Chapter 405: Evil Trail
Chapter 405: Evil Trail
Feats that could increase spiritual awareness were extremely rare, and at the same time, the difficulty of cultivating them was much higher than the rest of the Art Technique Avatar Body Refining category.
Lu Xuan had obtained the first Divine Diffraction Scripture light mass for some time now, and in his spare moments, he would also try to cultivate it.
Unfortunately, the gongfu was just too profound and obscure, and the progress was slow, not even getting started.
Unexpectedly, after absorbing another gongfu experience pack, his progress in this gongfu could be described as a thousand miles a day, and his cultivation was smooth and natural, without any sense of stagnation.
“Four Impregnating Pines, three have matured, three white light clusters, opened out a fifth-grade treasure Impregnating God Post, two fifth-grade techniques, Divine Diffraction Scripture, it can be considered a bumper harvest.”
The corners of Lu Xuan’s mouth couldn’t help but float into a smile as he looked at the last of the Impregnating Spirit Pine plants that was about to fully mature, intense anticipation embedded in his eyes.
“It’s a pity that I only found four Yunlin Pine Spirit Seeds in that ancient medicinal garden in the Lang Yue Blessed Land at that time.”
“If I have the chance, I can go there again and see if I can still find some Spirit Seeds.”
Satisfied, Lu Xuan returned to the house, opened his palm, and a crack in the palm of his hand instantly extended and enlarged, from which a grayish eye pupil drilled out.
The tiny pupil of the eye presented Lu Xuan with an unobstructed view of the field of vision seen by the Void Nightmare Eyes from a hundred miles away.
In the small courtyard, the gloomy wind gusts, high in the sky there will occasionally be a gray and white eye pupil quietly surfaced, not mixed with any emotional color looked at the bottom of the Holy Infant Fruit strain, and immediately disappeared without a sound, seems to be just a phantom in general.
“No abnormality was found.”
Lu Xuan said softly in his heart.
After the Sacred Infant Fruit strains were getting closer to maturity, Lu Xuan decided to leave the Void Nightmare Eye in the small courtyard, monitoring the movements in the small courtyard from a distance through the grayish pupil in his hand in case that Evil Cultivator behind the curtain sneaked into the small courtyard.
Only after confirming that there was no abnormality did he feel slightly relieved.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed, and the many spirit plants in the spirit field had grown a lot under Lu Xuan’s careful care, respectively.
The second-grade Water Glow Grass began to enter the maturity stage, the slender azure leaves were densely packed together, the fluorescent light flickered, as if countless stars were dotting the night sky.
Lu Xuan looked over the plants one by one, and from the two hundred Water Glow Grasses, he identified forty-four plants that had fully matured.
This batch of Water Glow Grass had been planted in the Inner Sect from beginning to end for the sake of the rich spiritual qi, and hadn’t gone through the pain of transplantation, so the quality of all of them was extremely good, and there were a handful of good quality ones.
Lu Xuan picked the forty-four Water Glow Grass plants and looked at the forty-odd white light clusters that were faintly flickering in the azure blue leaves, his body transformed into a floating light and picked up all of the light clusters in the blink of an eye.
In his mind, a thought flashed by as quickly as if he was walking on a horse.
[Harvested one Second Grade Waterfly Grass, gained two years of cultivation].
[Harvesting a second-grade Water Glow Grass plant, obtaining a third-grade treasure Water Walking Bead].
[Harvesting a second-grade Water Fairy Grass plant, obtaining a second-grade Spirit Embracing Pill formula].
……
Due to the better quality, the rewards from the light cluster were also higher on average.
Of the forty-four Water Glow Grass plants, sixteen of the light clusters brought cultivation rewards, eleven for one year and five for two years, totaling twenty-one years of cultivation rewards.
One by one, the light clusters were picked up, and Lu Xuan’s spiritual energy within his body was like waves of the sea, constantly surging upwards, one wave higher than the next, the raging spiritual energy wildly impacting within his body.
He operated the Great Five Elements Technique, rapidly transforming the sea of spiritual energy into drops of pure spiritual liquid that fell into his dantian.
