Chapter 1072: The Ancient Swordshark's Friend
So far, he had cultivated over a dozen Seventh Rank Spiritual Plants, but not a single one was ready for harvest.
Among them, the Azurewood Thunder Vine, Empty Cicada Wood, and Eighth Mansion had all produced several stages of Light Orb rewards.
The Sixth Rank and lower Spiritual Plants had already bestowed upon Lu Xuan numerous divine treasures, so he was especially eager for the Seventh Rank Spiritual Plants.
"It's time to prepare and set off back to the Sword Sect."
Lu Xuan surveyed the surroundings of his Daoist Mansion, thinking to himself.
He left some materials in the mansion for the Grass Puppet to watch over, repeatedly instructing it to guard the mansion with the Thunder Demon. He then silently departed from the Thunder Fire Star Cave.
After a long journey through the void, he finally arrived outside the Cave Profound Sword Sect.
"I'm finally back."
Lu Xuan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed completely.
Although he had a Seventh Rank Jadeship specially crafted for him by the Sword Peak, capable of traversing the void, it was impossible to avoid all the risks in the void, and he had to be cautious and vigilant.
Fortunately, he only encountered a few minor disturbances along the way, which he handled well, and returned to the Sword Sect smoothly.
"Once I refine those two Incomplete Cavern Worlds and mature the Azurewood Thunder Vine, Azure Dragon Wood, and the Spiritual Plants in the Abyss Star Grotto, the Merchant Guild will establish a branch near the Sword Sect, and there will be no need to go to the Liyang Realm again."
With his identity as a Sword Sect disciple, Lu Xuan smoothly passed through the Ten Directions Extinction Formation.
Moments later, he ascended Zhen Jian Peak and entered his Daoist Mansion.
Over a hundred meters away from the mansion, he saw the White Ape guarding the entrance, looking expectant.
If it weren't for the plump falcon beside it, whose feathers were ruffled, Lu Xuan would have thought that the White Ape had been waiting for him for who knows how long.
"Master, you're finally back!"
The White Ape transformed into a stream of light, and its speed was even faster than the Plump Falcon. It directly hugged Lu Xuan's leg.
Lu Xuan chuckled, "After I left, no one was there to stop you from picking fights with the Thunder Dragon Roar Beasts. Do you miss me?"
"Heaven and Earth are my witnesses. Although I like sparring with them, I miss you even more, Master."
"Without you in the mansion, I feel like I've lost my backbone."
The White Ape stared with its fiery, crystal-like eyes and raised a furry little fist, gesturing towards Lu Xuan.
Just as it finished speaking, the Plump Falcon's round belly bounced it away, and it pounced in front of Lu Xuan, chattering nonstop.
Its voice was filled with both longing for Lu Xuan and resentment towards the White Ape.
Lu Xuan soothed it with a few words and entered the mansion.
The Thunder Dragon Roar Beasts, Green Horn Thunder Beast, Thunder Beast, and other spiritual beasts surrounded him.
Lu Xuan took out a stalk of Omnipresent Grass, divided it into several sections, and evenly distributed them among the spiritual beasts.
Then, without resting, he entered the Spirit Field to inspect the growth of the numerous Spiritual Plants.
The Sword Sect's spiritual energy was pure and dense, and he occupied a superior position on Zhen Jian Peak. During his absence, the Spiritual Plants had grown well, but he needed to make some minor adjustments.
In the Sword Grass Spirit Field area, Lu Xuan continuously displayed various high-level sword techniques, and countless sword auras permeated the plants precisely, nourishing the numerous sword grasses.
The White Bone Slaughter Sword Grass, Thunder Sound Sword Grass, Azure Profound Flourish and Wither Sword Grass...
All the sword grasses exuded vitality, and the surroundings were filled with countless tiny sword auras.
Lu Xuan approached the Seventh Rank Freedom Boundless Sword Grass and cast the corresponding sword technique. In an instant, several sword auras shot out, continuously dividing at a speed imperceptible to even his Spirit Sense, and countless hair-thin sword lights rapidly surged into the sword grass.
