Chapter 696: Do You Understand the Value of Being at the Top of the Industry?
After acquiring a grocery store in the Star Plucking Building, the wealth of rare treasures Lu Xuan had obtained from the Light Cluster provided him with a stable source of income, ensuring a continuous supply of Spirit Stones.
The speed at which he earned Spirit Stones could be described as earning a fortune daily without exaggeration.
As for cultivating Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Wood, his desire to obtain Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Ores was extremely strong, yet he was not very willing to personally explore and seek them out.
After all, his current Cultivation Level was only at the “Early Core Formation stage”, and he possessed only a few treasures, his risk resistance capacity was not at its fullest, it was safer to stay in his Cave Abode, cultivating spiritual plants, and collecting Light Clusters.
Opportunities were everywhere, and the safety of his Cave Abode was incomparably higher than that of the outer Secret Lands.
As for the Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Ore, he would simply buy it directly from the hands of Jindan Cultivators.
Lu Xuan made up his mind, but his expression showed hesitation.
“Thank you, Fellow Xuann Yuan, for making the special trip to invite me, but I’m afraid I must apologize to you.”
“Why? Do you not desire the Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Ore anymore, Friend Lu?”
Xuann Yuanzhe looked puzzled.
“I do desire it, but the journey to the Northern Endless Sea is long, and if I were to explore and travel through several Secret Lands, it would take at least a few months.”
“However, I have several high-grade spiritual plants in my Spirit Field that are about to mature and require daily careful attention. If I’m not at the Cave Abode, it’s likely the quality of the spiritual plants will be affected, and I really can’t free myself from this.”
Lu Xuan spoke with a mix of truth and deception.
“That’s a pity, I had hoped to help you acquire a piece of Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Ore.”
Xuann Yuanzhe said regretfully.
“I have a plan, but I do not know if Fellow Xuann Yuan and the other fellows would accept it?”
“Please speak, Friend Lu.”
“If the fellows manage to obtain the Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Ores successfully, I am willing to buy them at a high price from your hands.”
“As for the price, it can be decided based on the quality and weight of the Ore, and considering the risks you fellows take, I can accept paying a bit more than the market price.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
“A pre-purchase of Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Ore? This method of acquiring treasures is indeed novel,” Xuann Yuanzhe couldn’t help laughing.
In his mind, if a Cultivator knew the whereabouts of a desired treasure, they would try every means to personally secure it, even at the risk of their lives.
Lu Xuan’s approach of securing treasures through other Cultivators and then buying them off was something he had never seen before.
Lu Xuan gazed at the distant sky filled with fine lightning bolts and shook his head.
“Why fight for opportunities? Why not just buy them outright!”
Although Primordial Magnetic Spiritual Ores are rare and expensive, for cultivators who do not practice the related formula methods or divine skills, they are not very useful, so the possibility of successfully buying them is very high.
“You fight for chances; I cultivate my fields.”
He activated the Illusion and Disappearance Five Elements Array and the Cloud Bamboo Arrow Formation, then went to the Spirit Field Area to inspect the detailed condition of each spirit plant.
The surface of the Sixth Grade Buddha Sitting Lotus conveyed a tranquil and peaceful feeling with its bright yellow Buddhist radiance flowing around it.
A small novice monk’s phantom leaped out from the lotus leaf, sometimes deeply sleeping, sometimes sitting quietly in meditation. Every movement resonated with the charm of an enlightened monk.
The Fifth Grade Pure Bottle Willow, another Buddhist spirit plant, unknowingly extended delicate green willow branches from its bottle-shaped spirit soil structure, brimming with life and clarity. It felt like a gentle breeze brushing across the face, quietly soothing Lu Xuan’s body and mind.
Lu Xuan took care of the two Buddhist spirit plants, along with the other plants, nurturing them diligently and arrived at the area where Ice Firefly Grass was planted.
The thirty-six stalks of Ice Firefly Grass, which he obtained through condensing seeds and improving methods, had four fully mature plants picked a while ago, and among the remaining vibrant blue spirit grass, another five had fully matured.
He carefully harvested them, acquiring five White Light Groups, a reward of fifteen years’ worth of cultivation progress, one Fourth Grade Ice Soul Pill, and one Fourth Grade Ice Spirit Pill – suitable for Foundation Establishment Cultivators practicing ice-related cultivation techniques, which could slightly enhance the cultivators’ mana upon consumption.
“There are still twenty-seven Ice Firefly Grass stalks left. Having harvested over thirty years of cultivation progress, my strength has grown quite a bit.”
“There’s no need to rush to harvest the light clusters; expanding production to increase the yield is what’s important.”
“Once I can plant Ice Firefly Grass on a large scale, that will be the phase where my cultivation level rises swiftly.”
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
He planned to wait for the remaining Ice Firefly Grass to mature before picking seven more and leave twenty for condensing seeds to obtain more spiritual seeds.
Returning to the courtyard, Lu Xuan entered the Pill Room.
As soon as he entered, a wave of heat hit him.
In the center of the Pill Room, a simple set of Prohibitions and Restrictions was arranged, and above them floated more than a dozen fiery red lotus seeds.
The seeds were the size of a thumb tip, and inside they faintly showed streams of deep red smoke.
Beneath all the fiery red lotus seeds, there was a white-gold flame burning quietly. Periodically, a lotus seed would fall into the flame, enveloped and baked by it.
“Stimulated and induced by Pure Yang True Fire for such a long time, I wonder if these Lotus Seeds of the Earth Fire Heart Lotus have undergone any mutations.”
Lu Xuan murmured to himself as he approached the fiery red lotus seeds.
