I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 534: 532: Magic Catastrophe_1
Chapter 534 -532: Magic Catastrophe_1
“The situation shouldn’t be so serious, should it?”
Someone asked anxiously.
“It’s uncertain. Perhaps with the strength of the sect, we don’t need us Spirit Plant Masters to easily deal with the current situation.”
“On the other hand, we may need to go to the front line. After all, even if our cultivation is somewhat lower than some fellow disciples, we did come from a great sect, which already makes us stronger than the foundation establishment loose cultivators out there.”
There was a lively discussion among the people.
“Brother Lu, everyone knows that you usually spend all your time cultivating spiritual plants, not focusing on cultivating formula methods, collecting magical artifacts or enhancing your own strength. What will you do when the time comes?”
Liu Su turned to look at Lu Xuan, her eyes filled with a touch of worry.
Everyone had interacted with Lu Xuan many times and knew that he devoted himself to cultivating spiritual plants. The reason he had his current cultivation level was entirely due to consuming elixirs. The purpose was to improve his spiritual power to cultivate more spirit plants.
Unlike other Spirit Plant Masters, the main purpose of cultivating spiritual plants was to earn spirit stones and exchange cultivation resources.
“Where there’s a will, there’s a way. We will figure it out when the time comes.”
“With my cultivation level at the foundation establishment mid-term, I should at least have some ability to protect myself.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
His ability to protect himself wasn’t merely a question of whether he had it or not, but rather that he was extraordinarily strong. Even cultivators at the early core formation stage might not have as many means as him.
After discussing the current situation, everyone lost the mood for idle chat and bid farewell one after another.
…
In the spirit field…
The faint whistle of sword qi could be heard intermittently, with various small sword qi moving around several sword grasses. Under the guidance of qi activity, the surrounding sword intent was pervasive, causing a slight tingling sensation when approached.
Lu Xuan sat cross-legged in the spirit field, with spiritual power surging. An invisible Sword Qi shot out from his fingertips, instantly divided into more than ten, disappearing into the spiritual energy causing ripples, after which it quickly returned to calm.
However, under his keen spiritual sense, the more than ten invisible sword qi seemed to be attracted by something and silently merged into a transparent substance.
The transparent substance was constantly changing, gradually revealing a sharp sword intent. Even with Lu Xuan’s partly developed pupil skill, it was easy to overlook its existence. Only a keen spiritual sense could detect it.
“After two months, I have finally made initial progress in understanding Invisible Divergent Sword Qi.”
Lu Xuan stood up, his heart filled with many emotions.
With the help of the Level 5 Treasure of the Clear Mind Sword, his talent in the path of the sword had escalated to an extremely high level. After nearly two months with the spectral splitting shadow sword grass spirit seed, he finally derived the Invisible Divergent Sword Qi.
“What I need to do in the future is gradually improve the Slaughter Sword Intent and the Formless Differentiation Sword Intent, and ultimately attain the complete Fifth-Rank Sword Art.”
He thought to himself.
Over these two months, although he had basically stayed in his cave dwelling, he could still clearly feel the rapid operations of the giant entity that was the Sky Sword Sect during his occasional departures.
Inner Sect disciples were frequently going in and out of the sect. The demand for various types of healing elixirs, evil-eradicating artifacts, and other items within the sect had reached an unprecedented level. Occasionally, one could even overhear some news about demon envoys and demonic monsters.
Some sect was wiped out by an outer realm demon, with more than half of its disciples dying or being injured. Some market was casually destroyed by a passing disaster-level evil spirit. Certain Inner Sect disciples unexpectedly perished, their lives and cultivation extinguished.
The chaos is approaching, and more and more disciples are taking the initiative to go out and hunt demons and evil spirits. The aim is to earn merit, obtain cultivation resources, and thereby have a chance to reach Core Formation or even the Nascent Soul stage.
Although it was quite risky, many fellow disciples also received generous rewards, fighting and winning one opportunity after another.
Of course, there was still a gap compared to the rewards obtained from the light clusters harvested from the spirit field spirit plants.
Lu Xuan didn’t care about the external upheaval and stayed peacefully in his cave dwelling, guarding his many spiritual plants.
He inspected his spirit field, then returned to his courtyard.
He entered a modestly decorated room and approached a wooden table.
The table was adorned with several jade containers, filled with Thousand Year Mysterious Life Spirit Milk, which he had blackmailed from the Heavenly Abyss Treasure Meeting.
In the milky-white liquid, several faint-blue spirit seeds were faintly discernible.
These were Water Glow Grass Spirit Seeds. He’d been stimulating them with Hundred-Year Ice Spirit and other methods before soaking them in Mysterious Life Spirit Milk for warm nourishment.
The Ink Bone Tree that was abandoned by the cultivator and soaked in the spirit milk for a long time had become abundantly vitalized. It looked no different from regular Spirit Seeds. Inspired by this, Lu Xuan decided to soak the Water Glow Grass Spirit Seeds, that he had induced, in spirit milk to enhance their vitality.
He took out several spirit seeds from the jade containers and moved to the spirit field, used the Earth Pulling Technique and placed the spirit plants into the spirit soil.
[Water Glow Grass, second-level spirit plant, rich in water vitality, can provide material for common elixirs that can enhance spiritual power.]
[The spirit seeds are in a mutation state, extremely vigorous, and constantly producing seeds. It’s possible to produce new varieties of spirit plants.]
“Mutated spirit seeds, finally, there is a glimmer of hope for a successful modification.”
Lu Xuan was delighted in his heart.
Based on his past experience, if he were to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, the cultivation award from the second-level Water Glow Grass would drastically reduce due to the disparity in rank, and the increase in spiritual power would become extremely scarce.
Therefore, after he broke through the later stage of Foundation Establishment, he tried to induce and improve the Water Glow Grass Spirit Seeds, to create new varieties.
After several years, he finally saw the light of dawn.
“What needs to be done in the future is to keep planting seeds while inducing and stimulating until a new variety of spirit plants is obtained.”
He secretly thought in his heart.
The joy of successfully inducing Water Glow Grass Spirit Seeds was soon overwhelmed by the news.
One day, while Lu Xuan was cultivating spiritual plants, a steadfast and harmonious voice echoed through the entire sect, ringing in the ears of all Sky Sword Sect disciples.
“The spatial barrier of Cave Heaven is damaged; a vast number of demons from outside the realm have invaded our boundaries. We, the cultivators of the Sect, must slay the demons and defend the Sect, protecting our realm.”
The voice was deafening and lingered in the sea of consciousness of the inner sect disciples. freёweɓnovel.com
“A large number of outer realm demons have invaded….”
Lu Xuan stood still, murmuring to himself.
Previously, he had discovered the Flame Demon Worm Mother, the hue worms controlled by the demon insects, and the Mind-Confusing Viper Bug that had invaded spirit beasts. Since then, he was preparing himself mentally for this.
But on hearing this news, his emotions still became a little unstable.
“I guess it won’t be that easy to continue with my peaceful farming life in the Sect.”
Lu Xuan sighed inwardly.
However, with my current cultivation level and my amassed collection of precious treasures, I’ll be able to protect myself even in chaos.”
“All I want is to peacefully farm my fields, why do they have to bother me?”
“Whoever disturbs my peaceful farming, I will have to turn it into fertilizer in my spirit field, to nourish those Underworld Spiritual Plants.”
“Luckily, their souls, flesh and bones can all be absorbed in one go.”
A cold smirk appeared at the corner of Lu Xuan’s mouth.
