I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates - Chapter 414
Chapter 414: Chapter 412: Qing Helved Shoes_1
“Brother Lu!”
Lu Xuan saw a middle-aged cultivator with a profound aura approaching him from a distance, his face beaming with a warm smile.
“Greetings, Friend Yu.”
His eyes flashed with puzzlement as he greeted the middle-aged cultivator.
He had faint memories of this middle-aged cultivator, whose family name was Yu and who had a Foundation Establishment Mid-term cultivation base. They had some association with each other during their time in the blessed land established by the three sects. However, after returning to the sect, they had no further contact.
“I didn’t expect Brother Lu to remember me.”
The smile on Yu Hong’s face was even warmer and more sincere.
His impression of Lu Xuan was extremely profound. In the blessed land, Lu Xuan had used his extensive knowledge in spirit plants to solve the major problem of the Arm Forest Odd Formation for his sect members.
He also noticed that Fire Scale Child and Sword Wu Xia, the two true disciples, usually had a high standard, but they were extremely close to Lu Xuan. He was even surprised to learn that a Golden Core Real People had left a special Charm for Lu Xuan as a life-saving item.
As a result, he began to view Lu Xuan, the Spirit Plant Master, differently, and he was keen to associate with him, but he couldn’t seem to find the opportunity to do so.
“Sword Qing, you know Brother Lu?”
“Mmh, I entered the sect with Brother Lu.”
Baili Jianqing was still immersed in the overly enthusiastic response of Yu Hong towards Lu Xuan and instinctively answered.
“Hiss….”
Yu Hong couldn’t help but suck in a cold breath.
He hadn’t expected these two to have such a past, and he was very familiar with the time when Baili Jianqing had joined the sect. Does this mean Lu Xuan had risen from a mere outer sect disciple to the Foundation Establishment Mid-term Realm in less than two decades?
At such a young age, being valued by the sect’s true teachings and even the Golden Core, his future was indeed unlimited!
“Brother Lu, Sword Qing’s grandfather and I were once fellow disciples with a very deep bond.”
He proactively introduced Lieutenant Sword Qing’s background to Lu Xuan.
“I see.” Lu Xuan nodded in acknowledgment.
“Yu…” He was caught in a dilemma as to how he should address Yu Hong.
“No problem, we can just call each other accordingly. You may address me as Younger Brother Yu.”
Several wrinkles appeared on Yu Hong’s face as he laughed.
After Lu Xuan took his seat, the topic of conversation slowly shifted towards him. On learning that he was a Spirit Plant Master, everyone expressed their admiration.
After the feast, Lu Xuan found Baili Jianqing and tossed him a green marbled gourd, which resonated with soft sword hum when thrown up and down.
“I know you like things related to swords, so consider this Sword Nurturing Gourd as a congratulate for your breakthrough to Foundation Establishment realm.”
Under Baili Jianqing’s burning gaze, Lu Xuan lightly tossed the gourd to him.
He had more than a dozen Sword Nurturing Gourds in his possession. For this visit, he purposely selected the one of the best quality and presented it to Baili Jianqing.
“Thank you, Brother Lu!”
Having received the Sword Nurturing Gourd, Baili Jianqing caressed the sword qi inside with his spiritual sense. He simply couldn’t put it down.
The Sword Nurturing Gourd could release the invisible Sword Qi it nurtured, making it extremely deadly. Although it was produced by spirit plants, it was superior to most Third Rank Magic Weapons. It was perfect for Baili Jianqing who had just advanced to an inner sect disciple.
Lu Xuan did not linger in Baili Jianqing’s cave dwelling. After catching up on past times and recalling some memories, he went back to his own dwelling.
As soon as he entered the Flowing Light Formation, the Cloud Leopard emerged somewhere. It stood in the dense forest at a distance, looking at Lu Xuan, and then deliberately not paying any attention walked past him.
Only after Lu Xuan stroked the two tufts of fur on top of its ears did it let out a light growl and quietly walked away without any changes in its green eyes.
Next, a gray vine, like a gray snake, crawled to Lu Xuan’s feet, trying to burrow into his sleeve.
