You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 395: Flesh Spirit Deity

Although Lu Xuan didn't discern any peculiarities in the dark red stone, recalling the Demon Ghost Vine's past achievements, he had full confidence in it. "This is the core area of the cave, supposedly already searched by several Core Formation elders. This dark red stone's location isn't exactly hidden; it must be that its mysteries were overlooked."

After sweeping his spiritual sense around and judging that the Core Formation elders had missed it, Lu Xuan nonchalantly stored the dark red stone in his storage bag. Having pocketed it, he outwardly remained calm but was somewhat apprehensive inside, continuing his search in the dark red passage. Only after noticing that the Core Formation elders showed no reaction for a long time did he fully relax. "Well, lingering here serves no purpose; it's time to return to the sect." The voice of the lean elder from the Divine Peaks Sect echoed throughout the cave. Hearing this, cultivators from the three sects quickly gathered around the Core Formation elders.

Following Gu Jiankong and another elder, the Sky Sword Sect cultivators exited the cave and emerged on the surface. "I'm about to break the blessed land's spatial barrier. Follow closely and don't cause any trouble," Gu Jiankong instructed mildly before a tiny invisible sword flew out from the sword energy surrounding him.

The sword energy expanded exponentially in a blink, piercing through the dark red sky of the blessed land. Witnessing this, Lu Xuan quickly gathered his spirits, allowing Gu Jiankong and the other Core Formation elder to whisk him into the high skies.

After an indeterminate amount of time, feeling somewhat dazed, Lu Xuan finally felt solid ground beneath his feet. Shaking his head to alleviate the splitting headache, he opened his eyes to find himself back in the Sky Sword Sect's inner sect, standing quietly within a teleportation array.

"This effort in opening a new blessed land has been taxing for all of you," the central figure, Uncle He, a Core Formation realm elder, said warmly. "Throughout this process, our sect has had a decent haul."

"Most magical weapons, spiritual ores, and medicinal herbs must be handed over to the sect for handling, while a few cultivation resources will be your reward."

Hearing the refined middle-aged man's words, Lu Xuan felt more at ease. The Sky Sword Sect cultivators had already turned in what was required during their exploration of the blessed land; the rest was for them to manage.

The strange spirit soil Lu Xuan took, with the promise from the true disciple Huo Lin'er, belonged entirely to him. "Once the respective departments within the sect have properly managed everything, rewards will be discussed and given to all of you according to your contributions."

"Now, you may return to your caves and rest for a few days."

Hearing the Core Formation elder's words, the many inner sect disciples present breathed a sigh of relief, their exhausted demeanors evident.

Apart from Lu Xuan and a few others, most of the Sky Sword Sect cultivators had been on the front lines, constantly facing attacks from demon beasts, malevolent spirits, and mutated spirit plants. Their minds had been stretched to the limit, not daring to relax. Now, the long-accumulated negative emotions could finally be released.

"Junior Brother Lu, according to Uncle He, you, staying back to handle the spirit plants, might receive a considerable reward," Huo Lin'er approached Lu Xuan with a smile, his youthful face bearing an air of maturity.

"I've only done some inconsequential logistical work, not comparable to the life-and-death struggles faced by the senior brothers and sisters on the front lines," Lu Xuan modestly replied.

"Don't say that, Junior Brother Lu, or you'll make me blush," Huo Lin'er responded with a touch of warmth in his tone. "Indeed, we've slain many demon beasts and captured a lot of mutated spirit plants, but in terms of contributions within the blessed land, I'm afraid even we true disciples are not as significant as you."

This journey through the blessed land had been an eye-opener for Huo Lin'er regarding Lu Xuan's expertise in spirit plants, changing his initial indifferent attitude towards him as a spirit plant cultivator.

Inside the camp, Lu Xuan leveraged his knowledge of mutated spirit plants to trade for more valuable species for the sect. Along the way, he also helped Huo Lin'er and others identify the weaknesses of the Parasitic Yin Thread, allowing them to gain an advantage over cultivators from the other two sects.

In the deepest part of the cave, when they were trapped by a formation of thousand-armed spirit plants, it was Lu Xuan who proposed a brilliant solution, easily breaking the formation.

Additionally, his various research findings on mutated spirit plants at the sect and assistance during demon beast puppet attacks in the camp...

As a mere spirit plant cultivator, Lu Xuan shone brightly in the blessed land, making his presence impossible to ignore

.

This prompted Huo Lin'er, one of the true disciples, to take an interest in befriending Lu Xuan, showing goodwill towards him.

After chatting with Huo Lin'er and a few others, Lu Xuan excused himself, eager to return to his cave.

Opening the flow of light formation, a chubby bird enthusiastically greeted him, chirping nonstop, expressing its longing for Lu Xuan.

The Fire Flood Dragon, Rock Shell Turtle, Poisonous Heart-Eating Insect, and even the rarely seen Double-Headed Armadillo emerged from within the mountain, taking a distant look before retreating back.

Lu Xuan briefly comforted the various spirit beasts before entering his house.

This journey to the blessed land had been fruitful, and he anticipated the sect's rewards would not disappoint him, aside from acquiring numerous rare treasures.

The spirit soil of dark decay, strange spirit soil, suitable for cultivating corresponding underworld spirit plants.

In terms of spirit seeds, he acquired an Arrow Vine sapling, three Arrow Vine spirit seeds, eighteen Thousand Tendril Hand spirit seeds, and several third-grade mutated spirit seeds.

"The Thousand Tendril Hand spirit seeds naturally belong in the courtyard of Jianmen Town, but with more and more underworld spirit plants, the courtyard's space seems insufficient. I'll have to find an opportunity to switch to a better and safer spiritual field," Lu Xuan mused, setting aside the Thousand Tendril Hand spirit seeds.

"Such a vast cave, and it seems there's not much empty spiritual field left," he observed, looking at the Arrow Vine and other spirit seeds with a worried expression.

"Ah, just like in my previous life, I can't seem to break the habit of collecting seeds."

"Whenever I see a quality seed, I can't help but collect it, without considering if there's space to plant it," Lu Xuan sighed.

"And this dark red stone..."

He took out the dark red stone that caused an unusual reaction in the Demon Ghost Vine from his storage bag, examining it for a moment but still unable to find any secrets.

"When in doubt, cultivate it and see."

He found an empty spiritual field, applied the Earth Attraction Technique, creating a crack to incorporate the dark red stone.

Concentrating on it, he didn't experience the anticipated thoughts.

"Shouldn't be... Could it be the Demon Ghost Vine was mistaken?"

Lu Xuan retrieved the dark red stone, pondering about the unknown blood and flesh power in the blessed land and the seventh-grade demon beast corpse in the cave's center. A flash of inspiration struck him.

He took out a piece of fresh demon beast flesh from his storage bag and smeared it on the dark red stone's surface.

With anticipation, he focused again on the dark red stone.

A thought emerged in his mind.

【Flesh Spirit Deity, a malevolent spirit, in gestation, nourished by the blood and flesh of a seventh-grade demon beast, capable of birthing a powerful malevolent spirit.】

【It emits a bizarre blood and flesh aura, invisibly contaminating and attacking all living beings within a certain range.】

【Feasting on blood and flesh, once fully grown, it can master powerful blood and flesh secret techniques, controlling the blood and flesh of all beings within a certain range, with strength comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator.】
