Chapter 954 Cooperation
“Sir, thank you for your hard work, please have some tea.”
As soon as Lu Xuan came back from the spiritual field, the White Jade Qingtian Ape came to him with a cup of steaming spiritual tea.
“You little guy, you are still waiting on others just for a bite to eat.”
Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh. A silver lotus seed appeared in his palm, turned into a wonderful arc, and fell into the mouth of the little white ape.
The little white ape entered the cave and became the guardian spirit beast for more than a month.
During this period, the cave was much more lively than usual. The little white ape even learned various ways to serve people. When Lu Xuan went out, he fulfilled his duties of looking after the house and the courtyard very well.
When Lu Xuan came back from the spiritual field, he was able to drink a sip of freshly brewed spiritual tea, which made Lu Xuan extremely satisfied.
He sat in the courtyard, slowly drinking spiritual tea, while overlooking the endless sea of clouds below.
“Nephew Lu, are you in the cave?”
At this moment, a familiar voice came into his ears.
“Lu Xuan met Uncle Yuan.”
Lu Xuan quickly stood up, flew to the entrance of the cave, and welcomed Yuan Rong in.
“You’re not disturbing my nephew’s practice, are you?”
Yuan Rong asked with a smile.
“I just came back from the spiritual field not long ago, and I haven’t gone to practice yet.”
Lu Xuan said quickly.
“I came here this time because I have something to ask my nephew for your cooperation.”
"You must also know, my nephew, that the Sword Sect has nine sword peaks. Although they are in the same sect, it is impossible to treat them equally. There is still a lot of competition overtly and covertly."
“In addition to comparing the strength of monks in various realms, they will also compare various aspects such as practicing various arts.”
“My nephew, you are good at spiritual plants, sword talismans, and spiritual brews. In addition to letting you cultivate a large amount of sword grass, I also want to have more cooperation with you, my nephew.”
Yuan Rong said with a smile. He didn't have the airs of a Yuanying monk in front of Lu Xuan.
“I don’t know what kind of cooperation method it is?”
Lu Xuan asked curiously.
“Jianfeng will provide you, my nephew, with the main materials for making talismans and spiritual brews for free. After you refine them, I will use the sword seal as a reward at a suitable price and exchange them from you, my nephew.”
“Of course, there is a guaranteed quantity, but with your ability, nephew, you should have no problem completing the guaranteed task.
As for how many sword seals you can get in exchange, that depends on your own abilities, nephew. "
Yuanrong explained in detail.
“I have no problem, but it’s up to the masters and uncles to make the decision.”
Lu Xuan said calmly.
Since he entered Jianfeng, he has enjoyed a lot of benefits, and he still has to bear his due obligations.
Moreover, whether it is drawing sword talismans or brewing spiritual brew, for him who has absorbed multiple experience packs, his success rate is higher than other talisman masters and spiritual brew masters, and he can earn a lot of sword seals through this.
After the two discussed the details of the cooperation, Yuan Rong stood up and left.
“Master Nephew Lu, I won’t disturb your practice anymore.”
“After a while, the materials my nephew needs will be sent to you.”
“Uncle Yuan, walk slowly.”
Lu Xuan sent Yuan Rong to the entrance of the cave and watched her graceful figure disappear into the sea of clouds.
“Save up more sword seals and see if you can exchange them for one or two seventh-grade sword and grass spiritual seeds in the next few years.”
He sighed secretly.
The Dongxuan Sword Sect is many times larger than the Hailou Chamber of Commerce, and the opportunities to obtain high-level spiritual seeds have also increased, and Lu Xuan is unwilling to let it go.
Other ways are either for him to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, or to improve the spiritual plant that is better than the Xiaodong Xuanjian Gourd.
With his current cultivation level, before Yuan Ling Ginseng can be stably produced, he is still some distance away from Yuan Ying. As for improving the fifth-grade sword grass, he had just joined the Sword Sect not long ago. The difficulty of improving the fifth-grade spiritual plant was countless times higher than that of the fourth-grade, and it was also unrealistic.
Thinking in his mind, he had the idea to exchange for more sword seals.
After asking Shang Xiuyuan, Lu Xuan came to a small market at the outer gate of Jianzong.
The market is not too far away from the nine Sword Peaks. Many Sword Peak disciples exchange and buy and sell treasures here. Over time, this place was formed.
“The overall level of the Sword Sect is indeed extremely high.”
Lu Xuan sighed secretly as he walked on the bluestone streets in the market.
On the streets, disciples of the Sword Sect were coming and going. As far as the eye could see, most of them were in the foundation-building realm. A few were Qi-training monks, and there were two or three alchemy masters out of every hundred people.
This kind of ratio is simply impossible to appear in the Tianxing Cave Star Picking Tower.
Lu Xuan stopped from time to time and asked the disciples setting up stalls about the prices of various treasures. After getting a general understanding of the prices of items in the Sword Sect, he chose an empty area.
With a flick of his hand, a bunch of treasures closely related to sword cultivation appeared on the stall.
Fourth and fifth-grade sword talismans, Huanzhen sword liquid, Xiaodongxuan sword gourd... and even a thundering sword gallbladder.
Since he arrived relatively late, he could only choose an extremely remote location.
But after those treasures appeared, they quickly attracted the attention of many disciples.
“I have met this uncle, and I dare to ask him, what kind of sword gourd is this? It looks very similar to the sword gourd, but the grade is one level higher.”
A foundation-building disciple with sharp eyes came to the stall and was attracted by the mottled green sword gourds.
"My nephew has good eyesight. This gourd is called Xiaodongxuan Sword Gourd. It is an improved version of the third-grade sword-raising gourd. The warm sword energy inside has undergone a qualitative change."
“The upgrade from ordinary sword energy to the sword sect’s original sword energy is of great use to fellow sects who are in the realm of Qi training and foundation building.”
Lu Xuan said gently.
“Xiaodong Xuanjian Gourd?”
The foundation-building young man's spiritual sense penetrated the sword gourd and immediately noticed a wisp of pure sword energy that seemed to be able to penetrate all kinds of changes.
He was eighty-nine percent convinced immediately.
“Excuse me, uncle, how much does this sword gourd cost?”
“One hundred and twenty sword seals, no counter-offer.”
“Quantity is limited, first come, first served.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
He knew the value of this small cave black sword gourd to the disciples of the Sword Sect, so the price he offered was a little higher than that of ordinary fifth-grade spiritual species.
"One hundred and twenty sword seals...this is already at the forefront among the fourth-grade treasures..."
A trace of hesitation appeared on the young man's face, but he really liked this fourth-grade sword gourd so much that he gritted his teeth and said:
“Okay! Uncle Master, I want two!”
He wanted to buy more in his heart, but this was already his entire wealth.
Lu Xuan handed the two small Dongxuan sword gourds to the young man, scanned them casually, confirmed that the number of sword seals was correct, and put them into the storage bag.
“Uncle Master, can you stay with me for a while? I want to raise some sword seals and see if I can buy one or two more.”
The young man looked at the remaining five small Dongxuan sword gourds on the stall and asked Lu Xuan, with a trace of request in his eyes.
He had some treasures in his hands, but he also knew that they were nothing in the eyes of this alchemy uncle, so he pinned his hopes on raising sword seals.
“I’ll leave one for you, and I won’t care about the rest.”
“If you come over and still have some, you can buy as many as you want.”
Lu Xuan wanted to refuse, but when he saw the pleading in the young man's eyes, he couldn't bear it and said gently.
“Thank you, uncle! I’ll be back as soon as I go!”
The young man ran away quickly.
