You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 426: Pill Hall Seed Plucking



"Annihilation Five Elements Formation!"

Lu Xuan couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"The Annihilation Five Elements Formation can trap and even severely injure or kill cultivators in the early stages of Core Formation. The power of this formation is truly terrifying."

He carefully examined the array flags and array disks in his hand, which were swirling and changing with five-colored spiritual power, feeling joy in his heart.

"All things considered, this is the third formation I've obtained from the spirit plant luminous orbs."

"The Thousand Illusion Cloud Smoke Formation from the Illusory Smoke Luo Fruit, the Flowing Light Formation from the Flowing Light Wood, and now the Annihilation Five Elements Formation."

He stored away the array flags and disks, deciding to use them next time he went to Sword Gate Town to protect the many strange spiritual plants in the small courtyard in the Underworld.

Inside, there were many fourth and even fifth-grade spiritual plants. Although so far, only a shadowy cultivator had attempted to break in once for the Holy Infant Fruit, if he could further strengthen the defenses of the small courtyard, Lu Xuan would naturally feel much more at ease.

He rarely went out on normal days, hardly ever having the chance to set up arrays against enemies. It was a waste to leave the formation in the sect, but it was quite suitable to set up around the small courtyard.

"The Five Elements Fruit is ripe, along with the Spirit-Concealing Grass and Jade Dew Fruit entrusted by the Pill Hall for cultivation. I need to deliver this fourth-grade Five Elements Fruit and also pluck some spiritual seeds from the Pill Hall."

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

Having just plucked a fifth-grade spiritual seed from True Immortal Li Qingxu, he was not yet satisfied and decided to pluck a handful more from the Pill Hall of the Sky Sword Sect, which was the wealthiest.

"It's not just for the spiritual seeds, more importantly, I want the fellow disciples in the Pill Hall to have better spiritual medicinal materials for crafting higher-grade pills."

He said shamelessly to himself.

Taking out a communication talisman from Master Guan Wan of the Pill Hall, he infused it with spiritual power.

"Sister Guan, the Five Elements Fruit you entrusted to me has matured successfully. If it's convenient for you now, I will deliver it to you."

"Really? That's wonderful, there's no need for Lu Junior Brother to go through the trouble, I'll come over myself."

Shortly after, a communication talisman arrived outside the Flowing Light Formation, from which Guan Wan's gentle voice could be heard, revealing a hint of joy.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan had no choice but to wait in his cave dwelling.

Perhaps because the Five Elements Fruit was extremely important, Guan Wan arrived very quickly, the communication talisman had barely arrived before she was already outside the cave dwelling.

"Sister Guan, welcome."

Lu Xuan greeted her with a smile.

"Lu Junior Brother, the variety and grade of spiritual plants in your cave dwelling have increased."

Following Lu Xuan, Guan Wan looked at the dense white fog concealing many spiritual plants and remarked.

"Personally, I enjoy nurturing these flowers and plants the most. As I kept nurturing them, their numbers just kept growing."

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

"Moreover, I must thank Sister Guan for securing so many spiritual seeds for pill crafting from the Pill Hall on my behalf."

"Lu Junior Brother, you're too modest. The main reason we could get those spiritual seeds is because of your expertise in spiritual plants, not much because of me."

Guan Wan said with a suppressed smile.

Entering the courtyard, Lu Xuan presented the spiritual fruits and juice, inviting Guan Wan.

After some casual conversation, he took out the Five Elements Fruit, carefully packed in a jade box, and handed it to Guan Wan.

"Please inspect the Five Elements Fruit, Sister Guan."

"With Lu Junior Brother's word, there's naturally no problem."

Guan Wan nodded slightly, trusting Lu Xuan greatly, but still went through the necessary process. She took out the spiritual fruit, carefully examined it, and even used spiritual power to test the fruit.

"The appearance is intact, and the quality even reaches a good level."

"It's truly not easy to fully cultivate a fourth-grade spiritual plant. I didn't expect Lu Junior Brother to exceed the task and cultivate a spiritual fruit of good quality."

Guan Wan's eyes sparkled with surprise.

Cultivating high-grade spiritual plants is extremely difficult; if the level of the spiritual plant is slightly off, one might end up with inferior quality spiritual fruits, or even kill the plant.

Therefore, the good quality Five Elements Fruit that Lu Xuan handed over made her more than satisfied.

The better the quality of the spiritual fruit, the greater the impact on pill crafting, slightly increasing the probability of pill formation and the quality of the pills.

"Lu Junior

Brother's expertise in spiritual plants is probably unmatched in the sect, except for the Core Formation elders."

"Even the Core Formation elders might only have more experience but in terms of knowledge on a specific spiritual plant, they might not compare to Junior Brother."

Guan Wan couldn't help but express.

"Sister, you flatter me too much. I still have a long way to go."

Lu Xuan modestly said.

"The Five Elements Fruit, being a fourth-grade spiritual plant, as per our agreement, the reward for successful cultivation is one hundred Sword Seals, and an additional fifty for good quality, here are one hundred and fifty Sword Seals for you to review."

Guan Wan waved her hand, and a small pile of Sword Seals floated in front of Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan scanned them with his spiritual sense and nodded.

"The count is correct."

He collected the Sword Seals, expressing his gratitude to Guan Wan.

Cultivating two or three fourth-grade spiritual plants, the Sword Seals earned could almost buy a new fourth-grade spiritual seed from the Agricultural Hall.

Lu Xuan gained a rough idea of the wealth of the Pill Hall.

Such a fat sheep, it was only right to pluck a bit more.

He was about to inquire when Guan Wan had already taken the initiative to speak.

"Lu Junior Brother, would you be willing to cultivate the Five Elements Fruit spiritual plant again?"

Lu Xuan eagerly nodded.

"It would be my great honor to do a little something for the pill masters of the Pill Hall."

"Alright, I'll go back and see if there are any Five Elements Fruit spiritual seeds available in the Agricultural Hall. If not, I'll send over a few seeds to Junior Brother after they're condensed."

Guan Wan said softly.

Pausing for a moment, as if thinking of something, she looked towards Lu Xuan.

"Lu Junior Brother, have you considered pursuing pill crafting?"

"Pill crafting?"

Lu Xuan pondered.

"Yes."

"Cultivating spiritual plants and crafting pills are somewhat interconnected. Pill crafters in the Pill Hall have, more or less, experiences in cultivating spiritual plants, but they are far from Junior Brother's level."

"With such profound knowledge in spiritual plants, capable of consistently producing high-quality spiritual medicines, it would be a waste not to make good use of it."

Lu Xuan fell into deep thought.

The spiritual plants and fruits he cultivated, apart from those commissioned by others, were mostly used internally, either for personal use or for feeding spiritual beasts. A small portion was used to exchange for spiritual seeds and other related resources.

He had seldom considered pill crafting before, focusing solely on cultivating spiritual plants.

However, after absorbing the experience packages of Foundation Establishment Pills, the idea occasionally crossed his mind.

"Resources like Foundation Establishment Pills must be crafted; otherwise, it would be a waste not to use those experience packages."

"Whether openly or privately, crafting Foundation Establishment Pills is inevitable."

"Joining the Pill Hall as a pill crafter would be legitimate, possibly allowing the crafting of Foundation Establishment Pills to be conducted openly."

"In the future, if successful, they could also be offered to the sect, opening up a major channel."

Lu Xuan thought to himself.
