I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

With a heart filled with blessing, Lu Xuan naturally started to move the Purple Lightning Sword in his hand.

Between the crossing of sword Qi, a misty drizzle quietly appears around him, like smoke and fog, continuous and unending.

It seems ordinary, but in reality, it is countless Spring Rain Sword Qi condensed together. With a single thought from Lu Xuan, it could instantly burst out with formidable lethality.

The Purple Lightning Sword, with its deep purple blade possesses the Power of thunder and lightning. In the continuous spring rain, occasional lightning flashes, bringing a natural harmony and rhythm.

After briefly sensing the amplification of his sword technique by the Spring Rain Sword Intent, Lu Xuan was about to put away the Purple Lightning Sword when he caught a glimpse of the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath hanging on his waist.

“I wonder what effect will it have if the Spring Rain Sword Intent is injected into the sword sheath for nourishing…”

Lu Xuan suddenly had a whimsical idea, and let a part of the drizzle Sword Qi fall, penetrating into the slit of the sword sheath.

“Just like this?”

It seemed like Lu Xuan could sense the thoughts of the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath. The thin as a hair Spring Rain Sword Qi was hardly noticeable to the sheath, which had already transformed into the shape of the Purple Lightning Sword.

After injecting enough Spring Rain Sword Qi, Lu Xuan sent his Spiritual Sense into the interior of the sword sheath.

There was a moist scent pervading all around.

He chuckled and thrust the Purple Lightning Sword forcefully into the sheath.

It slid in smoothly without any obstructions.

“Very smooth.”

Lu Xuan simply assessed.

Deep within the sheath, after being moistened with enough Spring Rain Sword Intent, the Purple Lightning Sword was stuck in a mire-like environment, unable to pull the curved blade out.

The two Grade Sword Grass that he had harvested for now, he intended to keep temporarily in the Storage Bag. He planned to hand them over to Shen Ye at the Sword Hall after the remaining sword grass all matured.

In order to ensure the maximisation of the Light Cluster reward, he intended to harvest each stalk of sword grass only after they fully matured.

As for the other cultivators cultivating the Sword Grass, they couldn’t know the best time when the sword grass matures. They could only rely on their experience and sense through Spiritual Sense, guessing when it entered the mature period, harvesting them all in one go and turning them in batches to the Sword Hall.

Lu Xuan predicted that it wouldn’t be long before the eight two-grade sword grass would mature one by one, so he wasn’t in a hurry to harvest them.

“That’s right, I promised Baili Jianqing before to give him a Sword Grass, I wonder how he’s been doing recently.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself in secret, planning to take the opportunity to visit his old friend.

He continued to patrol the Spirit Fields, arriving at the place where the Sword Nurturing Gourds were planted.

On the vines hung two green marbled gourds. From inside the gourds faintly transmitted the sound of sword Qi agitating, as if at any moment, powerful Sword Qi would pierce through the gourds and burst out.

“Another one has matured.”

Lu Xuan noticed a Sword Nurturing Gourd at a lower position has fully matured, so he carefully picked it.

As soon as the gourd was picked, a white Light Cluster quietly hung on the vine, flickering slightly, attracting Lu Xuan to come and pick it up.

Lu Xuan stretched out his hand and gently touched it. The white Light Cluster turned into countless tiny light swords, all rushing into his body at once. Immediately after, a thought appeared in his mind.

[Harvested one third-grade Sword Nurturing Gourd, obtained the fourth-grade Great Sun Sword Charm.]

A talisman with a red sun hanging in the center appeared in Lu Xuan’s palm.

Countless scarlet Sword Qi diffused from the red sun as the center, spreading in all directions, densely packed, as if the sunlight was illuminating the whole world.

The talisman was the fourth grade Great Sun Sword Charm he had obtained before, which contained endless Great Sun Sword Qi. When activated, it was like the midday sun in the sky, stunning the soul. If you looked at it directly without care, you would end up blinding your eyes.

It has the same ability to severely injure and even kill cultivators at the mid-to- late foundation establishment level. But its potency was slightly stronger than the Roaring Sea Sword Charm.

