Chapter 357: Wind and Thunder Sword Talisman, "Wind and Thunder Sword Technique"

Inner sect.

Lu Xuan passed through various formations and restrictions, returning to his own cave mansion.

After exchanging for the fourth-grade Celestial Azure Dan Fire and the fifth-grade Diamond Bodhi seed at Sword Gate Town, he didn't linger and hurried back to Sky Sword Sect.

Opening the flowing light array, he directly arrived at the spiritual field.

Spiritual power surged, causing subtle changes in the structure of the spiritual soil.

Lu Xuan took out the Diamond Bodhi seed and placed it in a suitable crack.

Then, he took a deep breath, his mind focusing on the deep black elliptical spiritual seed.

A thought flashed through his mind.

[The Diamond Bodhi, a fifth-grade spiritual plant, condensed from the blessings of the Buddhist realm, can be nurtured and nourished by incense, prayers, and chanting to accelerate its growth.]

[When mature, the spiritual fruit contains immense Buddha power. Consuming it can greatly enhance the physical body, strengthen the blood and qi, easily repel evil, and accelerate the cultivation speed of corresponding techniques and abilities.]

"A fifth-grade spiritual plant!"

As the thought vanished, a hint of joy appeared on Lu Xuan's face.

"Unfortunately, the cultivation method is somewhat special and requires certain Buddhist treasures."

"I wonder if the Soul Crossing Incense can be effective."

Lu Xuan sighed inwardly.

The Soul Crossing Incense is refined by Buddhist practitioners from thousands of incenses, capable of calming the mind and dispelling resentment and grievances.

With this in mind, he took out the dark yellow incense that had been kept in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

The incense smoke curled up, forming a lotus platform above it. On the platform, there seemed to be a smiling Buddha holding a flower.

He controlled a wisp of smoke with his spiritual awareness, infiltrating it into the Diamond Bodhi seed.

After absorbing the smoke, the fierce-looking Vajra on the surface of the spiritual seed seemed to become more vivid, appearing even more majestic.

"It has some effect, but it seems not very significant."

Lu Xuan carefully felt the state of the spiritual seed and thought to himself.

Perhaps because the smoke is not purely incense, although it can be used to cultivate the Diamond Bodhi, it can only be used in the early stages.

"As for the chanting, I don't know if there's a chance to let the Illusionary Sound Bamboo listen and memorize it, and then play it for the Diamond Bodhi. Although it's a bit makeshift, it might still have some effect."

Adhering to the principle of thrift, a whimsical thought emerged in Lu Xuan's mind as he thought of the four-grade Illusionary Sound Bamboo in the spiritual field.

Returning to the courtyard, he took out some spiritual fruit and monster meat, feeding them to several spiritual beasts that had come over attracted by the smell.

Lu Xuan entered the house and took out the Celestial Azure Dan Fire.

The refining of Foundation Establishment Pills is still in the preparation stage, so he is not in a hurry for now.

For the next period of time, he will stay in the cave mansion, cultivating spiritual plants and raising spiritual beasts with peace of mind.

Under his careful care, spiritual plants in the spiritual field matured one after another.

"A Wind and Thunder Sword Grass has matured."

Lu Xuan looked at the progress bar completely filled under the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass in front of him and sighed.

The sword grass was dark green, with countless lightning patterns on its surface, surrounded by numerous fine black sword energies, as if emitting a terrifying hurricane of sword cries.

[Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, a third-grade spiritual plant, cultivated with Wind and Thunder Sword Qi, contains powerful wind and thunder energy.]

With a thought, his gaze fell on the white light cluster that appeared alongside.

Extending his hand to touch it gently, the light cluster turned into countless tiny sword energy dots, surging into Lu Xuan's body all at once and instantly merging into him.

[Harvested one Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, obtained a fourth-grade talisman, Wind and Thunder Sword Talisman.]

A talisman shaped like a sword tip, neither gold nor jade, appeared in his palm.

Inside the talisman, fierce winds swept and thunder roared, depicting a scene of the end of the world.

[Wind and Thunder Sword Talisman, a fourth-grade talisman, containing powerful wind and thunder energy. It can instantly unleash endless Wind and Thunder Sword Qi. When fully activated, it can severely injure or even kill most late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.]