“Instantly growing more than twenty years of cultivation, even if it’s far from the twenty years of other cultivation geniuses due to the limitations of their natural talent, that’s still called rapid progress.” Lu Xuan sighed with emotion.
“There’s no way around it, having a light cluster means you can do whatever you want.”
“For those cultivation geniuses, superior enlightenment, and qualifications are their natural talents, for me, the light cluster is my talent now, it’s just that the two present themselves in different ways.”
He thought incomparably frankly.
In the remaining twenty or so light clusters, quite a few fairly good rewards opened up.
Third-grade talisman Water Dragon Talisman, third-grade auxiliary magic artifact Water Walking Bead, second-grade Impregnating Spirit Pill, Impregnating Spirit Pill formula, and so on.
Although it was a bit of a chicken rib for him who was already in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, he could at least exchange it for quite a few Spirit Stones.
The days of farming were monotonous and fulfilling, Lu Xuan cultivated the spirit fields and raised spirit beasts day in and day out, and in his spare time, he cultivated the Divine Diffraction Scripture, the Breaking Delusion Pupil Technique, contemplated the Fifth Grade Pure Yang True Flame Talisman, and every day, he also had to pass through the Nightmare Eye of the Void and observe the Sacred Infant Fruit strains in the small courtyard of Sword Gate Town.
However, as long as he thought of the unknown and lucrative rewards of light clusters that could be blossomed after the Spirit Plants matured, Lu Xuan felt immensely satisfied with this life and was as happy as can be.
“Hmm? There seems to be movement.”
On this day, Lu Xuan was carefully observing the grayish eye pupils in the cracks of his hand in the empty space between cultivating the Spirit Plants, when suddenly, his expression became grave and he let out a light eep.
High up in the sky, the Void Nightmare Eye noiselessly burrowed out of the crack, its eyeballs rotating as it locked its gaze on the Sacred Infant Fruit Strain.
Due to being located in the void and having a strong concealment ability and illusion level, the fifth grade level Void Nightmare Eye was very difficult to be detected on the trail, and this was Lu Xuan’s backbone for keeping it in the courtyard for surveillance.
Only to see the embryo-shaped spirit fruit gushing out channels of black gas, the black gas quickly diffused, and a dry and thin gray and black baby’s silhouette surged out from the spirit fruit.
The gray-black baby silhouette skulked around aimlessly in the small courtyard, and suddenly, staggered in place, a trace of resentment and viciousness flashed through its empty eye sockets.
Soon after, it continued to wander around in the small courtyard, taking a look here and there, only that compared to the instinctive behavior at the very beginning, it appeared to be much more subjective and deliberate, as if there was a consciousness lurking within the baby.
“Previously, I left a sub-strain spirit seed at the auction, I only wanted to casually lay it down, but I didn’t expect to catch such a huge fish, hehehe.”
The baby’s head turned somewhat mechanically, looking at everything in the courtyard, and let out a low, sinister laugh.
“A fourth grade Blood Spirit Palm Ginseng, it can be considered quite a rare spirit plant, just right for practicing that Blood Dao Technique.”
The baby’s tiny body said with satisfaction as it grabbed the blood red palms that were traveling around.
“There’s also that fourth grade Filthy Insect Grass, which can be used to refine special pills, and the unknown spirit soil in the courtyard, which actually contains the power of blood and flesh.”
“What’s more, those two Evil Spirit Plants that are likely to be of the fifth grade, if we wait for them to mature, we can completely use them for our own use and enhance the probability of breaking through to the JieDan realm.”
“Or if they are offered to other cultivators, they can also be exchanged for cultivation resources that will help break through to the JieDan.”
The more the infant thought about it, the more excited he felt, his tiny body trembling involuntarily.
Originally, he had only sensed that the child strain of the Holy Infant Fruit was about to mature, so through the mother plant’s ability to sense the location of the child strain and the special ability of each other, he had possessed the spirit fruit of the child strain to observe the situation, but unexpectedly, it had brought him a heavenly surprise.
“It’s time to close the net.”
The corner of the baby’s mouth pulled up and a strange smile emerged.
