Chapter 359 - Sword Peacock

  After the cold female cultivator left, Lu Xuan looked at the sword peacock she handed to him.

  This sword grass is very unique, and it can shrink and stretch like a peacock spreading its tail.

  When it stretches, it seems that many real sword qi are differentiated, and when it shrinks, it is a dark green flying sword, but the sword body is thicker than ordinary sword grass.

  At this time, the condition of this sword peacock does not look very good. There is a faint black gas lingering around the sword body, and it cannot be dispelled even by using the magic spells of purifying spirits and exorcising evil spirits.

  There are also black spots of different sizes on the sword body, which are tightly attached to the sword grass like psoriasis, floating around, as if they have vitality.

  Lu Xuan roughly understood the situation of Su Manman's sword peacock. When he was about to go to find Shen Ye, a familiar voice sounded from his ears.

  "Junior Brother Lu is so lucky. I didn't expect to meet Junior Sister Su. It seems that they have a deep friendship."

  Shen Ye, who has a gentle temperament, walked out from the corner with a dark black sword box on his back, with a smile on his face.

  "Junior Sister Su is the daughter of our sect's elder who has reached the Jindan stage. If Junior Brother Lu can become a Taoist partner with her, then his future will be limitless."

  Shen Ye's expression was somewhat teasing.

  "Senior Brother Shen, please don't make fun of me."

  "Senior Sister Su and I have a huge gap in family background, talent and cultivation. Such a plot only appears in folk stories."

  "Besides, I put all my thoughts on cultivating spiritual plants and raising spiritual beasts, so I don't have time to think about those."

  Lu Xuan smiled bitterly and said.

  Because of the white light ball, he has many secrets. If he finds a Taoist partner and is bumped into by chance, it will be difficult to explain.

  Therefore, he currently has no idea of ​​a romantic relationship.

  "Okay, stop joking. Junior Brother, are you here this time to obtain the sword grass spirit seeds or to hand in sword grass?"

  Seeing Lu Xuan like this, Shen Ye asked with a serious expression.

  "Most of the sword grass spirit seeds I got from the Sword Hall are already mature. I came here this time to hand them over to the hall."

  After entering the Sword Hall, you can get sword grass spirit seeds of varying grades from the Sword Hall for free. However, after planting and cultivating, you need to hand them over to the Sword Hall to prevent the sword grass from being lost to the outside world.

  If the loss rate is too high during the cultivation process, the Sword Hall will send fellow disciples to investigate and verify, and it will affect the subsequent supply of spirit seeds.

  The Sword Hall will evaluate the submitted sword grass based on the quantity, grade, quality, etc., and decide on the next supply of sword grass spirit seeds. If the performance is extremely good, various rare treasures will be rewarded.

  Lu Xuan took out the mature sword grass from the storage bag.

  Ten ordinary second-grade sword grasses, one third-grade starlight sword grass, and two third-grade wind and thunder sword grasses.

  "Ten second-grade sword grasses, seven ordinary quality, and three good quality."

  Shen Ye counted the sword grasses that Lu Xuan took out.

  "A third-grade Starlight Sword Grass. Judging from its appearance, Junior Brother Lu has made great achievements in the Starlight Sword Art."

  "It's because of his hard practice every day."

  Lu Xuan said with a smile.

  This is indeed the case. In order to better cultivate this Starlight Sword Grass, he has to use Starlight Sword Qi countless times every day. He made up for his shortcomings with hard work, and only then did he achieve such an effect today.

  "Two mutant wind and thunder sword grasses. It seems that Junior Brother has indeed mastered the method to stably improve ordinary sword grasses."

  Shen Ye looked at the two dark black sword grasses containing wind and thunder power in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

  "I remember that Junior Brother Lu took twenty ordinary sword grass spirit seeds from the sword hall. Now you have ten second-grade sword grasses and two mutant third-grade wind and thunder sword grasses. It's already very good."

  He thought that the rest of the spirit seeds were all damaged during the improvement process.

  However, he also knew that the mutant sword grass was not so easy to get, so he still praised Lu Xuan.

  "Well, Senior Brother Shen, the remaining few sword grasses are still alive, but I'm trying to see if I can find a way to condense them."   

  Lu Xuan said truthfully.

  He has been deeply hidden in his cultivation treasures, but he doesn't mind showing his talent in spiritual plants.

  This kind of talent will not endanger others. On the contrary, it can also seek huge benefits for the sect. As long as others are not informed of the white light ball and the grasp of the state of the spiritual plants, there will be no big problem.

  The better the spiritual plant talent shown, the easier it will be for him to obtain various high-grade spiritual plants from the sect, and open the light balls with richer rewards, forming a virtuous circle.

  "Huh? Junior brother, what did you say?"

  Shen Ye, who always looked calm and indifferent, suddenly widened his pupils.

  "Junior brother means that the other sword grass spirit seeds are not only still alive, but have even successfully mutated. They are already studying the method of condensing the wind and thunder sword grass?!"

  There was a bit of disbelief in his tone.

  "It's still in the exploratory stage, just a little bit of clues."

  Lu Xuan said cautiously.

  "Junior brother said there are some clues, so it's probably stable."

  Shen Ye looked at Lu Xuan and said faintly.

  After dealing with Lu Xuan many times, he also had some understanding of Lu Xuan's cautious character, and understood that if he was not extremely sure, he would not leak this news to himself.

  Lu Xuan stroked his chin and smiled.

  "If Junior Brother Lu really studies the method of condensing the seeds of the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, as long as the Sword Hall ensures that it is effective and can obtain the spiritual seeds of the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass in batches, then Junior Brother will have done a great job!"

  "The hall will definitely reward you well, Junior Brother."

  Shen Ye adjusted his breathing, and after calming down, he said to Lu Xuan.

  "After I have mastered it completely, I will come to see Senior Brother Shen again."

  Lu Xuan promised Shen Ye.

  When he was still in the Qi training stage, Shen Ye had a keen eye and gave him a sword grass to try to cultivate. After learning about Lu Xuan's talent in this area, he even introduced him to the Sword Hall and took the initiative to give Lu Xuan the extremely rare Sword Thousand Owl spiritual seeds to cultivate.

  Lu Xuan would naturally return the favor and repay his kindness.

  "Thank you very much, Junior Brother."

  Shen Ye cupped his hands and said solemnly.

  At present, there are only about twenty methods to condense seeds of the third-grade sword grass in the sword hall. If a new third-grade sword grass can be obtained, Lu Xuan's status in the sword hall will be greatly improved, and he, as the recommender, can also benefit from it.

  "By the way, Senior Brother Shen, I just learned about the fourth-grade sword grass, the sword peacock, when chatting with Senior Sister Su. I wonder if there are any corresponding spiritual seeds in the hall now?"

  Lu Xuan asked Shen Ye.

  "Yes, yes!"

  Shen Ye said quickly.

  "There is a sword peacock spiritual seed in the treasure house. It was originally kept just in case, but if you need it, I will immediately apply to the elders of the hall for the Dan formation."

  "Wait for a while, when a new sword peacock matures, I will condense the seeds to supplement the treasure house."

  The fourth-grade sword grass spiritual seeds are extremely rare. Only a few disciples of the sword hall are qualified to plant them, and they have to apply for them a long time in advance.

  But in order to meet Lu Xuan's needs as much as possible, Shen Ye didn't care about those things, and even set his sights on the spiritual seeds in the storehouse.
