Chapter 301: The Angler
High atop a rocky cliff.
Sword lights danced in the air, seamlessly connecting each move, as if they were born that way.
"Senior Lu!"
Song Yun, holding a flying sword, came to Lu Xuan's side, looking at him with anticipation.
"Well done. Your swordsmanship has improved these days. It seems that your exploration of the Boundless Sea some time ago has had a significant impact on your sword cultivation."
Lu Xuan nodded gently, praising.
"I owe much to your guidance, Senior. Many obscure aspects have become clear to me, and progress from external training naturally follows."
Song Yun said respectfully.
Half a month ago, he had joined the team of the Song Family to hunt sea beasts and explore the outer sea, using this opportunity to verify the abilities he had gained by Lu Xuan's side.
Upon his return, his sword cultivation had visibly improved, much to Lu Xuan's satisfaction.
"While my guidance has certainly helped, what's more important is your own comprehension and tempering."
He looked at the still youthful Song Yun and said gently.
Song Yun nodded, taking it to heart.
"Oh, Senior Lu, there will be a rare large-scale auction on Aurora Island in the near future. Would you like to attend?"
"Oh? An auction? What's the occasion?"
Lu Xuan asked curiously.
"Aurora Island is the largest island among the nearby archipelagoes. There's a Aurora Merchant Association on the island, organized by many powerful forces and high-level cultivators from the island. They conduct business covering every corner of the cultivation world."
Song Yun explained enthusiastically.
"It's said that this auction will feature many excellent items, high-grade spiritual tools, elixirs, talismans, as well as carefully cultivated top-grade merfolk with appearances and figures no less than those of human female cultivators, among other things."
"There are also high-grade rare spirit plants and sea beasts obtained from the Boundless Sea, and it's said that there will be high-grade spiritual fluids sourced from the deep sea."
"High-grade spiritual fluids?"NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
Lu Xuan's interest was piqued. One of the main reasons he had come to the Empty Abyss Island in the first place was for the possibility of high-grade spiritual fluids.
The dragon bone grass seedlings he had brought from the bottom of the Thousand Dragon Lake required high-grade spiritual fluids to nourish during their growth.
And on the Empty Abyss Island, the probability of encountering high-grade spiritual fluids was much higher than elsewhere.
Sure enough, after only a few months on the island, he heard news about high-grade spiritual fluids from Song Yun.
"Well, I've been a bit bored on the island these days. It's a good opportunity to go out and relax."
Outside the hall, many cultivators looked at Lu Xuan, who was personally greeted by the president, and discussed among themselves.
Led by the middle-aged cultivator and two beautiful girls, Lu Xuan arrived at a luxurious private room.
Incense was burning in the room, filling it with a intoxicating fragrance.
The floor was covered with the hide of a demonic beast, giving one the feeling of walking on clouds.
As soon as Lu Xuan sat down, a member of the association came in with spiritual fruits and spirit tea.
Then, one after another, people came to visit him.
Because of Lu Xuan's distinguished status as a disciple of the Sky Sword Sect and his mysterious demeanor, many cultivators were eager to meet him, like fish swimming upstream, one wave after another.
Under Song Yun's screening, the cultivators allowed into his room were all at least at the high-level Qi refining stage, occasionally there would be a local Foundation Establishment cultivator coming to meet Lu Xuan.
In this way, many troubles were invisibly avoided, making Lu Xuan much quieter.
Just as he was about to rest with his eyes closed, a handsome young man walked in casually.
The young man's cultivation was comparable to Lu Xuan's, and he exuded a lazy demeanor in his every move.
"Senior Lu, it's finally nice to meet you today."
The young man sat down casually, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth, and said to Lu Xuan.
"And you are?"
"I have a similar background to you, also from a sect. I came here to guard an island."
"Unlike you, who comes from the Sky Sword Sect, I come from the Stone Mountain Sect. You can just call me Shi Zhong."
"So it's Brother Shi, I've heard of you."
Lu Xuan greeted him with a cupped fist.
Although he had been staying at the Sky Sword Sect and had very few outings, he still had some basic knowledge of the cultivation world.
The Stone Mountain Sect was as famous as the Sky Sword Sect, specializing in talisman crafting.
"Senior Lu, you're too mysterious. You've been here on the Empty Abyss Island for so long, but this is the first time you've shown yourself to outsiders."
"I'm sorry, but that's just my nature. I'm not good at dealing with people and prefer to raise some flowers and plants."
Lu Xuan said.
"What's so good about taking care of spiritual plants? Just plant them and let them grow."
"You'd be better off coming with me to fish for rare sea beasts in the deep sea of the Boundless Sea."
