Chapter 1065: Yao Daizi's Visit
Chapter 1065: Yao Daizi's Visit
His consciousness withdrew from the ancient tome deep within his sea of consciousness.
"I'll try to get the second half of the Heavenly Script Scroll as soon as possible."
Lu Xuan sighed.
The Yin Symbol Peach had grown to a hundred years, but that didn't mean it had been cultivated for a full century. During this time, due to the high-rank spirit soil, the pure spiritual energy in the Daoist mansion, and Lu Xuan's meticulous cultivation methods, the spirit plant could bear fruit and reward a light orb within a few decades.
As for the next level, he could slowly cultivate it anyway. After all, Lu Xuan had plenty of lifespan, and if necessary, he could replenish the Divine Wood Green Flask and use the ripening technique again.
He thought to himself as his gaze fell on the nine pale black spirit peaches at the top of the Yin Symbol Peach.
The surface of the spirit peaches was surrounded by a faint yin aura, unlike normal spirit fruits.
Lu Xuan carefully picked the nine spirit peaches.
His mind focused on them.
[Spirit Peach, Sixth Rank Spirit Fruit, formed during the growth of the Yin Symbol Peach, contains rich and dense yin energy, and is a great supplement for Ghost Cultivators and Yin Beasts.]
"No light orb? It seems the light orb of the Yin Symbol Peach is mainly determined by the peach wood."
Lu Xuan waited for a while, but seeing no new white light orb appearing within the plant, he sighed with disappointment.
However, he was also prepared for this.
He had cultivated spirit plants similar to the Yin Symbol Peach before. The Pure Yang Golden Lotus in the Thunder Fire Star Cave was a Fifth Rank treasure, and its stem and leaves were also valuable, but the light orb reward could only be obtained after harvesting the lotus seeds.
"At least this spirit peach has considerable value and can be exchanged for a large number of spirit stones or other treasures."
He placed the nine spirit peaches into an exquisite long jade box and stored it in the Gluttonous Worm Bag.
For the next period, he stayed in the Abyss Star Grotto, cultivating the spirit plants and taking care of the few demonic beasts.
During this time, the Ancestor Coffin Tree had already been successfully refined by Incarnation Ling Gu, and he could lie inside it to cultivate, allowing him to quickly improve his strength.
As soon as he returned to the Thunder Fire Star Cave, Lu Xuan had just entered the Daoist mansion when Wood Daoist arrived right behind him.
"Lu, I've been waiting for you to come back."
"It's too boring in the Star Plucking Tower, so I came to drink some spirit brew with you."
Wood Daoist, familiar with the place, entered the courtyard without prying into the numerous spirit plants protected by formations and restrictions.
Lu Xuan brought out spirit fruits and spirit brew, and the two of them enjoyed them without needing to say a word.
"Lu, how long do you plan to stay in the Liyang Realm this time?"
Wood Daoist put down his white jade wine cup.
"A year or two at the shortest, three to five years at the longest, depending on the growth of these spirit plants in the Daoist mansion."
Lu Xuan replied casually.
"What, is Wood Daoist reluctant to part with me?"
He chuckled lightly.
"Of course. Without you as my drinking companion, where else could I drink so much spirit brew?"
Wood Daoist spoke frankly, showing no hint of embarrassment.
"Haha, I knew you were thinking about my spirit brew."
Lu Xuan laughed heartily.
He didn't mind Wood Daoist's little thoughts and instead felt at ease because of his honesty.
The two had known each other for many years, and when Lu Xuan first entered the Thunder Fire Star Cave, he had obtained more than one treasure from Wood Daoist. Plus, with so much spirit brew, he wouldn't mind if Wood Daoist drank a bit more.
"After returning, when we meet again, Lu might already be a Primordial Spirit True Monarch."
Wood Daoist sighed.
"To be honest, I'm quite envious of you."
"Both of us have our minds elsewhere, not on cultivation. I'm obsessed with searching for all kinds of rare and exotic treasures, while Lu is passionate about spirit plants."
"But with the same attitude towards cultivation, the results are vastly different."
"Wood has no hope of achieving the Primordial Spirit, and can only retire in the Star Plucking Tower, while Lu, with his extraordinary skill in spirit plant cultivation, has smoothly entered the Cave Profound Sword Sect, becoming an inner sect disciple, and has even reached the Perfect Foundation Establishment stage."
"With the support of the Sword Sect, the possibility of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit stage is very high."
"Wood Daoist's eyes were hazy with intoxication, and he was more talkative than usual.
