Chapter 494: Chapter 492: Drinking Blood and Eating Meat in Large Mouthfuls_1
“Indeed, the fifth-rank sword grass spirit seeds are not like the other second and third-grade sword grasses, as we have already figured out the method of seed condensation and can obtain the spirit seeds in large quantities and stably.”
“To gain a fifth-rank sword grass spirit seed requires a specific environment and a fortuitous coincidence to produce one.”
“Within the Sword Hall, each of the Core Formation elders already has more than one fifth-rank sword grass plant. Therefore, the one currently being bred will be given to a Foundation Establishment Realm Sword Hall disciple to cultivate.”
“At present, you and the Sword Hall’s True Disciple, Sword Flawless, are the most likely candidates.”
“Among you both, one possesses a natural sword body, and their sword dao talent is dreadfully high. The other has added new varieties to the Sword Hall, which to date, only had over twenty types of third-grade sword grasses. The cultivation success rate of the sword grass is terrifyingly high.”
“Unless there are unforeseen circumstances, then it’s a competition between you, my junior brother, and the junior sister Sword Flawless.”
Shen Ye revealed everything to Lu Xuan.
“Senior Sister Sword Flawless is a true disciple, technically speaking, I shouldn’t stand a chance in this match. However, as it pertains to fifth-rank sword grass, I would like to give it a try.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile, his tone firm.
With the fifth-rank sword grass, he couldn’t help but wonder what kind of generous light cluster reward he could get, so he ought to give it a try.
“Junior brother showing such determination is excellent. It’s not yet certain who among you will win.”
“By the way, the method of condensing seeds from the Wind-Thunder Sword Grass that you previously handed over to the hall is now in the cultivation and preparation stage for condensing seeds. I believe the first successful batch will soon appear and enter the mass planting stage.”
“That puts my mind at ease.”
Upon hearing this news, Lu Xuan felt a sense of pride.
Shen Ye told Lu Xuan to wait in the room for a moment. Half a moment later, he brought out a fourth-grade Sword Peacock seedling from the depths of the Sword Hall and handed it to Lu Xuan.
“Brother Shen, if there’s news about that fifth-grade sword grass spirit seed, would you kindly inform me.”
Lu Xuan took the spirit seed, specifically requesting.
“Absolutely.”
As Lu Xuan was uncovered by Shen Ye himself, naturally he tends to favor him winning the fifth-grade sword grass spirit seed.
Returning to his cave dwelling, Lu Xuan pulled out the Sword Peacock seedling.
The seedling was like a tiny sculpture of a peacock’s fan display, with over a hundred fine, hair-thin Sword Qi feathers clearly visible. Holding it in his hand gave off a feeling of sharpness.
He seeded the Sword Peacock into the Wu Spirit Soil. The spiritual power surged, Sword Qi turned into silk, creating a subtle formation, and flowed into the seedling.
“I have to visit the Sword Hall more frequently.”
“It is not to get the fifth-rank sword grass spirit seed or the remaining several fourth-grade spirit seeds, but mainly to make a contribution to our Sword Hall fellows by helping them cultivate powerful sword implements.”
Lu Xuan thought with a thick-skinned face.
There are eight types of fourth-grade sword grass spirit seeds at the Sword Hall. He has bred a Sword Thousand Owls together with a new flavor. There are two Sword Peacocks and a Green Lotus Sword Grass in the spirit field. The remaining five kinds he has no chance of cultivating yet.
He had the idea of collecting them all in his heart.
Lu Xuan scans every part of the Spirit Field, checking the detailed conditions of all the spirit plants.
Upon encountering the conscientious and tireless Grass Puppets, don’t forget to feed them a Nascent Soul Grass Orb.
The amount of Nascent Soul Grass Bead left in his hand was not much, but he was not worried about running out. A new batch of Primordial Essence Herb was about to mature and by then he could replenish a significant amount.
One day, he drives away on his escape light, leaving the sect alone.
Finding a remote and uninhabited place, he took out the Thousand Masks, and stretching his muscles and bones, transformed into a plain-looking, tall, middle-aged cultivator.
Immediately thereafter, he quietly infiltrated Sword Gate Town.
