Chapter 1133: Abundant Harvest
Chapter 1133: Abundant Harvest
In the vast starry sky, meteorites kept lighting up, streaking across the heavens like shooting stars and disappearing from everyone's sight.
Most of those leaving were cultivators who had purchased various treasures at the auction.
Although it was safe enough within Sword Star City, those possessing rare treasures would naturally attract attention, and it was best to depart early to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Among them was the mysterious cultivator who had obtained the Ten Thousand Corpse True Demon Art, and Lu Xuan noticed two Primordial Spirit True Monarchs following closely behind, almost simultaneously leaving the Artifact Spirit Space.
Now that the treasures were no longer in his possession, Lu Xuan quietly expressed his gratitude to Mo Yuanfeng and the others.
"Thank you, fellow senior brothers. When we return to the Sword Sect, please come to this junior's cave mansion. I have some newly brewed spirit brew and cultivated spirit fruits."
With so many high-grade spirit seeds, Lu Xuan thought it was a good opportunity to celebrate.
"Excellent!"
"Haha, it's all for your spirit brew, fellow junior, that we put on this act of fellow disciples caring for each other."
Li Xuanchen laughed heartily.
"I guarantee you won't leave without getting drunk, Senior Brother Li."
Lu Xuan smiled at Li Xuanchen, never expecting that the Sword Palace Elder would be willing to put on an act for him and voluntarily act as his accomplice.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have obtained the Supreme Demon Fruit so easily.
As the group was expressing their fellow disciples' camaraderie, more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators gathered around, all of them with smiling faces.
"I didn't expect the Sword Sect to have such a deep foundation. Fellow Daoist Lu has just advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm, and you already possess so many rare and precious treasures."
The elderly elder of the Beast Cult smiled.
"Elder Nangong, you flatter me. Most of these treasures are spirit plants that I cultivated, and some were obtained by chance. Of course, it's also thanks to the support of the Sword Sect and the Hailou Commerce Guild."
Lu Xuan casually replied.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, may I ask where you obtained that half of the Ten Thousand Corpse True Demon Art?"
"I hope you don't mind telling me, fellow Daoist. If there are any developments, I will be deeply grateful."
The Elder of the Demon Extermination Sect seemed to be persistent and asked in a deep voice.
"Recently, when I returned to my cave mansion in the Cloud Void Region, I encountered a spatial storm in the void and unexpectedly came across a heavily injured demonic cultivator."
"After dealing with him, I found that white bone book on his body."
Lu Xuan made up a story.
"Did that demonic cultivator have any other treasures on him?"
"No, just some spirit stones, pills, and artifacts, which were destroyed during our battle."
Lu Xuan recalled and slowly replied.
"What's this, Elder Chen? Are you trying to interrogate me, a member of the Sword Sect?"
Mo Yuanfeng's expression turned solemn.
"I dare not, I dare not. It's just that this demonic cultivation art is too important and has far-reaching implications for the Demon Extermination Sect, so I took the liberty to ask a few more questions."
The Elder of the Demon Extermination Sect quickly explained and hurriedly left.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I am Qiu Feng from the Heavenly Yang Sect. I wonder if you still have any Spirit Nourishing Tea leaves? If so, I'm willing to purchase several pieces at a high price."
A middle-aged cultivator with a calm and composed demeanor approached the Sword Sect group and smiled as he asked Lu Xuan.
"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Qiu. The Spirit Nourishing Tea leaves are extremely rare, and I only have that one piece left."
Lu Xuan didn't want to reveal too much about the rare medicinal herbs he possessed, so he politely declined.
"What a pity."
"This is my communication artifact. If you cultivate the Spirit Nourishing Tea leaves again, you can contact me through this."
Qiu Feng handed Lu Xuan a communication talisman that resembled flames and said sincerely.
"You are also welcome to visit the Heavenly Yang Sect."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qiu, for your kindness."
Lu Xuan smiled.
After Qiu Feng, several more Nascent Soul cultivators took turns approaching, their words filled with enthusiasm and courtesy. Lu Xuan took this opportunity to get to know everyone.
In the midst of the chaos, he and several other cultivators appeared at the teleportation array on the branch tower.
After bidding farewell to Mo Yuanfeng and the others, Lu Xuan went downstairs and found Mu Heng.
"Fellow Daoist Mu, I need your help with something."
He spoke gently to Mu Heng.
"Please instruct me, senior."
"In the near future, I need the guild to help me collect a sixth-grade spirit seed or young spirit plant called the Heavenly Origin Fruit."
