Chapter 130

"Senior Brother, you flatter me. It's just a stroke of luck."

"Besides, there were unexpected factors in cultivating the Sword Grass before. I'm not sure if I can successfully cultivate it again."

Lu Xuan modestly replied.

"If it's you, Junior Brother Lu, there shouldn't be any problem."

The elderly cultivator smiled. Lu Xuan had visited the Agricultural Hall twice, once purchasing second-grade Flowing Light Wood and Yin Locust with spirit stones, and another time exchanging a three-grade Sword-Nurturing gourd with sword seals. His impressive actions left a deep impression, indicating Lu Xuan's profound expertise in cultivating spirit plants.

"I also have to thank Senior Brother for helping keep an eye on the Sword Grass."

Lu Xuan expressed his gratitude.

After a few polite exchanges, Lu Xuan didn't linger. He left the Agricultural Hall and returned to his cave dwelling.

Inside, he took out two Sword Grass spirit seeds from his storage bag and placed them on the table.

"Getting two Sword Grass spirit seeds without spending a single sword seal, that Agricultural Hall master is quite generous."

He intended to nurture these two Sword Grass seeds meticulously, aiming to improve their quality as much as possible. This effort would enhance his standing in the eyes of the Agricultural Hall master. Once he became an inner disciple, he would have the qualification to cultivate a large quantity of Sword Grass.

He arrived at the spirit field and found an empty area, using the Earth Attraction Technique to separate and plant the two Sword Grass spirit seeds.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

[Sword Grass, second-grade spirit plant. When mature, it resembles a sharp blade, inherently a sword, usable directly or for crafting flying swords.]

After planting the Sword Grass spirit seeds, information flashed in his mind. Lu Xuan concentrated his mind on the spirit seeds, and a fine golden sword qi, as thin as a hair, emerged from his body, penetrating the shallow spirit soil and seeping into the Sword Grass spirit seeds.

Following suit, he infused the second seed with a subtle Geng Metal sword qi.

Planting the two Sword Grass spirit seeds added two high-grade spirit plants to the spirit field, demanding more time and spiritual power for cultivation.

However, Lu Xuan found joy in this. He patrolled the spirit field multiple times a day to ensure the healthy growth of numerous spirit plants.

He continued his task of nurturing Flood Dragons and Giant Pythons in the Thousand Dragon Lake. Two first-grade Giant Pythons advanced to second-grade, earning Lu Xuan twenty sword seals as a reward.

Among the remaining dragons, the second-grade Double-Headed Dragon, nourished daily with suitable demonic beast meat and frequently engaging in fights under the pretext of territorial disputes, was likely to advance to the third-grade stage.

Riding a spirit crane, Lu Xuan arrived at the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.

Under a massive light screen, various task information flashed. Many outer disciples stood below the screen, selecting suitable tasks.

"Lu Junior Brother, didn't expect to bump into you here."

As Lu Xuan was gathering information from the screen, a familiar, steady voice sounded nearby.

Following the guidance from the stream of light, Lu Xuan found a spirit crane outside the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.

"Go to the Northern Peak."

He instructed the spirit crane.

The majestic crane soared into the sky, carrying Lu Xuan, flapping its wings swiftly towards the location Lu Xuan had mentioned.

After a while, the spirit crane landed on a towering mountain peak.

Lu Xuan handed it a spirit stone and, following the task information, moved between the mountain peaks.

This mountain was much livelier than the one where Lu Xuan's cave was situated. Courtyards and pavilions dotted the surroundings, with sect cultivators often seen commanding spirit birds and flying artifacts in and out.

Winding through several paths, Lu Xuan arrived at the front of an elegant courtyard.

"Sister, are you home? I've come for the Flame Fruit task."

Lu Xuan gently knocked on the wooden door and called out softly into the courtyard.

"Coming, coming."

A clear voice responded. Soon, the wooden door opened, revealing a woman in apricot-colored attire, extending half of her round face, looking at Lu Xuan with a charming and adorable expression.

"Junior Brother, please come in."

"I'm surnamed Chen. You can address me as Sister Chen. May I know how I should address you?"

The woman with the round face led Lu Xuan inside while smiling.

"Junior Brother Lu will do."

"I wonder where the Flame Fruits are right now? I'd like to have a look first."

Inside the courtyard, numerous flowers and plants were grown, mostly spirit fruits. It was evident that Sister Chen had a great fondness for spirit fruits.

"No need to rush, Junior Brother Lu. Try some of the spirit fruits I've cultivated first."

The round-faced woman politely offered, bringing several plates of spirit fruits before Lu Xuan.

Seating himself quietly, Lu Xuan picked up a spirit fruit and tasted it.

Each spirit fruit had its unique flavor, some crisp, some sweet, satisfying Lu Xuan's taste buds completely.
