Chapter 1183: Infinite Refinement Sword Sand, A Generous Reward
Chapter 1183: Infinite Refinement Sword Sand, A Generous Reward
"The next step is to fulfill the cultivation requirements for this Eighth Rank Swordgrass."
"Finding a Heavenly Cavern Paradise is not difficult; I have a personal space created from a defective paradise, infused with eight Seventh Stage Treasures. Calling it a miniature paradise wouldn't be an exaggeration."
"To be fair, the cave mansion here at Huizhen Sword Peak can barely meet the standards of an ordinary paradise, and the Sword Qi is quite dense."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
If he wanted to plant the Annihilation Ultimate Sword Herb in his personal space, he could easily designate an area, release dozens of swordfish, and bury two or three Mystic Sword Steles to quickly obtain a high-quality Spirit Field with extremely dense Sword Qi.
"The Sword Qi of Annihilation Intention..."
"I'll head to the sect's library first. If it's not there, I'll have to make another trip to the Mystic Realm and carefully study the Cave Profound Sword Scripture to see if I can comprehend the sword techniques within."
He made an instant decision.
"Fortunately, I managed to improve the Soul Annihilation Prison Grass in time and successfully ripened it; otherwise, I wouldn't have been absolutely certain about obtaining this Eighth Rank Swordgrass Spirit Seed."
Lu Xuan gazed at the mysterious Spirit Seed planted in the Spirit Soil, thinking to himself.
There were generally three ways to obtain a Spirit Seed from the sect.
The first was to purchase it from the Spiritual Plant Pavilion, which required a large number of Sword Seals, and for higher-ranked Swordgrass, corresponding cultivation levels were necessary.
The second was through a sect or a fellow disciple's request for cultivation, which usually came with generous compensation. However, compared to the rewards after successful cultivation, this compensation seemed rather ordinary.
The third was similar to the case of the Annihilation Ultimate Sword Herb, where the acquisition conditions were extremely demanding, but once obtained, it would belong entirely to Lu Xuan. After successful cultivation, it would be equivalent to directly acquiring a high-level sword tool with a shared will.
This time, by improving it into the Sixth Rank Soul Annihilation Prison Grass, he fulfilled the main hidden condition for obtaining this Eighth Rank Swordgrass Spirit Seed.
The Annihilation Ultimate Sword Herb had not yet taken root and sprouted, and its early growth requirements were not high, which Lu Xuan could currently meet.
After cultivating it carefully, he entered other Spirit Fields and inspected the growth of each Swordgrass one by one.
A few days later, while cultivating the Celestial Apex True Art in his room, a gentle female voice echoed outside the cave mansion.
"Junior Brother Lu, I am Han Bingxuan from the Sword Palace. I have a matter to discuss with you."
Lu Xuan's divine sense swept over, and he instantly noticed a gracefully standing woman outside the cave mansion.
The woman wore a plain white garment, with exquisite features, painted-like eyebrows and eyes, and a gentle and serene temperament. She was at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
"So it's Senior Sister Han, please forgive me for not greeting you sooner."
Lu Xuan's figure flashed, and he appeared at the entrance of the cave mansion, greeting her with a smile.
The two entered a quiet courtyard, and Lu Xuan served the woman a cup of Green Dew Condensation.
"I've long heard that Junior Brother's brewed spirit wine is exceptional. After tasting it today, it's indeed delicious."
Green Dew Condensation was relatively more suitable for female cultivators. As expected, after taking a small sip, Han Bingxuan savored the fresh and natural taste in her mouth, and her eyes brightened.
"In my free time, I brew some spirit wine while cultivating spirit plants. Senior Sister, if you like it, you can take some back later."
Lu Xuan said with a light laugh.
"Junior Brother is too kind."
Han Bingxuan smiled.
"I'm here today to give you a treasure."
A fist-sized piece of gravel appeared in her hand.
The gravel was grayish-white, and upon closer inspection, it was formed by countless semi-transparent Sword Qi, with invisible edges and restrained sharpness, exuding a unique vitality.
