You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 663: Orphaned, Yet Exceptionally Gifted

“Alright, I’m going to sleep now. Don’t disturb me unless it’s necessary,”

Lu Xuan was deep in thought when the Green Horn Thunder Son said in a muffled voice.

Immediately after, its figure transformed into a thick bolt of lightning, reaching a distant location in an instant.

Then, the sounds of thunder exploded one after another, rapidly approaching where Lu Xuan was, truly exemplifying what it means to have a thunderous snore.

“With the way you sleep, is there anyone who could possibly disturb you?”

Lu Xuan muttered to himself in secret, found a patch of soil with relatively richer Spiritual Power, and took out the Flying Thunder Ganoderma Spirit Seed from his storage bag.

He was already eager to learn about the detailed information of this new Sixth Grade Spirit Seed!

Using the Earth Pulling Technique, he placed the Spiritual Seed into a crack in the soil, concentrating his mind on it.

A thought emerged in his mind.

[Flying Thunder Ganoderma, a Sixth-grade Spiritual Plant, needs to be planted within Thunder attribute Spirit Soil and nurtured with Spiritual Energy containing Thunder spirit breath. After the Spiritual Plant takes root and sprouts, it gradually gains a certain amount of mobility, which increases as it grows.]

[The Flying Thunder Ganoderma has a fondness for Thunder attribute Spiritual Energy and Spiritual Objects, and will be involuntarily attracted to them, making every effort to get close to them.]

[Once the Spiritual Plant matures, it can assist in the cultivation of the Thunder Escape Divine Ability and also has a certain restraining effect on Demon Envoys.]

[Chase the power of thunder and lightning!]

“Another unsteady Spiritual Plant!”

Lu Xuan thought about the Fourth Grade Blood Spirit Ginseng he had cultivated before and sighed inwardly.

The difference between the two lay in the fact that the Blood Spirit Ginseng was attracted to blood qi, while the Flying Thunder Ganoderma was attracted to Thunder attribute Spiritual Energy and Spiritual Objects.

By the looks of it, the Flying Thunder Ganoderma’s mobility is far stronger than that of the Blood Spirit Ginseng.

“The Spiritual Plant can be used to aid in the cultivation of Thunder Escape Divine Ability once matured. Its use is quite specific but the effect must be extremely powerful.”

The Thunder Escape Divine Ability is many times more powerful than the Five Elements Escape Technique he had previously cultivated. Both in terms of speed and potency, they’re not on the same level.

“In the eyes of some ‘Cultivators,’ this Sixth Grade Flying Thunder Ganoderma is no different from a Strange Treasure.”

With that in mind, Lu Xuan dug the Flying Thunder Ganoderma Spirit Seed out from the soil and placed it back in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch, fearing damage to the vitality of the Spirit Seed.

He wandered around the Thunder Behemoth’s Territory for a while, taking out Spirit Fruit Spirit Paste from his storage bag and generously offering it to them whenever he encountered Thunder Behemoths.

Having secretly taken who knows how many Black-Green Spirit Thunders and Thunder Liquids from their hidden place, it was only natural to reciprocate their gifts accordingly.

“Don’t be shy, have more. It’s rare to taste Spirit Fruit Spirit Paste in the Thunder Sea.”

He used his Spiritual Power to lift a few Spirit Fruits and a bottle of Spiritual Juice, offering them to a large Thunder Behemoth in front of him.

The Thunder Behemoth’s silver-white nose came closer to sniff. After ensuring there was nothing unusual, a glint of desire flashed in its eyes and it swallowed the Spirit Fruits in one gulp.

Because of the unique environment of the Thunder Sea and the Thunder Behemoth Tribe’s lack of ability to cultivate Spiritual Plants, they could only allow the plants to grow and wither naturally, resulting in very limited production of Spirit Fruits.

Therefore, even low-grade Spirit Fruits are considered far more delicious in their eyes than those from high-rank Demon Beasts, not to mention the naturally formed Spiritual Juice and Spirit Brews.

“These three types of Spirit Brews have become the Thunder Behemoth Tribe’s joyful Monster Tribe beverages!”

Lu Xuan’s consciousness could sense the deep satisfaction of the Thunder Behemoths after consuming the Hundred Fruit Spirit Juice, Jade Wash Spirit Dew, and Ice Marrow Spirit Brew, and a smile appeared on his face.

