Chapter 383: Increasing Efforts
After exchanging for two large and one small mutated Arrow Vines from Fang Qing, Lu Xuan continued to observe other mutated spirit plants, picking out a few whose value obviously surpassed that of the mutated Dragon Pattern Wood.
"Alright, let's exchange these. These are the mutated spirit plants that Daoist Fang requires."
Lu Xuan took out more than ten mutated Dragon Pattern Woods and handed them to Fang Qing.
"I wish Daoist Fang and all the fellow Daoists from the Divine Peaks Sect could gain a comprehensive understanding of these mutated spirit plants soon."
He offered his blessings with a smile, exchanging for seven mutated Flowing Fire Woods, three mutated Arrow Vines, and several other mutated spirit plants from Fang Qing.
The gentle young man could hardly contain his joy as he accepted the mutated Dragon Pattern Woods.
"In terms of swordsmanship, the Divine Peaks Sect is far inferior to your Sky Sword Sect, but when it comes to the cultivation of spirit plants, you are not even close."
He silently apologized to Lu Xuan in his heart.
"Daoist Lu, if your sect's cultivators bring back such mutated spirit plants in the future, you can send them all here for exchange with our Divine Peaks Sect."
Fang Qing looked at Lu Xuan as if seeing a fat sheep ready to be sheared.
"Sure, sure. I will definitely come to look for Daoist Fang."
Lu Xuan met Fang Qing's gaze with a sincere tone.
Both showed eager smiles, reluctantly parting ways.
Upon returning to the Sky Sword Sect's camp, Lu Xuan immediately took out all the mutated spirit plants, planted them in spiritual soil, and confined them with restrictions to prevent them from attacking randomly.
After handling all this, he took out the mutated Arrow Vine seedling.
"I didn't expect this exchange of mutated spirit plants to bring such a pleasant surprise."
A hint of joy appeared on his face.
He had already tested that mature or nearly mature spirit plants were of little use to him; even after cultivating them for a while, he could not harvest any luminous orb rewards.
Only by planting spirit seeds or young seedlings and nurturing them to maturity could he obtain a white luminous orb.
"Although this mutated Arrow Vine was exchanged with resources from the sect, given the number of mutated spirit plants I have discovered and explored in the sect and the blessed land, applying for this Arrow Vine seedling should not be a problem."
Lu Xuan thought to himself. His spiritual power surged, subtly altering the structure of the dark red spiritual soil beneath his feet, incorporating the mutated Arrow Vine seedling into it.
"The mutated Arrow Vine, a tier-four spirit plant..."
"During its growth, it requires the assistance of a botanist to guide the condensation of arrow-shaped spiritual power, producing arrow-shaped spiritual fruits. Once mature, it can serve as a natural bow and arrow magical artifact, with the vine as the bow and the fruits as the arrows."
"Growing in special spiritual soil and spiritual aura environments, prolonged exposure may lead to unknown changes in the spirit plant."
After a brief rest, Huo Lin'er approached Lu Xuan.
"Daoist Lu, I heard in the camp that you've been exchanging your mutated spirit plants with the other two sects recently?"
Huo Lin'er's youthful face looked very serious.
"Indeed."
Lu Xuan openly admitted, as this was no secret in the camp, and he had prepared for the front-line fellow disciples to find out.
"Could Daoist Lu give me an explanation? So I can account to Uncle Gu?"
Huo Lin'er asked quietly, maintaining respect for Lu Xuan, who, despite being only at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, managed the sect's rear operations during the blessed land's development, indicating his high status.
"Please look, Fire Senior Brother."
Without hesitation, Lu Xuan approached a restrained mutated Flowing Fire Wood, unlocking it and probing with his spiritual power.
The flames on the surface of the mutated spirit plant shook violently, and the slender fire snakes on the leaves scattered and then slowly gathered at a specific part of the plant.
"Hmm?"
As someone born with a fire spirit constitution, Huo Lin'er quickly noticed the anomaly on the Flowing Fire Wood.
His bright red robe billowed, and pure white flames surged from his palm, wrapping around his hand as he gently inserted it into the trunk of the Flowing Fire Wood.
Pulling his hand back, he held a fire essence that looked like a fiery red crystalline diamond between his fingers.
"This mutated spirit plant actually conceals such a treasure as fire essence, and even I failed to detect it."
Huo Lin'er looked interestedly at the fire essence in his hand.
"This fire essence is completely integrated with the spirit plant, requiring separate condensation to be detectable."
"Moreover, Senior Brother has been focusing on how to deal with the demonic beasts and evil spirits in the blessed land, unlike me, who has devoted myself entirely to studying and experimenting with these mutated spirit plants, which is how I fortuitously discovered the existence of this fire essence."
Lu Xuan explained.
"By the way, Fire Senior Brother, this mutated spirit plant was acquired through exchange."
"Is that so?"
Huo Lin'er chuckled, no longer as serious as before.
"Then please, Daoist Lu, intensify your efforts and exchange for as many as possible."
