I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 479: Chapter 477 Foundation Establishment Late-term_1

“Congratulations Junior Brother Lu, you’ve acquired the formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill.”

After Lu Xuan became a Core Alchemist of Dan Hall, Guan Wan’s tone was even more cordial.

“I wonder if Junior Brother is still willing to cultivate spiritual plants for the Dan Palace?”

“I’d be more than happy to.”

With the chance to mooch off a lit cluster, how could Lu Xuan possibly refuse?

Moreover, the probability of elixir recipes appearing from the spiritual plants he was asked to cultivate for the Dan Hall was not low, and it was the most suitable for him who aimed to refine elixirs.

“Good, then I will have to trouble you again, Junior Brother.”

“After a few days, I’ll go to the Agricultural Department Hall and send the Jade Dew Fruit Spirit Seed to your Cave Mansion.”

Guan Wan’s smile widened upon hearing this.

It wasn’t easy to find a high-grade spirit plant master like Lu Xuan, whose cultivation of spiritual plants had a 100% survival rate and yielded many high-quality spiritual plants and fruits. Naturally, he would be welcomed by the Dan Palace.

Lu Xuan returned to his Cave Mansion with the jade slip containing the elixir recipe.

He pressed the jade slip against his forehead, and his spiritual sense seeped into it, causing a large amount of information about refining the Foundation Establishment Pill to flow into his mind.

“It is like reviewing what I have learned, but unfortunately, I cannot gain alchemy experience like I do from the elixir recipes that come out of light clusters.”

Lu Xuan sighed.

Three days later, while he was irrigating the Water Glow Grass with the Spirit Rain Technique, Fire Scale Child came to his Cave Mansion.

“Elder Brother Huo, I heard that there was an abnormality in the Hei Moguan Secret Realm this time. Are you and the other brothers who went with you okay?”

Lu Xuan asked softly.

“Two junior brothers were seriously injured and have been greatly weakened. They may need several years of rest to recover. Fortunately, no one among our group died.”

“However, many ‘Loose Repair’ practitioners, even ones from great sects, were severely injured during the mid-term to late-term Foundation Establishment stage, and died.”

Fire Scale Child sighed, his face as somber as water.

“What exactly happened? Does Senior Brother know the details?”

“In the mysterious prohibition at the center of the Secret Realm, a large number of powerful demon envoys are locked up, including calamity-level evil cultivators with Core Formation abilities. When the prohibition broke, these beings were released, causing disaster throughout Black Demon Abyss.”

“Junior Brother Lu, it’s fortunate you didn’t go with me to explore the secret realm last time. Otherwise, under the impact of a large number of demon envoys, I might not have been able to protect you.”

Fire Scale Child admitted frankly.

“Senior Brother, you are worrying too much. With your abilities, there would have undoubtedly been no problems.”

“However, if there are so many demon envoys appearing in the Secret Realm, how should they be dealt with?”

Lu Xuan flattered him lightly, then asked.

“The nearby large sects should join forces to wipe them out, so as not to let them cause trouble in the Cultivation World.”

“Additionally, the center of the secret realm may contain rare treasures. As far as I know, some ‘Golden Core Real People’ are interested in entering, which will cause a bloody storm.”

A trace of maturity emerged on Fire Scale Child’s childish face as he said this with a sigh.

He was merely passing by Lu Xuan’s Cave Mansion, and he didn’t stay long before leaving.

Lu Xuan remained calm.

Whether it was powerful cultivators falling in the Secret Realm, or treasures hidden in the Secret Realm, it had nothing to do with him. All he needed to do was stay in the sect, farm steadily, and be obedient.

In the following three months, he only went once to Underworld Court and the Incomplete Secret Realm, to plant the Underworld Spring Flowers, and took the opportunity to check on the condition of the spiritual plants in the two spirit fields.

He spent the rest of his time in the Sect, cultivating spiritual plants, rearing spirit beasts, cultivating techniques in his free time, and refining elixirs. His days were uncomplicated yet fulfilling.

