Dawn had not yet broken.

“Roar ~ ~”

Lu Xuan was half-asleep when he suddenly heard a coarse roar.

He opened his eyes instantly, wide awake, and saw the Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink staring coldly at him from afar.

“Was that roar from you just now? That’s a bit…”

“…contrasting, don’t you think?”

As Lu Xuan gazed at the gracefully majestic Cloud Leopard Juvenile Beast crouching quietly on the bed, he found it difficult to reconcile the graceful image before him with the coarse roar he had heard earlier.

“Could you roar again for me?”

Lu Xuan asked tentatively.

The Cloud Leopard overlooked him, lightly jumping down to the ground, as if stepping on four white clouds.

Helpless, Lu Xuan got up from bed and was about to wash up when he heard another dubious roar from behind him.

“Roar…”

The voice had an obvious tone of compromise. Lu Xuan imagined a brawny robust man trying his utmost to act cute, which seemed weirdly out of place.

“That was a lovely roar, but please don’t do it again,” Lu Xuan said casually.

After washing, he fed it a few dried porcupine meat strips.

He had established a simple master-servant bond with the Cloud Leopard

Juvenile Beast after purchasing it yesterday.

This contract assured a close connection between the two. Certain empathy was possible, and if the spirit pet intended to harm the cultivator, the cultivator would sense it immediately.

The bond’s conditions and restrictions were fairly simple. The Beast Mastery Sect allegedly held a more complex blood pact, once established, a cultivator could determine the spirit pet’s life or death in an instant. If the cultivator unexpectedly died, the spirit pet would follow suit.

After breakfast, Lu Xuan headed to the Spirit Field and surveyed every area. In the Spirit Spring Pool, the Pure Snow Lotus had already sprouted several delicate white leaves. It was growing proudly in the mist, marking its place uniquely in the world.

Lu Xuan watered them with the Spirit Rain Technique, which held an icy spiritual power, making the small lotus leaves appear even more pristine and cold.

A few Blood Jade Ginseng roots were misbehaving, trying to mingle while Lu

Xuan was resting during the night.

He even noticed two Jade-like Spirit Ginsengs converging toward a Blood Jade

Ginseng from two different directions.

“If I hadn’t discovered you in time, wouldn’t you three have been playing a ‘triple-ginseng’ game?” Lu Xuan mockingly remarked, using the Earth Pulling Technique to correct the positions of the deviated Blood Jade Ginsengs.

Five pine nuts within the Red Cloud Pine’s thin, needle-like, red leaves had grown a bit larger, barely concealed and about to burst forth.

In the area planted with Spirit Firefly Grass, a hundred stems had entered their final maturity stage, each about a foot tall. Lu Xuan estimated that a few would yield a light cluster reward in the coming days.

After completing his inspection, he took several strange worms unearthed in the process and headed back to the edge of the Spirit Spring.

In the Spirit Spring Pool, a trio of Three-Tailed Red Whisker Carp swam around the Pure Snow Lotus, seemingly sensing some changes in the spiritual energy surrounding the lotus leaves.

■■This scene…to some extent, could be summarized by those four lines of

poetry.”

“Fish play among lotus leaves in the east, the west, the south, and the north.”

“The original poem implies thriving lotus leaves with fish appearing ceaselessly, whereas here in my Spirit Spring Pool, the Red Whisker Carp surround the Pure Snow Lotus, encompassing its four sides.’

Lu Xuan thought to himself before tossing a juicy worm into the Pool.

As soon as Lu Xuan approached the spring, the Three-Tailed Red Whisker Carp knew that food was about to descend. They each drew out a pair of long red whiskers and swam beneath Lu Xuan.

As soon as the worm was thrown in, six long whiskers shot out almost simultaneously, attacking it.

Suddenly, a black and white claw emerged from the edge of the spring, forcibly grabbing the six long red whiskers.

Under the pull of the paw, the body of the Red Whisker Carp jumped out of the shallow spring water.

Before Lu Xuan even had a chance to scold, the Cloud Leopard Juvenile Beast quickly let go of its black and white paw, allowing the Three-Tailed Red Whisker Carp to fall back into the Spiritual Spring Pool uncontrollably.

