"Thank you for your hard work."
Lu Xuan jumped down from the back of a tall spirit crane and pulled out a bright red spiritual fruit, stuffing it into its mouth.
The spirit crane gently pecked his palm, its head with pure white feathers affectionately brushing against him. With a crisp chirp, it soared into the sky.
Lu Xuan, familiar with the route, entered the main hall of the Agricultural Hall.
Approaching an elderly cultivator he knew, he smiled and said, "Friend Xia, it's been a while. I've co to exchange for a new spiritual seed."
The elderly cultivator raised his head, wrinkles tightly gathered on his face. After looking at Lu Xuan, he instantly sensed the change in Lu Xuan's aura.
Carefully scanning with his divine sense, his face changed, and he respectfully lowered his head, saying, "Senior Brother Lu, you've co. Is there anything you need from your junior?"
"Friend Xia, there's no need to be so formal. I ca this ti to collect the cultivation resources available after advancing to the Foundation Establishnt stage."
Lu Xuan said gently, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. It seed that the reactions of familiar faces had beco sowhat awkward, as if things were not as familiar as before. However, he could understand; after all, in the cultivation world, strength was paramount, and once you broke through to a new realm, you couldn't go back to the way things were.
"Inform Senior Brother that if he wishes to apply for free spiritual seeds or refining thods during the Foundation Establishnt stage, he needs to enter the inner hall and register with his identity token."
The elderly cultivator explained to Lu Xuan.
"Then please, Friend Xia, lead to the inner hall."
The elderly cultivator nodded heavily and led Lu Xuan into a side door.
"Senior Brother Lu, the inner hall is just ahead. It's inconvenient for Qi refining disciples to enter, so I can only escort Senior Brother this far."
"Thank you, Friend Xia."
Lu Xuan expressed his gratitude and walked to the entrance of the inner hall.
A prohibition was set up at the entrance. Lu Xuan took out his identity token, shook it, and then entered.
Watching Lu Xuan's figure disappear, the elderly cultivator's expression changed. In his heart, he let out a light sigh.
The inner hall looked ordinary from the outside, but once inside, it had its own vast space. In the spacious main hall, a carpet made of high-level demonic beast hides covered the floor. Several pots of spiritually rich plants were placed around, and the tables and chairs seed to be made of several types of spiritual wood, with natural mysterious patterns on them, simple yet luxurious.
In this spacious inner hall, only two early Foundation Establishnt cultivators were on duty. Besides Lu Xuan, no one else entered, making it much quieter than the outer hall.
"This position seems quite suitable for slacking off..."
Lu Xuan sighed in his heart as he approached one of the young cultivators.
The young cultivator had an ordinary appearance, with a restrained and steady temperant. Seeing Lu Xuan coming over, he quickly stood up to greet him.
"Hello, Fellow Daoist. I'm Zhang Ce. Fellow Daoist seems a bit unfamiliar. Is this your first ti entering the inner hall?"
"Hello, Senior Brother Zhang. I'm Lu Xuan, indeed my first ti entering the inner hall."
Lu Xuan greeted him.
The two chatted for a few monts, and Lu Xuan stated his purpose.
"Senior Brother Zhang, I just recently broke through to the Foundation Establishnt stage. After learning that as an inner sect disciple, I can obtain certain cultivation resources from the sect, and being greatly interested in spiritual plants, I ca to the Agricultural Hall."
"That's indeed the case. According to the sect's rules, during the early Foundation Establishnt stage, you can obtain a seed or seedling of a fourth-grade spiritual plant, three third-grade spiritual plants, or ten second-grade spiritual plants, all within the specified range of types."
"In addition, you can also choose several thods for refining these spiritual plants. However, since refining thods are much more precious than seeds or seedlings, you can only choose one thod for refining a third-grade and three thods for refining second-grade spiritual plants."
"This is the benefit for inner sect disciples..."
Lu Xuan was deeply moved in his heart. Fourth-grade spiritual plants and refining thods for third-grade spiritual plants – how many spirit stones would that cost?
Seeing him silent, the young cultivator continued, "If Senior Brother Lu advances to the mid Foundation Establishnt stage, you can obtain the sa quantity of spiritual plants and refining thods. This continues in the later stages of Foundation Establishnt."
Lu Xuan couldn't help but take a cold breath. His sense of belonging to the sect suddenly beca stronger than ever.
He tried to calm his thoughts and asked the young cultivator, "Senior Brother Zhang, I have another question. Will similar resources be effective in other cultivation techniques?"
"It's generally limited to a specific category. Senior Brother Lu can refer to it and choose the cultivation resources that he desires."
"For example, in alchemy, you can choose several alchemical thods and so rare alchemy ingredients, with an overall value similar to that of spiritual plants."
"Most fellow disciples specialize in only one type of cultivation technique. Therefore, they usually choose corresponding cultivation resources. Over ti, it becos an unwritten rule."
"If Senior Brother wants resources from both spiritual plants and alchemy, it's possible, but it will be much more troubleso."
Lu Xuan nodded, showing his understanding.
If resources in alchemy, artifact refining, formation talismans, and puppet crafting were provided equally to Foundation Establishnt cultivators, the sect would go bankrupt.
"Senior Brother Zhang, I have a deep affection for spiritual plants, and my decision is firm. I won't consider resources from other categories. Please introduce to the situation of spiritual plants."
"You can apply for these spiritual seeds here, and Senior Brother can choose freely."
Zhang Ce took out a thick jade booklet. On the booklet were recorded over a hundred types of spiritual plants, with the quantity of second-grade plants ranging from the most to the least fourth-grade. Moreover, there were also certain restrictions on the types.
Lu Xuan, continuously flipping through and comparing, slowly made his decision.
"Senior Brother Zhang, I would like to apply for a fourth-grade Earth Fire Heart Lotus seed."
He pointed to a slowly rotating fiery red lotus flower and said to the young cultivator.
The lotus roots were light red, with dense and delicate patterns. At first glance, one would think that the roots were condensed from countless irregular light red crystals.
The leaves were red like fire, with faint flows of red magma between the leaf veins.
After making a fortune from the Thousand Dragon Lake last ti, Lu Xuan had considered this Earth Fire Heart Lotus seed, but because he couldn't satisfy the condition of planting it in scorching magma, he ultimately chose the fourth-grade Swordvine.
Now, within the inner part of the mountain peak, there was a magma river, providing sufficient conditions for planting this fourth-grade Earth Fire Heart Lotus.
"It's possible."
The young cultivator glanced at it, saw the illuminated pattern of the Earth Fire Heart Lotus on the jade booklet, and nodded.
"For the third-grade spiritual plant... I'll choose the sa
type, Moonlit Grass."
Lu Xuan flipped through the jade booklet, pointing to one of the illuminated patterns.
A quiet grass appeared on the booklet. The grass was silver-white, as if a layer of faint moonlight spilled on it, revealing a sense of mistiness.
The annotation below the Moonlit Grass stated that, when mature, it was extrely suitable for feeding demonic beasts, accelerating their growth. This greatly excited Lu Xuan.
Cultivating the Moonlit Grass itself could earn light orbs as a reward. If used to feed demonic beasts, it could better attach itself to the thigh of the Profound White Phoenix and accelerate the acquisition of light orbs from other demonic beasts being raised.
It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
