Chapter 171 – Third Grade Poisonous Shuttlewood
Chapter 171 – Third Grade Poisonous Shuttlewood
A moment later, the gentle female cultivator closed the report with a satisfied look on her face.
“It’s been a hard time for Master Nephew Lu, not only did he take care of those variant Burning Yuan Woods extremely well, but he also used all sorts of small tests to differentiate between the different kinds of Burning Yuan Woods at the growth stage.”
“According to Senior Nephew’s records above, those Burning Yuan Woods that have improved well with grade promotion or benign changes have already been clearly differentiated from other plants.”
“As for those variants of Burning Yuan Wood that grow even more slowly, it can be concluded that the improvement has failed and their value is not as good as ordinary Burning Yuan Wood, so they can directly give up and still be able to save some cultivation effort.”
“Indeed, senior uncle is wise to recognize the essence.”
The gentle female cultivator sniffed, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, her eyes glowing.
“Senior nephew Lu took care of the early stages very well, and presented me with that simple and clear record report, let’s put it this way, what type of reward do you want?”
“Of course it’s the Spirit Seed Improvement Method.”
Lu Xuan secretly said inwardly, since he was able to improve the Spirit Seed, the method of condensing the Spirit Seed was naturally included.
However, he was only imagining things, taking up the mission for just less than half a month, what he had done was limited, only tending and cultivating those Burning Yuan Woods, coupled with some comparative experiments, he was completely unqualified to make such a request to the Warmth Female Cultivator.
“Senior Uncle He, this person of mine is usually only interested in spiritual plants, so I hope that Senior Uncle will be able to grant me one or two spiritual seeds.”
“There’s no requirement for the grade of the spirit seed, if it’s a rare type of spirit seed, that would be the best.”
Lu Xuan asked tentatively, low grade Spirit Seeds could be purchased with Spirit Stones or exchanged for Sword Seals in the Sinanon Hall, he hoped to obtain Spirit Plant varieties that were not available in the Sinanon Hall from the warm female cultivator.
“Spirit species? Rare types?”
The Wen Wan female cultivator bowed her head in contemplation and took out a strange spirit seed from her storage bag.
The spirit seed was about half a foot long, black in color, with a hidden demonic purple light flickering inside, thick in the middle and thin at the ends, like a pike.
“This is a Spirit Seed that I stumbled upon in the depths of the Red Miasma Valley, the exact species is unknown, only judging from the vitality within the Spirit Seed that it’s an intensely toxic Spirit Plant.”
“I have no experience in cultivating similar spirit plants, so I have kept it in my storage bag, and today I will give it to you, Master Nephew Lu, in the hope that you can cultivate it properly.”
The gentle female cultivator smiled as she handed over the ebony pike-shaped spirit plant to Lu Xuan.
According to the past, after normally cultivating and caring for the Burning Yuan Wood for a period of time, she would usually reward the Qi Practicing Disciple with some Spirit Stones, or Spirit Fruits that she had cultivated herself, and it would be completely impossible to reward him or her with a treasured Spirit Seed.
However, Lu Xuan’s performance exceeded her expectations, in just a short period of time, she was able to differentiate between the different states of the variant Burning Yuan Woods, and the form of record of the comparative content was also an eye-opener for her, and it was clear in her mind that she was able to save a great deal of time and energy in improving the varieties of the spiritual plants with this.
“Many thanks to Uncle He.”
Lu Xuan said in surprise as he received the ebony shuttle-shaped spirit seed with both hands.
A spirit seed that a Foundation Establishment Cultivator had been keeping would naturally not be any worse.
As for rare? As long as one planted it, the spirit plant was clear and bare.
He bid farewell to the Wen Wan female cultivator and left, and in the future, he still needed to come over and cultivate for a period of time, waiting until the third-grade Burning Yuan Wood or the heterogeneous Burning Yuan Wood was completely differentiated, and only then would he be considered to have accomplished the task that the Wen Wan female cultivator had explained to him.
He called a spirit crane and let it carry him back to his cave.
Feeding the spirit crane a spirit fruit, the spirit crane chirped crisply, reluctantly bidding him farewell.
Lu Xuan entered the courtyard, and the rounded body of the Wind Falcon’s young bird suddenly pressed over.
