A white light group suddenly appeared at the location of the Blood Jade Ginseng, with a hint of spiritual light flickering, as if reminding Lu Xuan to pick it up.
With a thought, Lu Xuan took it and the white light group turned into countless light points that poured into his body. A thought emerged in his mind.
“Harvested one Blood Jade Ginseng, acquired one Second-Class Elixir, Blood Essence Pill.”
A bright red elixir appeared in Lu Xuan’s palm. The elixir, the size of his thumb’s tip, had tiny red lines on its surface. He could feel the rich blood energy contained within.
The Blood Essence Pill, a second-class elixir, can quickly restore a cultivator’s vital energy and also enhance the training speed of qi and blood refining techniques.”
“For a first-class Blood Jade Ginseng, the light group reward is a second-class elixir. Not bad.”
The Blood Jade Ginseng he dug out had unevenly long roots, like blood-red jade, it was of good quality.
Lu Xuan continued to examine the remaining nineteen plants and quickly found two more Blood Jade Ginsengs with full progress bars.
“Harvested one Blood Jade Ginseng, acquired one Second-Class Elixir, Blood Essence Pill.”
The second Blood Jade Ginseng was also of good quality and he got another Blood Essence Pill, also of the second class.
“Harvested one Blood Jade Ginseng, acquired the second-class secret technique, Blood Burning Arrow.”
A thought flashed through Lu Xuan’s mind, and then a profound formula method appeared in his knowledge sea.
The method of casting, precautions, cultivation method, etc., all kinds of detailed information flooded into his brain.
“Blood Burning Arrow, second-class secret technique, cultivates a blood arrow nurtured inside a cultivator’s body with their own vital blood; it shoots out from the mouth orifice, extremely fast and powerfully lethal.”
“The more burning essence blood, the greater the power of the blood arrow. Frequent use is not recommended.”
“Second-class secret techniques are rare. However, this one seems to be of the type that kills a thousand enemies but hurts 800 of yourself. Avoid using it as much as possible unless necessary.”
Lu Xuan thought.
This Blood Burning Arrow secret technique is extremely powerful and its attack mode is counteractive. However, it has a big aftermath, requiring the burning of a cultivator’s own essence blood.
However, this second-class Blood Essence Pill does go well with this technique.”
He plans not to purposely cultivate this secret technique since practicing it requires consuming his own vital blood. It would be best to get the Blood Burning Arrow Experience Package from the white light group, which will automatically raise the secret technique’s proficiency.
As for the Blood Essence Pill, he will collect it for emergencies.
Although the remaining seventeen Blood Jade Ginsengs are eighty to ninety percent mature and could be picked directly, Lu Xuan patiently left them in the spirit soil.
Only by maximizing the quality of the spirit plants can one get better rewards. The Perfect Grade Red Cloud Pine Nut that he previously opened up and the Third Grade Immaculate Jade that it yielded is the best proof of this.
Good quality Blood Jade Ginseng gave two Blood Essence Pills. Superior quality ones gave the Blood Burning Arrow secret technique, which once again confirmed his speculation.
Three days later, the seven first-grade spirit plants that Manager He helped to buy were almost ripe, so Lu Xuan picked them directly, hoping to get some diseased spirit plants at the end.
The remaining second-grade spirit plant was growing with the first two-grade Baiwen Wood, and it would take some time for it to mature.
Just as he was packing up and preparing to go out, suddenly he felt a slight weight on his left shoulder. He turned his head to see the Cloud Leopard was lying on his shoulder, its four white cloud-like paws firmly gripping his clothes.
“Come down, come down, I’m going out. You stay home and watch the house, I’ll bring back something tasty,” Lu Xuan said.
The Cloud Leopard didn’t move, its pair of azure pupils staring coldly ahead.
Lu Xuan knew the civet juvenile had clung to him. He reluctantly let it sprawl on his shoulder.
Fortunately, he had the Two-Level Misty Enchantment Array for protection, so he wasn’t too worried. After instructing the grass puppet in the spirit field, he set off with the Cloud Leopard on his shoulder.
In the loose cultivator market, it had been a while since Lu Xuan had come, and he felt that the market had gotten busier. The cultivators passing by did not seem as anxious as they had been before.
Accompanied by his Cloud Leopard, Lu Xuan strolled around leisurely.
Suddenly, a yellow-red figure rushed towards him at a high speed.
He remained calm, with the Red Threaded Needle in his sleeve trembling slightly, ready to be unleashed.
The yellow-red figure stopped just before it could touch Lu Xuan.
Only then did Lu Xuan get a clearer look at the figure.
It was a peculiar-looking four-eyed monkey.
Its body was covered in yellow-red fur and it had exceptionally long arms. There were ridges extending from both sides of its bright red nose, stretching all the way to the nostrils. It had four eyes, with two red and two white pupils, which together with the strange ridges on its nose formed a ghost-like pattern.
At this moment, the strange monkey was circling around Lu Xuan, its pupils constantly moving. He saw a look of yearning in its eyes.
With the surrounding cultivators appearing calm at the appearance of this strange beast, Lu Xuan held back his initial impulse to attack the monkey.
Only the Cloud Leopard on his shoulder was howling, its back arched, ready to pounce at any moment.
“Little Four, stop!”
A clear female voice called out. Before the voice had even faded, a girl in a red dress rushed over like a moving flame.
“Dear cultivator, I apologize if my spirit beast has disturbed you,” she said as she stopped, looking at Lu Xuan with an apologetic expression.
“It’s alright,” Lu Xuan responded indifferently. His spiritual power began to circulate quietly within him. He could sense that the girl in the red dress in front of him had deep spiritual power and was likely a high-level Qi practitioner.
This four-eyed Red Demon and I have grown up together. It’s adept at detecting and tracking demonic aura. It seems that It was drawn to something on you that it likes,” the girl in the red dress explained to Lu Xuan, then paused, with a curious expression, she questioned Lu Xuan.
Have you, by any chance, recently come into contact with any spirit fruit that demonic beasts are fond of?”
Upon hearing that the four-eyed monkey was skilled at detecting and tracking demonic aura, Lu Xuan immediately recalled the words of his neighbor cultivator a few days ago. He guessed that the girl was very likely one of the sect monks invited by the Wang family.
His thoughts shifted, and he pretended to ponder:
“Spirit fruit that demonic beasts enjoy? I don’t seem to remember anything like that.”
“However, I am a Spirit Plant Master at Bai Cao Tang in the market and often deal with all kinds of spirit plants. It’s possible that I might have come in contact with such a fruit during this time.”
A picture of the Red Cloud Pine Nuts flashed in Lu Xuan’s mind. If there was anything on him that would attract a spirit Beast, nine out of ten times, it would be the five Red Cloud Pine Nuts in his storage bag.
Though these thoughts went through his mind, he chose not to disclose them to the girl in the red dress. Instead, he made up a random excuse and used Bai Cao Tang’s name to boost his own image.
“I see,” said the girl in the red dress, seemingly not doubting his words. As she was about to leave after pulling the four-eyed red demon by its arm, she noticed the Cloud leopard on Lu Xuan’s shoulder.
“Your Cloud Leopard with twin pupils is rather unique. If nurtured properly, it could possibly develop some special abilities.”
“Really? Thank you for the heads up. In that case, I’ll have to take even better care of it,” Lu Xuan responded, feigning surprise and gratitude. He had long been aware of the uniqueness of the Cloud Leopard through its real-time status. However, he needed to keep up appearances.
After the girl in the red dress left with the four-eyed red demon, Lu Xuan’s hidden Red Threaded Needle finally withdrew its spiritual energy, returning to a calm state..
