Translator: 549690339
The Sword Nurturing Gourd has grown a small section of tender green vines.
The vine clings onto the old First-Grade Flying Sword, climbing upwards, as for the flying sword, under the absorption of the Gourd Spirit Seed, the Sword Intent within it has completely disappeared and was transformed into an ordinary strip of iron.
“It can actually be used as a gourd rack.”
Lu Xuan propped up the discarded flying sword to facilitate the growth and climbing of the Sword Nurturing Gourd vine.
He took out three second-hand First-Grade Flying Swords from the Storage Bag, placing them around the gourd to fulfil the gourd’s growth requirement for Sword Intent.
Then, he came to the third-grade Flood Dragon Vine. After absorbing the blood of numerous species of Jiaolong Pythons, its growth sped up significantly, and the black vines resembled a thick, long, poisonous snake.
“What taste should we go for today? Let’s go with this one!
Lu Xuan took out a white jade small bottle from his Storage Bag. Inside the bottle was the blood of the Two-headed Jiao Dragon.
The blood contained a large amount of violent aura. After pouring it over the vine, the Flood Dragon Vine’s body became much more aggressive.
He found the Phantom Smoke Fruit, guided the patterns on the tree trunk and leaves of the Flowing Light Wood, visited the Yin Locust in the cave, gave some Copper Iron Mineral Powder that had been crushed by the Iron Claw Crab to the Copper Bone Bamboo, and separated the endlessly tangling Blood Jade
Ginseng.
After a flurry of busyness, Lu Xuan finally arrived in front of the remaining fifty Spirit Firefly Grass.
He used these Spirit Firefly Grass for seed condensation, so after they had matured, he didn’t immediately harvest them, instead, he allowed them to continue their growth and guided them to produce grass seeds according to the methods recorded in the ‘Bai Cao Tang.’
At the tip of the slender leaves, the embryonic shapes of the grass seeds could be visibly seen. Each Spirit Firefly Grass plant would likely condense into about ten Spiritual Seeds. Once they reach a certain stage, these seeds need to be picked and processed and stored using special means.
After returning to the cave dwelling, Lu Xuan resumed his previous lifestyle.
Every day, he would go to the Thousand Dragon Lake to feed the bunch of Jiao Long Pythons he had tamed, and spend the rest of his time cultivating Spiritual Plants and nurturing Spirit Beasts.
One day, he noticed an abnormal movement outside the courtyard. When he reached the door, there was a Communication Talisman hovering in mid-air, trembling slightly, and waiting for Lu Xuan’s touch.
“Junior Brother Lu, I am Xia Chen from the Agricultural Department Hall. Master Shen Ye has already arrived at the hall. After hearing that you could independently cultivate Sword Grass, he has taken quite an interest in you.
Please come over.”
A familiar voice emanated from the talisman. It was from that old Farmer Monk who had brought him good news.
“Master of the Agricultural Department Hall, Shen Ye…
Such a big shot, who could manage a hall of the Sky Sword Sect, needless to say about his Cultivation Level, and who also managed the allocation of various Spiritual Seeds of the Sky Sword Sect. He was in a position of great power and influence.
The fact that such an important person wanted to see him, who was still at the Ninth Level of Qi Cultivation, because of the Sword Grass, made Lu Xuan somewhat trepidacious.
Adjusting his state of mind, he set off for the Agricultural Department Hall. “Junior Brother Lu, you have arrived. Let’s go see Master Shen together.
The old farmer monk Xia Chen had sharp eyes and spotted Lu Xuan, pulling him into the inner hall.
Lu Xuan learned from his mouth that Shen Ye had a Foundation Establishment Late-term Cultivation Level and was in charge of the Agricultural Department Hall. He had extremely deep knowledge in the Spiritual Plant Path and was also a renowned Sword Cultivator.
They arrived shortly at a secluded and simple room.
In the middle of the room, a monk with a mild temperament was sitting. On the monk’s lap rested a deep black Sword Case that caught everyone s attention.
“Master, this is Junior Brother Lu Xuan who cultivated the Sword Grass.” The gentle monk raised his head, gazed at Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan felt as if a gentle Sword Intent was sweeping over him, and he hurriedly bowed in respect.
