Chapter 354: Starlight Sword Intent, Selling Pills
Before Lu Chen was a mature starlight swordgrass, about three feet long, pointing straight to the sky like a sharp sword.
The blade was a deep blue, with countless twinkling stars on its surface. When he focused his attention, he could sense the sharp sword intent emanating from each star.
Lu Chen's hand turned into a translucent jade color as he slowly pulled the starlight swordgrass out of the spirit soil.
The root system of the swordgrass resembled a hilt, pristine and untouched.
"What a naturally occurring sword!" Lu Chen exclaimed, his mind focusing on the plant. Suddenly, a piece of information floated into his consciousness.
Starlight Swordgrass, a third-rate spirit herb, nurtured and cultivated by starlight sword qi. When mature, the swordgrass contains subtle stellar power that can harness starlight to defeat enemies.
Lu Chen bent his finger and plucked the starlight swordgrass, causing a clear sword ring. Countless stars flashed, spewing out numerous sword auras like tiny meteors.
He stored the swordgrass in his pouch and turned his attention to the silent, white light cluster that had appeared.
The light cluster flickered slightly, as if inviting him to reach out and touch it.
Lu Chen extended his hand and gently touched the surface of the light cluster. Countless light spots exploded, carrying an almost imperceptible hint of sword intent, which flowed into Lu Chen's body.
Harvested a third-rate starlight swordgrass and obtained starlight sword intent.
In an instant, Lu Chen's spirit soared as if he had entered the boundless night sky, surrounded by twinkling stars, each rotating in a profound and mysterious manner.
When he returned to his physical body, Lu Chen felt his mind flooded with sword intent. After digesting this newfound knowledge, he seemed to gain a newfound understanding, and the Wind and Thunder Sword in his hand twitched.
Dozens of sword rays flashed like meteors, striking a distant ordinary spirit tree with different trajectories.
The speed was astonishing, reducing the spirit tree to rubble in the blink of an eye.
"Starlight Sword Intent. After absorbing it, my control over the Starlight Sword Manual has reached a whole new level," Lu Chen thought in awe.
After obtaining the spirit seed of the starlight swordgrass, he also acquired the third-rate Starlight Sword Manual from the Sword Hall. He had diligently studied it for a long time before finally grasping the basics and reaching a level where he could cultivate swordgrass.
Over the years, although he had practiced it from time to time, his swordsmanship had not improved much.
But after absorbing the starlight sword intent from the light cluster, it was as if he had been cultivating this sword technique for decades or even centuries. With each swing of his sword, starlight sword rays naturally appeared, and he handled it with ease.
"Hmm, those swordsmanship cultivators painstakingly cultivate their sword manuals, but I focus on cultivating spirit herbs. Yet, in the end, my swordsmanship has reached the same level," Lu Chen thought, his face thick with shamelessness.
"If we only look at the results and not the process, then I'm also a genius in the way of the sword!"
Now that the starlight swordgrass had matured, the only swordgrass left in the spirit field was the wind and thunder swordgrass, which was at different stages of growth. Lu Chen planned to try and condense the swordgrass spirit seed using these ten stalks of wind and thunder swordgrass, to see if he could change the method of obtaining the spirit seed from promoting mutations with the Profound Sword Sheath to mass production.
As for the fourth-rate Sword Plucking Falcon, Lu Chen had started cultivating the corresponding sword manual later, and due to its higher grade, it would still take a long time to mature.
It had been over a month since he returned to the sect, and Lu Chen decided to visit the small courtyard in Jianmen Town to nourish the Blood Curse Flower, Sacred Infant Fruit, and the other plants.
He quietly slipped out of the sect, riding an ordinary flying sword, and arrived at the courtyard.
As he entered the courtyard after disarming the Thousand Illusions Misty Smoke Array, a pale red palm print landed on his calf.
Focusing his eyes, Lu Chen saw that the Blood Spirit Palm Plant was circling him, conveying its thirst for blood.
