"Lu Xuan, your enlightenment is truly commendable," Shen Ye expressed, his eyes brimming with intense admiration for Lu Xuan.
Such a spirit of dedication and belonging to the sect was exceptionally rare among the disciples.
"It's only right," Lu Xuan responded earnestly. "To restore the glory of the Sword Hall is a duty we cannot shirk!"
"Lu Xuan, you have made a significant contribution by providing the method to condense the third-grade Sword Grass seeds. In the future, if the Sword Hall condenses new spiritual plant seeds, you will be the first to have the cultivation rights."
"For the Sword Grass you cultivate for the Sword Hall, you can apply to use it yourself or submit it to the hall. Depending on the grade and quantity of the Sword Grass, the hall will reward you generously."
"However, condensing fourth-grade Sword Grass seeds is extremely difficult, and their bulk appearance is rare. Once successful, they are often fiercely competed for by many sword cultivators within the hall."
"But rest assured, Lu Xuan, as soon as we have fourth-grade Sword Grass seeds, I will contact you immediately to choose whether to cultivate them."
"As for the fifth grade, that's already within the realm of Core Formation. Only the Sword Pool and other exotic places in the Sword Hall might occasionally produce one or two. If you're unlucky, it might be decades before you encounter one again. I will also keep an eye out for you."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Shen!" Lu Xuan bowed and sincerely thanked him.
After discussing the method to condense the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass seeds, Lu Xuan bid farewell to Shen Ye and returned to his cave dwelling.
Ignoring the stir his paper had caused within the Sword Hall, Lu Xuan devoted himself to quietly cultivating spiritual plants and rearing spiritual beasts in his spiritual field.
He had successfully condensed seeds from seventy stalks of Water Firefly Grass, obtaining more than three hundred slender blue seeds.
Following his usual practice, Lu Xuan scattered two hundred seeds into the prepared spiritual field.
Wisps of spiritual rain drifted down, penetrating the spirit soil and nourishing the slender seeds.
With the remaining hundred seeds, he planned to induce a variation, hoping to obtain third-grade mutant seeds, so his future cultivation breakthroughs wouldn't be in vain.
He took out several pieces of Hundred-Year Ice Soul and placed the hundred seeds among them, using the extreme cold emitted by the ice souls to nourish the seeds.
Since the Water Firefly Grass's five-elemental property leaned towards water, using ice souls for stimulation and improvement was more appropriate.
Using Pure Yang True Fire to stimulate the seeds might have resulted in all seeds turning into waste.
"Next time I go to the Broken Secret Realm, I could place them in that spring eye and use the Dark Spirit Spring Water to stimulate the seeds."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
After meticulously caring for all the spiritual plants in the spiritual fields around the mountain peak, he returned to his house.
High above the mountain, a grey and white pupil stealthily emerged from the void, appearing and disappearing mysteriously.
Seeing no anomalies around, Lu Xuan's thoughts moved, and a golden bright jade book appeared in his hands.
He gently flipped open the jade book, and the majestic cry of a golden crow filled his ears, its image burning into his sight.
The Golden Crow, engulfed in white and gold flames, seemed poised to incinerate all things in the world with its fiery dance.
Lu Xuan watched the lifelike Golden Crow on the page intently.
In a trance, he saw a giant fireball covering the sky, within which a Golden Crow soared freely. As it flapped its wings, pure white flames drifted down.
He extended his palm, and a wisp of pure white flame appeared at his fingertip, burning silently, harboring a terrifying power in its calm.
"After contemplating the 'Pure Yang True Fire Scroll' for years, the Pure Yang True Fire I've understood is probably at the fourth-grade level, making it a powerful method."
"Just when will I fully master and comprehend this fifth-grade divine power?" Lu Xuan wondered to himself.
After meditating on the golden jade book, he took out a piece of ancient, withered branch from the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.
The branch was adorned with over thirty sinister eyes, some tightly closed, others scanning around. Feeling Lu Xuan's gaze, all the eyes crawled around with spirited vitality.
Lu Xuan's body shimmered with a faint spiritual light as he plucked an eye, trailing numerous fine, translucent tentacles.
He directly inserted the eye into his forehead. Instantly, his eyes bulged as if something was crawling inside them, causing chaos in his sea of consciousness.
Struggling to maintain his clarity of mind, he circulated the Illusion Breaking Eye Technique, absorbing the power of the sinister eye.
Moments later, his eyes returned to normal. A subtle spiritual force
flowed into his eyes, and the world underwent a drastic change. The flow of spiritual energy within the mountain was visible, enhancing his vision significantly.
"Since plucking the Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood, I've been refining a sinister eye periodically to enhance my own eye technique, occasionally feeding one to the Cloud-Stepping Lynx. Nearly half of the eyes on the trunk have been used," Lu Xuan reflected, storing the branch that now resembled human skin.
In the following period, he maintained this simple, monotonous, yet fulfilling and peaceful routine.
Most of his time was spent cultivating spiritual plants, playing with spiritual beasts, and occasionally refining pills and practicing cultivation.
The materials for pill refining included both his cultivated spiritual plants and those bought at low prices from the Pill Hall. The pills he made were temporarily stored.
Since his skill in refining the Primordial Essence Pill and Spirit Nurturing Pill had reached the level of a grandmaster, with a near hundred percent success rate, it didn't take much of his time.
His cultivation focused on meditating on the "Pure Yang True Fire Scroll," practicing eye techniques, and the fifth-grade "Divine Genesis Scripture" that could enhance his spiritual sense. Occasionally, he would take a bath in Jiao Dragon essence blood to strengthen his physique.
The remaining ten second-grade Yellow Cloud plants matured during this period, all of average quality.
Inside the ten white light orbs that matured were six second-grade Beast Spirit Pills, three Beast Spirit Pill recipe experience packets, and two Agarwood Pills.
After absorbing the three experience packets, Lu Xuan's understanding of refining Beast Spirit Pills advanced significantly, reaching a mastery level with a roughly thirty percent success rate.
One day, a small sword talisman swiftly flew towards him, stopping outside the Flowing Light Formation, emitting sharp whistles.
Lu Xuan activated the formation to draw the talisman closer and stimulated it with his spiritual power.
Shen Ye's familiar voice came through, filled with joy.
"Lu Xuan, a Core Formation elder recently condensed five fourth-grade Sword Grass seeds."
"The variety is the Green Lotus Sword Grass. If you're interested, you can come to the Sword Hall to have a look. There's no time to delay; I can only reserve a seed for you for up to half a month."
"If you don't come to claim the seed within half a month, it will have to be given to other disciples of the Sword Hall."
"Fourth-grade Green Lotus Sword Grass?" Lu Xuan's voice was full of surprise.
Given the opportunity to obtain a fourth-grade Sword Grass seed, how could he possibly miss it?
"Let alone half a month, I can't wait even half an hour."
With a thought, Lu Xuan called over the chubby bird he had planned to meet with the swift falcon, instantly leaping onto its spacious back.
"To the Sword Hall, as fast as possible!"
