Chapter 1249: 10,000-li Instant Shadow Talisman
Chapter 1249: 10,000-li Instant Shadow Talisman
Outside the battlefield, a gentle breeze blew past, carrying with it the presence of the Wind-Listening Beast, diligently nurturing the Jiseng Demon Fruit.
A tendril-like vine emerged from the ground, its head poking out to observe everything in the field.
Lu Xuan's divine sense swept over, and he found the Yaokei Vine's main body still in a peach grove hundreds of li away, with just one vine extending to join the commotion.
Bai Yuan and the others knew the situation well, their strengths evenly matched, making it difficult to determine a winner in a short time. Lu Xuan watched for a while before turning to leave.
Just as he was about to head towards the Evil Spirit Land, his gaze caught a familiar figure in the Spirit Field, and he decided to descend.
A grass-like creature with a large lump on its body hurried over on two slender legs.
"Master."
A faint spiritual thought entered Lu Xuan's sea of consciousness.
The grass puppet's hollow eye sockets stared intently at Lu Xuan, and its spiritual thought contained obvious joy.
"Why aren't you joining the excitement?"
Lu Xuan smiled and nodded, asking casually.
"Guarding the Spirit Field."
The grass puppet's weak but determined thought entered Lu Xuan's consciousness.
"Not bad, not bad."
Lu Xuan nodded in praise.
This time, he took a closer look and noticed the significant changes in the grass puppet.
Its intelligence had improved noticeably, and the two arrow vines that had always hung on its shoulders seemed to have merged with the grass puppet, indistinguishable from each other.
"It seems that the drop of Eight-Grade Taiyi Green Spirit Liquid did have an impressive effect, transforming the fundamentally weak grass puppet into its current state."
"It might even be possible for it to break through to the Seven-Grade level."
Lu Xuan muttered to himself.
"With such dedication and loyalty, after you break through, I'll get you a new treasure."
He looked at the grass puppet, which regarded the Four-Grade Arrow Vine as a precious treasure, and promised.
"Thank you... Master..."
The grass puppet's large head shook, its expression one of being overwhelmed by gratitude.
Lu Xuan offered a few words of encouragement and entered the Evil Spirit Field.
As he lifted the restrictions, a chilling aura rushed towards him. With a thought, Ling Gu quietly appeared before him.
"What about those Jie Dan cultivation practitioners?"
Lu Xuan asked coldly.
"Following your instructions, we used various sinister and vicious methods to torture their flesh, souls, and bones, causing them to suffer in every way."
"Under the combined influence of these methods, they died one after another, becoming nutrients for the Spirit Field."
Ling Gu's voice was hoarse as he replied.
"Good."
Lu Xuan nodded expressionlessly.
For these four who had fallen into his hands, it was only a matter of time before their demise.
He walked around the Spirit Field, carefully nurturing the Huangquan Undead Tree, the Fomu Demon Seed, and the remaining few Evil Spirit Plants. Only then did he leave, heading towards various parts of his carried space to cultivate the other high-grade spirit plants.
The Xuanhuang Tree, Yunkong Immortal Vine, and Nine True Divine Leaves had an extremely slow growth rate. A hundred years was like the snap of a finger for these Nine-Grade and Innate Spirit Root plants.
The Jiseng Demon Fruit and Xueming Thunder Gourd had excellent growth due to the fully satisfied cultivation conditions, but their maturity was still far off.
Additionally, the Evergreen Sacred Wood, Feilei Spore King, Wan Duan Divine Wood, and other high-grade spirit plants were growing well, with some even entering the mature stage.
"The maturation cycle of Seven-Grade spirit plants is often over a hundred years, and if cultivated normally, the time required is too long. Once the two Divine Wood Green Vases are filled, we can collect more Divine Wood Green Liquid and use the Great Ripening Technique again."
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
He didn't have the patience to wait for all these high-grade spirit plants to mature naturally. He was just waiting for the number of ripening spirit objects in his hand to be sufficient before using the infallible Great Ripening Technique.
