“It’s no surprise for disciples from sects to be so generous!”
Upon hearing the compensation offered by the girl in the red dress, Lu Xuan expressed his amazement internally.
Although the Red Cloud Pine Nut he gave to the four-eyed monster was of superior quality, which was worth much more than an ordinary pine nut.
However, no matter how high its value, it was still only a first-grade spiritual plant material. Its price was cheaper than a first-grade magical instrument or elixir. Receiving a first-grade magical instrument alone would earn him quite a bit of spirit stones, not to mention the three first-grade Yuan Cultivating Pills.
However, he was not interested in magical instruments or elixirs.
There were many first and second-grade spirit plants in his spirit field. The reward value of any mature first-grade spirit plant wouldn’t be less than that of a first-grade magical instrument. As for the Yuan Cultivating Pills, he already had two bottles of them in his storage bag, so he was naturally not interested.
“The magical instrument and elixir you’ve offered for compensation are indeed valuable, but they are not what I currently need.”
Lu Xuan gracefully declined.
“I am not a big fan of cultivation and am obsessed with cultivating spiritual plants. If you have suitable spiritual seeds, or any methods of cultivating spiritual plants, or related scriptures, that would be best.”
“Spiritual seeds? Methods?”
The girl in red dress pondered with her head down. She usually cultivated technique and formula methods bitterly and had never involved herself in the path of spiritual plants, let alone carrying any spiritual seeds with her.
The formula methods she practiced were mostly focused on offense, and she had never thought of the low-level spell that could cultivate spiritual plants.
“I have it!”
She took out a dark yellow book from her storage bag.
■■This book is ’Common Spiritual Plants and Their Handling Methods.’ It records more than a hundred common low-grade spiritual plants in the cultivation world, as well as related harvesting methods, storage methods, etc.”
“I feared I might miss some spiritual medicine, so I kept it in my storage bag all the time. I didn’t expect it to be useful today.”
The girl in the red dress stuck out her tongue a little embarrassingly, seeing
the confused look on Lu Xuan’s face, she went on.
■■It’s just some basic knowledge in here without touching any sect’s secrets. You
can read it at ease.”
“Good, thank you, my friend.”
Lu Xuan quickly responded. As a lone cultivator, he had almost no foundation in spiritual plants. The fact that he could come this far was entirely due to his control over the real-time status of the spiritual plants in the spirit field and the extra rewards from the white light cluster.
This spirit plant scripture would be the most basic thing for any sect monk, but for Lu Xuan, it was vital, as it could effectively fill in gaps in his related knowledge.
The value of the dark yellow book could not be measured directly in spirit stones, but one thing was certain, it was worth far more than the Red Cloud Pine nut he offered.
After Lu Xuan took the dark yellow book, the girl in the red dress finally relaxed. She glared fiercely at the four-eyed monster who sneaked out to ask for spirit fruit, and started chatting casually with Lu Xuan while looking around.
She was a bit curious about Lu Xuan, who was able to cultivate superior quality
Red Cloud Pine Nuts.
Over the spirit field in the backyard, thick white fog spread out, blocking the exploration of the red girl’s spiritual sense.
“Friend Lu, your fog formation is quite sophisticated, it can even block my spiritual sense.”
She casually glanced at the Hidden Fog Maze Array, then withdrew her spiritual sense. After all, Lu Xuan, the owner of the spirit field, was in front of her, and she shouldn’t exceed the bounds of etiquette.
“I have no choice, my cultivation level is average, and all my wealth is in the spirit field. In order to preserve my property, I had to buy this second-grade defense formation.”
“Besides, there was an outbreak of demon envoy in the market a while ago, which is also a major reason why I had to buy it.”
Lu Xuan said with a faint smile.
“That’s how the market is, cultivators’ safety isn’t guaranteed well.” ■■However, with your skills of cultivating spirit plants, Friend Lu, you might want to consider joining a sect.”
