Chapter 215: Successful Improvement, Firefly Grass



Chapter 215: Successful Improvement, Firefly Grass

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

After resolving the obsession in the heart of the Azure Profound Deer, Lu Xuan basically stayed in his own mountain peak, dedicating himself to cultivating spirit plants and nurturing spirit beasts.

During this period, nearby cultivators with similar cultivation levels invited him to explore secret realms, but he politely declined all invitations.

Gradually, Lu Xuan's fellow cultivators understood his temperament. They knew he only wanted to be a spiritual plant cultivator who avoided conflict and adventure. The invitations gradually diminished.

Yet, when Lu Xuan helped Ge Pu, a true disciple, solve the issue of his spirit beast's reproduction and resolved the obsession of the Azure Profound Deer in the secret realm, people began to appreciate him more.

After all, with Lu Xuan's growth trajectory, even if his cultivation level was average and he wasn't skilled in combat, he would still secure an important position in logistical departments like the Sword Pavilion and the Agricultural Hall.

Lu Xuan was pleased with how others viewed him. He wanted to solidify his own image.

During this time, the tasks he arranged in the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall yielded results. With the help of different outer sect disciples, he collected quite a number of second-grade demon beast pupils and second-grade exotic insect eggs.

Having obtained more than ten demon beast pupils, Lu Xuan took a trip to the Sword Gate Town, feeding them to the hungry Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood.

In the small courtyard, many Yin Realm spiritual plants were thriving. Only the fifth-grade Holy Infant Fruit, due to the lack of nourishment such as infant blood and flesh, was growing slowly and had not yet sprouted.

With the protection of the fourth-grade Illusion Mist Formation, the small courtyard in Sword Gate Town was as solid as gold, showing no signs of intrusion by any cultivators.

In the spiritual field, Lu Xuan placed a slender light-blue spiritual seed into the spiritual soil.

The slender spiritual seed was condensed from the mutated water-type Firefly Grass. After becoming a mutated spiritual seed, and undergoing two inductions and stimulations by Lu Xuan, he was now planting it to observe the inducing effects.

As the Earth Attraction Technique was executed, the spiritual soil underwent subtle changes, tightly wrapping around the spiritual seed.

Lu Xuan focused his mind on the spiritual seed at the shallow layer of the spiritual soil.

【Unknown Spirit Plant, Second-grade Spiritual Plant, can be named. Obtained through the improvement of the gradeless Firefly Grass, it contains abundant water-type spiritual power and can be used as the main ingredient for common elixirs that enhance spiritual power.】

"A second-grade spiritual plant!"

"I've finally succeeded in the improvement!"

With a flash of thought, Lu Xuan couldn't help but exclaim.

After three generations of inductive stimulation, he finally obtained an improved spiritual seed of the Firefly Grass.

This was under the condition that he could repeatedly screen spiritual seeds, saving a lot of useless efforts. Other cultivators trying to improve it would probably spend many times more time and energy.

"Jumping from a gradeless spiritual plant to a second-grade spiritual plant, the grade has improved significantly."

"However, I can understand that a second-grade spiritual plant is still within the Qi cultivation category and is not fundamentally different from a first-grade one."

Lu Xuan thought to himself that getting a mutated Firefly Grass of the second grade was naturally better. After all, a higher-grade spiritual plant meant more abundant rewards.

"A mutated Firefly Grass, containing rich water-type spiritual power, let's call it Firefly Grass."

With a thought, the information of the spiritual seed in the spiritual soil changed.

"I hope that after this second-grade Firefly Grass matures, it can bring enough cultivation rewards."

Lu Xuan executed the Spirit Rain Technique, and threads of spiritual energy permeated into the slender light-blue spiritual seed, which greedily absorbed it.

"Although it has been improved into a different second-grade spiritual plant, the Firefly Grass is still essentially connected to the gradeless Firefly Grass. The rewards should be similar."

