I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

The Sixth Grade Spirit Seed within that Cave Heaven was still in the incubation phase, with some uncertainty remaining about its successful Condensation.

Zhang Jiuzong originally had no intention of informing Lu Xuan, but after seeing his attitude towards the Commerce Association’s Spiritual Plants, he changed his mind and decided to do his best to fight for Lu Xuan’s cause.

"Good! I hope Lu Mou will have the opportunity to cultivate the rare Sixth Grade Spirit Seed mentioned by Friend Zhang, and contribute my modest efforts to the Commerce Association."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan quickly affirmed.

In his current Cave Abode, there were already more than ten varieties of sixth-grade Spiritual Plants, all of which had been collected with great difficulty. To obtain one easily would naturally be ideal.

Moreover, according to Zhang Jiuzong, this Sixth Grade Spirit Seed should be similar to the existence of the Upside-Down Yin and Yang Fruit, which meant the Light Cluster reward from harvesting it would be even more generous.

The two chatted for a moment, and without a lengthy stay, Zhang Jiuzong took his leave.

Lu Xuan watched his figure disappear amidst the fine thunderous glow, then returned to his Cave Abode.

Gently removing the stopper from the White Jade Thin Neck Bottle, he released a seal of Prohibitions and Restrictions on it. Under the control of his Spiritual Sense, a drop of pale white Spiritual Liquid slowly floated out from it.

The pale white Spiritual Liquid hovered in midair, its shape constantly changing, as if mirroring the waxing and waning of the moon’s palace. The faint silver radiance rippled out like ripples, its lush vitality rushing straight towards Lu Xuan’s seven apertures.

"As expected of the Fifth Grade Spirit Liquid, its vitality so rich and pure, far surpasses the Fourth Grade Snow Dragon Holy Spring previously gifted by the Commerce Association."

Comparing the two types of High-Rank Spirit Liquids, Lu Xuan noted in his heart with a sigh.

"The previous reward was already sufficient; this bottle of Moon Essence Spirit Liquid must represent the Commerce Association’s esteem for me."

"For the multitude of Spiritual Plants in my Cave Abode, it is also considered a top-notch nourishing item."

He did not plan to ingest the Moon Essence Spirit Liquid himself, but instead to use it to nurture several High-Rank Spirit Plants in his Spirit Field, slightly Speeding Up their growth.

A few days after Zhang Jiuzong’s departure, an invitation flew towards the exterior of the Cave Abode.

While Cultivating Spiritual Plants, Lu Xuan drew the invitation towards him with a surge of Spiritual Power.

The invitation came from Qi Wuheng, the Thunderfire Star Cave Envoy, and the content was brief. It was an invitation for a casual gathering of several Golden Core Real People to exchange insights on cultivation, secrets of various paths, and so forth.

Although the Star Master of the Thunderfire Star Cave was a Primordial Infant True Monarch, it was a few Core Formation Realm Star Envoys who managed affairs on his behalf, with Qi Wuheng being one of them.

Lu Xuan didn’t need much time to consider and decided to make the trip, taking the opportunity to meet other Golden Core Real People.

After making brief arrangements, riding atop a Sword Light, he arrived at Qi Wuheng’s Cave Abode.

Outside the abode, sensing Lu Xuan’s presence, a middle-aged Cultivator with silver-white pupils and dense thunderous patterns on his cheeks shot out like lightning.

"Friend Lu, it has been quite a while since our last encounter."

"Star Envoy Qi, Lu Mou has come to bother you for a bit," said Lu Xuan as he clasped his hands and smiled.

"Friend Lu is too polite, please come in quickly," invited Qi Wuheng as he ushered Lu Xuan into the Cave Abode.

Lu Xuan had helped resolve an issue with Qi Wuheng’s beloved Spirit Beast, the Thunder Wing Bird, many years ago. Coupled with the later knowledge of Lu Xuan’s status as a Guest Elder of the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce, Qi Wuheng was extremely friendly towards Lu Xuan.

"Chirp Chirp!"

A crisp cry resonated, and a monstrous bird about a zhang in size spread its wings and flew rapidly towards them.

It was none other than Qi Wuheng’s Spirit Beast, which he had raised for many years—the Thunder Wing Bird.

Apparently holding a clear memory of Lu Xuan, the bird circled him a few times before reluctantly departing.

"This little one..."

Qi Wuheng shook his head and chuckled.

