Chapter 815: The Primordial Yang True Fire Furnace
Chapter 815: The Primordial Yang True Fire Furnace
After a brief stay at the Fengyuan Star Cave, Lu Chen returned to the Leihuodong Cave.
Life returned to its former calm and uneventful state.
Unknowingly, two years passed.
During this time, he remained in his cave abode, occasionally visiting the Star-Picking Tower and the Fengyuan Star Cave, and rarely venturing into the Thunder Sea.
His days were mundane yet fulfilling.
But Lu Chen had long grown accustomed to this life and even relished in its simplicity and contentment.
What more could one desire when merely cultivating spirit herbs could bring opportunities and treasures that other Core Formation cultivators could only dream of?
Sword Grass Spirit Field.
Lu Chen focused his attention on a tiny sword grass beneath him, his body buzzing with sword intent. Subtle sword auras emanated from his fingertips, carrying the profound sword intent of the sun, moon, and stars, and merged into the sword grass.
The tiny spirit herb was the sixth-grade Move the Stars and Replace the Sun Sword Grass. With the aid of the Clear Sword Heart and Thunderous Sword Heart, he had finally gained a preliminary understanding of the corresponding sword technique.
Although the sword technique was not yet complete, it was more than sufficient to cultivate the Move the Stars and Replace the Sun Sword Grass in its early growth stage.
The sword grass sprout was about three inches long, its straight blade reaching towards the sky. Countless fine sword auras danced around it, hinting at the changing mysteries of the stars.
After tending to the sword grass, Lu Chen continued his inspection of the spirit field, checking on the other two sword-attributed spirit herbs.
There were over twenty fourth-grade Thousand Thunder Sword Grasses, artfully arranged around the Cave Abyss Sword Stela. Silver-white sword auras raged nearby, and fine arcs of lightning occasionally jumped across the sword grass blades before merging back into them.
In addition, more than ten gourd vines hung from the steep cliffs, each bearing three to five mottled, dark green gourds of varying sizes.
As a gentle breeze blew, the dark green gourds swayed gently, emitting crisp and clear sword cries. Even from a distance, one could sense the extreme sharpness of the sword aura within.
These were fourth-grade Little Cave Abyss Sword Gourds, improved and stimulated by the Cave Abyss Sword Stela, containing a trace of the Cave Abyss Sword Sect's inherited sword aura, making them far more powerful than their predecessor, the Sword-Nurturing Gourd.
After tending to the numerous sword grass spirit herbs in the sword grass spirit field, Lu Chen continued on his way and arrived at the shore of the small lake.
Due to the three not-yet-hatched crocodile dragons he had obtained from the Black Water Star Cave, he had expanded the size of the lake several times to provide enough space for the Fire Dragon, Rock-Armored Turtle, and others to move around freely in the future.
In the spirit field by the lake shore, over a hundred Ice Firefly Herbs were planted.
After being cultivated for a considerable amount of time, the Ice Firefly Herbs had entered their mature stage.
The deep blue, slender leaves were intertwined, emitting a faint chill, and a thin layer of frost had formed on the ground.
Lu Chen walked into the ridges of the spirit field, and with a thought, a mass of ashen-black cloud appeared above the Ice Firefly Herbs.
The clouds churned for a moment before fine strands of spiritual rain began to fall, dripping onto the leaves of the spirit herbs and soaking into the spirit soil, nourishing the numerous spirit herbs.
"Looks like I'll be able to reap another wave of cultivation rewards soon," Lu Chen thought to himself.
"Although I'm still far from the late Core Formation stage, I should be able to reveal my mid-Core Formation cultivation now."
"Otherwise, if I hide my strength too deeply and am discovered by beings like the Treasure Tower's spirit artifact, it would be hard to explain."
"As for how I surpassed most cultivators in a short period of time..."
"I'm just a spirit herbologist who never leaves his cave abode, constantly cultivating in seclusion and using high-grade spirit herbs to exchange for cultivation pills and treasures."