"No, I have to quickly obtain the Light Sphere of the Firefly Grass to see if there are any cultivation rewards."

Suppressing the joy in his heart, Lu Xuan changed the remaining mutated spiritual seeds and planted a total of twenty-three successfully improved Firefly Grass spiritual seeds.

Among the twenty-three spiritual seeds, he selected three to be ripened using the Green Wood Source Qi, aiming to get Light Spheres in the shortest time.

Three strands of pale green spiritual energy entered the slender spiritual seeds, and the outer shells of the seeds cracked at a visible speed.

Half a day later, three Firefly Grass seedlings emerged from the spiritual soil, about an inch long. In the gentle breeze, they swayed, looking fragile.

On the slender leaves, there were fluorescent points, resembling stars. Faint blue spiritual light emerged, dreamlike.

"The ripening effect of the Green Wood Source Qi is unexpectedly powerful, after all, it comes from the life essence of the fifth-grade Azure Profound Deer."

"Normally, the maturation period for a second-grade spiritual plant is about a year. Now, with the Green Wood Source Qi, it can save more than half of the time."

"Unfortunately, the quantity is limited, and it's difficult to replenish after consumption."

Feeling the faint green spiritual energy sphere in his dantian, Lu Xuan thought somewhat regretfully.

After ripening three Firefly Grass seedlings, he continued to inspect the growth of various spiritual plants around the mountain peak.

Second-grade Flame Fruits and Ice Lotus Fruits were entering the mature stage one after another. One spiritual fruit appeared azure blue with a chilling atmosphere, while the other appeared fiery red, resembling clusters of blazing flames from a distance.

Due to the earlier planting time, the Ice Lotus Fruit was larger in size, hanging down from the branches.

Nine Sword Grass plants, planted not long ago, each grew a segment with the nourishment and cultivation of four different sword auras from the Four Seasons Sword Art. They looked like tiny sword blades, pointing straight to the sky.

Another Sword Grass, stimulated by the residual sword aura from the Crimson Flame Sword, was planted near the Fire Vein and nurtured by the scorching fire spiritual energy.

Among the three-grade spiritual plants, the Sword-Sheath Gourd and Jade Scale Fruits were beginning to mature.

On the green vines, five azure gourds were hanging. Due to the stimulation of inner and outer sword auras, the surface of the gourds was mottled, adding a sense of ancient simplicity.

From time to time, the sound of sword resonance could be heard inside the gourds, causing several gourds to resonate from a distance.

On the Jade Scale Fruit tree, eight fruits resembling jade stones were produced. The spiritual fruits were similar to pine nuts, but their appearance was several levels higher.

Wrapped in layers of jade folds, crystal clear and dazzlingly colorful.

The third-grade Enchanting Spirit Peaches were entering the flowering stage. Pink peach blossoms covered the branches, and under the backdrop of a faint red miasma, there was a subtle natural charm.

The third-grade Wind Thunder Sword Grass, improved successfully by the Sword Qi of the Gentle Thunder Sword and the Jade Sword Sheath, also grew saplings. Its progress was slower than the other nine, but its momentum was stronger. Occasionally, during Lu Xuan's cultivation, a deep black and subtle sword aura would shoot out.

Fourth-grade Earthfire Heart Lotus and Profound Insect Vine grew larger. The Earthfire Heart Lotus, bathed in the hot magma, was continuously washed and purified, becoming more pure and red, giving it a sense of proud standing in the magma river.

On the Profound Insect Vine, more insect chambers were forming, and occasionally, strange-looking insects crawled out and moved around.

Due to the symbiotic relationship with the Profound Insect Vine, the diverse species of insects coexisted peacefully. Occasionally, if there were signs of hostility, Lu Xuan would detect it in time and eliminate it in its infancy.

The simple yet fulfilling farming days passed quickly. With the frequent ripening of the Firefly Grass under the influence of the Green Wood Source Qi, the growth time was greatly shortened, and it began to enter the mature stage.
