I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 947 - 945
"Class 5 White Bone Killing Sword Grass?"
Sword Wu Xia followed Lu Xuan to a corner of the courtyard.
"Junior Brother Lu, had you not mentioned it, I would have forgotten about that matter."
A look of realization dawned on her face.
Lu Xuan took out the pale white sword grass, shaped like a bone, from his storage bag and handed it to Sword Wu Xia.
The moment the Bone Slaying Sword Grass appeared, the surrounding space was filled with a strong murderous intent, as if it were about to slice through their skin.
"Such intense murderous aura!"
Sword Wu Xia was delighted, turning the sword grass in her hands, scrutinizing every part of it.
"The quality is superior, stronger than most fifth grade flying swords."
The more she looked, the more she liked it, smiling with appreciation.
"Thank you, Junior Brother Lu, for cultivating this five-grade sword grass to maturity, and for bringing it to me all the way from the far-off Cloud Void Domain."
"Here are two hundred sword marks, as a reward for you, Junior Brother. Please accept them."
A flash of spiritual light appeared on her body, and a small pile of sword marks quietly surfaced, floating towards Lu Xuan.
"Alright, then I shall accept without reserve."
Lu Xuan laughed, taking all the sword marks.
These two hundred sword marks were worth at least sixty thousand low-grade spirit stones. To get so many for cultivating a five-grade sword grass, he could not be more satisfied.
Moreover, he had obtained that strange treasure, the Tablet of the Profound Realm, from the Sword Grass Light Cluster.
The two did not engage in idle chatter; Lu Xuan transmitted a message to summon Fire Scale Child.
"Lu… Junior Brother…"
A clear nervousness was etched on Fire Scale Child’s face.
His first attempt at breaking through the Core Formation stage had failed, consuming most of his fortune in the preparation and recovery process. After coming to the Sword Sect, without the abundant resources once available at the Sky Sword Sect, he felt like he was treading on thin ice, extremely cautious.
Just to be well-prepared for another attempt was an accomplishment; obtaining a spiritual object that could increase the probability of Core Formation for someone without a background and only at the Foundation Establishment Realm was as difficult as reaching for the heavens.
"Elder Brother Huo, back in the Sky Sword Sect, I was cared for by Elder Brother at every turn."
"Here, I have a Five-Quality Holy Infant Pill, which might slightly increase the chances of Core Formation. It’s not of much use to me, so I gift it to you, Elder Brother."
"I hope Elder Brother will succeed in ascending to Core Formation in one go!"
Lu Xuan spoke with sincere earnestness.
He had countless treasures in his possession, and a fifth grade dan medicine was not so rare.
Additionally, he had the Saint Baby Pill elixir recipe; as long as he could obtain the Holy Baby Fruit, he could concoct it.
But for Fire Scale Child, Lu Xuan’s gesture was like sending coal in a snowstorm.
At such a crucial juncture, the value of the Saint Baby Pill was immeasurable.
"Junior Brother Lu, this Saint Baby Pill is too precious. I still have some spirit stones, as well as two fine magic artifacts, which I could use to exchange with you, Junior Brother. What do you say?"
As Fire Scale Child spoke, a pile of spirit stones and two treasures radiating with spiritual light emerged between them.
"Elder Brother Huo, this Saint Baby Pill is a gift from me to you, your reaction makes me feel like an outsider."
A wall of spiritual power appeared in front of Lu Xuan, blocking off the spirit stones and magic artifacts from Fire Scale Child.
"Alright, then I’ll accept it without holding back."
"If there is ever a need for me in the future, Junior Brother, I’ll plunge through dales of swords and flames at your dispatch."
Fire Scale Child muttered, his voice low.
"There’s no need for such extremes; as a Spirit Plant Master, there shouldn’t be any dangerous situations for Elder Brother because of me."
Lu Xuan laughed heartily.
"If Elder Brother can’t get over this and doesn’t want to owe this favor, there is another solution."
"If you acquire some rare and exotic Spiritual Seeds in the future, you can give them to me, Junior Brother."
He said half-seriously, half-jokingly.
"Agreed!"
