On this trip, he only sold over a hundred strands of Spirit Firefly Grass from his hand, earning more than four hundred Spirit Stones.

There weren’t too many places to spend Spirit Stones. He bought some daily essentials like Spirit Fruits, Spirit Rice, and Demon Beast Meat, and a few second-hand Flying Swords for nurturing his Sword Nurturing Gourd. The rest were auxiliary materials for preparing early-stage cultivation potions for “Transforming Dragon in the Void”.

He strolled around Sword Gate Town only to find a few stalls selling Spiritual Seeds. All of them were of species he already knew. Upon inquiry, he found that the prices were much higher than those offered by the sect.

As for the Spirit Seeds that the sect didn’t have or was completely unaware of, he had no luck this time finding them.

“Perhaps the only downside to joining the sect is that you can’t easily find bargains as you can in Linyang Market,” he thought.

“After all, the sect disciples have seen more and are generally more knowledgeable. They might be familiar with Spirit Seeds that ordinary cultivators don’t recognize.”

“Of course, the chances are smaller, but if it happens, it means good things, like that fourth-grade Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree.”

After sighing, Lu Xuan returned to his room.

After learning that Spirit Plants can be improved, he planned to try to improve the Spirit Firefly Grass himself.

While the Spirit Firefly Grass is just a Non-grade Spirit Plant, he has kept the habit of planting it because it can enhance his cultivation level.

As his cultivation level became deeper and deeper, the other rewards that the Spirit Firefly Grass could bring became less and less attractive. Lu Xuan planned to experiment and see if he could improve the breed.

He still had 300 Spirit Firefly Grass Seeds from the last cultivation. He took out 100 of them and split them evenly into two parts.

These too seeds were used for the seed phase. By changing the storage conditions of the seeds, the internal structure of the seeds can be induced to change, thus selectively breeding positive variations of Spirit Firefly Grass.

The remaining 200 strands will be stimulated after planting and in the growth phase. They will be kept in a special environment for a long period to see if a successfully mutated Spirit Firefly Grass can be achieved.

Because the last batch of Spirit Firefly Grass he planted was not yet fully mature, so the part of the Spirit Seeds to be experimented must wait until the Spirit Firefly Grass is all fully grown.

Among the one hundred Spirit Seeds, fifty were put into the Yin Cold Spring water in his cave, and the other fifty were put into the White Jade Box and placed in the Pill Furnace, being gently roasted over a weak flame.

Changing the Five Elements environment is the most common method to induce the variation of Spirit Seeds.

Other methods, like providing a special spiritual energy environment, Spirit Soil, and various complex cultivation conditions, are beyond Lu Xuan’s ability at the moment.

Although the aura in this cave of the Sky Sword Sect is pure and rich, it has no special properties. As for the Spirit Soil, it is common and suitable for the growth of most Spirit Plants, especially the low-grade ones.

After starting to induce the Spirit Firefly Grass Seeds, Lu Xuan no longer paid them any mind.

In the next few days, he remained busy.

Due to his excellent results in examination and reasonable prices, his reputation quickly spread among the cultivators of other waters in Thousand Dragon Lake, who had all contacted Lu Xuan through Huang Yuan, asking him to take blood samples from their Jiaolong Pythons.

Being able to obtain Water Dragon Essence Blood and earn Spirit Stones, Lu Xuan was naturally more than happy to help.

“Finally, it’s over. I never thought there would be so many Jiaolong Pythons and other demon beasts in Thousand Dragon Lake.”

Lu Xuan shook his slightly sore arm, half in surprise and half in sentiment, and said to Huang Yuan.

Over the last few days, the number of Jiaolong Pythons and others that he had taken blood from, even if not a thousand, must not be far off.

Even if they were all of the first and second grades, such a large number is a testament to the deep foundation of the Sky Sword Sect.

“You’ve worked hard these past few days, Junior Brother Lu. You’ve practically checked the Jiaolong Pythons of the entire Thousand Dragon Lake, and all the brothers will remember your kindness,” Huang Yuan said with a smile. He had been responsible for introducing and guiding, and although he didn’t receive any reward, he solved the problem of Hidden Scaled Fish in Thousand Dragon Lake and left a good impression on many of his peers.

“Thank you, Brother Huang, for your help and introductions. Why not come to my courtyard for a few drinks? I have some Spiritual Wine and Spirit Fruits at home,” Lu Xuan invited Huang Yuan.