“No, no, no! You’re all grown up, and you’re still burrowing everywhere!”
Lu Xuan hurriedly stopped the Demonic Vine and took a Flaming Fruit out of the storage bag, stuffing it into the top of the vine.
After returning from the Blessed Land, he had been feeding some Spirit Fruits to the Demonic Vine on a regular basis as a reward for the Spiritual Seed species it had found in the Blessed Land like the Spirit of Flesh and the Arrow Vine.
With its appetite greatly satisfied, the Demonic Vine leisurely strolled around the Spirit Field every day, marking its favorite Spirit Plant spots everywhere.
It was particularly fond of two types of Spirit Plants.
When it was bored, it would stay under the Enchanted Immortal Peach, enjoying the slight intoxication from the pink miasma and the strange feeling of the vine constantly differentiating into vine-like branches.
If the nearby Illusion Sound Bamboo made too much noise, it would use its vine-like branches to forcefully stuff the many cracks in the bamboo until they were full, silencing them.
Lu Xuan arrived at the edge of the small lake, looking at the Rock-shell Turtle merrily bouncing around in the lake, its body covered with thick mud armor, a dirty and naughty look.
The Green Horned Dragon Carp stayed quietly in the corner, swallowing the faint white Spiritual Energy that rose from the lake.
The Fire Separation Flood Dragon stayed quietly at the bottom of the lake, guarding the Fifth Grade Dragon Bone Grass, observing if it could absorb a touch of fine dragon energy.
“Hmm? Where’s Fat Bird?”
Lu Xuan was puzzled in his heart, he usually most enthusiastic Wind Falcon today wasn’t seen around with its round belly.
His Spiritual Sense swept over the entire peak, and in the depths of the forest, he found the pale blue Fat Bird, whose aura was steadily rising.
“Huh, is it about to break through its Rank?”
Lu Xuan’s heart jumped with joy, and in a flash, he was beside the Wind Falcon.
The Wind Falcon looked at Lu Xuan with a glimmer of joy in its round eyes.
Lu Xuan’s presence gave it a few more chances of success in its advancement.
It stretched out a pair of wide, pale blue wings, the pale blue Spiritual Light on the wings surged, forming a series of howling wind currents.
Soon, the aura inside the Wind Falcon reached a limit; its wings lightly flapped, causing a whirlwind, the trees within a range of more than ten feet were blown into a messy state.
“Chirp!”
It let out a clear chirp, the sound was decisive, and all the Spiritual Power entered its body at the same time.
Lu Xuan concentrated his Spiritual Sense on the Wind Falcon’s status, ready to assist at any time.
“Chirp!”
A clear tweet echoed through the sky, the Wind Falcon turned into a green light and shot through the mountain peak. Its speed was so fast that it was hard for the naked eye to catch.
Lu Xuan felt the joy in its heart and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The second Grade Wind Falcon, raised in the dense and pure Spiritual Energy environment of the Inner Sect, and fed with second and even third-grade Spirit Fruits and treasures as if they were Spirit Stones, had finally advanced to become a third-grade Spirit Beast after many years of accumulation.
He went to the spot where the Wind Falcon had been, gently touched the faintly flickering White Light Cluster that appeared out of nowhere.
Countless tiny light points instantly surged into Lu Xuan’s body, and a thought flashed across his mind.
[The second-grade Wind Falcon has been promoted to a third-grade Spirit Beast and obtained a fourth-grade Magical Artifact, Qingfulu.]
A pair of light blue shoes appeared in Lu Xuan’s hand. The shoes were covered with numerous fine light blue Spiritual patterns. These shoes were light as a feather, as if they would be blown away by the wind at any moment.
Lu Xuan concentrated his thoughts on the light blue shoes.
[The Qingfulu, a fourth-grade Magical Artifact, was made from the leather of a fourth-grade Qingfu Demon Bird. It has been inscribed with numerous symbols for speed augmentation, and space breaking. It is light as a feather, can reduce the weight of a Cultivator, and greatly increase a Cultivator’s speed.]
