Lu Xuan tucked the Second-Grade Sword Qi Ten Thousand Talisman into his storage bag and happily returned to his room.

The Cloud Leopard Juvenile Beast stared at him with its green eyes, looked at Lu Xuan who was grinning, moved its ears, and then laid down on the ground.

Lu Xuan could roughly guess what the Civet Juvenile was thinking without focusing his mind, walked over to it, and rubbed its fluffy head.

“Meow…”

It was another strained meow.

Unfortunately, its natural condition was evident, and despite its efforts, the grunt still made a gruff sound.

Lu Xuan couldn’t help but secretly chuckle; he went into the kitchen, cut a piece of dried cactus meat, tore it into small strips, and placed them in front of the Civet Juvenile.

“The rewards from the perfect quality Spirit Firefly Grass are quite good. It seems that my path to meticulous cultivation has not been misguided.”

“As for whether plants with ranks like the Red Cloud Pine and Sword Grass can be cultivated to perfect quality, I’m not sure. If that is possible, the rewards should be even more considerable.”

“The possibility should be lower than that of Spirit Firefly Grass since their planting conditions are more complex, and it’s challenging to make them perfect.”

“I’ll just do my best.”

For the next few days, Lu Xuan stayed at home, cultivating spiritual plants, and raising Red-bearded Carp and Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink.

The Civet Juvenile maintained its cold and aloof temperament in front of Lu Xuan, but its true thoughts were often revealed through occasional glimpses into its inner state.

After the maturing of four Spirit Firefly Grasses which seemed to trigger a chain reaction, five more matured a few days later.

This batch was slightly lesser in quality compared to the first batch. Among the five that matured, one was of good quality, three were of superior quality, and only one was of perfect grade.

“Harvest one Spirit Firefly Grass, and gain nine months of cultivation.”

Lu Xuan picked up a white light cluster that had appeared on the ground. Two thoughts flashed in his mind as he did so.

He immediately felt an outburst of powerful spiritual power in his body, wreaking havoc throughout his body.

He closed his eyes, operated his cultivation technique, and tried to control the surging spiritual power within him.

When the spiritual power eventually subsided, Lu Xuan opened his eyes, his eyes clear and radiant.

Now, having added another year and a half of cultivation, he could feel his spiritual power reaching the peak of the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.

Next, as long as he diligently practiced cultivation and a few more Spirit Firefly Grass matured, he would be able to break through to the Qi Practicing Fifth Level.

“Harvest one Spirit Firefly Grass, and receive one first-grade Evil Banishing Talisman.”

A talisman carrying an imprisoned evil ghost appeared in Lu Xuan’s hand.

Lu Xuan put it into his storage bag, and began a new round of talisman accumulation.

“Harvest one Spirit Firefly Grass and receive the Wood Generation Technique.”

The white light cluster entered his mind, and a thought surfaced. Lu Xuan gained an experience package of the Wood Generation Technique.

Immediately, concepts about the principles, execution process, and spiritual power control of the Wood Generation Technique flashed through his mind like a slideshow.

Lu Xuan’s comprehension and control of the technique improved even more.

He had advanced from a beginner to proficient in the Wood Generation Technique.

Lu Xuan came to the Red Cloud Pine, operated his spiritual power, and a strand of spiritual power with a faint hint of green drifted into the slender pine leaves of the Red Cloud Pine.

In an instant, he felt the surrounding area of the Red Cloud Pine had a slight aggregation of wood-related spiritual power, full of vibrant vitality, integrating into the body of the spiritual plant.

With his mind focused on the Red Cloud Pine, even though there seemed to be no outward change, the faint woody spiritual power had stimulated growth in the Red Cloud Pine.

Lu Xuan tried out the Wood Generation Technique he just learnt from the experience package and then turned his attention to the last white light cluster.

This white light cluster was bestowed by the only perfect grade Spirit Firefly Grass, which made Lu Xuan have certain expectations for it.

“Harvested Spirit Firefly Grass one, gained Grass Spirit Elixir one drop.”

This idea flashed through Lu Xuan’s mind.

Suddenly, a drop of green liquid appeared in Lu Xuan’s hand.

The liquid was droplet-shaped, about half the size of Lu Xuan’s thumb, semi-solid, displaying a lush green color and emitting a vigorous breath of life.

“Grass Spirit Elixir, made from the essence of abundant plants, the elixir contained rich plant spiritual energy. It could be used to feed demon beasts that eat plant spiritual energy, or used in the refining of related elixirs, or fused into magic artifacts, formations, puppets, and other related treasures.”

“Grass Spirit Elixir, it sounds quite good, but how should it be used?”

Lu Xuan held the trembling liquid in his hand, which could burst at any moment, and fell into contemplation.

“I got it! Isn’t there a ready-made Grass Puppet available? It was refined from the special withered grass and is a woody treasure.”

Lu Xuan turned his head and looked at the Grass Puppet that was guarding in the corner.

This Grass Puppet was a secondhand good that he had got from the Loose Cultivation Market. It was rumored to come from the Thousand Mechanism Sect, famous for their puppets, and was programmed with very simple behavior.

When outsiders or demon beasts invaded the spirit field, it would alert Lu Xuan and tried to bind the intruders.

When the Qi Practitioner Intermediate Level cultivator, Qin Ming, tried to sneak attack him, the Grass Puppet intercepted the deadly strike of the spear for Lu Xuan. It was indeed very useful.

“I usually feed you Broken Spirits, today I will feed you something different.”

Lu Xuan walked to the Grass Puppet, bent down, and stuffed the Grass Spirit Elixir into the large withered grass lump on its head.

The originally gray lump visibly turned green at an astonishing speed.

“Huh, I just dyed this thing green for you.”

Lu Xuan laughed softly, and when he saw that the Grass Puppet showed no reaction, he continued to inspect the spirit plants in the spirit field.

Half a day later, he returned to the corner of the yard and found that the green tint on the head of the Grass Puppet had faded a lot.

After absorbing the drop of Grass Spirit Elixir, there were significant changes in the Grass Puppet.

Before, it always stayed quietly in the corner of the spirit field. If there were no invaders in the spirit field, it would stay in place, motionless.

One was because it inherently lacked mobility, and second, it had no spiritual intelligence and could only perform a few simple instructions.

After digesting the Grass Spirit Elixir, Lu Xuan noticed it produced a trace of faint spiritual intelligence. It began to move its head from side to side of its own accord, observing its surroundings.

When Lu Xuan gave the order to patrol the spirit field, the Grass Puppet seemed to understand and slowly moved around at an extremely slow pace.

At the same time, the dried gray grass on its body also underwent more changes, becoming stronger. It could instantaneously shoot out numerous grass ropes, and also twist and condense a thicker and longer rope.

The only thing that did not change was, its reaction speed was still sluggish, it took quite a while to act after receiving Lu Xuan’s instructions.

“Now that the spirit field is bigger, your task is more difficult. Remember to inspect the spirit field when you are free.”

Lu Xuan gave a lengthy explanation to the Grass Puppet.

The Grass Puppet remained still, its disproportionately large head and gray grass-wrapped face gazing blankly at Lu Xuan.

When Lu Xuan disappeared from its sight, a faint green light seemed to flash in the gray grass. Then, the Grass Puppet stepped its thin grass legs one after the other, its gray grass head toppling a huge tumor that was still a bit green and walked slowly in the spirit field..
