Chapter 342 – Remaining in the Auger
Chapter 342 – Remaining Jiao Dragon
Of the twenty Third Grade Hidden Yuan Grasses, three were fully matured, and the remaining seventeen were not much longer away from being harvested.
After Lu Xuan carefully inspected them, he executed the Spiritual Rain Technique, and wisps of spiritual qi drifted down, moisturizing the mediocre Hidden Yuan Grass.
“After leaving the sect for three years, I didn’t expect to come back and harvest such a big wave.”
Lu Xuan was joyful in his heart as he stretched and continued to inspect the rest of the spiritual plants in the spiritual field.
Not far away, although the three Sword Raising Gourds were of the same grade as the Hidden Yuan Grass, there was a difference in the way they were cultivated; the Hidden Yuan Grass could grow normally in such a rich and pure spiritual qi environment in the Inner Sect, while the Sword Raising Gourds needed to absorb the remnants of sword intent from inside the flying swords.
Plus the planting time is a bit shorter, so there is still a period of time before it matures.
He took out some second-hand flying swords from his storage bag and piled them up underneath the vines.
During his trip to the secret realm, he had obtained several storage bags, and there were some flying swords of decent quality in them, which were the most suitable for cultivating the Sword Nurturing Gourd.
The green colored gourd hanging on the vine originally had a sickly look, after sensing the sword intent from below, swoosh sword qi stirring sound came from inside the gourd, Lu Xuan detected a wave of excitement from the gourd.
He came to the Fourth Grade Five Element Fruit Spiritual Plant, which bore a colorful spiritual fruit, and the five attribute auras lingered around the fruit, naturally fused together and distinct.
Lu Xuan sensed the state of the fruit and released the corresponding Five Element Spells, causing the Five Element Spiritual Energy around the fruit to operate more smoothly.
Then, he came to the Fourth Grade Spirit Embracing Pine.
The Inner Spirit Pine had grown to a height of one person, and sensing Lu Xuan’s familiar aura from afar, the pine waves gusted and clattered.
The corners of Lu Xuan’s mouth hooked up as his Spiritual Awareness spread to the branches and leaves of the Spirit Pine.
A vivid and lively pure thought came from within the pine plant, tightly surrounding Lu Xuan’s spiritual sense, the pine leaves shaking, seemingly questioning why he hadn’t come to see himself for a long time.
Lu Xuan used his Spiritual Sense to continuously pacify and communicate, which caused the thoughts inside the four Inner Spirit Pine plants to settle down.
Perhaps it was too long without communication and cultivation, the spirit pine for his spiritual consciousness to a point of extreme hunger, so that Lu Xuan had a kind of difficult to resist the feeling.
After satisfying the needs of the Spirit Pine, he arrived at the Earth Fire Tributary Cavern and leapt down.
Dark red stone walls, a recessed cave entrance, and the scorched black Phoenix Wood was lying quietly in it.
The surface of the charred wood had countless dark golden cracks, the cracks extended all the way down, forming a pair of lifelike phoenix shadows in the center.
“Sure enough, the Third Grade Red Lotus Flame left behind earlier has been sucked up by it.”
Lu Xuan muttered in a low voice.
Before leaving the sect, he had purposely left behind a Red Lotus Flame as nourishment for cultivating the Sixth Grade Ancient Wonderwood Phoenix Wood, but the difference in grade between the two was too great, and the Red Lotus Flame had long since been absorbed by the Phoenix Wood.
This time back to the cave, from the Flame Fruit light cluster opened out several Red Lotus Flame, Lu Xuan took out one.
With a thought, the Lotus Flame rapidly rotated and flew towards the Phoenix Wood.
Layers of crimson petals burned and merged into the dark gold cracks in the charred black wood.
In an instant, the dark golden cracks were filled with red lotus flames, and a crimson lotus flower flew out from the center of the charred wood, and inside the lotus flower there was a pair of thumb-sized phoenix silhouettes, chirping crisply and fluttering happily.
“Sixth-grade Phoenix Wood, cultivating it with third-grade Red Lotus Flame at the initial stage of growth is already enough, after it grows to a certain stage, then we’ll see if we can obtain a higher-grade foreign flame.”
