I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 1275: Revised: Chapter 1272 The Struggle of Sword Child

After cultivating numerous Sword Grasses in the Cave Mansion Spirit Field, Lu Xuan entered his Personal Spatial space.

During the time White Lotus Avatar was out, the numerous High Rank Spirit Plants inside were meticulously nurtured by the main body, so there was no need to worry about their growth being affected.

“Master, I’ll go find those two old fellows first!”

The White Ape smiled as it spoke behind him.

It had not sparred with the Thunder Dragon Behemoth and Green Mountain Scale for so long that it felt uneasy, and had been eager to come back in to see if those old rivals had made any progress.

Lu Xuan nodded, and his body merged directly into the Spirit Soil.

In the deepest part of the space, a Ninth Grade Xuanhuang Tree was planted.

After decades of nurturing, the Xuanhuang Tree was still a small sapling, with black and yellow intertwining on its surface, merging perfectly with the Personal Spatial space.

Lu Xuan’s mind stirred, and the original breath he had refined from the Langyue Blessed Land enveloped his fingers, then instantly fused into the sapling.

At once, the two merged into one. For a fleeting moment, it seemed as if he saw a Sky-Piercing Giant Tree’s shadow blend with the entire space, indistinguishable from one another.

Feeling the vigorous vitality emanating from the Xuanhuang Tree, Lu Xuan felt satisfied and withdrew.

“Come over here, I brought back a good Treasure Item for you.”

Using his Divine Sense, he locked onto the Wind Listening Beast, which was wandering invisibly in the space, and summoned it.

A wild wind swept over quickly, and the Wind Listening Beast’s body emerged from the gale and jumped onto Lu Xuan’s shoulder.

Lu Xuan stretched out his hand to pat it, and a blue-black lantern appeared before the Wind Listening Beast.

The lantern spun rapidly, as if condensed from a Spirit Wind, containing extremely pure wind-attribute Spiritual Power. It was the Quasi Seventh-grade wind-attribute Strange Treasure, the Wind Lord Lantern, given by the Xuanfeng Star Master.

At the sight of the blue-black lantern, the Wind Listening Beast couldn’t help but feel an intense sense of kinship, its eyes sparkling as it transformed into a gust of breeze and rushed into the Wind Lord Lantern.

Lu Xuan watched the strange Spirit Beast playfully move within the Wind Lord Lantern and nodded slightly, allowing the lantern to float into the sky.

He then dashed to the area where he had previously merged the Settling Wind Pearl.

This region had been nourished by the Settling Wind Pearl for many years, making the wind-attribute Spiritual Power abnormally lively, suitable for planting the Seventh Grade Scorching Wheel Grass.

After planting the Scorching Wheel Grass and carefully inspecting the other High Rank Spirit Plants in his Personal Spatial space, Lu Xuan returned to his Cave Abode.

“Providing Sword Talismans and Sword Liquid, instructing disciples, refining Essence Spirit Pills… There’s still a lot to do after returning.”

Lu Xuan quickly entered a busy phase.

On this day, while he was cultivating Sword Grass in the Spirit Field, he heard the familiar voice of the True Sword Master outside his Cave Abode.

“Junior Brother Lu, are you in the Cave Abode?”

“Apologies for not greeting you sooner, Senior Brother.”

Lu Xuan’s body flashed, instantly appearing outside the Cave Abode.

“I heard you’ve finished your seclusion. Did you gain any insights?”

The True Sword Master asked with a smile.

“I’ve been comprehending a few High Rank Sword Techniques from the “Dongxuan Sword Scripture” over the past few years, and my understanding of Sword Dao has furthered.”

Lu Xuan casually fibbed.

“Well then, while cultivating Spirit Plants is important, one must not neglect one’s practice.”

“If you have time, Junior Brother, you can come find me directly, or exchange cultivation insights and Sword Dao Divine Powers with other sect members.”

The True Sword Master smiled and nodded, showing great friendliness towards Lu Xuan.

This was, after all, the precious disciple of the Huanzhen Sword Peak, and he naturally had to be cherished to prevent being poached by other sword peaks.

“Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother.”

