Chapter 454: Chapter 452 Mother’s Seed_1
Sword Gate Town.
Lu Xuan looked up at the plaque of Wanbao Building, then stepped
into the hall.
At this moment, his face was covered with a mask as thin as a cicada’s wings that transformed him into an ordinary middle-aged Cultivator.
The mask was a four-level Magical Tool, the Thousand Masks, obtained from the Ghost Face Mushroom Light Group. It could change the appearance and aura of a Cultivator.
“This way, please, Daoist friend.”
As soon as he entered the hall, the manager of the Jianmen Town branch of Wanbao Building, an affable and plump elder, detected the surging Spiritual Power within Lu Xuan and went up to greet him.
Lu Xuan followed the elder to the third floor of Wanbao Building.
“I wonder how this old man may assist you?”
After a beautiful servant brought the Spirit Fruit Spiritual Tea, the chubby elder asked Lu Xuan with a smile.
“I have quite a few Elixirs in my possession that I intend to sell, would Wanbao Building be interested?”
Lu Xuan voiced hoarsely.
Since his Alchemy Levels for the Yuan Cultivating Pill and Spirit Gathering Pill had reached the grandmaster realm, Lu Xuan, not wanting to attract too much attention, only displayed less than 30% of his collection at the Dan Palace previously. He decided to secretly sell the rest.
“Oh? May this old man take a look?”
Lu Xuan nodded, flicked his hand gently, and over ten elixir bottles appeared before the chubby elder.
The amount of elixir surprised the elder, so he took a moment to pick up two bottles and scrutinized them closely.
“First Grade Qi Cultivation Pill, Second Grade Imbued Spirit Pill, both of exceptionally good quality.”
During the alchemy process, Lu Xuan intentionally picked the best-quality elixirs, so the items laid before the elder were of the highest quality batch.
After the elder finished evaluating the elixirs, he proposed a price slightly higher than that of the Dan Palace. Naturally, Lu Xuan had no objections.
In the end, the elixirs sold for a total of over 8,000 Spirit Stones.
After the transaction was completed, the chubby elder personally saw Lu Xuan to the front door of Wanbao Building.
“If you have elixirs of similar quality in the future, you are welcome to sell them or trade them at Wanbao Building.”
He said to Lu Xuan reluctantly.
Having a competent alchemist at hand was naturally something to be eagerly courted.
“Okay, if I have more elixirs in the future, I will consider Wanbao Building first.”
Lu Xuan said indifferently.
He had not expected that alchemy at the grandmaster level would be so profitable. The two types of elixirs, after deducting the cost of the spiritual medicine, brought in several thousand Spirit Stones in total.
This was enough to buy several Fourth Grade Spirit Seeds.
“It’s a shame that the elixirs are still of a low rank. Making low-grade elixirs consumes a lot of time, which delays farming.”
“If I had enough Pill Formula Experience Packages to open, I could completely achieve financial freedom with Spirit Stones, even prioritizing Alchemy over cultivation.”
He inwardly sighed.
The profit margin of elixirs was substantial, but unfortunately, he only had advanced knowledge in two low-rank pill formulas. In addition to the fact that his Alchemy Level was entirely derived from the Light Cluster rewards, farming remained his top priority.
He found a secluded corner, and with the activation of spiritual power, the Thousand Masks on his face subtly changed. In an instant, he transformed into a simple, honest-looking youth.
He then entered a new underworld court.
Lu Xuan walked around the Fourth Grade Thousand Illusion Cloud Smoke Formation, he collected the Array Plate and Array Flag, then took out the Array flag and Array Plate of the Illusion and Disappearance Five Elements Array, and arranged them around the courtyard.
Faint streams of elemental spiritual power were flowing, and countless elemental spirit beast illusions flashed past, disappearing into the formation.
“The fourth-grade formation method has been updated to a fifth-grade formation method. The formation’s defense and killing power have significantly increased. Plus, with the constant appearance of the Void Nightmare Eye, the safety of the multitude of underworld spiritual plants in the courtyard has greatly improved.”
