You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 1086: Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood
“The Sword Mystic Porcupines share an indescribable connection with me;they are extremely gentle by nature, and as your Disciple, I hold a fondness for various Spirit Beasts.”
“Therefore, there was no inconvenience caused at my end.”
Although Lu Xuan anticipated the treasure item that his uncle from Hundred Artisans Sword Peak was about to present, he maintained his manners, saying politely,
“The Sword Mystic Porcupines occupy that marvelous scabbard of yours, using it to nurture the sword blades on their bodies, and even preventing you from using it yourself. Solely for this reason, you deserve the gratitude of Hundred Artisans Sword Peak.”
Lu Xuan shook his head, “Uncle, you overstate things.”
“We are all fellow disciples of the Sword Sect;helping each other is only right.”
“I rarely venture out, so that scabbard merely stays by my side, unused. Helping the Sword Mystic Porcupines grow is its honor.”
He explained, though his words diverged from his thoughts.
“Regardless, Hundred Artisans Sword Peak ought to properly express gratitude to you.”
“I’ve heard you enjoy collecting various high-grade rare Spiritual Species and seedlings. Just so happens that Hundred Artisans Sword Peak recently acquired a Spiritual Plant Seedling, and we would like to present it to you.”
As soon as Chen Bingxue finished speaking, the hitherto silent Xu Wenbai stepped forward, retrieving a Spirit Wood seedling from his Storage Bag.
The seedling was about three inches tall, pale black in color, looking somewhat strange.
It resembled a lump of modeling clay that could change the form of the Spirit Wood when touched lightly, rendering the wood highly malleable.
“This is a Seventh Grade Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood, regarded as extremely rare even in Hundred Artisans Sword Peak, particularly suitable for disciples skilled in artifact refining.”
“This Spirit Wood has a nickname among the Inner Sect Disciples of Sword Peak, called a ‘Growth-Type Magic Treasure.’ From this name, one can glimpse the mystical nature of the wood.”
Chen Bingxue smiled ambiguously.
“A Growth-Type Magic Treasure? What does that have to do with the Spirit Wood?”
Lu Xuan asked curiously.
“During its growth, the Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood needs to be forged with artifact refining techniques, compressing Spiritual Energy to shape the wood,”
“during which it requires countless forgings, hence the name ‘Ten Thousand Forged.'”
“Once the Spirit Wood fully matures, it essentially becomes a naturally semi-finished Magic Treasure forged countless times. Moreover, unlike ordinary treasures, due to its special material and having been forged from seedling stage, it’s easier to control, with a higher magic conductivity and stronger power.”
Chen Bingxue detailed to Lu Xuan.
“The Cultivation World truly contains all sorts of wonders, to think there is such a peculiar high-grade Spirit Wood.”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes blazing with fervor as he gazed at the pale black seedling.
This change didn’t escape the Divine Sense of the Nascent Soul True Monarch.
Chen Bingxue’s smile broadened, “Disciple, please accept it.”
“With such a valuable treasure, I am unworthy,”
Lu Xuan said humbly, looking down. The treasure presented by Hundred Artisans Sword Peak indeed exceeded his expectations.
Who would have thought that simply providing a full maintenance for the Sword Mystic Porcupines, Hundred Artisans Sword Peak would actually bring out a Seventh Grade Spiritual Wood seedling.
“It’s fine. There are also a few personal motives for presenting this Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood to you, Disciple. I hope that you will continue to use that marvelous scabbard to nurture the Sword Mystic Porcupines.”
“If Disciple doesn’t mind, apart from this Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood seedling, Sword Peak is willing to add other treasures, in exchange for that marvelous scabbard of yours.”
Chen Bingxue asked softly.
Lu Xuan pondered for a moment.
“I will continue to nurture the Sword Mystic Porcupine sword blade,” Disciple Lu said.
“However, I am deeply attached to the scabbard that has been with me for so many years, so I can only apologize to Senior Uncle.”
