You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 823: Twin Birth White Lotus

The light receded, revealing a wondrous Spirit Seed floating before Lu Xuan.

The Spirit Seed was a lotus seed, brimming with vitality, the size of a fist, crystal clear as jade, emitting a faint white light. It bestowed a comforting feeling to the soul, bringing endless serenity and peace.

“What treasure is this?”

“Given its vitality, it doesn’t seem like a Sixth Grade Spirit Seed.”

“Hiss… Could it possibly be a Seventh Grade Spirit Seed?”

At this thought, the gathering of Foundation Establishment Cultivators and Jindan Cultivators immediately erupted into an uproar.

Their gazes towards the lotus seed were blazing with desire.

This was a Seventh Grade Treasure! Even if it was the relatively lowest value Spirit Seed, it still fell within the Seventh Grade category, representing a sky-high treasure to everyone present.

And such a rare and precious treasure was won through a raffle? The dramatic way this treasure was acquired instantly unsettled many, and looks of envy and covetousness were cast towards Lu Xuan.

“Exchanging one Sixth Grade Spirit Fruit for 200,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, friend, you would be making a considerable profit!” another exclaimed immediately, intending to buy Lu Xuan’s raffled Seventh Grade Spirit Seed with a high offer.

“I apologize, fellow cultivators. If it were any other Seventh Grade treasure and the price was right, I might have considered transferring it to another,” Lu Xuan said, firmly declining with controlled excitement and joy.

“But Spirit Seeds are different.”

“As a Spirit Plant Master, I am obsessed with all sorts of rare high-grade Spirit Seeds. Having obtained this Seventh Grade Spirit Seed, I naturally cannot bear to part with it.”

Seeing his resolute attitude, everyone reluctantly gave up on the idea.

Among them, those with a sharp wit discovered the secret behind Lu Xuan’s three raffle draws.

The first time, he offered a third-grade Spirit Peach and received a Third-grade Charm – nothing extraordinary.

The second time, he offered a Fourth Grade Thunderstorm Lotus Seed and was rewarded with a rare bottle of Fifth Grade Yin Attribute Spirit Liquid.

The last time, he used an unexpectedly Sixth Grade mysterious Spirit Fruit and obtained an equally mysterious Seventh Grade Spirit Seed.@@novelbin@@

The three treasures he offered were consecutively higher in rank, with the second and third items sharing a commonality.

Both were Thunder attribute Spirit Fruits!

“Could this be the secret to Friend Lu acquiring precious treasures?” pondered some cultivators.

“If that’s the case, if I also offer high-rank Thunder attribute Spirit Fruits to the Treasure Devouring Thunder Toad, does that mean I too have a chance to obtain high-rank treasures from it?” wondered the remaining Jindan Cultivators who had not yet used up their three opportunities, their minds racing with excitement.

“Friend Lu, dare I ask if you still have any of those Sixth Grade Thunder attribute Spirit Fruits? I would like to purchase one at a high price,” one asked eagerly.

“Friend Zhang, you flatter me too much. That is a Sixth Grade Spirit Fruit, which I was fortunate to cultivate only one. How could I have any to spare?” Lu Xuan said, half in truth, half in pretense.

Indeed, he possessed only one Sixth Grade Zewei Oblivion Thunderfruit, but there were still many Five Thunder Lotus and Thunderstorm Lotus Seeds left – he just didn’t wish to reveal that.

“What about that Silver White Lotus Seed from before?” The cultivator persisted, not giving up.

“I am truly sorry, but that was the last one,” Lu Xuan replied.

Lu Xuan’s face showed a hint of apology as he shook his head.

He still had quite a few Thunderstorm Lotus Seeds in his storage bag, but he was unwilling to sell them to the cultivators present.

Firstly, each cultivator might need three seeds, and the number he had was definitely not enough to distribute.

It’s not the scarcity that one fears, but the uneven distribution; rather than offending some cultivators, it was better to simply disassociate and not take out the Thunderstorm Lotus Seeds at all.