Lu Xuan cupped his hands in gratitude.

“By the way, I came to inform you of an important matter.”

“Please, go ahead, Senior Brother.”

“How much do you know about our sect’s True Sword Disciples?”

Lu Xuan pondered for a moment and then said thoughtfully:

“I know a little, but I seldom interact with them, mostly just with Senior Brother Mo Yuanfeng, and I’ve also met Senior Brothers He Qingping and Zhu Shan.”

“You’ve been staying in your Cave Abode for years, and the True Sword Disciples of the Sword Sect are all focused on cultivation and ignore worldly matters. It’s indeed difficult to meet other Sword Peak disciples.”

“This time, I came to ask if you’re willing to compete for the position of True Sword Disciple?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan was taken aback: “Do I qualify for that, Senior Brother?”

The True Sword Disciples, who are as rare as phoenix feathers in the Dongxuan Sword Sect, receive immense resources from the sect and typically become Sword Masters, or even have the potential to advance to Great Deity of the Spirit Transformation.

“Junior Brother Lu, don’t belittle yourself. Since advancing to Nascent Soul, your cultivation journey has been smooth, and your aptitude has greatly improved, so you have a very high chance.”

The True Sword Master said kindly.

“You flatter me, Senior Brother. But what are the specific selection criteria?”

Lu Xuan asked out of curiosity.

“The sect usually holds a selection every two to three hundred years. The criteria include many aspects, but the most important are talent and strength, followed by temperament, fortune, Sword Dao accomplishments, and contributions to the sect.”

“The candidates are generally young Nascent Soul disciples from various sword peaks. At less than three hundred years old, and being a Mid Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, you rank in the top three among this generation’s young disciples.”

“As for Spiritual Constitution and aptitude, by refining that Immaculate Spirit Wood into your body, you have greatly narrowed the gap with those one-in-a-billion cultivation geniuses.”

“In terms of Sword Dao, being able to cultivate and even improve many High Rank Sword Grasses demonstrates your profound Sword Dao accomplishments, almost at the masterful level.”

“As for contributions, there’s no need to say much. Just the Life-taking Prison Suppressing Sword Grass has already made its mark in the Sword Sect’s history, putting you far ahead of other competitors.”

The True Sword Master analyzed in detail, expressing his full confidence in Lu Xuan.

“Becoming a True Sword Disciple allows you to enjoy benefits far beyond those of ordinary Primordial Infant True Monarchs.”

“The sect’s top Cultivation Techniques, Divine Skills, and Treasure Items will be prioritized for the True Sword Disciples, and they can even be personally mentored and protected by the sect’s ancestors, as well as practice long-term in the Dongxuan Realm.”

“Moreover, the Seventh and Eighth Grade Sword Grass Spiritual Seeds in the sect are mostly produced in the Dongxuan Realm. Junior Brother Lu, you may go there to nurture and collect them yourself.”

The True Sword Master offered a reason that Lu Xuan could not refuse.

“Seventh, Eighth Grade Sword Grass Spiritual Seeds…”

Lu Xuan’s heart stirred, and he made up his mind immediately.

“Thanks to the sect’s consideration, I am willing to represent Huanzhen Sword Peak and compete for the position of True Sword Disciple. I will not disappoint your expectations, Senior Brother.”

Lu Xuan said earnestly.

“With those words, I am relieved. Huanzhen Sword Peak producing a new True Sword Disciple would greatly benefit the peak.”

The True Sword Master’s face showed a look of gratification.

“There are still several years before the selection of new True Sword Disciples. You can prepare well during this time. If you need anything, feel free to ask me.”

“Sure, thank you, Senior Brother.”

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

After informing Lu Xuan of the news, the True Sword Master did not stay long and took his leave.

“True Sword Disciple…”

“I never thought that as a mere cultivator, I would have a significant chance to become a True Sword Disciple in the renowned Dongxuan Sword Sect.”

Lu Xuan laughed and shook his head. Becoming a True Sword Disciple, if nothing else, means he would have a significant advantage in obtaining the High Rank Sword Grass Spiritual Seeds from the Dongxuan Realm. This opportunity was something he was determined to seize.
