Chapter 358: Chapter 356: Wind-Thunder Sword Talisman, “Wind Thunder Sword Scripture” !
Inner Sect.
Lu Xuan traveled through various Formation Restrictions before returning to his own cave dwelling.
After exchanging at the Sword Gate Town for the Fourth Grade Celestial Blue Dan Fire and Fifth Rank Vajra Bodhi Spirit Seed, he didn’t linger around and quickly returned to the Sky Sword Sect.
He opened the Flowing Light Formation and directly arrived in the Spirit Field. Spiritual power was rippling and the structure of the Spirit Soil was undergoing subtle changes.
Lu Xuan took out the Vajra Bodhi Spirit Seed and placed it in a perfectly sized crevice.
Then, with a deep breath, condensed his spirit onto the deep black ellipsoid spirit seed.
A thought flashed through his mind.
[Vajra Bodhi, Fifth Rank Spiritual Plant, condensed in the Buddhist Blessed Land, can be nourished and cultivated using elements like incense fire, aspiration power, and Buddhist chants, thus speeding up its growth.]
[The matured Spirit Fruit contains formidable Buddhist power. Consuming it can significantly strengthen the flesh body, improve vitality, and make it easy to fend off evil forces. It can also speed up the cultivation speed of corresponding Cultivation Technique Divine Skills.]
“Fifth Rank Spiritual Plant!”
The thought vanished, and a hint of joy appeared on Lu Xuan’s face.
“Regrettably, the nurturing methodology is somewhat unique and necessitates certain Buddhist artifacts.”
“I just don’t know if that Soul Guiding Zen Fragrance can be effective.”
Lu Xuan lamented in his heart.
Soul Guiding Zen Fragrance is refined by Buddhist cultivators by collecting thousands of fragrances. It can comfort the soul and purify the Yin Soul Resentment.
Thinking of this, he took out a yellowish incense that was stored in his Gluttonous Insect Pouch.
Incense smoke curled up to form a lotus pedestal in the space above its tip. On the lotus pedestal, there seemed to be a Buddha holding a flower and smiling mildly.
He gently manipulated a wisp of smoke using his spiritual sense, letting it permeate into the Vajra Bodhi Spirit Seed.
After absorbing this wisp of smoke, the angry Vajra on the surface of the Spirit Seed seemed to look more vivid and majestic.
“It has a slight effect, but it doesn’t seem to be very profound.”
Lu Xuan carefully sensed the state of the spirit seed and concluded.
Perhaps due to the smoke not being pure incense-fire, although it could be used for nurturing Vajra Bodhi, it was only useful in the early stages.
“As for the Buddhist chants, I wonder if there’s a chance to let the Illusion Sound Bamboo listen and remember them, and then play them for Vajra Bodhi. Although it’s somewhat makeshift, it might still be slightly effective.”
With his principle of conservation in mind, Lu Xuan had an absurd thought and turned his gaze to the Fourth Grade Illusion Sound Bamboo in his Spirit Field.
He returned to the yard, took out some spirit fruits and demon beast meat, and fed them to several spirit beasts who were attracted by the smell.
Lu Xuan went inside the house and took out the Heavenly Blue Pill Fire.
The various spiritual medicines for refining the Foundation Building Pill were still being collected, so he wasn’t in a hurry.
In the following period, he stayed in the cave dwelling with peace of mind, cultivating spiritual plants and raising spirit beasts.
In the Spirit Field, under his careful care, various Spirit Plants successively reached the maturity stage.
“The Wind-Thunder Sword Grass has matured.”
Lu Xuan looked at the fully filled progress bar under the Wind-Thunder Sword Grass ahead and commented.
The sword grass was a dark green color, with dense thunderbolt patterns on its surface. Numerous minute black sword Qi surrounded it, just like a terrifying hurricane that seemed to be generating sword howling sounds.
[Wind Thunder Sword Grass, Third-grade Spiritual Plant, cultivated with the power of Wind Thunder Sword Qi, contains strong Power of Wind and Thunder.]
A thought flashed across his mind as he set his gaze on the subsequently appearing white light cluster.
With a gentle touch, the light cluster transformed into countless minute points of sword Qi, which surged forth and instantly integrated into Lu Xuan’s body.
[You have harvested a third-grade Wind Thunder Sword Grass and obtained a fourth-grade Wind-Thunder Sword Talisman.]
A talisman, shaped like a sword tip and made from a material that was neither gold nor jade, appeared in his palm.
