Chapter 241 - "Flame Art" from Beginner to Master

  "Junior Brother Lu, are you there?"

  Just as Lu Xuan was feeling the joy of a good harvest, a gentle voice came from outside the mountain talisman formation.

  "Senior Brother Shen, I'm here."

  Lu Xuan instantly recognized that the owner of the voice was Shen Ye, the head of the Sinong Hall and one of the senior members of the Sword Hall. He quickly opened the talisman formation and went out to greet him.

  At the foot of the mountain, a monk with a black sword case on his back, as gentle as jade, was smiling at him.

  "Junior Brother Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing recently?"

  "Thank you for your concern, everything is fine."

  Lu Xuan welcomed Shen Ye into the courtyard, took out the Fiery Flame Fruit, Jade Scale Fruit and other spiritual fruits, and poured a full cup of Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice.

  "Is this Fiery Flame Fruit cultivated by you, Junior Brother? It tastes much better than the ones I ate before. The quality should be good."

  Shen Ye closed his eyes and felt the changes of the Fiery Flame Fruit in his body, and praised it out loud.

  "Yes, I have nothing to do on weekdays, so I planted a few spiritual fruits and waited for them to mature to entertain guests."

  Lu Xuan said with a smile.

  "By the way, Junior Brother Lu, how are the ten sword grass spirit seeds that I got from the Sword Hall last time growing now?"

  Shen Ye suddenly asked.

  "All ten sword grass spirit seeds are alive. During the planting process, I tried to guide them to mutate, but I haven't seen the results yet."

  Lu Xuan said half-truthfully.

  Although he had successfully cultivated the third-grade mutated wind and thunder sword grass under the Yangxuan sword sheath, the future of the sword grass was still very uncertain, so he was not in a hurry to tell the whole story and concealed some of the details.

  "All alive? And trying to induce them to mutate?"

  Shen Ye, who was as gentle as jade, was surprised.

  Lu Xuan's attainments in the field of spiritual planting were beyond his expectations, and a certain idea in his heart became more firm.

  "When the sword grass matures, Junior Brother Lu, come to the sword hall again. I will definitely assign you some more important tasks then."

  "As for my coming here this time, I have something else to do."

  "When you were an outer sect disciple, you should have known that there were often courses for teaching and passing on skills in the sect, which were usually taught by inner sect disciples. If you were lucky, you could even meet a Jindan Zhenren."

  Lu Xuan nodded. When he was practicing in the outer sect, he often skipped classes and had not attended many classes properly, but he also heard Baili Jianqing talk about it often.

  Every once in a while, there would be inner sect disciples with profound cultivation to teach the key points of skills and cultivation experience, and there would also be many alchemy and weapon refining masters to teach refining experience, which were very popular among the Qi training disciples and were often overcrowded.

  However, perhaps because Lu Xuan had always lived in seclusion, or perhaps because the spiritual plant was really unpopular, he rarely heard of a foundation-building spiritual plant master coming to teach how to cultivate spiritual plants.

  If there was, he would at least not skip classes.

  "It's like this. The three people who usually teach spiritual plant experience in Sinong Hall happened to be injured, one went out to look for opportunities, and the other was in seclusion to break through the middle stage of foundation building."

  "Therefore, I thought of you, Junior Brother Lu, at the first time."

  "Although Junior Brother Lu has just been promoted to an inner disciple not long ago, his attainments in spiritual plants and spiritual beasts are unquestionable. Therefore, I want to invite you to the Transmission Hall to teach the outer disciples about relevant experience."

  Shen Ye's cultivation is in the late stage of foundation building, and he is in a high position. Naturally, he has heard of Lu Xuan's glorious experience in solving the obsessions of Yin-Yang Kun Fish and Qingxuan Deer.

  Even though Lu Xuan is young and has been promoted for a short time, the first person he thought of was Lu Xuan.

  "Senior Brother Shen, I am just a wild monk. I have been planting blindly all the time. I am still in the stage of exploration. How can I be qualified to teach others?"

  Lu Xuan didn't like this kind of exposure, so he declined.

  "Two hundred sword seals."

  "One day."

  Shen Ye said with a smile.

  "However, I have gained some valuable experience in the process of exploration, and I can exchange it with the outer disciples."   

  "It doesn't matter whether it's a sword seal or not. The main thing is to learn from each other."

  Lu Xuan looked normal, and his tone changed very naturally.

  He wanted to refuse directly, but Shen Ye gave too much.

  Two hundred sword seals are almost equivalent to a fourth-grade spirit seed, and it only takes him one day.

  "Then I'll have to trouble you, Junior Brother Lu. Here are two hundred sword seals."

  With a clattering sound, two hundred small sword-like coins fell on Lu Xuan's desk.

  "Three days later, please arrive at the Transmission Hall on time. There will be outer disciples who are interested in spirit plants waiting for you to arrive."

  Shen Ye explained the details to Lu Xuan, and said goodbye without staying for long.

  ...

  The day before the lecture, Lu Xuan sat quietly at the table, writing and drawing on paper.

  In the past two days, he reviewed his planting experience and summarized many cultivation tips.

  Even if the outer disciples who came to listen to the lecture could not understand the current state of the spirit plants, they could benefit a lot from the spirit plants with the content he taught.

  He made a simple outline and filled in some details before walking out of the courtyard to check the growth of the spiritual plants.

  "Five more flaming fruits are ripe!"

  Coming to the bottom of the flaming fruit spiritual plant, Lu Xuan looked at the heavy hanging flame spiritual fruits and raised his mouth.

  He carefully picked the five flaming fruits one by one and put them in a special container to preserve their vitality and spirituality.

  After placing the spiritual fruits, he turned his attention to the five white light balls that appeared.

  Reaching out and gently touching the surface of the light balls, the five light balls flowed into his body one after another.

  Along with them appeared the light ball reward.

  [Harvest a second-grade flaming fruit and obtain the third-grade treasure Exploding Flame Pearl. ]

  [Harvest a second-grade flaming fruit and obtain the third-grade elixir Fenyuan Pill. ]

  ...

  When it came to the third white light ball, the reward finally changed.

  [Harvest a second-grade flaming fruit and obtain the third-grade magic "Flame Art" (Part 1). ]

  A lot of information emerged in his mind.

  ["Flame Art" (Part 1), a third-grade magic, can enable cultivators to better control fire magic and freely transform into various forms. ]

  Lu Xuan digested the information that appeared in his mind, and instantly had a rough understanding of how to perform this magic.

  The route of spiritual power, the way to stimulate it, the changes in the form of flames controlled by spiritual consciousness...

  He calmed down, cleared his mind, and continued to reach out to touch the remaining two white light balls.

  [Harvest a second-grade flaming fruit and obtain "Flame Art" (Part 1)]*2

  The two light balls contain experience packs of the upper part of the third-grade magic "Flame Art".

  Continuously absorbing three magic experience packs allowed Lu Xuan to understand "Flame Art" to an extremely thorough level in a short period of time.

  It was as if he had practiced and released this magic hundreds of times.

  "Flame Art: From entry to mastery."

  "It only takes a moment to reach this level. Any magic genius is no more than this."

  Lu Xuan sighed secretly.

  The genius of cultivation uses the talent cheat, and he uses the light ball cheat. They are all cheats, and there is no difference.
