I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

"It's a pity that the Naling Grass Beads in my hand are not enough, otherwise I would have to ripen the other two Dragon Skeleton Grasses raised in the Linlin of the Nether Spring."

Lu Xuan looked at the two slender dragon-shaped black grasses swimming happily in the deep cold spring water and sighed.

The remaining ones in the secret realm are basically fifth-grade and are not suitable to be taken out. The only fourth-grade Dihuangzao has extremely high requirements for spiritual energy and spiritual soil and has harsh growth conditions, so Lu Xuan left it in the secret realm.

Back in the cave, Lu Xuan did not stop and continued to condense spiritual seeds for fifty water fireflies.

Five days later, all the water fireweed spiritual seeds were successfully condensed, and Lu Xuan collected about two hundred and fifty azure slender spiritual seeds.

He inspected the spiritual field, hesitated, and decided to bring four arrow vines with him.

Arrow vines are fourth-grade mutant spiritual plants, and their growth requirements are not very high. Lu Xuan only needs to provide arrow spiritual power. Moreover, they have already entered the growth stage, and may have matured halfway before returning to the sect.

There were many spiritual beasts in the cave, so he planned to take the Cloud-Stepping Lynx and the Demonic Vine with him, while leaving the others in the cave.

While he waited patiently, about ten days later, a talisman flew into the cave.

After learning the information on the talisman, Lu Xuan looked solemnly, looked at the cave with a bit of nostalgia in his eyes, and rushed to the gathering place of the foreign sect.

On a flat and broad mountaintop, he found his fellow disciples who were going out together this time.

After confirming his identity, Lu Xuan entered the body of a dragon puppet lying on the top of the mountain.

This dragon puppet is huge, more than twenty feet long, with a cave inside. There are simple houses in two rows, and there is a narrow corridor in the middle. There are layers of restrictions outside.

After everyone arrived, the dragon puppet soared into the sky and went straight into the sky.

Lu Xuan sat quietly in the small room inside, tilting his head, looking through a small window at the rapidly retreating white clouds outside, feeling a sense of déjà vu in his mind.

More than twenty years ago, I was still a small Qi-training monk. In order to find a stable farming environment, I spent a lot of spiritual stones and took the treasure ship delivered by Wanbao Tower all the way to Jianmen Town.

At that time, I was looking at the white clouds passing by through the window of the treasure ship, my eyes full of anticipation and anxiety.

But now, my mood has changed a lot, and I feel confident.

"Things have changed and people have changed. That little spiritual planter back then wouldn't have thought that he could grow to where he is now in such a short time, right?"

Lu Xuan had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

While he was sighing, there were three crisp knocks on the door outside the house.

"Please come in."

With a movement of his spiritual power, Lu Xuan canceled the simple spiritual energy restriction placed in the room and said softly.

A thin, middle-aged monk with a sharp temperament walked in.

"Hello, Senior Brother Zhou."

Lu Xuan stood up and saluted.

The name of the visitor was Zhou Qi, and he had perfected his foundation building skills. They were both disciples of the Sword Hall. They had entered the sword pool to get swords together, so they were close friends.

Lu Xuan learned from Shen Ye that this senior brother Zhou had tried to break through the realm of pill formation several times, but all ended in failure. He felt that there was no hope of promotion, so he gave up his ambition.

He is extremely powerful, and this time he will lead the team.

"Junior Brother Lu, are you practicing your skills?"

The middle-aged monk looked at Lu Xuan, his sharp features softened a bit.

Lu Xuan has a great reputation in the sword hall. Although his cultivation is only in the middle stage of foundation building and is far inferior to Zhou Qi, with his ability to cultivate sword grass and the third-grade wind and thunder sword grass condensation method he handed over, his status and potential are still there. Better than Zhou Qi.

"No, I just stared out the window in a daze for a while."

Lu Xuan smiled.

"I learned from other colleagues that Junior Brother has always stayed in the sect and focused on cultivating spiritual plants. This time he is going to an area thousands of miles away. I wonder how Junior Brother Lu will adapt?"

"A bit uneasy."

"After all, I'm just an ordinary, mediocre spiritual planter. My cultivation relies entirely on pills. I'm not good at fighting. I don't have rare magic weapons. The only thing I can use is the hard work of cultivating sword grass. A few sword techniques."

Lu Xuan's acting skills are extremely superb and he maintains his character as a spiritual planter very well.

"Junior Brother Lu, don't worry. If something happens, Senior Brother, I and other disciples will protect you, Junior Brother."

Zhou Qi smiled.

"Thank you very much, Senior Brother Zhou. Junior Brother, I can't thank you enough."

Lu Xuan quickly expressed his gratitude to the sharp middle-aged man.

"The city we are going to this time is called Black Star City. It is less than two thousand miles away from the Black Demon Abyss. There are often extraterrestrial demons and evil spirits running out of it and wreaking havoc in the city, causing great losses."

"The most serious one was when the city defense formation was directly breached by demons. The monks and ordinary people living inside were killed and injured less than half. It took several major sects to work together for a long time to clear them out."

"There are several sects' strongest forces that are fighting the demons and evil spirits on the front line. What we need to do is to protect the city and guard and clean up the sporadic demons and evil spirits that appear in Black Star City."

"Relatively speaking, it should be relatively safe."

Zhou Qi introduced the details of this guarding mission to Lu Xuan in detail.

"I can rest assured that."

Lu Xuan nodded slightly and said with a smile.

The dragon puppet flew extremely fast and arrived outside Black Star City in less than two days.

Lu Xuan flew out together with dozens of other Tianjian Sect monks and looked at the huge city in front of him.

The city is surrounded by a thick blue and black city wall. Various patterns are drawn on the surface of the bricks and stones. Aura emerges, and the entire city is enveloped in a huge aura shield.

Black Star City has been invaded by demons and evil spirits countless times, and everything is devastated. Many monks control flying swords, magic weapons fly around in the spiritual energy shield, and spiritual consciousness sweeps across Lu Xuan and others.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, you are finally here."

A tall young man with a burly body and bulging muscles flew out from the shield and looked at the monks of the Tianjian Sect headed by Zhou Qi, with a hint of relaxation in his tone.

"It's a long journey, fellow Taoists, please don't be offended."

"I wonder what the current situation is in Black Star City?"

Zhou Qi asked the tall young man.

According to Lu Xuan's keen spiritual perception, this tall young man with the surname Wan was at the same level as Zhou Qi, and he was also at the stage of perfect foundation building.

"It's okay so far. I just have to stay in the city from time to time and patrol the surroundings of the city every day."

"There are occasional alienation of monks and attacks by lurking demons in the city. It has never been peaceful."

"That's good."

Zhou Qi nodded and rushed to the huge spiritual energy shield together with the tall young man.

On the edge of the shield, three monks saluted him respectfully.

"Senior brother, to prevent evil spirits from sneaking into the city, I need to check on my senior fellow disciples and fellow Daoists of the Tianjian Sect. Please forgive me."

"It doesn't matter."

Zhou Qi readily agreed that he still had to go through the necessary procedures to prevent other sect monks from gossiping.

The monk took out a gray bronze mirror and shined it on everyone in the Tianjian Sect one by one in order.

The bronze mirror did not produce any strange phenomena, and Lu Xuan followed his fellow disciples into the city.
