I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 427: Chapter 425 Dan Palace Weed Species_1

“A fifth-grade formation method!”

Lu Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment.

“The illusion and disappearance of Five Elements Array, capable of trapping or even severely injuring an early Core Formation stage cultivator, the power of this array is truly terrifying.”

He examined the Array Flag and Array Plate in his hands which was constantly changing with surges of five-colored spiritual power, and felt joy in his heart.

“It counts up, this is the third formation method that I’ve unlocked from the Spirit Plant Sphere.”

“First the Phantom Smoke Fruit opened up the Thousand Illusion Cloud Smoke Array , then the Flowing Light Wood gave us the Flowing Light Formation, and now we have the Illusion and Disappearance Five Elements Array.”

He put away the Array Flag and Array Plate, deciding to use it to defend the many peculiar spiritual plants in the Underworld Court when he next visited Sword Gate Town.

There were many fourth and even fifth-grade spiritual plants planted inside. Although so far only the sinister cultivator behind the Holy Baby Fruit plant had tried to break in once, Lu Xuan would naturally be much more at ease if the defense level of the courtyard could be increased.

He rarely went out on normal days and hardly had the opportunity to set up formations and fight enemies. It was a waste to leave the formation method inside the sect, it was quite suitable to arrange it outside the courtyard.

“The Five-Element Fruit has matured, I need to hand over the cultivatable spiritual plants that were commissioned by the Pill Palace including the Primordial Essence Herb and Jade Dew Fruit, along with this four-grade Five-Element Fruit, and then take some spirit seeds from the Pill Palace.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

Having just gotten a fifth-grade spirit seed from True Man Qingxu, he was not satisfied and decided to take a shot at the Dan Palace, the wealthiest part of the Sky Sword Sect.

“It’s not just for the spirit seeds, more importantly, I want the fellow sect members in the Pill Palace to have better medicinal materials for alchemy to refine higher-grade elixirs.”

He shamelessly commented.

Taking out the communication talisman of the Alchemy Master Guan Wan from his storage bag, he infused it with spiritual power.

“Sister Guan, the Five-Element Fruit that you commissioned me to grow has successfully matured, if it is convenient for you now, I will deliver it to you.”

“Really? That’s great, Junior Brother Lu, there is no need for you to go through such trouble, I will come over myself.”

After a while, a communication talisman arrived outside the Flowing Light Formation. A gentle voice came from it, showing a touch of joy, it was Sister Guan.

Hearing this, Lu Xuan had no choice but to wait in his cave dwelling.

Perhaps because the Five-Element Fruit was extremely important, Sister Guan arrived quite quickly. No sooner had the communication talisman arrived than she arrived outside the cave dwelling.

“Sister Guan, you are most welcome.”

Lu Xuan greeted her with a smile.

“Junior Brother Lu’s cave dwelling has more types of spiritual plants and higher grades.”

Guan Wan followed Lu Xuan and, looking at the numerous spiritual plants that were faintly visible in the thick white mist, she commented emotionally.

“On a daily basis, I enjoy nurturing these plants. As I continue to nurture them, the number keeps increasing.”

Lu Xuan replied with a smile.

“Moreover, I need to thank Sister Guan for securing quite a number of spirit seeds for making elixirs from Dan Palace for me.”

“Lu Xuan, you’re too polite. The fact that these spirit seeds were secured was mainly because of your cultivation skills in spiritual plants, my role was not significant.”

Guan Wan chuckled.

Arriving in the courtyard, Lu Xuan served the Spirit Fruit Spirit Paste, inviting Sister Guan to join him.

After some casual conversation, he took out the Five-Element Fruit enclosed in a jade box from his storage bag and handed it to Sister Guan.

“I would like Sister Guan to inspect the Five-Element Fruit.”

“With Junior Brother Lu’s words, there certainly won’t be any problems.”

Guan Wan nodded slightly. Although she had extreme confidence in Lu Xuan, she still had to complete the necessary procedures. She took out the spirit fruit and examined it carefully, even using her spiritual power to test the spirit fruit.

