Chapter 451: Chapter 449: You know nothing about the power of Light Cluster_1
After providing the Ecstasy Heart Sutra obtained from the Enchanted Immortal Peach light cluster, Lu Xuan noticed that he saw the Old Dragon Turtle less frequently.
Recently, the Old Dragon Turtle, despite its robust body as a Tier 6 Spirit Beast, seemed slightly listless.
According to it, it had been pondering over a cultivation technique lately, burning the midnight oil, which drained a lot of its Mental Energy, leading to such a situation.
Lu Xuan could only choose to believe and casually reminded the Old Dragon Turtle to take care of its health and not push too hard.
“It spends every day studying the Bliss Sutra. Could it possibly derive a Yin-Yang dual cultivation technique from it?”
Lu Xuan thought to himself on his way back.
Thinking about the solitary Old Dragon Turtle figuring out the principles of Yin-Yang dual cultivation always made Lu Xuan smile.
Giving the fourth-grade Ecstasy Heart Sutra to the Old Dragon Turtle didn’t upset him too much.
After all, the Enchanted Immortal Peaches would mature their second batch soon, and then he would unlock the rewards from the light clusters.
Lu Xuan thought to himself while stepping on the dense cloud cluster, moving towards his Cloud House.
“Greetings, Brother Lu.”
A voice resounded and, following the source, one young Foundation Establishment First-term Stage Cultivator greeted Lu Xuan, his hands full of Spirit Fruits.
“Junior brother, are these Spirit Fruits for feeding the Blessed Land’s Spirit Beasts?”
“Yes, Brother Lu.”
The cultivator responded immediately.
Lu Xuan nodded and passed by the cultivator.
Having been at Ten Thousand Beast Cave for a while, Lu Xuan had started to understand the methods to care for Spirit Beasts used by Sun Yun and the others.
Inside the Blessed Land, the Spiritual Energy was pure and dense, and the Spirit Beasts just needed to absorb it to grow. Occasionally, treasures like Emperor’s Flow would descend from the sky to strengthen the Spirit Beasts’ bodies.
Staying in the Blessed Land was a privilege for Sky Sword Sect members. Cloud Houses were constructed specifically for better absorption and refinement of Emperor’s Flow.
Moreover, Sun Yun and the others would periodically supply some Spirit Beasts with Spirit Fruits or Demon Beast Meat.
Lu Xuan paid close attention and noticed that the Spirit Fruits were mostly of low-rank, average quality, and certainly didn’t have various combinations like his own.
As for the Demon Beast Meat, it was all raw, without any treatment, not to mention different cooking methods like boiling, frying, steaming, or grilling.
“No wonder the White Ape and Luan Bird love to feast at my cave dwelling. They must be tired of eating this stuff all the time.”
Lu Xuan immediately understood why the two Spirit Beasts were behaving the way they were.
However, although he had some concerns about the feeding methods, he didn’t comment or interfere as these were their established habits.
On top of a huge mountain.
The Elder Ape was sitting cross-legged on a flat stone platform. The clouds were churning in the distance, and he enjoyed his Spiritual Tea calmly with small sips, presenting a picture of serene contentment and timeless tranquility.
“Little friend Lu, you have drunk a lot of my Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice these past few days. Let’s try my special Monkey Wine today.”
The Elder Ape poured Lu Xuan a cup of golden spirit brew.
The Spirit Brew swayed lightly in the cup, captivating Lu Xuan and making him feel as if he were about to sink into it forever.
He composed his Spiritual Sense and took a small sip.
The moment the Monkey Wine entered his stomach, Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense spread out involuntarily.
His entire body, the meridians, flesh, and organs all experienced a warm sensation.
“Senior, your Monkey Wine is truly extraordinary. Even on my second tasting, I’m finding it hard to adapt.”
Lu Xuan said with a slightly inebriated look on his face.
