As Lu Xuan concentrated, the progress bar beneath the Firefly Grass almost reached completion.
At this moment, Lu Xuan was eager to verify the rewards from the Firefly Grass's luminous sphere, disregarding its full maturity, and directly plucked it.
Details about the Firefly Grass emerged.
【Firefly Grass, Second-grade spiritual plant...】
"Ordinary quality, acceptable."
Lu Xuan casually checked the Firefly Grass's quality and focused on the white luminous sphere that appeared.
The white sphere, shimmering slightly in the original position of the Firefly Grass, stirred Lu Xuan's heartstrings.
"Hopefully, it can yield cultivation rewards."
With anticipation, Lu Xuan reached out and gently touched the surface of the white luminous sphere.
The sphere instantly transformed into countless tiny dots of light, resembling a galaxy inverted, flowing into Lu Xuan's body.
A thought surfaced in his mind.
【Harvested one second-grade Firefly Grass, gained one year of cultivation.】
As the thought passed, a surge of spiritual power rose within him, filling his meridians.
Lu Xuan activated the "Grand Five Elements Technique," converting the excess spiritual power into spiritual liquid stored in his dantian.
"Accumulation leads to breakthroughs. It's the result of my diligent cultivation on ordinary days that I can make such rapid progress today."
"It's true that effort brings rewards."
Familiar cultivation rewards brought joy to Lu Xuan, and he continued to harvest the remaining two Firefly Grasses ripened by the Green Wood Source Qi.
【Harvested one second-grade Firefly Grass, gained a second-grade spiritual pill.】
【Harvested one second-grade Firefly Grass, gained two years of cultivation.】
The two mature Firefly Grasses were of ordinary and good quality, and a second-grade spiritual pill that enhanced spiritual power emerged from the luminous sphere. For Lu Xuan, in the early Foundation Establishment stage, it still had some effects.
Additionally, it increased his cultivation by two years, probably due to the good quality of the Firefly Grass he harvested.
"After advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage, when harvesting mature spirit plants with no grade, the cultivation reward for ordinary quality was one month, and for good quality, it was two months."
"Now, with the mature second-grade Firefly Grass, the cultivation reward for ordinary quality is one year, and for good quality, it's two years, an increase of more than ten times in effectiveness."
"I can see the hope of reaching the Core Formation stage."
Although the cultivation process of second-grade spiritual plants consumed more spiritual power and time, under such cultivation rewards, the effort seemed negligible.
With his average aptitude, fellow sect members within the sect would catch up to him in a year of cultivation, so only by continuously accumulating cultivation could he make further progress.
The possibility of normal cultivation to the Core Formation stage was almost negligible, nearly a fanciful idea.
"Now it's different. With my daily hard work and a bit of luminous sphere reward, the speed of cultivation improvement has increased by who knows how much."
Lu Xuan thought with a smiling face.
After confirming that the Firefly Grass could bring abundant cultivation rewards, Lu Xuan finally relaxed.
He planned to cultivate the remaining twenty plants normally, use the Green Wood Source Qi at critical moments, and stimulate other varieties of spiritual plants for more second-grade Firefly Grass seeds.
...
In the high sky, Lu Xuan sat on an elegant spirit crane, shuttling through the mountains.
This time, he was invited by Liu Su, who had a chance encounter in The Sky Sword Sect Secret Realm, to exchange experiences with several fellow sect members proficient in spiritual plants and spirit beasts.
The spirit crane landed on a quiet mountain peak, and Liu Su, with a fair complexion and a tranquil temperament, had been waiting halfway up the mountain.
"Welcome, Junior Brother Lu, to our mountain gathering."
"Thank you for your trouble, Senior Sister Liu."
Lu Xuan smiled and returned the greeting, following Liu Su to a elegant courtyard.
Later, other fellow sect members arrived at the mountain peak one after another. Whenever a cultivator came, Liu Su would introduce both parties.
