Chapter 426 – Dan Palace Seed Gathering
Chapter 426 – Seed Gathering in the Dan Palace
“Fifth grade formation!”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but utter an exclamation of surprise.
“The Illusory Five Element Formation, it can trap and even seriously injure and decapitate pre-JieDan cultivators, the power of the formation is truly terrifying.”
His heart rejoiced as he scrutinized the array flag array disk in his hand that was changing with the surge of five-colored spiritual energy.
“Counting up, this is the third formation I’ve opened from the Spirit Plant Light Cluster.”
“The Thousand Illusory Cloud Smoke Formation was opened from the Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit, the Flowing Light Rune Formation was opened from the Flowing Light Wood, and the current Illusory Five Elements Formation.”
He put the formation flag array disk away, deciding to use it to protect the many evil spirit plants in the netherworld’s small courtyard when he went to Sword Gate Town next time.
There were quite a few fourth and even fifth grade spirit plants planted in there, and although only the Holy Infant Fruit Strain that evil cultivator behind the curtain had attempted to break in once so far, Lu Xuan would naturally feel much more at ease if he could strengthen the level of defense of the small courtyard a bit more.
He seldom goes out on weekdays, almost no opportunity to set up formations to kill the enemy, formations to stay inside the clan is also a waste of time, set up in the small courtyard outside is quite suitable.
“The Five Elements Fruit is ripe, and the spiritual plants that the Dan Palace has commissioned to cultivate also include the Hidden Yuan Grass as well as the Jade Dew Fruit, so I have to go and turn in this Fourth Grade Five Elements Fruit, and by the way, gather some more spiritual seeds from the Dan Palace to come over.”
Lu Xuan secretly thought in his heart.
Having just gleaned a Fifth Grade Spirit Seed from Realist Qingxu, he wasn’t satisfied with it and decided to glean another one from the Dan Hall, the richest in the Heavenly Sword Sect.
“It’s not simply just for the Spirit Seed, but more mainly because I want to enable all my fellow disciples in the Dan Palace to have better spirit medicine materials to refine higher grade pills.”
He lamented a cheeky sentence.
Taking out the Dan Palace’s Alchemy Master Guan Ivana’s summoning talisman from his storage pouch, he punched in a bolt of spiritual energy.
“Senior Sister Guan, the Five Elements Fruit you entrusted to me earlier matured smoothly, if it’s convenient now, I’ll send it over to you, Senior Sister.”
“Is that so? That’s great, Senior Sister Lu doesn’t have to go through so much trouble, I’ll personally come over.”
A few moments later, a summoning talisman arrived outside of the Flowing Light Talisman Formation, and from inside came Guan Ivana’s gentle voice, a hint of joy flowing from within her voice.
Lu Xuan heard this and could only wait in the cave.
Perhaps it was because the Five Elements Fruit was extremely important, Guan Ivana came over extremely fast, just before the summoning talisman arrived, she came to the outside of the cave.
“Senior Sister Guan, welcome welcome welcome.”
Lu Xuan greeted her with a smile.
“There are more types of spirit plants and higher grades inside Senior Brother Lu’s cave.”
Guan Ivana followed behind Lu Xuan, looking at the many spirit plants that loomed inside the thick white mist and lamented.
“Senior Brother I love to raise these flowers and plants on weekdays, and as I do, the number of them has grown.”
Lu Xuan smiled.
“In addition, I have to thank Senior Sister Guan for securing quite a few Spirit Seeds for refining pills for me from the Dan Palace.”
“Senior Brother Lu is polite, being able to get those Spirit Seeds mainly depends on your Spirit Planting attainments, I’m not a big factor.”
Guan Ivana pursed her lips and smiled.
Arriving in the courtyard, Lu Xuan brought out spirit fruits and spirit syrup and greeted Guan Ivana.
After chatting for a few moments, he took out the Five Elements Fruit packed in a jade box from his storage bag and handed it to Guan Ivana.
“Please also ask Senior Sister Guan to inspect the Five Elements Fruit.”
“There is naturally no problem with Senior Brother Lu’s words.”
Guan Ivana nodded her head gently, although she was extremely trusting of Lu Xuan, the process that should be done still had to be completed, she took out the Spirit Fruit and scrutinized it carefully, and even used her Spiritual Energy to test it.
