The Cloud Leopard approached the blue egg, taking a curious sniff at the scent inside it before walking away.

Lu Xuan gently stroked the light blue pattern on the eggshell and then formed a contract with it.

Once the contract was established, he felt a close link with the little Wind Sparrow inside the egg, although he had not seen it yet.

He slowly infused a strand of spiritual power into the blue eggshell, to which the little Wind Sparrow inside greedily absorbed it.

A thought arose in Lu Xuan’s mind.

[Wind Sparrow, Second Grade Demon Bird, known for speed, naturally masters low-level wind formulas.]

[It mainly feeds on demon beast meat, the effect is better if it contains wind spiritual power.]

[I want to fly higher, dance in the wind.]

“It is a pleasant surprise that it can control the low-level wind formula in its growth stages,” Lu Xuan thought delightedly.

His intention in purchasing it was to cultivate a commuting tool, so the speed was his first consideration. Not only did the Wind Sparrow perfectly meet his demands, but it was also able to control the wind formula independently, making Lu Xuan feel it was worth the deal.

He focused his intent on the large blue egg. From understanding its detailed status, he knew that it would take some time before the hatching of the Wind Sparrow inside.

Once again he infused traces of spiritual power into the egg shell, satisfying the growth needs of the young bird inside. Lu Xuan then placed the large egg in the corner of the room and went to the Spirit Field.

He took out the Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seed, which looked like a tiny sword, and found a vacant area; using the Earth Pulling Technique to create a small split in the spirit soil and placed the Gourd Spirit Seed into the split.

Concentrating his mind, a thought immediately flashed through his head.

[Sword Nurturing Gourd, Third Grade Spirit Plant, capable of nurturing Invisible Sword Qi within its body, has extreme power.]

[During the cultivation process, a Flying Sword Artifact needs to be placed nearby, so that the Gourd can absorb the Sword Intent from the flying sword while growing, thus nurturing even more powerful Sword Qi within.]

[I am expert at nurturing supreme Sword Qi! ]

“Alright, alright, I understand that you can nurture Sword Qi,” Lu Xuan replied casually, and took a while to find an old First Grade Flying Sword from his storage bag.

This First Grade Flying Sword must have been obtained when he was invited by the Wang Family to enter the Secret Land. It had been collecting dust in the storage bag thanks to its decrepit condition; it now was suitable to be used as fertilizer for the Sword Nurturing Gourd.

He threw the decrepit Flying Sword around the gourd seed, then returned inside his house.

After purchasing the Second Grade Wind Sparrow and the Third Grade Sword Nurturing Gourd, his sword imprint supply had suddenly plunged, losing more than half in an instant, leaving only thirty-two sword imprints.

“All the hard work of hundreds of days resulted in returning back to square one,” Lu Xuan sighed.

The sword imprints he had worked tirelessly to earn were spent like running water.

Over a hundred of sword imprints were gone within two purchases.

“I need to strive to earn more sword imprints and aspire to get a fourth-grade spiritual seed,” Lu Xuan set a small goal for himself, instantly, he was filled with motivation.

He planned to stick with the task of breeding Flood Dragon Demon Beasts for a while longer.

Although he only got ten sword imprints every month, as long as the Jiaolong, Python, and other species could break through and advance, he could get ten or even fifty sword imprints as a reward. Why not?

Besides, he had already laid the groundwork and based on the specific Demon Beast meat recipe, there were probably quite a few among the remaining Jiaolong Pythons that could break through quickly.

Some, like the two-headed Jiao Dragons that were in the likes of a strange species of Jiaolong and Chilong, may even break through to the third stage.

This was such a good opportunity to earn sword imprints, Lu Xuan did not want to let others avail of the benefits.

“I also need to find an opportunity to sell the mature spiritual plants I have at hand.”

Currently, he had accumulated quite a few mature Spiritual Plants. He had over a hundred stalks of ungraded Spontaneous Grass. If they were left growing, their life force would gradually decline, affecting their quality.

Additionally, there are first-grade Pure Snow Lotuses, second-grade Dark Marrow Mushrooms, several second-grade Qingmiao Spirit Tea leaves, and some miscellaneous items.

These all need to be sold as soon as possible, in exchange for spirit stones or rare spirit seeds.

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

Suddenly, a steady voice came from outside the courtyard.

“Junior brother, I am a fellow disciple who lives on the other side of this mountain peak. I have come to visit. Is it convenient?”

“A fellow disciple from the other side?”

Lu Xuan was puzzled, but quickly remembered that there was another cave dwelling on the other side of the mountain. He didn’t pay much attention to it as the cultivator who lived there wasn’t home when he first moved in.

The mountain peak is not too big but also not too small. It wouldn’t take a cultivator long to get to the dwelling.

Understanding this, he immediately responded.

“Honor us with your presence, dear senior brother. The humble house will shine with your arrival. Why would there be any inconveniences? Please wait a moment, I’ll come out right away.”

Lu Xuan quickly swept the items on the table into his storage bag and went outside the courtyard.

After opening the courtyard door, a determined-looking young cultivator stood not far from the entrance.

Upon seeing Lu Xuan, the young cultivator revealed a slight smile and greeted him with a fist salute.

“I am Xu Shao Ze. I live not far from your dwelling, junior brother. I came to bother you a bit and ask for a cup of tea.”

“I am Lu Xuan. Welcome, senior brother Xu. Please come in.”

Lu Xuan returned the salute and invited the determined young cultivator into the house. He brewed a pot of hot tea and served two plates of spiritual fruits.

“I have been in remote areas capturing demon envoys for nearly half a year. When I returned to the sect, I found that I have a new neighbour.”

“And so, I came to visit.”

After conversing for a while, Xu Shao Ze took the initiative to explain why he had not been in the sect for a long time.

“Catching demon envoys for half a year? Your strength and mentality, senior brother, far exceed those of ordinary people. I admire you.”

“Did you encounter any danger during this period?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan sincerely admired Xu Shao Ze. Dealing with demon envoys is even harder than dealing with demon beasts or fellow cultivators. The man in front of him had been battling demon envoys for half a year, hovering on the edge of life and death every day. This terrified Lu Xuan who had always been stable and sedentary.

“There were some dangers, but they were all part of the process of self-improvement, not much.”

Xu Shao Ze, with his determined look, lowered his head. Determination flickered in his eyes.

“I come from an ordinary background. Before joining the sect, I was just a loose cultivator. My aptitude is passable, but it’s not outstanding in the sect where many geniuses are gathered.”

“The only thing that is commendable is my ample experience in fighting. I have achieved my current status by not only combating demons, but also by fighting other cultivators and demon envoys.”

Xu Shao Ze said casually, but Lu Xuan could sense mountains of corpses and rivers of blood in his words.

Even though he wasn’t fond of adventure, he couldn’t help but hold Xu Shao Ze’s experience in high regard.

“Ironic isn’t it? Like you, senior brother, I’m also from a loose cultivator background, from a small market thousands of miles away.”

Lu Xuan laughed as he spoke.

“Well, it seems like we have a lot in common.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Shao Ze’s eyes filled with warmth.

“Hahaha, compared to senior brother, I am far off.”

“I don’t have the grand ambition like senior brother. I’m not interested in competing for opportunities. I just want to be a peaceful and ordinary Spirit Plant Master.”

“Different people have different aspirations. There’s no right or wrong, it’s simply a matter of choice.”

Xu Shao Ze stated in a deep voice..
