BXBX NOVEL Chapter 204 - 202: Good Spirit Plants Have Light Clusters 1
“Fifth Rank Spirit Seed?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan exclaimed in a low voice.
A Fifth Rank Spirit Plant corresponds to the Nascent Soul Stage, a rank of spirit plant he had never come across, even within the Sky Sword Sect.
Up until now, the highest-ranked Spirit Plants he has cultivated have been fourth-grade ones, such as the Mysterious Insect Vine and the Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree.
The Mysterious Insect Vine Spirit Seed was acquired from the Agricultural Lake rtment Hdl after eaming 313186 SUm °f St°neS “ Thousand DraS°n
As for the Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree, it was an unknown eccentric Spirit Seed he won at the sect’s small Qingtan meeting using Clear and Wonderful Spirit Tea. Only after planting it did he come to know its species and rank.
Both of them came at a great cost, so upon hearing the words of the elder from the Wanbao Building in front of him, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but feel surprised. “Although it is a bit eccentric, it is indeed a Fifth Rank Spirit Seed.”
Seeing Lu Xuan’s disbelief, the elder reaffirmed.
“Eccentric Spirit Plant? Is there a particular explanation for that?”
Lu Xuan asked curiously. He had already planted quite a few eccentric Spirit Plants whose ranks were not low, all at least third grade, so he was fairly accepting of such plants.
No matter what type of characteristics they possessed, as long as the plant could produce a White Light Group, it was a good Spirit Plant.
“The Holy Baby Fruit Plant is extremely rare in the Cultivation World, with it only appearing sporadically after many years. The Wanbao Building could only acquire a slight understanding of it after collecting various treasures and related information.”
“This time, a Foundation Establishment Mid-term cultivator came to participate in the Treasure Exchange Meeting organized by the upper echelon of Wanbao Building and has plans to put up the unexpected Holy Baby Fruit Spirit Seed for offer.”
“Legend has it that cultivators who plant the Holy Baby Fruit can hardly survive in the end. Either they die miserably or they disappear. Added to the somewhat strange nature of the Holy Baby Fruit itself, many Spirit Plant Masters avoid it hke the plague, fearing it would bring calamity.”
The rosy-cheeked elder did not hide anything from Lu Xuan, as this matter involved the good reputation that Wanbao Building had accumulated over hundreds of years. They could not cover up the important issues, lest they misguide their clients.
More importantly, LuXuan, being a young cultivator with Foundation Establishment Cultivation as well as a disciple of the Sky Sword Sect, would not meet a good end if he suffered significant losses due to misinformation.
“I see.”
Lu Xuan mused, nodding lightly.
He didn’t quite believe it, though, as in his experience, even eccentric Spirit Plants were of limited danger to cultivators.
Long-term exposure to the fourth-grade Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree could potentially cause mental confusion, but one could easily avoid this by being slightly cautious.
Furthermore, he could monitor the real-time status of the Spirit Plants he himself planted. If he detected anything harmful developing, he could nip it in the bud.
“I’m interested in the Treasure Exchange Meeting organized for Foundation Establishment cultivators by your esteemed building. I hope you can introduce me.”
Lu Xuan said in a low voice.
“The organizer is a member of the upper echelon of Wanbao Building, with a cultivation base at the Foundation Establishment Mid-term and the meeting will be held in his cave residence.”
“How far is the cave residence from Sword Gate Town?”
Hearing that the Treasure Exchange Meeting was not held in Sword Gate Town Lu Xuan felt a twinge of caution.
“It’s not too far from Sword Gate Town, about six to seven hundred 11.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan nodded.
This distance was within his acceptable range as it was within the Sky Sword Sect’s sphere of influence, so several of his sect members would probably be attending as well.
If any accidents were to occur, with the identity plaque of the Inner Sect Disciple, he could promptly seek help from sect members and even the sect itself.
After breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, his strength had greatly increased, and numerous third-grade treasures and Cultivation Techniques made him one of the forerunners among cultivators of the same level, especially the defensive and escape-type treasures and Formula Methods, which were far ahead of others
Lastly, Wanbao Building enjoyed a reputation throughout the Cultivation World, so the safety of such a convention must be well guaranteed if they were the ones organizing it.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan hesitated no more.
