I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 1045 - 1043: Zodiac Star Battle Sword
"All beginnings are hard, but once a mutated Thousand Thunder Sword Grass Spirit Seed appeared, it was much easier to improve and get a fifth-order spiritual species."
Lu Xuan continued to inspect the remaining Silver White Spirit Seeds.
"In total, I obtained two mutated spirit seeds, but I have no idea what the origin of the thunder spirit breath inside them is."
"Once the improvement is successful, I should be able to get detailed information."
Lu Xuan took out the remaining two mutated spirit seeds and carefully stored them.
The rest of the twenty-plus spiritual seeds, which were full of vigor and had not suffered any damage, he planned to continue storing in the scabbard to stimulate their growth.
These two, he could temporarily plant; once the spirit plants matured, based on the previous Thousand Thunder Sword Grass Condense Seed Technique and his ability to learn detailed information about the spiritual plants, he could condense more mutated spirit seeds.
"The former mainly depends on luck, yielding fewer mutated spirit seeds, but it doesn't take much time."
"The latter allows getting a stable amount of mutated spirit seeds, but it requires spending a lot of time and effort to condense seeds."
"Using both methods is the right path."
Lu Xuan thought to himself, looking at the ancient sword sheath that was reluctant to swallow the Sword Grass Spirit Seeds, his mouth curving into a smile.
"Are spirit seeds too small to satisfy you?"
"In recognition of your contribution to stimulating the spirit seeds, let's let you thoroughly enjoy the feeling of overwhelming passion."
Before he finished speaking, a blood-red longsword brimming with intense and pure intent to kill thrust deeply into the scabbard.
With murderous intent boiling over, filling every corner of the scabbard, along with the superior material of the Sixth Grade Seven Slaughter Sword infused with surging sword intent, the sheath which had not had a flying sword inserted into it for a long time trembled non-stop.
"Let's add some Sword Qi Thunder Sound to liven things up!"
Lu Xuan flicked his finger, and a silver white sword light with the sound of rolling thunder shot straight into the opening of the scabbard.
Under the stimulation of the Sword Qi Thunder Sound, the pleasure the scabbard received intensified considerably, and the Resentful Will that had grown inside due to the long presence of the small spirit seeds dissipated into nothingness.
After satisfying the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath well, Lu Xuan continued to stuff it with over twenty more Thousand Thunder Sword Grass Spirit Seeds, leaving them at Heart Sword Lake to stimulate and induce them, despite its objections.
Back in the cave abode of the Huanzhen Sword Peak, he began cultivating spiritual plants and raising spirit beasts again.
Half a year passed in a blink of an eye.
Behind the cave abode, thunder rumbled on, mixing with the high-pitched and sharp cries of the Sky Monkey.
Lu Xuan's Spiritual Sense swept over the area, the White Jade Sky Monkey had transformed into a size of seven to eight zhang, with red eyes and dancing fur, and its fists pounding violently against a silver white streak of thunder.
As the thunder dashed to avoid the attacks, lightning bolts as thick as a wrist shot out stealthily and struck the White Ape's body.
Compared with its initial days in the cave abode where it could only passively take hits, the Thunder Dragon Behemoth had grown a lot, relying on its speed advantage, it had managed to fight on par with the White Ape, which had rich combat experience.
"Speaking of which, the Thunder Dragon Behemoth is about to grow into its complete form."
The Thunder Dragon Behemoth was a Strange Species of Thunder Beast with unique talents and a robust flesh body, mastering various secret thunder methods. It had been with Lu Xuan for several decades, fed countless Thunderstorm Lotus Seeds, along with Thousand Forms Grass and other rare spiritual medicines, and its growth was astonishingly fast, nearly reaching its complete form.
"I wonder what kind of Light Cluster I can gain from this rare, fifth-grade strange Thunder Behemoth."
Lu Xuan secretly thought.
The rewards in the form of Light Clusters obtained from demon beasts were usually more generous than those from cultivating spiritual plants, and as the Thunder Dragon Behemoth was a rare type of Strange Demon Beast, this made Lu Xuan quite anticipatory.
He didn't bother with the two spirit beasts that were currently engaged in an intense sparring practice, and instead, he went over to the spirit field to check on the spirit plants.