Inside the talisman, a whirlwind swirled, lightning flashed, and thunder roared, creating an apocalyptic scene.
[Wind-Thunder Sword Talisman, a fourth-grade talisman, contains powerful Wind and Thunder forces. It can instantly unleash endless Wind and Thunder Sword Qi. Once fully activated, it can severely injure or even kill most mid to late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.]
“Another fourth-grade Sword Talisman, I didn’t expect that the Wind Thunder Sword Grass could also yield a talisman-style treasure.”
Lu Xuan examined the Sword Talisman in his hand, looking mildly surprised.
The fourth-grade Sea Screaming Sword Talisman, Great Sun Sword Talisman, and Starfall Sword Talisman he had previously received all came from the Sword Nurturing Gourd Light Ball. The Sword Grass had previously yielded Sword Intent, Flying Swords, and Sword Pills, but never a Sword Talisman. However, he was quite pleased with this outcome.
The fourth-grade Sword Talisman had considerable offensive power, which had been proven in the Boundless Sea Secret Realm. Currently, he only had one Roaring Sea Sword Talisman and one Great Sun Sword Talisman left. Gaining another Wind-Thunder Sword Talisman was quite satisfactory.
He stored the Sword Talisman and continued to inspect the spirit field.
He had obtained twenty ordinary Sword Grass Spirit Seeds, one Third-Rank Starlight Sword Grass Spirit Seed, and one Fourth Grade Sword Thousand Owls Spirit Seed from the Sword Hall.
He nourished and cultivated ten ordinary Sword Grass with the “Four Seasons Sword Art”, while the remaining ten were placed in the scabbard to be nurtured with the Sword of Wind and Thunder edge, cyclically mutating into the Wind Thunder Sword Grass Spirit Seed.
Because only one Sword Grass Spirit Seed could be enhanced at any given time, the growth rates of the ten Wind Thunder Sword Grass varied.
Lu Xuan planned to wait until one or two more matured before turning them in at the Sword Hall.
Over a month later, Lu Xuan stood amidst Wind Thunder Sword Grass, his palm transformed into crystal-clear jade. He carefully plucked the Sword Grass from the ground.
“An Innate Sword Instrument.”
Even though Lu Xuan had already harvested a dozen or two Sword Grass plants of various different types, he still marveled at their impeccably natural, Innate Sword Instrument nature.
This particular plant, perhaps due to its superior Spirit Seed or Lu Xuan’s meticulous care, was of good quality.
[Wind Thunder Sword Grass, third-grade Spirit Plant…]
A thought flashed across his mind, and Lu Xuan collected the white light cluster left behind by the Wind Thunder Sword Grass in the spirit soil hole.
[You have harvested a third-grade Wind Thunder Sword Grass and obtained a Fourth Grade Sword Art “Wind Thunder Sword Scripture”.]
Thoughts floated up in his mind, and a flood of information surged into his sea of consciousness in an instant.
Having absorbed and digested this information, Lu Xuan seemed to have gained an insight. Sword Qi of Wind and Thunder crisscrossed in his sea of consciousness, with exquisite Sword Arts manifesting effortlessly. Each move elicited a whirlwind and a thunderous roar.
“The Wind Thunder Sword Scripture…”
Murmuring to himself, Lu Xuan heard a faint sword hum emanating from the Wind-Thunder Sword held in his hand, seemingly resonating with the Sword Scripture that was so intimately connected with it.
“The Wind-Thunder Sword is a fourth-grade Flying Sword that contains a large amount of Wind and Thunder spiritual power. However, when using it, there is a lack of variety.”
“Now that I have this Wind Thunder Sword Scripture, it compensates for this deficiency, allowing me to use the Wind-Thunder Sword more effectively. Both complement each other, the result being more than the sum of their parts.” Feeling the changes in his body in detail, Lu Xuan became a beginner of this fourth-grade Sword Scripture after absorbing the information from the “Wind Thunder Sword Scripture”. This was far faster than when he cultivated the “Thousand Owl Sword Classic”, which was also a fourth-grade Sword Scripture.
“After absorbing a few more Sword Art experience packages, I should be able to reach proficient or even expert levels.”
“There is no greater talent in the Sword Dao than this.”
Lu Xuan, having already considered the Spirit Plant Light Cluster as his innate talent, thought shamelessly.
Among the Sword Grass he had cultivated, the mature ones included two third- grade Mutated Wind Thunder Sword Grass, ten ordinary second-grade Sword Grass, and one third-grade Starlight Sword Grass. He could now turn them in at the Sword Hall.
