You Cultivate, I Farm Chapter 691: Black Metal Wood

The Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath had always been placed in the courtyard, with various flying swords inserted into it from ti to ti, nurturing the swords’ bodies.

Although the thickest Peacock King Sword was no longer there, there were still many swords entering the sword array, such as the Wind-Thunder Sword with its special lightning attributes. Hence, the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath was still quite content, hopelessly indulged in the harem of flying swords.

Occasionally, Lu Xuan would also insert Ordinary Sword Grass Spirit Seeds to improve and obtain higher rank Spiritual Seeds.

However, despite having this idea, he would have to wait until the Sword Nurturing Gourd condensed seeds. Lu Xuan was in no rush.

Ti flew by quickly while cultivating Spiritual Plants, and soon there were mature plants in the Spirit Field again.

Lu Xuan stood beside the Spirit Field where Ice Firefly Grass was planted; the deep blue, slender Spirit Grass covered the whole field, with cold air engulfing the area and a thin layer of frost condensing on the surface of the Spirit Soil.

Of the thirty-six Ice Firefly Grass plants, ten plants were planted relatively late, but under the frequent nurturing of Qingmu Origin Energy from Lu Xuan, they gradually caught up with the growth progress of the other Ice Firefly Grass plants.

Among them, the progress bars beneath four Ice Firefly Grass plants were completely filled.

“Finally, I can increase my Cultivation Level considerably.”

Lu Xuan was delighted inwardly as he carefully harvested the four Ice Firefly Grass plants.

Of them, three were of Ordinary Quality, and one was of Good Quality.

He placed the Ice Firefly Grass into an Exquisite Jade Box and imdiately his gaze fell upon four Light Clusters that had quietly appeared.

With a gentle touch, thin streaks of light coalesced into slender rivers of light that surged into his body.

[Harvesting third-grade Ice Firefly Grass, gaining five years of Cultivation Level.]

[Harvesting…]

The four Light Clusters, three of which brought rewards that increased Lu Xuan’s Cultivation Level by twenty years in one go and the other revealed a Fourth Grade Ice Soul Pill Treasure.

After the thought crossed his mind, an imnse amount of Spiritual Power appeared out of thin air in his body, surging through his limbs and bones.

Lu Xuan circulated the Mysterious Sky Clear Subtle thod, rapidly converting these Spiritual Powers into droplets of Spiritual Liquid that entered his Dantian.

“The sensation of increasing one’s Cultivation Level is indeed wonderful…”

Lu Xuan stretched lazily, his lips curving upwards.

He cald his emotions and then continued to inspect the Spirit Field, examining the detailed status of each Spiritual Plant.

“It’s ti to make a trip to Star Plucking Building.”

“This ti when I go out, I’ll ask the Branch Tower Master if there’s any suitable Spirit Wood for crafting Magic Artifacts; if there is, I’ll bring so back to my Cave Abode.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

He decided to try learning instrunt refining, but given his limited talents, he could only start with the rewards from Light Clusters.

With the experience of cultivating countless Spiritual Plants, if he plants mature Spirit Woods suitable for crafting Magic Artifacts, there’s a great chance the Light Clusters will reward him with related Treasure Items, greatly improving his instrunt refining level.

“As a Spirit Plant Master, how could I not understand crafting? How else would I succeed?”

In the field of Alchemy, thanks to the Light Group Experience Packages, he had achieved a high level of skill in crafting many types of elixirs, such as the Spirit Gathering Pill, Foundation Establishnt Pill, which had reached the Master Level, and the fourth-grade Dust Cleaning Pill, and the Desire-Bewitching Pill were between minor and great achievent.

“Anyway, the Light Cluster is an unexpected gain, and planting with a specific goal might bring pleasant surprises.”

He thought to himself.

A few days earlier, the Sea Tower Branch Trade Association had sent a Communication Talisman, asking Lu Xuan to co over and help identify and sort out so rare Spiritual Plants.

As he also needed to replenish so cultivation resources, Lu Xuan decided to make a trip out.