In the spirit field, the remaining five five-grade Sword Grass had all matured, and Lu Xuan gained five relatively impressive treasures.
Two Experience Packages for the practice of Sword Qi Thunder Sound, a Sixth Grade Seven Slaughter Sword, a piece of Sixth Grade Dongxuan Sword Stele, and a Sixth Grade Elemental Crystal Sword Embryo.
After collecting all the gains, he went to the Sword Palace Spirit Plant Hall and exchanged them for twenty Tier 5 Sword Grass Spirit Seeds, all of which were cultivated in three types.
Since he was extremely proficient with the corresponding sword techniques of those three types of Sword Grass, Lu Xuan did not exchange them for new varieties of Sword Grass.
He didn't even exchange for new Sixth Grade Sword Grass Spirit Seeds.
The sword formation used to cultivate the seven Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass was incredibly complex and profound; even with the assistance of a Clear Sword Heart and Thundering Sword Gall, he had only grasped the basics.
Moreover, cultivating the Tier 5 Infinite Sword Grass of Freedom required one to condense sword light into extreme mastery, in addition to cultivating spiritual plants, practicing divine skills, making talismans, alchemy, and so on. He currently had no spare energy left to comprehend new high-rank sword techniques and cultivate other varieties of Sixth Grade Sword Grass.
The two Mutated Thousand Thunder Sword Grass had grown into seedlings about an inch long, displaying a faint silver-white color.
Although the seedlings appeared inconspicuous, they were exceedingly tenacious; like tiny swords pointed straight up at the heavens, surrounded by flickering lightning and electric arcs.
"The Sword Qi is denser and purer than that of the ordinary Thousand Thunder Sword Grass of the same period, and it contains a subtle force of thunder," he observed.
Lu Xuan had cultivated countless Thousand Thunder Sword Grass and was silently comparing the differences between the two.
After the first round of screening, no new Mutated Spirit Seeds had been induced in the Heart Sword Lake cave abode.
Lu Xuan was not in a hurry, having made long-term plans for improving the five-grade Sword Grass.
On the other side, the seven Origin Spirit Ginseng were in a state of Condensing Seed. A large amount of primordial Qi and plant spirit aura converged under Lu Xuan's guidance, merging together masterfully.
Lu Xuan was carefully and cautiously inspecting the state of the spiritual seeds that were in gestation, fearing any mishap.
The Origin Spirit Ginseng were crucial to his ascension to the Nascent Soul stage and were his guarantee for rapidly improving his cultivation level once in the Nascent Soul Realm. It couldn't be too careful.
"With these seven Origin Spirit Ginseng, based on my experience from the previous two Condensing Seed processes, I should obtain more than twenty spiritual seeds."
"At last, I can plant them on a large scale and amass cultivation swiftly."
Lu Xuan mused in his heart.
Two more months passed, and the Sixth Grade Star Shifting and Sun Swapping Sword Grass that he had been cultivating for many years finally matured.
Lu Xuan carefully harvested the Sword Grass, unable to afford a detailed examination as his attention was completely captured by a quietly arriving White Light Group.
He gently touched the surface of the light group, and countless specks of light entered his body.
[Harvested one stalk of Sixth Grade Star Shifting and Sun Swapping Sword Grass, obtained a Seventh Grade Flying Sword – Zodiac Star Battle Sword.]

A thought rapidly crossed his mind.
In an instant, Lu Xuan found himself in a vast starry sky, where the sun, moon, and stars each moved in a complex trajectory, resplendently immense.
In the blink of an eye, the starry sky quietly shattered into countless luminous fragments rushing towards him, condensing into an extraordinary flying sword before him.
The flying sword was crystal clear as if forged from meteors outside the heavens, with a shimmer on its surface. When his mind sank into it, it turned into stars whose brightness varied unpredictably.
[Zodiac Star Battle Sword, a Seventh Grade Flying Sword exclusive to the Dongxuan Sword Sect; its Sword Qi sweeps across like the Milky Way, bringing down celestial bodies, unmatched.]
[Merged and refined with Nine Sixth Grade Magical Instruments – the Star Battle Flag – it can lay down a Seventh Grade Zhou Sky Star Fighting Sword Array that can easily annihilate any Primordial Infant True Monarch who enters the sword formation.]
