I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

There are not many varieties of spiritual plants in the jade book. There are about fifty kinds of third-grade ones, and more than half of the fourth-grade ones, with only more than twenty kinds.

However, they are all relatively rare species in the cultivation world, so they can only be exchanged for sword seals.

Lu Xuan did a rough scan and found that the difficulty of planting third- and fourth-grade spiritual plants was much higher than that of first- and second-grade spiritual plants.

Various conditions need to be met. For spiritual energy alone, the concentration and purity requirements of the spiritual energy are not the same level. Many spiritual plants even require a special spiritual environment.

In addition, there are strange conditions in terms of spiritual soil, cultivation methods, etc.

"Junior Brother Lu, do you plan to plant fourth-grade spiritual plants?"

The old farmer monk standing aside asked incredulously when he saw that Lu Xuan's eyes had been lingering on the jade book about fourth-grade spiritual plants.

"Just looking at it, with my current achievements in spiritual cultivation, I still can't cultivate a fourth-grade spiritual plant."

"So I just need to make preparations first and slowly accumulate the conditions to cultivate fourth-grade spiritual plants."

Lu Xuan said casually.

There are more than twenty kinds of fourth-grade spiritual plants on the jade book, and some of the patterns are in a dim state. This means that although Sinong Palace can condense the corresponding spiritual seeds, it will take a certain amount of time, and the corresponding fourth-grade spiritual seeds cannot be provided immediately.

"Fourth Grade Earth Fire Heart Lotus..."

On the jade album, a fiery red lotus flower slowly rotates. The lotus rhizome is light red and seems to be composed of countless irregular red crystals. The leaves are fiery red, and red magma seems to be slowly flowing in the veins of the leaves.

"It is very difficult to cultivate the Earth Fire Lotus. It is said that it needs to be planted in extremely hot magma. In addition, there are other planting conditions. Even the Foundation Architect Uncle cannot easily plant it successfully."

The old farmer monk informed Lu Xuan about the Earth Fire Heart Lotus, which he controlled.

"Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me."

After hearing that it needed to be planted in hot magma, Lu Xuan's interest suddenly dropped by more than half. With the current conditions in his cave, it was still unable to meet the growth requirements of the Earth Fire Heart Lotus.

He continued to read, and his eyes stopped on a strange-looking spiritual plant.

At first glance, the spiritual plant seems to be made up of the bodies of many weird insects. It is weird and harmonious, and has a strange beauty.

"This is the Mysterious Insect Vine, a fourth-grade spiritual plant. It seems to be closely related to various monsters and insects. I don't know the details."

The old farmer monk continued.

Lu Xuan nodded and read through it from beginning to end, gradually eliminating the bright patterns.

"The cave environment is still not enough. The growth conditions of most fourth-grade spiritual plants cannot be met."

Lu Xuan thought to himself, his eyes focused on the strange-shaped mysterious insect vine.

"Only the Mysterious Insect Vine seems to be easier to grow. I have the "Insect Scripture" in my hand, and I have a deep understanding of demonic insects. I can cultivate corresponding insects according to the needs of the Mysterious Insect Vine."

Although the shape of the Mysterious Insect Vine is a bit weird, it is nothing compared to the underworld spiritual plants such as the Thorn Bones and the Hundred-Eyed Creepy Wood in Jianmen Town.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and pointed at the pattern floating above the jade album.

"Senior brother, how many sword seals does this Mysterious Insect Vine need?"

"Junior Brother Lu, have you thought clearly? The conditions for cultivating the Mysterious Insect Vine can be said to be very complicated."

The old farmer monk reminded him kindly.

"It's okay. I can slowly explore and experiment. As for monsters and insects, I can also collect them bit by bit."

Lu Xuan said with a smile, his tone was careless, and he seemed to have no intention of planting the mysterious insect vine immediately.

"If you are a fourth-grade spiritual species, you will need a lot of sword seals."

