The last four remaining Tibetan Yuancao plants were fully mature, and Lu Xuan picked them one by one.
[Harvest a third-grade hidden essence grass and obtain a third-grade foundation-building pill. 】*2【Harvest a third-grade hidden essence grass and obtain a third-grade foundation-building elixir. 】
[Harvest a third-grade Tibetan Yuancao, and obtain the third-grade treasure Nalingcao Bead. 】
The rewards from the four light groups appeared one after another in Lu Xuan’s hands or in his mind.
At this point, the Tibetan Yuan grass that Dan Palace commissioned him to plant has all matured.
None of the twenty Tibetan Essence Grasses were damaged, and the survival rate was 100%. Thirteen of them were of ordinary quality and six were of good quality. What surprised him was that he also harvested a high-quality Tibetan Essence Grass.
Lu Xuan speculated that it might be the result of careful cultivation in the early and late stages of spiritual plant growth.
From the twenty white light clusters, twelve third-grade foundation-building pills, five foundation-building pill recipe experience packs, and three third-grade spiritual grass beads were revealed.
Five foundation-building pill prescription experience packs brought his level of refining foundation-building pills to the proficiency level, which is equivalent to other ordinary alchemists who have been immersed in this for decades.
Of the three spiritual grass beads, one was fed to the grass puppet, and the other two were kept. After the green wood source energy in the Dantian was consumed, the spiritual beads were used to replenish the spiritual energy of the grass and trees.
“It will take a long time for the Five Elements Fruit to mature. These twenty Hidden Essence Grasses can barely be delivered to the Alchemy Palace.”
When imparting the experience of cultivating spiritual plants to the outer disciples, an alchemist who was teaching at the same time became interested in his spiritual plant level and entrusted him to cultivate the hidden essence grass and five elements fruit for the Alchemy Palace. The spiritual seeds were provided by the Alchemy Palace.
Lu Xuan naturally accepted the spiritual seed for free and the light group reward.
He took out a communication talisman, got in touch with the alchemist named Guan Wan in the Alchemy Hall, and made an appointment in two or three times at a time and place.
After confirming, Lu Xuan estimated the time and rode the wind falcon to the Dan Palace.
“Junior Brother Lu, you are here.”
A woman in a yellow shirt who was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment was waiting quietly at the gate. The moment she saw Lu Xuan, she floated over and said softly.
“Long time no see, Senior Sister Guan is still as charming as ever.”
Lu Xuan smiled and bowed in return.
The two entered the Alchemy Palace.
Under the leadership of Guan Wan, Lu Xuan entered a simple and elegant room.
Unknown incense was burning in the room, the aroma was rich, and there was a huge and strange alchemy furnace in the middle.
“Senior Sister Guan, these are the twenty hidden essence grasses that you entrusted me to cultivate before. Please take a look at them.”
After the two chatted for a while, Lu Xuan took out all the hidden Yuancao from the storage bag and floated it in front of Guan Wan.
Guan Wan’s spiritual consciousness scanned it briefly, and he suddenly understood.
“All twenty Hidden Essence Grasses are mature, and the quality seems to be quite good. Junior Brother Lu has worked hard during this time.”
She said softly, picked up a Tibetan Yuancao, and examined it carefully.
“Junior Brother Lu is worthy of being the top spiritual planter in the sect for the high-quality Hidden Yuan Grass.”
Guan Wan praised loudly.
“Huh? There is also a high-quality one!”
Her mouth opened slightly and she exclaimed.
She can go out and teach outer disciples alchemy experience, so she naturally has a very high status in alchemy. At the same time, she also understands the difficulty of obtaining high-quality third-grade spiritual plants.
Many alchemists in the Alchemy Palace have personally cultivated the elixir for refining the Foundation-Building Pill, but the focus is on cultivation and alchemy, so naturally they will not spend too much time cultivating spiritual plants.
When harvesting comes, spiritual plants of inferior quality often appear, and even a slight accident can cause the spiritual plants to wither and die.
