You Cultivate, I Farm - Chapter 320

Feeling the rich and abundant spiritual power within his body, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a myriad of emotions.
Reaching the mid-Foundation Establishment stage was something he wouldn't have dared to imagine before obtaining the white luminous orbs.
And now, in less than five years, he had broken through to the mid-stage, a speed not inferior to those geniuses in the Sky Sword Sect.
"Whether it's spiritual power or spiritual awareness, both have more than doubled compared to the early Foundation Establishment stage. Although the increase in physical strength is not as obvious, it has also been greatly enhanced."
Lu Xuan carefully felt the changes in his body after the breakthrough.
Then, he looked at the remaining dozen or so white luminous orbs in the spiritual field and picked them up one by one.
Out of more than 150 second-grade Water Firefly Grass, he left fifty for cultivation and harvested the rest.
This harvest was different from before.
In the past, he would wait until the progress bar below was completely full, but this time, as soon as the Water Firefly Grass reached maturity, he would harvest them all at once, collecting all the orbs.
Previously, this harvesting method was used to allow the spiritual plants to fully mature, maximizing the quality of the orbs obtained after maturity.
Due to the relatively sparse spiritual energy on the Empty Abyss Island compared to the Sky Sword Sect, improving other conditions would also be difficult to improve the quality of the Water Firefly Grass. Moreover, Lu Xuan's mindset was somewhat influenced by the secret realm, so he simply harvested them all at once.
Out of the more than 100 orbs harvested, around twenty brought cultivation rewards. However, due to the mostly ordinary quality of the Water Firefly Grass, the total cultivation rewards amounted to only twenty-seven years.
The remaining orbs mainly rewarded second-grade pills and talismans. Only a few high-quality Water Firefly Grass produced orbs containing experience packets for pill formulas and two third-grade spiritual treasures, the Waterwalk Pearls.
"With the remaining fifty Water Firefly Grass, I should be able to condense about two hundred seeds, which should be enough for cultivation with my mid-Foundation Establishment stage spiritual power."
If Water Firefly Grass could bring cultivation rewards in large quantities, Lu Xuan's cultivation would skyrocket. However, things didn't always go as planned.
Cultivating a single second-grade Water Firefly Grass was not as simple as planting it in the spiritual field. During the growth process, it required constant use of basic techniques such as Spirit Rain, Wood Growth, and Earth Attraction, which consumed a lot of time and spiritual power, let alone two hundred plants.
In addition, there were many high-grade spiritual plants in his cave, each with its own peculiar cultivation conditions, consuming quite a bit of energy.
High-grade spiritual plants could obtain high-grade rare treasures. Although Lu Xuan only wanted to quietly cultivate his fields, in the cultivation world, one often had to be prepared for anything and have various powerful means and treasures to ensure one's safety.
Water Firefly Grass provided cultivation, while other high-grade spiritual plants provided treasures. With both hands, Lu Xuan had to seize both opportunities.
Planting another batch of over two hundred would be his limit after the breakthrough.
"With my mediocre aptitude, I don't even know how many batches I'll need to plant to reach the late Foundation Establishment stage."
He sighed inwardly.
If he were to cultivate normally, he might not even see hope of breaking through to the late Foundation Establishment stage before his lifespan expired. It was only with the white luminous orbs that he was able to catch up with and even surpass those cultivation geniuses.
With his cultivation breakthrough, his life and safety were better guaranteed, and Lu Xuan's pace in patrolling the spiritual field became much easier.
The Demon Ghost Vine followed him, feeling his joyful mood, its gray vines rhythmically shaking up and down.
When he reached the edge of the pool, a boulder the size of a bathtub rolled towards Lu Xuan.
The boulder was dirty and gave off a filthy feeling.
As it reached Lu Xuan's feet, a blackish-gray turtle head suddenly popped out of the boulder, a pair of green-bean-like eyes rolling around, looking very lively.
"This Rock Shell Turtle rolls around in the mud pit every day and has become a mud turtle."
