Chapter 1173: The Netherworld Edict
Chapter 1173: The Netherworld Edict
Lu Xuan bid farewell to the Golden Tiger and returned to the True Sword Peak.
Within his cave abode, there was a pill chamber with a three-legged, double-eared bright red pill furnace inside. The furnace was of the fifth rank, sufficient for his daily pill refinement needs.
Below the pill furnace, over a dozen clumps of Heaven-Distant Flame Essence were squeezed together, burning with intense flames.
Just as Lu Xuan was about to examine them for any signs of rebellion, a lump of transparent, water-like substance appeared in his palm.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the strange insect, the Medicine Beast, which loved to consume pill toxins and dregs.
Having refined many pills, the Medicine Beast's body had become round and plump. Even as it flowed in Lu Xuan's palm, he could feel its bloated form.
A thought crossed Lu Xuan's mind, and the numerous Heaven-Distant Flame Essences within the light orb's pill formulas suddenly became lively.
His proficiency in pill refinement primarily came from the pill formula experience packages within the light orbs. Among them, the third-rank Foundation Establishment Pill and the fourth-rank Purification Pill both reached the master level.
These two pills were highly sought after by cultivators, bringing Lu Xuan a steady stream of spirit stones. As for the several first and second-rank pills he mastered, their benefits were limited, so he mostly stopped refining them.
Regarding the fifth-rank pills, he currently had four types. There was the Essence Spirit Pill to enhance spiritual power, the Five Elements Pill containing rich forces of the five elements, the Ten Thousand Phenomena Pill to refine cultivators' physical bodies and accelerate the cultivation speed of corresponding demon race body refinement techniques, and the Holy Infant Pill that slightly increased the Core Formation success rate.
Among these, the Five Elements Pill and the Ten Thousand Phenomena Pill were at the small success level, while the Essence Spirit Pill had fewer pill formula experience packages and was at the proficient level. As for the Holy Infant Pill, due to the lack of that evil spirit plant, he only had a skilled level of mastery.
Although the Holy Infant Fruit was of the fifth rank, it was extremely rare in the cultivation world, and its evil nature made Lu Xuan unwilling to cultivate it further.
The Holy Infant Fruit mother plant, under his stimulation, had given birth to several spirit seeds. As a result, he still had several Holy Infant Pills in his possession.
As for earning spirit stones by refining the Holy Infant Pills...
Currently, Lu Xuan had already reached the Nascent Soul realm and wasn't too interested in the light orb rewards for the Holy Infant Fruit. Moreover, there were too many ways and methods to earn spirit stones, so he didn't feel like putting in the effort to gain one more.
He began refining the fifth-rank pills, and out of six furnaces, three successfully produced pills.
"A fifty percent success rate..."
"The sample size is too small, and the actual success rate is a bit lower than fifty percent, but it can still be called a Pill Refinement Master."
"Indeed, pill masters who master several types of fifth-rank pill formulas like me are rare, and even fewer surpass my pill refinement skills."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
After obtaining the Five Elements Pill formula, he could gradually reveal his pill refinement skills in the future.
Soon, half a year passed.
In the Swordgrass Spirit Field, sword intent was rampant, and countless subtle sword qi filled every inch of space. In the nearby Sword Pool, over a hundred spike fish swam leisurely, stirring up the pool's sword qi.
After such a long period of comprehending the Cave Profound Sword Scripture, his understanding of various sword techniques deepened. This not only helped him cultivate numerous swordgrasses but also improved his sword cultivation.
"A new batch of Essence Spirit Ginseng is entering the rapid growth stage."
He arrived at a region of the spirit field shrouded in thick white mist.
Dozens of pure white spirit ginseng grew freely, and the dense essence qi they emitted condensed into the white mist above. Stepping into it, his entire body instantly became full of vitality.
Lu Xuan looked at the numerous fifth-rank spirit ginseng teeming with vitality beneath his feet, his heart filled with hope.
He returned indoors and entered his personal space within the Radiant Lotus.
