Chapter 557 – Fall of the JieDan
Chapter 557 – Fall of the JieDan
“According to previous experiences, if one breaks through to the JieDan realm, the cultivation reward of the second-grade Water Fluorescent Grass Light Cluster will be greatly reduced, contradicting the massive amount of cultivation needed to advance to a new realm.”
“Now with this successfully mutagenized third-grade Ice Glow Grass, when one breaks through to the JieDan realm, the light group cultivation reward should not be as pathetically low as the second-grade.”
Lu Xuan mused in his mind.
“The next thing to do is to cultivate the mutagenized Spirit Seed to maturity and experiment with how much cultivation rewards the white light mass can bring.”
“In addition, it’s to try to find a way to get as many Icefly Grass Spirit Seeds as possible.”
He looked at the spirit seed in his hand and lamented.
The new Spirit Seed had changed slightly from before.
On the surface of the azure slender spirit seed, there were many snowflake-like light blue patterns, and holding it in his hand, he could feel an icy cold breath seeping into his skin.
He carefully put away the Ice Glow Grass Spirit Seed and continued to look at the remaining mutated Spirit Seeds.
In the end, a total of five Ice Glow Grass Spirit Seeds were found, and the rest of the Spirit Seeds had either been reduced to waste seeds during the mutation process, or had been used by Lu Xuan to mutate them again, to see if he could get more Ice Glow Grass Spirit Seeds.
Although it was a slim hope, Lu Xuan was still willing to give it a try in order to obtain more improved spirit seeds.
On this day, he came to the Sword Hall, intending to submit the Fourth Grade Sword Peacock that he had planted out earlier to the Sword Hall.
As a disciple of the Sword Hall, he could apply to the Sword Hall for the right to own this Sword Peacock, however, Lu Xuan already had the Fifth Grade Split Light Transportation Sword Grass, and didn’t want to waste the opportunity on a Fourth Grade Sword Peacock, so he might as well use it to exchange it for some Sword Marks.
The number of disciples entering and exiting the Sword Hall was much less than usual, and Lu Xuan didn’t see the figure of his old acquaintance, Shen Ye, so he found himself a senior member of the Sword Hall that he knew and handed the Sword Peacock over to him.
At the satisfied look on that senior brother’s face, he received five hundred Sword Seals as a reward for cultivating the Sword Peacock.
When he was about to leave the Sword Hall, his spiritual sense was keenly aware of the discussion of two Sword Hall disciples not far away.
“Senior Brother Zhou is also too miserable, having suffered such a serious injury, I don’t know when he will recover.”
“Yeah, I thought that getting a fifth-grade treasure was a heavenly chance, but I didn’t realize that there was an accident and I was besieged by demons.”
“In that case, I don’t know if getting that called a fifth-grade magic weapon is a blessing or a curse.”
Master Zhou, Fifth Grade Magical Weapon ……
Lu Xuan immediately associated it with Zhou Qi of Black Star City.
“Two senior brothers, please stay, I just happened to overhear the two discussing, I wonder if the person in the senior brother’s mouth is Sword Hall’s Senior Brother Zhou Qi Zhou?”
Lu Xuan called out to the two and asked.
“That’s right, it is precisely that Senior Brother Zhou.”
A young cultivator nodded and said.
“Is Senior Brother Zhou in some kind of danger? It seems to be somewhat serious.”
“Senior Brother Zhou was sent back to the clan a few days ago by Uncle JieDan, and his situation is very bleak.”
“According to Senior Uncle, he ran into a few evil demons in the Black Demon Abyss, specializing in Divine Soul Attack Evil Techniques, which are impossible to defend against, and as a result, Senior Brother Zhou’s Divine Soul suffered a heavy blow, and he fell into a coma for most of the time, and occasionally awakened with a frantic look of loss of sanity.”
“Treasures for healing the divine soul are already rare, not to mention the kind of situation that senior brother was in, and only after trying several methods did he recover a little.”
“The clan has a senior uncle who specializes in this type of healing technique who has seen that it may take decades to fully wake up, and during that time there is still a small risk of alienation.”
The two said to Lu Xuan, with great sympathy for Zhou Qi between their words.
