I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 553: 551: Nail-head Arrow_1

Chapter 553 -551: Nail-head Arrow_1

About half a day later, Lu Xuan stopped in his tracks, taking the opportunity to dispose of a demon beast that was in his way.

At this point, he was very far from where he had slain Chen Luo.

His spiritual sense swept the surrounding area and, upon confirming that there were no anomalies, Lu Xuan took out the two storage bags he had collected.

He forcibly removed the simple prohibition on the surface of the storage bags. Many items were taken out one by one.

“Notes on Hundred Beasts…”

A yellowed ancient book was slowly floated out of Chen Luo’s storage bag and appeared in front of him.

Lu Xuan flipped through a few pages casually. The ancient book detailed information on hundreds of high-ranking, rare demon beasts.

Methods of upbringing, things to pay attention to, the innate bloodlines of demon beasts, their abilities, weaknesses, and much more.

“It’s much more detailed and informative than the beast annals I’ve seen in the Scripture Treasury Pavilion.”

Lu Xuan was delighted. He had raised many spirit beasts and the knowledge in this book, “Notes on Hundred Beasts,” was extremely beneficial to him.

“That Senior Brother Chen, he was trying to rummage around for that taming ancient beast scroll which I fabricated, he never imagined that he would end up giving me such a book.”

Lu Xuan couldn’t help but raise the corner of his mouth.

He continued to examine the items in the storage bag.

A fourth-grade flying sword, although it wasn’t grown from Sword Grass cultivated in the Sword Hall, it revealed a clear Sect style. Lu Xuan identified it with a single glance.

Many records of demon beast experiments indicated that Chen Luo was trying to induce mutations in the bloodline of demon beasts, making them evolve into new high-grade monsters.

In addition, there were over two hundred middle-grade spirit stones, a number of low-grade spirit stones, and several bottles of elixirs for recovering spiritual power and healing wounds, all of which Lu Xuan gladly accepted.

Finally, an obsidian monster beast egg appeared. Lu Xuan’s spiritual sense permeated it, and roughly judged it to be a common fourth-grade monster beast.

“It really is profitable to rob and kill, wiping out a cultivator can bring so many cultivation resources. No wonder there are so many in the Cultivation World who like to kill and rob.”

Lu Xuan lamented secretly.

“However, apart from the spirit stones and elixirs, all of these things from Chen Luo, to a greater or lesser extent, carry his personal characteristics. I should keep ‘Notes on Hundred Beasts’ and the experiments on the demon beasts, but must be careful not to let the other cultivators from the Sect see them.”

“As for the flying sword and other magical artifacts, as well as that demon beast egg, it can be disposed of in the black market.”

He continued to check the items in the storage bag of the body cultivator.

An Array Plate, even with Lu Xuan’s shallow knowledge of formations, he could just about recognise it as a fourth-grade formation.

A large quantity of body tempering medicinal pastes, spiritual liquids, and various elixirs.

A heap of materials from monster beasts, all high grade, that could be exchanged for a huge number of spirit stones.

Over three hundred middle-grade spirit stones and some low-grade spirit stones.

“The two of them brought me over sixty thousand spirit stones altogether. What good cultivators, good friends.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

As for the other magic weapons, materials, elixirs, and so on, their total value was even higher, befitting cultivators at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage freewebnøvel.coɱ

He consolidated the items from two storage bags into one, and focused on patrolling the surrounding area.

During the flight, he was circling around Black Star City, so he was still in the outer area and had not entered the Black Demon Abyss Territory.

Half a month later, guessing that his mission period was about to expire, Lu Xuan decided to return to Black Star City.

In the following period, he had the opportunity to rest extensively. He stayed in the small courtyard, quietly cultivating his spiritual plants and practicing his cultivation techniques.

Meanwhile, when the black market opened again, by using Thousand Masks and the Clear Dragonfly Feather Robe to disguise his appearance and aura, he managed to successfully sell a large batch of collected treasures. He obtained hundreds of middle-grade spirit stones and his wealth got a lot stronger.

