve these tasks.

The previous mission with Monkey-faced Orchids is a case in point, where he reaped a sword mark reward that was twice the task’s pledge.

He quietly stood in a corner, scanning over the continually updated task contents, eventually choosing a spirit beast nurture task.

“[Nurture Young Flood Dragon Task, need to feed young flood dragons, Chi Dragon Big Snake, etc. in Thousand Dragon Lake twice daily. Requires strong will, task reward is ten sword marks per month.”]

Lu Xuan touched the task content on the light cluster with his Spiritual Sense, suddenly, an idea entered his mind, revealing all the relevant details of the task.

Among tasks about spirit beasts, nurturing tasks are the simplest for Lu Xuan, after all, he just needs to raise spirit beasts to understand their instant status,’ which aligns perfectly with what the task requires.

Additionally, he had a bit of a vested interest: less and less Blue Water Python blood came from the market, and Lu Xuan wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could borrow some demonic blood from the many Flood Dragons, Chi Dragons and Giant Pythons in Thousand Dragon Lake.

About an hour later, Lu Xuan arrived at his mission destination on a Spirit Crane.

The Spirit Crane was quite timid and didn’t dare to fly directly over the lake, so it took a detour. Lu Xuan, considering that the price stayed the same, didn’t argue with it.

He dismounted from the Spirit Crane and came to a few stone houses.

Various smells of demon beast’s blood came from the stone house, which made the usually kind-hearted Lu Xuan feel somewhat uncomfortable.

After entering the stone house and stating his purpose, a Qi Cultivation

Perfection cultivator quickly familiarized him with the conditions of the Thousand Dragon Lake.

Junior Brother Lu, Thousand Dragon Lake stretches for hundreds of miles, and many Flood Dragons and different species of Pythons are raised in it. Among them, there are no shortage of third-grade and even higher-grade Flood Dragon demon beasts.”

The Qi Cultivation Perfection cultivator named Huang Yuan looked mature and steady.

“Of course, the habitats of the third-grade Flood Dragons are protected by powerful prohibitions, and also have Foundation Establishment Uncle Masters raising them; they cannot be accessed by us Qi Cultivation Disciples.”

“We are primarily responsible for the younger Flood Dragon demon beasts which are mostly second-grade. In addition, there are all kinds of different pythons and giant snakes, at first and second-grades. Some of them are rare different species, collected and raised by the elders of the sect in the Thousand Dragon Lake.”

“Every part of the Flood Dragon demon beasts is a treasure. Flood Dragon skins, Flood Dragon scale armor, Flood Dragon bones, Flood Dragon blood, etc., all have wide applications. Therefore, they must be cared for carefully’ without the slightest negligence.”

Huang Yuan introduced the situation in detail to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan nodded continuously.

“Brother Huang, what do I need to pay attention to when raising them regularly?”

There are mainly two aspects, One is feeding the Flood Dragon cubs that belong to you, there is no need to worry about food, fresh demonic beast’s flesh and blood are provided every day.”

’During the raising process, these beasts will scramble for food and can even instigate fights. This is something that must be paid attention to.”

“Besides, Flood Dragon demon beasts are known for being fierce, and sometimes they exhibit their wildness, trying to attack the cultivators who are raising them.”

“But that is just for show, they actually pose no threat to us at all. There are prohibitions in the air above the lake, and also magic tools to control them.”

Huang Yuan laughed and lifted his arm. A golden bracelet spun slowly around his wrist; within the bracelet’s circumference, it seemed like a dragon was continuously moving.

“The Dragon Binding Ring, it is said to be able to bind True Dragons. Of course, that which is on my wrist is an imitation of imitations, and the difference between it and the real product is like that between heaven and earth.”

“This in my hand is a third rank magic artifact, which can easily control second-grade Flood Dragon cubs and giant Python demon beasts.”

You 11 get one too, Junior Brother Lu, but it can only be used within the territory of the Thousand Dragon Lake during the mission period. It cannot be taken out of the Thousand Dragon Lake. When we leave, the Imitation Dragon Binding Ring must be returned.”

“Junior Brother Lu, you must remember not to be greedy for this third rank magic tool, otherwise, you will regret it.”

“This kind of situation has arisen many years ago: a Qi Cultivation disciple had greedy thoughts and wanted to swallow an imitation Dragon Binding Ring. In the end, they were caught by the Precept Hall’s Master Uncle and received a substantial punishment.”

Huang Yuan said with a smile.

Lu Xuan nodded, indicating he understood. Although he had been immersed in the Five Pillars Dragon Binding Technique for many years, when faced with numerous Flood Dragon demon beasts, he still felt helpless. Having a useful magic tool to control them would be nothing short of fantastic..
