I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 455: Chapter 453 Sword Hall Authentic Teachings_1

After planting two new Saint Baby Fruit Spirit Seeds, Lu Xuan went to a corner of the courtyard.

In the corner, an ordinary-looking dark red stone was placed.

No one could imagine that this ordinary stone was nurturing a disaster-level Evil Flesh Spirit with the potential to reach the Nascent Soul level.

He took out a pile of flesh and blood from his storage bag and covered the dark red stone with it.

A terrifying aura flashed inside the stone, and all the accumulated flesh and blood around it instantly melted and disappeared as if it had never existed.

“The appetite of this Flesh Spirit for flesh and blood is truly terrifying.”

“Even in the incubation stage, it has consumed so much flesh and blood.”

Looking at the dark red stone in front of him, Lu Xuan felt somewhat worried.

In the Underworld Courtyard, both the Strange Longevity Peach and Thousand Worm Hands have a good appetite for Demon Beast’s Flesh and Blood. Now, with the addition of this hatched Evil Flesh Spirit, it would be difficult to sustain all three spirit plants simultaneously by normal means.

“I must find a way to increase resources.”

He thought to himself.

After taking care of all the spirit plants in the Underworld Courtyard, Lu Xuan returned to his original appearance and returned to the Sky Sword Sect.

With two days left before the Exchange Meeting mentioned by the Fire Scale Child, he went into the Spirit Field, performed the Earth Escape Skill, and went to the place with the Two-headed Juveniles. He completely cleaned up the Wu Spirit Soil they had slowly collected over the years.

After that, he took the Wu Spirit Soil and the Heart Ape Fruit to the Incomplete Secret Realm.

The spiritual power in the secret realm is pure and more suitable for the growth of spirit plants than the Ten Thousand Beast Cave. Also, with the Wu Spirit Soil and the Spirit Ganling, planting the Fifth Rank Heart Ape Fruit in the secret realm will promote its growth.

Lu Xuan checked the various spirit plants in the secret realm. Although the Flaming Fruit and Ice Luo Fruit were not cultivated at all times, their growth progress was quite good and they had entered the mature stage.

The Sword Nurturing Gourd benefited from the nourishment of the aura of second-hand flying swords and its growth was only slightly slower than that of the Flaming Fruit, also entering the mature stage.

Lu Xuan could almost see a large number of Fourth Grade Sword Symbols being nurtured inside the gourds, which were dark green and mottled, and filled with intense sword qi.

After returning from the Incomplete Secret Realm, he stayed in the Sect Cave Mansion, cultivating numerous spirit plants while waiting for the Exchange Meeting to begin.

Two days later, he arrived at the location specified by the Fire Scale Child on time.

“Junior Brother Lu, welcome, let me introduce you, this is Brother Bai Feiyu, one of the sect’s authentic teachings. His Sword Dao skills have reached a state of mastery and under his sword, countless Evil Spirit cultivators have perished. This Exchange Meeting was mainly organized by him and me.”

Seeing Lu Xuan, the Fire Scale Child wearing a fiery red robe greeted him with an eager smile and introduced a young cultivator next to him.

The cultivator was handsome and refined, seeming otherworldly. A pure white scabbard hung from his waist, and the hilt of the flying sword inside the scabbard seemed to be made of the bones of a Flood Dragon.

The moment Lu Xuan felt the aura of the Flood Dragon Flying Sword, an intense vibration came from the Ancient Sword Sheath around his waist, as if it had seen its dream lover.

“Damn sword, is it not enough with the countless flying swords you have? You’ve filled yourself with flying swords and yet you’re still thinking about others.”

Lu Xuan cursed in his heart and sent a thought to the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath.

“Hello, Brother Bai.”

He greeted the young Sword Cultivator.

“Junior Brother Lu, since I’ve returned to the sect, I’ve heard of you more than once.”

A smile emerged from the corner of the young man’s mouth.

“Being both disciples of the Sword Hall, I have been attending to affairs outside the sect in recent years. When I returned to the hall a while ago, I learned that Junior Brother Lu, you have single-handedly developed a method for condensing third-grade sword grass. I greatly admire you for that, ” the man confessed.

