Chapter 403: Chapter 401 – The Maturing Holy Infant Fruit Plant_1
With this idea in mind, Lu Xuan approached the Strange Longevity Peach Spirit Plant.
The peach tree had already grown to be more than one person tall. It appeared ordinary on the outside, unlike the Third-Rank Bewitching Fairy Peach that naturally emitted an alluring ambiance. However, when one got close to the Spirit Plant, they could smell a tempting fragrance from its branches and leaves.
It was like the unique milky scent of a baby that made one uncontrollably want to be close to it.
However, upon getting closer, Lu Xuan’s sharp Spiritual Sense noticed that the vitality in his body seemed to involuntarily flow towards the peach tree.
Lu Xuan activated his Spiritual Power to resist this trend.
“Drawing vitality from the cultivators or demon beasts for its use, no wonder the mature Spirit Fruits can extend one’s life span,” he couldn’t help but exclaim, as he moved to the Fifth Grade Blood Sin Flower.
The Hollow Blood Ball had grown much larger than before. Countless slender blood vessels, densely woven together, sensed Lu Xuan’s approach and wriggled continuously. They stretched out a section toward him, like leeches exhibiting an extreme thirst for fresh blood.
Through the numerous blood vessels, there was a different world inside the Blood Ball. An infinite blood sea was rising and falling, and in the middle, a strikingly bright blood-colored flower quietly bloomed, standing alone in the world.
“Please, let me suck one mouthful.”
The countless slender blood vessels extended towards Lu Xuan like tentacles. The tips emitted a strong suction force, causing a slight stir in the essence blood within Lu Xuan’s body.
With a wave of Lu Xuan’s hand, more than ten white jade small bottles flew out from his Storage Bag. One after another, the essence blood, like streams, poured down onto the Hollow Blood Ball.
All the slender blood vessels sensed the abundant energy contained in the Water Dragon Essence Blood, and instantly became active, vying for it.
“Don’t worry, you’ll get some too.”
He placed a white jade small bottle full of Water Dragon Essence Blood on the ground. The Blood Spirit Palm that had been circling him immediately crawled over. Its finger-like dark red stems gathered together, stretched into the small bottle, and sucked the essence blood to its fill.
“Thankfully, I have a good amount of surplus from the blood samples I took from the Jiaolong previously. Otherwise, it would be difficult to satisfy you two bloodsuckers.”
The Blood Sin Flower and Blood Spirit Palm, one was a Fifth-Grade and the other was a fourth-grade, both had a considerable demand for essence blood. Without the stable supply from the numerous Flood Dragons and Chi Dragons in the Thousand Dragon Lake, it would be challenging to feed these plants.
“Speaking of which, it’s been a while since I went to the Thousand Dragon Lake. I should find some time to do a checkup for those Jiaolong whelps, to ensure they are growing healthily and happily.”
Lu Xuan gave a faint smile.
In the corner of the courtyard, the Filthy Bug Grass had grown a fair amount. Its shape was strange and resembled countless bug corpses compressed together. From afar, one could already sense a strong, filthy smell.
“This small courtyard is pretty suitable for Filthy Bug Grass. Various forms of blood and flesh remnants, Yin Soul Resentment and filthy air.”
He operated his Spiritual Power to gather a pile of filthy things next to the Filthy Bug Grass.
Lastly, Lu Xuan came to the Holy Baby Fruit.
The Holy Baby Fruit Plant had already entered the mature stage. When Lu Xuan entered the courtyard, he saw a thin, grey-black baby fleeting by at a glance.
At the top of the plant, a fruit that resembled an embryo had formed. One could vaguely see a fierce-looking baby Demon Envoy inside.
Sensing Lu Xuan’s gaze, the baby stared back with its hollow eyes, seemingly meeting his gaze. But upon closer inspection, it vanished without a trace, shrouding itself in a hazy, gray-black mist.
Lu Xuan focused his mind on the Holy Baby Fruit Plant and noticed that the progress bar below was almost full.
“The nest has been prepared. The hidden Sacred Infant Fruit Mother Plant must have thought that a small fish is about to be hooked. It didn’t expect that what it’ll reel in would be a big fish.”