“Hmm? What’s this little monster doing here? Skulking around.”

As he was observing the surrounding Thunder Behemoths, Lu Xuan suddenly noticed a small silver-white young beast appearing behind him.

The young beast was around two feet long, with sparse silver-white silky hair scattered across its body. Tiny flashes of lightning occasionally surged from the skin beneath the hairs.

“`

It looked extremely frail, with a sharp head topped by a single silver white horn, and its eyes were full of curiosity as it gazed at Lu Xuan.

“Come here, little one, I’ve got some tasty treats for you.”

Lu Xuan turned his head to beckon the young creature, signaling for it to come over.

Upon seeing Lu Xuan turn around, the young creature became as skittish as a startled bird, transforming into a streak of silver-white lightning that flashed out of Lu Xuan’s sight and landed some ten meters away.

“To have such astonishing speed so soon after being born! What an impressive talent!”

Lu Xuan remarked inwardly upon seeing this.

His figure moved like a stream of light, neither too fast nor too slow, until he reached a spot not far from the young creature.

The young creature hid behind a thunder ball, revealing only part of its little face, with the silver-white horn especially conspicuous.

“Go ahead and eat without worry.”

Lu Xuan said gently, controlling a piece of Fourth Grade Demon Beast Meat, an Enchanted Immortal Peach Spirit Fruit, and a clump of Jade Wash Spirit Dew, placing them before the young creature.

The young creature eyed the three items exuding strong spiritual energy with a trace of hesitation in its eyes, then snatched up the pink, tender Enchanted Immortal Peach and quickly disappeared into the cluster of thunder balls.

Before Lu Xuan could react, it reappeared just as quickly, taking away the clump of Jade Wash Spirit Dew.

And it didn’t forget to take the Demon Beast Meat with it in the end.

Lu Xuan couldn’t help but smile, no longer focusing his attention solely on the young creature, but continued to feed the other Thunder Behemoth Spirit Fruit Spirit Paste.

Unexpectedly, that silver-white young creature kept reappearing in front of Lu Xuan intermittently.

Unnoticed by Lu Xuan, it would occasionally hide in the shadows, staring intently at him.

But if Lu Xuan caught sight of it, it would disappear immediately, only to reappear a short while later not far from him.

Upon noticing this, Lu Xuan just let it follow him.

“Friend Lu, do you have some interest in that young creature?”

In the Thunder Behemoth’s Territory, aside from the Seventh Grade Green Horn Thunder Son who held the supreme status, there were also several Thunder Behemoth of different ranks that, upon refining the crossbones in their throats, had the ability to speak the human language.

The one questioning Lu Xuan was a Fifth Grade Strange Thunder Behemoth with a pair of silver-white wings.

The silver-white wings shimmered with lightning, giving off a majestic appearance.

“When the Thunder Behemoth Tribe’s offspring are born, due to the thin Thunder Son Bloodline in their bodies, mutations occasionally occur.”

“This young creature is one such Strange Species, and based on the Thunder Son Ancestor’s judgement, it has the potential to ascend to the rank of a Grade 5 Monster.”

“However, the young creature has had a bit of a rough life; its father met an untimely death in a mysterious pocket of the Thunder Sea before it was born, and its mother carried it for many years, but succumbed to injuries to her foundational essence soon after giving birth, and died a few years later.”

“Due to its special bloodline, it is quite different from most Thunder Beasts, and coupled with its unusual history, it isn’t very well accepted within the Thunder Behemoth Tribe Group.”

“Furthermore, it is somewhat reclusive by nature, preferring to be alone rather than interacting much with the other Thunder Beasts, making it quite the oddity within the tribe.”

“Nevertheless, since we share the same bloodline, we still ensure its basic needs for growth are met.”

“If Friend Lu possesses ample ability and manages to gain its acceptance, you might try adopting it.”

“Once it reaches its full potential, it might become a significant aid by your side.”

The looming double-winged Thunder Beast spoke slowly.

Lu Xuan’s interest was immediately piqued.

“Both parents deceased, remarkable talent, shunned by its own kind—doesn’t this make for a perfect hero’s origin?”
