Chapter 372 – Weird Spiritual Plants
“Oh? What does Senior Brother Lu say? Could the cultivation realm still be fake?”
The middle-aged Confucian showed a puzzled look on his face.
“Cultivation is naturally not fake, but the difference between being in the same middle stage of Foundation Establishment is not small.”
Lu Xuan gently shook his head.
“Senior Brother Yang should know me quite well, daily living with spirit plants, seldom leaving the sect, not to mention venturing out to explore the secret realm and hunt demonic beasts and evil spirits.”
Yang Qingfeng nodded in agreement.
He had known Lu Xuan for many years, and when he met up, the scenes were all related to spirit plants and spirit beasts, and when he occasionally proposed an invitation to Lu Xuan to explore a certain secret realm, he was politely declined.
It was only clear that Lu Xuan’s attainments in the path of spiritual plants were extremely deep, not weaker than those in the middle and late stages of Foundation Establishment or even true disciples within the sect.
“I have some talent in cultivating spiritual plants, and coupled with my extreme love for this craft, I have earned quite a few spirit stones and sword seals over the years.”
“However, the spirit stones and sword seals that I earned were basically used by me to exchange for pills to enhance my spiritual power, and there is not much left.”
“Constantly swallowing various pills, coupled with my own diligent cultivation, this is how I was able to break through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.”
“However, there are pros and cons to this approach, the pros are that the cultivation level rises faster, the cons are that I didn’t master a few decent arts, and I don’t have a single better magic weapon talisman in my hand, that’s why I said that I am empty of cultivation.”
“In case I run into a pre Foundation Establishment cultivator, I might not even be a match for him.”
Lu Xuan didn’t blush and weaved a rather reasonable excuse for himself.
“If you’re not good at fighting, then you can only use your cultivation realm to suppress your enemy.”
The middle-aged Confucian pondered for a while and finally said politely.
“So this is the reason I don’t explore much, it’s all up to my own few moments of self-knowledge.”
“However, being able to stay in the sect all the time is also quite good, being able to have an environment where I can cultivate spirit plants peacefully, I’ll be very satisfied on my own.”
“After breaking through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, the Spiritual Liquid within the dantian has increased quite a bit, just so I can use it to cultivate a higher grade and a greater number of is Spiritual Plants.”
Lu Xuan laughed.
Yang Qingfeng, however, took his smile as a helpless and bitter smile and spoke out to comfort him:
“Indeed, how many outer disciples within the sect have been unable to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm, and there are not a few Inner Sect disciples who have been stopped at the pre-Foundation Establishment stage after being promoted by fluke, Master Lu being able to go one step further and break through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage has already surpassed many of his fellow disciples.”
“Don’t care what method is used to break through, the cultivation spirit power is real, and it will be much easier to cultivate techniques and compete for treasures in the future.”
“Haha, what happens later, say it later, maybe one day luckily get many chances may also say.”
“Senior brother, take me to see those Ink Scale Jiao.”
Lu Xuan suggested.
The two of them arrived at the edge of the island, and Yang Qingfeng summoned the family of Ink Scale Jiao playing in the distance.
Lu Xuan looked at the happy Ink Scale Jiao family, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his face.
Immediately afterward, he took out the Red Thread Needle, a sharp weapon for extracting blood, from his storage bag, and with a thought, a tiny red light instantly disappeared into the abdomen of the relaxed Ink Scale Jiao.
“This hybrid fae Ink Scale Jiao really sells itself exceptionally well.”
While drawing blood from the Ink Scale Jiao that was mixed with the bloodline of the Clear Myriad Chi-Dragon, Lu Xuan noticed something extraordinary about it.
As the Ink Scale Jiao continued to grow, the Origin of the Clever Myriad Chi-Dragon contained within its body gradually awakened, causing a clear spiritual aura to linger around the Ink Scale Jiao’s body, and it was feared that it would be purified by any other evil and dirty things that approached it.