On the streets of Black Star City.

A lean middle-aged cultivator with a sharp temper slowly walked out of the Gold Fighting Pavilion.

“Friend Zhou, please do come and visit whenever you have the time.”

The charming female shopkeeper of the Gold Fighting Pavilion sent Zhou Qi off, her tone laced with a touch of reluctance.

“Certainly.”

Zhou Qi nodded slightly and turned away.

He had only come to clear out his excess stash of Demon Beast materials and replenish some elixirs. Finishing his task, he headed towards his dwelling.

He didn’t notice a thin crack appearing frequently in the sky above him, thousands of feet high. A gray-white eye darted quickly, disappearing into the void in an instant.

The appearance of the Void Nightmare Eye was extremely concealed, and it was a Fifth Rank, so it could enter the void within an instant. Thus, no cultivator noticed it.

The gray-white eye followed Zhou Qi back to his dwelling, looking down without any trace of emotion, seeming to see through everything below.

“I’ve been tracking for so long, and haven’t found anything odd. I think the vigilance against Brother Zhou Qi can be slightly reduced.”

In the small courtyard.

Lu Xuan looked at the shrunken scene in the eye of his palm, and withdrawing his fist, he sighed.

After returning home, because he suspected Zhou Qi of revealing his task to Chen Luo, Lu Xuan had been secretly observing him using Void Nightmare Eye for over a month but found nothing.

“It seems that Brother Zhou didn’t expect Chen Luo to be hostile to his fellow sect members, so he disclosed my task to him.”

“Yes, for a Foundation Establishment mid-term “Spirit Plant Master” like me, it is more than enough for one Foundation Establishment Perfect senior brother to deal with me. If two of them teamed up, it would be overkill.”

Lu Xuan sighed leisurely.

He secretly withdrew the Void Nightmare Eye and came to the small courtyard to check the growth of many spiritual plants in his spirit field.

More than two hundred Water Glow Grass plants have grown lushly. The thin, indigo leaves interlinked, covered with specks of luminescence, like endless stars flickering in the night sky.

Lu Xuan’s spiritual power surged. Above the Water Glow Grass, clouds transformed, and strands of Spirit Rain fell. It landed on the plants and silently merged within.

Then, a verdant formula method descended over a large area of Water Glow Grass. Under the stimulation of the Grandmaster level Tree Life Spell, the Water Glow Grass thrived even more.

“One of the Arrow Vines is mature.”

Lu Xuan’s focus condensed on one Arrow Vine and noticed that the translucent progress bar below it had filled up.

Among the four arrow vines, one was a seedling brought back by a sect monk from the newly discovered blessed land and had been brought to Lu Xuan who had planted it in his residence.

The other three were the spiritual seeds of three Arrow Vines that the Demonic Vine had helped to dig out while exploring the new blessed lands. Now, the seedling had fully matured.

Lu Xuan plucked the spirit plant, concentrating his spiritual sense on the plant.

[Fourth Grade Exceptional Arrow Vine, mutated due to the influence of an unknown flesh power, it has absorbed a lot of the aura of arrows during its growth. When mature, it can be used similarly to a magic artifact and can instantly release arrows with different shapes and functions. When encountering a formidable enemy, it can trigger a barrage of arrows, capable of injuring or even killing a mid to late-term Foundation Establishment cultivator.]

[After releasing the arrows, they can be regenerated using the aura of grass and wood.]

“An attack type spirit plant, with a simple activation method. It can be used to guard the Spirit Field and can be taught to the Grass Puppet and spirit beasts of the dwelling.”

With a sigh from Lu Xuan, his gaze fell on a white light cluster that quietly appeared.

He gently touched the surface of the light cluster. The light cluster turned into countless tiny points of light and surged into his body.

An idea emerged.

[You harvested one Fourth-Grade Exceptional Arrow Vine and obtained a Fifth Grade Treasure, Nailhead Arrow.]
