You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 182

"For those, I'm not in a hurry to pursue," Lu Xuan said in a deep voice.

"I heard that after breaking through the foundation establishment, one can have their own mountain peak. If that's true, I can cultivate more and diverse spirit plants."

His eyes carried a hint of anticipation.

For him, things like spells, talismans, artifacts, and pills were not something he particularly pursued. Cultivating spirit plants and harvesting light orbs would naturally happen.

"So... Lu Big Brother, are you working so hard to break through to the foundation establishment realm for better conditions to cultivate spirit plants?" Bai Li Jianqing asked, tilting his head in disbelief.

"That's right."

Upon hearing Lu Xuan's affirmative answer, Bai Li Jianqing couldn't help but touch his forehead, looking helpless.

After a moment of silence, Bai Li Jianqing spoke first.

"Regarding breaking through the foundation establishment, there are many peculiar methods. Among them, Foundation Establishment Pills are the most common method. They play an indispensable role in the breakthrough process."

"Taking Foundation Establishment Pills, breaking through with the power of the pill, has the highest success rate, and the process is very simple and gentle. Most cultivators use this method."

"However, Foundation Establishment Pills are firmly controlled by major sects and forces. Only occasionally do pills circulate outside, and the pill formulas are considered core secrets by the sects."

"Foundation Establishment Pills are third-grade pills, not particularly expensive, but they are generally not available through normal channels for independent cultivators."

Bai Li Jianqing spoke slowly.

Lu Xuan nodded lightly, indicating his understanding. Sects and families holding Foundation Establishment Pills also control the majority of the promotion channels for independent cultivators. To break through to the foundation establishment realm, one must join a sect or family.

As a result, sects and families absorb those outstanding talents and continuously strengthen themselves.

"Once the spiritual power of the outer disciples in the sect accumulates enough, they can apply to the sect to break through to the foundation establishment realm."

"The first time they break through, the sect will provide a Foundation Establishment Pill free of charge. If they fail, the second time will be sold to Inner sect disciples at half price, and the third time will require full payment."

"In addition, when disciples attempt to break through, the sect will provide more conveniences, such as nurturing special spiritual veins, taking care of the body and mind before foundation establishment, and protection by senior cultivators."

"Of course, this is the ordinary way for disciples to break through. As for those with a strong background and extraordinary talent, besides Foundation Establishment Pills, there are various rare treasures to assist in the breakthrough. Some may even have experts in the Nascent Soul realm personally protecting them."

As Bai Li Jianqing spoke, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.

Lu Xuan nodded in agreement. Having an expert in the Nascent Soul realm protect him during the breakthrough was beyond his imagination.

After chatting for a while, Bai Li Jianqing suddenly asked:

"Lu Big Brother, there's a sword-fighting competition at the Sword Pavilion. Many fellow disciples proficient in the way of the sword have agreed to gather and exchange techniques. I plan to go there for a while; do you want to join and watch?"

"A sword-fighting competition at the Sword Pavilion?"

Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment. Since joining the sect, he rarely participated in the teachings and exchanges among disciples in the sect, only getting to know some fellow disciples through missions involving spirit plants and spirit beasts.

"It's quite exciting. If you're not interested in participating, you can watch on the sidelines."

"Then I'll go with you to take a look."

Lu Xuan smiled. He wasn't particularly interested in fighting, but watching a good fight was a different matter.

After a quick preparation, he activated a formation, covering the entire courtyard with thick white mist. Then, he and Bai Li Jianqing each rode a spiritual crane and headed to the Sword Pavilion.

The Sword Pavilion was located on the top of a several-hundred-feet-tall mountain peak, constructed from deep blue giant stones that were exceptionally tough, resisting normal attacks without leaving a mark.

Moreover, it had a certain self-healing ability, with cracks and pits capable of recovering on their own.

Leading Lu Xuan, Bai Li Jianqing arrived at a giant platform in the middle of the mountain top, where dozens of cultivators had gathered. Two people were currently sparring with swords, their sword qi soaring and intertwining.

"Lu Big Brother, wait here. I'll show you my skills later."

Bai Li Jianqing instructed Lu Xuan confidently before joining the crowd.

Lu Xuan nodded and found a place to sit down, curiously watching various battle scenes unfold.

"If only there were some melon-like spirit fruits; I could enjoy the show while munching on melon seeds."

He sighed with regret.

In the sect, there weren't many large-scale sparring sessions among disciples. Occasionally, some with similar interests or grudges would come to the Sword Pavilion to exchange techniques and fight.

Lu Xuan, always kind-hearted, had never had the chance to enter the Sword Pavilion.

On the stone platform, the battles became more and more intense, leaving Lu Xuan overwhelmed, unsure where to focus his attention.

Many fellow disciples indeed had extraordinary attainments in the way of the sword. Their sword qi differentiated, forming threads, giant sword techniques, like scenes from an epic film.

Lu Xuan even saw some cultivators summoning sword formations, with over ten flying swords shining in various changes, displaying a dazzling array of moves.

Comparing silently, although his Golden Sword Technique was only first-grade, due to absorbing a large number of experience packets, his mastery of the sword technique was equivalent to a master's level. Even among the many sword geniuses on the stone platform, he could rank at the forefront.

If he added the third-grade Xun Thunder Sword Pill lurking in his dantian, he could almost dominate the entire scene.

Thinking this, he enjoyed the show, watching Bai Li Jianqing, who had excellent swordsmanship, winning three consecutive matches and feeling proud of himself.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, he felt a movement in the storage bag around his waist. Extending his spiritual sense into it, he found a sword sheath trembling slightly in the corner.

"Why is this sword sheath suddenly reacting? Almost forgot about it."

Lu Xuan thought to himself. The sword sheath was attracted by the third-grade Xun Thunder Sword Pill in his body when he was forced into the secret realm by the Wang family in Linyang Fang Market.

At that time, both the head of the Wang family and a tricky-level skeleton were chasing after this item. He deduced that the sword sheath had an extraordinary origin but had not figured out its background, leaving it to collect dust in the storage bag.

Feeling the increasingly intense trembling of the ancient sword sheath, Lu Xuan sent a message to Bai Li Jianqing, who was resting not far away, then stood up and left.

Returning to his cave dwelling, he activated the Illusion Mist Formation, covering the courtyard in dense white fog. Then, he took out the mysterious sword sheath from the storage bag.

The sword sheath had an ancient and mottled style, showing signs of experiencing countless years.

Unfortunately, it had been hollow inside all along,

and he hadn't discovered any peculiar existence.

Lu Xuan held the sword sheath in his hand, feeling its increasingly rapid tremors.

"Why did it suddenly react like this? In the secret realm, it seemed to be attracted by the Xun Thunder Sword Pill in my body..."

Lu Xuan pondered for a moment. With a thought, several sword radiance shot out from his body, black energy coiling around them, and electric arcs faintly jumping on the sword blades.

The sword radiance suddenly turned, drilling into the gaps in the sword sheath.

The tip of the sword sheath tilted backward, emitting a clear sword hum, sounding joyful.

Seeing this, Lu Xuan concentrated his mind on the ancient sword sheath.

A thought flashed through his mind.

【Nurturing the Profound Sword Sheath, an unknown treasure forged from celestial sword stone. It can temper sword qi within it; the longer the time, the greater the power released by the sword qi.】

【It can also put a sword into the sheath, slowly refining the sword body, removing impurities, and enhancing the quality and rank of the sword.】

【Spiritual damage may occur.】

"Unknown treasure? What is this thing?"

Lu Xuan looked at the ancient sword sheath in his hand, filled with doubt.
