Chapter 777: Refining the Mystical Method, the Profound Use of Spirits
The remaining Sword-Nurturing Gourd spirit seeds had only undergone abnormal changes and had not yet broken through to become fourth-grade spirit plants.
Lu Chen collected them one by one, placing a small portion into the Yangxuan Sword Sheath to nurture, while continuing to stimulate the majority with the Cave Abyss Sword Monument.
Soon after, he arrived at a spirit field covered with a shallow layer of Five-Colored Spirit Soil.
The Five-Colored Spirit Soil, also known as the Five-Colored Earth, was suitable for cultivating Five Elements-related spirit plants, making it the perfect place to plant the Five Elements Illusion Fruit spirit seed.
At the core of the spirit field...
Lu Chen approached the Eightfold Palace Spirit Plant.
Within the massive Wind Cave Stone, strange winds blew ceaselessly, surrounded by layers of spirit winds, each with its own unique weight and tempo.
The first level of the Eightfold Palace, the Xunyuan Palace of Wind, had quietly blossomed, naturally drawing the spirit winds towards it as if pulled by an invisible force.
As Lu Chen drew closer, the winds shrank countless times, gently drifting within the petals and leaving traces of their passage.
Lu Chen focused his mind on it, instantly understanding the growth state of this seventh-grade spirit plant.
"The first level of the Xunyuan Palace has stabilized. It just needs to be cultivated patiently, but it will still take a long time before it matures."
He thought to himself as he approached the Inverted Eclipse Fruit, a quasi-seventh-grade spirit plant.
With the previous nourishment from the black and white spiritual energies within the Yin-Yang Treasure Bottle, the spirit plant had already taken root and sprouted. The rare black and white mixed shoots had a faint pattern of a black and white taiji emerging around them.
There was also the sixth-grade Tianyuan Fruit spirit plant, which had grown to over a foot tall. Its lush green stalks contained pure and rich vitality, exuding a vibrant and upward-striving aura.
Lu Chen took out a bottle of Snow Dragon Holy Spring and gently sprinkled the pure spirit spring water onto the Tianyuan Fruit spirit plant, providing it with ample nourishment.
Next were the sixth-grade Ziweyin Thunder Fruit and the seventh-grade Green Thunder Vine of the Second Wood.
Lu Chen cast the Spirit Rain Technique on each of them and then took out the Ink Green Thunder Liquid from the Gluttonous Worm Pouch. With his spiritual power, he controlled the thunder liquid, transforming it into a misty, pale green mist that permeated the two high-grade thunder-attributed spirit plants.
The Ziweyin Thunder Fruit had been planted when he first entered the Li Yang Realm, and after being cultivated for nearly thirty years, it had entered a rapid growth stage.
In an environment like the Thunderfire Cave, coupled with Lu Chen's nourishment using the Ink Green Thunder Liquid and various spirit thunders, it wouldn't be long before it reached maturity.
As for the seventh-grade Green Thunder Vine of the Second Wood, Lu Chen had already obtained the first level of the Shenxiao Zhenfa (Divine Empyrean True Law)
from it. The further he progressed, the longer the required incubation period.
Of course, that was just the normal growth trajectory of the spirit plant.
Lu Chen thought to himself as he took out the Divine Wood Green Gourd. A strand of pure and refined wood spirit energy, so pure it was extreme, drifted out from the gourd's mouth and permeated the green vines.
"With this extraordinary treasure, it won't be long before I obtain the second light group."
Lu Chen smiled faintly.
"I've used up most of the Ink Green Thunder Liquid. I should pay another visit to my thunderous beast friend and help Elder Leixi clear out the Thunder Death Crystals while I'm at it."
He made a mental note.
After returning from Fengyuan Star Cave, he felt more relaxed, no longer worried about evil cultivators coveting his possessions. He could now focus all his attention on cultivating spirit plants and raising spirit beasts.
During this period, the Hailou Chamber of Commerce sent a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who brought him fifty Thunder Riot Lotus spirit seeds.
After planting them, Lu Chen once again marveled at the convenience of having the backing of a major power.
