Chapter 535: Chapter 533 Preparation_1
As an Inner Sect Disciple, Lu Xuan would certainly agree without hesitation if the sect assigned tasks to him.
This is the responsibility of being an Inner Sect Disciple, it’s not good to evade and forced refusal might even lead to undesirable consequences.
Furthermore, ever since he entered the sect, he has been under the protection of the sect for more than 20 years. The vast majority of spiritual plants he planted were supplied by the sect. His current cultivation level and wealth are closely related to the cultivation provided by the sect. If he gets an opportunity to repay the sect, he would gladly accept it.
Most importantly, he has full confidence in his current strength.
His cultivation is at the Foundation Establishment late-stage realm, and his physical body and spiritual sense strengths greatly surpass cultivators at the same stage. He also possesses various rare and exceptional treasures.
Lu Xuan was arranging his current assets in his mind.
Among fifth-rank treasures, the Divine Essence Scroll, “Divine Proliferation Scripture”, Blood Scourge Flower, Clear Sword Heart, and the sixth-grade “Blood God Scripture” can’t be utilized against enemies.
Among the remaining fifth-rank treasures, the Void Nightmare Eye is an excellent treasure for investigation and the illusion techniques it contains can provide beneficial effects as well.
The fifth-rank “Pure Yang Real Fire Talisman” and Taiyi Thunder Amulet are extremely strong, even a Golden Core Real Person may not escape unscathed from their attacks.
The fifth-rank Soul Piercing Needle, specifically aimed at the divine soul, is unpredictable and the fifth-rank Mirage Sound Pearl, sonic attack tool, is an excellent weapon for sneak attacks.
The fifth-rank Clear Dragonfly Feather Robe can resist divine soul attacks, can isolate its aura, cover up the secrets of heaven, and blind divination divine skills.
In addition, numerous fourth-grade magical artifacts such as the Wind-Thunder Sword, Nebula Sword Array, Thunder Sound Sword, White Bone Demon Puppet, Qingwei Jade Lock, etc, and there are more than sixty fourth-grade Sword Symbols.
If they’re used all together, even a Golden Core Real Person would need to worry whether they could withstand such a number of Sword Symbols.
For fleeing, the Clear Dragonfly Feather Robe and Void Nightmare Eye provide excellent support. Besides, Lu Xuan has cultivated the Five Elements Escape Technique, Floating Light Body Method, possesses the fourth-grade Magical Artifact, Qing Helved Shoes, and the recently perfected “Earth Yuan Secret Book”.
The number of third-rank treasures is countless, and wealth is no lower than that of an ordinary Early Core Formation stage Real Person.
“After farming for so many years and opening up so many light clusters, I finally have enough confidence to deal with such a situation.”
Lu Xuan comforted himself in his heart.
Just as he was about to inspect the many spirit plants in his spirit field to see if he could harvest a few more light clusters, a voice came from outside his cave dwelling.
“Junior Brother Lu, are you there?”
Lu Xuan hurriedly went out to welcome the guest.
A tall and thin middle-aged cultivator, at the Foundation Establishment late-term cultivation, has a serious expression and is not fond of talking.
“Greetings to this Senior Brother, may I know why you are looking for me?”
Lu Xuan opened the Flowing Light Formation and welcomed the tall, thin middle-aged man into his cave dwelling.
“I’m from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, surname Li.”
The middle-aged cultivator said indifferently. Seeing Lu Xuan about to serve spiritual fruit and tea, he immediately said:
“Junior Brother Lu need not be so courteous, I came here just to tell you a few words.”
“The cultivation world is in constant unrest recently, the sect is short-handed, and will forcefully assign various tasks to the disciples. Please don’t refuse.”
“Of course not, being able to contribute to the sect is my duty.”
Lu Xuan quickly stated his position.
“It’s good to see such consciousness in a disciple.”
The tall and thin middle-aged man nodded, admiration shown in his eyes.
“In as little as ten days or as much as a month, the sect will assign you a task, Junior Brother Lu. You can prepare during this time.”