Time flew by as Lu Xuan diligently tended to his spiritual plants, and before he knew it, three years had passed.
During this period, the Sword Sect remained peaceful, with no major events occurring within its walls.
The cultivation world, however, was abuzz with various newsworthy happenings. Lu Xuan, who had been secluded within the sect, paid little attention to these events. He devoted himself to cultivating various techniques and abilities, refining rare treasures harvested from the light cluster, and in his spare time, brewing spiritual brews, inscribing sword talismans, and concocting pills. His days were simple yet fulfilling.
When the True Sword Peak held a celebration for Lu Xuan's achievements, the outside world learned of his breakthrough to the mid-stage of the Yuan Ying realm. Initially, this caused quite a stir, but as Lu Xuan had always maintained a low profile, the excitement gradually subsided.
Lu Xuan was pleased with this, and he wholeheartedly focused on nurturing numerous high-grade spiritual plants.
In his carried space...
"The Chunyang Golden Lotus and the Five Elements Enigma Fruit have both shown signs of unusual changes in their spirit seeds. However, due to insufficiently extreme environments to stimulate and guide the spirit seeds, and the lack of corresponding high-grade spiritual lands and treasures, the degree of mutation is not very high."
"If I want to improve and create new Grade 6 spiritual plants, there's still a long way to go."
Lu Xuan carefully examined the two Grade 5 spirit seeds placed in different locations for improvement, his heart filled with emotion.
Just as he was about to cultivate the Yin-Yang Thunder Extreme Wood, he suddenly sensed a slight anomaly in his carried space.
His divine sense swept through, instantly locking onto the Liu Guangling Ho, a Grade 5 spiritual crane captured from the Demon Realm.
At this moment, the Grade 5 spiritual crane's aura was extremely unstable, and a vortex of spiritual energy appeared around it.
"I've been nurturing it in my carried space all these years, and now the Liu Guangling Ho is finally about to break through to Grade 6."
Lu Xuan immediately understood, and in a flash, he appeared near the spiritual crane.
This spiritual crane had exceptional talent, possessing the potential to grow into a Grade 7 demonic beast. Lu Xuan had kept it in his carried space, feeding it countless Ten-thousand Phenomena Grasses that aided demonic beast growth. Finally, it had reached the peak of Grade 5.
"Break through without worry; I'm here."
With his reassurance, the Liu Guangling Ho inside the vortex of spiritual energy let out a loud cry. Its magnificent wings shimmered with seven-colored divine light, frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.
Nearly an hour later, a resounding cry echoed through the clouds, signaling the Liu Guangling Ho's successful breakthrough to Grade 6.
"Well done, keep up the effort."
Lu Xuan encouraged it with a few words. After the spiritual crane flew off in excitement, his gaze fell upon a quietly emerging white light cluster.
The light cluster flickered slightly, as if beckoning him to touch it.
As soon as he touched its edge, the light cluster silently shattered, transforming into countless tiny specks of light that soared into the sky. In an instant, they coalesced into a slender light river and flowed into Lu Xuan's body.
At that moment, a thought flashed through his sea of consciousness.
[Liu Guangling Ho successfully breaks through to Grade 6, obtaining the Grade 7 treasure, the 10,000-li Instant Shadow Talisman.]
As soon as the thought vanished, a strange talisman scroll quietly appeared before Lu Xuan.
The talisman was semi-transparent, seemingly merging with the void, its surface flickering with barely visible traces of phantom shadows.
Lu Xuan's mind focused on the semi-transparent talisman, instantly revealing its detailed information.
[10,000-li Instant Shadow Talisman, a Grade 7 talisman scroll. Upon activation, it can create over a hundred phantom shadows, making it difficult to distinguish the real one. The true body hides among them, and within a few breaths, it can teleport to a location 10,000 li away.]
[It can be used multiple times. Each activation requires replenishing spiritual power with high-grade spirit stones or other treasures. Once the core talisman array within loses its effectiveness, the talisman scroll gradually becomes ordinary.]
