Chapter 101
The shuttle-shaped flying vessel swiftly traversed the mountains and lakes.
At each stop, the cultivators from Sky Sword Sect warmly introduced the sights to Lu Xuan and his companions.
"Sky Sword Sect is strong in every aspect compared to other sects, especially in swordsmanship. It stands out among the rest, surpassing them by more than one level."
"There is the Cleansing Sword Pool; within it, endless sword qi is nurtured. When flying swords are placed inside, it refines their intent, removing impurities to purify them further."
"Adding a small amount of Cleansing Sword Pool water while forging sword tools can slightly enhance the success rate of the forging process."
A refined-looking cultivator from Sky Sword Sect pointed to a water pool below, and Lu Xuan followed the gaze, seeing the pool shimmering with sword light, the sharp intent palpable even in the high skies.
"That's the Fallen Sword Peak, housing many flying swords left behind by the deceased predecessors of Sky Sword Sect. Among them are high-grade swords, brimming with spirituality."
"If any of you juniors have a deep affinity for swordsmanship, perhaps you might venture to the Fallen Sword Peak for opportunities. Who knows, you might obtain a rare sword."
The Sky Sword Sect cultivator pointed to a nearby towering peak.
The immense mountain, hundreds of zhang high, occasionally echoed with the sharp clashing of swords within.
"This is the Sword-Fighting Pavilion, constructed from top-grade green stones. Even Nascent Soul cultivators can't easily cause massive destruction here. It's a great place for fellow disciples to spar and exchange techniques."
Veiled in mist, the Sword-Fighting Pavilion barely revealed itself, shrouded in mystery.
"Senior brother, does the sect have special places for cultivating spirit plants and nurturing spirit beasts?" Lu Xuan asked curiously.
"Naturally. Several elders proficient in alchemy within the sect possess rich experiences and unique insights in nurturing spirit plants and beasts. The sect also has numerous lakes and mountains dedicated to cultivating them."
The upright cultivator smiled and explained.
"For instance, that vast lake ahead spanning dozens of li is called the Thousand Dragon Lake. As the name implies, it houses numerous dragon serpents, pythons, and other creatures, mostly of the second grade, with tens or even hundreds of third-grade and higher beasts."
"Sword Seals can be exchanged for various things: techniques, artifacts, elixirs, talismans, etc. They can even be exchanged for spirit stones, although that's not common."
The refined-looking cultivator elaborated in detail to Lu Xuan and the others, some of whom were already familiar with these concepts, while others encountered them for the first time.
Lu Xuan listened avidly, taking it all to heart.
After a while, the shuttle-shaped flying vessel halted on a verdant mountain peak, where several elegant buildings stood among the mountain slopes.
"Junior brothers and sisters, it will be a few more days before you officially join the sect. During this time, you can rest and cultivate here."
"Just remember not to wander aimlessly. You don't have disciple identity plaques yet, and there are formations and restrictions all over the sect. Forcibly intruding can cause unnecessary trouble or even lead to injury or death. If you need anything, you can find me or other sect cultivators at any time."
The refined cultivator advised Lu Xuan and the others before departing.
Everyone nodded and chose their rooms, retreating inside for rest.
Lu Xuan didn't fuss and selected a secluded and tranquil room. He spent his days reading, practicing, and occasionally chatting with Bai Li Jianqing, who lived nearby.
Though eager to release the spirit plants and beasts from the Life-Preserving Bag, he had no place to house them for now, so they remained inside.
During this time, he got acquainted with some talented young cultivators. Upon learning of Lu Xuan's ordinary background and his dedication to spirit plants, most of the initially enthusiastic cultivators turned distant. Only two or three remained unaffected in their attitude.
In the cultivation world, cultivation level was the primary criterion. Upon hearing Lu Xuan's plans, many quickly predicted his inevitable lag in progress along the path of cultivation.
Given the lowly status of a spirit plant cultivator compared to alchemists or array masters, Lu Xuan's cold treatment or even disdain was a natural occurrence.
However, Lu Xuan remained unperturbed. With the presence of the white light cluster, he had more confidence than the exceptionally gifted and well-connected cultivators present.
Regardless of external circumstances, all he wanted was to
peacefully tend his fields.
