Chapter 337: Bountiful Harvest
The surface of the spiritual liquid shimmered with countless spiritual lights, resembling a sky full of stars. Shi Zhongjie uncorked the bottle, and instantly, a rich and pure spiritual aura emanated, causing a stirring of spiritual energy within.
"This Gathering Spirit Essence is a third-grade spiritual liquid, containing extremely rich and pure spiritual energy. Consuming a drop of it can quickly replenish and restore a cultivator's spiritual power."
Shi Zhong introduced to Lu Xuan.
"Thank you, my friends, for obtaining this rare spiritual liquid for me."
Lu Xuan smiled faintly.
"According to our prior agreement, these two Sword-Nurturing Gourds will serve as compensation for this bottle of Gathering Spirit Essence."
With a flick of his hand, two cyan mottled gourds flew out from his storage bag, emitting a clear sword resonance from within, as if nurturing a powerful sword qi.
"Lu Daoist friend is generous. Then we graciously accept these Sword-Nurturing Gourds."
Shi Zhong and the others showed a hint of joy on their faces, without any refusal, they accepted the Sword-Nurturing Gourds.
Inside the gourds harbored a fierce sword qi comparable to a third-grade magical weapon. It was satisfying for both of them to exchange them for a bottle of Gathering Spirit Essence.
Not to mention Lu Xuan, for whom the Gathering Spirit Essence could be used to cultivate the fifth-grade Dragon Bone Grass in the sect, its value far exceeded its own, not to mention the considerable time saved from avoiding the risks of searching for it.
Shi Zhong and the others did not stay long, exchanged a few words, and bid farewell to Lu Xuan.
"Senior Uncle Lu, what are your plans next?"
Song Yu quickly approached and asked.
"I plan to return to the Empty Abyss Island. If you want to explore the secret realm, you can continue to stay here. With caution, you can still find some good things."
A hint of hesitation flashed across Song Yu's face, but he ultimately decided to stay outside the secret realm.
"Senior Uncle, since we've come all this way, we still want to take a look inside."
"Alright, then be careful."
Lu Xuan instructed briefly. He had already informed Song Yu and the others about the secret realm, so there was nothing extra to explain. He then controlled the Purple Thunder Sword and flew towards the Empty Abyss Island.
"Finally back."
Lu Xuan sighed softly as he returned to his courtyard.
This time entering the secret realm, he made many preparations. With his cultivation breaking through to the mid Foundation Establishment stage, and obtaining the Void Nightmare Eye and the *Pure Yang True Fire Scroll*, he was able to return unscathed from the secret realm.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, a green light came rushing over, and he felt the familiar touch of the Wind Falcon's round and soft belly on top of his head.
The plump bird flapped its large light green wings, stepped on Lu Xuan's shoulders, chirping incessantly, seeming extremely dissatisfied with Lu Xuan for not taking it out.
On the side, the Cloud-Stepping Lynx, which came out of the Gluttonous Insect Pouch, trod lightly between the mountains and rocks, moving as if walking on level ground, with an extremely elegant demeanor.
"Is your turtle still obedient?"
Lu Xuan pinched the soft belly of the plump bird and walked to the edge of the small pool.
Not seeing each other for a while, the heavy black stones on the Rock Shell Turtle's body became even thicker, and Lu Xuan didn't know how many times it had rolled in the mud and water.
Sensing Lu Xuan's aura, the Azure-Horned Dragon Carp swam up from the bottom of the pool, floating near the Rock Shell Turtle.
With a slender figure and graceful movements, its two green dragon whiskers dragged and floated in the water, forming a sharp contrast with the adjacent Rock Shell Turtle covered in earthy aura.
Lu Xuan fed them some food and hurried back into the house.
This time in the secret realm, he consumed quite a few treasures.
He used up all the Flameburst Beads obtained from the Crimson Flame Fruit, one Grand Sun Sword Talisman, one Falling Star Sword Talisman, and two Fourth-Grade Sword Talismans remained.
