You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 359: Sword Peacock

After the departure of the cold-looking female cultivator, Lu Xuan examined the Sword Peacock she had handed to him.

This strain of sword grass was distinctive, able to contract and expand like a peacock spreading its feathers.

When expanded, it seemed as if numerous substantial sword energies were differentiating, and when contracted, it resembled a cyan-colored flying sword, albeit slightly thicker than ordinary sword grass.

At this moment, the Sword Peacock didn't look too good. Faint black qi lingered around the sword body, impervious to purification spells or talismans.

There were also patches of varying sizes of black spots on the sword body, tightly adhering to the sword grass, wandering around unpredictably, as if imbued with life.

Lu Xuan roughly understood the situation of Su Manman's Sword Peacock and was about to go find Shen Ye when a familiar voice sounded from beside him.

"Junior Brother Lu is quite fortunate. I didn't expect you to be acquainted with Junior Sister Su. It seems like your relationship is quite profound," Shen Ye, with a gentle temperament, walked out from around the corner with a deep black sword box on his back, wearing a slight smile on his face.

"Junior Sister Su is the daughter of one of our sect's Core Formation Elders. If Junior Brother Lu can become her Dao companion, then the future will be limitless," Shen Ye teased with a hint of jest in his expression.

"Senior Brother Shen, please don't tease me," Lu Xuan replied. "Junior Sister Su and I have enormous differences in background, talents, and cultivation level. Such a scenario would only appear in folk tales."

"Besides, I devote all my attention to nurturing spiritual plants and raising spirit beasts. I don't have the time to consider such matters."

Lu Xuan smiled wryly as he spoke. Due to the influence of the white light orb, he harbored many secrets. If he accidentally stumbled upon a Dao companion and had to explain, it wouldn't be easy.

Therefore, he currently had no thoughts of romance.

"Alright, let's stop joking around. Did Junior Brother come here this time to obtain sword grass seeds or to deliver sword grass?" Shen Ye's expression became serious as he asked.

"The sword grass seeds I obtained from the Sword Hall before are mostly mature now. I came here this time to deliver them to the hall," Lu Xuan replied.

After entering the Sword Hall, one could obtain sword grass seeds of various grades for free, but after cultivating them, they needed to be delivered to the hall to prevent the sword grass from being lost to the outside world.

If the loss rate during cultivation was too high, the Sword Hall would send fellow disciples to investigate, which would also affect the subsequent supply of seeds.

The delivered sword grass would be evaluated by the hall based on quantity, grade, and quality, determining the supply of seeds for the next round. If the performance was outstanding, various rare treasures would be rewarded.

Lu Xuan took out the mature sword grass from his storage bag.

Ten ordinary second-grade sword grasses, one third-grade Starlight Sword Grass, and two third-grade Wind and Thunder Sword Grasses.

"Ten second-grade sword grasses, seven ordinary quality, three good quality," Shen Ye counted the sword grasses Lu Xuan brought out.

"One third-grade Starlight Sword Grass. Looking at its appearance, Junior Brother Lu's proficiency in the Starlight Sword Art is not shallow."

"It's because of diligent practice," Lu Xuan replied with a smile.

Indeed, for better cultivation of this Starlight Sword Grass, he didn't know how many times he had to unleash Starlight Sword Qi every day. Only through diligence could he achieve the effect he had today.

"Two transformed Wind and Thunder Sword Grasses. It seems that Junior Brother has indeed mastered the method to stably improve ordinary sword grasses," Shen Ye remarked as he looked at the two deep black sword grasses containing the power of wind and thunder.

"I remember that you took away twenty ordinary sword grass seeds from the Sword Hall back then. Now, you've obtained ten second-grade sword grasses and two third-grade Wind and Thunder Sword Grasses. That's already quite good."

He thought that the other seeds had all been lost during the improvement process.

However, he also knew that transformed sword grasses were not easy to obtain, so he still admired Lu Xuan greatly.

"Uh, Senior Brother Shen, the remaining sword grasses are still alive for now. I'm just exploring whether I can find a way to condense the seeds," Lu Xuan said truthfully.

He had always hidden deeply in terms of cultivation treasures, but he didn't mind revealing his talent in spiritual plants. Such talent would not endanger others. On the contrary, it could bring immense benefits to the sect. As long as he didn't let others know about the white light orb and his grasp of the state of spiritual plants, there wouldn't be much of a problem.

The better his talent in spiritual plants appeared, the easier it would be for him to obtain various high-grade spiritual plants from the sect and unlock more rewarding orbs, forming a virtuous cycle.

"What did you say, Junior Brother?" Shen Ye, who had always been relaxed, widened his eyes suddenly.

"Are you saying that besides the other sword grass seeds still being alive, you have even succeeded in transforming the Wind and Thunder Sword Grasses and are now researching how to condense the seeds?!" He sounded incredulous.

"It's still in the exploration stage, but there's some progress," Lu Xuan cautiously replied.

He had interacted with Shen Ye many times, and Shen Ye understood his cautious character to some extent. He knew that if Lu Xuan didn't have great confidence, he wouldn't leak this information to him.

Lu Xuan rubbed his chin and chuckled.

"If Junior Brother Lu really manages to research the method to condense the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass seeds, as long as the Sword Hall ensures its effectiveness and can obtain a large number of Wind and Thunder Sword Grass seeds in batches, Junior Brother will have made a great contribution!"

"The hall will definitely reward you generously."

After calming down, Shen Ye said to Lu Xuan.

"After fully mastering it, I'll come to find Senior Brother Shen," Lu Xuan promised Shen Ye.

After having multiple dealings with him, Shen Ye had some understanding of Lu Xuan's cautious character. Knowing that if Lu Xuan didn't have great confidence, he wouldn't leak this information to him.

Lu Xuan would naturally return the favor for Shen Ye's kindness.

"Thank you so much, Junior Brother," Shen Ye said solemnly, arching his hand.

Currently, there were nearly twenty methods for condensing third-grade sword grass seeds in the Sword Hall. If a new method for condensing third-grade sword grass seeds could really be obtained, Lu Xuan's position in the Sword Hall would skyrocket. As the recommender, Shen Ye would also gain some benefits.

"By the way, Senior Brother Shen, I just learned from chatting with Junior Sister Su that the Sword Peacock, a fourth-grade sword grass, does the hall currently have the corresponding seeds?" Lu Xuan asked Shen Ye.

"Yes, we do!" Shen Ye hurriedly replied.

"There's a stored Sword Peacock seed in the treasure vault. Originally kept as a precaution, but if Junior Brother needs it, I'll immediately apply to the Core Formation Elder of the hall."

"After some time, when

the sword grass seeds you've brought here are appraised and you're rewarded, I'll get a Sword Peacock seed for you. How about that?"

Shen Ye proposed after a brief consideration.

"Many thanks to Senior Brother Shen," Lu Xuan replied gratefully.

He had just thought of how to obtain the Sword Peacock seed when Shen Ye proposed it, saving him the trouble.

"You're welcome, Junior Brother Lu. Since we're fellow disciples of the same sect, we should help each other," Shen Ye replied with a smile.

At this moment, a figure quickly flew over from a distance, shouting, "Shen Ye, Shen Ye, something bad has happened!"

Seeing the panicked look on the other person's face, Shen Ye's expression instantly changed, asking, "What happened? Slow down and speak clearly!"

Lu Xuan was also curious about what had happened and asked Shen Ye with concern.