'Fellow Daoist Wood, there's no need to belittle yourself. With your exceptional skill in appraising treasures, you could thrive even in a powerful organization like the Sea Tower Merchant Guild.'
'Furthermore, advancing to the Primordial Spirit Realm is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. Even a mighty sect like the Sword Sect cannot guarantee that a designated Late Foundation Establishment Cultivator will break through to the Primordial Spirit Realm.'
Lu Xuan spoke up, offering comfort.
'Hahaha, I spoke out of turn, please don't mind me, Fellow Daoist.'
Wood Daoist's eyes cleared up considerably.
The two naturally changed the topic.
'Fellow Daoist Lu, are you in your Daoist Mansion? I am Yao Qingyue from Liyang Dao Sect, and I have come to pay you a visit.'
Suddenly, a gentle voice could be heard from outside the Daoist Mansion.
'Yao Qingyue from Liyang Dao Sect? Is he that Liyang Daozi?'
Wood Daoist's gaze shifted as he asked Lu Xuan.
'It should be that Fellow Daoist Yao.'
Lu Xuan swept his spirit sense and immediately sensed a refined young man waiting by the entrance to the Daoist Mansion.
The young man wore a light blue Daoist robe, his demeanor was like jade, and his aura was otherworldly, exuding a natural sense of Daoist charm.
Lu Xuan bowed to Wood Daoist, 'Fellow Daoist Wood, would you like to join me in welcoming Fellow Daoist Yao?'
'Of course!'
Wood Daoist immediately stood up, his feet unsteady, and his mind still in a daze.
He never expected that Yao Qingyue, the Liyang Dao Sect's disciple, would take the initiative to visit Lu Xuan! Who was Liyang Daozi? He was practically a prodigy, just one step away from becoming a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, and his status and position were far superior to that of an inner sect disciple of the Sword Sect.
Yet, Yao Qingyue had taken the initiative to visit, making Wood Daoist realize that Lu Xuan's status within the Sword Sect was even higher than he had imagined.
'Fellow Daoist Yao, I apologize for not coming to greet you earlier. I hope you can forgive me.'
Lu Xuan led Wood Daoist, whose expression gradually calmed down, to the entrance of the Daoist Mansion.
'It's no trouble. I just felt that it's not easy for Fellow Daoist Lu to return to the Liyang Realm, and I couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy about not paying a visit to Yao.'
Yao Qingyue smiled as he spoke.
This further confirmed Wood Daoist's suspicions.
'After returning, I was preoccupied with various matters and was just planning to visit Fellow Daoist Yao at the Liyang Dao Sect. I didn't expect you to come to the Thunder Fire Star Cave today.'
Lu Xuan casually made up an excuse.
He had met Yao Qingyue a few times, and their relationship was amicable. Although he felt that Yao Qingyue's enthusiasm was a bit excessive, since the other party had taken the initiative to extend goodwill, he naturally wouldn't refuse.
After introducing Yao Qingyue and Wood Daoist to each other, he led them into the Daoist Mansion.
'Fellow Daoist Lu, your Daoist Mansion is filled with vibrant life force. It's no wonder you are renowned as a Spirit Plant Cultivator in the Cave Profound Sword Sect.'
To avoid causing Lu Xuan any discomfort, Yao Qingyue refrained from using his spirit sense, merely glancing around casually.
His initiative to visit Lu Xuan stemmed from the unexpected news he had heard within the Liyang Dao Sect about Lu Xuan's reputation.
The Sword Peak Competition, which occurs once every thirty years in the Cave Profound Sword Sect, is a significant event closely monitored by other major sects.
In the recent competition, Zhen Jian Peak, which had always been at the bottom, suddenly rose by two ranks, naturally arousing the intense curiosity of many sect cultivators.
What happened during the competition was not a secret, so various major sects and powers quickly learned the reason behind Zhen Jian Peak's improved ranking.
A Spirit Plant Cultivator contributed two rare fourth-rank sword grasses and sword gourds, and also achieved three first-class ratings in the cultivation of spirit plants, symbol creation, and spirit brew.
Not only did this significantly increase Zhen Jian Peak's usual score, but it also addressed the sect's greatest weakness, making him a key figure in the peak's rise in rankings.
The two already had a certain level of friendship, and upon learning of Lu Xuan's remarkable achievements in the Cave Profound Sword Sect, Yao Qingyue was even more determined to establish a good relationship with him.
'Fellow Daoist Yao is too kind. These are just some low-grade items. I was too obsessed and ended up cultivating more than necessary.'
Lu Xuan humbly replied."