“Please inform me about the exact time, location, and method of participation
for the Payment Exchange Conference.”
Upon hearing Lu Xuan’s words, the old man’s face broke into a eager smile.
He took out a gilded invitation letter from his storage bag and handed it to Lu Xuan.
“This is an invitation to the Payment Exchange Conference. The corresponding nines are drawn on it. When the conference is about to begin, the runes will light up in a certain range, guiding Cultivators to the conference site.”
“At that time, there will be Cultivators to confirm and guide Friend Lu into the conference.”
“Friend Lu can also tell me in advance what they want to offer and what they want to exchange, to be prepared for a rainy day.”
The old man explained in detail to Lu Xuan. Introducing a young Foundation Establishment Cultivator with a remarkable background and talent to the conference, he could consider it as a significant accomplishment.
“I want to offer the third-grade spiritual plant Fantasy Smoke Fruit and Flood Dragon Vine, both of which are of quite good quality, as well as a third-grade Spirit Cleansing Talisman.”
“As for what I want in exchange, preferably a high-rank Spirit Seed or a demon beast’s egg or youngling.”
Lu Xuan took out the third-grade Fantasy Smoke Fruit and Flood Dragon Vine from his storage bag.
The faint white Spirit Fruit emitted rising smoke and created illusions, making one feel dizzy and enchanted at a single glance.
A thick and long blood-red vine looked like a lurking snake in the dark, with blood-red liquid flowing inside, making it even more enchanting.
“Superior quality Fantasy Smoke Fruit, good quality Flood Dragon Vine this quality is quite rare among Spirit Plants of the same rank, truly worthy of a disciple of a great sect, who could cultivate such Spirit Plants.”
The elderly man, with a reddish complexion, looked over the Fantasy Smoke
Fruit and Flood Dragon Vine with his eyes, and exclaimed in surprise.
“Third-grade Charm, Spirit Cleansing Talisman, able to detect the evil invasion to a certain extent. Even a Trick Level Evil Invasion, the Spirit Cleansing Talisman can also play a certain degree of purification effect.”
“Even though it doesn’t have much offensive or defensive role, but when facing
the unpredictable evil invasions, it is a big advantage.”
After the elderly man identified it, spiritual energy surged in his body, and a black and white paper bird flew out, stretching out in the low air to become a sheet of white paper filled with a significant amount of ink.
The black liquid automatically formed a black pen, recorded the information left by Lu Xuan, then vanished from the sight of both of them with a swish.
“Friend, I still have some spirit plants in my hand, there are second-grade Copper Bone Bamboo, Flowing Light Wood, and also a large number of Spirit Stones ” raSS‘P1MSe 6731,1316 thdr Va’Ue f°r me’ eXChange them f°r Spirit
Lu Xuan said to the elderly man.
The second-grade Copper Bone Bamboo is excellent material for refining Flying Swords, but Lu Xuan currently had Second Rank Red Flame Sword tempered with a scabbard and a Sword of Wind and Thunder Pellet in his Dantian. Plus, a total of twelve Sword Grass from the previous two batches so he wasn’t very eager to create Flying Swords.
The second-grade Flowing Light Wood, which was also second-grade, could be used to make Charm papers. He only had a shallow understanding of making charms, so he planned to exchange it for Spirit Stones for daily needs.
As for the Spirit Firefly Grass, despite its lack of grade, it was abundant, and even a mosquito’s legs are meat. Accumulated, they could be exchanged for a considerable number of Spirit Stones.
“Okay, friend Lu, please follow me.”
The old man immediately nodded his consent.
The quality of Copper Bone Bamboo and Flowing Light Wood was at least good, so their price had to be raised quite a bit. With a large number of Spirit Firefly ’ Grass, the total brought Lu Xuan more than 1500 Spirit Stones, which increased his wealth enormously.
Lu Xuan arrived at Qingshi Square and quickly bought some types of Demon Beast Meat that three small loved. He also purchased three second-hand flying swords to be well prepared for the upcoming Exchange Conference.
