I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 375: Chapter 373: I’m Here to Assist You_i

In the following days, Lu Xuan stayed in his cave dwelling. Apart from cultivating Spirit Plant and Spirit Beast as usual, he spent the rest of his time studying the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood.

By feeding it with different Spiritual Energy, Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood, and conducting other small experiments, he could observe and summarize the characteristics of the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood, achieving a more thorough understanding of it.

When he felt it was time, he visited the cave dwelling of Ge Pu.

“Brother Ge, I have carefully observed this strange spiritual plant these few days and have finally made some progress.”

Tve looked through some Spirit Plant Scriptures, and according to the characteristics of this spiritual plant, it seemed to have originated from a third-grade Dragon Patterned Wood.”

On the Black and White Mountain, a pair of enormous whale-like creatures swam freely, with their necks and tails intertwined, embodying the unity of Yin and Yang.

Lu Xuan asked, looking at Ge Pu with black and white eyes.

“Dragon Patterned Wood, I’ve heard of it, but it seems quite different from the spiritual plant in front of us, doesn’t it?”

Ge Pu looked at the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood, which had become well-behaved after being handled numerous times by Lu Xuan, expressing his confusion.

“Brother, look here.”

Lu Xuan twisted the spiritual plant, like turning a screw.

These patterns faintly resemble a Flood Dragon. However, due to generations of mutations, they have become much thinner compared to the ordinary Dragon Patterned Wood, and the shape has also changed significantly.” He straightened the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood, pointed at the faint patterns on the trunk and leaves, and said.

“So, you’re saying that all the spiritual plants in that blessed land are mutated? What could possibly affect all the spiritual plants in the entire blessed place?” “Perhaps it has something to do with a certain type of flesh and blood scent, but I’m not entirely sure.”

Lu Xuan cautiously said.

Flesh and blood scent… Maybe it could provide some reference for our fellow sect members in the blessed land.”

Ge Pu pondered.

“You’ve worked hard, Junior Brother Lu. I really admire you for being able to gather so much information in less than ten days.”

He made a bowing gesture towards Lu Xuan.

“It’s my honor to be able to provide a bit of insignificant help to the core formation elder and fellow sect members of our blessed land.”

Lu Xuan kept quiet about the usage of the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood. Although some evidence could potentially be found about its origin and reasons for mutation, it would be difficult to explain if anyone found out about its usage.

He gave the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood back to Ge Pu and left.

He returned to his cave dwelling and in the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

Lu Xuan stood under a vine, gently touching a white Light Cluster hanging from it.

[Harvest a Third-grade Nurturing Sword Gourd, acquire a Fourth Grade Sea Screaming Sword Seal.]

A thought flashed through his mind and a charm that was neither made of gold nor jade appeared in his palm. Inside, infinite sword intent surged like waves.

“Another fourth-grade sword talisman.”

He sighed. Over the past few days, three mature Nurturing Sword Gourds were harvested from the vine, yielding three fourth-grade sword talismans.

Among them, one Starfall Sword Charm, one Dragon-Elephant Sword Talisman, and one Sea Screaming Sword Charm.

At this point, there were seven remaining Verdant Calabashes on the three vines, which were not far from maturity.

Lu Xuan now had a total of ten fourth-grade sword talismans in his possession. He estimated that even a practitioner at the Early Core Formation stage would find it difficult to simply ward off if they were all wielded simultaneously.

After harvesting the three light clusters, he continued to patrol the Spirit Field, checking the details of each spiritual plant and catering to their respective needs.

One day, while he was cultivating spiritual plants in his cave dwelling, his spiritual sense suddenly detected a charm shuddering outside the formation at the foot of a mountain.

He activated the Flowing Light Formation, drawing the charm towards him, and heard Ge Pu’s voice emerge from it.

“Junior Brother Lu, please come to my cave, 1 need to discuss something with you.”

Shortly after, Lu Xuan once again arrived at Ge Pu’s Black and White Mountain.

Several familiar faces were present, all of them experts at cultivating spiritual plants. These included Liu Su, who had explored the Langyue Blessed Land with him, Zhong Hao, who raised a pair of Scold the Yin Beasts, and several Foundation Establishment Spirit Plant Masters whom he had exchanged cultivation experiences with.

Seeing Lu Xuan’s arrival, Ge Pu gave a slight nod, then after waiting for two more Inner Sect disciples to fly over, his black and white eyes swept over everyone.

“I’ve invited you all here because there’s a favor I need to ask.”

The Sect’s Golden Core Real People discovered a large number of strange spiritual plants when they opened a new Blessed Land and brought some of them back to the Sect.”

“Everyone present here are renowned Spirit Plant Masters within our Sect, and all possess unique skills in cultivating both Spiritual Plants and Spirit Beasts. Hence, I would like everyone to cooperate and find out the peculiar characteristics of these plants, and experiment to find out their potential uses.” After Ge Pu finished speaking, he waved a single hand, and more than a dozen strange spiritual plants suddenly appeared on the ground.

There were spiritual plants engulfed in roaring flames, spiritual plants that left thick frost wherever they passed, and spiritual plants that continuously sprayed poisonous mists at everyone…

All of them, like the Mutated Dragon-patterned Wood, bore an incredibly aggressive instinct.

With a flash of black and white light in Ge Pu’s eyes, all the spiritual plants’ movement slowed and even stopped.

“I shall leave these spiritual plants to you all. I hope to hear good news soon. Finding the Achilles’ heel of these plants could speed up the progress of our fellow sect members’ exploration within the Blessed Land. Discovering their functions could bring considerable value to the sect,” he said.

Ge Pu gave them this instruction and then disappeared into the Black and White Mountain, leaving behind a group of people staring at each other and a batch of differently shaped spiritual plants.

“Fellow Sect members, shall we start researching these strange spiritual plants?”

A middle-aged cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Mid-term said.

“Brother Zhong, you have the highest Cultivation Level, so why don’t you distribute the tasks for teamwork.”

Zhong Hao, a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Late-term, shook his head.

“Researching these spiritual plants doesn’t rely completely on a high cultivation level, or else Brother Ge Pu, as a True Disciple, wouldn’t have called us here.”

“All of us here are well known; when it comes to proficiency with spiritual plants, Junior Brother Lu Xuan is undoubtedly the best among us, so let Junior Brother Lu arrange the tasks.”

“No, no, no don’t,” Lu Xuan said with a grin.

Brother Zhong, you have the highest cultivation level and widely acknowledged skills in raising spiritual beasts. These plants look no different from demon beasts, so I believe Brother Zhong will be able to understand their peculiarities easily,” he said.

“Alright, we shall proceed with this arrangement. I hope everyone will work together and unravel the mystery of these strange spiritual plants.”

Zhong Hao nodded, briefly instructed everyone, and then distributed the spiritual plants to Lu Xuan and the others.

Lu Xuan received a spiritual plant that was ablaze.

The trunk was crimson, and from a distance, one could feel a surge of intense heat, as if many blocks of wood had just been burnt to charcoal.

The dense branches and leaves formed a canopy above the tree. The light-red leaves shimmered with numerous sparkles on the edges. The flames inside the branches and leaves resembled snakes, weaving and coiling around.

As Lu Xuan drew closer, the fire snakes lunged like lightning, the points of starry fire in the leaves instantly intensified. They condense into different shapes of flames from all directions toward Lu Xuan.

“Compared to this spiritual plant, the Flaming Fruit appears to be undeserving of its name,” Lu Xuan remarked.

Lu Xuan thought, and in a blink of an eye, the flames gathering his body together, congealing into a dark, red fireball..