“So, it turns out to be Senior Brother Bai from Sword Hall.”

As Lu Xuan responded with a warm smile, he quietly marveled at the fact that the Sword Hall truly deserved its reputation as the strongest division within the sect. Of all the authentic practitioners he had met, both Sword Wu Xia and Bai Feiyu, who stood before him, were disciples of the Sword Hall.

“Please come in, Junior Brother Lu, I hope you can find the treasure you want.”

Bai Feiyu and his company led Lu Xuan into a luxurious hall.

On the floor of the hall laid third-grade Tiger Beast fur, nearly a hundred white jade stone chairs were arranged tastefully. Hanging from the hall’s ceiling were dozens of luminous pearls brimming with spiritual energy and dazzling light. More than a dozen graceful female cultivators were constantly moving around, each carrying spiritual fruits and spiritual tea.

Lu Xuan looked around and intentionally chose a quiet corner. freёnovelkiss.com

As soon as he settled down, he noticed Zhong Jing Shan also hiding in the corner. After a brief mutual greeting, they each retreated into their own worlds.

Although he desired to stay quietly in the corner, things didn’t go as he wished.

Given his reputation in the field of spiritual plants and his accomplishments in the Sword Hall, cultivators flocked towards him to express their greetings and engage in discussions.

Those who approached were familiar faces: a small circle of Spirit Plant Masters led by Liu Su, disciples from the Sword Hall, fellow sect members he had met while exploring new Blessed Lands, and even unknown cultivators who observed the scene decided to introduce themselves to Lu Xuan.

While handling these interactions superficially, Lu Xuan remained composed as he observed a bigger crowd surrounding the seldom-spoken Zhong Jing Shan.

Lu Xuan was secretly observing the Inner Sect cultivators who entered the hall in succession.

Among the people present, there were five authentic practitioners: Sword Wu Xia, who had the Innate Sword Body, Zhong Jing Shan who excelled at controlling insects, Fire Scale Child who possessed the Fire Spirit Body, Bai Feiyu who he had recently met and a stranger who was an authentic practitioner too.

The remaining people included more than ten cultivators in the late stages of Foundation Establishment, with a perfect state of cultivation, and dozens in the early and middle periods of Foundation Establishment. It alone was a grandiose group.

Soon, a streak of red light flashed across, and the Fire Scale Child appeared at the front of the hall.

“Fellow sect members, welcome to the Grand Exchange Event organized by me and Brother Bai Feiyu.”

“The purpose of this exchange event is to provide a platform for all sect members to trade treasures, exchange experiences of cultivation, get to know each other, and so on.”

“The exchange event will be divided into two parts. The first part is designated exchanges, in which sect members can display their treasures and put forward their exchange requirements. You can choose whether to exchange within a certain time.”

“The second part is open for free exchanges, where many sect members can come together, get what they want, and swap their favourite treasures.”

“There is only one rule for this exchange event: don’t oppress under the cloak of authority. No forcing sales or purchases. If anyone disregards this rule and forgets the bonds of kinship, don’t blame me and Brother Bai for being impolite.”

The Fire Scale Child’s youthful face was serious, and waves of fire lotuses surged from his robe.

“Alright, let’s begin the exchange.”

After leaving this sentence behind, he jumped off the stage.

A few breaths later, a figure streaked quickly onto the stage.

A middle-aged cultivator with late-term Foundation Establishment cultivation cupped his hands towards Lu Xuan and the others seated below the stage.

“Dear older brothers and sisters, younger brothers and sisters, I will be the one to cast the first stone today, initiating the treasure exchange.”

As soon as his words ended, a peculiarly shaped flying sword appeared in front of him.

The flying sword was about three feet long, with a clear and thin blade that looked like a spine. A cold aura enveloped it, causing a thin layer of white mist to form around the sword.

“This is a fourth-grade flying sword named Cold Bone Sword. It is forged using the bones of a fourth-grade demon beast – the Cold Xuan Drake. All its moves trigger an extreme cold aura, making it highly lethal in attacks.”

“It can be exchanged for a defensive magical instrument of the same grade, or the same grade elixir that can enhance cultivation.”
