I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

The two exchanged the treasures in their hands. After bidding farewell to Lu Xuan, whose status was quite special, Shi Jiuyin hurriedly left, not staying long near the Sword Sect.

“Nine Netherworld Yin Lotus, an Eighth Grade Spirit Seed, just requires a single Tortoise-Crane Primordial Pill.”

“It seems the old folks in the Cultivation World still have much potential left to be tapped.”

Lu Xuan, feeling the extremely Yin and cold aura emanating from the lotus seed in his hand, had a faint smile on his face.

“It’s just a pity that Eighth and Ninth Grade Spirit Seeds are exceedingly rare. To have gathered these few within such a short time is already quite fortunate.”

He thought with emotion in his heart.

As for the legendary Innate Spirit Roots or Path Fruit, it’s absolutely impossible to exchange them with a Seventh Grade Tortoise-Crane Primordial Pill.

“This time I have exchanged for high-grade Spirit Seeds, Spiritual Liquid, and other treasures. I have already consumed ten Tortoise-Crane Primordial Pills, and the stock on hand is running very low. The treasure exchange activities should take a pause for now.”

Lu Xuan thought secretly in his heart.

Tortoise-Crane Primordial Pill, after all, is a Seventh Grade Core Pill. Although I barely found a suitable reason, once I present too many in number, it would be too eye-catching, inevitably raising suspicion from external Nascent Soul cultivators and even my fellow sect members.

Moreover, Eighth and even Ninth Grade Spirit Seeds in the Cultivation World are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. He has scraped quite a bit from the Sword Sect and other Nascent Soul cultivators this time, making it much harder to acquire more.

“Most importantly, the Flowing Light Spirit Crane and Dragon Turtle cannot be exhausted too harshly.”

Lu Xuan smiled slightly.

The most crucial materials for refining the Tortoise-Crane Primordial Pill must be obtained from the Flowing Light Spirit Crane and Dragon Turtle. The Spirit Crane completely obeys my command, and the Dragon Turtle has also signed a contract with me. Yet, you cannot fish with exhaust; it must be sustainable development.

Although both are Seventh Grade Demon Beasts, possessing incredibly strong life force, if the life essence is collected from them too frequently, their essence will be greatly damaged. Even if using the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Seal, it’s difficult to fully restore them.

In the personal spatial space, the Dragon Turtle lying by the lake seems to have a sense of it. Its huge body couldn’t help but tremble, transforming into a black light that instantly submerged into the depths of the lake.

Soon, two and a half years passed.

After Lu Xuan deliberately lowered the presence of the Tortoise-Crane Primordial Pill, both within the Sword Sect and other sects in the Cultivation World, the cultivators who came to exchange or purchase elixirs rapidly declined. He also returned to his usual peaceful farming cultivation routine.

Within the cave abode.

The Grass Puppet remained faithfully carrying out its duties, walking between the furrows, its hollow eye sockets scanning the surroundings near the Spirit Field.

After absorbing that drop of Eighth Grade Taiyin Green Spirit Liquid, its Spiritual Intelligence was greatly enhanced, and its gestures became more flexible and free, vaguely revealing a sense of natural intent.

A thought from Lu Xuan, and clouds roiled above the Spirit Field, strands of Spirit Rain quietly intertwined with hundreds of Origin Spirit Ginseng plants.

“After planting for so many years, the Origin Spirit Ginseng is entering a rapid growth phase.”

“At this scale of planting, breaking through to the Late Nascent Soul Stage will be just around the corner.”

“It’s just that the further I go, the fewer cultivation level rewards there are in the light cluster. I still need to find better substitutes.”

The cultivation path is boundless. To go further and break through to Divinity Transformation or even higher realms, it is essential to find or improve high-grade spirit plants that bring abundant cultivation level rewards.

After carefully cultivating each Origin Spirit Ginseng, he came to the over thirty seedlings of the Sky Origin Fruit.

The seedlings were about three inches long, with green and slender leaves surrounded by thick white mist, continuously inhaling and exhaling, making the whole Spirit Field seem veiled with a layer of light white gauze.

Once the Sky Origin Fruit matures, one can obtain a finished Tortoise-Crane Primordial Pill, Pill Formula Experience Package, and the powerful ripening effect of the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk from the light cluster. Among the countless spirit plants he cultivated, although usual in rank, it holds an extraordinary status, allowing no slip-ups.

Finally, he arrived at the Sword Grass Spirit Field Area.

After successively acquiring the Infinite Freedom Sword Grass and Annihilation Absolute Sword Grass, the number of high-grade Sword Grass in the Spirit Field reduced significantly, with only the Frosted Soul Grass of Seventh Grade level and the Netherworld Blood Transformation Sword Grass, cultivated for a fellow sect senior brother, remaining.

Among them, the Frosted Soul Grass had already entered the mature stage, with the Sword Qi surrounding the Sword Grass becoming even sharper, and the piercing cold spreading everywhere, forming an ice crystal world in its vicinity. Entering it, even for Lu Xuan at the Mid Nascent Soul Stage Realm, his flesh body, divine soul, and even the Nascent Soul couldn’t help but shiver.

Another Netherworld Blood Transformation Sword Grass similarly entered a rapid growth phase, with countless minute Sword Qi moving, drawing out threads of blood-red lines, exuding a faintly bloody aura, full of intense killing intent.

“It’s a pity that the Heart Sword Lake’s central embryo of high-grade Sword Grass Spirit Seed grows too slowly. Otherwise, I could cultivate the entire Dongxuan Sword Sect’s high-grade Sword Grass.”

Lu Xuan smiled slightly. With his current reputation as the strongest logistics Spirit Plant Master throughout the generations in the Sword Sect, anyone obtaining high-grade Sword Grass would consider whether to invite him for cultivation.

Near the two Seventh Grade Sword Grasses, he also planted numerous Fifth Grade Sword Grasses of his own improvement, and even some Sixth Grade Life-taking Prison Suppressing Sword Grasses.

After tasting the benefits of improving high-grade Sword Grass, he never gave up on this path, conducting various experiments continuously.

Only, it’s been tough on the scabbard. It can’t even recall the last time a Great Treasure Sword entered its body.

After cultivating all the spirit plants within the cave abode, Lu Xuan instructed the White Ape to guard the cave abode well, then entered the Spirit Flower Space.

Compared to the initially created scene, the small world within the Spirit Flower had expanded countless times. With its dense Spiritual Energy, plus the Dragon Vein, Nine Heavens Thunder Summoning Tablet, and other high-grade treasure items specifically buried by Lu Xuan, it already had a Cave Heaven-like scenery.