“Lu Xuan pays his respects to Master Shen!” “Indeed, a hero is born out of youth. At such a tender age, you have managed to cultivate the Sword Grass, one of the foundational Spiritual Plants of the Sky
Sword Sect.”
Shen Ye smiled at Lu Xuan.
“You need to have a profound level of swordsmanship to cultivate Sword Grass.
Show me your best Sword Technique.”
“Alright.”
Lu Xuan understood that the kind cultivator wanted him to demonstrate his skills in sword dao to assess his claim of successfully cultivating Sword Grass. With a simple thought, a surge of Golden Sword Qi burst forth from within him.
The Sword Qi agilely moved and turned, showing no signs of dissipating for an extended period of time.
“Grandmaster level Sword Technique! No wonder you could easily cultivate
Sword Grass all by yourself.”
Shen Ye’s face revealed a look of surprise.
“Although it’s just a first grade Golden Sword Technique, you’ve managed to cultivate it to grandmaster level. This means you have an exceptional talent in the path of the sword dao, and it’s through hard work and perseverance that you’ve reached such a high level.”
“Hall Master is too kind, Lu Xuan is unworthy.”
Lu Xuan replied with some trepidation, without offering any additional explanation.
“What outstanding talent in sword dao, what hard work and perseverance – those are all fictitious! It’s just that I’ve used a substantial number of Sword Technique experience packages, that’s all!”
He thought quietly to himself.
Having confirmed Lu Xuan’s abilities in sword dao, the kind cultivator proceeded to ask him about the details of cultivating Sword Grass.
How to nourish and stimulate the growth of Sword Grass with Sword Qi, how to master the right degree, the changes in the form of Sword Grass at each stage…
Lu Xuan responded calmly. Even though his control of Sword Technique left much to be desired, he truly managed to cultivate Sword Grass in all sincerity. Having adopted a meticulous approach towards its cultivation, he was very familiar with every stage of the Sword Grass’s development, making his answers fluent and eloquent.
The smile on Shen Ye’s face grew brighter as he nodded repeatedly.
“Very good, I am now ninety percent convinced about your claim of cultivating Sword Grass. The remaining ten percent of doubt exists only because I have not witnessed it with my own eyes.”
“This is the first time I’m seeing this happen. According to the sect’s rules, only inner sect disciples are allowed to cultivate Sword Grass and yet, you have prematurely cultivated them.”
He paused briefly to ponder.
“Here’S the deal, in order to ensure authenticity, I will personally provide you with two Sword Grass Spirit Seeds for free. If you manage to cultivate them successfully, they are yours to keep.”
“If you can successfully cultivate them, the sect will make an exception and take you in as an inner sect disciple, aiding you in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.”
“Before coming here, I looked into your cultivation aptitude. It’s just average, to be honest. To reach the Perfect Qi Cultivation stage, you’d need no less than ten years. Not to mention, getting from there to the threshold of Foundation Establishment is even more challenging.”
“The maturation of a second-grade Sword Grass would take about one to two years. As long as the quality of the Sword Grass you cultivate is not greatly different from the previous strain, I will induct you into the group of cultivators who improve and cultivate Sword Grass. The benefits you will gain at that time will undoubtedly be immense.
“So that’s the deal,” said the gentle cultivator Shen Ye to Lu Xuan.
“Thank you, Hall Master Shen!”
Lu Xuan quickly replied.
If he could get two free Sword Grass Spirit Seeds and then reap a lot of benefits after successfully cultivating them, any hesitation would be disrespectful to the White Light Group.
“These are the two Sword Grass Spirit Seeds and a Communication Talisman. If something important arises, you can directly contact me.”
As his words faded, the gentle cultivator’s figure disappeared from the room, leaving two elongated gray-black spiritual seeds, shaped like swords, and a White Jade Talisman in front of Lu Xuan.
“Junior Brother Lu, you’ve been highly regarded by Hall Master Shen Ye and received Sword Grass Spirit Seeds. You are indeed very fortunate.”
The old farmer cultivator in the corner saw this and couldn’t help but show a look of envy on his face..