“The task assigned to you should be relatively risk-free. When tasks were allocated earlier, more than one Golden Pellet Elder Uncle and Senior Brother of Authentic Teachings made it clear to not send you, a novice in the art of the fight law, to the frontlines.”
The middle-aged man looked at the refined and handsome young man before him and slowly spoke.
He didn’t expect that a Spirit Plant Master could have such a high status within the Sect. Several Golden Core Real People and True Disciples came one after another to specifically instruct him to take care of Lu Xuan when assigning tasks.
“I… thank all the elder uncles, brother seniors, and Brother Li for your care and concern.”
Lu Xuan quickly responded, his heart filled with gratitude.
The images of Elder Uncle Gu Jiankong, True Man Cang Wu, Ge Pu, Fire Scale Child, and Zhong Jing Shan flashed through his mind.
“There will be arrangements at that time, prepare thoroughly, Junior Brother.”
The slender middle-aged Cultivator reminded Lu Xuan with these words, then turned into a streak of red light and disappeared amongst the mountains.
Lu Xuan watched him leave until his figure completely disappeared, then he went back to his cave residence.
“What a troublesome time it is. How is a helpless and weak Spirit Plant Master like me going to survive in such a chaotic world?”
He couldn’t help sighing.
“I have ten days to a month for preparation. I must mature some nearly mature Spirit Plants to give me more confidence.”
With the last batch of Primordial Essence Herb maturing, plus the leftover from before, he had accumulated many Nascent Soul Grass Orbs. Now that a crucial time has come, there’s no need to hold onto them.
Using them to replenish the Qingmu Origin Energy, harvesting more light clusters, would also add a bit more to his confidence.
Lu Xuan scanned the Spirit Field with his Spiritual Sense, his heart pondering.
“The latest batch of Water Glow Grass definitely needs to be matured. As it’s a second-grade Spiritual Plant, it uses limited Qingmu Origin Energy and can effectively boost my Cultivation Level, hence highly cost-effective.”
“Additionally, I don’t know how long it will take for us to return this time, so I must condense some Water Glow Grass spirit seeds as a contingency.”
No matter the environment, Lu Xuan always held onto the heart of a farmer.
“The Jade Dew Fruit has entered its maturation period and needs to be ripened. The Dust Removal Pills it produces have an excellent effect on dispelling evil and strange aura. We may encounter a lot of demonic envoys outside the sect. These will be extremely useful.”
“Besides, the fourth-grade Sword Peacock is also reaching maturity. During this time, being able to freely use the Peacock Sword Array, along with Qingmu Origin Energy, will hasten its ripening.”
Lu Xuan thought that the light cluster rewards brought by Sword Grass were all high-grade. If he had a chance to harvest a four-grade Sword grass light cluster, he would naturally try and seize it.
“Inside the Underworld Court, the fourth-grade Filthy Bug Grass has entered maturity and must be ripened before leaving.”
“The fifth-grade Strange Longevity Peach can also be attempted. I don’t know if the Qingmu Origin Energy would be enough to completely mature all. However, ripening one should not be a problem.”
“In addition, when leaving the sect, I must keep the Spirit of Flesh by my side to ensure its nourishment. Otherwise, if it goes hungry for too long, being an Demon envoy, it might become uncontrollable.”
“If there are still leftover Nascent Soul Grass Orbs, I can try and mature the fifth-grade Dragon Bone Grass in the Remnant Secret Realm. The other fifth-grade and sixth-grade Spiritual Plants definitely won’t be enough.”
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
“Some low-ranked Spiritual Plants that are still in their growth stage can be put into the Gluttonous Insect Pouch. Once it’s a bit more stable outside, I will see if there’s an opportunity to plant them.”
He thought of everything thoroughly.
“While the other disciples exhaust their resources to buy healing pills, Returning Spirit Pills, and powerful talisman tools, my preparation is to mature Spirit Plants and harvest light clusters.”
Upon this thought, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
