Out of the fifteen mature Spirit Firefly Grass plants, there were six of good quality, seven of superior quality, and the remaining two were of perfect quality.
Lu Xuan carefully packed the fifteen mature Spirit Firefly Grass plants into the White Jade Box, one by one he picked up the fifteen white light clusters that appeared.
Multiple thoughts flashed through his mind.
[Harvested one stalk of Spirit Firefly Grass, gained six months of cultivation progress.]*!
[Harvested one stalk of Spirit Firefly Grass, gained nine months of cultivation progress.]*4
In an instant, wave after wave of spiritual power surged into Lu Xuan’s body, raging wildly within his dantian and meridians like a turbulent sea wave.
Once everything settled down, Lu Xuan felt that his cultivation level had increased significantly, bringing him closer to the Qi Refinement Eighth Level. The remaining nine white light clusters brought Lu Xuan four First Grade Talismans, two of which were First Grade Sword Qj Talisman, one Explosion Flame Talisman, and one Evil Banishing Talisman.
In addition, there were three First Grade Qi Cultivation Pills, which Lu Xuan put inside a jade bottle along with the ones he had obtained before.
From the light clusters of the two perfect quality Spirit Firefly Grass plants two Second-Grade Sword Qi Ten Thousand Talismans emerged.
By now, his storage bag was filled with seven Second-Grade Sword Qi Ten Thousand Talismans, dozens of various First Grade Talismans, all neatly categorized and placed.
Lu Xuan checked and stored all his rewards before returning to his room to rest.
He took out the book he got from the red-clothed girl, “Common Spiritual Plants and Their Handling Methods,” to strengthen his impressions of various spiritual plants.
After reading for a while, he got up to cook. Lunch was quite simple he steamed two bowls of Spirit Rice, fried some Wind-dried Spiritual Beast Meat, and added a mixed Spirit Fruit salad. He and the Civet each had their own food. The taste was so-so, prompting Lu Xuan to miss the Spirit Spring-boosted Red-bearded Carp he had eaten before. He couldn’t help but wish for the Iron Claw Crab Juveniles to grow quickly.
After a brief rest, he returned to the Spirit Field.
The Iron Claw Crabs at the bottom of the Spiritual Spring Pool were recovering well. In such a short time, they regained their vitality and crawled all over the bottom of the pool again.
One of them even tried to climb over the stone wall of the pool using its hard pincers in an attempt to gain freedom.
Lu Xuan was greatly comforted by their resilience, and even a flicker of self-criticism flashed in his mind.
Could it be that they recovered so quickly because he didn’t push them hard enough?
He instructed the Cloud Leopard to snatch up the four Iron Claw Crab Juveniles, and before they even settled, a rough piece of Fine Iron Ore was presented in front of their pincers.
The juveniles seemed to have forgotten their lesson from the morning, and with their blackish-green pincers raised high, they snapped the offered ore fiercely.
“Yes, that’s it. Don’t be discouraged. Just keep going, and you will process all the ores.”
“No, you’ll conquer the Ore Demon, and it won’t be able to provoke us with ores anymore.”
Lu Xuan smiled slightly, providing a more fitting encouragement.
He took a tour around the Spirit Field and noticed when he passed by the section with the Sword Grass plants, that the progress bar underneath them had reached its maximum, entering the fully mature stage.
The quality was superior.
He carefully pulled out the Sword Grass and immediately, a thought emerged within his mind.
[Sword Grass, a Second-Level Spirit Plant. Resembles a sword blade, extremely Sharp, and is considered an Innate Sword Implement. It can be directly used or can be used to forge a Flying Sword.)
What surprised Lu Xuan was that the parts of the Sword Grass that grew above ground resembled sword blades, while the root and stem underground were also related.
There wasn’t a speck of dirt on it when it was pulled out, the roots had shallow lines running on them. The feeling in the hand when holding it, felt exactly like holding a Flying Sword.
Indeed, it is a natural Sword Implement…”
The more Lu Xuan looked at the Sword Grass, the more he loved it. The previous Spirit Firefly Grass, Moon Erosion Fruit, Blood Jade Ginseng, Red Cloud Pine, etc., could only be used as materials after maturation. The Sword Grass, however, could be used directly as a sword implement.