“The first time you drink it, the marrow cleansing effect is strongest. The more times you consume it, the weaker the body refinement effect becomes. You need to consume it over a long period to slightly improve.”
Upon hearing Lu Xuan praise his Monkey Wine, a smug expression appeared on Elder Ape’s face.
“It can indeed be considered a top-grade spirit brew.”
“However, I’m a bit curious. I remember when I was still a Loose Cultivator, I heard of Monkey Wine in the market where I lived at the time. Why is there such a vast difference compared to the wine crafted by elder?”
Lu Xuan asked curiously.
“It’s just the same name, the other ingredients are the real determinant of the spirit brew’s quality.”
“The two most important things are the spirit fruit used to brew the spiritual wine and the brewing secret technique.”
“Of these, the secret technique is particularly crucial.”
Elder Ape patiently explained to Lu Xuan, not having the ravaging fierceness described in previous information.
“I remember you’re a Spirit Plant Master? The spirit fruits you cultivate seem to be of extraordinary quality.”
Speaking of spirit fruits, Elder Ape thought of Lu Xuan’s identity sitting in front of him.
To make his own child and the Little Luan Bird constantly think about him showed the high quality of the spirit plants cultivated by Lu Xuan.
“Indeed, I have some achievements in cultivating spiritual plants. I rarely fail in cultivating spirit plants, and the average quality of the ones I cultivate is a bit higher than those cultivated by average spirit plant masters.”
Lu Xuan humbly replied.
“In the Sect, my reputation in the aspect of spirit plants isn’t bad. The Dan Palace commissioned me to cultivate several batches of spiritual medicines for refining elixirs.”
“Even a Golden Pellet Elder Uncle requested me to help him cultivate a fifth-rank spirit plant.”
“A Golden Core Real Person asked you to cultivate spirit plants? And it’s even a high-grade spirit plant of the fifth rank?”
A sense of surprise flashed in the uniformly peaceful and calm eyes of Elder Ape.
“Yes, it was True Man Qingxu.”
Lu Xuan confirmed.
Seeing Elder Ape’s reaction, he was somewhat gleeful inside.
He took the initiative to discuss the difference between his Monkey Wine and the one in the market, allowing the Elder Ape to connect it with his identity as a Spirit Plant Master and therefore reveal his expertise in spirit plants.
The aim was naturally for Elder Ape’s spirit fruits used in brewing Monkey Wine, and possibly for the secret formula of Monkey Wine he could get from the light cluster.
As expected, upon hearing that True Man Qingxu within the sect had commissioned Lu Xuan to cultivate a fifth-rank spirit plant, this Sixth-Grade White Jade Skyholding Ape was obviously moved.
Spirit fruits and the secret formula were key to its brewing of this Monkey Wine. As for being a spirit beast, the difficulty of cultivating a spirit fruit was indeed too high.
It required constant care and consumed lots of time and energy, even fighting with the Old Dragon Turtle in the blessed land was much easier than cultivating spirit plants.
Upon learning about Lu Xuan’s achievements in spirit plants, it couldn’t help but think of asking him to cultivate the spirit fruit for it.
“Little friend Lu, I wonder if you would be willing to cultivate the spirit fruit used for brewing Monkey Wine for me?”
Elder Ape asked Lu Xuan tentatively.
“It would be my pleasure to serve Elder.”
“However, as the spirit fruit is related to such a rare and precious spiritual wine, wouldn’t there be a risk of leakage if you entrusted it to me?”
“Hahaha, you’re overthinking this. The most critical aspect of Monkey Wine is the secret formula. As long as I keep the formula firmly in my grasp, no one will know its brewing method.”
Upon hearing this, Elder Ape laughed loudly, his laughter causing the sea of clouds below to stir tumultuously.
“Really? I must have been overthinking.”
Lu Xuan said, bowing his head.
“You old fellow, you have no idea about the power of the light cluster…”
He thought to himself.
