I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 396: Chapter 394 Spirit of Flesh _1

Even though Lu Xuan couldn’t identify anything unusual about the dark red stone, he was still very confident in it considering the combat history of the Demonic Vine.

“This is at the core of the underground cave. In theory, it has already been searched once by several Golden Core Real People. The position of this dark red stone is not hidden; they probably did not discover its subtlety.”

Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense swept around him, confidently deciding that the Golden Core Real People had overlooked the stone. He calmly put the dark red stone into his storage bag.

Although he seemed calm on the surface after collecting the stone, he was a bit anxious deep down. He pretended to continue his search in the dark red passage. He finally relaxed completely only when he saw there was no reaction from the Golden Core Real People nearby after a long time.

“Alright, there’s no point in staying any longer. It’s time to return to the sect.”

The thin old man from the Lingxiao Sect’s voice echoed through the entire underground cave.

Hearing this, the cultivators from the three sects hurriedly moved towards the Golden Core Real People at the highest speed.

Lu Xuan and the other cultivators from the Sky Sword Sect followed Gu Jian Kong and the others out of the underground cave and onto the surface.

“I’m going to break through the spatial barrier in the Blessed Land. Follow closely and don’t cause trouble.”

Gu Jian Kong casually reminded everyone as an invisible little sword flew out from within his Sword Qi.

The Sword Qi flew around, enlarged countless times in the blink of an eye, and pierced through the dark red sky of the Blessed Land.

Seeing this, Lu Xuan hurriedly pulled himself together, allowing Gu Jian Kong and the two Golden Pellet elder uncles to wrap him up and fly into the sky.

After what felt like a long time, Lu Xuan finally felt a solid sensation at his feet amidst his confusion.

He shook his head, and the splitting headache that had been plaguing him finally lessened considerably. When he opened his eyes, he was already back in the Inner Sect of the Sky Sword Sect.

The cultivators were standing still within the Teleportation Array.

“This time we opened a new Blessed Land, all my nephews have worked hard.”

In the center, Teacher Uncle He of the Condensing Pill Realm said kindly.

“The sect had a satisfactory harvest during the whole process.”

“Most of the magic artifacts, Spiritual Ores and Spiritual Medicine, etc., need to be handed over to the sect for disposal. The remaining cultivation resources are yours as part of your reward.”

Hearing the gentle words of this scholarly middle-aged man, Lu Xuan felt much at ease.

When the cultivators of the Sky Sword Sect explored the Blessed Land and collected cultivation resources, what they had to turn in had been turned in; the rest was up to their own disposal.

Junior Brother Lu’s strange Spirit Soil, which was promised to himself by the true disciple Fire Scale Child, belonged entirely to himself.

“Once the sect settles everything with the relevant departments, we will reward you all with different treasures.”

“Alright, everyone go back to your caves and rest for a few days.”

Hearing the words of the Golden Pellet Elder Uncle, all the inner sect disciples visibly relaxed, revealing exhausted expressions.

Except for Lu Xuan and a few others, most of the cultivators of the Sky Sword Sect were on the front line, constantly facing the stealthy attacks of various Demon Beasts, Demon envoys, and Mutant Spiritual Plants. Their minds were always on edge, and they dared not relax for a moment. Only now could the negative emotions that had accumulated over time be let out.

“Junior Brother Lu, according to Teacher Uncle He, you, the Spirit Plant Master who stayed behind, should be able to get a rich reward.”

Fire Scale Child walked up to Lu Xuan with a smile, his baby face wearing an old expression.

“I just did a little insignificant logistical work, far less than the life-and-death struggles my older brothers and sisters faced on the front line.”

Lu Xuan humbly said.

“Junior Brother Lu, don’t say that, otherwise I, your senior brother, will really be embarrassed.”

“We indeed killed a lot of demon beasts and Demon envoys, caught many Mutant Spiritual Plants, but in terms of contributions in the Blessed Land, I’m afraid we true disciples did not do as well as you, Junior Brother.”

Fire Scale Child’s tone revealed a bit of enthusiasm.

This trip to the Blessed Land had shown him that Lu Xuan’s accomplishments in the Spiritual Plant Path were far more unexpected than he originally anticipated. Initially not taking much notice of Lu Xuan as a Spirit Plant Master, his opinion changed dramatically after a few incidents.