Spending decades to heal divine soul trauma, the path of cultivation had basically come to an end, and even a fifth-grade magic weapon would not be able to make up for the losses involved.
“The cost is indeed a little too great.”
Lu Xuan echoed.
Although he had previously suspected Zhou Qi and used the Void Nightmare Eye to monitor him for a period of time, he eventually confirmed that there was no abnormality, coupled with the fact that Zhou Qi was still quite courteous to him in the Black Star City, so there was some regret in his heart upon hearing this news.
“Demons that specialize in the divine soul, it’s a good thing that I have a fifth-grade Clear May Feather Cloth to protect my body, if I were to run into one, I would not be afraid at all, and I could even counterattack with the Stabbing God Cone, which is also of the same fifth-grade.” “Well, the means are still abundant.”
He returned to his cave and thought about how he should react when he stumbled upon this situation.
“Harm, what’s the point of thinking so much, there can’t be a possibility of encountering that type of demon in the sect, right?”
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but laugh, anyway, he would just stay in the sect and live until the end of time.
The news of Zhou Qi’s serious injury was quickly put behind him, his entire mind was focused on the many spirit plants in the spirit field, and he had no time to care about anything else.
Only when he went out did he hear various news from Liu Su and the others.
On this day, he was inspecting the many spirit plants in the spirit field.
“Dang!”
Suddenly, a mellifluous and deep bell sounded in the sect, the sound spreading to all the mountain peaks and caves.
There were nine bells in a row, and the sound had a strong feeling of sadness in it.
Lu Xuan stood in the Spirit Field Rouge, flabbergasted in place, ringing out the clan rules he had learned when he entered the clan.
These nine bells meant that an important person in the sect had fallen.
As expected, an old voice rang in his ears.
“Our sect’s Qingxu Realist, who formed the dan for more than two hundred years, fell at the hands of a demon in the Black Demon Abyss, all disciples observe a moment of silence.”
“A real person who formed the dan has fallen?”
Lu Xuan was horrified in his heart.
He stood in place and mourned in silence for a moment, and his mind stayed clear for a long time before he regained clarity.
He had had a meeting with this fallen True Lord of Qingxu, and the clan’s True Legend, Ge Park, had once introduced Lu Xuan to him in the past, and the True Lord, due to the fact that he was trying to comprehend a Divine Principle Technique, had asked him to act on his behalf.
Seeing that he was good at cultivating spiritual plants and possessed that crippled secret realm, he asked him to cultivate the fifth-grade spiritual plant Clear Glazed Tea on his behalf.
Unexpectedly, actually fell in the Black Demon Abyss so quietly.
As far as he knew, Qing Xu Zhen Zhen had entered the JieDan realm for many years, with a mid-JieDan cultivation, skilled in the Dao of Dan and Fu, and powerful.
“To be able to make a Mid JieDan Real Person fall, the Extraterrestrial Demon that invaded this realm is actually terrifying to such an extent?”
Lu Xuan’s mind was filled with thoughts.
The Qingxu Realist had asked him to cultivate the fifth grade of Pure Glazed Tea on his behalf, and after his fall, if there was no next of kin, or pro-transmitter to come over and ask for it from Lu Xuan, then it would most likely be cheaper for Lu Xuan to do so.
However, he did not have the slightest bit of joy in his heart, and his expression was incomparably solemn.
He originally thought that after having the blessing of the clan, as well as many fifth-grade treasures, his own safety had been greatly guaranteed, but now it seems that it is not so stable.
Extraterrestrial demons can easily take out a JieDan real person, then a little more powerful, a little more in number, is it possible to hit the sect and take out the YuanYing real monarch?
If he encountered those powerful demons, how should he deal with them?
With the treasures in his hands, he might have the strength equivalent to a pre-Node Dan cultivator, but all mid-Node Dan real people are dead.
He instantly didn’t have much backbone.
“Planting a field doesn’t even let people live in peace.”
Lu Xuan sighed softly.
“Now, we can only see how long the cultivation world as well as the sects can hold out.”
“As for myself, let’s not think about it so much for now, there’s a taller one to hold up the sky when it collapses, planting the fields at ease and harvesting the light clusters with high grade rewards is the right way.”