Fire Scale Child nodded repeatedly, engraving Lu Xuan’s words deep into his heart.
After the gathering came to an end, the fellow sect members took leave one after another.
Lu Xuan stayed a while longer for his first visit to Ge Pu’s cave abode.
"Junior Brother Lu, you seldom venture out on normal days, and when you are in the sect, you do not actively cater to the more powerful brethren. Now, it seems you have changed somewhat from before," Ge Pu reflected with a smile as they walked through the lush courtyard.
"The fellowship of sect members should be cherished," Lu Xuan remarked casually.
"Indeed so."
"When the several Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Sky Sword Sect brought us back to the Dongxuan Sword Sect, even though there was no overt ostracism, it was still tough to integrate."
"That’s why we need to band together, to aim higher and go further within the Sword Sect," Ge Pu sighed.
"Right, the Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Sky Sword Sect, aside from two who are traveling, the others have heard about Junior Brother coming here."
"Because of the generational hierarchy, I was afraid that some would not let go, so I did not invite them. When you have time later, Junior Brother, I will introduce you to them."
"Indeed, I should pay them a visit."

When Lu Xuan was at the Sky Sword Sect, he had almost no interaction with the several Nascent Soul True Monarchs within the gate, but now that he had come to the Dongxuan Sword Sect, even if he was favored by the True Sword Master, the proper courtesies still needed to be observed.
After chatting idly for a while, Lu Xuan took his leave and returned to his cave abode.
In the following days, he took a day to bring some Spirit Fruit Spirit Brews and paid a visit with Ge Pu to the Nascent Soul True Monarchs from their time at the Sky Sword Sect.
The rest of the time, he mostly stayed in his cave abode; while understanding various related information about the Sword Sect, he was also cultivating the myriad of Sword Grass in the Spirit Field.
One day, as he was nourishing the Sword Grass Spirit Seeds with Sword Qi, a clear and loud voice came from outside his cave abode.
"Elder Brother Lu, are you in the cave abode? We are three Spirit Plant Masters from Huanzhen Sword Peak, here to visit Elder Brother."
Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense swept over and immediately noticed three cultivators outside his cave abode.
The leader was a young man with a jade-like face and lacquer-like eyes, possessing mid-stage Golden Core cultivation.
The other two, one was a middle-aged man with an honest and simple face dressed like an old farmer, and the other was a delicate woman holding a four-eared Spirit Beast somewhat resembling a rabbit, both in the early Core Formation stage.
Lu Xuan flew to the entrance of his cave abode, a smile on his face.
"I am Lu Xuan; I greet my fellow junior brothers and sisters."
"I was busy in the Spirit Field and could not welcome you from afar; I ask for your forgiveness."
"Shang Xiuyuan, Yu Qiushui, and Guo Shan greet Elder Brother Lu."
The handsome young man was named Shang Xiuyuan, the old farmer monk was Guo Shan, and the woman was Yu Qiushui.
"Junior brothers and sisters, please come in."
After a brief introduction, Lu Xuan smilingly welcomed the three into his cave abode.
Once they were seated, he offered them Spirit Fruit Spirit Brews as hospitality.
"Hearing that True Return Uncle-Master introduced a Spirit Plant Master, Spirit Brew Master, and Talisman Master from outside, meeting Elder Brother Lu today, indeed impressive," Shang Xiuyuan slowly sipped a mouthful of Ice Marrow Spirit Brew and exclaimed.
The other two nodded in agreement.
"Junior Brother flatters me; if you like it, feel free to come over regularly for a few drinks."
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
"Not to hide it from Elder Brother, the three of us are Spirit Plant Masters from Huanzhen Sword Peak; each of us cultivates several types of Sword Grass as well as many other Spirit Plants."
"Although we are far from your level in the Path of Spiritual Plants, we still barely rank near the top within Sword Peak."
"We hope that Elder Brother won’t hesitate to instruct us in the future, to collectively improve the cultivation standards of Sword Peak’s Spirit Plants."
Shang Xiuyuan spoke earnestly.
"Instruction is too strong a word; let’s say we exchange and learn from one another."
Lu Xuan replied modestly.
