You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 670: Snow Dragon Holy Spring, Star Fruit

After the Mu Family Tree Monster left, Zhang Jiuzong and Han Song, two Golden Core Intermediate Cultivators, checked the Blessed Land thoroughly but found nothing of note.

With no other choice, they had to temporarily leave and requested that the Commerce Association send people to investigate further.

Lu Xuan rode on Zhang Jiuzong’s Treasure Ship and successfully returned to the Thunder Fire Asterism Cave.

“Friend Lu, this is where we part ways, thanks to your help during the trip to the Spirit Phantom Blessed Land, the Commerce Association was able to avoid significant losses,”

said Zhang Jiuzong, clasping his fists and sincerely expressing his gratitude to Lu Xuan as they parted.

“Friend Zhang, you’re too kind. This is simply part of my duties as a Commerce Association Guest Elder,”

Lu Xuan said modestly.

“About the Spiritual Seeds I mentioned before, I will urge the relevant Cultivators in the Commerce Association to expedite delivery to you, Friend Lu,”

“Additionally, I will arrange a generous gift for you as compensation for solving the issue with the Tiger Leopard Grass,”

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

“We’ll meet again soon!”

As Lu Xuan watched the Treasure Ship disappear into the sky, his Spiritual Sense immediately swept across the countless subtle thunder flashes around him. Then, activating the Earth Spirit Pearl, he employed the Earth Escape Technique from the Earth Element Secret Book. A dim yellow spiritual light welled up under his feet, plunging him into the depths of the earth in an instant.

After a while, in the sky above the Cave Abode,

the Void Nightmare Eye drifted past, its pale white pupils scanning indifferently below.

“No anomalies,”

Lu Xuan muttered to himself, not sure whether to feel disappointed or relieved.

He appeared outside the Cave Abode, opened the two Fifth-Grade Formation Methods, and smoothly entered the Cave Abode.

“It’s safer to stay inside the Cave Abode. Though it’s safe outside, it still can’t compare to my own abode.”

He pulled off the Thousand Masks, reverting to his original appearance.

Just as he was about to check the Spirit Field to see if any Spiritual Plants had matured over the past few days, a whirlwind rolled down from the mountain in front of him as Fat Bird rushed over. Its round, plump belly, in no way hindered by its broad, light teal wings, fluttered with lively agility.

“Every time I come back, you make such a big show. Aren’t you aware of your size now?”

Lu Xuan said, supporting the belly of the Wind Falcon with one hand and showing a helpless expression.

“Roar~”

A thunderous roar rang out by his ear, clear yet youthful.

“Huh? Where is that sound coming from? Why can’t I find its owner?”

Lu Xuan looked at the Thunder Dragon Behemoth Cub hiding under the Fat Bird’s wings, yet revealing a sharp silver-white horn, and couldn’t help but chuckle.

Hearing his words, the Thunder Dragon Behemoth Cub transformed into a silver-white ray of light and shot out, crashing directly into Lu Xuan’s arms.

It was evident that the cub had been comfortable and content in the Cave Abode recently, having grown slightly plumper and looking less solitary and gloomy than before.

Lu Xuan played with the affectionate cub, then proceeded directly into the Spirit Field.

He examined the details of each Spiritual Plant. Whenever he found any subtle needs of the plants, he did his best to fulfill them to ensure they were cultivated as perfectly as possible.

For the following period, he earnestly stayed in the Cave Abode, daily cultivating Spiritual Plants, rearing Spirit Beasts, and practicing several High Rank Cultivation Techniques from the Light Cluster, living simply and fulfilling days.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed. That day, as Lu Xuan was using the Spirit Rain Technique to moisten the various Spiritual Plants in the Cave Abode, a familiar voice came from outside.

“Is Friend Lu in the Cave Abode? It’s Zhang Jiuzong.”

In the palm of Lu Xuan’s hand, a grey-white pupil emerged from the crack, revealing the familiar figure of Zhang Jiuzong.

“Turns out it’s Friend Zhang. It’s been a while since we last met. How have you been lately?”

His form turned into a streak of light and moved to the edge of the Cave Abode, opened the Formation, and welcomed Zhang Jiuzong inside.

