Chapter 136 - 134: Ice Luo Fruit, Weird Tree Full of Eyes_i
Whether it’s Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaves or Dark Marrow Mushroom, although their rank is not high, they are rare and unusual spirit plants, and they have a wide range of uses, making them extremely popular among cultivators.
Junior brother, I have a second-rank flying sword imbued with lightning spiritual energy, how about exchanging it for two of your Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaves?”
“Junior brother, I have a second-rank light body cultivation technique, and I would like to exchange it for a few of your spiritual tea leaves, what do you think?”
“I have a third-grade Spirit Cleansing Talisman. Would you like to consider it?”
Soon, several cultivators came forth to inquire Lu Xuan.
A trace of apology emerged on Lu Xuan’s face.
My respected senior brothers and sisters, I am very sorry, I will first consider exchanging them for spiritual seeds or spirit seed condensing methods, as for other items, let’s not discuss them for the moment.”
Upon hearing Lu Xuan’s words, many cultivators fell quiet.
Among the crowd present, only a few have experience in cultivating spiritual plants, and even fewer happen to possess the spirit seeds that Lu Xuan needs. After waiting a while, a gentle and elegant lady cultivator stepped forward and said.
“Junior Brother, I have four pieces of Second-Grade Ice Luo Fruit Spirit Seeds, recently bought and ready for planting, can they be exchanged for the Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaves in your hands?”
“Ice Luo Fruit Spirit Seeds?”
Having recently studied extensively about various spirit plants, Lu Xuan had some impression of it. A second-level spirit plant, once mature, produces spirit fruits with natural freezing effects and is extremely delicious.
“I can exchange.”
He nodded at the gentle and elegant lady cultivator.
“However, as you are aware, Sister, even though the Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaves and the Ice Luo Fruit Spirit Seeds are both second-grade, one is a mature spiritual medicine, and the other still requires extended cultivation, their values cannot be equated.”
“How about exchanging four Ice Luo Fruit Spirit Seeds for two Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaves?”
“Not impossible, although I would require a superior quality Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaf.”
The gentle lady cultivator spoke slowly, as a superior quality Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea naturally has far better effects than one of good quality.
“No problem.”
Exchanging two Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaves for four spiritual seeds, Lu Xuan knew he had made quite a profit and agreed without hesitation.
He handed the lady cultivator two tea leaves of different quality, and at the same time, the lady cultivator took out four finger-sized spirit seeds from her storage bag.
Lu Xuan accepted the Ice Luo Fruit Spirit Seeds, which felt like small blocks of ice in his hand, and he could feel a slight chill from them.
Thank you, Sister.” Lu Xuan laughed and said to the gentle lady.
“It should be me thanking you, Junior Brother. Spirit seeds are things that can be bought or exchanged when needed, but superior quality Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea is not something that can be easily purchased.”
The gentle lady smiled and spoke warmly.
Having obtained the four Ice Luo Fruit spirit seeds, Lu Xuan waited a bit longer, but seeing no other cultivators coming forward to exchange for spirit seeds or spirit seed condensing methods, he stepped down from the stage. Very soon, all the cultivators had taken the stage to exchange items and the moment moved into the free exchange phase.
During the stage exchanges, it often occurred that one party was interested while the other had little interest, in these situations, a third or even fourth cultivator would be drawn in to join them, mutually exchanging to meet each other’s needs.
As soon as it ended, several cultivators voluntarily gathered around Lu Xuan. Although they did not have the appropriate spirit seeds, they were still not giving up on the Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea and Dark Marrow Mushroom in Lu Xuan’s hand. They wanted to try if they could exchange them for other goods.
At the very least, they could also get familiar with Lu Xuan, seeing that he could cultivate rare second-grade spiritual plants of superior quality, fully demonstrating that Lu Xuan had exceptional talent in the path of spiritual plants.
“Junior Brother Lu, I have a second-grade Pill Furnace in my hands, can it be exchanged with the Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea Leaves?”
A young cultivator at the ninth level of qi training asked.
“Second Grade Dan Furnace?”
A certain interest arose in Lu Xuan’s heart.
Until now, the rewards produced by the light clusters consisted of magic artifacts, charms, elixirs, cultivation techniques, and elixir recipes, but there hadn’t been any pill furnaces.
After absorbing several Yuan Cultivating Pill Experience Packages, he had a deep and thorough understanding of creating Yuan Cultivating Pills, and therefore, he wanted to put his alchemy skills into practice.
“How would senior brother like to exchange?”
Lu Xuan asked curiously.
Hearing Lu Xuan question, the young cultivator knew that he was interested and hesitated for a moment before speaking.
“How about exchanging it for two High-Quality Clear and Wonderful Spirit Tea leaves?”
“Let’s do as senior brother said.”
Lu Xuan nodded in agreement. With two Clear and Wonderful Spirit Tea leaves, he managed to acquire a Second Grade Dan Furnace. He had profited quite a bit from this deal.
He took a round and squat furnace with two handles and three legs from the young cultivator and placed it into his storage bag.
“Junior brother, please hold on.”
When he was about to leave, a soft voice played on his ear. The junior of the Core Formation Elder introduced by Baili Jianqing initially, was watching him.
“Junior brother, I have a quite peculiar spiritual tree in my possession. It’s still ahve and can be cultivated normally, and its rank shouldn’t be lower than the third-grade.”
“However, it looks somewhat odd, I wonder if junior brother would be interested?”
A spiritual tree that looks odd? May I have a look first?” Lu Xuan asked curiously.
“Junior Brother, come with me.”
The gentle young cultivator led Lu Xuan to a corner of the courtyard and pulled out a strange little tree from his storage bag.
The small tree was about half a foot tall, with branches as dry as an old face.
Most unusually, there were dozens of pupils closely crowded on the tree trunk some of them tightly closed or half-open, looking extremely eerie.
“That’s roughly what it looks like.”
Seeing that Lu Xuan had gotten a good look at the weird spiritual plant, the soft-spoken youth quickly put it back into his storage bag.
“This kind of spirit plant… In all my years of cultivating spiritual plants, this is the first I’ve seen.”
Lu Xuan spoke half genuinely and half falsely. As a kind of eerie spiritual plant, he had been quietly cultivating Ghost-Faced Stone Mushrooms and Thorn Bones in Sword Gate Town.
However, he wasn’t wrong about one thing. The little tree covered in pupils in front of him was far more eerie than the Ghost-Faced Stone Mushroom and Thorn Bone.
“Although this little tree looks strange, I can assure you it’s not a demonic envoy. You can rest assured on this, junior brother.”
The gentle young cultivator promised Lu Xuan.
“Even if it is a spiritual plant, I still don’t know how to cultivate it. If it isn’t properly cultivated, it might all be in vain.”
Moreover, those pupils always give me a sense of eeriness. If I’m not careful, it could potentially bring disaster to the Spirit Plant Master.”
Lu Xuan’s face showed a hesitant expression.
How about this, junior brother. I’ll exchange this little tree for the Dark Marrow Mushroom in your possession, along with three Clear and Wonderful Spirit Tea Leaves. How does that sound?”
“If it were a normal third-grade spiritual plant, it would be much more expensive.”
Lu Xuan slightly nodded his head. What the gentle young cultivator said was true. Even if the multi-eyed strange tree was just an ordinary third-grade spiritual plant, it would be impossible to acquire it with so little. It was precisely because it was an unknown and eccentric spiritual plant that he had this great opportunity.
Alright, then I’ll form a good relationship with senior brother.”
Pretending to hesitate for a moment, Lu Xuan finally agreed..
