I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 950 - 948: Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass
"I can’t believe my luck is this good!"
He reflected to himself.
The Sword Sect possessed two types of spiritual seeds: those that it could steadily produce and those acquired through various channels, stored in the treasury of the Spiritual Plant Hall.
The first type was relatively easy to acquire; the second depended mainly on luck.
The spiritual seeds recorded on the white jade stele that Lu Xuan was examining all belonged to the second type.
His Spiritual Sense swept over it and immediately detected the presence of the Origin Spirit Ginseng Seed.
"Two seeds, priced at 300 Sword Marks each."
"That’s a bit too expensive."
He was inwardly astonished.
300 Sword Marks were roughly equivalent to one hundred thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.
Compared to ordinary fifth-grade spiritual species, the price was two to three times higher.
"The prices of the Dongxuan Sword Sect are higher by one or two percent than when in the Heavenly Star Cave; of course, the key issue is not this but the fact that Origin Spirit Ginseng Seeds are so hard to come by."
"The seeds are hidden in a peculiar space called the Primordial Sea. To enter, I don’t know how many realms one must pass through, and they are firmly controlled by several major powers within, rarely circulating outside."
Lu Xuan compared them to the common fifth-grade spiritual seeds listed on the stele.
Those ordinary fifth-grade spiritual seeds required just over one hundred Sword Marks to exchange, roughly thirty percent of the cost of the Origin Spirit Ginseng Seed.
"I guess that’s the main reason these seeds are still available now."
"But no matter how expensive, I have to exchange them!"
"After all, it’s only a mere 600 Sword Marks."
Lu Xuan thought with considerable gusto.
With the 10,000 Sword Marks rewarded by the Sword Palace in hand, he naturally did not take this amount seriously.
As the Golden Core Real Person had said, he separated a wisp of his Spiritual Sense and left a mark on the odd characters of the Origin Spirit Ginseng Seed listing within the stele.
The mark represented that the spiritual seed was selected; if he paid up the Sword Marks within twelve times, he could receive the seeds from the Spiritual Plant Hall.
If multiple people left marks on the same seed, priority would be given to the first cultivator who left their mark.
Moreover, each cultivator was limited in the number of spiritual seeds they could label, regardless of rank, no more than five.
If payment was not completed within twelve times, the mark would be cleaned up by a deacon inside the Spiritual Plant Hall and made available for others to choose again.
After selecting two Origin Spirit Ginseng Seeds, Lu Xuan felt pleased and continued to examine the types of spiritual seeds listed on the stele.
"This one’s good, it can be an alternative."
"This one is also fine, worth a try."
There weren’t many types or quantities of seeds on the stele, and he quickly finished browsing and chose a few as alternatives before moving on to the other white jade steles.
These recorded the species of spiritual plants that the Dongxuan Sword Sect could steadily produce, which were relatively easier to obtain.
Of course, this was based on the premise of having enough Sword Marks.
First, he entered the stele recording the fifth-grade spiritual species.
"There are a total of twenty-eight fifth-grade spiritual species, including thirteen types of Five-grade Sword Grass, of which only six are currently exchangeable."
"Additionally, there are fifteen other types of fifth-grade spiritual species, including ordinary varieties as well as those that are extremely rare normally."
"Among the same rank of spiritual species, the rewards for Sword Grass Light Clusters far surpass other plants, and each variety is extremely generous, so they must be prioritized as the first choice."
Lu Xuan didn’t need to mark these seeds, so, keeping them in mind, he continued to the final white jade stele.
If he could choose, he would of course prefer to cultivate sixth-grade spiritual plants.
Although the cultivation cycle was longer and the difficulty higher, once matured, it was extremely likely to obtain a seventh-grade treasure item.
He pondered this as his spiritual sense entered the white jade stele.
Information about various spiritual seeds flashed through his sea of consciousness.
"Six types of sixth-grade Sword Grass, not bad, but a pity only four types can be exchanged. The other two’s illustrated handbook are in a dimmed state, indicating that the Sect temporarily cannot provide them."
