Chapter 1116: Heaven Cicada Shedding
The Radiant Essence Spirit Pill before him was of great use to Lu Xuan, and he wasted no time in consuming it.
As the pill dissolved in his mouth, a cool and refreshing energy surged towards his forehead, and countless rays of clarity emerged in his Sea of Consciousness, silently seeping into his Divine Soul.
His Divine Soul seemed to sense the effect of the radiant light and greedily absorbed it.
Before long, all the light was devoured, leaving nothing behind.
Lu Xuan could sense that something extraordinary was being nurtured within his Sea of Consciousness.
With a slight movement of his Divine Consciousness, he instantly teleported several dozen li away.
"Both the speed and range are significantly better than before."
He tested it briefly and marveled at the wondrous effects of the Radiant Essence Spirit Pill.
After that, the residual pill energy continued to nourish his Divine Soul, but the rate of increase was not as exaggerated as it was initially.
For the next month, Lu Xuan stayed in the Incomplete Heavenly Abyss, peacefully cultivating numerous high-grade Spirit Plants.
During this time, he had no intention of fishing for high-grade Spirit Fish in the Thousand Treasures True River.
After all, although he possessed the ability to understand the characteristics and preferences of Spirit Fish, high-grade ones were already rare, and it would take months to catch one. With his time constraints, he abandoned that idea.
"The Void Cicada Wood is about to shed its skin and evolve into a Sixth Rank Spirit Plant."
Before leaving the Incomplete Heavenly Abyss, he checked the status of the Void Cicada Wood and decided to hasten its maturation.
"It's been cultivated for many years, and since it's only evolving into a Sixth Rank, a single drop of Primordial Tree Essence will be enough."
As he thought, a drop of vibrant green essence appeared in front of him, emitting a startling vitality.
The essence fell onto the semi-transparent tree trunk, creating ripples of light green waves.
The ripples fluctuated, and the Void Cicada Wood absorbed them all.
When he examined it with his mind, the progress bar at the bottom of the Void Cicada Wood was completely filled.
The faint sound within the trunk became more distinct, and the numerous strange patterns on the surface seemed to come alive, spreading in all directions like a cracked porcelain vessel.
Accompanied by a faint yet vibrant cicada chirp, countless transparent fragments of various sizes fell to the ground.
The moment they touched the ground, they vanished without a trace, splashing transparent spiritual light that instantly merged into the Heavenly Abyss.
Immediately after, a faintly shimmering white light orb appeared at the top of the Void Cicada Wood.
Lu Xuan reached out and gently touched it.
In an instant, the orb shattered silently, and a shower of light rained down, condensing into a slender river of light that swiftly flowed into his body.
At the same time, a thought flashed through his mind.
[The Void Cicada Wood successfully shed its skin and evolved into a Sixth Rank Spirit Plant, yielding a Seventh Rank Treasure—Heaven Cicada Shedding.]
As the thought vanished, a gigantic cicada shell appeared before Lu Xuan.
The cicada shell was almost the same size as him, semi-transparent, with intricate patterns on its wings, resembling the pair of enormous cicada wings in Lu Xuan's Sea of Consciousness by seven to eight parts.
It was as light as a feather, as if it could dissipate into the air at any moment.
Lu Xuan focused his mind on the giant cicada shell, instantly gaining detailed information about it.
[Heaven Cicada Shedding, a Seventh Rank Treasure, is the remains of a Heaven Cicada from ancient times. After enduring countless years, only a fraction of the Heaven Cicada's power remains within.]
[Refining the Heaven Cicada Shedding allows one to conceal their form, making it difficult for ordinary Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to detect. It also aids cultivators in comprehending the Heaven Cicada's unique art, the Heaven Cicada Six Transformations.]
"Heaven Cicada Shedding! Evolving into a Sixth Rank yields a Seventh Rank Treasure!"
Lu Xuan was overjoyed.
As the Void Cicada Wood's rank increased after shedding its skin, the obtained treasure became even more valuable. This time, it even produced a Seventh Rank Heaven Cicada Shedding.