Fourth-grade spirit plants were already considered high-grade, and the Thunder Riot Lotus was an extremely rare variety. If he had to collect them on his own, he might have been able to acquire a few, but fifty seeds would have been a pipe dream.
"It would be even better if I could find the Thunder Riot Lotus Condensing Technique."
A thought flashed through his mind.
With the condensing technique, he could continuously harvest the Evil-Exterminating Thunder and amass hundreds or even thousands of them. Even demon spirits and evil beings at the Nascent Soul stage would have to retreat in the face of such power.
At the top, three verdant tea leaves trembled, exuding a refreshing and pure aura that made one feel comfortable and relaxed.
It was indeed the fifth-grade Clear Jade Tea.
Lu Chen had cultivated this tea tree back when he was still at Tianjian Sect. Due to the tea leaves' ability to enhance one's comprehension for a period of time, as well as the attractive rewards offered by the light group, he had searched for another spirit seed and successfully cultivated it to this day.
"These three tea leaves may look humble, but each one of them is worth a thousand gold."
Lu Chen carefully plucked the three verdant tea leaves.
[Clear Jade Tea Leaves, Fifth-grade Spirit Plant. Cultivated with pure and refreshing aura, consuming it greatly enhances a cultivator's comprehension for a period of time. The duration varies depending on the cultivator's cultivation base and spiritual sense.]
[Additionally, it forms a layer of pure aura around the cultivator's body, purifying and protecting against evil and filthy influences.]
After keeping the tea leaves safely, Lu Chen turned his attention to the three white light groups that appeared on the tea tree.
He reached out and gently touched the first one.
The light group silently shattered, turning into countless minuscule specks of light that flowed into his body.
[Harvested one Clear Jade Tea Leaf, obtained a Sixth-grade Treasure, Clear Marrow Jade Liquid.]
A thought flashed through his mind, and a drop of pure and flawless spirit liquid appeared before him.
A faint, refreshing aura emanated from the spirit liquid, forming layer upon layer of subtle green ripples that made the surrounding spiritual energy even more pure and natural.
Lu Chen focused his mind on it, and the information about the spirit liquid immediately appeared in his sea of consciousness.
[Clear Marrow Jade Liquid, Sixth-grade Treasure. Refined from ten-thousand-year-old jade marrow, it can integrate a cultivator's physical body and spiritual sense, greatly increasing the success rate of advancing to the Golden Core stage.]
"Another drop of Clear Marrow Jade Liquid," Lu Chen rejoiced inwardly. Although it wasn't of much use to him anymore, he knew that if he were to sell it, it would undoubtedly spark a frenzy among cultivators and sects alike.
The Foundation Establishment Pills, which enhanced the chances of advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage, were already priceless on the market. And now, with the Clear Marrow Jade Liquid boosting the chances of reaching the Golden Core stage, its value was immeasurable.
He carefully kept the drop of spirit liquid and proceeded to touch the second white light group.
[Harvested one Clear Jade Tea Leaf, obtained Insights into the Sixth-grade Cultivation Art, 'Xuan Tian Qing Wei Mystical Art.']
A torrent of information flooded his sea of consciousness as he gained profound insights into the cultivation art.
Lu Chen stood still, feeling as if he had just experienced a long journey of cultivation, gaining a deeper and clearer understanding of the 'Xuan Tian Qing Wei Mystical Art.'
With a thought, a wisp of clear qi appeared out of thin air and surrounded his body, transforming into a pale green silk garment.
The silk garment, imbued with the clear qi, gave Lu Chen a sense of etherealness.
He extended his hand and gently pushed it forward.
A pale green palm shadow shot out, growing larger as it traveled through the air until it became a giant palm the size of a house. It landed over a hundred meters away, stirring up layers of pure and refreshing qi.
Both the silk garment and the giant palm technique were applications of the 'Xuan Tian Qing Wei Mystical Art.' The former created a protective layer of clear qi around the cultivator, shielding the physical body and soul from insidious influences.
The latter was extremely effective against demons, evil cultivators, and their sinister techniques and artifacts. Although it couldn't be considered a supreme ability, it was indeed a rare secret art capable of purging evil and suppressing demons.