The survival rate is difficult to achieve 100%, and the inferior spiritual plants grown will also reduce the rate of elixir formation when refining elixirs.
If the spiritual plant is given to the sect for cultivation, the survival rate of the spiritual plant will be greatly improved, but after all, it is a third-grade spiritual plant, which is difficult to cultivate. After maturity, the quality is mostly ordinary, and occasionally good or inferior quality.
The best quality, at least Guan Wan has never seen it with his own eyes.
The higher the quality of the spiritual plant, the higher the elixir yield rate when refining the elixir, and the better the quality of the elixir.
Lu Xuan’s twenty Tibetan Yuancao plants were not only mature, but none of them were inferior, and several were even good or above.
How dissatisfied this makes Guan Wan! The smile on her face became even bigger, and her eyes looking at Lu Xuan were a little softer.
“There are also rewards for high-quality ones. Twenty sword seals for each plant of good quality, and ten more sword seals for superior quality.”
“Twenty hidden essence grasses, a total of 280 sword seals. Junior Brother Lu, please check the number of sword seals.”
Guan Wan said, and a small pile of sword seals floated in front of Lu Xuan.
“There is no problem with the number.”
Lu Xuan’s spiritual consciousness swept over and confirmed.
Guan Wan looked at Lu Xuan with a smile as he put away the sword seal.
Although the reward for the twenty Hidden Yuan Grasses was more than before, she was eager for it.
After all, more sword seals mean better-quality hidden essence grass, which is an extremely precious thing for alchemists.
Lu Xuan took the sword seal and was equally satisfied.
The value of two hundred and eighty sword seals is equivalent to that of a fourth-grade spiritual seed. His hard work during this period of time to cultivate it is not worth it.
Not to mention, there are many foundation-building pills, pill prescription experience packs, and spirit-navigating grass beads that are available in the light group.
Dan Palace wins, Lu Xuan wins big and special.
“Junior Brother Lu, are you willing to continue this cooperative relationship with Dandian?”
Guan Wan put away the Cang Yuan Cao and asked tentatively.
“Of course I do!”
Lu Xuan didn’t hesitate at all.
“There’s nothing more to me than that I like to deal with flowers, plants, animals, birds, insects, and fish.”
“If senior sister asked me to explore a secret realm and hunt some evil beasts, I might still have trouble, but if I were asked to cultivate spiritual plants, that would be no problem.”
Lu Xuan continued to consolidate his character as an ordinary psychic planter.
“Okay, in view of the good cultivation results of junior brother you this time, I will apply to the elder of Dan Palace for more varieties of spiritual plants to be given to you, junior brother.”
“It’s just that the spiritual planting needs to be prepared and coordinated by Sinong Palace. Soon, the spiritual seeds will be sent to junior brother’s house.”
“Thank you very much, Senior Sister Guan.”
Lu Xuan said with sincere gratitude.
“By the way, senior sister, are the newly provided spiritual seeds still the materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill?”
“That’s right, the demand for Foundation Establishment Pills is high and the refining difficulty is high, which means there is even more demand for corresponding high-grade spiritual plants.”
“If the elixir related to refining is leaked, will the foundation-building elixir be researched by other monks?”
“It’s not that simple.”
A look of pride appeared on Guan Wan’s face.
“There are many monks, families, and small sects in the world who know the materials needed to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, but they are unable to refine it.”
“The first threshold is the inability to quantitatively cultivate the corresponding elixir. After all, there are many third-grade spiritual plants in the refining materials, which cannot be cultivated casually.”
“Going forward, there are still various thresholds, the most important of which is the inability to know the specific recipe.”
“So I don’t know how to handle the elixir, the amount of the elixir, the main and auxiliary elixir, the control of the elixir fire, the timing of taking the elixir, etc.”
“The elixir is the most difficult part for other monks to refine the foundation-building elixir.”
Guan Wan said with a solemn expression.
Lu Xuan nodded in agreement, cursing secretly in his heart.
“Is the elixir recipe difficult? Isn’t it just a matter of planting spiritual plants and opening the light group to get it?”