"This item is called the Infinite Refinement Sword Sand, a Seventh Stage Treasure left behind after the refinement of the Mystic Realm's primordial Mystic Sword Qi. It can be considered a unique type of Sword Dao Spirit Soil."
"Infinite Refinement Sword Sand can nurture Eighth Rank and above Swordgrass, and it's extremely rare within the sect. Even many Yuanling cultivators have never heard of it. Since you've only recently advanced to the Yuanling stage, it's likely the same for you."
"Due to its extreme scarcity, once a small amount of Sword Sand is condensed in the Mystic Realm, it's usually divided among several Divine Transformation Ancestors."
"If a small portion can be spared for the sect leader and the nine Sword Masters, it's already considered good luck."
Han Bingxuan smiled warmly.
"Today, I've brought some Infinite Refinement Sword Sand for Lu Shidi. The Ancestor appreciates your improvement of the Soul Annihilation Prison Swordgrass and your acquisition of the Eighth Rank Swordgrass Spirit Seed. This is a reward to help you cultivate the Swordgrass."
"Thank you, Ancestor, for bestowing such a precious treasure."
Lu Xuan was overjoyed upon hearing this. He hadn't expected such an exquisite treasure as the Infinite Refinement Sword Sand.
"It seems that after improving the new Sixth Rank Swordgrass, I've gained access to the most core circle of the Sword Sect."
He couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Still in the early Nascent Soul stage, his exceptional talent in Spirit Planting had allowed him to break into the Sword Sect's top circle.
"However, with the existence of the Light Orb, my achievements will not be limited to this."
Lu Xuan had grand ambitions.
After taking out the Infinite Refinement Sword Sand, Han Bingxuan didn't stay long and soon took her leave.
Before leaving, Lu Xuan kept his word and gave two bottles of Fifth Stage Green Dew Condensation and four bottles of Hundred Fruit Spirit Elixir with a similar taste.
Not long after Han Bingxuan's departure, Jian Zhen, the Sword Master, arrived at the Cave Mansion.
"Lu Shidi, your senior brother is here to bother you again."
Jian Zhen's face was filled with a red glow, indicating his excellent mood.
With the improvement of the new Sixth Rank Swordgrass, aside from Lu Xuan himself, the one who benefited the most was this Sword Master.
Based on this contribution alone, he was confident that he could improve the ranking of the Jian Zhen Peak by one more position.
Therefore, he naturally had to thank Lu Xuan, his lucky star.
"Lu Shidi, your contribution to the Sword Peak is so significant that I don't know how to express my gratitude. So, I'm giving you two things, and you can choose whichever you prefer."
Jian Zhen said with a smile.
Immediately, a pile of sword seals, each resembling a small mountain, appeared before him.
"There are two hundred thousand sword seals here, more than enough to purchase two Seventh Rank Magical Treasures, let alone Seventh Rank Spirit Seeds. The number of seeds you can buy will naturally be even greater."
Then, a white light shot out from his sleeve.
A small white jade token hovered in front of Lu Xuan, its surface shimmering with spiritual light. A tiny silver-white dragon coiled around it, and its form was seven to eight parts similar to the flying sword spirit on Jian Zhen's back.
"This token is forged from one of my Lifebound Artifacts, and in a sense, it represents me.
You can use it to exchange for a Seventh Rank treasure in the sect's treasure vault or any of the Sword Palace's pavilions. The type is not limited; it can be a Spirit Seed, material, Magical Treasure, pill, or even a superior cultivation technique or divine ability."
"However, there's something you should pay attention to, Shidi. The token can only be used once, so choose carefully and don't waste this opportunity."
Jian Zhen solemnly instructed.
"Is there such a way to obtain treasures?"
Lu Xuan muttered to himself, surprised that Jian Zhen was willing to offer such an incredible opportunity, allowing him to freely choose any Seventh Rank treasure.