"Another fourth-grade talisman. I didn't expect that Wind and Thunder Sword Grass could also produce talismanic treasures."

Lu Xuan examined the talisman in his hand, a hint of surprise in his expression.

The previous fourth-grade Howling Sea Sword Talisman, Grand Sun Sword Talisman, and Falling Star Sword Talisman were all obtained from the sword embryo gourd's light clusters. While there had been manifestations of sword intent, flying swords, and sword orbs in the sword grass, this was the first time he had obtained a talisman from it.

However, he was extremely satisfied with this.

The fourth-grade talismans are extremely powerful. Their strength has been proven in the Boundless Sea secret realm. Currently, he only has one Howling Sea Sword Talisman and one Grand Sun Sword Talisman left. Being able to obtain another Wind and Thunder Sword Talisman is quite good.

He put away the talisman and continued to inspect the spiritual field.

At that time, he obtained twenty ordinary sword grass spiritual seeds from the Sword Hall, one third-grade Starlight Sword Grass spiritual seed, and one fourth-grade Thousand Owls Sword Grass spiritual seed.

Ten ordinary sword grasses were nurtured and cultivated by him using the Four Seasons Sword Art, while the other ten were placed in the sword sheath and nourished with Xunlei Sword Qi, steadily and slowly transforming into Wind and Thunder Sword Grass spiritual seeds.

Since only one sword grass seed could be improved at a time, the growth rates of the ten Wind and Thunder Sword Grasses varied.

Lu Xuan planned to mature one or two more before going to report at the Sword Hall.

More than a month later, Lu Xuan stood in front of a Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, his hand turned into a crystal-clear jade color, directly grabbing the grass below and carefully pulling it out.

"A naturally born sword."

Despite having harvested one or two dozen sword grasses of various kinds, Lu Xuan still marveled at the innate perfection of the sword grasses, natural sword forms.

This grass in his hand might have better quality due to the better spiritual seed or Lu Xuan's more careful cultivation, resulting in its excellent quality.

[Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, a third-grade spiritual plant...]

With a thought, Lu Xuan picked up the white light cluster left by the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass in the pit.

[Harvested one Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, obtained the fourth-grade sword technique, "Wind and Thunder Sword Technique."]

A thought flashed through his mind, and then countless pieces of information rushed into his sea of consciousness.

After absorbing and digesting them all, Lu Xuan seemed to have some enlightenment. Wind and thunder sword energy crisscrossed in his sea of consciousness, and various exquisite and unparalleled sword techniques were like horns on a gazelle, easily accessible, each

 with its own mysterious profundity.

[Wind and Thunder Sword Technique, a fourth-grade sword technique, created by comprehending the wind and thunder energy contained within the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass. Once practiced to completion, it can unleash endless Wind and Thunder Sword Qi, creating a terrifying storm of sword energy that can be both offensive and defensive.]

Lu Xuan thought about it, put away the light cluster, and muttered to himself, "The other Wind and Thunder Sword Grasses have matured a bit, but it seems that they're not enough to reach the fourth-grade standard. Let's wait for the next batch."

Then, he threw the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass into the Void Ring, turned around, and walked out of the spiritual field.

His figure flickered, disappearing from the cave mansion in an instant, and then appeared in the Sword Hall.

The Sky Sword Sect's Sword Hall was located in a secluded valley, built on a cliff, with clouds and mist swirling around it.

Stepping into the Sword Hall, Lu Xuan's gaze swept around and found that the familiar elder who had given him the Hundred Blades was not present. Instead, there were several unfamiliar elders sitting in the Sword Hall.

One of them, with white hair and a plain robe, looked like a kind and gentle old man.

Seeing Lu Xuan coming, the old man smiled and said, "Junior Brother Lu, you're here. Your identity token and introductory jade slip have been prepared. This is your identity token. From now on, you're a member of our Sword Hall. Please take good care of it."

As he spoke, the elder handed Lu Xuan a green jade token.

Lu Xuan reached out and took it, bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

After obtaining the identity token, he said nothing more, turned around, and left the Sword Hall.