Lu Xuan had an expressionless face, sneering in his heart.
This Holy Baby Fruit plant is merely an offspring plant; there’s a complete fifth-rank mother plant behind. As a Spirit Plant Master, Lu Xuan is eager for the fifth-rank spiritual plants.
As for the risks involved, he has absolute confidence that he can effortlessly deal with the cultivator who is spreading the Holy Baby Fruit Offspring Plants.
This cultivator thought he hid in the dark, not knowing that Lu Xuan had already figured out his scheme.
With the enemy in the light and him in the dark, Sword Gate Town is near the Sky Sword Sect, where powerful cultivators are ready to help at any moment.
Shen Ye who’s in the late stage of Foundation Establishment at the Sword Hall, Ge Pu, Fire Scale Child, and Zhong Jing Shan, the three true inheritors of the teachings, all have deep friendships with Lu Xuan. Together with Mystical Sky White Luan and White Jade Sky Monkey, the two Guardian Beasts, even a perfect Foundation Establishment cultivator can be easily dealt with.
In addition, there is the small jade sword talisman given by Nascent Soul Real Person Gu Jiankong from the sect, which grants the right to summon Jindan Cultivators once. With these many factors, everything can be ensured to be foolproof.
With these thoughts, Lu Xuan completely put his worries to rest and took out the Underworld Mud Flesh from the storage bag and placed it underneath the Strange Longevity Peach.
In his spiritual sense, a pile of Underworld Mud Flesh formed buds on its surface and connected with the root stem of the Strange Longevity Peach, slowly merging into the peach tree’s root stem.
The milky scent from the peach tree in the small courtyard grew stronger, seeming as though it is about to suck in all of his life force.
Lu Xuan collected his spirit, found a vacant space in the courtyard, and took out eighteen Thousand-Worm Seedlings.
He applied the Earth Pulling Technique, and the black Spirit Soil underneath changed subtly, revealing eighteen appropriately-placed cracks.
The seedlings that looked like baby arms were incorporated into it, with the spiritual power surging, strands of Spirit Rain fell down.
His spirit was focused on the spiritual seeds in the shallow layer of the Spirit Soil. Suddenly, a thought surged into his mind.
[Thousand Worm Hands, a third rank group-living Spiritual Plant, likes to grow in an environment where there’s an accumulation of Demon Beast appendages, claws and teeth, and cultivator limbs. It’s an excellent material for refining certain Evil Techniques.]
[Under the influence of strong flesh and blood, numerous Thousand Worm Hand spiritual plants undergo an unknown transformation, their intentions intermingled, they can instantly gather and borrow the power of the surrounding same kind, forming an array, to collectively confront the enemy. When the number of spiritual plants is enough, they have strength close to the fifth rank.]
[In the environment of Extreme Cold Spiritual Power, the branches and leaves of the spiritual plants will become slow and sluggish, significantly affecting the speed and flexibility of the spirit plants.]
“It seems I need to collect more Demon Beast corpses. Their blood, soul, limbs, and the residual filth inside will all be very useful.”
Lu Xuan sighed.
He activated the Thousand Illusion Cloud Smoke Array and set off for the Wanbao Building.
In the gloomy courtyard, in the high sky, occasionally, a grey-white eyeball would jump out of nothingness, coldly gazing at the Holy Baby Fruit offspring plant below.
Lu Xuan arrived at a deserted place, confirmed that he didn’t attract the attention of other cultivators, took out Thousand Masks, and attached it to his cheek.
Suddenly, a chill spread from his facial features to his limbs. Lu Xuan stimulated his thoughts, quietly changed his facial features, transformed into an ordinary-looking young cultivator and rapidly arrived at the Wanbao Building.
Just as he entered, an attractive woman greeted him. As she slightly swept over Lu Xuan with her spiritual sense, her expression changed drastically.
“Elder, what can I do for you?”
With a stern face, Lu Xuan nodded slightly and said,
“Summon the branch manager of this Wanbao Building. I have a high-rank treasure that I need him to handle.”
“Yes!”
A few breaths later, a round-faced elderly man came in front of him, wearing a warm smile on his face.
“This friend seems unfamiliar. Is it your first time visiting Wanbao Building?”
