Chapter 346: Chapter 344: Soul Guiding Zen Fragrance, Resentful Spirit Mud l
An incense stick that produced a lotus platform and a Buddha figure in smoke, a chunk ofshape-shifting black mud, from which resentful spirits emerged from time to time, and a vibrant emerald green small sword.
During this period, he visited the Scripture Treasury Pavilion several times, browsed through various classic literature and materials, and found out the origins of the incense and black mud.
The incense was called Soul Guiding Zen Fragrance, a fourth-grade treasure, made by Buddhist cultivators by collecting incense burned by tens of thousands of believers. It could calm the mind and transform yin souls and resentful wills.
When ignited during cultivation, it could fend off heart demon attacks, maintaining an excellent state for cultivation.
The black mud was called Resentful Spirit Mud, a fifth rank spirit soil, mixed with a strong resentful aura. It could be used to cultivate certain yin-evil spirit plants and forge relevant magic artifacts.
Lu Xuan casually used one of the leftover Spiritual Firefly Grass Seeds to test it. After planting it in the Resentful Spirit Mud, the seed was quickly invaded by the resentful aura inside and became waste.

“What a fifth rank special spiritual soil, but it’s a pity I can’t use it now. There isn’t any spirit plant suitable for growing in Resentful Spirit Mud in the Underworld Court.”
Previously, he obtained a third-grade Wu Spirit Soil in Langyue Blessed Land. Lu Xuan laid it on the surface of his Cave Mansion Spirit Field, which had a promotive effect on most spirit plants.
This piece of Resentful Spirit Mud in front of him, even though its rank was two levels higher, was very limiting. It could only be used on a few special spirit plants.
Among the three treasures, only the emerald green small sword had an unknown origin. Lu Xuan was not in a hurry and inserted it into the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath for nurturing.
The emerald green small sword was not like the previous Purple Lightning Sword and the Wind-Thunder Sword. It didn’t electrocute or thunderstrike after being inserted but instead continuously nurtured the ancient scabbard. The fitting size of the sword blade made the usually disinclined-to-be-used- by-flying-swords scabbard instantly accept it.
In the room, the dark yellow incense stick quietly burned. The Buddha figure formed by the smoke was smiling while holding a flower, overflowing with Chan (Zen) spirit. A rich and aged fragrance lingered all around.
Lu Xuan sat quietly on a jade cushion, cultivating “The Great Five Elements” with the spiritual liquid in his Dantian whenever he had free time.
Suddenly, his spiritual sense detected some abnormality from the Flowing Light Formation at the foot of the mountain.
He opened his eyes, and a crack appeared along his palm lines, followed by a grey-white eye pupil crawling out from the crack.
Through the viewpoint projected by the Void Nightmare Eye, he saw a White Jade Monkey and an elegant White Luan Bird rushing towards the mid- mountain.
“So, it’s old friends.”
The two spirit beasts were the offspring of the guardian beasts of the Sky Sword Sect, White Jade Sky Monkey and Mysterious Sky Luan Bird.
Lu Xuan hadn’t seen these two reliable companions in their growth stage for three years, and he missed them somewhat. He opened the formation, and his figure floated out like a wisp of white smoke.
“Welcome, welcome, it’s been a long time, I’ve missed you so much.”
He arrived on the mountainside, enthusiastically greeting the two spirit beasts.
The White Luan Bird chirps once, seemingly chastising Lu Xuan for his long absence.
The small monkey, whose skin was as lustrous as jade, hid behind the Luan Bird. It peeked out with its little head showing, and a tuft of pure white hair on top of its head added a bit of uniqueness to it.
“I received a sect guarding mission, was out on a long trip, and only recently returned to the sect.”
Lu Xuan explained with a smile. Both spirit beasts possessed high spiritual intelligence, and there was no need to worry about them not understanding at all.
“I haven’t seen you for so long, have you missed my spirit fruits, spirit brew, and roasted demon beast meat?”
Lu Xuan playfully looked at the two spirit beasts, testing the waters with his question.
“Chirp, chirp!”
The Mysterious Sky White Luan excitedly called out, repeatedly bobbing its little head in agreement.
The delicate monkey from behind it wriggled out, with fire-red crystalline eyes blinking, gently nodded, then retreated back behind the Luan Bird’s feathers.