In the meantime, Guan Wan from the Dan Palace handed over the jade dew fruit spirit seeds to him in his cave.

Perhaps because the cultivation was successful last time, the number of new spirit seeds delivered was doubled, totalling twenty.

The jade dew fruit being a third-grade spiritual plant is valuable. The fact that twenty were given at once demonstrated the Dan Palace’s trust in Lu Xuan’s spirit plant cultivation level.

The water glow grass seeds that were previously used to induce stimulation, under the continuous nurturing of the hundred-year Ice Spirit, went through round after round of selection. Eventually, mutated spirit seeds appeared that held distinctive qualities.

The spirit seeds contained a minute frigid strength, but they didn’t jump in rank and remained as second-level spirit plants.

Lu Xuan wasn’t in a hurry about it. The improvement of spirit seeds was not something that could be done in a day, but required a Spirit Plant Master to be patient, induce the spirit seeds time after time, and then observe the characteristics of the cultivated spirit plants. This cycle persisted indefinitely.

Because of his ability to examine the status of spirit seeds and spirit plants at any time, he could cut losses in time, cultivate selectively, and save a great deal of time and effort compared to the ordinary improvement process.

He still has a long way to go before he could breakthrough to the Core Formation. He could still gain a substantial cultivation reward from the water glow grass, only needing to make improvements in the meantime.

In the spirit field, under his conscientious care, all spirit plants were growing well. The sword thousand owls and the Mayfly Grass, both of the fourth grade, had reached the maturity stage. Lu Xuan was very much looking forward to the light cluster rewards after harvesting the two kinds of spirit plants.

“The water glow grass has started maturing.”

The slender green leaves of the two hundred water glow grass plants were closely packed together, forming a deep blue area. Countless glows were faintly flashing inside, looking like thousands of stars in the sky.

Lu Xuan took a close look and found that four of them had fully matured.

The light cyan light group in his dantian started rotating slightly, and a faint flow of light cyan spiritual energy full of vitality emitted from his body, seeping into the maturing water glow grass.

The water glow grass is only a second-level spirit plant, and they have all entered the mature stage. Even though there were many plant stems, the Qingmu origin energy consumed was not much. Absorbing half of a Nascent Soul Grass Orb could fully replenish it.

“Opening one light cluster at a time is too troublesome, I want to open enough at one go!”

Thinking this, Lu Xuan picked one hundred and fifty water glow grass plants, leaving the remaining fifty plants for condensing seeds.

Perhaps because he had taken meticulous care of them during this period, the quality of the water glow grass was very good. The majority of them were of good quality, followed by top quality. The least amount of them were of ordinary quality.

A hundred and fifty white light clusters shimmered slightly, making Lu Xuan feel overwhelmed.

He touched the light groups one by one. Many light groups burst open at once, turning into countless tiny light specks, which flooded into his body.

Thoughts flashed by.

[Harvested a stalk of water glow grass, gained a year’s worth of cultivation.]

[Harvested a stalk of water glow grass…]

…

Waves of surging spiritual power emerged out of thin air, wreaking havoc amid his meridians.

He operated his cultivation techniques with full force, compressing and refining the massive spiritual power into drops of spiritual liquid, storing them in his dantian.

After absorbing all of it, the extremely pure spiritual liquid in his dantian swelled and billowed. The internal aura within his body surged greatly.

“Late-term Foundation Establishment.”

Lu Xuan felt a sense of great fortune, as if he had realized something.

Among the one hundred and fifty light clusters, almost twenty of them contained cultivation rewards. That brought Lu Xuan thirty more years of cultivation, allowing him to breakthrough to the late-term Foundation Establishment realm in one fell swoop.

“After being in the sect for more than twenty years, I finally broke through to the late-term Foundation Establishment. All of this is due to my efforts in cultivating, along with the slight aids from the light clusters.”

Lu Xuan stood on the spot, feeling the various changes within his body. There was a sense of surrealism.

Once, when he was still a small loose cultivator in Qi cultivation, he would never have imagined that he would reach the Foundation Establishment late-term cultivation.
