Chapter 370: The Dragon-Elephant Sword Talisman
Before departing from the sect, Lu Xuan planted three Sword-Nurturing Gourds in his cave dwelling. The growth of these gourds, which required the absorption of sword qi during their development, was significantly slowed due to the limited duration the second-hand flying swords placed underneath the vines could last.
Upon his return to the sect, and with the addition of free flying swords acquired from a secret realm, the famished Sword-Nurturing Gourds voraciously absorbed sword qi and sword intent, entering a rapid growth phase.
Months passed, and the gourds hanging from the vines pulsated with dense sword qi, occasionally emitting sonorous sword chimes.
Lu Xuan focused his attention on the gourds, examining their condition closely.NewW novels updates at novelhall.come are fully matured," he realized with joy.
Out of the three Sword-Nurturing Gourds, a total of fourteen cyan gourds hung, and due to Lu Xuan's division of attention between training juvenile beasts, he discovered that four gourds had fully matured.
He carefully plucked the Sword-Nurturing Gourds from the vines, and a white orb of light emerged, flickering slightly.
[Harvested a third-grade Sword-Nurturing Gourd, obtained a fourth-grade Great Sun Sword Talisman.]
A crimson talisman appeared in his palm, depicting a high-hanging sun with rays composed of endless sword qi.
"Fourth-grade Great Sun Sword Talisman, not bad at all."
The rewards within the orb did not disappoint Lu Xuan as he continued to harvest the remaining three Sword-Nurturing Gourds.
[Harvested a third-grade Sword-Nurturing Gourd, obtained a fourth-grade Starfall Sword Talisman.]
[Harvested a third-grade Sword-Nurturing Gourd, obtained a fourth-grade Great Sun Sword Talisman.]
As expected, the rewards from the orbs were all fourth-grade sword talismans.
Gently removing the last mature gourd, he touched the surface of the orb.
The orb exploded with a bang, transforming into two afterimages that surged into his body, and a new sword talisman silently appeared in his hand.
The talisman resembled a slender sword tip, with what seemed to be a dragon's phantom spiraling around it, dominating all, and inside appeared to be a giant elephant standing in the void, as stable as Mount Tai, suppressing all beings.
After harvesting a round of Enchanting Spirit Peaches, the plant bloomed with pink flowers again, enriching the pink miasma
beneath the peach tree.
Entering the miasma required constant recitation of the Purification Mantra to avoid embarrassment in front of the various spirit plants and beasts.
The Sword Grass included second-grade ordinary Sword Grass for condensing Sword Grass spirit seeds or improving the Sword Grass variety.
Third-grade Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, once mature, was not immediately harvested by Lu Xuan. Instead, he followed the spirit seed condensation methods obtained from the Sword Hall, guiding the dense vitality, plant qi, and wind and thunder sword qi within the grass to slowly condense and compress, attempting to condense Wind and Thunder Sword Grass spirit seeds.
If he could thus summarize the condensation method for variant Sword Grass spirit seeds, it would be a significant achievement, allowing him to stride confidently within the Sword Hall.
The fourth-grade Thousand Owls Sword Grass and Sword Peacock, after several months of growth, were also progressing. The Sword Peacock, particularly after Lu Xuan began to grasp sword formations, sprouted on the spirit soil's surface, its feathers seemingly composed of hundreds of hair-thin flying swords, dazzlingly brilliant.
The third-grade Hidden Essence Grass and Jade Dew Fruit commissioned by the Pill Hall had also reached a certain stage of growth.
Every dawn, nearly transparent dew could be seen on the Jade Dew Fruit plants, pristine and clear.
Additionally, several high-grade spirit plants were cultivated.
The fifth-grade Dragon Bone Grass, nourished alternately by Profound Primordial Water and Gathering Spirit Essence, began to sprout and enter the early stages of growth.
Another fifth-grade Diamond Bodhi, despite being nurtured with Soul-Inducing Incense, could barely maintain its vitality, growing slowly without the spirit seed breaking through the soil yet.
The sixth-grade Phoenix Wood, thanks to the third-grade Crimson Lotus Flames obtained from the Flame Fruit orb, faced no significant issues in its early growth stages, with the phoenix phantom inside thriving luxuriously.
When it reached a certain stage, Lu Xuan was not worried about its growth, as he frequently contemplated the Pure Yang True Fire Scroll, likely comprehending the Pure Yang True Fire divine ability in time to properly cultivate the Phoenix Wood.
Lastly, the cultivation included ordinary-grade species like the second-grade Yin Locust Tree, allowed to grow freely in a small lake, and the Purple Jade Coral.
These were the foundations of Lu Xuan's cultivation journey.
