I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 450: Chapter 448: You’re Using This to Test a Tier 6 Spirit Beast?_1

“Eh, why does this cub have so many tiny blood threads mixed in the golden light covering its body?”

“This doesn’t align with the knowledge I gained from the Beast Mastery Canon.”

The ordinary-looking young man noticed something unusual on the cub’s body and couldn’t help voicing his concern.

“The cub’s vitality seems fine, there shouldn’t be a problem.”

Lu Xuan comforted him.

“Perhaps the blood threads are a symptom of the mother’s difficult labor. This cub could potentially be a different species of Spirit Beast.”

He guessed, without sharing the information he had discovered with Sun Yun and the others.

After all, the discovery of strange factors around the Forbidden Land of Blessings through a Spirit Beast in labor was too unbelievable. It was better to remain low-profile.

They carefully examined the cub, and only then did they feel relieved.

“Thank goodness Brother Lu stepped in today and managed to save her and the cub.”

“If anything had happened to either of them, it would have been my responsibility.”

The ordinary young man went over to Lu Xuan, expressing his gratefulness earnestly.

A look of admiration appeared on Sun Yun’s face. He now understood why True Man Cang Wu handed over control of the Blessed Land to Lu Xuan.

He had been at a loss when faced with the Spirit Beast in labor, uncertain whether he could save both of them, whereas Lu Xuan, skilled and fearless, handled everything effortlessly, protecting both mother and cub without injuring either.

The gap between them was quite evident.

With this in mind, the resentment in his heart vanished instantly.

“Junior Brother, there’s no need for formalities. Since I hold the Beast Owning Order, it’s my responsibility to ensure the Spirit Beasts in the Ten Thousand Beast Cave grow healthily. It’s part of my job.”

Lu Xuan said solemnly.

“Brother Lu, I was suspicious of you before, suspecting you obtained the Beast Owning Order because of your relationship with the Senior Brother of Authentic Teachings.”

“Today I realized that you have deep knowledge of Spirit Beasts and acquired the Beast Owning Order through your own abilities. I am convinced.”

Sun Yun took a step forward and explained.

“Brother Sun, you’re being too serious. As long as we clear up our misunderstandings, that’s great. I hope you’ll take care of me in the future.”

Since Sun Yun had admitted his faults, Lu Xuan didn’t intend to give him a hard time further and conveyed his goodwill.

The two stayed behind to observe the mother and cub, while Lu Xuan returned to the Cloud House.

After this small incident, Sun Yun and the others, who stayed in the Blessed Land to raise the many Spirit Beasts, had obviously changed their attitudes towards him.

They would greet him warmly when they saw him and occasionally reported to Lu Xuan about the Spirit Beasts in the Blessed Land.

After inspecting the Blessed Land each day, Lu Xuan would visit the mountain where Little White Ape was, play with the White Ape and the Luan bird, or go to the lakeside and listen to the Old Dragon Turtle’s gossip.

He didn’t know how the Old Turtle could remember so many things, but it was interesting and varied information, even involving other Sects.

Today, after the Old Dragon Turtle had finished sharing its gossip, Lu Xuan tactfully offered it the Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice.

The Old Dragon Turtle nodded, looking satisfied.

“Senior, have you been staying in the Sect all these years?”

Lu Xuan asked curiously.

“I haven’t left the Sect for about two thousand years.”

The Dragon Turtle reminisced.

“You saw the hexagram on my back, it’s closely related to the Sect Guarding Formation. Thus, I can’t leave like the other Spirit Beasts.”

There was a hint of regret in its eyes, nearly undetectable.

“So… are there any of your kind in the Blessed Land?”

“Do you think Dragon Turtles are common?”

The Dragon Turtle’s long whiskers attached to its chin raised up high, speaking proudly.

“So you’ve been a bachelor for thousands of years?”

Lu Xuan thought from another perspective.

Having spent a long time with the Dragon Turtle, he had a favorable impression of this Grade Six Spirit Beast that had lived for thousands of years. They felt like age-old friends, and he spoke without any reservation.

“What is love to a Cultivator like me? It’s merely trivial.”

It shook its head and looked at Lu Xuan, the lines on its tortoise shell moving, teasing him with a laugh.

“You think I couldn’t tell you’re still a virgin?”

“…”

“I’ve been focused on Spirit Plants and haven’t had time for love.”

Lu Xuan laughed awkwardly.

“Besides, there’s a big difference between being single for a few decades and a few thousand years.”

The Old Dragon Turtle silently fixed its eyes on Lu Xuan, laughing without saying a word.

“Don’t look at me like that. I’m trying to think of a solution for you!”

Lu Xuan asserted confidently.

“Senior, have you thought about finding a female Dragon Turtle in the past thousand years?”

“It’s not that simple, the Dragon Turtle lineage is extremely rare. I haven’t heard of any of my kind here.”

“What if you lower your standards a bit and look for other Spirit Beasts with True Dragon Bloodlines, like the Flood Dragons in Thousand Dragon Lake, or other species of turtles?”

Lu Xuan tested, hoping to resolve the loneliness within the centuries-old Dragon Turtle.

“Kid Lu, I appreciate your kindness. But those aren’t my kind. I’m quite okay with my current situation.”

The Old Dragon Turtle slowly spoke.

“If it truly doesn’t work, I guess we have to resort to mental consolation.”

Lu Xuan saw that the Old Dragon Turtle wasn’t interested in making friends from other species and contemplated in his heart.

“Senior, during an outing, I accidentally dealt with an Evil Cultivator and obtained a strange jade quilt named the Ecstasy Heart Sutra.”

“As long as you open it, you can see scenes of your own kind mating. The scenario is dynamic, and every time you open it, the environment, characters, and positions differ.”

“If you feel bored, you can have a look.”

“Although the female Dragon Turtle in there is intangible, at least there’s some spiritual connection.”

He decided to give this Grade Six Elder Dragon Turtle a bit of extreme happiness.

“Outrageous!”

The long whiskers of the Old Dragon Turtle fluttered upwards in indignation.

“And you’re testing a Sixth-grade Sect Guardian Spirit Beast with this?”

“I certainly will not look at that kind of thing. Yet from your description, the Sutra must be a wicked object. It’s too much for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator like you to handle, it’s better to give it to me.”

The Dragon Turtle answered righteously.

“My negligence indeed. Holding onto this wicked object for such a long time, it’s about time to dedicate it to you for a severe critique!”

Lu Xuan immediately understood, took out a musty yellow jade quilt from his Storage bag, gently floated it in front of the Dragon Turtle.

The Dragon Turtle nodded in satisfaction.

“I suddenly remembered that I haven’t cultivated seriously today. A Cultivator’s life is long and I mustn’t fall behind, you should leave.”

“Understood. I won’t disturb your cultivation, Senior. Excuse me.”

Lu Xuan understood his intentions and immediately responded.

Both Lu Xuan and the Spirit Beast had a mysterious smile on their faces.
