“Before we start the formal teaching, I would like to correct a misconception you may have,” said Lu Xuan, looking at those below.
“Everyone here is an outstanding talent, inherently gifted, and as such, you may not regard Spirit Plants highly.”
“You might plant a plant or two occasionally, more as a source of Spirit Stones
or alchemy materials.”
“Once planted, you’ll give little care to them, leaving them to grow or wither on
their own.”
Lu Xuan spoke frankly, garnering agreement from many in the crowd who nodded, affirming his statement.
“Indeed, as a cultivator, improving your cultivation level and personal strength
is always your top priority.”
“Yet, the importance of Spirit Plant isn’t inferior to the cultivation skills of alchemy and tool refining.”
“Quite a few people have this misconception-Spirit Plants only serve as alchemy materials and have no other use.”
“In reality, they can also serve as materials for crafting Flying Swords or other
Magic Artifacts.”
Lu Xuan took a piece of Copper Bone Bamboo from his storage bag and shook it in front of the crowd.
“It can also be used in the creation of charms and, even be a Magic Artifact
itself.”
A green mottled gourd suspended from his waist. With the gourd opening facing downwards, distinctive sounds of sword energy shot out from it, forming a sword silhouette as it swirled around Lu Xuan.
The appearance of the third- grade Sword Nurturing Gourd subtly shifted the perception of many cultivators present.
“The process of cultivating Spirit Plants can improve your delicate ability to control Spiritual Energy and deepen your understanding of various formula methods.”
“Lastly, Sky Sword Sect is famous for its swords. The status of the Sword Hall surpasses all others due to a Spirit Plant called Sword Grass, which is the foundation of the sect.”
“If you want to be admitted to the Sword Hall, you need an in-depth understanding of Spirit Plants, especially cultivating Sword Grass.”
Lu Xuan explained indulgently.
The expressions of the numerous Outer Sect Disciples below gradually changed, and their views towards Spirit Plants started to alter.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan secretly nodded.
‘He who takes the king’s shilling, does the king’s bidding.’ Considering he accepted two hundred Sword Marks from the Sishen Hall Master Shen Ye, he ought to carry out his duty and pass on knowledge about Spirit Plants well.
He needed to correct the prevalent cultivator prejudices towards Spirit Plants first.
“Once you understand the importance of Spirit Plants, I will move on to the cultivation methods associated with them.”
“Rich and pure Spiritual Energy in our sect, along with fertile Spirit Fields, are very conducive to the growth of Spirit Plants.
“And as a Spirit Plant Master, there are only two factors that contribute to better growth of a Spirit Plant.”
“First, grasp the fundamental technique of cultivating spirit plants, such as the
Spirit Rain Technique, Tree Life Spell, and Earth Pulling Technique.” As Lu Xuan spoke, with a single thought, a light drizzle of Spiritual Rain descended in front of him within a radius of half a foot. Afterwards, the rain became larger, transitioning into a torrential Spirit Rain, confined to this specific area.
After numerous years of planting Spirit Plants, this Spirit Rain Technique he used most often had reached the Grandmaster Realm.
Whether it was the speed of execution, range of the technique, or the intensity of the rain, everything was under his control.
The Outer Sect Disciples below, upon seeing this, gasped in admiration.
“Don’t underestimate these foundational techniques. Once they reach a certain realm, they can benefit you immensely.”
No sooner had Lu Xuan spoken than a golden light streaked overhead, causing everyone to look up, before deftly circled back around to him.
Everyone then saw that it was a golden Sword Qi.
“Even the ‘Golden Sword Technique’, which is usually used for killing insects, can be heavily threatening to a High-tier Qi Cultivator once it reaches a profound level.”
“Also, upon mastering the Earth Pulling Technique, one can effortlessly transform the terrain of mountains and rivers.
The Tree Life Spell can assist in controlling the plants in the surrounding area during cultivation, and moreover, accelerate the growth of Spirit Plants at the fastest speed.”
A Spirit Seed, small as a little arrow, appeared in his hand, and a faint crack quietly emerged on the ground.
The Spirit Seed was put into the crack, and a thick green light shot onto the
Spirit Seed.
Soon, a vine growing more than ten green little arrows rapidly formed, almost maturing in less than half a moment.
From the vine, a three-inch little arrow shot forward, deeply piercing the surface of the ground and embedding itself in the rock.
This vine, known as the Arrow Vine, is a first-grade attacking Spirit Plant. Lu Xuan acquired its Spirit Seed by chance but didn’t attempt to plant it because the reward from the light cluster would be significantly reduced due to the considerable difference in grades.
During the maturation process induced by the Tree Life Spell, he specifically added a little bit of Qingmu Origin Energy, which resulted in such a favorable effect.
“Secondly, treat every Spirit Plant equally.”
“All things have spirits; naturally, Spirit Plants are no exception. The higher the grade of the Spirit Plants, the stronger their Spiritual Nature.
“Spend more time during the cultivation process to perceive the emotions of the Spirit Plants, thereby exploring their habits, preferences and so on. “In this way, you can more easily grow Spirit Plants and have a higher possibility of obtaining high-quality Spirit Fruits.
As soon as Lu Xuan finished speaking, the Demonic Vine that had been hiding in his sleeve quietly crawled out, its touch-like grey vines, full of curiosity, looked at the people below from all angles.
“This is the high-grade Spirit Plant I was talking about, which is basically similar to a Demon Beast.”
Lu Xuan gently touched one end of the Demonic Vine and said.
“a Spirit Plant that can move freely!”
“I don’t know what grade it is, but it has to be at least a fourth grade Spirit
Plant, right?!”
“Such cute tendrils, I really want a Spirit Plant like this!
The people below were discussing as they watched the Demonic Vine trying to shrink back into Lu Xuan’s sleeve.
“Alright, I have said everything that needed to be said. Next, I will explain the cultivation methods of many common Spirit Plants to all you fellow Sect members.”
Lu Xuan gently pressed the Demonic Vine hidden in his sleeve and calmly said. He came from a wild background. Before joining the Sky Sword Sect, he did not have a comprehensive knowledge framework, he planted what he found, and his understanding of Spirit Plants was limited to what he planted.
After joining the Sect, he immediately went to the Scripture Treasury Pavilion and exchanged for various books about cultivating Spirit Plants, studying day and night and memorising all the knowledge inside.
Even up to now, he believed that his understanding of Spirit Plants was among the best in the Sect.
Even for the rare Spirit Seeds he never planted, as long as he finds an opportunity to put them into soil, no matter how high the grade or rare the variety, all is plain-sighted to him.
That’s his biggest confidence in coming to teach this class.
“After teaching, it is time to solve doubts.”
“If any of you fellow Sect members have any questions, or encounter any „ difficulties in the cultivation of Spirit Plants, you can come to me directly.” “I will be in the Hall of Transference the whole day today. You can come and ask me anything.”
“If you cannot accurately describe the state of the Spirit Plant, you can also bring the whole Spirit Plant directly to me, and I’ll examine and solve it on the spot.”
Lu Xuan smiled and said, full of confidence.
“Uncle Lu, why do my Spirit Plants always bloom but bear no fruit?” “Uncle, there is a mutant Spirit Plant in my Spirit Field, could you please examine it for me?”
“Uncle, I have no problem. I just came over to ask if I could touch that cute vine-type Spirit Plant from earlier.”