“Maybe by then, I’ll have comprehended the Pure Yang True Flame from that Pure Yang True Flame Talisman, and can directly use it to nourish the Phoenix Wood.”
Lastly, there were the three dormant Dragon Skeleton Grass Spirit Seeds left at the bottom of the small lake.
As soon as Lu Xuan arrived at the edge of the small lake, there was a loud clatter and a fiery red scaly dragon flew out from the bottom of the lake.
The scaly dragon was two feet long, with a slender body, wrapped in crimson scales, with light fiery red spiritual energy flowing through the scales, and a crimson crystalline dragon horn was born on top of its head, which was extremely divine. “Growing this big?”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment.
At that time, when he traveled to Empty Underworld Island, he had left the young Jiao in the sect, not realizing that after three years had passed, the Riverside Flame Jiao, which was originally less than a zhang, had already grown to its current level.
The Departing Fire Jiao let out a low growl towards Lu Xuan and stretched its head over, allowing Lu Xuan to stroke the crimson dragon horn on top of its head.
“Come out and take a look at your former pendant.”
Lu Xuan released the fat bird.
The Wind Falcon had just landed on the ground, and in a daze, sensing the figure’s sizzling aura, it quickly jumped back a large step with a sensitive reaction that didn’t fit its figure.
The Fire Jiao looked at the fat bird that suddenly appeared, wanting to get close, but its movements were a bit rusty.
Like a left-behind child whose parents went out to work and came back only after a year.
The Wind Falcon gazed at the fire jiao that had more than doubled in size, its eyes darting around, its only spirit feeling extremely confused.
Previously also hung on his neck, feet on the small little how suddenly so big?
Lu Xuan didn’t give the two little ones the time to describe their friendship, and released the Rock Armored Turtle and the Green Horned Dragon Carp from the Taowu Bug Sac.
“In the future, you’ll be the boss in this little lake, so you have to keep an eye on these two little brothers.”
He instructed to the Departing Fire Jiao.
The Rock Armor Turtle was mischievous and lively in nature, changing to a new growing environment had no effect on it, and its thick turtle shell swam happily in the small lake.
The Green Horned Dragon Carp, on the other hand, stayed quietly in the corner, not moving at all.
It was originally proud of itself contains a little true dragon bloodline, in front of the earthy rock armor turtle has a huge sense of superiority.
But came here, found away from the fire jiao, feel the jiao dragon in the body of the same source of the powerful bloodline, this sense of superiority has disappeared, honest, do not dare to have the slightest reckless action.
Lu Xuan took out the purple jade coral and placed it at the bottom of the lake, then came to the location where the Dragon Skeleton Grass Spirit Seed was hidden.
“After the trip to Empty Underworld Island and obtaining the Third Grade Xuan Yuan Heavy Water and the Spirit Extracting True Liquid, it’s finally time to start cultivating the Dragon Wreckage Grass.”
The fifth-grade Dragon Wreckage Grass Spirit Seed had been placed at the bottom of the small lake, but unfortunately, it could not fulfill the cultivation conditions before, so it had to be wasted, wasting time for nothing.
He took out the Xuan Yuan Heavy Water from his storage bag, and his spiritual sense controlled the three drops of spiritual liquid weighing more than ten kilograms to fly out of the jade bottle, dropping them one by one on the three strange stones with the Dragon Wreckage Grass Spirit Seed.
The ebony spirit liquid seeped into the stones without a sound, and three slight but stirring dragon roars sounded.
Inside the strange stone, three light black slender dragon shadows flew out, the dragon shadows fluttered and rotated around the strange stone, and after a few moments, they merged into the strange stone.
“The strange stone is the skeleton of a scaly dragon that has lasted for an unknown number of years, and with the addition of Xuan Yuan Heavy Water, it is considered to be the official start of cultivating the Dragon Skeleton Grass.”
“However, it’s best to use fresh scaly dragon skeletons.”
“There are so many Jiao dragons and chi dragons raised in the Thousand Dragon Lake, it’s not a problem to exchange a few skeletons from Huang Yuan or other fellow disciples.”
Lu Xuan sensed a faint pressure coming from the Dragon Skeleton Grass Spirit Seed hidden in the strange stone and thought secretly in his heart.