"Additionally, there are eight other kinds of spiritual plants."
"To be able to obtain fourteen types of sixth-grade spiritual seeds steadily, the strength of the Sword Sect is evident."
Lu Xuan quietly marvelled.
High-grade spiritual seeds were extremely difficult to obtain; even if one could condense seeds, it would require very stringent conditions and methods, and the method of seed condensation played more of an auxiliary role at this stage.
To successfully condense seeds, besides having rich experience and outstanding methods, one would usually need strange treasures and precious locations for a possible successful cultivation.
Among the four presently available sixth-grade Sword Grasses, he saw the familiar Star Shifting Sun and Moon Sword Grass.
The completely illustrated handbook of the Sword Grass was highly eye-catching, with sword light sweeping across like the rotation of the sun, moon, and stars, possessing an irresistible majestic presence.
The information below it also didn’t differ from what Lu Xuan initially learned.
"Such a rare Sword Grass; my luck wasn’t bad to come across a spiritual seed at the auction that time."
"With my previous cultivation experience, cultivating another stalk of Star Shifting Sun and Moon Sword Grass will be much easier."
"I can take one."
Lu Xuan noticed that the exchange price for a Star Shifting Sun and Moon Sword Grass spiritual seed was 1,100 sword marks, which was within his acceptable range.
"Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass... seems a bit different from the other few sixth-grade Sword Grasses."
He noticed the uniqueness of a sixth-grade Sword Grass.
Seven Cangqing Sword Grasses stood erect in the air, faintly forming a powerful array.
The sword array was ever-changing, each resonating with the others; their sword intent was like mighty rivers, flowing endlessly. Although there were phases of prosperity and decline, death’s terrifying power lurked within them.

His spiritual sense focused on the detailed description of this Cangqing Sword Grass.
[Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass, sixth grade, seven stalks live and die together, to be cultivated with a specific array. Once matured, they can split and join at will, forming a sixth-grade Evergreen Wither Bloom Sword Array that harbors the mysteriousness of life and death, with a certain chance of killing early Nascent Soul stage cultivators trapped within the array.]
"A sixth-grade sword array that could kill Primordial Infant True Monarchs!"
Lu Xuan was inwardly amazed.
"Seven stalks of sixth-grade Sword Grass, considered as one from the stage of being spiritual seeds, cultivated together, will form a natural sword array upon maturity, with endless lethality. Even an early Nascent Soul stage cultivator trapped within the array could possibly die inside."
"So this seems, the seven Cangqing Sword Grasses put together are more powerful than an average middle-rank magical treasure, and of course, stronger than many seventh-grade spiritual plants."
"I must grow them!"
Lu Xuan firmly thought to himself.
The sword marks he had were enough to buy a seventh-grade spiritual seed, but his cultivation at the Golden Core Late Stage did not qualify him to purchase seventh-grade spiritual seeds.
Only Primordial Infant True Monarchs or those who made great contributions to the Sect could possibly obtain them.
Although the Thousand Thunder Sword Grass and the Xiao Dongxuan Sword Gourd he improved were precious, he had already obtained 10,000 sword marks as a reward. Even after a few years of verifying the method of condensation, it would be difficult to get a seventh-grade Sword Grass spiritual seed.
"To obtain this Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass spiritual seed that is not inferior to a seventh-grade spiritual seed at a lower price is also a good choice."
He thought to himself.
"The Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass spiritual seed is priced at 1,000 sword marks each, but they can only be purchased seven at a time, meaning it would cost 7,000 sword marks."
"Adding the Star Shifting Sun and Moon Sword Grass at 1,100 and two Origin Spirit Ginseng Seeds at 600, it seems that 10,000 sword marks still wouldn’t be enough."
"It’s a pity that the Sword Sect does not allow the purchase of sword marks with spirit stones; otherwise, it would be nice to go on a spending spree."
Lu Xuan thought to himself, approaching a Golden Core Late Stage Sword Cultivator.
