I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 373 - 371: Strange Spirit Plant_i
Chapter 373: Chapter 371: Strange Spirit Plant_i
“Oh? What do you mean by that, Junior Brother Lu? Can cultivation level also be faked?”
A look of confusion appeared on the face of the middle-aged scholar.
“Of course, cultivation can’t be faked, but the difference within the same mid-term Foundation Establishment is not small.”
Lu Xuan gently shook his head.
“Elder Brother Yang should know me quite well. I spend most of my time with spiritual plants and seldom leave the Sect, let alone venture into secret lands and hunt demon beasts and demon envoys.”
Yang Qingfeng nodded, agreeing with him.
He had known Lu Xuan for many years, and whenever they met, it was always related to spiritual plants and beasts. On the rare occasion when he invited Lu Xuan to explore a particular secret land, Lu Xuan would always politely refuse. He was only aware that Lu Xuan was extremely accomplished in the path of spiritual plants, not inferior to those mid to late-term Foundation Establishment Disciples and True Disciples within the Sect.
“I have some talent for cultivating spiritual plants and find great interest in it. Over the years, I earned quite a bit of spirit stones and sword marks.”
“However, I have spent almost all the spirit stones and sword marks on purchasing elixirs to increase my spiritual power, leaving very little.” “I only managed to advance to the mid-term Foundation Establishment by constantly consuming various elixirs along with my hard cultivation.”

However, this method has its advantages and disadvantages, the advantage is the faster advancement in cultivation level, but the drawback is that I have mastered little in the way of proper magical techniques and don’t have a decent magic artifact or talisman. That’s why I meant I’m hollow on the inside.”
“If I were to encounter a cultivator at the beginning of Foundation Establishment, I might not be their match.”
Lu Xuan made up a quite plausible excuse for himself with no signs of embarrassment or nervousness.
“If one lacks combat techniques, they can only rely on suppressing the enemy with their cultivation realm.”
The middle-aged scholar thought for a while and finally said euphemistically. “So, this is why I seldom explore. It’s completely due to my awareness of myself.”
“But being able to stay in the sect all the time is quite nice. I am very content to have a stable environment for cultivating spiritual plants.”
“After breaking through to the mid-term Foundation Establishment, the spiritual liquid in my Dantian has increased a lot, which can be used to cultivate higher-grade spiritual plants in larger quantities.”
Lu Xuan laughed.
However, Yang Qingfeng took his laughter as a bitter smile of helplessness and comforted him:
“Indeed, many outer Sect Disciples within the Sect cannot break through to the Foundation Establishment realm. Many Inner Sect Disciples, even after making the breakthrough by luck, remain at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Junior Brother Lu, you have made a further breakthrough to the mid-term Foundation Establishment, exceeding many of your peers.” “Regardless of the method used to break through, the level of spiritual power is real. If you practice your techniques and compete for treasures in the future, it will be much easier.”
“Haha, let’s talk about the future later. Perhaps one day, I might get a stroke of luck and obtain many opportunities.”
“Elder Brother, take me to see those Ink-Scaled Jiaos.”
Lu Xuan suggested.
The two men went to the edge of the island, and Yang Qingfeng summoned the family of playful Ink-Scaled Jiaos from a distance.
Lu Xuan looked at the happy family of Ink-Scaled Jiaos, a hint of inexplicable smile appeared on his face.
Then, he took out the blood drawing tool, the Red Threaded Needle, from his storage bag, and with a thought, a tiny red light instantly entered the relaxed belly of the Ink-Scaled Jiao.
“This mixed-blood abnormal Ink-Scaled Jiao indeed looks extraordinary.” While extracting blood from the Ink-Scaled Jiao mixed with the bloodline of the Qingmiao Chi Dragon, Lu Xuan noticed something extraordinary about it. As the Ink-Scaled Jiao grew, the inherent bloodline of the Qingmiao Chi Dragon in its body gradually woke up. This cloaked the Ink-Scaled Jiao in a faint aura of purity. Any ordinary impure substances or anomalies approaching it will presumably be directly purged by this aura.
