Chapter 256: Wood Infant
"This spiritual species indeed carries a bit of malevolence. I wonder, Senior Brother, how do you intend to exchange?" Lu Xuan's heart stirred, but his expression remained unchanged as he calmly asked the stout old man.
"How about directly exchanging it for the Cloud Mountain Jade Scripture in your hands?" The stout old man probed.
"Senior Brother, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
"Your blood orb spiritual species, whether in terms of grade or type, is unknown. Whereas the Cloud Mountain Jade Scripture in my possession is an extremely rare fourth-grade treasure. I'm sure Senior Brother understands its value. It's originally a top-tier defensive artifact against malevolent forces. Once inscribed with exorcism runes, it can inflict significant damage on malevolent entities. Exchanging it for a spiritual species with entirely unknown properties like yours might very well lead to a loss."
"Then what does Junior Brother suggest?"
"Add one thousand spirit stones for the blood orb spiritual species in exchange for the Cloud Mountain Jade Scripture."
Lu Xuan made a bold proposal.
"Absolutely impossible!"
A hint of annoyance appeared on the stout cultivator's face.
"Though the grade and type of this blood orb spiritual species are unknown, just by its appearance, one can discern its extraordinary nature. It's incomparable to ordinary third or fourth-grade spiritual species. Junior Brother actually dares to demand an additional one thousand spirit stones between fellow disciples, which seems a bit unfair."
"Sigh..."
Lu Xuan sighed.
"Senior Brother, I admit this blood orb spiritual species looks rather peculiar. Just by getting close, one can feel the agitation of its blood. However, as Senior Brother is aware, cultivating spiritual plants, especially high-grade ones, comes with various peculiar requirements. If these requirements aren't met, it may not only slow down their growth but also lead to withering and death. If I were to obtain the unusual spiritual species in Senior Brother's hands without knowing its cultivation method, I might end up losing it for nothing. I've always enjoyed collecting various spiritual species and attempting to cultivate all sorts of peculiar spiritual plants. That's why I'm willing to take the risk to exchange for Senior Brother's blood orb spiritual species."
Lu Xuan spoke with a despondent tone, portraying himself as a dedicated cultivator solely focused on spiritual plants.
He completely forgot that he could instantly grasp the condition of spiritual plants and had mastered various cultivation methods.
Seeing this, the stout old man, influenced by Lu Xuan's words and actions, softened his tone slightly.
"Junior Brother speaks the truth. Cultivating this unusual spiritual species indeed carries certain risks for you."
"How about this, let's compromise. Add five hundred spirit stones to the spiritual species, and you can exchange for the Cloud Mountain Jade Scripture in Junior Brother's hands. How does that sound?"
"Alright, I won't argue with Senior Brother."
Lu Xuan readily agreed.
"I wish Junior Brother success in cultivating this blood orb spiritual species."
Just as she was about to take back the Wood Infant and leave the stage, a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz entered her ears.
"Sister, I have a well-made Sword-Nurturing Gourd in my possession, along with a third-grade Explosive Flame Pearl. How about exchanging them for the Wood Elemental Heartbound Demon in your hands, along with that runic chain?"
The woman's eyes lit up.
The price offered by the cultivator behind the scenes was slightly lower than her expected price, but compared to the previous offers from cultivators, it was already quite good.
She had no use for this Heartbound Demon herself. After leaving the sect, she could sell it to demonic cultivators or consign it to organizations like the Thousand Treasures Tower, but that would be too troublesome.
The Sword-Nurturing Gourd had a considerable reputation within the sect. The gourd could nurture and evoke invisible sword energy, and its offensive power was comparable to a third-grade artifact. However, due to its high cultivation difficulty, it was quite rare.
Not to mention a well-made Sword-Nurturing Gourd.
Adding a third-grade Explosive Flame Pearl, which could unleash wide-ranging attacks, into the mix.
With these thoughts in mind, she looked towards the direction where the voice came from.
"Deal."
After she stepped down from the stage, Lu Xuan took the initiative to approach her.
He took out a mottled blue gourd and a crimson stone bead from his storage bag and handed them to the woman.
After a brief inspection, the woman nodded in satisfaction and handed the Wood Infant, along with the runic chain, to Lu Xuan.
"Junior Brother, this runic chain is just a small item I crafted casually to restrain this Wood Elemental Heartbound Demon. I'll teach you how to control it."
After finishing her sentence, the woman transmitted to Lu Xuan how to control the runic chain.
And finally, she couldn't help but remind him.
"If the runic chain isn't continuously refined by me, it can only maintain its effect for a period of time. Approximately three months later, I'm afraid it won't be able to restrain this evil infant anymore. Please remember this, Junior Brother."
"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Sister."
Lu Xuan replied.
