You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 117
Chapter 117
Within the Spirit Field.
All sorts of spirit plants were thriving splendidly.
The third-grade Illusory Smoke Fruit's shroud of mist expanded gradually, thankfully Lu Xuan had left enough space for it in advance, avoiding any impact on the surrounding spirit plants.
The glossy black vines of the Dragonvine were adorned with bewitching red and green patterns, resembling a sinister snake lurking in the shadows.
The second-grade Flowing Light Wood and Yin Locust Tree, acquired from the Agricultural Hall, had shown considerable growth during this period. The semi-transparent spiritual threads on the Flowing Light Wood increased significantly, requiring much effort from Lu Xuan to guide them properly.
Within the cave where the Yin Locust Tree grew, the Yin energy grew heavier, emitting a distinct chill upon entry.
The sections of the Copper Bone Bamboo continued to grow taller, their colors deepening.
Twenty-eight Blood Jade Ginseng plants obtained through the consolidation method also thrived, reassuring Lu Xuan about his skill in refining spirit plants.
The Firefly Grass had reached a stage of substantial maturity, and Lu Xuan meticulously inspected each blade, harvesting thirty fully matured strands.
Among these, seven were of good quality, fifteen were of superior quality, and the remaining eight were of perfect quality.
At this point, out of the two hundred Firefly Grass plants, a hundred and sixteen remained. Lu Xuan had no intention of harvesting all of them, planning to reserve a portion for refining the Firefly Grass spirit seeds.
After the harvest, thirty faintly shimmering white orbs appeared.
One by one, Lu Xuan absorbed them, each reward flashing through his mind like a carousel.
The orbs provided him with nearly seven years' worth of cultivation. A massive influx of spiritual energy surged into Lu Xuan's body, raging wildly between his meridians and dantian.
"I've reached this point solely through my own efforts!"
"Orbs, boost my cultivation!"
Lu Xuan silently commanded within his mind.
Once the turmoil subsided, Lu Xuan sensed a subtle breakthrough, surpassing a mysterious barrier, elevating his cultivation to the ninth level of Qi Cultivation.
"The ninth level of Qi Cultivation..."
"What comes next is accumulating cultivation diligently and increasing the possibility of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm."
Lu Xuan was filled with myriad emotions. In just two and a half years, his cultivation had skyrocketed like riding a rocket, leaping from the second level of Qi Cultivation to the ninth. Even the previously seemingly distant Foundation Establishment realm didn't appear too far off.
"With my own talent, background, and resources, it might have taken me at least two and a half years to break through to the third level of Qi Cultivation, let alone the middle or high tiers."
He thought to himself, feeling immensely fortunate to have obtained the white orbsa stroke of enormous luck.
After settling his thoughts, Lu Xuan approached three second-grade Clear Spirit Tea plants.
On the old roots, there were still fourteen tender and verdant tea leaves emitting a refreshing fragrance.
"Another four leaves of fully matured Clear Spirit Tea. Hehe, second-grade spirit plants."
Lu Xuan chuckled softly and plucked the four matured Clear Spirit Tea leaves.
Among them, three were of good quality, while one was of superior quality.
He picked up the white orbs that appeared at the spots where he harvested the tea leaves.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind.
"[Harvested one leaf of Clear Spirit Tea and obtained two third-grade Dust-Reducing Pills.]" *2
Two round and fragrant Dust-Reducing Pills appeared in his palm.
Lu Xuan carefully stowed them away in his storage bag, alongside the Dust-Reducing Pills he had obtained earlier.
"[Harvested one leaf of Clear Spirit Tea and obtained a third-grade Purifying Talisman.]"
Still a third-grade Purifying Talisman with powerful effects against sinister entities.
The white orb from the last superior-quality tea leaf brought anticipation to Lu Xuan.
"[Harvested one leaf of Clear Spirit Tea and obtained a third-grade cultivation method, 'Lustrous Bone Forging Technique' (Upper).]"
