Within the spiritual field, Lu Xuan found an empty area and retrieved a white jade box containing the spirit seeds of Enchanting Spirit Peaches.
He carefully examined the three spirit seeds in the box. Unknowingly, the pink smoke within the seeds' crevices grew denser. Lu Xuan's gaze was captivated as the seeds instantly transford into peach-like shapes, teasing his youthful vigor.
"Bold! I can tell at a glance you're not genuine spirit seeds!"
Lu Xuan's spiritual power surged as he cast a purification mantra upon himself. Instantly, clarity filled his mind, calming his thoughts.
The core spirit seeds reverted to their original appearance.
"These aren't genuine spirit peaches, but luckily, I have a way to deal with them."
"Under the purification mantra, I have no desires or needs. Won can only slow down my farming speed!"
Lu Xuan employed an earth attraction technique, causing subtle changes within the spiritual soil. Three circular openings erged, perfectly accommodating the three Enchanting Spirit Peach spirit seeds.
Focusing on one Enchanting Spirit Peach seed, a thought flashed in his mind.
[Enchanting Spirit Peach, a third-grade spiritual plant, yields fruit approximately every three years, then every two years until reaching its life limit. Matured fruits contain abundant spiritual energy, highly favored by cultivators and spirit beasts.]
[Fruits can be eaten directly, offering natural anti-aging effects and can enhance the consur's charisma with prolonged use. They're also used in refining certain special elixirs or brewing spirit wine.]
[During their growth, these plants release miasma that stirs desires within cultivators and beasts. Gathering this miasma through special ans allows for the crafting of certain mystical artifacts.]
"Long is the path of cultivation; tily enjoynt is key."
"For , planting spiritual crops is the greatest joy."
Lu Xuan reminisced about these thoughts in his mind.
Since entering the sect, he encountered various types of spiritual plants. In the Linyang Fang Market, due to the lower-grade spiritual plants, most were one-ti harvests, making it difficult to reap a second ti.
Now, in the spiritual field, there were the long-lived Yin Locust Trees. The longer they lived, the better, although they were restricted by their own lifespans.
Additionally, with the periodic Enchanting Spirit Peach seeds he planted, he could harvest new fruits periodically until the plant reached its life limit.
"A third-grade spiritual plant is akin to the Foundation Establishnt realm. Naturally, it won't have infinite life; one can only pick fruits within its life cycle."
"Still, it's quite good since each fruit can reward a light orb."
Lu Xuan sighed quietly.
He moved to another part of the spiritual field and employed an earth attraction technique, placing ten Venomous Shuttlewood seeds into the spiritual soil.
Focusing on one of the seeds, a thought crossed his mind.
[Venomous Shuttlewood, a second-grade spiritual plant. Matured fruits hold abundant fire elental energy, causing a mild explosion in the mouth when consud. The energy can warm the limbs and can be used in brewing certain spirit drinks.]
"Fire-elent fruits like Venomous Shuttlewood, paired with the previously planted Ice Chi Fruit, will give the high-grade spirit beasts within the sect a taste of the dual realms of ice and fire."
Lu Xuan grinned, observing the Venomous Shuttlewood in its seed state and the nearby Ice Chi Fruit sprouting leaves. His plans pleased him.
This way, his cavern now housed a variety of spiritual plants: the ungraded Grass Spirit Essence, second-grade Flowing Light Wood, Yin Locust Trees, Venomous Shuttlewood, Ice Chi Fruits, Sword Grass, third-grade Dragon Whisker Grass, Jade Scale Fruit Trees, Sword-Nurturing Gourds, Enchanting Spirit Peaches, and the sole fourth-grade Dark Marrow Fungus.
Adding the Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom, Thorny Bone Trees, and Blood Essence Leaf from the courtyard in Sword Gate Town, Lu Xuan unconsciously cultivated various high-grade and rare spiritual plants, demonstrating remarkable growth in his path of cultivation.
After a mont of reflection, Lu Xuan cald his mind, inspecting the growth status of each spiritual plant in the field.
In the area with Grass Spirit Essence, the remaining seventy-seven plants matured in succession.
Lu Xuan harvested them all, obtaining ten perfect-quality Grass Spirit Essences, most of them being of superior quality, with a few of good quality.
Seventy-seven white light orbs—though the rewards within weren't extravagant, the act of harvesting itself brought him joy. He tirelessly moved from one to another, absorbing these orbs, granting him over ten years of cultivation rewards.
As he absorbed each one, he felt an unprecedented abundance of spiritual power within him. His dantian subtly hinted at an impending surge.
"Almost there. Plant another batch of Grass Spirit Essence, harvest another wave of cultivation, and then I can try breaking through to the Foundation Establishnt realm."
Sensing the energy within, Lu Xuan felt a surreal sensation.
Just over three years ago, he was rely a Qi refining second-level cultivator, average in talent, with an ordinary background, pondering daily on survival and scraping together spirit stones.
Now, what once seed unreachable—the lofty Foundation Establishnt realm—didn't appear as distant.
This strengthened his determination to tread the path of planting spiritual crops.
Among the remaining light orbs, most rewards were first-grade elixirs and talismans, along with a few earth attraction and wood growth technique experience packets, which were better than nothing.
The ten perfect-quality Grass Spirit Essences brought decent rewards. Three second-grade Myriad Sword Qi Talismans, four drops of first-grade precious Grass Spirit Essence, and three packets of foundational Pill Cultivation Technique.
Lu Xuan stored the over seventy matured Grass Spirit Essences in a long white jade box, securing various rewards and summoning the Grass Puppet before him.
"Co, have sothing delicious."
He took out a drop of Grass Spirit Essence and inserted it into the large gray grass lump on the puppet's head.
A crack appeared in the gray grass lump, absorbing the rich essence of plant spirits contained within the Grass Spirit Essence.
Instantly, the gray grass lump turned green, extending down into two slender legs akin to chopsticks.
"Hmm? Is it about to break through or sothing?"
Lu Xuan suddenly realized sothing was off about the Grass Puppet before him. The gray grass that ford its body scattered chaotically, the large lump of grass expanding and contracting, undergoing so unknown change within.
Soon, the green color dissipated entirely. Fresh gray grass sprouted from its body, seemingly worms burrowing into the grass lump.
Through his perception, Lu Xuan witnessed countless gray grasses reorganizing within the lump, reforming the Grass Puppet's body.
The new body remained oversized in the head and small in the body, but overall, it appeared more compact and solid, with the huge lump on its head seeming a bit larger.
Lu Xuan focused his mind on it, discovering that the Grass Puppet's sentience had also increased. Previously following simple behavior patterns, it now possessed a low-level sentience equivalent to a two or three-year-old toddler.
Deep within, it seed to hold absolute trust and dependence on Lu Xuan, occasionally displaying the words 'guarding the spiritual field' within its limited sentience.
Lu Xuan experinted and found it could release and control more grass now, its toughness heightened. When gathered, the grass ford a formidable object akin to a first-grade mystical artifact.
However, its execution speed remained steady, following its own rhythm.
"This secondhand Grass Puppet I got early on in the roaming cultivator market, has been with the longest. I've nurtured it with the first-grade superior Grass Spirit Essence, and now, it finally breaks through."
Lu Xuan gazed at the Grass Puppet before him, its deanor sowhat absent-minded.
"It looks better with a touch of green."
He smiled faintly, taking out another drop of Grass Spirit Essence, inserting it into the larger lump of grass on the puppet.