After this, the Red Whisker Carp, which had continuously been using its delicate long red whiskers to fish for Strange Worms, became much more well-behaved. It no longer dared to fling out its whiskers in front of Lu Xuan. Only when the Strange Worms fell to the surface of the water would it go to snatch them up.

Lu Xuan glared at the Cloud Leopard juvenile, now nestled at the edge of the Spirit Spring Pool, deducing that the initiative to catch fish was its instinct, while its immediate release was in compliance with his instructions.

The Cloud Leopard ignored Lu Xuan, but its steps were stealthy as it prowled silently around the edge of the Spirit Spring Pool, ready to pounce at a moment’s notice.

It seems that the Red Whisker Carp, having just suffered a huge loss, no longer dared to shoot out its red whiskers.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The wounds on the Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink had all scabbed over, and four stalks of Spirit Firefly Grass in the Spirit Field had matured.

Perhaps the spiritual energy in the Spirit Field was purer and more abundant, coupled with the fact that Lu Xuan had taken great care of them since they were Spiritual Seeds, he was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the matured Spirit Firefly Grass.

Two of them were of Superior Quality and two of Perfect Grade.

After the four Spirit Firefly Grass were harvested, four flickering white light clusters were left in their original spots.

Lu Xuan picked up the light clusters one by one.

“Harvested a Spirit Firefly Grass, gained Nine Months of Cultivation.”

“Harvested a Spirit Firefly Grass, gained One Year of Cultivation.”

Two ideas flashed through Lu Xuan’s mind.

The Spiritual Power in his body surged wildly within his meridians.

Lu Xuan operated his Cultivation Technique, controlling the flow of Spiritual Power within his body. Once it gradually calmed down, a smile appeared on his face, unable to be held back.

During this period, although he mainly focused on growing Spirit Plants, he still practiced hard in his spare time. However, the spiritual energy within his body could be said to be stagnant.

He wasn’t in a hurry, his talent was there after all, and such a cultivation speed was normal.

More importantly, with Spirit Firefly Grass light cluster rewards, whether or not his Spiritual Power increased during his daily hard cultivation wasn’t that important anymore.

Just like now, two Spirit Firefly Grass almost equaled two years of his hard cultivation.

“I’ve planted three batches of Spirit Firefly Grass so far. It’s clear that the quality at maturity has a huge impact on the light cluster rewards.” -From what I remember, the Ordinary Quality gives me Three Months Cultivation, the Good Quality gives me Six Months, the Superior Quality brings Nine Months, and the Perfect Grade provides a full year.” Thinking this in his heart, he continues to pick up the third white light cluster. -Harvested a Spirit Firefly Grass, gained Wood Generation Technique.”

A thought flashed through his mind.

“Wood Generation Technique, Wood-Based Technique. It can condense Wood energy, and to a certain degree, accelerate the growth of Spirit Plants.”

“Finally, a new technique has dropped.”

Following the Earth Pulling Technique and Golden Sword Technique, the light cluster from the Spirit Firefly Grass has presented a third technique.

This Wood Generation Technique is similar to the Earth Pulling Technique, both are rank-less techniques. They are not as powerful as the Golden Sword Technique but are more suitable for Lu Xuan.

“Just learned about this technique with its rather minimal ripening effects. If I absorb a few more Wood Generation Technique experience packages, I should be able to reduce the growth time of Spirit Plants considerably.

Lu Xuan secretly pondered this.

Finally, there is the last white light cluster, also brought by the Perfect Quality Spirit Firefly Grass.

The light cluster vanished, replaced by a talisman in Lu Xuan’s hand.

The talisman’s material was different from ordinary talismans, seemingly crafted from gold-iron alloy, with numerous small sword engravings on it. “Million Swords Qi Talisman, Second Grade Talisman. Activating it equals the full force attack of a High-tier Qi Cultivator, extremely strong offensive power.”

“A Second Grade Talisman!”

Lu Xuan’s heart surged with joy. The First and Second Grades fall under the scope of Qi Cultivation. Most First Grade Talismans equate to the full-force attack of a Lower Level Qi Cultivator, the better ones can reach the Mid-stage of Qi cultivation. Meanwhile, most Second Grade Talismans are the equivalent of a High-tier Qi Cultivator’s attack.

For Lu Xuan at this moment, it’s no less than a secret weapon..
