Chapter 253: Hidden Element Grass and Five-Element Fruits
"Junior Brother Lu, your place is really hard to find. It takes almost half the sect to cross."
Lu Xuan activated the flowing light formation, welcoming Danshi Guanwan into the mountain peak.
Guanwan observed her surroundings quietly and said to Lu Xuan, "It's a bit remote."
Lu Xuan nodded in agreement, "When I chose this mountain peak, besides its natural characteristics, I valued its secluded location at first glance."
"I chose it for the tranquility."
He smiled and guided the woman in yellow up the mountain.
"Junior Brother Lu, the spiritual plants you cultivate here are quite impressive."
Guanwan sighed.
Lu Xuan knew she was at the mid Foundation Establishment level, with powerful spiritual awareness. Even if he used mist to conceal, she could still detect the hidden spiritual plants.
As the visitor was a significant benefactor, he deliberately revealed all the spiritual plants he cultivated, except for the Fourth-Rank Earth Fire Heart Lotus and the Sixth-Rank Phoenix Wood, which were in the Earth Fire main vein.
As Guanwan ascended, her astonishment grew.
Lu Xuan's expertise in spiritual plants surpassed her expectations.
All the plants were vibrant and lush along the way.
As an alchemist, she had a deep understanding of spiritual plants and could tell that all these plants were of excellent quality.
Understanding a few or a small number of high-quality plants could be expected, but having every single one of them of such high quality was quite impressive.
It indicated that Lu Xuan had extraordinary talent in the field of spiritual plants compared to other plant cultivators.
"Is this a special spiritual soil? It's so extensive!"
Halfway up the mountain, passing by two deep yellow spiritual fields, Guanwan keenly noticed the anomaly of the Earth Element Spiritual Soil.
"Yes, not long ago, when I entered the blessed land, I accidentally found a nest of Double-Headed Armadillo Demonic Beasts. Since they were not present, I collected some."
Lu Xuan said sincerely.
"What kind of plant is this? It looks somewhat similar to the Illuminating Firefly Grass but also has some differences."
Guanwan pointed at the Water Fire Grass in the Earth Element Spiritual Soil and asked Lu Xuan.
"This is Water Fire Grass, derived from the Illuminating Firefly Grass. I was bored and conducted numerous experiments, finally creating this new variant of Water Fire Grass. In addition to retaining its original effects, it also contains a certain amount of ice-element spiritual power."
"Junior Brother Lu is truly a genius, able to improve a no-grade Illuminating Firefly Grass into a Second-Rank spiritual plant."
The woman in yellow praised.
As soon as they entered the elegant courtyard, a tentacle-like gray vine greeted them, crawling into Lu Xuan's sleeve.
"Is this... a spiritual plant?"
Guanwan asked uncertainly.
"Indeed, it is a spiritual plant, but its variety is quite unique. It's similar to spiritual beasts, intelligent, omnivorous, feeding on the blood and flesh of demonic beasts as well as the flowers, fruits, branches, and leaves of spiritual plants."
"This vine spiritual plant is quite peculiar."
Guanwan made a brief comment and entered the courtyard directly.
Everything she saw and heard increased her confidence in Lu Xuan. She firmly believed that he could cultivate the spiritual seeds she was about to entrust to him.
"Sister Guan, these Flame Fruits and Ice Lotus Fruits were cultivated by me. It's better to experience them together."
Lu Xuan served spiritual fruits and tea, entertaining the woman in yellow.
"Not bad, all of them are excellent qualities that are rarely seen. Junior Brother Lu is thoughtful."
According to Lu Xuan's suggestion, Guanwan swallowed a piece of Ice Lotus Fruit and Flame Fruit separately. Under the stimulation of both ice and fire, her eyes sparkled, and her mood became pleasant.
After a few casual conversations, she explained her purpose to Lu Xuan.
"Junior Brother Lu, last time at the Transmission Hall, I mentioned to you about including you in the cooperation with the Alchemy Hall as a spiritual plant cultivator. Today, I've come for that reason."
"This time, I brought twenty-five spiritual seeds from the Agricultural Hall, including twenty-three Third-Rank Hidden Element Grass seeds and five Fourth-Rank Five-Element Fruit seeds."
"Do you have any objections, Junior Brother? Can you cultivate these spiritual seeds completely?"
"Sister, I have no problem."
Lu Xuan confidently replied.
Twenty-three Third-Rank spiritual seeds, five Fourth-Rank spiritual seeds... truly the wealthiest institution within the sect, making generous moves.
Since he started cultivating spiritual plants, he had not planted twenty of Third-Rank spiritual seeds in total.
"As per our previous agreement, besides providing you with the seeds, we will also pay you a guaranteed remuneration."
"To cultivate the Third-Rank Hidden Element Grass, ten Sword Commands per plant, and for the Fourth-Rank Five-Element Fruit, thirty Sword Commands per plant. A total of three hundred and fifty Sword Commands."
"After the spiritual plants mature, depending on their survival rate and the quality of the spiritual herbs, you will be rewarded accordingly. What do you think, Junior Brother?"
"That's fine."
Lu Xuan quickly agreed.
He had no objections. Being able to receive so many Third and Fourth-Rank spiritual seeds for free was already a great fortune. Moreover, he would also receive a guaranteed three hundred and fifty Sword Commands.
He could easily buy a few more Fourth-Rank spiritual seeds with this.
With a cheerful smile, he quickly established a simple agreement with Guanwan and received twenty-five spiritual seeds from her.
The Hidden Element Grass seeds were slender and grayish-brown on the surface, appearing quite ordinary and easy to overlook even when thrown on the ground.
However, sweeping spiritual power over the seeds would reveal the rich essence of grass and wood deep within, as if the entire essence of the spiritual seed converged at one point.
As for the Five-Element Fruit seeds, they were elliptical, with colorful spiritual light surging inside. The spiritual energy diffused naturally, seemingly merging together yet distinctly separated. After Guanwan left, Lu Xuan couldn't wait and went to the Earth Element Spiritual Soil field laid out as a spiritual field.
There were two special spiritual fields – one planted with over eighty Water Fire Grass plants, and the other with only four Hidden Element Pine trees. The rest of the area was left empty.
The four Hidden Element Pine trees, which he had been nurturing with spiritual awareness since childhood, sensed his approach and joyfully swayed their trunks, producing waves of pine rustling.
Lu Xuan extended his spiritual awareness, soothing the four Hidden Element Pines. Then, activating his spiritual power, he used the Earth Attraction Technique to create twenty fine cracks, perfectly enclosing each Hidden Element Grass seed.
With focused concentration, a thought emerged in his mind.
【Hidden Element Grass, Third-Rank spiritual plant. During its growth, it refines spiritual energy deep within the plant into special wood and grass essence, the main material for refining Foundation Establishment pills.】
【For spiritual plants, one must look at the inner qualities, not just the appearance.】
After planting the Hidden Element Grass seeds, Lu Xuan continued to bury the Five-Element Fruit seeds in the spiritual soil.
【Five-Element Fruit, Fourth-Rank spiritual plant. During its growth, it needs
to be cultivated with Five-Element spiritual energy, the main material for refining Five-Element pills.】
【Spiritual plants follow the principles of the Five Elements, constantly changing within the plant. Cultivating with the promoting energy of the Five Elements can enhance the growth of the spiritual plant, while cultivating with the inhibiting energy of the Five Elements may damage the plant's essence.】
【No one understands the Five Elements better than me.】
