You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 1024: The Grand Competition at Sword Peak

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed.

Inside his Dantian, the Thunder Roc Feather and the Scolding Thunder Wing had initially fused successfully.

On the silver-white wings, it seemed as if a huge phantom of a Thunder Roc was attached, carrying the Power of Wind and Thunder, flying at an extreme speed.

“Compared to before, the Spiritual Nature has obviously increased a lot. As for the increase in speed, I still need to find another opportunity to test it.”

Lu Xuan carefully felt the changes in the Scolding Thunder Wing.

A complete fusion and consecration would take a considerable amount of time. During this process, it was inconvenient to use the Scolding Thunder Wing to avoid affecting the upgrade of this speed-type Magic Artifact.

Fortunately, he had mostly stayed in his Cave Abode, only occasionally visiting Ge Pu and others, hardly having a chance to activate the Scolding Thunder Wing.

After practicing several Divine Skills he had mastered, Lu Xuan went to the Pill Room and began Alchemy.

After failing twice, he finally succeeded in refining a batch of Fifth Rank “Five Element Pill.”

“Whether it’s a Foundation Establishment Pill or a Dust Removal Pill, I already have a master-level standard and can easily produce a batch.”

“But the ‘Five Element Pill,’ being of a higher Rank and absorbing fewer Pill Formula Experience Packages, I can only say I’m proficient with a success rate of about thirty percent.”

Lu Xuan silently compared the Alchemy levels of the various Elixirs he mastered.

He needed to continually provide a steady stream of Treasure Items for the shop on his own. Besides those offered by the Light Cluster, he had to take on a significant portion himself.

Most of the Elixirs, Sword Talismans, and various Spirit Brews were made by Lu Xuan himself, simply because his skills far surpassed other Pill Masters and Talisman Masters, so he didn’t spend too much time on them.

Among them, the highest Rank Five Element Pill required the most effort, but its success rate had already exceeded many Alchemy Masters.

Lu Xuan stored four pills of the Five Elements Spirit Light into the Gluttonous Insect Pouch and went to the Spirit Field.

The numerous Sword Grasses were growing well. The newly planted Thousand Thunder Sword Grass Spirit Seed had already taken root and sprouted. The Sword Grass seedlings were the size of bean sprouts, but the silver-white Sword Qi swirling around them revealed their extraordinariness.

The Bone Slaying Sword Grass, Spectral Splitting Shadow Sword Grass, and the equally Fifth Grade Thunder Sound Sword Grass had grown pleasingly after his meticulous cultivation for over half a year.

Though the growth of the Sixth Grade Star Shifting Sun and Moon Sword Grass and Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass was a bit slower, they were nevertheless in good condition.

Next to the Sword Grass Spirit Field Area, seven Origin Spirit Ginsengs were planted.

Around the Spirit Ginseng, clouds of mist were gathering, almost materializing as pure Primordial Qi.

Lu Xuan meticulously inspected the detailed status of the numerous Spirit Plants.

Just as he was employing the Nourishing through Spirit Rain Technique on the Origin Spirit Ginsengs, the gentle voice of Ge Pu came from outside the Cave Abode.

“Junior Brother Lu, are you in the Cave Abode? Your brother came to ask for a drink of Spirit Brew.”

“Brother Ge, I apologize for not greeting you from afar.”

“No matter, as long as the Spirit Brew is enough!”

Lu Xuan’s mouth curled upward, turning into a silver-white stream of light, and he went to the entrance of the Cave Abode to welcome Ge Pu inside.

The two came to a quiet pavilion and overlook a special sea of clouds condensed from countless Sword Qi, engaging in easy conversation.

“Brother Ge, why didn’t you call Senior Sister Wu Xia and Elder Brother Huo to gather as well?”

Lu Xuan asked with a smile.

“I wanted to, but Senior Sister Sword Flawless has been in seclusion for three years and hasn’t come out yet.”

“As for Junior Brother Huo, when I went to find him, I heard from the fellow disciples near his Cave Abode that he had gone to guard a damaged Blessed Land in another Realm.”

Ge Pu shook his head and sipped some Green Condensation Dew.