In addition, the Third-Grade Evil Infant puppet and the attack of the remaining soul of the Golden Crow from the fifth-grade *Pure Yang True Fire Scroll* were also consumed.
"However, the losses are acceptable."
"The Flame Fruits in the sect are still growing, and the accumulation of Flameburst Beads will be quick. Three Sword-Nurturing Gourds have also been planted, so there is no need to worry about a lack of Sword Talismans."
"As for the *Pure Yang True Fire Scroll*, I can still visualize the Golden Crow image inside, and if there is a suitable opportunity, I can recharge and continue to use it."
"More importantly, the harvest outweighs the losses."
He took out one treasure after another from the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.
One spiritual seed of the fifth-grade Dragon Bone Grass, six picked spiritual fruits of the fifth-grade Dragon Bone Grass.
"A fifth-grade spiritual seed. The cultivation method after the mutation is somewhat evil, and
it happens to be suitable for planting in the Yin-Yang Courtyard."
Lu Xuan looked at the dark red pits embedded in the coagulated flesh and blood and thought to himself.
Next was the Medicine Bug tightly locked in by the White Bone Demon Puppet.
As it was nearly invisible, it could easily disappear from sight with a slight carelessness, so Lu Xuan had kept it sealed in the White Bone Puppet all along.
He set up a simple spiritual power prohibition, and with a thought, a slight crack appeared in the bone sphere.
A faint medicinal fragrance wafted out from the crack.
Lu Xuan took out a Spirit Nourishing Pill from his storage bag. Sensing it with his spiritual sense, the transparent bug sneaked over stealthily and enveloped the Spirit Nourishing Pill, greedily absorbing the poison inside.
He took this opportunity to form a contract with the Medicine Bug.
"In the future, there will be a large supply of pills." Lu Xuan transmitted a thought to the semi-transparent Medicine Bug.
Feeding on the poison in the pills and the pills themselves would not affect its medicinal properties, but would instead further enhance the quality of the pills.
Then, there were three treasures obtained from the Jade Pool.
The Black Mud of Resentful Souls, obtained in a struggle with a mid Foundation Establishment burly cultivator.
With an indistinct form, a slight pinch would cause resentful souls to squeeze out from the black mud.
A dark yellow incense, seized from a Blood Robed cultivator. The incense burned automatically, and smoke curled up, forming a vague lotus platform in the sky, with a Buddha image sitting on it, smiling and holding a flower.
A verdant small sword, obtained after defeating a short cultivator controlling numerous corpse puppets, emitted a strong and pure vitality, warding off evil spirits.
Of the four treasures in the Jade Pool, three fell into Lu Xuan's hands, and only the exquisite seal was taken away by the hunchback cultivator who fled.
"At least they are all fourth-grade magical weapons, treasures, and even possibly fifth-grade. It's a pity that I don't understand their origins. I can only try to find out their specific functions."
Lu Xuan sensed the powerful spiritual fluctuations inside the three treasures and speculated.
After that, he obtained several storage bags from several cultivators.
The focus was on the storage bags left by the two late Foundation Establishment evil cultivators.
Lu Xuan forcibly opened them with spiritual energy and took out everything inside.
Spirit stones cascaded down with a clatter, and Lu Xuan roughly glanced at them, estimating there were five to six thousand.
Next were various pills and talismans, some of which Lu Xuan recognized, while others he had never seen before. They were filled with demonic energy and were obviously not orthodox pills.
The quality of the talismans was average, with the highest being third-grade. Lu Xuan was a bit picky about various rare talismans, and he was starting to look down on them.
In addition, there was a fourth-grade magical weapon, a prayer flag refined with many resentful souls, and three third-grade magical weapons, each with a trace of sinister aura.
A bottle of dark red blood, rich in spiritual power and extraordinary quality, many rare demonic beast bones, polished to a gleam.
There was also an unexpected discovery—a sinister spiritual seed.
