You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 401: Instant Arrow Technique?

With a splendid secret realm right before his eyes, Lu Xuan's only desire was to sow extensively.

He employed the Earth Attraction Technique, causing the spiritual soil of the secret realm to surge and soon form blocks of strip-shaped spiritual fields.

Next, he approached one of the spiritual fields and placed the thirteen newly acquired Sword-Nurturing Gourd spirit seeds into the cracks.

With a move of his spiritual power, strands of pure Spirit Rain gently fell, thoroughly moistening the shallow layers of the gourd spirit seeds in the spiritual soil.

Afterward, he took out some low-grade, second-hand flying swords that he had bought at a low price from his storage bag and evenly arranged them around the gourd spirit seeds, so they could fully absorb the residual sword intent within.

Then, Lu Xuan planted five Flame Fruit and five Ice Gourd Fruit spirit seeds near a spring eye and a small flame mountain, respectively.

These ten second-grade spirit fruits were highly experimental, to see if the special spiritual power environment of the secret realm could induce mutations.

After planting the two types of spirit fruits, he took out a dark yellow jujube core from his Gluttonous Insect Pouch and planted it in the most fertile part of the spiritual soil.

Lu Xuan's mind focused on the Emperor Jujube spirit seed, sensing it eagerly absorbing the earth's spiritual essence from the soil, which reassured him greatly.

He also planted the Diamond Bodhi seed into the spiritual soil. The Diamond Bodhi illusion that hovered near the elliptical spirit seed became significantly more solid under the nourishment of dense spiritual power.

The Diamond Bodhi appeared fierce, holding Buddhist sacred artifacts, and emitted an aura that seemed to deter demons and ghosts of the world.

"I've wronged you before. One day, when I find Buddhist treasures like incense, willing power, and Sanskrit sounds, I'll properly cultivate you," Lu Xuan whispered. He flew above the small flame mountain, and a piece of scorched wood naturally fell down.

During its descent, seemingly sensing the exceptionally pure fire spiritual essence of the small flame mountain, dark golden cracks on the scorched wood suddenly lit up.

"Chirp chirp!"

In the void, a crisp phoenix cry seemed to ring out, as a pair of phoenix illusions the size of thumbs burst out from the dark golden cracks, joyously dancing amidst the flames.

The speed of the phoenix illusions increased, drawing the various colored flames below to automatically point towards their location without any wind.

"You guys are indeed like dry tinder, igniting upon contact," Lu Xuan couldn't help but exclaim.

Transplanting the sixth-grade Phoenix Wood into the secret realm was indeed the right choice.

Due to its grade, it had very high requirements for fire spiritual essence and needed nourishment from third-grade or higher strange fires to grow properly. Previously, keeping it at a tributary of the Earth Fire at his cave dwelling was barely enough to maintain its normal growth.

Now, relocated to the secret realm, it was thriving as if in its natural habitat.

After planting all the spiritual plants, Lu Xuan communicated with the wood spirits in the secret realm, activated the bronze formation plate, and amidst chaos, returned to the Sect's Formation Hall.

"Finally back at the sect. With the large-scale teleportation formation set up by the Formation Hall, along with the corresponding formation plates, traveling between the secret realm and the sect is quite convenient," Lu Xuan reflected as he returned to the base of his cave dwelling. In just a day or two, he felt an unreal sense of detachment, as if he had been gone for ages.

"From now on, I am a spirit plant cultivator with three spiritual fields."

"One for cultivating various exotic and aberrant spiritual plants, one for nurturing high-grade spiritual plants, and one for cultivating conventional spiritual plants, with a clear division of labor."

He inspected the spiritual fields, employing various basic techniques and sword arrays, meticulously nurturing them to meet the needs of all the spiritual plants in his cave dwelling.

"The Arrow Vine is fourth-grade. Mimicking arrow shapes with spiritual power to cultivate them is form without spirit. I need to find a true arrow technique to properly nurture them."

The Arrow Vine itself was unique, and being fourth-grade, the chances of obtaining substantial rewards from luminous orbs were high. Therefore, Lu Xuan highly valued these four mutated Arrow Vines and decided to exchange for an arrow technique in the Sect's Scripture Pavilion to meticulously nurture them.

Half a day later, Lu Xuan returned to his cave dwelling, holding a gray-black jade slip.

This jade slip, which he had exchanged for nearly three hundred Sword Seals, contained a technique named "Instant Arrow Technique."

Rated as third-grade, once mastered, it allowed the user to instantly fire invisible spiritual power arrows, powerful and swift, shooting from various angles, making them hard to defend against.

Lu Xuan pressed the jade slip against his forehead, his spiritual consciousness delving into it,

as a flood of information poured into his sea of consciousness.

After several days of intense practice, he finally managed to release a faint spiritual power arrow.

Excited, Lu Xuan approached the Arrow Vine seedling. As his spiritual power followed the pathways of the "Instant Arrow Technique," a faint spiritual power ripple appeared in front of him, and a finger-thick, translucent spiritual power arrow slowly formed.

Lu Xuan's heart leaped with joy, almost causing the translucent spiritual power arrow to dissipate.

He struggled to control the spiritual power arrow, slowly floating it towards the Arrow Vine seedling. As it brushed against the dark green vines, the arrow inexplicably entered inside.

The Arrow Vine seedling had already produced many rice grain-sized arrows. Upon the entry of the spiritual power arrow into the vines, a series of tinkling sounds emanated from the tiny arrows, which quickly ceased and lay still.

"Did the Scripture Pavilion give me the wrong jade slip? This is called 'Instant Arrow Technique'? It's not even up to the standard of a slow arrow technique."

"Hmm, an arrow technique that allows the enemy to react instantly must be named as such."

Lu Xuan simply shifted the blame, not considering that being able to successfully execute it within a few days with his true talent was beyond expectation.

He approached the other three Arrow Vine spirit seeds, forming a small spiritual power arrow for each, and slowly infused them into the seeds.

After tending to all the spiritual plants in the field, Lu Xuan decided to visit Sword Gate Town.

He currently had a large amount of highly contaminated Dark Decay Flesh Soil, along with eighteen Thousand Tendril Hand spirit seeds, and the gestating Flesh Spirit Deity, which needed to be properly arranged.

Additionally, he wondered if he could sell some of the previously matured Thorny Bone Trees, Ghost-Faced Stone Mushrooms, and Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Woods.

"I wonder how those Underworld Spiritual Plants in the small courtyard are doing..."

Lu Xuan made all the necessary preparations, riding a common third-grade flying sword out of the sect, heading to the nearby Sword Gate Town.

After normally purchasing some cultivation resources, he arrived outside the small courtyard.

Only after confirming that the Thousand Illusion Smoke Formation had not been tampered with did Lu Xuan feel relieved, opened the formation, and entered the courtyard.

As soon as he entered, a dense yin energy rushed towards him.

An eerie baby's cry sounded in his ears, and a thin, gray-black baby figure flashed by, instantly disappearing into the trunk of the Holy Infant Fruit tree.

A blood-red hand crawled to his feet, clinging to Lu Xuan's leg, seemingly trying to suck his essence blood from afar.

Next to it, a tall peach tree rustled its leaves, appearing beautifully delicate. However, the white bones beneath it exposed its true nature.

"Tsks."

Having just experienced the pure beauty of the secret realm, Lu Xuan felt a huge shock upon entering the courtyard filled with chilling winds and wailing resentful spirits, noticing the stark contrast.

"It's too much of an underworld here. I can't contaminate the secret realm."

Originally planning to move the Underworld Spiritual Plants into the secret realm, seeing the scene before him made him immediately abandon the idea.