"It has an incredibly powerful concealment ability, making it difficult for ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators to detect. Excellent, excellent."
"At the same time, it can also assist in cultivating the Celestial Cicada's Six Transformations. It's like giving a pillow to someone who's already asleep."
A smile appeared on Lu Xuan's face.
The divine techniques and treasures he obtained from the light orb were numerous, and refining and cultivating them required a substantial amount of time. The Celestial Cicada's Six Transformations had been placed relatively low on his priority list, and his progress in cultivation was limited.
Now that he had obtained the Cicada's Shedding, he could easily comprehend the Celestial Cicada's Six Transformations.
He stored the Cicada's Shedding in the Gluttonous Worm Pouch, then carefully cultivated the numerous high-level spirit plants before boarding the gigantic sword boat and departing.
The Incomplete Heavenly Abyss was much closer to the Cloud Void Domain's Star Cave. Since he was already in the Incomplete Heavenly Abyss, it was a good opportunity to pay a visit and collect some treasures along the way.
"After advancing to the Nascent Soul Realm, I should also pay a visit to some old friends."
The gigantic sword boat could shuttle through the void, and its speed was incredibly fast. Soon, he arrived within the borders of Li Yang.
Thunder Star Cave.
Amidst the thunderous rays, a Core Formation Cultivator in the middle stage, accompanied by three Completed Foundation Establishment Cultivators, was conducting a tense inspection.
"Senior Brother Zhang, it seems we've inspected this area multiple times. Shouldn't we check other places as well?"
A young man who had just become a Star Cave patrolman transmitted his question to the middle-aged cultivator beside him, who had a calm and composed demeanor.
"Just follow Senior Uncle Huang's instructions."
The middle-aged cultivator glanced at the Core Formation Cultivator walking ahead and transmitted a reminder.
"Yes, Senior Brother. I shouldn't have such thoughts."
The young man quickly explained.
"This place is of utmost importance within the entire Thunder Star Cave because it contains a cave mansion with a special status."
Seeing the youth's proper attitude, the middle-aged cultivator whispered.
"The owner of that cave mansion has a noble identity and a prominent status."
"He is a Chamber Guest Scholar of Hailou Commerce Guild, and although he doesn't need to be treated differently, due to a twist of fate, he also became an inner disciple of the Cave Profound Sword Sect, highly regarded by the sect's upper echelon."
"An inner disciple of the Cave Profound Sword Sect? No wonder the Star Cave is showing such favor."
The youth suddenly realized.
"It's not just that."
"Rumor has it that the owner of the cave mansion has advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm and become a Primordial Spirit True Monarch."
The middle-aged cultivator looked at the cave mansion, which was faintly visible amidst the thunderous rays a few miles away, his expression complex.
"The cave mansion of a Primordial Spirit True Monarch from the Cave Profound Sword Sect! We can't afford any mistakes."
The youth immediately understood the Star Cave's current actions.
"After this rumor spread, that cave mansion became quite popular."
"To prevent any troublemakers from affecting the True Monarch's cave mansion, the Star Cave specifically assigned a Core Formation Cultivator to patrol the vicinity at all times."
The calm middle-aged cultivator sighed.
With his rich patrol experience, he could clearly sense the change in the Star Cave's attitude before and after.
If it was initially just a gesture of goodwill towards the Sword Sect cultivator, with the patrol now including extra vigilance around the cave mansion, it had become a responsibility.
The Star Cave had dispatched a Core Formation Cultivator to guard the area around the cave mansion, increasing the level of protection by several folds.
"I see."
The young man muttered, his eyes filled with envy.
What kind of person was this Primordial Spirit True Monarch that the Star Cave valued so highly? As he was deep in thought, suddenly, a star river appeared in the sky, its brilliance undiminished by the endless thunderous rays.
"Senior Uncle, what is that...?"
The calm middle-aged cultivator's expression changed.
"No need to be nervous. It's a manifestation of the Thunder Star Cave Master's divine technique."
The Core Formation Cultivator said calmly.
"The destination of the star river is nearby. Could it be that the Primordial Spirit True Monarch from the Cave Profound Sword Sect has returned?"
