âAlthough I often open the unknown rewards inside the light clusters, it is all free, opening blind boxes for free does not count as gambling.â
Lu Xuan self-evaluated.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAnd then thereâs the Fat Bird. At such a young age, all it thinks about all day is playing with a Wind Falcon. Itâs not serious. Depending on my stock of spirit fruits, Iâll suppress the bird with fat.â
âAs for the remaining spirit beasts, the Two-headed Juvenile is buried directly in the mountains and occasionally comes out to steal spirit soil. The Fire Separation Flood Dragon and the Green Horned Dragon Carp are a pair of domineering and oppressed combinations. Only the Rock-shell Turtle seems normal.â
Bearing it in mind, Lu Xuan scanned the lake with his spiritual senses. At a glance, he saw the Rock-shell Turtle, which was covered in a thick layer of gray-black rock, rolling in a mud pit outside the lake, appearing carefree.
âCompared to other spiritual beasts, being fond of fun is not a big problem.â
He sighed in his heart.
At that time, he returned to his usual farming life: every day cultivating spiritual plants, raising spirit beasts, refining pills in his spare time, and practicing various cultivation techniques. His life was simple and fulfilling.
During that time, the Primordial Essence Herb matured one after another. Lu Xuan was not in a hurry to pick it, but intended to save all the light clusters and unlock them all at once.
Once he discovered that ten Primordial Essence Herbs had matured, Lu Xuan went to the spirit fields and picked them one by one.
Ten Primordial Essence Herbs. Six of ordinary quality, three of good quality, and one of superior quality.
âI could probably get some extra rewards from the Dan Palace.â
Lu Xuanâs mouth curved upward, storing the ten Primordial Essence Herbs. Once all were mature, he would find Guan Wan from the Dan Palace to report.
âTen light clusters, letâs see what I can unlock.â
Looking at the ten white light clusters that quietly appeared in the spirit fields, Lu Xuan was rubbing his palms together, eager to start.
His body moved at an extreme speed, touching the ten light clusters in an instant like a dragonfly touching the water.
The light clusters exploded almost simultaneously, with countless tiny light points turning into light rivers that poured into Lu Xuanâs body one after another.
[Harvested a third-grade Primordial Essence Herb, obtained a third-grade magic item, Naling Grass Bead.]*4
[Harvested a third-grade Primordial Essence Herb, obtained a third-grade Foundation Establishment Pill.]*4
[Harvested a third-grade Primordial Essence Herb, obtained a Foundation Establishment Pill formula.]*2
As thoughts flashed through his mind, one reward after another either appeared in Lu Xuanâs hand or flowed into his sea of consciousness.
Four Naling Grass Beads, four Foundation Establishment Pills, and two experience packs of Foundation Establishment Pill formulas. The rewards were plentiful.
There is no need to mention the value of the Foundation Establishment Pills. They have always been worth a great deal in the outside world.
The Naling Grass Beads were also quite useful to Lu Xuan at this time. They could be used to feed the Grass Puppets and replenish the exhausted Qingmu Origin Energy.
As for the experience packs of Foundation Establishment Pill formulas, there was even less need to mention them. With the two new experience packs and the five previous ones, plus the one obtained some time ago, Lu Xuanâs skill in refining Foundation Establishment Pills reached the stage from proficient to minor proficiency.
With the experience of refining Foundation Establishment Pills hundreds or thousands of times suddenly appearing in his mind, he estimated that he was not inferior to most of the core alchemists in the Dan Palace.
âIs this what itâs like to be an alchemy prodigy?â
A smile appeared at the corner of Lu Xuanâs lips.
âAfter obtaining a few more formula experience packs from the remaining Primordial Essence Herbs, I should be able to reach a minor proficient stage entirely. The success rate of refining Foundation Establishment Pills will not be less than fifty percent.â
He thought to himself.
One day, while diligently cultivating various spirit plants in the spirit fields, an uninvited guest came to visit his cave dwelling.
When he saw the visitor, a hint of surprise flashed in Lu Xuanâs eyes.
