Chapter 206 – Those Who Fish for People, People Fish Constantly
Spiritual energy surged within his body, and the Earth Drawing Technique controlled the Spiritual Soil to undergo subtle changes.
A small pit appeared, and Lu Xuan carefully placed the embryo-shaped Spirit Seed in his hand inside the pit, and then his mind coalesced above the Spirit Seed.
A thought flashed through his mind.
[Holy Infant Fruit, fifth-grade spiritual plant, after ripening, the fruit can be taken directly to enhance a cultivator’s spiritual awareness and improve their root bones, it can also be used as the main ingredient in refining fifth-grade Holy Infant Pills, increasing the success rate of cultivators breaking through realms, and the upper-quality Holy Infant Fruit can also be used to refine out-of-body incarnations].
[When cultivating it, it needs to be planted in a Yin Qi and Yin soil environment, adding infant essence blood, souls, and grievances during the growth stage can speed up the growth rate.]
[When exposed for a long period of time, it is possible to be affected by the rich grievance qi within the plant and be tainted by the yin qi and grievance qi.]]
[Child plants, when mature, can merge with the mother plant and integrate into it. Within a certain range, the mother plant can specifically sense the aura of the daughter plant, and when approaching maturity, it can attach itself to the daughter plant and observe and sense the surrounding situation.
“Worthy of being a fifth-grade spirit plant equivalent to the JieDan realm, the efficacy is really too strong.”
Lu Xuan subconsciously sighed.
“However, what is the meaning of the sub-plant that appeared within the message? This Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed is just a seed produced by the mother plant, not an independent one?”
Lu Xuan’s expression slowly became somber as he recalled the information in his mind.
“The mother plant is able to find the location of the daughter plant, and can also inspect the surrounding situation through the daughter plant? In other words, when the Sacred Infant Fruit is nearing maturity, where my spiritual field is and every move I make could be known by the mother plant?”
When Lu Xuan thought about this, a look of fear instantly appeared on his face.
“That is to say, I spent countless amounts of blood and essence to cultivate this fifth-grade Saint Infant Fruit sub-strain to maturity, and then attracted the mother plant as well as the cultivators behind it to confirm my location, understand my strength, and thus plot against my fortune while taking back the mature sub-strain?”
His expression was cloudy, and in his heart, he was incomparably fortunate that he was able to learn the detailed information about the spirit plant he had planted, otherwise, it was likely that he would have lost both his money and his person as a result.
“No wonder that old man from the Ten Thousand Treasures Building said that the Sacred Infant Fruit was quite evil, and that most of the cultivators who planted it ended up dying tragically or disappearing.”
“I initially thought it was just a blackmail, but I didn’t realize that it was all man-made.”
He slowly calmed his mind and considered how to deal with this fifth grade Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed.
The current him had two choices.
One was to directly dig out the Spirit Seed and throw it far away into the wild mountains before it took root, leaving it to fend for itself.
Or, he could offer it at a low price as soon as possible, exchanging it for some spirit stones and resources to stop the loss in time.
The second option is to plant it in a spiritual field and cultivate it normally.
After all, this was the first fifth-grade spirit seed he had obtained, the richness of the light mass after maturity was imaginable, and it had cost a considerable amount of money, so to just give it up straight away like this, for him, who had always been thrifty and frugal, was tantamount to cutting a large chunk of meat.
The main thing was that the offense and defense were now changed between the two sides.
Without noticing the abnormality of the Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed, the cultivator behind him could borrow his resources to cultivate the Holy Infant Fruit sub-strain to maturity, and then understand his strength, location, and take back the sub-strain while also secretly sneak attacking and plotting to kill him.
But now, Lu Xuan was already clear about the detailed characteristics of the Holy Infant Fruit’s daughter strain, and could completely use this to lay a trap, reverse capture the cultivator behind it, and get the Holy Infant Fruit’s mother strain in his hands.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible, and he secretly calculated the possibility of success in his mind. “My own strength is at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, I have a lot of treasures on me due to the light cluster rewards, and the Spirit Glow Grass is in the improvement stage, so I should be able to rapidly raise my cultivation level after success.”
