Chapter 1269: Chapter 1266: Mysterious Natural Essence

“How are you feeling now, elder?”

After repeatedly using the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Seal, half of Lu Xuan’s mana inside his body was exhausted.

He swallowed a Spirit Pill that could quickly restore mana and asked.

“Much relieved.”

“Your divine skill is indeed mysterious, little friend.”

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother said softly.

“The root of the severe injury has been removed, but it will still take some time to replenish vitality.”

“Elder, you mentioned before that there are several sect powers in Central Continent that intend to harm you?”

“Indeed, that’s true.”

“If these powers disturb you while you are recuperating, it would greatly hinder your swift recovery.”

“Why not let me join forces with you, elder, to help deal with those issues until you are completely healed?”

Lu Xuan spoke earnestly.

Since Lu Xuan intended to obtain Eight Grade level maturation spiritual objects from the Xuan Ji Tree Mother, he naturally had to show his sincerity by helping solve its current troubles.

“You wish to assist me in dealing with enemies, little friend?”

“You represent Dongxuan Sword Sect; if those sect powers in Central Continent discover this, it could lead to some unfavourable consequences.”

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother paused and said softly.

“Elder, there’s no need to worry about that. I will naturally keep my identity hidden and won’t draw too much attention.”

“If they do find out, it should be them who should be worried and afraid.”

Lu Xuan’s expression was calm, demonstrating composure and confidence.

“That is very good.”

“However, the ones coming are Nascent Soul cultivators, some even at mid or late Nascent Soul stage. Do you have confidence in handling them, little friend?”

Lu Xuan had always showcased his talent in cultivating spiritual plants and raising spirit beasts; he rarely had records of direct confrontation, so it’s understandable for the Xuan Ji Tree Mother to have such thoughts.

“Elder, you just mentioned I come from Dongxuan Sword Sect. Nascent Soul cultivators from Sword Sect, even in Cloud Void Domain’s strongest Liyang Taoist Sect, rarely have absolute confidence in defeating me.”

“Moreover, I am fortunate to have received the favour of the peak’s Sword Master; I do carry several protective treasure items.”

Lu Xuan smiled, and some Strange Treasures emitting treasure light appeared before him.

There was a Feather Fan woven from seven mystical plumes, each plume glowing with spiritual light, with strange fire erupting from the ends, containing intimidating power as if capable of incinerating all worldly things; this was the Five Fire Seven Birds Fan, already refined into Middle Rank Magical Treasure.

A magnificent Sun Chasing Bow glowing with gold light, with smooth lines and countless mystical perplexing runes engraved on the surface, giving an incredibly light feeling. This was the Eight Grade Magic Artifact Sun Chasing Bow, capable of chasing the stars, piercing all.

A Flying Sword Array; amidst the whistling Sword Qi, sun, moon, and stars could be faintly seen, filled with awe-inspiring Sword Intent, carrying devastating destructive power.

An odd bracelet condensed from Five-Colored Lightning, lightning rapidly swirling around, with fierce thunder energy spreading, creating a vacuum zone around the bracelet.

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother paused upon seeing these Strange Treasures.

“Two superior Eight Grade treasures, a renowned Seventh Grade Sword Sect Sword Array in the cultivation world, and a distinctive yet rare Seventh Grade Strange Treasure.”

“I didn’t expect you to have such a rich status, little friend.”

It expressed admiration.

“Elder exaggerates; it is just that I have had fortunate encounters and received substantial sect favour.”

Lu Xuan spoke modestly.

He brought out these treasures to demonstrate his strength and sincerity. However, to be cautious, he concealed a significant portion of his power, including the well-defended Ninth Grade Lotus Platform, the longest cultivated Divine Xiao Thunder Method, and the incomplete high-rank divine skill Universe Within Sleeve.

Thus, even if the Xuan Ji Tree Mother harbors any malicious intent upon seeing these treasures, he remains confident enough to handle the situation, retreat safely, or even defeat it.

“Given such profound foundation, you indeed can be of great help to me, little friend.”

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother nodded lightly and said gently.

Seeing these rare Strange Treasures, it immediately acknowledged Lu Xuan’s strength and considered joining efforts to resist the enemies.

“What request do you have, little friend?”

In this world, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Lu Xuan is willing to take risks to help deal with multiple Primordial Infant True Monarchs not solely because of their friendship; there is certainly a price to pay.

“To be honest, elder, I do have an unabashed request.”

Lu Xuan felt pleased seeing the Xuan Ji Tree Mother understanding him so well.

“Elder, you understand my passion for spiritual plants. I most favor the maturation moments of rare High Rank Spirit Plants, therefore, I have always sought to acquire more maturation spiritual objects.”

“May I inquire if the elder possesses any Eight Grade level maturation spiritual objects?”

He spoke calmly.

“Eight Grade maturation spiritual objects…? I recall giving you a piece of Wood Essence Tree Root; even that couldn’t meet your needs. Seems little friend is cultivating quite a number of High Rank Spirit Plants.”

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother chuckled lightly, making a guess.

“Fortunate enough to obtain a few.”

Lu Xuan responded vaguely, not good to admit owning several Ninth Grade Spirit Plants or even planting Innate Spirit Roots.

“I do have an Eight Grade maturation treasure.”

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother’s vague face emitted a green light, which transformed into a lively green spiritual energy filled with endless vitality, showcasing pure natural intent, reviving the surrounding huge trees and vines.

“This treasure is called Mysterious Natural Secret Qi, condensed through absorbing various Wood Spirit Aura and enduring numerous hardships. It strongly nourishes and matures all things, far superior to the Mixed Element Tree Liquid and Wood Elf Juice I previously provided.”

“However, its healing effectiveness is somewhat lacking, with minimal results.”

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother said, presenting the green spiritual energy to Lu Xuan.

“Worthy of being a millennia-old Wood-related monster, genuinely producing Eight Grade maturation spiritual objects.”

Lu Xuan felt delighted inwardly but maintained a composed exterior.

“Elder, this is…?”

He played dumb while knowing very well.

“Consider it the reward for healing me and assisting in combat, little friend.”

The Xuan Ji Tree Mother said slowly.

“Then I shall not decline.”

Lu Xuan expressed gratitude, extending several Ten Thousand Wood Spring Seals and promising assistance in combat for an Eight Grade treasure; the Xuan Ji Tree Mother was remarkably generous.

“Elder, you’ve resided in Green Wood Star Cave for many years, enduring numerous tribulations during your cultivation.”

“Though successfully overcoming them, one can never be sure of the future.”

“Do you have any thoughts of relocating elsewhere, elder?”

Lu Xuan asked earnestly, his tone filled with allure.

He knew the difference between a one-time feast and consistent abundance; if he could obtain the Eight Grade Mysterious Natural Secret Qi from the Xuan Ji Tree Mother, he would not settle for just this one, seeking more.

Thus, he couldn’t help but conceive the idea of enticing the Xuan Ji Tree Mother into his personal spatial domain.

“I’ve already enticed a Green Horn Thunder Son, adding the Xuan Ji Tree Mother wouldn’t hurt.”

He thought secretly.