"I even sacrificed my combat power, choosing to only increase my cultivation, neglecting to learn divine abilities and secret techniques, and forgoing the accumulation of artifacts and treasures."
He then entered the core Spirit Herb Field area.
The lowest grade of spirit herbs grown here were sixth-grade, and among them were even rarer seventh-grade spirit herbs like the Ethereal Wood Blue Thunder Vine, Octavia Palace, Azure Dragon Wood, and Crimson Rainbow Fairy Feathers.
Ordinary Golden Core realm herbologists might occasionally be able to cultivate one or two relatively common sixth-grade spirit herbs, but when it came to rare varieties like the Heaven-Defying Yin-Yang Fruit and Yellow Beam Wood, they could only dream of cultivating them.
As for seventh-grade spirit herbs, they were even more out of reach for ordinary sects and clans.
"My yearning for the Heavenly Star Dou Sword Array has grown stronger."
Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh as he thought about the rare spirit herbs he possessed. Even with the protection of the sixth-grade Wanzhang Xuanjing Array, he still lacked a sense of security.
His attention returned to the spirit field.
The first level of the Octave Palace, the Xunyuan Palace, had already blossomed with mystical flowers. Unnamed divine winds blew from the petals, billowing endlessly before silently disappearing as if connected to an unknown realm in the void.
The sixth-grade Confining Spirit Cage had grown to the size of a small lantern, with numerous slender branches entwined, forming a natural array.
Lu Chen tossed a fresh demon insect onto the spirit herb, and suddenly, the top of the lantern quietly opened, pulling the insect inside.
It then began to spin rapidly, and the many branches quickly closed, completely entrapping the insect within, as if it were trapped in layer after layer of restrictions with no hope of escape. It could only watch silently as its body was absorbed by the spirit herb.
He then entered a spirit field separated by restrictions, where the carcass of a coiled and spiraling tuo dragon was laid out, stretching to over twenty zhang in length.
Three faint white jade orbs floated around the carcass, and the tuo dragon pups inside absorbed the faint dragon qi emanating from their mother, quietly awaiting the day of their awakening.
In the spirit field, both the sixth-grade Dragon Transformation Grass and seventh-grade Azure Dragon Wood were thriving.
Under the nourishment of abundant dragon qi and the Han Yu Cobra carcass, the Azure Dragon Wood had only grown a small seedling, but beneath the spirit soil, it had already connected with the heavens and the earth.
Its thick and sturdy roots spread out, undulating like a giant dragon lying dormant.
After carefully cultivating them, Lu Chen left the core spirit field and continued to inspect the remaining spirit herbs outside.
"The Yuan Yang Wood has matured."
He gazed at a pure white spirit tree in the corner and murmured.
The spirit tree exuded waves of scorching heat, and its trunk was adorned with pure white spirit patterns. The faint flame-like white light seemed capable of dispelling all the gloom and filth in the world.
When he had purchased spirit herbs related to artifact refinement from the Commerce Division, the higher-ups in the Commerce Guild had found out and specially sent over this seedling of the fifth-grade Yuan Yang Wood.
It was from the same batch as the Wugen Wood, but because the Yuan Yang Wood was a fifth-grade spirit herb, it took much longer to mature.
Lu Chen's palm turned into a translucent jade color, and the scorching heat emanating from the Yuan Yang Wood had no effect on him. With ease, he pulled out the entire spirit tree, roots and all, without causing any damage.
A white light cluster quietly appeared.
Lu Chen reached out and gently touched the surface of the light cluster, and it silently shattered, condensing into a slender ray of light. Within the light river, a cauldron shadow floated up and down before swiftly entering Lu Chen's body.
At the same time, a thought flashed through his sea of consciousness.
Harvested a Yuan Yang Wood, obtained a sixth-grade treasure, the Primordial Yang True Fire Furnace.
As the thought flashed through his mind, a small, exquisite red-gold furnace appeared before Lu Chen.