“Its appearance is intact and the quality has even reached a good level.”

“It is really not easy to completely cultivate a fourth-grade spiritual plant. I didn’t expect Junior Brother Lu to complete the task more than required and grew a good quality spirit fruit.”

Guan Wan’s beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

The cultivation of high-grade spiritual plants is extremely difficult. If the level of the spiritual plants is a bit lower, it is very likely that inferior quality spirit fruits will be obtained, or even kill the spiritual plant.

Thus, Lu Xuan presenting her with the good quality Five-Element Fruit had greatly pleased her.

The better the quality of the spirit fruit, the greater the impact it had on alchemy, which can slightly increase the success rate of pill formation and the quality of the elixir.

“Junior Brother Lu’s accomplishments in cultivating spiritual plants surely put him second to none in the sect, except perhaps to our Golden Pellet Elder Uncle.”

“Even our Golden Pellet Elder Uncle, might just have a broader understanding due to varied experiences, but when it comes to a particular spirit plant, he might not even be as good as you, Junior Brother.”

Guan Wan couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Sister, you praise me too much. I still have a long way to go,”

Lu Xuan modestly replied.

“As per the previous agreement, the cultivation of the fourth-grade spiritual plant, the Five-element Fruit, comes with a reward of 100 sword marks. If the quality is good as well, an additional 50 sword marks is awarded. Here are 150 sword marks, please count them, Junior Brother.”

With a wave of her hand, Guan Wan floated a small pile of sword marks before Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan swept his spiritual sense over them and nodded.

“The count is correct.”

After collecting the sword marks, he expressed his thanks to Guan Wan.

With the sword marks earned by cultivating two or three fourth-grade spirit plants, he could afford to buy a new fourth-grade spirit seed in the Agriculture Department Hall.

Lu Xuan gained a rough idea of the wealth of Dan Palace.

How could he miss the opportunity to profit more from such a fat sheep?

Just as he was about to ask, Guan Wan took the initiative to speak.

“Junior Brother Lu, would you like to cultivate the Five-Element Fruit again?”

Lu Xuan nodded hurriedly.

“Being able to do some insignificant things for the Pill Masters of the Dan Palace is indeed an honor for me.”

“Alright, I’ll check the Agricultural Department Hall to see if there are ready-made Five Elements Fruit Spirit Seeds. If not, I’ll bring a few spirit seeds to you after the condensation process.”

Guan Wan spoke gently.

After a pause, as if thinking of something, she looked at Lu Xuan again.

“Junior Brother Lu, have you considered moving towards alchemy?”

“Alchemy?”

Lu Xuan’s mind was stirred.

“Yes.”

“Cultivating spirit plants and making elixirs are largely one and the same. The pill masters in the Dan Palace have more or less experience in cultivating spirit plants, but their level is far behind yours.”

“As you are so proficient in cultivating spiritual plants and can stably produce a large number of high-quality spiritual medicines, it would be somewhat of a waste not to use it to your advantage.”

Lu Xuan fell into deep thought.

As for the cultivation of the spirit plants and spirit fruits, apart from the types requested by others, most of them were used for his own consumption or for feeding spirit beasts. A small portion was used to exchange for spirit seeds and other related resources.

He had rarely thought about alchemy before this, devoting himself wholeheartedly to cultivating spirit plants.

However, after absorbing the experience pack of the Foundation Establishment Pill formula, such thoughts occasionally crossed his mind.

“Obviously, I have to produce such scarce resources as Foundation Establishment Pills, otherwise I wouldn’t be making good use of the elixir recipe experience packs that I’ve absorbed.”

“Whether openly or privately, producing the Foundation Establishment Pills is inevitable.”

“If I join the Dan Palace and become a pill master, then my actions will be justified, and I might just be able to produce Foundation Establishment Pills openly.”

“In the future, if I could produce them, I could also supply them to my own sect, thus opening up a major channel.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself.