Suppressing his internal joy, he carefully kept the Sword Grass and shifted his gaze to where he had planted it.
A white light cluster was gently shimmering.
Full of expectation, Lu Xuan lightly picked it up and immediately felt countless points of light pouring into his body.
A thought swiftly came to his mind.
[Harvested one Sword Grass, gained Third-Rank Thunderbolt Sword Pill.)
A small ball appeared in his hand.
The size of a chicken egg, it was made up of countless fine Sword Qi. The Sword Light was tender and indeterminate, and there was a black tornado inside, with lightning occasionally appearing.
[Thunderbolt Sword Pill, Third-Rank Treasure, nurtured within the Cultivator’s body, can convert Spiritual Power into Sword Qi, the Sword Light divides, strongly offensive, can also be integrated into the sword implement to nourish the sword and enhance the rank of the sword.]
[Dividing Sword Light will consume a large amount of Sword Qi. After frequent use, Sword Qi will be in shortage and need to be replenished with Spiritual Power timely.)
“Third-Rank Treasure, Sword Pill…”
Lu Xuan looked at the egg-sized Sword Pill in his hand, opened his mouth, and immediately the Sword Pill transformed into numerous subtle Sword Intents that drilled into his throat.
Back into the shape of a Sword Pill in the Dantian, Lu Xuan split a ray of Spiritual Power and explored it within the Sword Pill.
Suddenly, it was like a black storm, thunder and lightning, the Sword Pill surfacing a surge of Sword Light and filled with Sword Intent.
So this is how you use Spiritual Power to nurture…”
Lu Xuan suddenly realized and opened his mouth to spit out countless tiny
Sword Qi. They flew out of his body, and in front of him, they once again transformed into the shape of a Sword Pill.
He controlled the Sword Pill to revolve in the air, the speed was so fast it formed several afterimages.
A movement of thought, several Sword Lights stretched out from the ball wrapped in black aura, chilling to the bone. There was lightning jumping on the sword’s edge.
In Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense, these several Sword Lights were responding freely, barely a thought in his heart, and these several Sword Lights would whistle and shoot towards the ground. The ground had several dark small holes, deep and bottomless.
‘It’s no wonder it’s a Third-Rank Treasure known for its offensive power.”
Lu Xuan discreetly stuck out his tongue, amazed at the strength of the Thunderbolt Sword Pill.
“Just like the Concealed Spirit Wear, it consumes too much Spiritual Power.
Even with ample Spiritual Power nurturing it, it still requires large amounts of
Spiritual Power to operate.”
“Of course, this is not a problem with the Third-Rank Thunderbolt Sword Pill
and the Concealed Spirit Wear, but a problem with me.”
‘I originally thought that not too bad was my Qi-Cultivating Seventh Level Cultivation Level. I couldn’t help but be a little complacent. Yet these two Third-Rank treasures made me feeling distressed, with Spiritual Power insufficient for use.”
Of course, this was just a delightful predicament.
With these two Third-Rank treasures, whether dodging danger or directly facing a strong enemy, he had a great reliance.
“Currently, for offense I have Third-Rank Thunderbolt Sword Pill, Blood Burning Arrow Technique, Second-grade Red Threaded Needle, Two Grade Sword Grass, for support I have Third-Rank Concealed Spirit Wear, Three Grade Pure Jade, but just a little inadequate on the defense, only the First Grade Defensive Technique Wood Wall Technique and the Second-grade Defensive Magical Instrument Red Scale Armor.”
However, even with only these two items, it would still be considered outstanding amongst the Qi-Cultivators.”
The appearance of two Third-Rank treasures, Lu Xuan’s strength increased momentarily, becoming more convinced of the cultivation path for the future. Before a higher-ranked Spirit Plant that could replace the Spirit Firefly Grass appears, mass cultivates Spirit Firefly Grass to increase Cultivation Level. At the same time, cultivates high-grade spiritual plants whenever possible, not just for the value of the Spirit Plants themselves, but more importantly for the rich light cluster rewards upon maturation.
Focusing on both quantity and quality, he needed to strengthen both sides, progressing together..