“Thanks to your concern, Friend Lu, all is well. I just couldn’t stop thinking about the high-grade Spirit Brews in your Cave Abode. Craving them has been making me itch, so I came over to catch up with you,”

“Hahaha, my cave abode might lack many things, but Spirit Brew and Spirit Fruit are certainly in plentiful supply,” Lu Mou said with a hearty laugh.

“Later, after you and I, Friend Zhang, drink to our heart’s content, you can take some back with you,” Lu Xuan said cheerfully.

Zhang Jiuzong’s face lit up with joy.

The two went into the courtyard and chatted idly while enjoying Spirit Fruit and Spirit Juice.

“Friend Zhang, how is the situation concerning the Soul Devouring Strange Fungus in the Spirit Phantom Blessed Land now? Has it been completely resolved?” Lu Xuan asked.

“Currently, the Commerce Association has dispatched a Primordial Infant True Monarch to investigate the matter. It is said that there has been progress, and it is preliminarily believed that a special Demon Envoy has infiltrated the Blessed Land, bringing with it that strange fungal filament,” Zhang Jiuzong replied gravely.

“It’s good to find the root of the problem. With a Primordial Infant True Monarch taking action, surely the Demon Envoy lurking within the Blessed Land will be captured without a fight,” Lu Xuan said with a smile.”Let’s not talk about that.”

“Coming to Friend Lu’s cave abode this time, aside from wanting to indulge in some Spirit Brew, I actually have another piece of great news,” Zhang Jiuzong leaned closer, speaking with an air of mystery.

“Could it be about Spiritual Seeds?” asked Lu Xuan, his curiosity piqued.

“Indeed.”

“Last time, Friend Lu solved the mutation problem with the Tiger Leopard Grass, preventing a large loss for the Commerce Association and allowing many to witness your expertise in Cultivating Spiritual Plants.”

“Therefore, when voting on whom to entrust the Fifth-Grade Spiritual Seeds to, you received the support of the majority of Cultivators.”

“In addition, the Commerce Association has decided to present a type of Spiritual Spring that is exceptionally suitable for Spirit Plant Masters to you,” Zhang Jiuzong continued, as he took out a White Jade Thin Neck Bottle from his storage bag.

Upon opening the bottle, strands of pale white spiritual energy surged forth, lingering for a long time, and a single whiff was enough to refresh and invigorate.

Lu Xuan looked inside the bottle and saw it was filled with nearly half a bottle of milky white Spiritual Liquid. A faint white spiritual energy swirled above the liquid, and deep within, the faint silhouette of a Flood Dragon moved slowly.

“What is this?” Lu Xuan asked curiously, his gaze fixed on the Spiritual Liquid in the bottle.

“This Spiritual Liquid is called Snow Dragon Holy Spring, a specialty from a place called Snow Dragon Mountain within Liyang Region. Its rank is fourth grade, but its quality surpasses most other Spiritual Liquids of the same rank.”

“The Spiritual Energy of Snow Dragon Holy Spring is pure and pristine, making it suitable for a wide range of Spiritual Plants. It’s a top-tier spiritual object for cultivating spiritual plants.”

“Snow Dragon Holy Spring…” Lu Xuan murmured to himself, envisioning the Pure Luli Tea, Jade Spirit Branch, and other spiritual plants in his mind that urgently needed such attributes in Spiritual Spring Liquid.

He carefully received the Spiritual Spring with both hands and gave it a gentle shake, causing the faint silhouette of a Flood Dragon to appear intermittently within.

The Snow Dragon Holy Spring given by the Commerce Association was a generous amount, roughly three liters, and considering its high rank, the reward was indeed extremely rich.

“Thank you, Friend Zhang, for speaking so highly on my behalf,” he expressed his gratitude to Zhang Jiuzong, knowing that although he did not witness it himself, Zhang Jiuzong must have made significant efforts for him to receive so much Snow Dragon Holy Spring.

“Friend Lu, you needn’t be so polite just yet; in addition to the Snow Dragon Holy Spring, I have also brought you a Fifth-Grade Spiritual Seed.”

“Star Fruit, six pieces.”

Zhang Jiuzong said with a smile, taking six chicken egg-sized spiritual seeds out of his storage bag, radiating with spiritual light.

The surface of the spiritual seeds was uneven, resembling dazzling diamonds that refracted specks of starlight. When one’s Spiritual Sense delved into the seeds, it felt as if one was entering an immense expanse of stars.
