Chapter 106
After retrieving techniques from the Scripture Pavilion, Lu Xuan returned directly to his cave dwelling.
He took out two flowing lightwood spirit seeds and two young Yin Locust saplings and arrived at the Spirit Field.
Finding an empty area, he executed the Earth Attraction Technique, causing subtle changes in the spiritual soil structure. He placed the two palm-sized oval-shaped spirit seeds into the crevices, burying them in the shallow layer of spiritual soil.
His consciousness focused on the spirit seeds within the spiritual soil, a thought emerging in Lu Xuan's mind.
[Flowing Lightwood, a second-grade spiritual plant. Mature leaves from the Flowing Lightwood tree can be used to refine certain talismans, while its bark can be tanned into leather-type artifacts.]
[The patterns on the Flowing Lightwood spirit seeds undergo subtle changes when sprouting. Any severe imbalances may affect the quality of the emerging Flowing Lightwood saplings.]
[Sprouting and growth stages require guidance from wood-elemental techniques to control the pattern changes, ensuring the quality of the Flowing Lightwood.]
[Flowing Lightwood easily confuses people.]
"It seems this is the crucial point to note in cultivating Flowing Lightwood."
"Regarding wood-elemental techniques, my Wood Growth Technique has already reached a small accomplishment level, so cultivating second-grade spiritual plants naturally poses no issue."
Lu Xuan thought to himself as spiritual power surged, strands of spirit rain transforming into fine threads, seeping into the spiritual soil and absorbed by the Flowing Lightwood spirit seeds.
"Yin Locust Trees have specific environmental requirements for growth. Where should I plant them?"
Lu Xuan surveyed the cave dwelling, noting every possible spot suitable for Yin Locust Trees growth.
"I've got it! Isn't there a ready-made rock cave? The height is decent, no internal illumination, meeting the perfect conditions for Yin Locust growth."
Carrying two young Yin Locust saplings, Lu Xuan headed to the entrance of the rock cave.
The inside of the cave remained relatively dry, exuding a faint coolness upon entry. As for the height, Lu Xuan estimated it wouldn't be a concern for quite some time. By the time the Yin Locusts grew to that stage, he might already be engaged in inner sect cultivation or farming.
He selected two spots and planted the two young Yin Locusts.
His consciousness concentrated on the eerie Yin Locust saplings.
[Yin Locust, a second-grade spiritual plant. Processed Yin Locust wood after maturity can enhance the cultivation speed of Yin attribute techniques and serve as material for certain elixirs.]
[After reaching a certain age, they might undergo peculiar changes.]
Both the second-grade Copper Bone Bamboo and the third-grade Illusory Smoke Fruit and Dragonvine were steadily growing.
The recently planted Flowing Lightwood had already sprouted, its tender green stems displaying intricate and complex patterns. Lu Xuan occasionally inspected them, using Wood Growth Technique to guide the spiritual power, rearranging and restoring any compressed or twisted patterns to their normal state.
Inside the rock cave, the Yin Locusts had grown about half a foot taller, their eerie Yin energy palpable upon entering.
With the spiritual plants in his cave dwelling on the right track, Lu Xuan devised a new plan.
He intended to pick up a suitable task from the Administration Hall to earn some Sword Seals.
Sword Seals held immense importance within the Sky Sword Sect. Obtaining valuable treasures required expending these seals.
While searching for spiritual seeds in the Agricultural Hall, Lu Xuan learned that relying solely on spirit stones would only yield common first and second-grade spiritual plants. Higher grades and rarer species required Sword Seals for exchange.
This was something Lu Xuan couldn't overlook.
Several factors affected the rewards of the orbs, among them the grade and rarity of the spiritual plants. The higher the grade and rarity, the more abundant the rewards.
Hence, he needed to earn enough Sword Seals to prepare for planting higher-grade and rarer spiritual plants in the future.
Administration Hall.
Lu Xuan jumped down from the Spirit Crane's body, observing his surroundings before entering the main hall.
Inside, there was a massive light screen, ten yards long and three to four yards wide.
Rows of large characters emerged on the light screen, continuously rolling from the bottom to the top, refreshing information.
It was said that
this light screen was a fifth-grade artifact. Hidden within the Administration Hall, when a sect cultivator needed to issue tasks, they could inform the cultivator controlling the artifact inside the hall.
To accept a task, one simply used spiritual consciousness to contact the text on the light screen. Once absorbed, it indicated that the task had been accepted, and the task information disappeared from the screen.
"It's quite convenient."
Lu Xuan sighed and shifted his gaze to the gigantic light screen.