Secondly, offering Thunderstorm Lotus Seeds could indeed obtain high-rank treasure items from the Treasure Devouring Thunder Toad.

However, if there were too many cultivators trying to fleece the toad, it might very well offend the Thunderfire True Monarch.

Therefore, Lu Xuan had always insisted that he had no seeds, leaving the crowd no choice but to give up reluctantly.

The cultivators who drew for treasures afterwards also tried various ways to offer Spirit Fruits, but high-grade Spirit Fruits were rare, let alone those beloved by the Treasure Devouring Thunder Toad, which were of the thunder attribute, while fruits of other attributes did not interest him much.

Thus, until the very end, no astonishing treasure rewards appeared, except for a Fifth Rank Treasure that aroused the envy of numerous Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Of course, this also had a lot to do with that Seventh Grade Spirit Seed greatly raising the threshold of expectations among those present.

After the event concluded, everyone in attendance had a lingering desire, wishing for a chance to draw ten in a row and obtain rare treasures from the Treasure Devouring Thunder Toad.

Among them, many cultivators looked at Lu Xuan with burning eagerness, their gazes tinged with a hint of strangeness.

A Seventh Grade Spirit Seed… for the Jindan Cultivators present, it was an extremely rare treasure; to be lucky enough to obtain one was like encountering a tremendously fortunate opportunity that could greatly ease their path of cultivation in the future.

Lu Xuan appeared calm and composed, as if he didn’t notice those peculiar gazes at all.

With his current strength, even several Golden Core Late Stage Cultivators banding together posed no problem.

“If there really are some who are blind…”

“Anyway, the Underworld Spirit Field in the Abyss Star Cave has always been in dire need of high-quality fertilizer,” he thought to himself.

Just then, several streaks of light shot over swiftly, and the Thunderfire True Monarch appeared before the crowd along with several Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Patriarch Mu appeared directly beside Lu Xuan, smiling as he congratulated him.

“Congratulations, little friend Lu, for representing the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce and obtaining such a precious treasure as the Seventh Grade Spirit Seed,” he said with an aged voice that emphasized the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce, the meaning behind his words quite clear.

“As a Commerce Association Guest Elder, whoever wishes him ill should first weigh the consequences of offending the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce.”

A few other Primordial Infant True Monarchs also extended their congratulations to Lu Xuan.

“Congratulations, Friend Lu!”

“Little friend Lu is indeed blessed with deep fortune; I fear even us might not be able to obtain such a treasure from the Treasure Devouring Thunder Toad.”

“Friend, are you willing to part with this Seventh Grade Spirit Seed? The price will surely satisfy you,” a Gentle Female Cultivator radiating an aura of purity inquired softly. From the introductions before the celebration, Lu Xuan knew this woman was the Owner of the Green Wood Star Cave, also at the Mid Nascent Soul Stage Realm.

“I’m sorry, senior, I am too fond of this Spirit Seed and cannot bear to part with it,” Lu Xuan replied.

“Not to worry,” the Gentle Female Cultivator nodded, not taking offense.

The few present were all at the Nascent Soul Realm, with formidable strength and substantial backing, having seen or owned numerous Seventh Grade Treasure Items.

If it were Divine Skills or magic treasures, they might strive to obtain them, but a Seventh Grade Spirit Seed was different; its value was much lower, and the cultivation period was excessively long, often spanning hundreds of years, or even more.

In addition, specialization is key in any profession. Without extensive experience in Cultivating Spiritual Plants, attempting to cultivate a Seventh Grade Spirit Plant risked high failure rates.

“Little friend Lu, thank you for feeding the Treasure Devouring Thunder Toad those rare Spirit Fruits, and congratulations on obtaining the Twin Birth White Lotus Spirit Seed from it,” the dignified and high-crowned Thunderfire True Monarch conveyed to Lu Xuan through a private message.