“The character is complete, and the quality is even at a good level.”
“It’s really not easy to fully cultivate a fourth-grade spirit plant, I didn’t expect that you, Senior Brother Lu, would be able to exceed your task and cultivate a good quality spirit fruit.”
Guan Ivana’s pair of wonderful eyes flashed with surprise.
It was extremely difficult to cultivate high-grade spirit plants, and if the level of the spirit plant was a little bit worse, it was likely to get an inferior quality spirit fruit, or even raise the spirit plant to death.
Therefore, Lu Xuan handing her this good quality Five Elements Fruit had already made her more than satisfied. The better the quality of the Spirit Fruit, it also had a considerable impact on the alchemy, slightly increasing the probability of the pills being formed as well as the quality of the pills.
“Master Lu’s attainments in spiritual plants are probably unrivaled within the sect, except for Master JieDan’s uncle.”
“Even if it’s the JieDan master uncle, it’s possible that he only understands and has experienced more, and when it comes to a certain kind of spiritual plant alone, he might not be able to compare to you, senior brother.”
Guan Ivana couldn’t help but lament.
“Elder sister is flattering, I’m still far from it.”
Lu Xuan humbled himself.
“The Five Elements Fruit is a Fourth Grade Spiritual Plant, according to the previous agreement, the reward for successful cultivation is one hundred Swordmarks, and for good quality, another fifty Swordmarks will be added, here are one hundred and fifty Swordmarks, please take a look at them, Senior Brother.”
Guan Ivana waved one hand and a small pile of sword seals floated in front of Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense swept through and nodded.
“The number is correct.”
He collected the hundred or so sword seals and expressed his gratitude to Guan Ivana.
Cultivating two or three fourth-grade spirit plants, the sword seals obtained would almost be enough to buy a new fourth-grade spirit seed in the Hall of Sinnoh.
Lu Xuan had a rough perception of how rich the Dan Palace was.
With such a fat sheep, it would be hard to say no to not gleaning a little more.
He was about to inquire, but Guan Ivana had already taken the initiative to speak.
“Is Master Lu willing to cultivate the Five Elements Fruit Spirit Plant again?”
Lu Xuan was busy nodding his head.
“It is an honor for Mister Lu to be able to do a small and insignificant thing for all the alchemy masters of the Dan Palace.”
“Good, I’ll go back and see if there are any ready-made Five Elements Fruit Spirit Seeds in the Hall of Si Nong, if not, after condensation, I’ll send over a few Spirit Seeds to you, Master Lu.”
Guan Ivana said softly.
After a pause in her tone, she didn’t know what came to her mind and looked at Lu Xuan again.
“Senior Brother Lu, has there been any consideration towards alchemy?”
“Alchemy?”
Lu Xuan’s mind moved.
“That’s right.”
“Cultivating spiritual plants and refining pills are somehow indistinguishable from each other, and the alchemists inside the Dan Palace more or less all have the experience of cultivating spiritual plants, they are just at a much lower level than you, Senior Brother.”
“Senior brother, you have such profound attainments in spiritual plants, and you can steadily obtain a large number of excellent quality spiritual medicines, if you don’t make good use of them, it would be a bit of a waste.”
Lu Xuan lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
Most of the Spirit Plants and Fruits he cultivated, excluding the varieties commissioned by others, were used for internal digestion, for his own use or to raise Spirit Beasts, while a small portion was used to exchange for Spirit Seeds and other related resources.
In the case of alchemy, he had rarely considered it before this, focusing solely on cultivating spirit plants.
However, after absorbing the Foundation Establishment Dan Dan Formula Experience Pack one after another, he would occasionally give birth to such thoughts.
“A scarce resource like the Foundation Establishment Dan must be refined, or else it’s all sorry for all those Dan Formula Experience Packs that he absorbed.”
“Whether it’s explicitly, or privately, refining the Foundation Establishment Dan is a matter of necessity.”
“If one joins the Dan Palace and becomes an alchemist, then the master will have a name, and perhaps the refining of the Foundation Establishment Dan can be put in the open.”
“In the future, if it is refined, it can also be offered to the Sect, one more big channel.”
Lu Xuan secretly thought.