âSenior Sister Sword Flawless, what brings you here?â
The visitor was a cold woman who wore many exquisite flying sword accessories. The hairpin was a thin white jade sword that was coiling like a swimming dragon. Earrings in the shape of two short swords dangled by her ears, emitting a sound of sword chime.
It was Sword Flawless from the Sword Hall, an Innate Sword Body. Lu Xuan had dealt with her when he was opening the new Blessed Land. When he went to the Sword Pool to get a sword, Sword Flawless was the leader.
âJunior Brother Lu, I happened to be passing by and knew this was your cave dwelling, so I thought I would come by for a look.â
Sword Wu Xiaâs voice was cold and clear, like a mountain spring.
âSenior Sister gracing my cave dwelling truly brightens up the place. Please come in.â
Lu Xuan led Sword Wu Xia into the cave dwelling.
Sword Wu Xiaâs eyes were as sharp as a sword, seemingly piercing the simple prohibition that was like the dense fog on the Spirit Field.
She lightly sipped the Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice that Lu Xuan handed her.
âThe Spiritual Plants in Junior Brotherâs cave dwelling are growing quite well.â
âEspecially those Sword Grasses. I canât see their true forms, but because of my unique constitution, I can probably sense their vibrant vitality, they are in excellent condition.â
Sword Wu Xia spoke softly.
âSenior Sister is giving me too much credit. Iâm just growing them for fun, to pass the time.â
Lu Xuan laughed and replied casually.
âJunior Brother doesnât have to be modest. If you didnât have the skill of cultivating Sword Grass, the Sword Hall wouldnât have entrusted you with the cultivation of those high-grade Sword Grasses.â
âWhat do you mean by that, Senior Sisterâ¦?â
Lu Xuan looked confused.
âJunior Brother, you should be aware that the Sword Pool might produce a Fifth Rank Sword Grass Spirit Seed in the next few months, right?â
âThe Golden Pellet Elder Uncles in the Hall donât lack Five-grade Sword Grass, so this Fifth Rank Sword Grass Spirit Seed is likely to fall into the hands of Foundation Establishment Realm disciples.â
âAmong them, we two have the highest probabilities.â
Sword Wu Xia spoke calmly.
âI have heard about it. However, Senior Sister, whether itâs your cultivation level or your talent in the Sword Dao, you are much stronger than I am. The only thing I might have to show is my skill in cultivating Sword Grass, and I might not be able to compete with you.â
Lu Xuan spoke very sincerely.
âI came here precisely because of this matter.â
âDue to certain reasons, I am not interested in obtaining that Fifth Rank Sword Grass Spirit Seed, and plan to let Junior Brother have it.â
âHowever, I have one condition.â
âPlease, go ahead, Senior Sister.â
Lu Xuan was a little surprised, trying not to let Sword Wu Xia perceive the joy inside his heart.
âPreviously, I had a fortuitous encounter and obtained a Fifth Rank Sword Grass Spirit Seed, but I havenât had the time and energy to cultivate it, nor am I fully confident in cultivating it. Its been lying idle in my hands for quite a few years now.â
âIâm giving you this Fifth Rank Sword Grass Spirit Seed, and in return, you have to cultivate the Five-grade Sword Grass Spirit Seed that I currently have for me.â
Sword Wu Xia paused for a moment, and spoke softly.
Lu Xuan stood rooted to the spot, his eyes revealing disbelief.
âSo, the condition to get the Fifth Rank Sword Grass Spirit Seed from the Sword Pool is that I need to cultivate a Five-grade Sword Grass for you, Senior Sister?â
His heart was filled with joy, and he almost couldnât control the expressions on his face.
âIs there such a good thing?â
âWhat, is it too hard for you, Junior Brother? Itâs true that cultivating a Five-grade Sword Grass is quite difficult,â
Upon seeing Lu Xuanâs reaction, Sword Wu Xia thought he was reluctant to accept because cultivating Five-grade Sword Grass was too laborious.
âNo!â
Lu Xuan quickly replied.
âI am willing to endure this hardship!â
