Chapter 128 – The Cultivation of Fields with a Sudden Change in Picture Style
Chapter 128 – Planting Fields with a Sudden Change in Style
“Fellow Daoist, how about buying this weird spirit seed for a hundred spirit stones? This is already higher than many ordinary second-grade spirit seeds, and it’s a fair price for a spirit seed of unknown type and grade.”
Although Lu Xuan had urgency in his heart, his tone exuded a relaxed disinterest.
“One hundred spirit stones is also too low! This Spirit Seed looks so peculiar, it seems to be a rare and uncommon species, so let’s do it this way, one hundred and fifty Spirit Stones, and you can take it away directly.”
The one-eyed elderly cultivator took a big step back.
“Even if it’s some rare and uncommon spirit plant, without knowing the cultivation method, that won’t help.”
Lu Xuan pointed out the most crucial part of the problem.
Little by little, he grinded the price with the stall owner, and finally got his hands on this Third Grade Thorn Bone Spirit Seed for one hundred and twenty spirit stones.
Little more than half a day later, Lu Xuan stood in a small courtyard and looked around.
The Heavenly Sword Sect stipulated that disciples within the sect were not allowed to cultivate and raise evil and exotic types of spirit plants and spirit beasts.
He now had five sleeping Ghostface Stone Mushrooms in his hands, as well as the Thorn Bone Spirit Seed that he had just obtained, one feeding on grudges and the other needing to absorb skeletal essence, neither of which was a proper spiritual plant.
But if he were to give them up because of this, Lu Xuan was not willing to give them up in his heart, after all, both the Ghostface Stone Mushroom and the Thorn Bone were third grade spirit plants, and once they matured, it would mean a lucrative Light Cluster Reward.
In desperation, he came up with a countermeasure, renting a small courtyard in Sword Gate Town, specifically for planting and cultivating Thorn Bone this style of spirit plant.
As soon as he thought of it, he quickly found this one small courtyard.
The small courtyard is located in the more remote location of the sword gate town, inside the spirit field area is not large, only half an acre or so, but the good thing is that the richness of the spirit qi pure aspects are not bad, than Lu Xuan before in the Lin Yang workshop in the spirit field some good.
He bargained and finally rented this small courtyard at a price of forty spirit stones per month, with the rent being paid for half a year in advance.
Then, he bought a second grade protection array, enveloping the small courtyard within the array.
“Worthy of being near a sect, this small piece of spirit field surprisingly requires forty spirit stones per month.”
Lu Xuan thought with some pain.
The Third Grade Thorn Bone Spirit Seed used up one hundred and twenty Spirit Stones, the rent of the small courtyard together with the deposit was two hundred and eighty Spirit Stones, and the Second Grade Formation was roughly two hundred Spirit Stones.
With this, he still had about twelve hundred spirit stones left in his hand.
“One can only hope for a greater return on this payment.”
A third-grade spirit plant, and another of this Dark Evil Alien type variety, Lu Xuan had a few extra expectations in his heart for the white ball of light.
He planned to use this small courtyard to cultivate the Evil and Treacherous Class Spiritual Plants, coming out from the Heavenly Sword Sect every once in a while to fulfill the growth needs of the Spiritual Plants.
Of course, with this type of cultivation, he wouldn’t be too concerned about fine cultivation, and being able to cultivate to maturity would already be a good result.
Lu Xuan thought in his mind as he took out the five Ghost-faced Stone Mushrooms that he had gotten from the Secret Realm from his storage bag.
The Ghost-faced Stone Mushroom Spirit Seed was still in slumber, and the strange patterns on its grayish-white surface hadn’t changed in any way, as if it was a bizarre face.
“After getting it for so long, I can finally plant it.”
Lu Xuan executed the Earth Drawing Technique and buried the five Ghost-faced Stone Mushrooms in the spirit soil.
Then, he took out the Second Grade Grieving Soul Bell that he had specially bought.
Gently shaking the bell, the numerous Yin Soul Grievances within the bell slowly seeped out from the surface lines under Lu Xuan’s drive.
Soon, ten translucent Grieving Souls stood frozen in front of Lu Xuan.
