You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 167

Lu Xuan focused his thoughts, directing his attention to the dragon vine in his hand.

"I remember getting a small piece of this dragon vine from the black market, then grafting it and successfully cultivating a mature plant."

"So, if I take a part from this vine, I could grow a new one."

"It's a pity; I only have two small sections to use. Otherwise, I could have sliced this vine into hundreds or thousands of pieces and crazily planted them for rewards..."

He fantasized in his mind.

With a thought, the Thunder Sword pills lurking in his dantian quivered slightly. Several black sword qi instantly shot out from his body, effortlessly cutting the ends of the dragon vine.

The cut parts were not long, only about three inches each.

Lu Xuan took the two sections of the dragon vine to the spiritual field, finding a blank area and using the Earth Drawing technique to plant them separately.

"From where they came, back to where they belong..."

"I wonder if planting the higher-quality parts of the dragon vine will affect its final maturity."

Lu Xuan surveyed the spiritual field, satisfying the subtle needs of each spiritual plant before returning to his room to contemplate the subtleties of the 'Transcendence of the Dragon' (Part I).

The next day, after checking the state of all the spiritual plants, he rode a spiritual crane to the stone house by the Thousand Dragon Lake.

Having obtained the beast meat, he arrived at the wooden platform.

The remaining dozens of dragon pythons were waiting eagerly in their respective areas, calmly gazing at Lu Xuan on the high platform with joy in their eyes.

After nurturing them for so long, these dragon pythons were most aware of their own changes and those of their peers.

Among their peers, the ice chi and double-headed dragons had ascended to third rank, while several first-rank ones had advanced to second rank. The effect of Lu Xuan's nurturing was evident.

Even those yet to advance felt the changes in their vitality and aura, becoming stronger and more stable. At the very least, when dealing with other dragon pythons vying for territory and resources in the surrounding waters, they seemed considerably more relaxed.

Lu Xuan quickly took out the customized beast meat from the huge wooden barrel and accurately threw it into each dragon python's designated area.

After they finished eating, Lu Xuan cleared his throat and spoke.

"Almost half a year has passed, and during this time, your growth and changes have pleased me."

"Some dragons have already reached new levels, and the rest of you are also outstanding. It's just a matter of time."

"To ensure your healthy growth, I've decided to conduct another blood test. Any objections?"

The dragon pythons, long tamed by Lu Xuan, shook their heads in unison, indicating no objections.

Lu Xuan descended, and a dragon python had already approached, experienced enough to relax its body and scales, allowing Lu Xuan to easily pierce it with a red-threaded needle.

A surge of hot and bright blood gushed out. Lu Xuan collected it in a white jade bottle, sealed it tightly, placed it in his storage bag, and took out a new one.

"Next."

The dragon pythons queued up methodically to donate blood.

"Junior Brother Lu, conducting another check-up on the dragons you nurture?"

Huang Yuan appeared out of nowhere, drifting to Lu Xuan's side with a smile on his face.

"Yes, just a routine check to see if there are any hidden issues or foreign parasites that might affect these young dragons' health."

Lu Xuan explained while skillfully drawing blood.

"It's only with your meticulous care and dedication that such outstanding dragons can be nurtured," Huang Yuan sighed.

"It's my duty as a junior brother," Lu Xuan replied calmly.

As he chatted with Huang Yuan, Lu Xuan continued drawing blood proficiently.

From Huang Yuan, he learned that the anorexic ink-scaled dragon's condition had greatly improved.

"Oh, by the way, Junior Brother Lu, as you're adept at cultivating spiritual plants, Senior Brother Yang wanted me to ask if you have any spirit fruits suitable for daily consumption by ink-scaled dragons. If you have them, he's willing to purchase them at a high price."

Huang Yuan whispered to Lu Xuan.

"Spirit fruits suitable for third-rank ink-scaled dragons? I do have some in stock, but they're just ordinary spirit fruits sold by weight. Only the second-rank ice pine fruits are presentable, but they're in limited quantity and will take some time to mature."

Lu Xuan thought to himself before replying.

"I'm sorry, I don't have any spirit fruits suitable for third-rank ink-scaled dragons."

Once all the dragon pythons had finished donating blood, the two of them returned to the stone house.

Inside the house, several outer disciples were sitting, discussing something in low voices. Upon seeing the two enter, they all showed enthusiastic smiles.

"Huang Senior Brother, Lu Junior Brother."

"Lu Junior Brother, this time, the nurturing period seems longer than usual. Have more dragon pythons made breakthroughs?"

"Definitely, with Junior Brother Lu's guidance, aiding their breakthroughs is as simple as eating and drinking."

"Junior Brother Lu, that's an exaggeration. There haven't been any breakthroughs; I just wanted to conduct a check-up on them, which took some time."

Lu Xuan greeted everyone with a smile.

Since he began nurturing the dragon pythons in the Thousand Dragon Lake, people's attitudes toward him had shifted multiple times.

Initially, they treated him as an equal fellow disciple.

Following Lu Xuan's taming of all the dragon pythons, they held an overwhelming advantage when facing other dragon pythons in the water, often leading to injuries among the others. This naturally brewed resentment toward Lu Xuan, but lacking evidence to prove that the group fights were his directive, they had to bury their grievances.

As Lu Xuan's dragon pythons continued to advance, envy grew among the others. They attempted to emulate him, but without his precise control over the dragons' needs, their efforts were futile.

Moreover, with this ability as a foundation, along with his benevolence and authority in taming all the dragon pythons, any lingering jealousy or grudges dissipated when they learned that Lu Xuan had helped solve a major problem for Senior Uncle Yang.

"I wonder what kind of test Junior Brother is conducting?" a cultivator asked, puzzled.

During the last large-scale blood collection, only Huang Yuan was present, and Lu Xuan wasn't well-known at that time, so no one paid attention.

"Just a blood test to verify if there are any hidden issues," Lu Xuan said lightly, placing the wooden barrel in a corner.

"I see."

They nodded thoughtfully.

'Could this be the reason why his dragon pythons are progressing so rapidly?'

They all had similar thoughts.

Suddenly, a handsome young cultivator seemed to make a decision, stepping forward and bowing to Lu Xuan.

"Junior Brother Lu, let me get a test too!"

His action immediately sparked a chain reaction, with the remaining people fearing to miss out on a great opportunity, all bowing to Lu Xuan.

"Junior Brother Lu, please also check my dragons!"

"If there's an issue, feel free to inform me."

"My dragon's blood is thick; you can draw as much as you want!"