“The sect can provide you with an environment for you to cultivate plants at ease, providing numerous kinds of spiritual seeds, enriched spiritual energy of the spirit vein. The top-rated great sects even have Cave Heaven Blessed Lands which are very suitable for spirit plant masters like you, Friend Lu.”
“I’m just an ordinary loose cultivator, how could any sect possibly take me in? Lu Xuan said self-deprecatingly. He couldn’t help but yearn for what the girl in the red dress had said.
In Linyang Market, there were only a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and growing a third-grade Spirit Plant was pretty much the limit for Lu Xuan.
With conventional methods, he estimated he could only grow plants similar to the Clear and Wonderful Spirit Tea provided by ‘Bai Cao Tang’. He would need to find higher-grade Spirit Seeds himself.
It was only in the Sect that there was an opportunity to obtain rare Spirit Seeds and grow higher-grade Spirit Plants.
He took the opportunity to ask the red-clad girl about the method of joining the Sect. After conversing for a while, the red-clad girl happily left with her four-eyed monster.
Lu Xuan didn’t take out the five remaining Red Cloud Pine Nuts in his storage bag. The girl didn’t have anything he wanted in her possession, so he planned to wait for the right price and see if he could get something later.
He put the yellowish book into his storage bag, and began looking around the Spirit Field, meticulously cultivating Spirit Plants.
“Kid Lu? Are you at home?”
Suddenly, ‘Manager He’s’ loud voice came from outside the courtyard.
“You’re here! What wind blew you this way?”
A hint of a smile appeared on Lu Xuan’s face as he yelled back, hurriedly stepping forward to open the door and let the skinny old man into the yard. To Lu Xuan’s surprise, following ‘Manager He’ was the Granddaughter of the Foundation Establishment Alchemist, He Yuntong.
“Taoist friend He.”
He greeted aloud.
“Friend Lu, I’m sorry to trouble you today, but we have come here to ask for a favor.”
He Yuntong said with a smile, and Lu Xuan noticed that her attitude was much more earnest and enthusiastic than the previous two encounters.
“I wonder what I can help Taoist friends with?”
“Kid Lu, did you manage to cultivate a Red Cloud Pine with decent quality?
The elder next to her put down his Spiritual Tea and asked.
“That is indeed the case.”
Lu Xuan acknowledged.
“Does Taoist friend still have any good or superior quality pine nuts in his possession?”
He Yuntong hurriedly asked, her expression filled with anticipation.
After the red-clad girl returned to the Wang Family’s garden and talked with everyone, she learned that the girl had received a Red Cloud Pine Nut from Lu Xuan.
Taking note of it, she returned to ‘Bai Cao Tang’ and made ‘Manager He accompany her to Lu’s place, hoping to acquire the other Red Cloud Pine Nuts from him to give to the red-clad girl, in order to establish a good relationship. Seeing her hopeful expression, Lu Xuan thought for a moment and took three Red Cloud Pine Nuts from his storage bag.
“Two of them are of superior quality, and this one is of perfect grade? A look of astonishment came over He Yuntong’s round eyes as she exclaimed with surprise.
The lean old man beside her looked at Lu Xuan, a look of satisfaction in his
eyes.
“What do you want?”
He Yuntong quickly composed herself and quietly asked Lu Xuan.
With Lu Xuan taking out three Red Cloud Pine Nuts, two of superior quality and one perfect, He Yuntong immediately understood Lu Xuan’s intention to make a trade.
“I want the Spirit Seed Condensing Method for two types of Spirit Seeds, one for Spirit Firefly Grass Seed, and any other First Grade Spirit Seed.”
Lu Xuan said solemnly, his tone firm.
Although he didn’t manage to get anything related to Spirit Plants from the red-clad girl, it is not necessarily the same case with He Yuntong. From what he understood, ‘Bai Cao Tang’ had several Spirit Seed Condensing Methods and these were what he had been yearning for all along..
