You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 330: Advantage Lies with Me

Outside the mysterious palace.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator hurriedly flew over from a distance and landed outside the palace entrance.

Having tangled with the Ice Illusion Toad demon beasts in the deep dark waters for a long time and been delayed by the strange stone array, he was keenly aware that he had fallen far behind others. Anxious as he was, he only wished to enter the palace as quickly as possible.

The remnants of many formations and prohibition auras lingered in the passage, likely left by the cultivators who first entered the palace to break through the restrictions.

Scanning the passage with his spiritual sense and finding no anomalies, the cultivator swiftly flew towards the interior of the palace.

Suddenly, a cold sword light slashed towards him, cracking the defensive artifact on his body deeply. Two early Foundation Establishment cultivators, who knows from where, launched a surprise attack, sandwiching him.

Two against one, it was another ambush, attempting to enter the palace. The cultivator was effortlessly dealt with after just a brief encounter.

"That's the second one."

The two assailants, one in grey and the other one-eyed with a black cloth wrapped around his blind eye emitting a faint black aura, lamented as they searched the dead cultivator's belongings.

"It's unavoidable. There are too many strong Foundation Establishment cultivators entering the palace this time. With our strength, we can only serve as cannon fodder. It's better to use cunning tactics to obtain treasures."

The man in grey weighed the storage bag in his hand, taking out a heap of talismans and pills.

"Indeed, the cultivators entering the secret realm are only focused on entering the palace as quickly as possible, without expecting someone to resist the temptation and ambush them at the entrance."

"Failing to obtain the opportunity themselves, they become our opportunity instead."

The one-eyed cultivator chuckled, the black aura leaking out from under the black cloth growing denser.

"It's also fortunate that you have that artifact for concealment, friend. It allowed us to gain the upper hand and catch them off guard, easily eliminating the targets entering the palace."

The two praised each other.

"But we still need to be cautious. Although my concealment artifact is good, it's difficult to have an effect against mid-Foundation Establishment or sect disciples' perception."

The two split the spoils of war such as talismans and pills, with the one-eyed cultivator saying coldly.

"Naturally, mid to late Foundation Establishment cultivators, even if we successfully ambush them, can't be easily killed."

"And those sect disciples, with their various strange techniques and treasures, are difficult to ambush. Therefore, we can only target those from small families or independent cultivators at the early Foundation Establishment stage."

"We can't linger here too long. While the cultivators entering the palace haven't come out yet, let's kill another fat lamb and then leave the secret realm."

"Agreed."

The two individuals were covered in a layer of silvery white gauze, with spiritual energy surging on the gauze, covering their figures and disappearing.

Unbeknownst to them, above their heads, a crack quietly appeared in the void, and a grey-white pupil squeezed out from the crack, capturing every move of the two individuals.

"I didn't expect such traps at the entrance of the mysterious palace."

Lu Xuan's expression was cold as he looked at the scenes reflected by the Void Nightmare Eye in his hand. The two Foundation Establishment cultivators who ambushed others at the entrance of the passage were quite resourceful, actually giving up the huge opportunity right in front of them and cleverly seizing the psychological weakness of other cultivators to successfully ambush them.

"Should I pass through that passage?"

Lu Xuan rubbed his chin.

"The entire palace is arranged with prohibitions. The restrictions in that passage were broken by the cultivators who entered first."

"If I want to bypass those two, enter through another passage, it will take more time, and if I'm unlucky, I'll have to break the restrictions myself."

"The two laid ambushes in the passage, and their strength lies in catching others off guard. But now, they have become my pawns. I can completely take advantage of their hidden flaws and ambush them first."

"With their strength, I can easily deal with them."

With this thought in mind, Lu Xuan made a decisive decision and planned to forcefully charge through the passage.

If the two had some foresight, he would pretend not to notice. If they sought their own demise and attacked, he would take the opportunity to eliminate them.

Outside the passage.

Lu Xuan controlled a sword light, stumbling and stopping at the entrance of the passage.

His eyes were covered with a layer of faint spiritual light. With the Illusion Breaking Eye Technique, the two early Foundation Establishment cultivators hidden in the silvery-white gauze could not escape his notice, and their vague figures could be vaguely seen.

Lu Xuan's performance was extremely realistic. First, he surveyed the surroundings of the passage entrance, confirming that there were no ambushes, and then cautiously entered the passage.

As he approached the mysterious palace, the caution on his face quickly disappeared, replaced by a relaxed joy.

Under the silvery-white gauze, the middle-aged man in grey and the one-eyed cultivator glanced at each other and instantly understood each other's thoughts.

They were quite familiar with Lu Xuan and knew that he was an inner disciple stationed on this desolate island for the Sky Sword Sect.

So, at first sight of Lu Xuan, they subconsciously wanted to let him pass.

But they immediately recalled the evaluations of other Foundation Establishment cultivators towards Lu Xuan: always associating with spiritual plants, neglecting cultivation, and lacking ambition.

Thinking of this, their minds became active again.

Being from a major sect meant possessing many treasures.

Being a cultivator specializing in spiritual plants meant not being good at combat. It could be foreseen that he hadn't experienced many life-and-death trials. Faced with a sudden attack, he might panic.

Moreover, with only early Foundation Establishment cultivation...

The advantage is mine, steady!

The two exchanged a glance.

The spiritual energy in their bodies surged madly, and the one-eyed cultivator suddenly removed the cover of the silvery-white gauze, revealing Lu Xuan's clear back to the two big fat sheep in their eyes.

Flying swords, talismans, and all kinds of attacks surged towards the two big fat sheep in their eyes.

As soon as their figures appeared, they heard a sharp sword howl in their ears.

Countless deep black sword intents swept towards them like raging waves!

The momentum was grand, like heavenly might, leaving no escape and no defense!

"Friend, spare us..."

Before the two could plead for mercy

, they were buried in the sea-like endless sword intents.

As the sword qi dissipated, the passage was clean, with occasional spots of dark red flesh and fragments of artifacts. If one did not look carefully, it would be difficult to notice.

"Well, it's just right to use up this fourth-grade Howling Sea Sword Talisman."

Lu Xuan's hand, a non-gold, non-jade-shaped talisman resembling a sword tip, quietly disintegrated and fell to the ground.

This fourth-grade Howling Sea Sword Talisman was the first reward obtained from the Sword Gourd. In the Land Blessed Land, in order to compete for the Phoenix Wood, most of the sword qi inside was used up.

This time, in order to end the battle quickly without wasting time on these two assailants, Lu Xuan also used the remaining half of the sword qi in the Howling Sea Sword Talisman.

In this way, there were four fourth-grade sword talismans left.

"It's a pity for the artifacts and talismans on their bodies."

Although it was unlikely that the two had any rare treasures, every little bit counts. Lu Xuan looked at the place where the two had been annihilated with regret, then his figure flickered like a floating light as he flew towards the interior of the palace.
