Chapter 556: Chapter 554 Borrowing Arrows with Straw Puppets_1

“Ah, nothing really beats the sect.”

Standing outside the sect, Lu Xuan looked at the Zodiac Star Battle Sword Formation that filled the sky over the entire sect, with star-like sword qi, and couldn’t help but sigh.

The seventh grade Sect Protection Array is as strong as a fortress, offering a great sense of security.

He entered the sword array with his identity plaque, passing through the Outer Sect and numerous prohibitions, and arrived outside the Inner Sect Cave House.

“I’ve only been away for less than a year, but it feels like an eternity.”

Lu Xuan gazed at the familiar mountain peak before his eyes, filled with deep emotions.

“Staying in the sect suits me better.”

He opened the Flowing Light Formation and the moment he reached mid-mountain, the massive Wind Falcon fell down as if a mountain was bearing down on him.

He felt a soft touch on his head. The chubby bird’s rotund belly bounced up and landed in front of Lu Xuan. It made a crisp chirping sound, full of deep longing and joy.

“How’s your time been with that green-feathered Falcon while I was away?”

Lu Xuan asked the fat bird.

“Chirpchirp!”

“I’ve long since left it.”

The fat bird lifted its head high in arrogance, conveying a disdainful thought to Lu Xuan.

“Oh? Lost interest so soon?”

The fat bird shook its head.

“So, you ran out of spirit fruit, didn’t you?”

Lu Xuan speculated in his heart, that the green-feathered Falcon’s companionship with the fat bird was mainly for the rare spirit fruit that fat bird would occasionally take out.

Both Wind Falcons, one driven by lust, the other by greed.

He had been gone for quite some time. The fat bird barely had enough for itself to eat, let alone feed the green-feathered Falcon.

Seeing the fat bird’s silent demeanor, Lu Xuan was pretty certain his guess was right.

“Well, if your wealth doesn’t match your weight, don’t blame others for being realistic.”

He patted the soft belly of the fat bird and took out a pile of spiritual juice and spirit fruit from the storage bag.

“If you want to play, you can go find it again. It’s your choice.”

After the fat bird, the Fire Separation Flood Dragon flew out from the small lake, carrying a scorching breath, and pounced on Lu Xuan.

The dirty rock-shell turtle followed closely behind, like a dark green grindstone rolling between the mountains, creating a great momentum.

Two Qiu Yu protuded their pointed heads from a rock wall, took a glance at Lu Xuan, and then disappeared.

A wisp of dark yellow poisonous smoke rose in the distance, Lu Xuan knew it was the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect coming out to welcome him.

Even the simple-minded Grass Puppet with spiritual intelligence, walking on two long grass robes, came to Lu Xuan from the spirit field.

“Here, I have a treasure for you.”

Lu Xuan took out the mature arrow vine from his storage bag and hung it on the thin arm of the Grass Puppet.

“From now on, use this arrow vine as your defensive treasure. If anyone who doesn’t know better tries to invade the spirit field and harm the spirit plants, all you need to do is activate it lightly, and you can fire a barrage of arrows.”

“After the spiritual power arrows on it are used up, you can use the spiritual energy of plants and trees to replenish and restore it.”

He gave detailed instructions to the Grass Puppet.

This fourth-grade arrow vine isn’t of much use in his hands, but giving it to the Grass Puppet as a defensive tool is a good idea. Its activation method is simple, its power quite strong, and the Grass Puppet can replenish it with plant and tree spiritual energy at any time, making them a perfect match.

The Grass Puppet nodded its massive grey-black head in a dazed manner, carefully took the arrow vine and examined it closely.

Next, with the Arrow vine slung over his shoulder, he continued to inspect the Spirit Field.

“Where else could I find such a diligent worker who doesn’t care about being rewarded with a Nascent Soul Grass Orb, but is solely focused on helping me inspect the Spirit Field.”

Lu Xuan looked at the strange figure of the Grass Puppet leaving and thought to himself.