Since Lu Xuan’s departure, the two spirit beasts occasionally visited the peak where Lu Xuan resided. They missed the spirit fruit feasts that he frequently hosted.
In the sect, although the cultivator who fed them was dedicated and responsible, the spirit fruits had always been the same. Eating them for ten years as they had done, made the spirit fruits became tasteless, making it seem as if they were chewing wax.
Over at Lu Xuan’s place, the spirit fruits were of high quality and varied, the Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice was uniquely flavored, and all kinds of cooking methods were used to cook Demon Beast meat, along with their special desserts exclusive to them, which allowed the creatures to fully experience the joy of food.
They had even developed a certain dependency on Lu Xuan. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
“Come on, start with the Ice and Fire Dual-Heaven Spirit Fruit to whet your appetites.”
Lu Xuan swung his hand, and a large amount of Flaming Ice Fruit/Flaming Ice Pineapple floated out of his storage bag, forming a small pile of spirit fruit.
He then poured cups of Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice for the two Guardian Beasts and his own Spirit Beasts.
“Try some of the local specialty I brought from afar, Void Nether Spirit Fish dried with a special method.”
He took out an exquisite jade box, in which variously processed Void Nether Spirit Fish lied.
Some of the fish was smoked using an unknown kind of Spirit Wood, the fragrance was rich, making mouths water.
“Wait a moment, I’ll go roast some fresh ones.”
Some of the Void Nether Spirit Fish was frozen with hundred-year-old ice, the flesh was not affected at all, and it seemed as fresh as if he had just slaughtered it when he took it out.
Not too long after, he took out the freshly roasted Spirit Fish, divided them evenly into several parts, and laid them out in front of the Spirit Beasts.
The Spirit Fish was delicious to the extreme, containing abundant spiritual power. It was even more wonderful after being roasted by Lu Xuan with various seasonings.
The White Jade Sky Monkey and Mystical Sky White Luan, as well as his own Spirit Beasts, all devoured their meals and enjoyed them immensely.
“Try these Enchanted Immortal Peaches to cleanse your palate, although delicious, you should not eat too much of this fruit.”
Lu Xuan took out a few pale Enchanted Immortal Peaches, cut them into small slices, and offered them to the Luan Bird, Sky Monkey, and other Spirit Beasts.
The information he had previously learned from the Enchanted Immortal Peaches stated that consuming too many of these peaches could increase the eater’s charm, in addition to the miasma that could affect desires during growth.
Lu Xuan was afraid that if he took out too many Enchanted Immortal Peaches, it might cause these Spirit Beasts to explode their armor and feathers.
Thinking of a scene with all the beasts in chaos, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but shudder, driving away the image in his mind.
“That scene is too beautiful, I dare not think of it.”
He nervously looked at the many Spirit Beasts, fearing that things could get out of control.
Fortunately, there wasn’t that much of the fruit, and the Spirit Beasts felt only the deliciousness of the fruit and had no other thoughts.
After the Spirit Peaches were consumed and no abnormal situations occurred, Lu Xuan was completely reassured.
“Can the two venerable friends leave the Sect often?”
After they had eaten and drank to their heart’s content, Lu Xuan asked casually.
“We can leave, but the distance is limited, and we can’t stay away for too long.”
The Luan Bird chirped loudly, sending over a thought to Lu Xuan.
“I might need your help with something in a few years’ time, and I hope you will help me then.”
Lu Xuan spoke solemnly.
Having been treated to so many wonderful dishes by Lu Xuan, the two Spirit Beasts had already built a deep friendship with him. Seeing that Lu Xuan had something to ask, they all eagerly nodded in agreement.
The White Jade Sky Monkey seemed to sense that there would be a fight and a spark of vague excitement flashed in its shy eyes. It pointed to the hair at the back of its head, indicating that Lu Xuan could stimulate the hair it had gifted him when the time came.
A long time ago, the little monkey had given Lu Xuan a white hair, indicating that as long as it was within a certain range, he could activate that hair with his spiritual power and it would rush to him as fast as possible.
Seeing the two small things agree, Lu Xuan felt more confident about his plan to retaliate against the Cultivator behind the Holy Infant Fruit Plant.