After dealing with the Roushan Cultivator, he no longer needed to be as cautious as before. After instructing the Grass Puppet, he activated two top fifth-grade formations and arrived inside Star Plucking Building.

As soon as he stepped into the Sea Tower Chamber of Comrce, the pretty Servant waiting at the entrance imdiately bowed with respect.

“Senior Lu, you’ve arrived.”

There was a slight tremble within the Servant’s welco, as the Cultivator before her not only possessed strength out of her reach in the Nascent Soul Stage, but also had a prestigious identity as a specially invited Guest Elder of the Sea Tower Chamber of Comrce. A re word from him could determine her future and even life or death; she was afraid that any mishap would displeasure him.

“No need for formalities,”

Lu Xuan nodded lightly, speaking gently. As the servant girl felt a sense of relief, he ascended the stairs alone.

“Senior Lu,”

Not long after he sat down, the charming and still attractive Madam Wen, carrying the scent of perfu, gracefully entered the room.

“Your timing is perfect, I have a question for you,”

Lu Xuan, seated in a comfortably cool jade chair, asked the Madam Wen.

“Please ask, senior. This junior will spare no detail in my reply,”

Madam Wen stood aside, bowing her head as she spoke.

“Does the branch currently have any kind of mature spiritual seeds suitable for refining magic artifacts?”

“I am only interested in spiritual seeds or spiritual plant seedlings, preferably of rank four or higher—fifth rank would be ideal,”

Lu Xuan said faintly.

Spirit wood suitable for refining magic artifacts was certainly plentiful, but they were of little use to him—he couldn’t claim light cluster rewards from them, let alone attain refining-related treasures.

If the grade was too low, considering his current cultivation level, the quality of any treasure he obtained from the light cluster would be further diminished. At a minimum, he needed sothing on the level of a fourth-rank spiritual plant.

Cultivating fourth-rank spiritual plants in the Nascent Soul Realm made it difficult to obtain fifth-rank treasure rewards.

Of course, he didn’t rule out the possibility that multiple light cluster rewards could be combined into fifth-rank treasures. He had, after all, had similar experiences more than once before.

“Fourth or fifth-rank spirit wood suitable for refining magic artifacts?”

Madam Wen’s mind raced.

Spirit plants were more commonly used in alchemy than in refining; for refining instrunts, spirit ores and other treasures were more frequently utilized.

Moreover, with Lu Xuan limiting the grade of the spirit plant to fourth rank or above, that drastically narrowed down the available options.

“There is indeed one type of fourth-rank spirit wood,”

“It’s called Black tal Wood, extrely hard and suitable for refining items like flying swords. It usually grows near spirit ores containing tal Elent Ore.”

“Regarding fifth rank, there are only two or three kinds of fifth-order spiritual species in the branch. If Senior Lu needs them, I can inquire with the other branches or the main headquarters,”

After a mont of recollection, Madam Wen spoke to Lu Xuan with a gentle voice.

“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Taoist friend Wen,”

“It is my duty, and an honor for this junior to do even a minor service for the senior,”

Madam Wen quickly replied.

As a Guest Elder of the Comrce Association, Lu Xuan was a full realm higher than she, and in recent years, he had demonstrated an unrivaled mastery in cultivating spiritual plants. His prospects within the Comrce Association were limitless, and Madam Wen was very willing to leave a good impression on him.

“By the way, senior, I’m not sure if you’ve heard about a certain piece of news that’s been circulating widely in the Star Plucking Building recently? It’s regarding spiritual species, and I think you might be interested,”

Before leaving, she hesitated slightly, then asked Lu Xuan.

“Oh? Go on,”

“I have been secluded in Thunder Fire Asterism Cave, so I’m not very clear on recent affairs,”

At the ntion, Lu Xuan imdiately beca curious.

“There is a family in the Liyang Region with a legacy of thousands of years that once produced a Nascent Soul True Monarch. In recent years they have declined and are not as prominent as before. The family is looking to part with a rare spiritual seed left behind by an ancestor, in exchange for useful treasures,”

“It is said that the rank of the spiritual seed could be as high as sixth grade, and it’s extrely rare and unusual,”

Madam Wen whispered.
