Chapter 123: Chapter 121: The Mystery of Sword Grass 1

Translator: 549690339      —

“Sword Nurturing Gourds are among third-grade spiritual plants primarily used for offense, they’re so rare.”

This was the lament in Lu Xuan’s heart.

Spiritual plants are generally used as the main material for alchemy, and there are some that can be directly ingested to enhance a cultivator’s spiritual power expel evil spirits, and heal injuries. A small portion can also be used as materials to refine charms and magical artifacts.

The Sword Nurturing Gourd, which is inherently strong in offense, is extremely rare.

“May I ask senior brother, how many sword marks do I need to exchange for a seed of the Sword Nurturing Gourd?”

Lu Xuan asked the old farmer monk.

“Ninety sword marks.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

When he was at the Linyang Market, a few third-grade spiritual seeds were also being sold in the Wanbao Building, and their prices were all not less than two to three hundred spiritual stones.

Furthermore, they were all relatively ordinary and common varieties. If a seed like the Sword Nurturing Gourd was for sale, Lu Xuan estimated that it would be difficult to buy one even with five hundred spiritual stones.

This is the advantage of being backed by a Great Sect.

As long as you have enough sword marks, all sorts of high-grade, rare and precious spiritual seeds are within reach.

Lu Xuan took out ninety sword marks and gave them to the old farmer monk. After a short while, the monk came out from the inner hall and handed Lu Xuan a Sword Nurturing Gourd spirit seed.

The spirit seed was light green in color, flat and elongated, about one and a half inches long. At first glance, it looked like a miniature sword.

“Thank you, senior brother.”

Lu Xuan carefully took the seed and put it into his storage bag.

“By the way, senior brother, before joining the sect, I happened to hear the sect mention a very awesome and powerful spiritual plant called Sword Grass. Why didn’t I find it in these jade books?”

He asked the old farmer monk.

“Sword Grass… It’s not something that can be obtained simply by exchanging sword marks. There are also identity requirements. Only Inner Sect Disciples have the privilege to plant it.”

“Even though it’s only a second-grade, but the difficulty of planting it is higher than ordinary third-grade, not to mention its rarity.”

“More importantly, the Sword Grass involves many secrets of the sect It is an Innate Sword Instrument and under the cultivation of the sword cultivators and spirit plant masters of the sect through generations, it gave rise to third-grade and fourth-grade spiritual plants like the Sword Peacock and Sword Crow, which clearly demonstrates its importance.”

“Although junior brother Lu excels in the path of spiritual plants and has begun to cultivate the third-grade Sword Nurturing Gourd, if you want to plant Sword Grass, you still need to wait for a while, until you become an Inner Sect Disciple, only then will you have the qualification to plant Sword Grass.”

The old farmer monk chatted fluently. Although he didn’t have the qualifications to plant Sword Grass, he had been working in the Agricultural Department Hall for such a long time and his understanding of Sword Grass could be considered quite clear.

Hearing this, Lu Xuan hesitated in his heart, considering whether or not to confess that he had already successfully cultivated a Sword Grass.

After weighing it multiple times, he finally decided to tell the truth.

Admitting that he has cultivated Sword Grass could greatly enhance the value of his identity as a Spirit Plant Master, thereby obtaining better spirit fields, spirit seeds, etc.

What comes next is, receiving a generous reward from the white light cluster, acquiring more cultivation levels, and treasures.

This part can be kept hidden, and on a day-to-day basis he only needs to consolidate his identity as a Spirit Plant Master.

“Without concealing anything from senior brother, I once obtained a Sword Grass seed in a small market in the outside world. After experimenting and probing for a while, I was lucky enough to find a method to cultivate Sword Grass and successfully cultivated one.”

Lu Xuan said softly.

“Junior brother, are you joking? It’s not impossible to randomly obtain a Sword Grass seed. Although very few such seeds leak to the outside world, it’s somewhat feasible.”

“But then, you figured out how to plant Sword Grass?”

The old farmer monk looked as though he heard something incredible disbelief filled his face.

“Well, senior brother, have a look. Is this Sword Grass?”

Lu Xuan took the Sword Grass from his storage bag and placed it in front of the old farmer monk.

“Huh?”

The monk uttered softly, picking up the Black Sword Grass on the wooden table, carefully observing it and occasionally infusing it with Spiritual Power. “Although there are some minor differences from the ones I’ve seen before this is indeed a Black Sword Grass.”

“Of superior quality?!”

The old Farmer Monk couldn’t help but lift his head, looking at Lu Xuan with astonished eyes, completely round, while wrinkles piled up on his forehead.

This man before him actually knew how to grow a superior quality Sword Grass on his own!

He had some understanding of how to cultivate Sword Grass, it could simply be summarized in one word: nurturing it with Sword Qi.

However, although easy to understand, it was difficult to put into practice, as this simple sentence concealed many complex conditions.

Firstly, it required a cultivator who was deeply accomplished in the Sword Dao and could control Sword Qi with nuance. This was necessary to meet the needs of the Sword Grass.

Secondly, an experienced Spirit Plant Master was needed, who could provide the most suitable Sword Qi in accordance with the growing conditions and stages of the Sword Grass.

One should know that the body strength of Sword Grass at each stage was different, and the requirement of Sword Qi was continually changing.

If the strength of Sword Qi provided was too strong, or in abundance, it could potentially harm the Sword Grass. On the other hand, if the quantity of Sword Qi was too small, or the strength too weak, it would affect the quality of the Sword Grass, possibly even stunting it in its growth.

Lu Xuan, however, had satisfied both of these highly challenging conditions before even joining the Sky Sword Sect.

The old Farmer Monk couldn’t help but look at him with fresh eyes, unknowingly carrying a little respect in his voice.

“Who would have thought that Junior Brother Lu was such a natural Spirit Plant Master, able to cultivate the Sword Grass successfully without a teacher.” “With Junior Brother’s ability, I am sure the seniors within the Sect will value you, assigning you important tasks. When that time comes, don’t forget about me, your senior brother.”

“Senior brother is joking, I was merely lucky.”

Lu Xuan laughed.

Junior Brother Lu, I’ll report your success in cultivating the Sword Grass immediately.

However, the Hall Master is currently in closed-door cultivation within the Inner Sect. It may take a few days. Junior Brother, could you tell me where your residence is? I will let you know when there is news.”

The old Farmer Monk offered enthusiastically.

Since Lu Xuan could cultivate Sword Grass, such a rare Spirit Plant on his own, his future prospects were clearly bright. Taking this opportunity, the old monk decided to curry some favor, making a connection.

“Thank you, senior brother.”

Lu Xuan told the old Farmer Monk about his dwelling location, then took the Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seed and left the Agricultural Department Hall.

Outside the hall, he picked a tall Spirit Crane, which carried him towards his dwelling.

The Spirit Crane was speedy and in a flash, arrived above his dwelling.

Lu Xuan lightly jumped off, handed over a Spirit Stone and then opening the formation, entered the courtyard.

“I’m back.”

The Cloud Leopard came out from the house leisurely, as if only hearing him then. It looked at Lu Xuan with indifferent green pupils.

“Roar…”

A coarse, dismissive growl that suggested it already knew.

Lu Xuan pulled the tufts of grey hair on the tips of its ears, took out the Wind Falcon Egg from his storage bag, and carefully placed it on the ground.

“This is our new little friend at home. Remember not to bully it in the future.” Lu Xuan looked at the Cloud Leopard, roughly the size of a large cat in front of him, and said.

He had seen quite a few videos of wild cats catching birds in his previous life so he took the precaution of giving the Cloud Leopard an early warning..