Huang Yuan was more than happy to deepen his relationship with Lu Xuan and promptly agreed.

The two of them enjoyed their drinks and chatted for a long time.

When Huang Yuan left, Lu Xuan closed the courtyard door, activated the formation, and staggered back to his room with a slight drink in him.

“I was wondering why walking felt a bit heavy. So it was the weight of the Spirit Stones…”

A hill-like Spirit Stone appeared on the ground, its spiritual light flowing brilliantly, dazzling to the eye.

The issue with the Hidden Scaled Fish in Thousand Dragons Lake this time yielded great rewards due to the information gap.

There were over two thousand Spirit Stones alone, making Lu Xuan’s wealth unprecedentedly vast, totaling to over four thousand Spirit Stones in his possession.

In addition, there were nearly a thousand vials of essence blood brought by the Jiaolong Python. In the end, he had no choice but to leave some large capacity containers in his storage bag, used to store the essence blood of the same species of Jiaolong Python.

This way, he could avoid the embarrassing situation of nowhere to place the blood after drawing it.

“With so much essence blood, if there are enough materials, one could even cultivate in a medicinal elixir hot spring,”

Lu Xuan thought luxuriously.

With sudden prosperity, his mindset naturally changed, and now his mind was filled with thoughts of buying.

As soon as he thought of it, he did it. The next day, after cultivating his Spirit Field and Spirit Plants, he arrived at the premises of the Agricultural Department Hall.

“Junior Brother Lu, long time no see!”

The old Farmer Monk who had interacted with Lu Xuan several times greeted him warmly, offering the Spirit tea and Spirit Fruit immediately. His speech and manners contained some flattery.

No wonder he acted this way. While Lu Xuan’s cultivation level was ordinary in his eyes, he saw Lu Xuan with boundless prospects.

He had a terrifying talent in the realm of spiritual plant cultivation and was already trying to plant several third-grade spiritual plants at the Qi Training Realm.

Although cultivating spiritual plants was a minor practice, once it reached its peak, it was no different from other practices like alchemy and tool refining.

Given Lu Xuan’s talent in the path of spiritual plants, there was a possibility that he might become his superior many years from now.

Moreover, Lu Xuan had already caught the eye of the Sishen Hall Master, who personally gifted him two Sword Grass Spirit Seeds, indicating a trend of cultivating him into the core circle of the Spirit Plant Masters of the Sky Sword Sect.

“Brother, you don’t have to be so polite.”

Lu Xuan laughed.

“I should be, I should be. By the way, Junior Brother Lu, how are the Sword Grass Spirit Seeds gifted by the Hall Master growing? The growth should be smooth, right?”

“Everything is normal. The growth state might be even better than the original Sword Grass.”

Lu Xuan modestly stated after comparing the differences between the Sword Grasses before and after.

“The Hall Master has been constantly worrying about those two Sword Grasses recently!” The old Farmer Monk rubbed his hands, smiling until wrinkles piled up on his face.

“Brother, I mainly came here to exchange for a few Spirit Plants this time. It would be best if they could be exchanged with Spirit Stones. As for the species, Spirit Fruits are preferred and the grade should not be lower than second-grade.”

Lu Xuan got straight to the point.

He now had the idea of scale cultivation of second-grade spiritual plants, among which he favored Spirit Fruit types.

Firstly, Spirit Fruit types usually yield a certain amount of Spirit Fruits, unlike most other Spirit Plants that are dominated by a single fruit or a single plant. This way, they could produce more light clusters.

Secondly, the cultivated Spirit Fruits could better help him hold onto the thigh of the Mystical Sky White Luan as well as its companions.

As for the grade, it goes without saying. For him, first-grade Spirit Plants are basically like chicken ribs.

“Spirit Stones can be exchanged for spiritual seeds, not lower than second-grade, and preferably fruiting Spirit Plants…”

The old Farmer Monk thought for a moment, flipping through a Jade Book.

“There aren’t many spirit seeds that can be exchanged for spirit stones. I remember there is a third-grade Spirit Fruit, although its cultivation conditions seem to be somewhat special.”

“It’s that one, the third-grade Enchanted Immortal Peach.”

The monk flipped to a page in the Jade Book and said to Lu Xuan.

A delicate peach tree appeared in front of Lu Xuan.

The peach leaves were pink, the trunk was white, and there was a faint red mist around the tree. Over ten scarlet peaches could be faintly seen, extremely enchanting..