“Oh? Hasn’t Elder Brother Huo just broken through the Golden Core? Why didn’t he consolidate his foundation properly instead of rushing out in such a hurry?”

Lu Xuan showed a puzzled expression.

“Junior Brother Huo has his own ideas, I guess.”

“It may be that he expended a lot of resources during the Core Formation and wants to quickly make up for the shortage, or it could simply be a desire to earn more Sword Marks and contribute to the Sect.”

Ge Pu speculated.

“Regardless, it does seem a bit hasty.”

Lu Xuan gave a simple assessment, not quite understanding why Fire Scale Child was in such a rush to go and guard the Blessed Land.

“Impatience is somewhat understandable,”

a smile appeared on Ge Pu’s face.

“Back when we were in the Sky Sword Sect, Junior Brother Huo, Senior Sister Wu Xia, and I were all considered True Disciples, without distinction between us.”

“But after coming to the Sword Sect, both of us had already advanced to the Mid-term of Nascent Soul stage, while Junior Brother Huo expended a lot of effort and had only recently advanced to the Core Formation stage.”

“The gap between the few people who once had similar strengths has now widened so much;naturally, Junior Brother Huo wants to catch up quickly.”

“More importantly, there’s also an exceptional presence like you, Junior Brother Lu,”

Ge Pu, with his black and white eyes fixated on Lu Xuan, teased him.

“What does that have to do with me?”

Lu Xuan couldn’t help but be stunned.

“How is it not related?”

Ge Pu immediately responded.

“Junior Brother Huo might be inferior to us, but back in the Sky Sword Sect, Junior Brother Lu was only an Inner Sect Disciple proficient in Spirit Plant cultivation. Now, though, you have already reached the Cultivation Realm of the late Golden Core stage, creating a gap with Junior Brother Huo as wide as the heavens.”

“How could a once highly-regarded prodigy accept this? Not developing a Heart Demon is already a sign of strong will.”

As he spoke, Ge Pu’s tone unconsciously rose, showing that he was also putting himself in the same situation.

“Pure luck, I just focused all my thoughts on Spirit Plants, relying on the numerous benefits they brought me, and luckily achieved my current cultivation level.”

Lu Xuan said half-jokingly.

“No need to continue. Penalize yourself with three drinks!”

Ge Pu’s eyes, their black and white colors becoming more pronounced, interrupted Lu Xuan.

“All right, all right!”

Lu Xuan hurriedly agreed.

“Junior Brother Lu can rest assured, there’s no need to worry about Junior Brother Huo’s safety.”

“Guarding duties usually don’t pose much risk, and with Junior Brother Huo’s Fire Spirit Body and mastery in controlling fire, even though he has just advanced to Core Formation, his strength is not to be underestimated.”

“That’s for the best.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

“By the way, Junior Brother Lu, the nine Sword Peaks are soon to hold a grand competition, are you aware of it?”

Ge Pu changed the subject.

“The competition between the Sword Peaks, I’ve heard of it, but I’m not very clear about the details.”

Lu Xuan frowned slightly as he spoke.

“Every thirty years, the nine Sword Peaks hold a competition among themselves to maintain a steadfast and progressive mentality among the disciples, and to keep the Sect’s competitive strength robust.”

“Based on various comparisons, rankings are assigned to the nine Sword Peaks, and according to the rankings, different cultivation resources are distributed. Even a single rank difference might result in a resource gap that could cultivate a Primordial Infant True Monarch.”

Ge Pu spoke confidently.

“The competition among the Sword Peaks relies on fellow sword cultivators fighting each other. I’m a Spirit Plant Master, what excitement could I possibly join?”

Lu Xuan shook his head.

“You are not aware of this then,”

“Even a Spirit Plant Master plays a role in the competition that is not any less significant than those Sword Dao prodigies.”

“With Junior Brother Lu’s profound mastery in Spirit Plants, Spirit Brewing, and Talisman Making, you’ll definitely shine in this competition.”

“Perhaps, this was the main reason why the True Sword Master couldn’t wait to bring Junior Brother into Huanzhen Sword Peak.”

Ge Pu expressed his full confidence in Lu Xuan, speaking insistently.
