For Lu Xuan, body training is just an after-dinner snack, and farming is the main course.
In the next period of time, in addition to raising dragons and giant pythons and taking care of the burning wood every day, he spent the rest of the time in the yard, carefully cultivating spiritual plants and raising spiritual beasts.
After picking all the last batch of spiritual fireflies, he planted 150 of the remaining two hundred spiritual seeds in the empty spiritual field area to improve his cultivation and condense the spiritual seeds.
The remaining fifty were planted in a cave to keep company with the locust tree.
Then, a channel was dug between the ancient well and the cave to introduce cold spring water into the cave to further improve the aura environment in the cave.
After planting the Sophora japonica, the space in the cave was limited, so planting fifty Firefly plants already seemed a bit crowded.
For these fireflies, Lu Xuan planned to change their growth environment to see if he could slowly affect the characteristics of the fireflies after they mature.
Inside the cave, after the cold spring water from the ancient well was introduced, the only thing that can be called a special environment is this cave.
To influence the traits of spiritual plants through the environment requires long-term effects, which is difficult to achieve artificially.
Lu Xuan can only hope that after he breaks through to the foundation building, he will have greater choices. At that time, he must choose a mountain with a complex spiritual environment, which can be used to cultivate various spiritual plants and facilitate the spiritual plants to produce mutations.
After inspecting the spiritual field, Lu Xuan came to the ancient well with obscure lines and took out fifty firefly grass spiritual seeds placed in the cold spring water.
[Exotic spiritual plants are stimulated by ice-cold spiritual power during the spiritual planting period. After maturity, the plant contains slight ice-based spiritual power. 】
The two hundred firefly seeds that were planted quickly took root and sprouted, and a small green and slender leaf grew out, which was really gratifying.
In the end, fourteen of the fireflies' spiritual seeds failed to be induced, and the quality of the planted fireflies was not as good as before when mature. What's more, they were unable to take root and germinate, and became useless seeds.
The remaining thirty-one remained unchanged.
Lu Xuan had long been prepared for the structure of the seed to be damaged after being stimulated, and continued to plant another Spirit Seed of Firefly Grass with an expressionless face.
[Lingyingcao, no grade...]
The fairy peach and flame fruit spirit seeds planted earlier also sprouted respectively.
After they were planted in the spiritual fields, the fifty spiritual seeds were sorted into three categories.
The hidden-winged cicada, black beetle, and silver-threaded mantis have all been domesticated by Lu Xuan, so they get along quite peacefully, and they grow together with the black insect vine.
[Lingying grass is a non-grade spiritual plant. When mature, it can be used as a refining material for several healing elixirs. 】
Lu Xuan's mind was focused on the spiritual seeds in the spiritual soil, and suddenly, an idea emerged from his mind.
He took a deep breath, cast a purifying spell on himself, and instantly entered the sage mode, without desires or desires.
In the spirit field, other spiritual plants are growing in very good condition. Under Lu Xuan's careful cultivation, they are working hard to grow in order to bring him the light group reward as soon as possible.
The spiritual seeds have been induced under icy conditions for a period of time, and it is time to test the results.
[Lingyingcao, no grade...]
In this way, although the initial cost is higher, a large number of mutant spiritual plants can be collected in a short period of time, which facilitates later experiments and greatly shortens the time for improving spiritual plant varieties.
At the Mysterious Insect Vine, the black beetles that had been in the egg state finally hatched out one after another. More than a dozen jet-black insect chambers were densely packed on the Mysterious Insect Vine, clearly distinguishable from the insect chambers established by the other two kinds of monster insects.
One spiritual seed after another was planted, and Lu Xuan judged the changes after each spiritual seed was induced by mastering its status.
Lu Xuan stared for a while, and strange thoughts emerged in his mind.
"The number of three kinds of demonic insects exceeds twenty, which is enough for the early growth of the Black Insect Vine. If there are more, the balance established between them will be lost.
When other spiritual planters improve spiritual plant varieties, they need to plant all the induced spiritual seeds. Only after they can grow to a certain stage can they select the spiritual plants that have successfully mutated.
Lu Xuan took the spiritual seeds and came to an empty spiritual field area.
"Although the alchemy fire has been controlled to the lowest level, it is still more destructive and irritating than the spring water in the ancient well, so more damaged or even useless spiritual seeds are obtained."
Lu Xuan looked at the strange-shaped mysterious insect vine and sighed.
Lu Xuan put these spiritual seeds into categories, entered the house, and took out the remaining fifty spiritual seeds that had been placed in the alchemy furnace and roasted carefully over a slow fire.
Among the remaining spirit seeds, twenty-three spirit seeds were in a negative state and the induction failed.
He had already learned from Uncle He that improving spiritual plant varieties required long-term experiments and could not be achieved overnight. Therefore, he had long been prepared for a long-term battle.
And he, as long as he buries the spiritual seeds in the spiritual soil, he can judge the changes after the spiritual seeds are induced and directly select the mutant spiritual plants.
[Because the spirit seeds are in a damaged state, the cultivated spirit grass may not enter the maturity stage normally, and the quality will be greatly affected. 】
When it grows to a certain stage, we will find several good demonic insects and live in symbiosis with the black insect vine."
Lu Xuan analyzed deep in his heart.
Five spiritual seeds were successfully induced and became mutant spiritual plants. The cultivated fireflies had slight ice spiritual power.
The environment in the alchemy furnace seemed to be more inducing. Among the fifty spiritual seeds, only twenty remained unchanged.
He continued to plant the third spiritual seed.
He discovered one of his major advantages in improving spiritual plant varieties.
Three small pink-white peach branches trembled gently in the breeze, and the little pink leaves that grew out swayed. At a glance, there was a sense of charm.
"It was a bad start, but that's to be expected."
Fortunately, seven spiritual seeds have successfully mutated, and when mature, they possess slight fire spiritual power.
Failed spiritual seeds can be directly discarded and eliminated. The remaining spiritual seeds that remain in their original state can be induced repeatedly until success or failure.
The shape of the dry and slender spirit species in the hand has not changed much. After being nourished by the spring water for a long time, it just looks slightly plumper than before. When holding it in the hand, it has a faint cold feeling.
"No changes, normal spiritual species."
Thoughts emerged in Lu Xuan's mind.
"Xuezi, I want milky white Xuezi..."
He used the Earth Drawing Technique, and the structure of the spiritual soil in front of him changed slightly, and a narrow crack appeared, incorporating the spiritual seeds of the Firefly Grass.
"Finally, I successfully induced a spiritual seed! The alien firefly grass contains ice spiritual power. Although it has not been upgraded to a higher level, it is still a good start."
A magical firefly spirit seed appeared, and Lu Xuan was very happy.
"In the next period of time, what I have to do is to induce the remaining ordinary spiritual seeds again, and then cultivate the mutant spiritual plants, and obtain a large number of mutant spiritual seeds through the method of spiritual seed condensation."
"Inducing again, coagulating seeds again, if this virtuous cycle continues, we will definitely be able to improve the spirit seeds of firefly grass."