"Fat Bird, take care of your son, he's too dirty to look at."
Lu Xuan shouted towards the outside of the spiritual field.
A streak of green light flashed by, and the Rock Shell Turtle was grabbed by the Wind Falcon, with a bang, thrown into the pool.
Although the turtle looked bulky and heavy, it floated very lightly on the water.
The Wind Falcon flapped its light blue wings, creating a huge wave that crashed onto the muddy back of the Rock Shell Turtle.
The waves washed over, but the mud on the turtle's back was not washed away much, and Lu Xuan couldn't figure out how it merged with its body.
The Wind Falcon tilted its head, its eyes full of puzzlement. Unable to figure it out, it simply didn't think about it and flew away.
The little turtle played alone in the water, and the Azure-Horned Dragon Carp swam to its side, floating on the surface of the water, gently shaking its colorful fish tail.
The Azure-Horned Dragon Carp had a slender figure and graceful movements. Its two cyan fish whiskers swayed in the water, and the sharp horns on its head added a touch of extraordinary, contrasting sharply with the nearby dirty Rock Shell Turtle.
The two spiritual beasts, who had initially faced each other with hostility, now coexisted harmoniously in the small pool.
The Azure-Horned Dragon Carp even seemed to have a somewhat intimate relationship with the Rock Shell Turtle.
"This Azure-Horned Dragon Carp seems to be a bit... odd..."
Seeing this, Lu Xuan chuckled inwardly, no longer paying attention to the seemingly friendly Azure-Horned Dragon Carp and Rock Shell Turtle, and continued to inspect the spiritual plants in the spiritual field.
He arrived at an underground cavern.
The Earth Fire Heart Lotus was being washed by the scorching magma. The roots, composed of numerous irregular light red crystals, gently swayed in the magma, while the lotus leaves swayed along with them. On top of the crimson lotus seeds, there were more than ten bright red lotus seeds protruding.
"A fourth-grade Earth Fire Heart Lotus,
it's mature."
Lu Xuan looked at the completely filled translucent progress bar below and couldn't help but feel ecstatic.
He used his spiritual power to bring the Earth Fire Heart Lotus in front of him.
His palm turned into a color of glass, ignoring the remaining hot magma on the Earth Fire Heart Lotus plant, and directly plucked the red lotus seeds.
His mind focused on the pale red lotus seeds, and a thought floated in his mind.
【Earth Fire Heart Lotus, fourth-grade spiritual plant, grows in the environment of scorching magma, cultivated with second-grade or higher fire-element techniques.】
【After its seeds mature, they can purify the impure and contaminated aura within a cultivator's body, reduce the risk of cultivation deviation, and resist evil spirits when ingested for a certain period. Long-term consumption can enhance a cultivator's spiritual awareness.】
【The lotus leaves and roots can be used as materials for refining certain high-grade pills.】
"Good quality, it's already quite good."
"It can purify impure auras, reduce the risk of deviation, and even enhance a cultivator's spiritual awareness after repeated consumption. It's truly a fourth-grade spiritual plant."
In the process of cultivation and life, cultivators inevitably come into contact with impure and polluted spiritual energy. If they cannot be purified, unpredictable consequences may occur when breaking through realms, especially for those cultivators who hunt evil spirits for a long time. If various auras, evil auras, and impurities cannot be cleared in time, there will be a risk of falling into deviation.
The fourth-grade Earth Fire Heart Lotus seeds can solve these problems very well.
Not to mention, it can also enhance a cultivator's spiritual awareness.
Items that can enhance spiritual awareness in the cultivation world are extremely rare. Lu Xuan, who has cultivated so many spiritual plants, has obtained mature plants of this kind for the first time.
"I can finally strengthen my spiritual awareness."
Lu Xuan sighed. His physical strength, treasures, and techniques were far superior to those of the same level, but only his spiritual awareness was at an average level. With this Earth Fire Heart Lotus seed, he could finally target this weakness.