In the end, when all the cultivators had gathered, besides Lu Xuan and Liu Su, there were five others, all with cultivation in the early Foundation Establishment stage.
During the introduction process by Liu Su, Lu Xuan keenly noticed a young man with a gloomy demeanor looking at him. There was a subtle scrutiny in his gaze. Whenever Liu Su spoke to him, he showed a faint sign of nervousness.
Lu Xuan pondered and guessed that the young man probably admired Liu Su secretly. Therefore, he maintained a suitable distance to avoid any misunderstanding.
Wine and delicacies flowed in the clear courtyard, and spirit fruits and teas were readily available in the gurgling spring water.
Everyone had considerable accomplishments in spiritual plants and spirit beasts, exchanging insights and experiences with each other.
Lu Xuan benefited a lot from this gathering. These fellow sect members had entered the sect years earlier and delved deep into the path of spiritual plants and spirit beasts, accumulating much knowledge and experience. Lu Xuan learned many tricks from them.
Lu Xuan's occasional remarks also enlightened the others. Although he didn't possess as much knowledge about spiritual plants, he understood many things related to their essence, especially cultivation methods. His insights were broad, making the others gain new perspectives.
"I've heard about Junior Brother Lu solving the lingering issue of the Fifth-grade Azure Profound Deer in the Sky Sword Sect Secret Realm. Initially, I was skeptical, but seeing you today, I realize Junior Brother Lu indeed has a unique talent in the field of spiritual plants."
"That's right, seeing is believing."
"Junior Brother Lu, if you have time, you can visit my cave mansion. We can have a deep exchange of ideas."
Lu Xuan hurriedly waved his hand.
"I dare not, I dare not. Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, you flatter me."
He never hid his abilities in spiritual plants and spirit beasts, but he concealed the cultivation rewards and many treasures obtained from the luminous spheres.
The more he revealed in spiritual plants and spirit beasts, the easier it was to come into contact with higher-level sect members, gaining more precious opportunities.
If he hadn't helped Yang Qingfeng solve the problem of the Black-scaled flood dragon's loss of appetite earlier, he wouldn't have had the chance to meet the true transmission disciple Ge Pu, let alone enter the Sky Sword Sect Secret Realm.
In that case, the Sword Command and Green Wood Source Qi would have slipped through his fingers.
"Junior Brother Lu, have you considered joining the sect and becoming a disciple under the guidance of a Core Formation cultivator? If not, I can recommend you to my master."
After a few modest exchanges, a middle-aged cultivator asked.
"Thank you for the kind offer, Senior Brother."
"After becoming an inner disciple, I pondered it thoroughly and ultimately decided to cultivate alone."
"I've been used to laziness and find it challenging to be restrained."
Lu Xuan apologized with a regretful expression.
Joining the disciples under the guidance of a Core Formation cultivator would undoubtedly provide guidance in cultivation and offer a better background. However, it had both advantages and disadvantages. It would restrict him in various aspects. Therefore, Lu Xuan chose to cultivate independently.
Having the support of a major sect like the Sky Sword Sect was enough
. Currently, he was not an ordinary wandering cultivator. With two grown-up guardian spirit beasts and his value gradually being recognized in the sect's Sword Pavilion, he displayed his worth.
As for resources and techniques, Lu Xuan estimated that cultivating a high-grade spiritual plant to obtain the rewards from the luminous sphere would be more beneficial than joining a Core Formation cultivator's sect.
"Hey, have you heard? The Sect Blessed Land, one of the three major sect lands, is about to open in half a year."
"Really?"
"I heard this news from a true transmission disciple. It must be true."
"It seems we need to find a Sword Command."
"That's for sure. After all, it's a sect land, not an ordinary secret realm."
"There are opportunities everywhere inside, and if you're lucky, you might even obtain ancient spiritual seeds or the embryonic eggs of ancient spirit beasts. Besides, with a Core Formation cultivator guarding it, there's no danger in entering the blessed land. Such an opportunity must not be missed."