“Less than a day’s work, you’ve gained eight taels of weight, how on earth did you do it?”
Lu Xuan, who had already practiced Qi Perfection, was keenly aware of the change in the Wind Falcon Young Bird’s weight as soon as it came up, and with a hand, he grabbed its light green-colored feathered wings, presenting its rounded belly in front of him. “Didn’t find anything strange ah ……”
Lu Xuan touched here and pinched there, not noticing any abnormalities in the Wind Falcon’s lateral growth.
He loosened his light green feathered wings, but unexpectedly, the Wind Falcon gently flapped and flew around Lu Xuan in an inverted stance, revealing its round belly all the way in front of him, signaling him to touch it a few more times.
“Roll.”
Lu Xuan slightly built up his strength and sent this round ball flying out with a punch.
“Ow~”
The Treading Cloud Lynx lay on its back not far away, its turquoise eye pupils gazing indifferently at this side, its low roar carrying a few pinches of intent.
Lu Xuan walked over, pulled the two tufts of dull hair on the tips of its ears, and came into the Spirit Field.
He found a blank area in the spiritual field, and with a movement of his spiritual power, the spiritual soil in the area changed slightly, and a slender crack quietly emerged.
The crack just happened to contain the ebony shuttle-shaped spirit seed, and Lu Xuan then controlled the spirit soil so that it wrapped around the spirit seed just right.
As his mind condensed on the spirit seed, a thought flashed through his mind.
[Poisonous Shuttlewood, Third Grade Spiritual Plant, every part of the plant contains a strong toxicity that can pose a great threat to Foundation Establishment Cultivators. The toxicity is strongest in the fruit, followed by the leaves, stamens, and branches].
[After maturity, the fruit can be used to assist in the cultivation of certain poisonous techniques, or to refine certain poisonous pills, and to raise poisonous demonic beasts and insects, while the rest of the spiritual plant can be used to refine poisonous substances.]
The Poisonous Shuttlewood will automatically absorb the turbid spiritual energy around it, purifying the spiritual environment. Various types of poisons can promote the growth of the spiritual plant, and the stronger the toxicity, the higher the quality of the final spiritual fruit.
[I’m so poisonous, I’m so poisonous, I’m so poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous poisonous.]
……
Lu Xuan was silent in response to the last sentence of the Spirit Plant’s instant status.
“A third-grade spirit plant that is still predominantly poisonous is indeed quite rare.”
“Cultivating the Burning Yuan Wood for just that period of time, to be able to obtain a Third Grade Poisonous Shuttlewood Spirit Seed as a reward is considered an unexpected blessing.”
Satisfied in his heart, Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment and executed the Earth Drawing Technique, digging out the ebony pike-shaped spirit seed inside again.
The aura within the clan was pure and rich, not to mention any evil aura, even turbid spiritual energy was extremely rare and not suitable for the growth of the Poisonous Shuttlewood.
He planned to plant it in the small courtyard of Sword Gate Town, although the spiritual qi within Sword Gate Town was better than in Lin Yang Fang City, it was still worlds apart from the sect.
Adding the fact that there were Hundred Pupil Guile Wood, Ghost Face Stone Mushroom and other such netherworld plants in the courtyard, it was instead more suitable for Poisonous Pike Wood’s growth.
Lu Xuan collected the Spirit Seeds and wandered around the Spirit Fields, inspecting the growth status of each and every Spirit Plant, and based on their subtle needs, he kept on casting various spells to create the conditions that would satisfy their every request.
In the area where the Spirit Fluorescent Grass was located, another large batch of Spirit Fluorescent Grasses had entered the full maturity stage, Lu Xuan inspected them one by one, and finally picked forty-one mature Spirit Fluorescent Grasses.
Among them, eleven were of good quality, twenty-four were of superior quality, and the remaining six were of perfect quality.
“It’s still the probability of perfect appearing in no-grade Spirit Plants that’s high ah, the planting wasn’t as attentive as it was in the Lin Yang Workshop, it was just a change to a better aura environment, and the probability of perfect Spirit Plants appearing has increased a bit instead.”
“If only the third and fourth grade spirit plants in the spirit field were like this.”
Lu Xuan sighed while gently touching the white light clusters scattered everywhere.