He quickly took out a bottle of Flood Dragon Essence Blood from his storage bag and poured it directly onto the pale red palm.
After feeding the Blood Spirit Palm Plant, Lu Chen proceeded to nurture the other three Underworld Spirit Herbs in the courtyard.
The Longevity Peach needed fresh demon beast flesh and blood, the Blood Curse Flower absorbed a large amount of Flood Dragon Essence Blood, and as for the Sacred Infant Fruit, he squeezed out countless soulless infant souls from the Wood Infant.
After tending to these three fifth-rate Underworld Spirit Herbs, Lu Chen took out the formless Vengeful Spirit Mud from the Gluttonous Worm Pouch.
"Please come this way, Senior Daoist."
A young man in the middle of the Training Qi stage, upon seeing Lu Xuan enter the main hall, greeted him with a fervent smile. He swept his spiritual sense over Lu Xuan and immediately sensed the profound depth of his spiritual power, causing his expression to turn apprehensive as he bowed respectfully.
"Mm, lead the way upstairs."
Lu Xuan nodded slightly, gesturing for the young cultivator to guide him to the higher floors.
The first floor mostly catered to the needs of cultivators at the Training Qi stage, which held little interest for Lu Xuan at his current stage.
Led by the young cultivator, he entered a room with a rustic charm.
Soon, a pretty maid served him with spiritual fruit and tea.
Lu Xuan had just taken a sip of tea when an elderly man emerged to greet him.
"Apologies for the wait, please forgive me, fellow Daoist."
"My surname is Li, and I am the manager of this branch of the Wanbao Building in Jianmen Town. Please let me know if there is anything you require."
The elderly man was short and stout, with a kind smile on his face, and he spoke with enthusiasm.
"It's nice to meet you, Fellow Daoist Li. I am a wandering cultivator, and I happened to pass by this place. I wish to sell a few treasures."
Lu Xuan replied casually, his face concealed by the Thousand Soul Mask, making it seem as though this was his natural appearance. The mask's features were lively and natural, allowing for expressive facial movements.
"May I ask what treasures Fellow Daoist wishes to sell?"
The elderly man inquired with a smile.
Lu Xuan waved his hand, and two pills, each the size of a dragon's eye, appeared in his palm. The pills emanated spiritual patterns and radiant light, and one could sense the dense spiritual energy emanating from them even from a distance.
"Foundation Establishment Pills! Two of them!"
The short and stout old man exclaimed in surprise as soon as he laid eyes on the Foundation Establishment Pills.
"Indeed, two high-quality Foundation Establishment Pills."
The old man in charge of the Wanbao Building branch was not to be underestimated, especially given his proximity to the Tianjian Sect in Jianmen Town. His strength and insight were formidable.
He took a few more glances, confirming without a doubt that they were Foundation Establishment Pills.
A fiery desire ignited within him.
Foundation Establishment Pills were tightly controlled by major sects and powers, and possessing one meant having the potential to advance to the Foundation Establishment realm. For cultivators from small families or wandering cultivators, they held immense allure.
Foundation Establishment Pills rarely made it to the market, and when they did, they were snatched up by countless wandering cultivators, who would spare no expense to obtain them.
"I want to purchase both of these Foundation Establishment Pills, and here in Jianmen Town, the Wanbao Building boasts the best reputation and financial resources. Rest assured, I will make an offer that will surely satisfy you, Fellow Daoist."
"May I ask if you have any specific requirements, Fellow Daoist?"
"I do not need spirit stones. For these two Foundation Establishment Pills and this fourth-grade Soul-Luring Lamp artifact, I wish to trade for high-grade spirit seeds or demon beast eggs and cubs."
"Alternatively, I would consider high-grade pill cauldrons, special spirit soils, or spirit liquids."
Lu Xuan spoke slowly, and as he finished, a gust of yin wind blew by, and a bizarre lamp appeared in his hand.
Its handle was made of white bones, its shade was crafted from human skin, and its dark red tassels swayed like countless tentacles, seemingly ready to lure away the souls of those who gazed upon it.