“More importantly, I have the behemoth that is the Heavenly Sword Sect behind me, so when the Holy Infant Fruit is about to mature, I can invite those two spirit beast thighs in the sect to help press the issue.”
“In addition, there’s also Yang Qingfeng who raises the Ink Scale Jiao, Shen Ye, the Hall Master of the Si Nong Hall, and Ge Park, the true disciple who raises the Yin-Yang Kun Fish, the three of them are at a minimum of mid Foundation Establishment Cultivation, and they either hold me in the highest regard, or they owe me a favor, so they can also be invited over to sit on the ground.”
“Well …… this backup group should be strong enough.”
“If I really can’t, when the Sacred Infant Fruit Strain is about to mature, I’ll transplant it inside the sect and see if that back up cultivator has the guts to come over to look for the spirit fruit.”
Lu Xuan secretly thought.
“The one who spread the Holy Infant Fruit Seed Strain Spirit Seed bait is most likely that dry and thin old man in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and the possibility of there being a JieDan Cultivator behind it is slim to none.”
“After all, if a JieDan cultivator wanted to be unfavorable to a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he could just directly crush it, there is absolutely no need to go through such a great deal of trouble, and only if his own strength is insufficient would he come up with that kind of trick.”
“In that case, I’m in the open, that person is in the dark, my own strength is still okay, I can also invite the protective spirit beasts, powerful fellow disciples to sit in.”
“Under this premise, the risk of booby-trapping the cultivator behind it would be nothing compared to getting a fifth-grade spirit plant.”
After Lu Xuan had considered it over and over again, and after making sure that he had calculated everything, he decided to continue planting this Sacred Infant Fruit Substrain Spirit Plant.
A fifth-grade spirit plant, far away from approaching maturity, could be carefully arranged and planned for.
“Didn’t you want to use the spirit seed to fish? Didn’t think you would be fished back, did you?”
“Those who fish for people, people will always fish for them.”
Lu Xuan was intensely murderous towards the cultivator behind the scene who was not only white-knighting himself, but also wanted to take his life.
He had always been the one who gripped others’ wool and whored others for nothing, but he had never thought that today he would be pecked by a wild goose and become the target of being whored for nothing.
He made a decision in his mind and returned his attention to the Spirit Seed.
“The cultivation environment is quite suitable, this small courtyard has numerous Yin souls and grudges, as well as white bones, impenetrable demon eyes, and multiple Yin spirit plants, making the small courtyard spirit field rich in Yin Qi, which can completely ensure the normal growth of the Holy Infant Fruit.”
“However, if you want to speed up becoming it will be a bit difficult, infant essence blood, souls, and grudges to nourish, it sounds like it will be a compromise of yin virtues, and is extremely inconsistent with my identity as a disciple of a prestigious sect.”
“We can only think of another way, in the early stage, we can set up a task in the Concourse Hall, and let those outer disciples who love life and death combat to hunt and kill evil cultivators, and obtain that type of yin and evil things from them.”
He had a preliminary plan in his mind on how to cultivate the Holy Infant Fruit, and his spiritual energy surged, controlling the Yin Qi in the courtyard to condense into an air mass, transforming into wisps of tiny spiritual rain that seeped into the Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed.
Embryo-shaped spirit seed, dry and skinny gray and black baby seems to stretch a little, but at a second glance, you can only see a cloud of gray and black things, gray and black breath expansion and contraction, seems to have what is conceived in it.
After nourishing the Holy Infant Fruit Spirit Seed, Lu Xuan took out the giant scorpion corpse from his storage bag, and the red spirit pattern on the Red Flame Sword surged out, carefully cutting the six-eyed Red Iron Scorpion’s corpse into portions.
