Chapter 519: The Most Beloved Pill Master Among Cultivators
Lu Chen gazed at the White Bone Killing Sword Grass within the Spirit Soil, about to retrieve it and store it in his Gluttonous Beast Pouch, when a sudden idea struck him.
His spiritual sense slowly permeated the spirit seed.
Instantly, he felt as if he had entered a world of slaughter, with sword intent soaring into the skies and limitless killing intent.
The Clear Sword Heart in Lu Chen's dantian rotated slightly, and under the perception of his spiritual sense, the slaughterous sword intent underwent subtle changes.
What was originally profound and abstruse, difficult to comprehend, suddenly became traceable, leaving traces of sword intent in the depths of his sea of consciousness like hanging antlers.
When Lu Chen's mental state gradually felt weary, he withdrew from the world of slaughterous sword intent and stood quietly in place, as if enlightenment had dawned on him.
"With this Clear Sword Heart, my talent in the Sword Dao is already among the strongest. Once I formally cultivate the White Bone Killing Sword Grass and contemplate it for a long time, I will surely find the best method to cultivate this sword grass."
Lu Chen carefully stored away the White Bone Killing Sword Spirit Seed from the Spirit Soil, marveling inwardly.
However, after staying in that world of slaughterous sword intent for too long, his mental state seemed to be slightly affected.
Gazing at the Rock-Armored Turtle rolling in the mud of the distant small lake, a nameless fire rose within him, and he felt an urge to fly over and give it a good thrashing.
"Such a wonderful spirit beast. I shouldn't be so irritable."
"I can't help it, it's my pet, my pet."
Lu Chen calmed his mind and recited a cleansing mantra, which soothed him considerably.
"I still need to pay attention to this subtle influence, or I might unknowingly transform from a gentle Spirit Herbologist to a bloodthirsty Sword Cultivator."
He reminded himself.
With the day still young, he decided to inspect every corner of the Spirit Field, tending to the minute needs of each spirit plant.
Within the Spirit Field, the Water Firefly Grass, which had the largest planting area, had entered a phase of rapid growth.
The slender indigo leaves were dotted with glowing specks, and when the breeze blew, they shimmered like ripples on a lake, creating a mesmerizing sight.
On the four Arrow Vines, the tiny spirit arrows that had formed hinted at the potential of a fourth-grade spirit plant. The small arrows, with the vines as their bows, were ready to be fired.
Lu Chen had already mastered the Instant Arrow Technique to perfection. His spiritual power surged, and the arrow-shaped spiritual power shot out, piercing the small arrows that had formed on the vines.
The small arrows seemed to have encountered their heart's desire, and they stood erect, unable to contain their excitement.
The Jade Dew Fruit had grown to half the height of a person, and pure spirit dew still remained on its leaves. The transparent and clear spirit dew tempted one to pluck the leaves and drink the dew directly.
In addition, the several fourth-grade spirit plants in the Spirit Field, such as the Earthfire Heart Lotus and the Mysterious Insect Vine, were all thriving, and everything was developing in a positive direction.
For the following period, Lu Chen remained in the cave mansion, not venturing out, and spent his days contentedly among the spirit plants and beasts.
"All the Vitality Concealing Grasses have finally matured completely."
Lu Chen arrived at the edge of the Spirit Field, gazing at the remaining sixteen Vitality Concealing Grasses, which resembled common weeds. A look of harvest joy, akin to that of a seasoned farmer, appeared on his face.
Previously, in order to enjoy the thrill of opening a large number of Light Orbs at once, he had not harvested the spirit plants as soon as they matured. Instead, he had planned to accumulate more and reap a bountiful harvest.
Among the sixteen Vitality Concealing Grasses, the average quality was quite decent. Several were of good quality, and one was even of superior quality, which made Lu Chen extremely satisfied.
After storing them all in a jade box, sixteen white light orbs silently emerged on the surface of the Spirit Soil, flickering subtly in various parts of the Spirit Field, exerting an inexplicable attraction.
Lu Chen smiled faintly, and as his figure flashed by, the sixteen white light orbs exploded almost simultaneously without a sound, transforming into streams of light that flowed into Lu Chen's body.
【Harvest...】
Sixteen rewards either appeared directly in Lu Xuan's hands or flooded his mind as a wealth of information.
Among them were seven Tier 3 Spirit Nurturing Grass Pearls, six Tier 3 Foundation Establishment Pills, and three Tier 3 Foundation Establishment Pill formula experience packs.
After digesting and absorbing the information in his mind, Lu Xuan's understanding of pill refining reached an entirely new level. Many uncertainties from the past were now crystal clear, and he gained deeper insights into various intricacies of the process.
"I've achieved a minor accomplishment in refining Foundation Establishment Pills."
"Even among the core pill masters of the Pill Hall, I'd be considered quite exceptional."
Many pill masters in the Pill Hall, who had been refining pills for years, might not have gained as much experience as Lu Xuan had from absorbing just one or two experience packs.
The materials for refining Tier 3 pills were limited and had to be prioritized for those with more seniority and higher cultivation levels. Perhaps many of his fellow disciples in the Pill Hall rarely got the chance to refine pills even once a month.
With these thoughts in mind, Lu Xuan decided to pay a visit to the Pill Hall to turn in the new batch of Vitality Concealing Grass that he had been commissioned to cultivate.
He sent out a transmission talisman to summon the Fat Bird, which soon arrived to carry him to the Pill Hall.
"Brother Lu, you're here," a pill master with sharp eyes exclaimed as soon as Lu Xuan landed in the massive square in front of the Pill Hall, greeting him with a warm smile.
"Brother Lu!"
"Brother Lu, it's been a while," others called out.
Lu Xuan responded to each greeting with a smile, his jaw growing stiff from maintaining it for so long.
"Brother Lu seems to be quite popular among the pill masters of the Pill Hall," Guan Wan remarked, saving him from the awkward situation.
The gentle-mannered woman looked at Lu Xuan's slightly embarrassed expression and teased him softly.
"I'm undeserving of such high regard from my fellow Pill Hall disciples," Lu Xuan said, wiping nonexistent beads of sweat from his forehead.
"It's only natural that he's well-liked," Guan Wan said. "After all, you're currently the most sought-after Spirit Herbologist in the sect. Any spiritual herb that falls into your hands is sure to be successfully cultivated, and the quality is always far above average."
"As a pill refiner, who wouldn't want to be on good terms with a talented Spirit Herbologist? It means access to higher-quality pill refining materials, which can significantly impact the final product," she explained.
"Moreover, Brother Lu is already a core pill master of the Pill Hall. Just based on your pill refining skills, you've surpassed most of the sect's disciples," she added.
"Sister Guan, please don't praise me anymore," Lu Xuan said with a smile as he took out a delicate jade box from his storage bag. He opened it to reveal thirty unremarkable-looking Vitality Concealing Grasses inside.
"Once again, they're all fully mature. As expected of Brother Lu," Guan Wan said, her eyes sparkling with delight.
Pill refining, artifact forging, and spirit herb cultivation all had certain success rates associated with them.
But Lu Xuan seemed to defy logic, as the spirit herbs he cultivated always had a 100% success rate, and many of them were of high quality.
"Out of these thirty Vitality Concealing Grasses, only eighteen are of ordinary quality. Among them, nine are of good quality, and surprisingly, three are of superior quality," Guan Wan exclaimed.
"The average quality is noticeably higher than the previous batch of Vitality Concealing Grasses. It seems that your skill in spirit herb cultivation has improved even further, Brother Lu," she praised.
