Chapter 106: Cultivating Yin Locust saplings
After retrieving techniques from the Scripture Pavilion, Lu Xuan returned directly to his cave dwelling.
He took out two flowing lightwood spirit seeds and two young Yin Locust saplings and arrived at the Spirit Field.
Finding an empty area, he executed the Earth Attraction Technique, causing subtle changes in the spiritual soil structure. He placed the two palm-sized oval-shaped spirit seeds into ...

Lu Xuan left the Agriculture Hall, surveying the surroundings before approaching a group of spirit cranes.
These cranes, elegant and graceful in stature, soared occasionally at incredible speeds. They were specifically bred by the Sky Sword Sect to transport outer disciples, requiring only a spirit stone and the destination's address to swiftly ferry cultivators, making travel incredibly co...

The Sino-Nong Hall was situated on a vast, open plain, occupying quite a large area.
Lu Xuan stepped into the central hall, which was relatively quiet, with just over ten cultivators of high Qi refinement levels present.
Glancing around, Lu Xuan made his way to a mahogany counter not far from him.
Behind the counter, a junior disciple of the Sky Sword Sect was engrossed in a ...

However, the third-grade Illusory Smoke Fruit and Dragonvine, whe...