“Such good blood, can be utilized properly, until a certain period of time, can be used to cultivate the fifth grade blood sin flower.”
Lu Xuan thought secretly, and the jade bottle that received the Jiao Long Essence Blood stayed for a few more breaths, thus drawing a small half bottle of blood.
This little bit of essence blood was nothing to the huge-sized Fae Ink Scale Jiao, and Yang Qingfeng on the side didn’t notice Lu Xuan’s little action. After drawing blood for all the Jiao dragons and chi dragons to check, Lu Xuan stayed on the island and exchanged his insights on beast control and cultivation with Yang Qingfeng.
When he returned to his cave and was about to turn on the Flowing Light Rune Formation, Lu Xuan made a move.
A strangely shaped bug floated in front of him.
The strange insect was five short and three thick, with a huge eye pupil on its head that took up most of its size, and was looking at Lu Xuan without blinking.
In less than half a moment, two figures joined hands.
One had a dusty temperament, with one black and one white pupil, while the other wore a countless number of long and thin bugs and insects woven into a vestment, and his appearance looked a bit mute.
It was precisely the two True Legends that Lu Xuan recognized, Ge Park, who raised the Yin Yang Kun Fish, and Seed Jing Shan, who had a knack for harnessing insects.
“Senior Brother Lu, I left you a summoning talisman, and when I didn’t hear the news, I asked Senior Brother Seed to leave his eyes outside your cave, so when you come back the two of us will know immediately.”
Ge Park introduced the ins and outs of the previous scene to Lu Xuan.
“Two senior brothers, please come inside for a description.”
Lu Xuan welcomed the two into the cave and served them spirit fruits and spirit tea.
Seed Jing Shan looked around, his face expressionless.
Lu Xuan knew that he was searching for the Hundred Poison Heart Eating Insect with a special physique, and with a thought, the larva violently drilled out and came to Lu Xuan’s feet.
It seemed to smell something and turned its head in the direction of Caste Jingshan and sniffed, remaining by Lu Xuan’s feet.
The two of them had raised it for about the same amount of time, but here in Lu Xuan’s place, it was able to resolve the poisonous toxins immediately and easily after taking them, which was much more comfortable than when it stayed in the Insect Valley.
“Senior Seed Brother, this larva has had a pretty good time here with me, and there have been no more life-threatening situations.”
Lu Xuan took the initiative to explain, not worrying that Seed Jingshan would take the larva back again.
Unsurprisingly, Caste Jingshan nodded, expressing his relief.
“You tended it well.”
He was probably clear that this Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect larva had a special physique, but with all the adverse reactions, he had no way to sustain the larva’s life for a long period of time, so he could only give it to Lu Xuan and treat the dead horse as a living horse.
Now, seeing that the larva was alive and well, he was already relieved and had no other thoughts.
“The flavor of the Spiritual Syrup you brewed, Senior Brother Lu, is truly unique, I’ll have to ask for a pot from you later.”
Ge Park sipped a mouthful of the Hundred Fruit Spirit Syrup and marveled.
“Both senior brothers will bring a pot of Hundred Fruit Spiritual Syrup back later, I still have some here.”
Lu Xuan hurriedly said.
Ge Park thanked him and with a straightened expression, he took out a spirit plant from his storage bag.
The spirit plant was extremely odd in form, with roots of varying lengths wriggling like limbs, and large and small cracks growing on its trunk, the edges of which were all sharp and jagged, and the branches and leaves that extended out were constantly waving in the air, wanting to penetrate the aura barrier that Ge Park had casually laid down, and fiercely slapping on him.
“Master Lu you are specialized in spiritual plants, what do you think of this spiritual plant?”
He asked Lu Xuan as he carried the odd spirit plant.
“It’s a bit weird, extremely vigorous in life force and so aggressive, as if it’s not a spirit plant but a demonic beast.”
Lu Xuan frowned and said slowly.