The scabbard and the Sword Mystic Porcupine complemented each other in Yin and Yang. He wished to utilize the Sword Mystic Porcupine more to satisfy the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath.
But if he had to give up the scabbard, he would no longer consider the idea.
Although the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath was a bit selective and prone to favoring new over old, having abandoned some of the Flying Swords previously, it held unusual significance for Lu Xuan.
The Thousand Thunder Sword Grass and the Xiao Dongxuan Sword Gourd had primarily been catalyzed and improved through it, and it was also playing a crucial role in the ongoing improvement of the Fifth Rank Sword Grass Spirit Seed. Naturally, he could not relinquish it to the Hundred Artisans Sword Peak.
“It’s alright, it’s alright. I was just asking casually. It’s good if Disciple Lu is willing to continue nurturing the Sword Mystic Porcupine long term.”
Chen Bingxue said with a smile.
“By the way, Disciple Lu, there’s something I must remind you about. Cultivating this Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood requires some basics of instrument refining. If you haven’t studied it, you might consult Wen Bai or other disciples from the Hundred Artisans Sword Peak.”
“Sure, if I encounter any problems during cultivation, I will definitely come and consult Senior Brother Xu.”
Lu Xuan smiled at Xu Wenbai, who had been quietly tasting the Spirit Brew all this while.
“You are most welcome!”
Xu Wenbai said with a bow.
Lu Xuan’s words were merely a courtesy. In his collection of cultivation techniques, his capability in refining instruments was relatively lower but still surpassed many ordinary artifact refiners.
He had acquired treasures like”Essentials of Hundred Refinements” and”Gale-Thirty-Six Hammer” from a Light Cluster, and tried refining instruments during his spare time. The most basic forging was not a problem for him.
“Alright, Disciple Lu, we’ll have to trouble you to patiently deal with those Sword Mystic Porcupines later. They might come to bother you quite often.”
Chen Bingxue stood up and said.
“No problem, my cave abode will always welcome them.”
Lu Xuan volunteered eagerly, intending to use the Sword Mystic Porcupines to better satisfy the scabbard and stimulate it to cultivate high-ranking Sword Grass Spirit Seed.
After seeing the two out of his cave abode and watching until their figures completely disappeared, he hurried to the Spirit Field. At its center, he found a vacant spot where he planted the light black seedling.
His mind focused on it, and he instantly understood the detailed information about the Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood.
[Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood, Seventh Grade Spirit Plant, must be planted in an environment with pure dense Spiritual Energy and Spirit Soil. The Spirit Wood is highly malleable, and its mature form is largely determined by the cultivator. It requires the techniques of instrument forging for growth during its maturation period.]
[After maturation, the Spirit Wood is a natural prototype of a Magic Treasure. It can be easily refined into a Magic Treasure, has enhanced potency, is easier to control, and if special refining techniques are used, many wonderful uses can be added.]
[A thousand hammerings and a hundred refinements bring forth one’s true self. Let the hammering be intense!]
“…”
“This cheekiness really makes my hands itch.”
Lu Xuan smirked, thinking to himself as a Spiritual Energy Hammer appeared in front of the light black seedling.
With a solid strike, the hammer smashed against the side of the Spirit Wood seedling, causing a small indentation.
As his mind perceived, a slight sensation of joy came from the Spirit Wood, seemingly looking forward to more vigorous hammering.
“I’ll satisfy this small request of yours.”
Lu Xuan thought to himself. He was able to keep track of the detailed status of the Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood at any time, so he was not worried that using”Gale-Thirty-Six Hammer”might damage the wood.
More Spiritual Energy Hammers appeared one after another, hammering the Ten Thousand Forged Spirit Wood frenzically.
As one hammer fell, another had already descended, drastically altering the shape of the Spirit Wood.
Within these changes, a unique vitality was gradually enhancing.