"The mysterious insect vine spiritual seed requires two hundred and forty sword seals."

The old peasant monk replied.

"It's a little expensive..."

Lu Xuan secretly sighed in his heart. He remembered that when he exchanged the third-grade sword-raising gourd spiritual seed, he spent ninety sword seals. Now, the fourth-grade mysterious insect vine spiritual seed actually requires more than two hundred sword seals.

However, he also knew that the spiritual seeds in the sect had already reached the internal price. Although he was reluctant to part with them, he still honestly took out a sufficient number of sword seals and gave them to the old farmer monk.

"We can only wait until it matures and get good light group rewards."

The second-grade sword grass, dark marrow mushroom, Qing Miao Ling tea and other rewards are already quite good, and the fourth-grade mysterious insect vine naturally makes Lu Xuan look forward to it even more.

"Junior Brother Lu, take it carefully."

Seeing that Lu Xuan insisted on exchanging the mysterious insect vine spiritual seed, the old farmer monk did not dissuade him and quickly took out an exquisite wooden box from the inner hall.

Lu Xuan opened the wooden box and saw a dried spiritual seed the size of an egg inside.

The surface of the spiritual seed is uneven, and the colors and shapes of each part are different. It looks like a mixture of many insect eggs, and you can feel the rich vitality inside.

"Thank you, senior brother."

Lu Xuan put the mysterious insect vine spirit seed into the storage bag and said goodbye to the old farmer monk.

Back in the cave, the spirit crane carrying Lu Xuan still refused in every possible way and was determined not to let Lu Xuan pay the reward. Lu Xuan couldn't resist and had to give up.

"It seems that those spirit cranes have reached a consensus, and they can have sex for nothing in the future."

Lu Xuan couldn't help but smile, opened the formation, and after the white mist dissipated, he pushed open the courtyard door.

The young falcon and cloud-walking lynx still greeted us warmly.

Lu Xuan played with Er Xiao for a while, then came to the spiritual field and couldn't wait to take out the wooden box.

He found a blank area and used the Earth Drawing Technique. In an instant, the spiritual soil quietly changed, and a round hole slightly larger than an egg appeared on the ground.

He took out the black insect vine and put it into the round hole.

Immediately, he controlled the spiritual soil and buried the mysterious insect vine spiritual seed in the spiritual soil just right.

His mind was focused on the mysterious insect vine spiritual seeds in the spiritual soil.

In an instant, a thought flashed through his mind.

[Mysterious Insect Vine is a fourth-grade spiritual plant. When mature, it can increase the probability of demon insects being promoted to fifth-grade. It can also refine certain high-grade elixirs. 】

[When cultivated, it is in a symbiotic state with certain insects. The insect possesses the mysterious insect vine and provides growth nutrients for the mysterious insect vine. The mysterious insect vine secretes special spiritual substances to promote the growth of the demonic insect. 】

[When the demonic insect matures, it breaks free from the body of the mysterious insect vine, and its body remains on the mysterious insect vine, becoming part of the spiritual plant. 】

[Teng Teng, I like little bugs the most. 】

"It seems that we need to find some demonic insects that can shed their skins, place the eggs on the black insect vines to hatch them, and let them grow together."

"There are quite a lot of these kinds of monsters, such as cicadas, praying mantises, locusts, etc. There are also many records of related monsters in the "Insect Classic"."

"The demonic insects and the mysterious insect vines grow together. Doesn't that mean that I don't need to raise the demonic insects? When they mature, they can directly receive the light group reward?"

Lu Xuan had a sudden thought. He didn't expect that choosing this mysterious insect vine would have such a special effect.

Now there are no corresponding insect eggs on his body, so he can only use the spirit rain technique to maintain the vitality of the mysterious insect vine spiritual seeds.

If you want to promote growth, you need to parasitize insect eggs on spiritual seeds so that they can grow together.