“Such fine blood must be put to good use. When the time is right, it can be used to cultivate a fifth rank Blood Scourge Flower.”
Lu Xuan secretly thought to himself and held onto the jade bottle that had collected the Flood Dragon Essence Blood for a few more breaths, thereby drawing almost half a bottle of blood.
This amount of essence blood means nothing to the huge Ink-Scaled Jiao (Dragon Serpent). Yang Qing Feng, who was standing nearby, did not notice Lu Xuan’s small action either.
After drawing and checking the blood from all of the Jiaolong and Chilong, Lu Xuan stayed on the small island and exchanged insights and cultivation experience with Yang Qing Feng.
Just as he was about to activate the Flowing Light Formation after returning to his cave house, Lu Xuan’s movements came to a halt.
A weird-looking insect wafted into his view.
The odd insect, with five short and three thick body parts, had a huge pupil occupying a large portion of its head, and it stared at Lu Xuan without blinking. In less than half a moment, two figures arrived together.
One had an ethereal aura, his pair of eyes colored one black and one white. The other one, clad in a robe made from weaving numerous slender insects, appeared somewhat woodenly reticent in appearance.
They were two authentic disciples that Lu Xuan recognized – Ge Pu who raised Yin-Yang Koi Fish and Zhong Jing Shan who was skilled in controlling insects. “Junior Brother Lu, I left you a communication talisman. Since we didn’t receive any news, we asked Brother Seed to keep an eye on the outside of your cave house, and we would know immediately once you arrived,” Ge Pu explained the previous situation to Lu Xuan.
“Elder Brothers, please enter and have a seat.”
Lu Xuan invited the two into his cave house and served Spiritual Fruit Spiritual Tea.
Zhong Jing Shan looked around the room without showing any expression.
Lu Xuan knew that he was looking for the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect with a special constitution. As a thought flashed in his mind, the larva suddenly burrowed out and fluttered beside Lu Xuan’s feet.
It seemed to have smelled something and turned its head towards Zhong Jing Shan’s direction for a sniff, yet it still stayed beside Lu Xuan.
Both of them had raised it for roughly the same duration of time. However, with Lu Xuan, it could easily dispel the toxin after swallowing poisonous substances, which was much more comfortable than being in Insect Valley.
Brother Seed, this larva is doing quite well with me, and there haven’t been any life-threatening incidents.”
Lu Xuan took the initiative to explain, not worried that Zhong Jing Shan would want to take the larvae back.
As expected, Zhong Jing Shan nodded, showing his reassurance.
“You’ve taken good care of it.”
He probably knew about the special constitution of the Hundred Poison Heart Devouring Insect larva and that he could not maintain the larva’s life under various harmful reactions, so he had no choice but to send it to Lu Xuan for treatment.
Now, seeing the larva living well, he was relieved and had no other thoughts.
“Junior Brother Lu, the taste of the spiritual juice you brewed is indeed unique.
I will ask for a bottle later.”
Ge Pu praised after sipping a mouthful of the Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice.
“Both of you can take a bottle of Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice later; I still have some here.”
Lu Xuan quickly replied.
Ge Pu thanked him, then his expression got serious and he took out a spiritual plant from his storage bag.
It was an extremely strange spiritual plant. Its unevenly long roots squirmed like limbs, with large and small gaps growing on the trunk. All around the gaps edge were sharp sawteeth, while its branches and leaves continually waved in the air, trying to break through Ge Pu’s spiritual aura barrier and hit him.
“Junior Brother Lu, you are an expert in the path of spiritual plants, how do you think this spiritual plant is?”
He lifted up the weird spiritual plant and asked Lu Xuan.
“It’s a bit weird, it has such a strong vitality and attack power, as if it isn’t a spiritual plant, but a demon beast.”
Lu Xuan furrowed his brows and said slowly..