Thoughts raced through his mind as a wealth of information flooded into Lu Xuan's consciousnessdetails about the cultivation method at the Qi Cultivation stage, tips, experiences, and more concerning the 'Lustrous Bone Forging Technique.'
It felt as if Lu Xuan had been practicing this technique for years; his bones subtly underwent changes, expelling impurities from his limbs and bones.
Viewing his bones with his spiritual awareness, Lu Xuan noticed they appeared like translucent white jade, clear and crystalline, with significantly increased hardness.
"Why is it the Upper level 'Lustrous Bone Forging Technique' again..."
Lu Xuan glanced at the remaining eleven Clear Spirit Tea leaves, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.
Even though he gained a bundle of experience for this technique, saving him a considerable amount of training time, Lu Xuan desired the Lower level 'Lustrous Bone Forging Technique' more.
With a hint of regret, Lu Xuan surveyed the Spirit Field, meticulously fulfilling the subtle requirements of each spirit plant by alternating between Spirit Rain, Earth Attraction, Wood Growth, and other techniques, striving to meet their every need.
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye, and there wasn't much time left until the mealtime of the Flood Dragon beast. Lu Xuan rented a spirit crane and shortly arrived at his base, where he raised the Flood Dragon beast.
Taking the specially prepared meat from the cultivator who handled the beast's meat, Lu Xuan ascended to the elevated platform.
Below the platform, the lake's surface was populated by dozens of Flood Dragons and giant pythons, arranged neatly. The moment they saw Lu Xuan's figure, their thick, long tails swayed gently, displaying great excitement.
"Time for dinner, everyone! Don't rush, I promise you'll all eat well and be satisfied!"
Lu Xuan wielded his spiritual power to pick up a chunk of beast meat and tossed it into the designated areas where the Flood Dragons and pythons resided.
The numerous Flood Dragons, giant pythons, and strange serpents were already accustomed to the new feeding method, leisurely enjoying the delicious beast meat.
Occasionally, a hint of ferocity appeared in their eyes, but as soon as they caught sight of Lu Xuan standing high above them, it quickly dissipated.
"Roar, Roar!"
Just as Lu Xuan was about to leave, a strange fiery red serpent hadn't moved away; it remained in its designated area, whimpering softly, conveying a sense of pleading in its voice.
"Hmm?"
Lu Xuan halted his steps, bending down to carefully observe the serpent's body below.
Upon seeing Lu Xuan's attention, the serpent flipped its belly up, revealing a massive, deep-to-the-bone wound on its stomach, the exposed flesh and skin indicating intense pain.
"Injured?"
Lu Xuan asked with concern.
The second-grade strange serpent seemed to understand his inquiry, enduring the pain to gently nod its head.
"Was it a companion while dining?"
Lu Xuan's eyes held a trace of coldness.
"Roar..."
The fiery red strange serpent hurriedly shook its head, denying it.
"It seems to have been the other cultivators' Flood Dragons and serpents in the nearby areas
."
Seeing that it wasn't caused by his own nurtured creatures, Lu Xuan felt somewhat relieved.
The Thousand Dragon Lake spanned hundreds of miles, where first and second-grade Flood Dragons and giant pythons lived without distinct territorial boundaries, each finding their own water area to inhabit.
Hence, occasional conflicts and resource competition among them occurred. This second-grade strange serpent had likely been defeated while contending with other cultivators' nurtured Flood Dragons and serpents.
"You, unable to even win in a fight with your own kind?"
"With so many friendly companions around, peacefully sharing meals, didn't you think of rallying them to deal with it?"
Lu Xuan's tone carried a strong sense of indignation as he descended from the high platform, arriving near the serpent's wounded belly.
He gently floated on the lake's surface, retrieving a second-grade healing ointment, the Pure Snow Lotus, from his storage baga product from the Clear Snow Lotus he had previously cultivated.
Taking a small portion, he carefully applied it to the fiery red serpent's wound.
"It seems necessary to unify the thinking of these Flood Dragons and pythons, so they stop fighting among themselves."
Lu Xuan thought to himself as he applied the ointment.
