Chapter 275 It doesn’t count…what?
The ten sword grass spiritual seeds that Shen Ye left for him were cultivated with two of each four-season sword energy, for a total of eight. The remaining two were the red ones made from the combination of the Red Flame Sword and the Yangxuan Sword Sheath. It was cultivated with Flame Sword Qi, and another successfully improved third-grade Wind and Thunder Sword Grass was cultivated with Xunlei Sword Light.
The Wind and Thunder Sword Grass was still a long time away from maturing, but it didn’t take long for the Red Flame Sword Grass to fully mature. Lu Xuan harvested a red flame sword intention from the white light mass.
He laid out the nine sword grasses in order and decided to take them to the sword hall to give Shen Ye an explanation.
An hour later, Lu Xuan arrived at the location of the sword hall.
He stood in front of a vast sword formation that was unknown for how many miles, and waited quietly.
The spiritual consciousness cannot perceive the scope of the sword formation, and there are countless fish-like sword energy swimming freely on the surface of the formation.
He seems calm and ordinary, but once he tries to rush into the sword formation, countless sword energy will instantly cover him.
He had already used the communication talisman to get in touch with Shen Ye, and not long after, a young man with an ordinary appearance walked out of the sword formation. The young man had advanced foundation building skills. His body was upright, like a sharp sword, and he was confident.
“You are Junior Brother Lu, right?”
The young man looked at Lu Xuan with his eyes, and there seemed to be an invisible sword energy focusing on Lu Xuan.
“That’s right, it’s me. How do you call me senior brother?”
“Just call me Senior Brother Li. Senior Brother Shen Ye asked me to come out to pick you up. Please follow me and don’t cross. Otherwise, the sword formation may accidentally injure you, Junior Brother.”
Lu Xuan nodded and followed the young man into the sword formation.
A huge sword energy peak appeared in front of him, with all kinds of sword energy dancing wildly around the mountain.
The two came to a simple courtyard.
A gentle monk stood quietly in front of the courtyard gate, carrying a dark black sword box on his back. His whole body was like a long sword with restrained sword intent.
It was Shen Ye, the master of the Sinong Hall and the senior executive of the sword hall, who had met Lu Xuan several times and admired Lu Xuan quite a lot.
“Senior Brother Shen.”
Lu Xuan quickly saluted.
“Junior Brother Lu, long time no see.”
Shen Ye smiled gently, and the young monk quietly retreated.
“Junior brother Lu, come here this time, but the sword grass I gave you earlier has been successfully cultivated?”
After the two chatted for a few words and reminisced about old friendships, Shen Ye asked.
“Fortunately, the sword grass spiritual seed that Senior Brother Shen gave me has been cultivated and matured.”
“Oh? Really? Junior brother, please take it out and let me see it.”
After receiving Lu Xuan’s affirmative reply, a trace of curiosity appeared on Shen Ye’s face.
Lu Xuan brushed it with one hand, and nine sword-shaped sword grasses flew out of the storage bag and were placed in front of the two of them one by one.
“The good-quality sword grass, if you guessed it correctly, should be nourished and cultivated by the summer sword energy in the “Four Seasons Sword Art”.”
Shen Ye picked up the first sword grass, flicked it with his fingers, and an invisible sword energy shot onto the sword grass, which immediately caused the sword grass to react violently, and many violent and manic sword energy shot out.
“good.”
Shen Ye nodded and said in approval.
“All nine sword grasses are of good quality. Junior Brother Lu is beyond my expectation.”
After carefully examining the nine sword grasses, he turned to Lu Xuan and said.
“I spend a lot of time and energy on spiritual plants on weekdays, and with good luck, I was lucky enough to get good quality sword grass.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
“However, Junior Brother Lu, I remember that there were ten sword grass spiritual seeds given to you at that time. Now there are nine sword grass plants, but one of them failed to be cultivated?”
Shen Ye checked the number of sword grass again and asked curiously.
“Uh, another sword grass…”
Lu Xuan paused for a moment, thinking about how to answer.
“It doesn’t matter if you fail. After all, even the experienced sword cultivators in the sword hall cannot guarantee your success rate, junior brother.”
“No, Senior Brother Shen, that sword grass was accidentally improved and became a third-grade spiritual plant.” Lu Xuan whispered.
“A mere sword grass was lost.” Shen Ye continued subconsciously.
“It doesn’t count…”
“What?!”
His tone suddenly rose, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
“Junior Brother Lu, you improved a sword grass into a third-grade spiritual plant?! Are you serious about this?”
He flashed in front of Lu Xuan and asked again.
“Yes, judging from my many years of experience in cultivating spiritual plants, it is indeed a new third-grade sword grass.”
Lu Xuan’s tone was determined.
“Haisan.”
Before Shen Ye finished speaking, a rainbow light shot out from the deep black sword box behind him, wrapping the two of them and disappearing from the courtyard in an instant.
Lu Xuan returned to the foot of the mountain peak named after him in a trance.
“Please also ask Junior Brother Lu to activate the mountain guarding formation and take me to see the third-grade sword grass.”
Shen Ye used the last trace of reason in his heart to suppress the idea of breaking into Lu Xuan’s cave directly, and said gently.
In front of the wind and thunder sword grass.
Shen Ye closed his eyes and carefully explored every detail of the sword grass with his spiritual consciousness.
A small stream of sword energy surged out from his fingertips and shot at the Wind and Thunder Sword and Grass Sword.
Where the sword grass was hit, hundreds of dark black sword energy flew out, like a tiny hurricane that was shrunk countless times. The hurricane rolled past, and lightning and thunder could be vaguely seen.
“Contains the power of wind and thunder…”
“Although I don’t know how Junior Brother Lu cultivated it, it is indeed a third-grade sword grass.”
Shen Ye confirmed with a solemn expression, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, growing wider and wider.
“Junior Brother Lu, you are truly a genius!”
“I remember that when you were still a Qi Practitioner, you accidentally obtained a sword and grass spirit seed that was left outside. Without any experience, you successfully cultivated it with the help of Gengjin Sword Art at the master level.”
“After I learned this, I estimated that you are not only a talented swordsman, but also a person who is born to cultivate sword grass.”
“The ten sword grass spiritual seeds that I left behind before, and the nine sword grasses that are in good condition that you brought here are already beyond my expectations.”
“I didn’t expect you to give me such a big surprise!”
“This is the first time to cultivate sword grass on a large scale, and we can improve it to obtain a third-grade rare sword grass!”
“This can be said to be shocking.”
Shen Ye still couldn’t calm down for a long time because of his xinxing that was in the later stage of foundation building.
It wasn’t that he was out of touch by nature, but that what Lu Xuan had done was completely beyond his imagination.
Ten sword grass spiritual seeds were used to cultivate nine mature sword grass plants of good quality. That was already a very good result. Many sword cultivators in the sword hall who specialized in cultivating sword grass could not achieve this. .
But Lu Xuan, not only could do all this easily, he could also improve and cultivate a third-grade sword grass! You must know that Tianjian Sect, as its name suggests, is famous in the entire cultivation world for its swords, among which sword grass is the core foundation of the entire sword hall.
Many third-, fourth- and even fifth-grade swords are made from cultivating and refining sword grass.
During the long years of the sword hall, if you want to obtain new varieties of high-grade sword grass, you need to go through generations of experiments and experience countless failures before you can successfully improve and produce a new sword grass.
And Lu Xuan, just one person, completed this process in a short time!
How could this not shock him?
