"The third-grade elixir, Dust-Reducing Pill, can eliminate impurities within a cultivator's body, reducing the risk of deviation. Elixirs with such effects are relatively rare."
Lu Xuan scrutinized the round elixir exuding a refreshing fragrance in his palm, murmuring to himself.
During cultivation, if a cultivator absorbs and refines spiritual energy in an environment formed by lower-grade spiritual veins, there might be subtle impurities lingering within their body. Prolonged accumulation could slightly impact a cultivator's breakthroughs.
Furthermore, lingering in the wild, exposed to turbid spiritual energy, accelerates impurity accumulation.
In such situations, encountering intrusion by malevolent forces could easily lead to a cultivator's deviation into something strange.
Lu Xuan had encountered a Qi cultivator's deviation back in the Linyang District's wandering cultivator market, where the cultivator suddenly attacked others indiscriminately.
Now, with this third-grade Dust-Reducing Pill brewed from Clear Spirit Tea, the risk of deviation could be reduced.
He hadn't intended to sell or exchange this pill for something else, swallowing it without hesitation.
After a few breaths, a pure and clear energy surged from his abdomen, swiftly spreading through Lu Xuan's limbs. Instantly, he felt a lightness in his body, as if something intangible had dispersed from within.
Additionally, he felt an unprecedented clarity in his mind, with information racing through his thoughts, recollecting past experiences vividly.
"So, this is the effect of the Dust-Reducing Pill, clearing the mind and enhancing clarity."
Recalling the "Minor Five Elements Technique" and "Cloud-Soaring Art" he obtained from the scripture pavilion, Lu Xuan suddenly grasped many things that had been shallowly understood before.
"I love cultivation; it propels me forward."
Under the influence of the third-grade Dust-Reducing Pill, Lu Xuan, at the eighth layer of Qi refinement, felt a sense of transcendent genius.
Sensing this state might persist for a while, he left his cavern and rented a spiritual crane, returning to the scripture pavilion.
Inside the pavilion, instead of the young-looking cultivator with crane hair he'd seen last time, there stood a moderately featured high-level Qi cultivator.
Lu Xuan spent three Sword Seals to rent three thick jade volumes from the pavilion.
These volumes weren't about profound cultivation techniques or powerful secret arts but contained common knowledge about spiritual plants and beasts in the cultivation world.
His foundation was weak, relying solely on his immediate grasp of the status of spiritual plants and the feedback from the white light orb to reach his current level.
Since he'd entered the sect and had such a good opportunity, he naturally aimed to make the most of it, earnestly supplementing his related knowledge.
Back in his cavern, while still in this enhanced state, he promptly opened one of the jade volumes.
A lifelike shadow of a spiritual plant appeared before him, incredibly detailed, down to the veins on the plant's leaves.
Next to the plant's shadow were small characters, detailing the plant's type, grade, and other information.
Lu Xuan memorized these shadows and characters deeply, turning to the second page.
The three volumes contained knowledge about spiritual plants and beasts: their types, grades, common habitats, growth environments, harvesting methods, storage, and remedies for common pests.
Each page presented a lifelike, three-dimensional image, aiding cultivators in better memorization and making it challenging for knowledge to disseminate.
For the next few days, Lu Xuan remained in his cavern, nurturing spiritual plants, raising Cloud-Stepping Lynxes and iron-clawed crabs, and dedicating the rest of his time to perusing these three volumes.
While surveying the spiritual fields, with focused thoughts, a batch of Firefly Grass entered the fully mature stage.
In total, twenty-six Firefly Grass had matured, seven of which were of perfect quality, while the rest were of good or excellent quality, with more of the latter.
After absorbing each white light orb, he gained nearly six years' worth of cultivation, significantly boosting Lu Xuan's cultivation once more, nearing the brink of breaking through to the ninth layer of Qi refinement.
Additionally, the orbs primarily brought him elixirs and talismans, mainly first-grade, along with two second-grade talismans.
Moreover, there were two droplets of Spirit Essence Liquid and an Experience Package for a Pill Forging Formula.
He continued to feed the Spirit Essence Liquid to his Grass Puppet, letting it absorb the rich essence of herbs and trees.
After absorbing the Experience Package, Lu Xuan's understanding of refining the Pill Forging Formula deepened, even feeling an urge to seize the opportunity to obtain a top-tier pill furnace and attempt the refining process.
Besides the mature Firefly Grass, three tender green tea leaves on the Clear Spirit Tea tree were ready for harvesting.
Carefully, Lu Xuan plucked the Clear Spirit Tea leaves and stored them in a specially made jade box, preserving their spiritual essence as much as possible.
Among the three leaves, two matched the quality of the first harvested leaf, both being of good quality, while one leaf was of excellent quality.
Three white light orbs appeared where the tea leaves were picked.
Lu Xuan gently collected them, the orbs turning into a galaxy of light, streaming into his body.
"[Harvested one Clear Spirit Tea leaf, obtained a third-grade Dust-Reducing Pill.]"
A fragrant pill materialized in his palm.
"[Harvested one Clear Spirit Tea leaf, obtained a third-grade Cleansing Talisman.]"
A talisman resembling white jade appeared in Lu Xuan's hand, countless almost transparent lines adorning it, emanating a sacred and pure aura.
A thought flashed through his mind.
"[Cleansing Talisman, third-grade talisman, can detect malevolent forces within a certain area and has a purifying effect on deceptive-level malevolent forces.]"
"Deceptive-level malevolent forces; that's already comparable to Foundation Establishment cultivators. Truly, a third-grade talisman is much more potent than similar first-grade exorcism talismans."
Lu Xuan marveled.
Having cultivated so much Firefly Grass, he'd obtained quite a few first-grade exorcism talismans from the white light orbs. Though they could sense the aura of malevolent forces, their ability to harm them was minimal, let alone purifying deceptive-level malevolent forces.
Lu Xuan stowed away the first third-grade talisman he obtained into his storage bag, then turned his attention to the last remaining white light orb.
This orb was from the superior quality leaf, raising his expectations.
With great anticipation, Lu Xuan reached out and gently touched the floating white light orb on the root of the tea tree.
The orb transformed into countless points of light, instantly rushing into Lu Xuan's body.
Immediately, a vast amount of information flooded his mind.
"[Harvested one Clear Spirit Tea leaf, obtained a third-grade cultivation technique 'Lustrous Bone Forging Technique' (Upper)]"
"'Lustrous Bone Forging Technique,' a third-grade cultivation technique that, when cultivated, can refine a cultivator's bones, making them crystal clear and as tough as third-grade artifacts."
"A third-grade body-refining technique from a second-grade spiritual plant; unexpected!"
Lu Xuan was pleasantly surprised. However, he was puzzled by
the term 'upper part.'
With a sense of curiosity, he waited until the information fully digested in his mind before understanding.
The 'upper part' of the 'Lustrous Bone Forging Technique' could only be cultivated up to the Qi refinement stage. To progress further, the lower part had to be obtained.
