I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 383 - 381: Arrow Vine Seedling_l
Chapter 383: Chapter 381: Arrow Vine Seedling_l
The Lingxiao Sect was famous for alchemy, so naturally, there were many Spirit Plant Masters who were skilled in cultivating spiritual plants within the sect. After some research, they had a general understanding of a certain or several types of mutant spiritual plants.
But Lu Xuan was different. He had a comprehensive understanding of all the mutant spiritual plants that appeared in the Blessed Land – their origins, peculiarities, uses, etc., he knew them all.
This enabled him to accurately assess the approximate value of a mutant spiritual plant.
For Fang Qing of the Lingxiao Sect to profit from him was an absolute impossibility.
Of course, if he could take advantage of the Lingxiao Sect, that would be another story.
“Friend Fang, I’ve got more than ten of the same spirit plant on hand. I’m just not sure if you know of its use,” Lu Xuan said with a shrewd smile.
“A few fellow sect members and I are still in the stage of exploration, and we do not yet know the usage of this type of mutant spiritual plant.”
“The main reason for the exchange with you is that we don’t have spare spirit plants for research and experiments. We don’t know when our senior brothers and sisters at the front line will return to camp, so we thought to see if we could exchange for a few to get by.”
The soft-spoken young man tried to evade the question with a fib, replying to Lu Xuan.
“I see.”
Lu Xuan nodded.
“Then later, I’ll bring this type of mutant spiritual plant to you. Prepare the mutant spiritual plants that can be used for exchange. If they’re satisfactory, I’ll be glad to trade with you.”
“The exchange rules will be simple, one for one, how does that sound?”
“That works.”
The two reached a preliminary agreement.
After discussing with Feng Yu, under the dual influence of the token of the Golden Core Real People and his own ability, they had no objections to how Lu Xuan would deal with the mutant spiritual plants.
A moment later, Lu Xuan entered the Lingxiao Sect’s camp with more than ten stalks of Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood.
“Friend Lu, please come in quickly!”
“Let me introduce my fellow sect members. This is Senior Brother Fan. This one is…”
As soon as he walked in the door, Fang Qing warmly welcomed him.
“I wonder how the spirit plants you prepared for the exchange are coming along?”
After some small talk, Lu Xuan asked.
“Friend Lu, please follow me.”
Fang Qing had been waiting for this, leading him into a small courtyard.
In the yard, many strangely shaped spirit plants were displayed, each one enclosed in a magic formation.
“Friend Lu, you can choose at will. If there’s no problem, we can then proceed with the exchange.”

“As Friend Fang suggests.”
Lu Xuan maintained his calm demeanor, but couldn’t help but chuckle internally.
“Nothing beats the neighbor’s spirit plants; mine never look as good.”
He walked up to the spirit plants, looking at this one and that, portraying an air of naivety.
“Friend Fang, can you tell me more about this Flame Spirit Plant? It seems quite nice.”
Lu Xuan walked up to a mutated spirit plant and asked curiously.
The trunk of the spiritual plant looked like a piece of burning charcoal. Numerous light red leaves flickered with star-like fires. Inside the branches and leaves, thin flames looked like long, slender fire snakes.
It was the third-grade Mutated Firewood he discovered inside the sect, which could condense fire essence inside its body.
“We’re not really clear about the exact species, as the changes during the mutation were too drastic. The types of spiritual plants in the Cultivation World are as numerous as the stars in the river. Even after studying it for a while, we haven’t managed to make much progress.”
“But that’s not to say we haven’t made any progress, when practicing the Fire System Technique near this mutated spiritual plant, our cultivation speed is slightly improved.”
The soft-spoken cultivator said slowly.
“That’s because you guys haven’t discovered the fire essence within it!”
Lu Xuan nodded, quietly laughing to himself.
This third-grade mutated Firewood could condense the fire spirit energy within it into rare fire essence.
Under normal circumstances, the fire essence and Firewood were one, making it extremely difficult to detect. Only by sensing the subtle changes in the fire essence and applying a strong force, can it be condensed out.
In Lu Xuan’s view, the value of the fire essence was far more precious than that of the mutated Dragon-patterned Wood.
Fang Qing and the other Lingxiao Sect cultivators only discovered the simple use of the Firewood and did not notice the mystery of the fire essence.
Without any hesitation, Fang Qing directly exchanged eight mutated spirit plants with Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan was pleased, as he continued to inspect the remaining mutated spirit plants.
“Hmm? There are actually three Arrow Vines?”
Among the numerous spirit plants, he found three familiar green-black vines.
The vines were adorned with hundreds of arrows of all shapes and sizes.
It was the Fourth Grade Exceptional Arrow Vine that Lu Xuan had been looking for.
At the Sky Sword Sect’s camp, he couldn’t find a single one, but he unexpectedly found three mutated Arrow Vines here at the Lingxiao Sect’s camp.
“It seems there is one that is just a seedling.”
Among the three green-black vines, one was only about half the size of the other two. The vine was lighter in color, and the numerous arrows hanging on it were all tiny and delicate.
“What a strange little thing.”
Lu Xuan chuckled softly, his interest piqued.
A seedling stage of the Fourth Grade Exceptional Arrow Vine, if he were to take it back to his cave and carefully nurture it, he was certain to receive a good light cluster reward.
“Friend Fang, is it possible to swap for this odd vine?”
“This…”
The soft-spoken young man hesitated at Lu Xuan’s question.
Although the green-black vine that Lu Xuan wanted was alluringly strong, he was hesitant to trade it for some Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood.
“I won’t lie to you, Friend Lu. This odd vine is incredibly aggressive. If we could figure out its origin and specific use, it could prove to be very useful.”
“As Friend Fang said, the premise is knowing its origin, peculiarity, and uses. But given the Lingxiao Sect’s cultivation of spiritual plants, if several of my fellow sect members can’t understand it clearly, not to mention a small Spirit Plant Master like me who came from the Sky Sword Sect.”
Lu Xuan responded calmly.
“Well… let’s trade it!”
After considering the utility of the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood, Fang Qing looked at his fellow sect members and directly nodded in agreement.
In their view, although the green-black vine was strong and its attack unpredictable, they could use a talisman tool of the same rank to substitute it. This was nothing compared to the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood, which could be used to enhance one’s body.
Lu Xuan took out three stalks of Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood and exchanged them for the Exceptional Arrow Vine from Fang Qing and the others.
He was satisfied. From Fang Qing and the others’ perspective, the uses of the Arrow Vine were quite one-dimensional. Although it was powerful, when exploring secret lands and hunting demon beasts and Demon Envoys, it was not convenient to carry with them.
But for Lu Xuan, it was different. He spent most of his time in his cave. When he ventured out occasionally, he could put the vine in the Fifth Rank Gluttony Bag, not worrying about the loss of vitality.
When left in the cave, he could carefully nurture the Arrow Vine for his own use. With its powerful attack, it could become a fixed artillery fort, guarding his Spirit Field.
Not to mention, when the Exceptional Arrow Vine matures, he could receive a white light cluster containing a generous reward.
When he planted several types of fourth-grade spiritual plants before, he was able to harvest several rare treasures. Naturally, he had much higher expectations for the mutated Fourth Grade Arrow Vine..