Lu Xuan passed through the formation and entered the courtyard.
A gust of yin wind hit him directly, chilling his entire body instantly.
He felt something unusual under his feet, and he looked down to see a huge, blood-red hand that had sprung up from the spirit soil, strapping around his calf and frantically absorbing his blood, causing the blood energy in his body to surge.
Perhaps it had been starved for a long time, the huge hand of the Blood Spirit Palm Ginseng looked somewhat shriveled.
“Poor thing, you have become so skinny.”
Lu Xuan quickly got out three bottles of Water Dragon Essence Blood from his storage bag and doused it entirely on the red hand, which was growing bigger in size.
The hand, like a finger, immediately regained its vitality, twisting and changing constantly, greedily absorbing the Water Dragon Essence Blood.
Lu Xuan came to the Blood Scourge Flower, another massive bloodsucker.
At the scent of blood in the courtyard, the numerous long blood vessels on the Hollow Blood Ball, which were entwined together, were slowly writhing, getting faster and faster. It looked as if they would burst at any minute, enveloping the entire courtyard.
Lu Xuan took out five bottles of Water Dragon Essence Blood and sprinkled it on the long blood vessels.
Through the layers of blood vessels via his spiritual sense, he could see an endless sea of blood within the blood ball.
In the sea of blood stood a proud blood-colored flower that bloomed and withered in instants. Its base was the sea of blood, and it seemed ready to break through the countless blood vessels at any time to show the world its enchanting and peculiar charm.
“The Fifth Grade Blood Sin Flower has entered the maturity period. It looks like I will need to take a trip to Thousand Dragon Lake and run a check-up of sorts on the Dragon Turtle hatchlings.”
“I wonder if I’ll get a chance to check on that old Dragon Turtle.”
Feeling his mentality bloating, Lu Xuan took a deep breath, quickly adjusting and shooing this unrealistic thought from his mind.
He further took out the demon beast meat bought at various stall shops from his storage bag and buried it around the root system of the Strange Longevity Peach.
Already, small spiritual peaches were ripening on the peach tree, milkily fragrant. Like newborn life, they were filled with enticing aroma.
The Filthy Bug Grass had lost its original shape and had become a mass of filth, thriving in the Underworld Court.
All eighteen Mutated Thousand Worm Hands had taken root and sprouted, looking like eighteen elongated arms hooked together, a far cry from their terrifying appearance when they were first discovered in the Secret Land.
When these eighteen hands fed on blood and flesh, they seemed to share a mutual understanding, evenly distributing the nutrients and feasting ravenously.
After feeding the Thousand Worm Hands, he went to the Holy Baby Fruit Mother Tree that was planted in the Underworld Mud Flesh.
Since the previously mature Offspring Plant hadn’t been fed to the mother plant promptly, the Mother Tree was instinctively in need. Two grey-black lumps on the withered grey-black body of the Holy Baby Fruit Mother Tree were contracting and expanding. Inside them were two tiny, grey-black fetal embryos.
“Great, it has given birth to two new Holy Baby Fruit Offspring Plant spirit seeds.”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but applaud his previous decision.
As long as the needs of the Holy Baby Fruit Mother Tree weren’t satisfied, it would continue to produce new Offspring Plants to harvest.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xuan cruelly harvested them instead.
The mature Holy Baby Fruit Offspring Plant was kept in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch. As the Mother Tree was not gratified, it birthed two new Offspring Plants.
Lu Xuan carefully cut the two lumps off. For an instant, he appeared to see two grey-black shadows screeching and flashing past.
The fetal embryo-like seeds within the lumps slowly revealed themselves.
Surveying his surroundings, Lu Xuan saw that the area of the Spirit Field was limited. Thus, he decided to plant them directly around the Holy Baby Fruit Mother Tree.
“That’s rather ruthless.”
“The Mother Tree quietly awaits the growth of her Offspring Plants, but once they mature, she can do nothing but watch helplessly as others harvest them.”
“Hmm, the plot seems a bit familiar…”