After staying there for several days, meticulously cultivating various high-rank spirit plants, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly sensed a slight anomaly from the spirit field region where those few evil spirit plants were cultivated.
"The Yellow Springs Immortal Tree is about to bear fruit?"
His divine sense swept over, and a smile appeared on his face.
In a flash, he arrived outside the Netherworld Spirit Field.
To prevent the evil aura of the Netherworld Spirit Field from affecting the other spirit plants in the space, he set up numerous restrictions outside, creating a separate area for the spirit plants and the physical bodies of the spirits.
As he entered the center of the spirit field, the sound of flowing water echoed in his ears, and in a moment of mental distraction, a towering giant tree silently appeared before his eyes.
The Nether River beneath the Yellow Springs Immortal Tree surged and undulated, more turbulent than ever before, and the stillness of death was so thick it seemed tangible, nourishing the tree's roots, trunk, and branches.
Countless branches, like tentacles, hung down, and on the trunk were countless evil and filthy objects.
The Nether River's water washed over the tree more and more intensely, and a deep spirit light flowed on the tree's surface. Wherever it passed, the countless evil and filthy objects withered rapidly, turning into wisps of life and death energy that merged into the deep spirit light.
The spirit light gathered at the top of the tree, flowing into a dark yellow spirit fruit at its peak.
The spirit fruit's radiance seemed to contain the mysteries of life and death.
Lu Xuan flew to the top of the tree, holding his breath as his arm turned a deep golden color. Carefully, he plucked the dark yellow spirit fruit.
His mind focused on the fruit, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
[Yellow Springs Immortal Fruit, a Seventh Rank Spirit Fruit, formed by the Yellow Springs Immortal Tree. It involves the Great Dao of Life and Death and has numerous wondrous uses.]

"Involving the Great Dao of Life and Death?"
Lu Xuan muttered to himself.
He hesitated for a moment, not rushing to consume the Yellow Springs Immortal Fruit.
Previously, at the merchant guild's auction, when he obtained the spirit seed of the Yellow Springs Immortal Tree, he had verbally promised the treasure spirit senior that after the Immortal Fruit was formed, he would give one to the treasure spirit.
"Fortunately, the Yellow Springs Immortal Tree bears a spirit fruit every once in a while, so I can give one to the treasure spirit senior in the future."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
He stored the spirit fruit in his Tiny Universe Scroll and looked at the light orb that had quietly appeared at the top of the tree.
He reached out and gently touched the surface of the light orb, and in an instant, a rain of light fell from the sky, quickly condensing into a slender river of light that flowed into Lu Xuan's body.
At the same time, a thought flashed through his mind.
[Obtained one Seventh Rank Yellow Springs Immortal Fruit and acquired the Eighth Rank Treasure, 'Nine Netherworld Edict'.]
The thought disappeared, and a scroll edict descended from the sky, floating in front of Lu Xuan.
The edict was filled with a chilling aura, as if it came from the depths of the ghostly realm. Its surface glowed with a deep spirit light, and faint whispers seemed to echo in his ears, as if countless ghosts were hidden within.
Lu Xuan's mind focused on the deep edict, and he instantly understood its detailed information.
['Nine Netherworld Edict', an Eighth Rank Treasure, is the fundamental method of the Nine Netherworld Sect in the Yellow Springs World. It contains ghost cultivation transformation techniques, cultivation methods, various ghost refining and control secret techniques, and ghost path supernatural abilities.]
"Another Eighth Rank Treasure!"
Lu Xuan's face lit up with joy.
Lu Xuan's mind immersed in the deep edict, and suddenly, his divine soul felt a chill, as if he had entered it and was witnessing the ghost cultivation transformation techniques, cultivation methods, and various ghost path supernatural abilities.
"If my physical body is destroyed and my divine soul is damaged, I can consider switching to the ghost cultivation path."
"Although there are many restrictions, and one cannot attain the Great Dao, with this 'Nine Netherworld Edict', one can become a powerful ghost cultivator."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