"Qi Star Envoy, this Thunder Wing Bird seems to be growing stronger, perhaps it could break through to a Fifth Rank Demon Bird," Lu Xuan complimented.

"It’s very difficult. The Thunder Wing Bird has average talent in its lineage; if it can peacefully live out its life, I will be satisfied," replied Qi Wuheng as they walked into a spacious courtyard together.

"Friend Lu!"

"Friend Lu finally decided to leave those Spirit Plants of yours."

As soon as Lu Xuan appeared, several Golden Core Real People stood up with smiles, each with an enthusiastic attitude.

Those who were more familiar with him even teased Lu Xuan a bit.

Lu Xuan greeted everyone in turn.

There were about seven or eight Golden Core Real People in the courtyard, all of whom were practicing in the Thunderfire Star Cave. Even though Lu Xuan rarely went out, he had still seen them once or twice.

Among them were several people he was more familiar with, such as Ye Xuanyin and Lei Zheng, with whom he had a certain friendship.

Following him, several more Golden Core Real People entered the courtyard.

Everyone was quite warm and friendly towards Lu Xuan.

The main reason was that even though Lu Xuan had not shown great strength, he had the identity of a Commerce Association Guest Elder. Plus, people were gradually becoming aware of his accomplishments in cultivating Spiritual Plants, leading to a warm and friendly attitude towards him.

Being a revered figure and a Spirit Plant Master who posed no threat to others, as well as someone who could help them at times, there was every reason for them to want to make his acquaintance.

"Sky Star Cave Envoy certainly is different, commanding such strong appeal that even Golden Core Real People from other Star Caves have come uninvited."

Lu Xuan sat in a corner, leisurely savouring a variety of delicious delicacies. @@novelbin@@

Many Golden Core Real People enthusiastically discussed various problems encountered on their path of cultivation, creating a lively atmosphere.

All this had little to do with Lu Xuan; he just sat quietly in the corner listening.

People also understood that he was only skilled in Spiritual Plants and his Cultivation Level was mainly built up with a large amount of Elixirs, so they did not inquire too much.

After half a day of sharing their cultivation experiences, they then shared various secret news from the Cultivation World.

Among them, there were stories about the discovery of Secret Lands and invitations to explore them together.

"Fellow cultivators, there has been a piece of secret news in the Thunder Sea recently, have any of you heard of it?"

Suddenly, a gentle Female Cultivator in the Early Core Formation stage spoke up.

"We would like to hear the details."

A young man with a calm demeanor continued the conversation.

Hearing it was related to the Thunder Sea, Lu Xuan in the corner also pricked up his ears.

"It is said that the Thunder Beast commonly seen at the entrance of the Thunder Sea was besieged by several Foundation Establishment Cultivators."

The Gentle Female Cultivator said softly.

"Is it that beast that often begs for Demon Beast Meat from passing cultivators?"

Someone asked with a laugh.

The group was familiar with that unique Thunder Beast.

That Thunder Beast had been on the edge of the Thunder Sea for many years, and whenever cultivators entered the Thunder Sea, it would often beg them for Demon Beast Meat, becoming adorable in its begging.

Though it was a Demon Beast, because of its strong power and the advantage of being on its home ground in the Thunder Sea, along with being particularly skilled at the Thunder Escape Technique,

and its mysterious origins, even the Sky Star Cave Cultivators guarding the passageway had not tried to drive it away.

Moreover, the Thunder Beast was quite insightful, always staying in the passageway, extremely friendly to passing cultivators. Over time, it had become a peculiar sight on the edge of the Thunder Sea.

In short, those who could easily kill it had no interest in causing a massacre at the entrance of the Thunder Sea.

Those Foundation Establishment Cultivators who were interested in hunting it down did not have the power to resolve it easily.

"When you frequently walk by the river, how can you not wet your shoes? I wonder how that Thunder Beast is now?" Enjoy exclusive content from NovelBin.Côm

A cultivator asked aloud.

Lu Xuan remained composed, paying close attention to the news about the Thunder Beast.

"It is said that it was besieged and trapped by five or six Foundation Establishment Mid and Late-term cultivators, but the Thunder Beast called over a companion who was much stronger than itself. In the end, it just left injured,"

"while those few Foundation Establishment Cultivators suffered over half in casualties and heavy losses,"

the Gentle Female Cultivator said slowly.