With the aid of the Transparent Sword Heart and Thunderous Sword Gallbladder, and the foundation of sword light division he established when cultivating the Light Splitting Shadow Sword Grass, Lu Xuan had already gained initial insights into the Freedom Boundless Sword Scripture. Cultivating the Freedom Boundless Sword Grass was no problem for him.
After cultivating numerous Sword Grasses, Lu Xuan arrived at the Spirit Field where over twenty Primordial Spirit Ginsengs were growing.
Compared to the last time he left the Sword Sect, the Primordial Spirit Ginsengs had grown significantly. The dense primordial energy surrounding the pure white spirit plants transformed into a faint white mist, creating an ethereal atmosphere.
Lu Xuan carefully tended to the plants before returning to his residence to cultivate various divine arts and secret techniques.
Early the next morning, just as he was spreading a layer of Earthly Balanced Soil in the Spirit Field, a sharp voice of a White Ape echoed outside his Daoist Mansion.
"Please come this way, Senior Yuanrong. My master just returned not long ago."
Lu Xuan's spiritual sense swept over, and he spotted Yuanrong, dressed in a red robe, rushing over to the Daoist Mansion.
"Lu Xuan pays his respects to Senior Master Yuan," he said, quickly standing up to greet her.
"No need for such formalities, Junior Lu. I just learned that you've returned from the Cloud Void Domain, so I came to see you," Yuanrong said with concern.
"Thanks to the giant Jadeship prepared by the Sword Peak for me, I was able to travel through the Void Realm with ease and without any mishaps," Lu Xuan replied with a smile.
"By the way, Senior Yuanrong, these are some Sword Talismans I drew during my time cultivating Spirit Plants in the Cloud Void Domain."
Guessing her intention, he took out several dozen fourth and fifth-rank Sword Talismans from his storage bag.
However, Yuanrong frowned.
"Junior Lu, we all know that you have the Sword Peak in your heart, but now that you've reached a crucial stage in your Nascent Soul breakthrough, cultivation should be your top priority."
She spoke with a solemn expression.
"Senior Yuanrong, your words are reasonable. I'll take your advice," Lu Xuan replied earnestly.
"During my stay in the Cloud Void Domain for over two years, I didn't neglect my cultivation. After returning to the Sword Sect, I'll dedicate myself even more to strive for an early breakthrough in the Nascent Soul realm."
Lu Xuan made a solemn promise.
"It's good that you have this determination, Junior Lu. Perhaps it won't be long before we can address each other as peers," Yuanrong said with a bright smile.
"At that time, it won't be too late for you to draw more Sword Talismans."
"Creating Talismans consumes too much time and energy, but teaching is different."
"After some time, I hope you can spare a few days to give a lecture to those talented disciples of the Sword Peak who are skilled in Talisman creation. You can share your insights and tips on drawing Sword Talismans. What do you think?"
Yuanrong collected the Sword Talismans and handed a stack of Sword Seals to Lu Xuan, asking softly.
"I'll leave it to you, Senior. I'll prepare and inform the fellow disciples," Lu Xuan said with a smile.
After Yuanrong left, he entered the inner area of the Sword Peak, passing through numerous restrictions until he reached the Ancient Swordshark.
The Ancient Swordshark had once given him a Primordial Spirit Root Void Embryo Immortal Vine that had lost its vitality, so Lu Xuan naturally wanted to repay the favor.
The fifth-rank True Sword Essence he had left last time was probably almost finished, so he came to deliver some more to the Ancient Swordshark.
"You're back?"
The Ancient Swordshark was coiled around a silver-white pillar, with countless slender sword blades growing like hair. Its head had two long silver-white whiskers that swayed, leaving trails of Sword Intent wherever they went.
"Lu Xuan pays his respects to Senior," he said.
"I was away at my previous cultivation site for a while, causing a delay in delivering the Sword Essence. Please forgive me."
"It's fine. This time, I have a request for you."
"I have a friend who will be visiting the Sword Sect in a little over a month. I'd like you to help me receive him."
The Ancient Swordshark spoke slowly.