Within the camp, Lu Xuan managed to exchange a considerable amount of high-value Mutant Spiritual Plants for the sect by making use of his knowledge of them. Along the way, he also helped Fire Scale Child and others to discover the vulnerabilities of the Mutated Camp Tassel, giving them an edge over the cultivators from the two other sects.

At the depths of the underground cavern, when everyone was trapped by the Thousand-Armed Spiritual Plant Formation, it was Lu Xuan who came up with a brilliant method to easily break through it.

Moreover, there were his many research results on Mutant Spiritual Plants during his initial time in the sect, and the assistance he provided to his peers when the camp was attacked by Demon Beast Puppets…

Even though he was a mere Spirit Plant Master, he shone brightly in the Blessed Land, creating an impression that was hard to ignore.

This made Fire Scale Child, who was part of the Authentic Teachings, want to befriend Lu Xuan and took the initiative to offer his goodwill.

After chatting casually with Fire Scale Child and a few others, Lu Xuan excused himself and eagerly went back to his cave dwelling.

Opening the Flowing Light Formation, the Fat Bird came out enthusiastically, chirping non-stop, expressing its longing for Lu Xuan.

The Fire Separation Flood Dragon, Rock-shell Turtle, and Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect also hovered around Lu Xuan, and even the Two-headed Qiu Yu that hid in the mountain for a long time also came out, looked at him from a distance, then returned to the mountain again.

After calming down the Spirit Beasts for a while, Lu Xuan went inside his house.

His trip to the Blessed Land had been a fruitful one. The reward from the sect should not disappoint him. In addition to that, he had also obtained many rare treasures.

Underworld Mud Flesh and Underworld Spirit Soil could be used to cultivate corresponding Underworld Spiritual Plants.

As for spiritual seeds, he had one Arrow Vine seedling, three Arrow Vine Spiritual Seeds and eighteen Thousand-Worm Seedlings, as well as several third-grade Mutated Spirit Seeds.

“I naturally have to plant the spiritual seed of the Thousand Qiu in the small courtyard of Sword Gate Town. But as the number of Underworld Spiritual Plants grows, the area of the courtyard is somewhat insufficient. I will need to find an opportunity to change for a better and safer Spirit Field,” Lu Xuan murmured as he divided the Thousand Qiu spiritual seeds from the rest.

“There doesn’t seem to be much empty spirit fields left in such a large cave dwelling.”

He looked at the Arrow Vine and other spiritual seeds with a somewhat worried expression.

“Sigh, just like in my previous life, I can’t break the habit of collecting seeds.”

“Every time I see a good seed, I can’t help but collect it, without considering if I have enough space to grow them.”

Lu Xuan sighed.

“There’s also this dark red stone…”

He took out from his storage bag the dark red stone that caused the Demonic Vine to react abnormally, observed it for a while, and still didn’t discover anything unusual.

“When in doubt, cultivate.”

He found a free spirit field, performed the Earth Pulling Technique, making a crevice appear in the spirit field, and inserted the dark red stone into it.

He concentrated his Spiritual Sense on it, but no thoughts appeared as he expected.

“That’s unusual… Could it be that the Demonic Vine was mistaken?”

After retrieving the dark red stone and recalling the unknown flesh power he encountered in the Blessed Land, as well as the seventh grade Demon Beast Corpses in the heart of the underground cavern, a light flashed in his mind.

He took out a piece of fresh Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood from his storage bag and smeared it on the surface of the dark red stone.

With anticipation, he again concentrated his Spiritual Sense on the dark-red stone.

A thought emerged in his mind.

“Flesh Spirit God, a Demon Envoy, is incubating. By being nourished by the flesh and blood of a seventh-grade Demonic Beast, it can give birth to a powerful Demon Envoy.”

“It can radiate a strange flesh and blood aroma, and subtly contaminate and invade all beings within a certain range.”

“It likes to eat flesh and blood. After fully growing, it can master a powerful Flesh Secret Technique, manipulate the flesh of all creatures within a certain range, and its strength can be comparable to that of a Primordial Infant Cultivator.”