Upon arriving at the location of the Underworld Court, he circled around the courtyard from high in the sky, his grey and white Void Nightmare Eye coldly observing everything below. Confirming that nothing was out of the ordinary, he activated the Illusion and Disappearance Five Elements Array that was set up outside the courtyard.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, a wave of cold, gloomy Yin Qi hit him in the face, causing even Lu Xuan, who had accomplished somethings in Body Refinement, to shiver involuntarily.
Following the Yin Qi, came the howling of various resentful spirits, mixed with baby cries that sounded like laughter or sobbing, and the sound of chewing on flesh and blood…
“Excellent, this environment is most suitable for the many weird spiritual plants in the courtyard.”
Lu Xuan greatly appreciated the environment of the Underworld Court. As he casually strode through the Underworld Mud Flesh and Resentful Spirit Mud, and scanned the vibrant weird spiritual plants, he felt satisfied.
Suddenly, a huge blood-red palm shot out from the Underworld Mud Flesh, quickly darted to Lu Xuan’s feet, grabbed Lu Xuan’s ankle tightly and began to suck vigorously.
Lu Xuan’s foot slightly pulsated with blood, and without heeding the thirsty Blood Spirit Palm Ginseng, he circulated his spiritual power, suppressing this strange sensation.
He arrived in front of the Fifth Grade Blood Scourge Flower, and let his Spiritual Sense pierce through the hollow blood ball formed by countless blood vessels resembling tendrils, arriving at the center of the sea of blood.
In the sea of blood were surging blood waves. In the center, a blood-colored flower bloomed wantonly, which seemed to be nurtured by countless sinful blood, giving off a sense of the evil.
Sensing Lu Xuan’s proximity, the blood-vessel-like tendrils twitched slightly, indicating their desire for fresh blood.
“Look at them, they don’t know how much more polite they are compared to you.”
“When asking for something, you need to act properly, not like this, rudely asking for food.”
Lu Xuan shook off the Blood Spirit Palm Ginseng that was clinging to his leg, took out more than a dozen bottles of Flood Dragon Essence Blood from his storage bag, and poured them all on the intertwined slender blood vessels.
The blood vessels instantly began to wriggle several times faster, greedily absorbing the Flood Dragon Essence Blood, causing a gurgling sound.
“This Fifth Grade Blood Scourge Flower has entered a rapid growth phase; the amount of demon beast essence blood it needs has increased significantly.”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim.
More than a dozen bottles of Flood Dragon Essence Blood were swallowed up in a matter of a few breaths, leaving not a drop behind. The essence was all infused into the sea of blood, making the blood-colored flower in the center even more vibrant.
“Fortunately, there’s still plenty of Flood Dragon Essence Blood I’ve previously harvested from the Thousand Dragon Lake.”
Lu Xuan took out more than a dozen bottles of Second Grade Flood Dragon Essence Blood and fed them to the Blood Scourge Flower.
During the nurturance of the Blood Scourge Flower, he noticed the pitiful Blood Spirit Palm Ginseng lying in a corner, so he tossed it two bottles as well, letting it savor to its heart’s content.
Afterwards, he took out a large amount of leftover Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood and placed it under the root of the Strange Longevity Peach, which had a milky fragrance and appeared harmless to humans and animals, allowing it to absorb the vitality within the flesh and blood.
The Thousand Worm Hands, Underworld Spring Flower, Yin Cry Wood, Saint Baby Pill, Filthy Bug Grass… he also took care of each one diligently, fulfilling their detailed needs.
Lu Xuan approached the Spirit of Flesh and threw a pile of Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood onto the dark red stone.
After waiting for a moment, numerous tiny mouths full of sharp teeth emerged from the surface of the stone. In just a few moments, all the Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood had been swallowed, leaving not even a tiny morsel behind.
As he focused his mind on this cultivating Spirit of Flesh, Lu Xuan immediately noticed the unborn Little Mischievous Pest’s extreme longing for flesh.
[I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!]
One thought echoed repeatedly in his mind.
“Children get harder to raise as they grow.”
First, the Blood Sin Flower, which had entered a rapid growth period, has a significantly increased need for essence blood and following that, the yet to be born Spirit of Flesh, which is probably nearing its birth, has a likewise drastically increased need for flesh. This made Lu Xuan somewhat worried.
