You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 361: Jade Dew Fruit

The Azure Mountain Jade Talismans, crafted from the essence of Azure Mountain jade, possess the power to ward off evil and can be used directly as protective magical artifacts or for inscribing runes.

After the Jade Scale Fruits matured, Lu Xuan still had two Azure Mountain Jade Talismans in hand, along with a piece of Purity Jade hanging around his neck.

However, considering the slightly lower grade of the Purity Jade and his familiarity with using it, he had no intention of employing it to absorb the malicious yin qi.

"The idea of using a fourth-grade Azure Mountain Jade Talisman to absorb those foul qi..."

A moment of hesitation flickered through Lu Xuan's mind, only to vanish instantly.

The Azure Cloud Token given by Su Manman solidified his determination to seek protection under the sect, simplifying many cumbersome steps. Using an Azure Mountain Jade Talisman to repay her was only proper.

More importantly, a fourth-grade Azure Mountain Jade Talisman wasn't particularly rare for him. If needed, he could simply cultivate more spiritual plants and open a luminous orb to obtain another.

With this thought, he placed the exquisite talisman beside the damaged Sword Peacock.

His mind guided the dark qi swirling around the Sword Peacock.

The dark qi, seemingly attracted by the Azure Mountain Jade Talisman, approached the exquisite talisman slowly, a part of it that had remained immovable despite various attempts.

Under Lu Xuan's spiritual control, the separated dark qi gradually permeated the talisman, clearly visible within the crystalline token.

Once inside the Azure Mountain Jade Talisman, the malicious yin qi lost its earlier arrogance and stayed obediently within the talisman.

Observing this, Lu Xuan cast a purification mantra towards the talisman, slowly dissolving that tiny bit of malicious yin qi.

After the qi dissipated, Lu Xuan keenly noticed the talisman's crystal color dim slightly.

"First resolve the qi surrounding the sword body, then consider the qi infiltrating the sword. From the outside in, proceed gradually."

Lu Xuan thought, realizing that restoring the Sword Peacock was a task requiring patience and time, yet he felt no impatience.

Returning to his room, his mind was filled with various information about the "Sword Peacock Formation," delving into it to grasp the fundamentals as soon as possible, so he could start cultivating fourth-grade Sword Peacocks.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, with Lu Xuan cultivating spiritual plants and nurturing spiritual animals day after day, ensuring the best growth conditions for the spiritual flora and fauna in his dwelling. The prospect of rewards from the luminous orb made the mundane task of farming enjoyable.

Cultivating spiritual plants and animals to obtain various treasures and opportunities, without risking life and limb exploring secret realms or competing with cultivators and demon beasts for chances, was a life too good to be true.

In his spare time, he also practiced cultivation.

Although he was well aware of his mediocre talent in cultivation, he would occasionally engage in cultivating the "Great Five Elements Art" for some mental comfort when gaining cultivation levels.

To better cultivate the two fourth-grade Sword Grasses, he spent considerable time on the "Sword Peacock Array" and the "Thousand Owls Sword Technique."

Occasionally, he would meditate on the "Pure Yang True Fire Scroll," take a bath in Flood Dragon essence blood, and practice the "Great Void Dragon Transformation" to strengthen his physical body.

He regularly consumed an eye from the Hundred-Eyed Enigmatic Wood to hasten his cultivation of the "Illusion Breaking Eye Technique." As the accumulation of peculiar qi in his body increased, he would use a seed from the Earth Fire Heart Lotus to purify his body and slightly enhance his spiritual consciousness.

Enjoying fourth-grade treasures as if they cost no spirit stones, at his current stage of Foundation Establishment, was extravagance to an extreme.

But it couldn't be helped; the rewards from the luminous orb were too abundant, necessitating some utilization.

One day, Guan Wan came to his dwelling to deliver seeds.

Their previous collaboration had been very satisfying; the Hidden Essence Grass Lu Xuan cultivated not only survived but some exceeded her expectations. Thus, the Pill Hall was willing to continue this cooperative model of entrusting him with cultivating spiritual plants.

"Junior Brother Lu, sorry to have kept you waiting. It's not easy to obtain third-grade spiritual seeds in a short amount of time, especially with the demand from other alchemists and spiritual plant masters. Even the Agricultural Hall needs time to prepare."

"As soon as I got the seeds, I brought them over," Guan Wan said softly.

"A little wait is nothing, I appreciate Sister Guan taking this to heart."

Lu Xuan gestured dismissively.

"If Junior Brother wishes to cultivate Hidden Essence Grass or other spiritual plants again, just let me know in advance," Guan Wan changed the topic.

"This time, I've brought

more seeds than last time, including thirty seeds of Hidden Essence Grass and ten seeds of Jade Dew Fruit, both main ingredients for Foundation Establishment Pills."

After witnessing Lu Xuan's prowess in cultivating spiritual plants, the Pill Hall's evaluation of him rose significantly, willing to entrust him with more high-grade spiritual seeds for cultivation.

"Thank you, Sister Guan," Lu Xuan said, pleased.

Third-grade spiritual plants, crucial for Foundation Establishment and main ingredients for Foundation Establishment Pills, receiving so many seeds at once was quite fortunate.

"These are all the seeds, please take a look," Guan Wan presented forty seeds, floating towards Lu Xuan.

The thirty seeds of Hidden Essence Grass were slender, grey-brown in appearance, and looked utterly ordinary, like seeds condensed from roadside weeds.

Yet Lu Xuan knew that these seeds harbored an extremely pure and rich essence of vegetation, hence the name Hidden Essence Grass.

The other ten seeds, at first glance, looked like ten drops of silver-white dew, lustrous and emitting a fresh aura.

"With more seeds this time, including the previously given Five-Element Fruits, the task is even more challenging. Thank you for your hard work, Junior Brother," Guan Wan said with a smile, seeing Lu Xuan accepting all the seeds.

"It's no trouble at all. Being able to do even a little for the many alchemists like Sister Guan in the Pill Hall is my honor," Lu Xuan said, his lips curving into a smile, looking at the forty seeds in his hands as if seeing forty white luminous orbs slowly taking shape.

Thirty Hidden Essence Grass could yield Foundation Establishment Pills, Spirit Grass Pearls, and Foundation Establishment Pill formulas. With ten additional rewards from the unknown Jade Dew Fruits, being paid by the Pill Hall to freely enjoy luminous orbs, how could he find it hard?

After Guan Wan left, he couldn't wait to go to the spiritual field.

A fine crack appeared in the spirit soil before him, accepting a seed of Jade Dew Fruit.

His mind focused on the seed, resembling dew.

Jade Dew Fruit, a third-grade spiritual plant, requires high-quality spiritual qi mist for growth, enhancing the plant's development.

Jade Dew Fruits absorb and store morning dew within their stems or fruits. Upon maturation, they contain pure spiritual power, serving as a main ingredient for Foundation Establishment Pills or can be consumed directly as spiritual fruits.

"Jade Dew Fruit, Jade Scale Fruit, a single character difference, yet their cultivation methods and effects are vastly different."

Lu Xuan pondered. He had previously cultivated a type of spiritual fruit known as Jade Scale Fruit, which grows in jade spirit mineral areas, enhancing physique and used in crafting body-refining pills.

In contrast, Jade Dew Fruits require misted spiritual qi for cultivation, focusing more on enhancing a cultivator's spiritual power.