Without taking the time to return to his room to rest, he came to the spacious Spirit Field, found the largest vacant plot, and transplanted the over 200 Water Glow Grass and three Arrow vines from the Gluttonous Insect Pouch into the Spirit Soil.

Although the Gluttonous Insect Pouch greatly slows down the loss of vitality of the Spirit Plants, if left for too long, there would still be some impact.

“Transplanting too many times is not good, it’s not conducive to the growth of Spirit Plants.”

“These Water Glow Grass and Arrow vines have already entered a rapid growth period, so they should be able to be harvested in the Cave House.”

Lu Xuan’s spiritual power surged from within him, strands of Spirit Rain fell and seeped into the Spirit Plants.

The Spiritual aura and Spirit Soil in the Inner Sect are worlds apart from the small courtyard in Black Star City; after being transplanted into the Wu Spirit Soil, he noticed the numerous Water Glow Grass appeared even clearer and more translucent, glowing with radiance, as if they had been washed by pure spirit dew.

“After a while, I will be able to harvest a big wave of Cultivation Level Light Clusters.”

Lu Xuan looked at the robustly growing Water Glow Grass in the Spirit Field and thought happily.

The numerous Spirit Plants in the cave house, after he left, only had the most basic nourishment of the spirit aura and spirit soil; none of the other conditions were met.

Lu Xuan did not stop, he carefully observed the state of all the Spirit Plants, applied various basic techniques of Spirit Plants, and took meticulous care of each and every Spirit Plant.

“Half a year has passed, and all the remaining Jade Dew Fruits have matured.”

He came to the area where the Jade Dew Fruits, entrusted to him by Dan Palace, were planted. Looking at the fully grown, translucent progress bar underneath the plants, he was overjoyed.

Before leaving the Sect, he had used Qingmu Origin Energy to hasten the maturation of five Jade Dew Fruit trees, leaving the remaining fifteen to grow naturally.

After this time apart, all the Jade Dew Fruits had fully matured.

Among the dense branches and leaves, carrying droplets of clear dew, were dozens of pale green Spirit Fruits, covered with a thin, silvery-white glow like a thin veil, giving off a fresh and natural scent.

Lu Xuan carefully picked all the Jade Dew Fruits.

“Sixty-two in total, among which several are of “Good Quality”, is an unexpected joy.”

He looked over the dozens of Jade Dew Fruits one by one, then looked at the plants, dozens of White Light Groups quietly appeared and flickered slightly among the branches and leaves covered with tiny spirit dews.

“A big harvest right after returning!”

Lu Xuan’s mouth curled up, his body turned into a streak of flowing light, and he touched the surface of the Light Cluster like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Sixty-two Light Clusters silently shattered at nearly the same time, turning into countless fine points of light, condensing into streams of light, and pouring into Lu Xuan’s body one after another.

One thought after another flashed through his mind.

[Harvesting one third-grade Jade Dew Fruit, get a fourth grade Dust Cleaning Pill.]

[Harvesting one third-grade Jade Dew Fruit, received Forth Grade Spirit Brew, Jade Wash Spirit Dew.]

[Harvesting…]

…

Spheres of flawless, rich spiritual liquid, clear and transparent elixirs, Spirit Dew formulas, Pill Formula Experience Packages, either appeared directly in his mind or floated in front of Lu Xuan.

“Sixty-two light clusters, harvested eighteen Fourth-grade Dust Cleaning Pills, these pills are considered rare and highly valuable in the current situation.”

“In addition, there are twenty-nine units of Jade Wash Spirit Dew, greatly increasing the quantity of Spirit Juice in the cave house.”

“Seven Jade Wash Spirit Dew Recipe Experience Packages, five Dust Removal Pill Pill Formula Experience Packages, and three Fourth-Grade Artefact, Jade Lock.”

“No need to hunt Demon Beasts, no need to fight deadly battles with others for treasure; these numerous items were obtained easily.”

A sense of happiness arose in Lu Xuan’s heart.
