Chapter 653: "Netherworld True Water Prohibition Law
“What a pity there are no more places like the Sword Pool where high-rank Sword Grass Spirit Seeds are produced,”
Lu Xuan looked at the two five-grade Sword Grass that had been fully nourished, with a hint of regret in his voice.
These two five-grade Sword Grass of his had their Spirit Seeds nourished by the Sky Sword Sect’s Sword Pool. After coming to the Liyang Region, even though he had the chance to acquire more high-rank Spiritual Seeds, the prospect of obtaining more high-rank Sword Grass Spirit Seeds had become considerably difficult.
“Jindan Cultivators can travel through various realms in the heavens. Once my power grows stronger and I collect more Light Clusters, I can try visiting the Dongxuan Sword Sect, seeing old acquaintances, and maybe scrounge up one or two high-rank Sword Grass Spirit Seeds.”
“After all, I am a disciple of a branch clan of the Sky Sword Sect, and with such incense flame sentiment, it shouldn’t be too difficult to acquire.”
He thought to himself as he continued to inspect the Spirit Field, checking the detailed status of the numerous Spirit Plants.
In the days that followed, since the Heavenly Star Cave increased its patrol intensity, the silhouette of that fat Evil Cultivator never appeared near the Cave Abode again, allowing Lu Xuan to enjoy an extended period of peace and fulfillment.
While remaining vigilant, his mind was almost entirely focused on the many Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts.
One day, as he was watching the Fat Bird frolicking with a group of Spirit Beasts, a gentle female voice came from outside the Cave Abode.
“Friend Lu, are you in the Cave Abode? This humble girl is passing by and has come to pay you a visit.”
Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Lu Xuan’s mind conjured the image of Hermit Yu Lin he had met in the Blackwater Asterism Cave, who also happened to be a Spirit Plant Master. He had a deep impression of her, having gained some experience in cultivating Spiritual Plants from their conversation.
“So it’s Hermit Yu Lin. I apologize for not greeting you from a distance; I hope you’ll forgive me.”
Lu Xuan quickly rose to his feet and went out to greet her.
“It’s no trouble at all. I was just passing by this area and I remembered Friend Lu was nearby. On a whim, I thought I’d drop by for a visit,” said Hermit Yu Lin in her soft voice.
“This way, my friend,” Lu Xuan invited, leading her into the Cave Abode and offering the Spiritual Fruit Spiritual Tea he had personally cultivated and brewed.
“At that time, you mentioned that you cultivated several kinds of Spirit Fruits that could be snacked on. Seeing them today, they indeed taste wonderful.”
“This Spirit Brew is even more rare and unusual. It seems to cleanse the impurities within the body, not inferior to some similar treasure items.”
Hermit Yu Lin sipped on the Jade Wash Spirit Dew carefully, nodding continuously with a look of appreciation in her eyes.
“You flatter me,” Lu Xuan said modestly.
“I am but tampering with related items in a random manner daily while keeping company with Spirit Plants in the Cave Abode.”
“I’m not worried about safety; it’s just that I’ve only recently achieved Core Formation, and my inner spiritual power has yet to completely stabilize.”
“I’ve been focusing on cultivating spiritual plants and haven’t acquired any high-rank magic artifacts, nor have I mastered any powerful formula methods. If I were to go along, I would surely hold back the others, so I must apologize.”
Lu Xuan tactfully declined.
“That’s a pity. With Friend Lu joining, our strength would be significantly enhanced,” Hermit Yu Lin said with a tone of regret, not insisting further.
Lu Xuan’s words might hold truth, but after all, as a Jindan cultivator, even newly advanced, he represented remarkable combat power.
She sat in Lu Xuan’s cave mansion for about two hours, exchanging cultivation experiences on nurturing spiritual plants. When she sensed her companions arriving nearby, she bid Lu Xuan farewell and left.
Lu Xuan watched her leave, sweeping over the surroundings of his cave mansion with his spiritual sense. He opened the two major fifth-grade formations and returned to the spirit field.
He went to the Underworld Area where many weird spiritual plants were planted. As soon as he entered, a thick Yin Qi assault him, mixed with the wailing of resentful spirits and the gnawing sound of bones, resembling a purgatory of the living world.
Already accustomed to such scenes, Lu Xuan observed the state of each weird spiritual plant with an undisturbed expression.
“The Underworld Spring Flower has fully matured!” He noticed that the transparent progress bar below the Underworld Spring Flower was completely filled and rejoiced in his heart.
In the Resentful Spirit Mud, the dark and serene Underworld Spring Flower stood alone. A slender black river trailed up from its roots, constantly branching out into tiny streams that spread to every leaf. The pure and thick Yin Qi flowed slowly like a spring. Listening closely, one could faintly hear mournful whimpering sounds.
Lu Xuan carefully uprooted it from the Resentful Spirit Mud, focusing his consciousness on it.
[Underworld Spring Flower, a fifth-grade spirit plant, cultivated with Yin attribute spirit soil and spirit spring. The matured flower contains a trace of Underworld Power, which can be used to aid in the cultivation of relevant techniques and divine abilities or for creating some special high-grade elixirs.]
The detailed information about the Underworld Spring Flower appeared in his mind.
He temporarily stored the dark and mysterious flower, but his attention was entirely captured by a white light cluster on the spirit soil.
“A fifth-grade evil strange spirit plant. I wonder what reward the light cluster will yield.”
Lu Xuan looked forward with anticipation, lightly touching the surface of the light cluster.
The light cluster dissolved into countless tiny specks of light, which instantly coalesced into the spectral image of a tome, rapidly entering Lu Xuan’s body.
As the spectral image vanished, a thought flashed through his mind.
[Harvested one Underworld Spring Flower of fifth-grade. Obtained a sixth-grade technique”Hell True Water Prohibition Law”.]
