"By mobilizing the spiritual power in this silver-white hair, you can summon it to come to you at the fastest speed?"
Lu Xuan's mind focused on the White Sky Ape, realizing that the silver-white hair it sent out was extraordinary. When the spiritual power was activated, the White Jade Ape within a certain range could sense it immediately and rush to assist Lu Xuan at the fastest speed.
"Thank you for such a generous gift."
Lu Xuan patted the White Sky Ape's head, feeling a cool and firm touch on his fingertips.
He was well aware that despite the shy and timid appearance of the White Jade Ape, it actually admired violence, was fierce and combative. Giving him its hair indicated a certain level of friendship, but more importantly, Lu Xuan wanted to have a good fight.
The Profound White Phoenix also approached, chirping crisply towards Lu Xuan. It promised to come to his aid immediately if he encountered any problems and invited him to visit the sanctuary where the sect's spiritual beasts resided.
"Sure, I'll definitely come when I have the chance."
Lu Xuan expressed his curiosity about the place where high-ranking spiritual beasts lived in the sect, making a promise to the Profound White Phoenix.
The two spiritual beasts didn't stay long. One turned into an illusionary light point, directly passing through the formation, while the other transformed into a white stream of light, rushing out before the formation was fully activated.
As the day was getting late, Lu Xuan tidied up the courtyard and spent an hour in meditation and cultivation.
Running the "Grand Five Elements Technique," pure spiritual energy continuously flowed into his dantian from the pure aura within the mountain peak.
"I've practiced, yet it feels like I haven't."
After sensing the spiritual liquid gathered in his dantian, with no noticeable changes, he gained further insight into his own talents.
The next morning, he woke up early, inspected the spiritual field, and carefully examined and cared for all the spiritual plants outside the mountain peak. Afterward, he found a spiritual crane, flew to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.
In front of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.
After a period of time, it was still bustling with activity, with many Qi cultivators coming and going.
Lu Xuan entered the hall, went behind the light screen, and found a steward from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, assigning two tasks.
One was to collect the pupils of spiritual beasts to meet the growth requirements of the Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood.
The growth conditions for the fourth-grade spiritual plant were demanding, and the pupils collected from the previous tasks would not be sufficient after some time. Even the addition of the pupils from the fourth-grade giant scorpion he recently put down could only meet the needs of a few pupils on the trunk.
He detailed the rewards for the task based on the grade, rarity, and unique abilities of the spiritual beast pupils.
Then, he issued a task to collect various insect larvae and eggs, preferably those that molted their exoskeletons, for the mutual growth with the Profound Insect Vine.
The three insect chambers on the Profound Insect Vine—Hidden Wing Cicada, Black-Armored Beetle, and Silver-Threaded Mantis—had gradually fallen behind with the continuous growth of the plant. They couldn't meet the normal growth needs of the Profound Insect Vine.
With the acquisition of the fourth-grade Six-Eyed Red Iron Scorpion's exoskeleton, the Thorny Bone, there was no need to worry about the Thorny Bone Tree's growth.
As for the Holy Infant Fruit, Lu Xuan dared not issue a task within the sect to collect the blood, soul, and grievances of infants.
After assigning the tasks, Lu Xuan came out from behind the light screen and entered the hall.
Wherever he went, he saw Qi cultivators greeting him with respect, and Lu Xuan nodded back with a smile.
Due to his continuous stay in the sect nurturing spiritual plants and raising spiritual beasts, he rarely interacted with other sect members, let alone exploring the mysteries and seeking opportunities together.
Therefore, the number of cultivators he had met during the two to three years of Qi cultivation stage was limited, and the few he had some acquaintance with were even fewer.
Passing by the light screen, he saw familiar handwriting scrolling on the huge screen, and many cultivators were eagerly selecting tasks that suited them.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel emotional.
After joining the sect, he frequently visited the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, accepting many tasks related to spiritual plants and spiritual beasts, earning a substantial amount of spirit stones and sword imprints.
Several types of spiritual plants he cultivated in the spiritual field were obtained through these tasks, laying a solid foundation for his farming career within the sect.
"It's a pity that now, having advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage, I can't compete for tasks with fellow junior disciples using my senior disciple identity. Otherwise, how could you have a chance?"
Lu Xuan sneered inwardly. Although there were occasional spiritual plant tasks on the light screen, if he, as a Foundation Establishment inner disciple, were to take tasks assigned by Qi cultivation fellow disciples, it would be considered inappropriate, and he had to reluctantly give up.
Fortunately, after becoming an inner disciple, besides the huge benefits when breaking through a realm, the sect also provided him with a monthly stipend in the form of sword imprints. Additionally, after entering the Sword Pavilion, he would receive a fixed number of sword imprints every month.
Even if he didn't do any tasks, he could still receive over a hundred sword imprints per month, making it a generous reward.
Recalling the ups and downs of the past, Lu Xuan came out of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and called a spiritual crane, soaring into the sky.
When he was about to reach his mountain peak, a distant ethereal deer cry reached his ears.
The spiritual crane, upon hearing it, instinctively slowed down, and the spiritual energy within its body became lively.
After a few breaths, a giant deer, two zhang tall, came flying from a distance. As it landed, ripples of green emanated from its hooves.
Where the ripples passed, the spiritual plants grew wildly, revealing strong vitality.
"That's the old deer equivalent to the Foundation Establishment realm."
Lu Xuan had seen this giant deer once before. It was called the Azure Profound Deer, a fifth-grade spiritual beast. Legend had it that it was nurtured by a deceased Foundation Establishment cultivator in the sect and had been guarding the sect for many years.
Compared to the last time he saw it, the Azure Profound Deer seemed to be in a worse state.
The pair of white jade deer antlers on its head had dimmed quite a bit, showing a faint grayish-white color.
The fur on its body resembled dry and long weeds, emitting a faint aura of death.
The vigorous vitality brought by the giant deer sharply contrasted with its own dilapidated and lifeless body, creating a strong visual impact.
The giant deer quickly passed by Lu Xuan, disappearing into the sky with only distant calls echoing.
Even without raising the giant deer, Lu Xuan could hear a deep sense of longing in its cries.
He sighed lightly, instructing the spiritual crane to carry him back to the mountain peak.
In a world full of greenery, countless towering spiritual trees and thick vines covered everything.
The entire area was filled with a rich and pure spiritual aura.
The Azure Profound Deer, seen by Lu Xuan before, was lying weakly in a giant web woven by vines.
"The condition of this Azure Profound Deer's body is deteriorating."
A middle-aged cultivator in a blue robe, with four eyes, stood in the sky with an expressionless face, looking down at the giant deer.
"Life essence is depleted, and its end is near. It's time to prepare for its aftermath."
Beside the middle-aged cultivator, a handsome young man spoke lightly. Sword qi phantoms constantly moved around him, displaying various forms of exotic beasts.
"The attachment is too deep. If not handled properly, it may have adverse effects."
The middle-aged cultivator suddenly opened all four eyes, revealing a myriad of scenes deep within, and coldly said.