“Four Sword Nurturing Gourds have yielded four Fourth Grade Sword Symbols, two Roaring Sea Sword Charms and two Great Sun Sword Charms. One of the Roaring Sea Sword Charms has used up most of its Sword Qi in the Langyue Blessed Land.”

The Fourth Grade Sword Symbols are currently his most powerful means of attack. After some thought, Lu Xuan decided to cultivate a few more Sword Nurturing Gourds.

A single Gourd Vine can yield several Sword Nurturing Gourds. Not to mention the value of the gourds themselves, the Sword Charms rewarded by the Light Clusters alone are worth him planting them again.

He carefully cultivated the Spirit Fields around the mountain and, seeing that it was still early, decided to buy a few Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seeds from the Agricultural Department Hall.

He also solved the problem of not choosing the Spirit Seed Condensing Method when promoting to Foundation Establishment.

At that time, he could freely choose a Spirit Seed Condensing Method for a third-grade spirit species and three second-level spirit species.

As for the Spirit Seed Condensing Method of the third-grade spirit species, although he is quite satisfied with the Sword Nurturing Gourd, he decided to see if there are any other species with more generous rewards.

For the second grade, he has already decided on two of them, the Flaming Fruit and Ice Luo Fruit planted on the mountain.

The two second-level spiritual fruits, the Light Cluster rewards yielded when they mature are quite generous, and the number of spiritual fruits each Spirit Tree bears is not small. Of course, the main reason is that both types of spiritual fruit have their own unique taste, and eating them together has a complementary effect.

In order to satisfy his own appetite and to serve the Mystical Sky White Luan and White Jade Sky Monkey better, it was only logical to choose these two types of spirit fruit’s Spirit Seed Condensing Method.

Agricultural Department Hall.

In the spacious exterior hall, Lu Xuan took a glance around but didn’t see the Old Farmer Monk with whom he had previously met many times.

Therefore, without any hesitation, he entered the inner hall under the curious and respectful gazes of many Outer Sect Disciples.

Only Inner Sect Disciples are eligible to enter the inner hall.

He looked around and came to a cultivator with an ordinary appearance and a reclusive, steady temperament.

He had some impression of this person. His name was Zhang Ce. He just became promoted to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and when he entered the inner hall, it was him who hosted him.

“Elder Brother Zhang.”

“Junior Brother Lu? It’s been a long time.”

The young man looked up when he heard the voice, looked at Lu Xuan, there was a trace of bewilderment in his eyes, but he immediately remembered Lu Xuan whom he had met a long time ago.

“It’s been a long time. Your cultivation level has become more exquisite.”

“Haha, you’re praising me too much, Junior Brother. What business do you have in the Agricultural Department Hall this time?”

“I want to buy a few third-grade Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seeds, and also, I want to choose the Spirit Seed Refining Methods of two second-level spirit plants, the Flaming Fruit and the Ice Luo Fruit.”

“After being promoted to the Inner Sect Disciple, I have always kept this sect benefit. These days, I made a decision.”

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

“Okay, Junior Brother Lu, please show me your identity token. I need to confirm whether you are eligible.”

The steady and calm youth said gently.

Lu Xuan took out his identity token and gave it to the steady cultivator.

Regarding the Spirit Seed Refining Method, the steady young monk didn’t dare to be the slightest bit careless. He confirmed it three times before returning the identity token to Lu Xuan and going deep into the Agricultural Department Hall.

“Junior Brother Lu, these two Jade Slips contain the Spirit Seed Refining Methods you requested. After absorption, the Jade Slips will turn into dust. Please be careful when you use them.”

Zhang Ce instructed Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan nodded heavily. He spent 270 Sword Marks and exchanged them for three Sword Nurturing Gourd Spirit Seeds from the young man.

The Gourd Spirit Seed was light green, elongated and flat, about an inch and a half long, at first glance, it looked like three miniature swords.

“Thankyou, Elder Brother Zhang.”

After confirming there was no mistake, Lu Xuan gratefully bowed to the steady young monk and then left the Agricultural Department Hall.