"The more the better, price is not an issue."
Lu Xuan instructed.
He would check on the Sword Sect's available Spirit Seeds from time to time, and as he didn't recall seeing any Heavenly Origin Fruit Spirit Seeds, he entrusted the task of collecting Spirit Seeds to the Commerce Guild.
"Alright, I'll inquire with the other branch halls and the headquarters."
Mu Heng solemnly promised.
The reason he came to Sword Star City was to curry favor with the Cave Profound Sword Sect's Spirit Plant Cultivator before him. Any request made by Lu Xuan would be wholeheartedly fulfilled by the Sword Star City branch halls and even the guild headquarters.
Lu Xuan nodded slightly and quietly returned to his cave mansion in the Sword Sect.
Possessing various rare treasures and divine abilities, and being cautious by nature, he would never give those covetous cultivators the slightest chance.
"This auction was truly a bountiful harvest!"
Back in his cave mansion, Lu Xuan completely relaxed, gazing at the countless spirit stones in his Gluttonous Worm Pouch, feeling incredibly refreshed.
The lowest grade of treasures at the auction was Fifth-grade, and they were extremely rare and precious varieties. As such, the spirit stones he earned alone amounted to tens of millions.
"By holding a private auction, my wealth would probably surpass that of many Mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivators."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
"However, the only downside is that many fellow Sword Sect disciples and cultivators from other powers have learned about a portion of my wealth."
"Not skilled in combat, solely focused on cultivating spirit plants, and carrying countless spirit stones, in the eyes of certain people, I'm just a live, fat sheep."
A faint smile appeared on his lips.
"The spirit stones are secondary; the main gains are the three high-grade Spirit Seeds, a Seed Condensation Technique, and a bottle of high-grade Spirit Spring Essence."
Especially the Spirit Seeds and the Seed Condensation Technique, once cultivated to maturity or mass-planted Heavenly Origin Fruit, the profits they would bring him were unimaginable.
"Golden Wind Jade Dew, although only Sixth-grade, has the effect of nourishing all things, and there's a considerable quantity, which can be used to nurture high-grade spirit plants."
Lu Xuan possessed several types of Spirit Spring Essence, but the highest-grade Primordial Tree Essence and Wood Spirit Juice were scarce, and the ones with higher quantities were of lower grades. This Golden Wind Jade Dew just filled this gap.
"Heavenly Origin Fruit Seed Condensation Technique, the first Sixth-grade Spirit Plant Condensation Technique I obtained, and it's of the Life-Extending type."
"However, even the Fifth-grade Seed Condensation Technique is already extremely challenging. For the Sixth-grade, I estimate that a corresponding Spirit Land is required, and the yield might be slightly inferior."
Lu Xuan secretly speculated in his heart.
"The most important are the three Spirit Seeds."
"Eighth-grade True Energy Mystic Gourd, after cultivating for ten thousand years, it might even evolve into a Postnatal Spirit Root."
"Ten thousand years is too long; I can use the Great Acceleration Technique to hasten its maturity."
"Eighth-grade Supreme Demon Fruit, a high-grade Demon Clan's treasured inheritance, can be consumed to refine the body, or fed to spirit beasts, granting them the qualifications of a Demon Sage."
"Ninth-grade Amber Jade Tree, when cultivated to maturity, it can give birth to the legendary Amber Jade Qi within spirit plants."
"Each of the three Spirit Seeds is incredibly rare and precious, already worth a city, not to mention the Light Orb Rewards obtained after they mature."
Just thinking about this, Lu Xuan's heart was filled with endless anticipation.
"Speaking of which, this auction was truly worth it!"
"Not only did it clear out some less useful inventory treasures, but it also provided an opportunity to obtain such rare Spirit Seeds."
Lu Xuan secretly thought to himself.
Previously, the acquisition of Spirit Seeds mainly relied on the Sword Sect and the Commerce Guild, and although they would appear from time to time, they were still relatively scarce overall.
But auctions were different.
Due to prior promotions, they attracted countless Nascent Soul Realm cultivators from the cultivation world.
As long as they took an interest in his treasures, they would proactively bring high-grade Spirit Seeds.
This way, the scope of participants expanded countless times.
"Once I accumulate more high-grade treasures, I can hold another auction."
"At that time, the invited cultivators won't be limited to fellow Sword Sect disciples and nearby powers; we can extend the invitation to cultivators from the Multiverse Realms."
Lu Xuan was eager to immediately reap a large number of rare treasures from these high-grade spirit plants.