These Yin Souls had already lost their spiritual intelligence, and with only a few instincts remaining, they were manipulated and driven by Lu Xuan, the owner of the Grievous Soul Bell.
Lu Xuan controlled them to stand together, and as the spiritual energy in his body changed, a golden yellow sword qi shot out electrically, and in an instant, it strangled the ten Grievous Souls into thousands of Grievous Soul fragments. The fragments had countless extremely mutilated Yin Souls’ grievances on them, wailing in silent agony.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan’s golden-yellow sword qi moved in and out, continuing to chop and slice all the grievous soul fragments until they could no longer be split.
Then, gathering these tiny fragments of grudge souls together, he divided them into five small piles and evenly coated them on the surface lines of the Ghost Face Stone Mushroom.
As his mind condensed on top of the Ghostface Stone Mushroom, Lu Xuan instantly noticed that the Ghostface Stone Mushroom, which was originally like a hard stone, had slightly changed.
Those lines that formed the weird faces were slowly absorbing the ghost fragments.
“Kneading the grievous souls can indeed awaken the sleeping Ghost-faced Stone Mushroom.”
Lu Xuan’s heart rejoiced as he sensed that the five Ghost-faced Stone Mushrooms were gradually reviving.
He went to the other side of the small courtyard’s spirit field and performed the Earth Drawing Technique, and tiny cracks appeared in the spirit soil.
Lu Xuan placed the strangely shaped thorn bone into the middle of the crack, and then, took out a fresh skeleton that still had traces of blood and placed it next to the thorn bone.
When he was preparing the protective formation, he had incidentally bought some fresh first grade demonic beast skeletons in the Lapis Plaza, which he used for the growth needs of the Thorn Bone as it sucked in the skeleton essence.
It didn’t take long to put in the skeletons before Lu Xuan sensed that the third grade thorn bones in the spiritual field were producing subtle changes under the stimulation of the skeletons.
On the messy, slender white bones, there were bone spines as fine as hairs quietly generated, slowly piercing into the fresh skeleton placed by Lu Xuan, drawing on the essence within.
Due to the fact that there was still the task of raising the Jiao Long Python within the sect, Lu Xuan was not in a good position to stay in Sword Gate Town for too long.
Seeing that the Ghost-faced Stone Mushroom had already awakened, he took out fifty complete Grievance Souls from the Grievance Soul Bell, and placed demonic beast skeletons all around the thorn bones.
At a glance, the small courtyard spirit field was filled with gusts of gloomy winds, the ghostly souls and grievances wandering about, and a small mountain of white bones in the corner, making for a sinister and odd scene.
“Well ……”
“What about the promised cozy farming? How to me this picture suddenly changed so netherworld?”
Lu Xuan sighed as he held his forehead and activated the formation.
In his heart, he was fortunate that the Sword Gate Town was near the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the cultivators inside were not as mixed up as those in the marketplace, so the safety of the small courtyard could still be greatly guaranteed.
With this thought in mind, Lu Xuan passed through the Perpetual Star Dipper Sword Formation outside the Heavenly Sword Sect and returned to his cave.
As soon as he opened the door to the courtyard, a pale green fat bird about three feet tall jumped onto Lu Xuan’s shoulder with a plop.
“Hehe, the little guy is growing quite fast!”
Lu Xuan’s shoulders sank as he looked at the slightly larger Wind Falcon hatchling and sighed.
The Cloud Treading Lynx lazily lay on the ground, its turquoise pupils faintly gazing at Lu Xuan.
“Come come come, I brought you guys back delicious food.”
Lu Xuan hurriedly took out two portions of demonic beast meat from his storage bag and placed them one by one in front of the two little ones.
Taking advantage of the gap between their enjoyment of the demonic beast meat, Lu Xuan came to the Spirit Field.
As far as the eye could see, the Grass Puppet was clumsily and slowly patrolling the Spirit Field, and the many Spirit Plants were full of vigor, exuding a vigorous and upwardly mobile power, in stark contrast to the small, gloomy Spirit Field in Sword Gate Town.
“This is the correct way to open a spirit field ah ……”
Lu Xuan leisurely sighed as he came to the spirit field and began to inspect the growth of the numerous spirit plants.
