You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 425: The Annihilation Five Elements Formation

Back when he was in Linyang Market, Lu Xuan had acquired a type of tea leaf spiritual plant, the second-grade Spirit Tea, whose mature leaves possessed the effect of clearing the mind and enhancing wisdom. The Purification Mantra that Lu Xuan had been using to this day was obtained from the luminous orb upon the tea's maturation.

However, compared to the fifth-grade Pure Lustrous Tea, it was a difference as vast as that between clouds and mud.

The Pure Lustrous Tea demanded extremely high conditions for growth in terms of spiritual qi and spiritual soil, where ordinary spiritual soil could even have an adverse effect on the tea's growth.

"Then, I'll place this seed directly in that fragmented secret realm. The spiritual qi there is pure and rich, untainted by the mundane breath, turbid qi, or foul qi, so gathering some pure spiritual essence shouldn't be a problem."

"As for the spiritual soil, the piece of Spirit Soil I'm currently using in this spiritual field has little effect on the Pure Lustrous Tea seed. It might as well be nurtured directly with the pure spiritual essence."

Having cultivated many spiritual plants, Lu Xuan found that while most spiritual plants need to be planted in spiritual soil, there are exceptions, especially for high-grade spiritual plants.

Among the plants he had cultivated, Phoenix Wood, Dragon Bone Grass, and Fallen Thunder Wood could grow normally without the need for spiritual soil.

"Next time I go to the secret realm, I'll plant it there, and also take the Dragon Bone Grass."

The consumption rate of the third-grade Profound Primordial Water and Gathering Spirit Essence he had obtained earlier wasn't slow. After cultivating three stalks of Dragon Bone Grass for such a long time, only a small portion was left.

Lu Xuan decided to bring the Dragon Bone Grass into the fragmented secret realm next time.

The spiritual qi in the secret realm was denser and purer compared to the inner sect, and with the existence of the Serene Spring Essence, transplanting the Dragon Bone Grass there would enable better growth.

Thinking this, he took out the Pure Lustrous Tea seed from the spiritual soil and placed it in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch to maintain its vitality.

Delighted by the unexpected acquisition of a fifth-grade spiritual seed, Lu Xuan quickened his pace as he inspected the spiritual field.

He meticulously observed the growth of each spiritual plant, making fine adjustments according to their needs, striving to satisfy them for healthy and smooth growth.

The Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, initially used for condensing seeds, had undergone significant changes. Lu Xuan's keen spiritual awareness detected that inside the deep black sword grass, three wisps of qi had gradually transformed into three developing spiritual seeds.

The seeds were vibrant, slowly moving within the sword grass plant, absorbing the plant's vitality and subtle sword qi.

Lu Xuan had already recorded every detail noticed during the condensation process, keeping them in mind as he observed the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass.

Additionally, another stalk of Wind and Thunder Sword Grass had four points of qi manifesting, sharp yet restrained, powerful yet fragile, presenting a strange contradiction that was yet harmoniously natural.

"This stalk of Wind andThunder Sword Grass has managed to condense four seeds, not bad at all."

Lu Xuan silently marveled.

High-grade spiritual plants were difficult to condense into seeds, and mass-producing them was even more challenging.

Thus, despite the strength of the Sky Sword Sect and countless sword cultivators exploring and attempting for many years, only over twenty methods for condensing third-grade sword grass seeds were known. For fifth-grade seeds, they could only sporadically be nurtured in the Sword Pool or other blessed lands.

Therefore, when Shen Ye learned that Lu Xuan could independently condense a new type of third-grade sword grass seed, his excitement and eagerness to offer Lu Xuan an early entry into the Sword Pool were understandable.

Approaching another stalk of Wind andThunder Sword Grass, Lu Xuan carefully manipulated the emerging deep black sword radiance from the sword grass.

He compressed the numerous hair-thin sword radiances together, merging them into the plant's interior.

Then, he drew on the plant's vitality, enveloping the condensed deep black sword radiance, nurturing it gently.

The next step, if qi began to condense, would mark the completion of the first step of seed condensation.

Since the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass seeds were all transformed from ordinary sword grass seeds placed in the Profound Sword Sheath, their growth rates varied.

The other Wind and Thunder Sword Grasses were still growing and not yet eligible for seed condensation.

Lu Xuan moved on to two stalks of fourth-grade sword grass.

The sound of swords clashing and thunder roaring filled the air.

His silver-white short sword transformed into a ribbon, dancing freely in the sky.

Lu Xuan formed sword seals, and sword radiances resembling predatory birds shot out from the blade at high speed

, leaving numerous afterimages in the air. Under his spiritual control, they all flew into the Thousand Owls Sword Grass.

The sword grass, resembling many bizarre swords with tops formed by double-winged owls made of swords, responded to the Qi of the Thousand Owls Sword Technique released by Lu Xuan. The owls flapped their wings together, with sword qi bursting forth as if they could materialize and fly off the stalk at any moment.

"The fourth-grade Thousand Owls Sword Grass is also entering the maturity stage."

Lu Xuan remarked, shifting his gaze to the Sword Peacock nearby.

Dozens of sword qi flew out from the Thunderous Sword, changing in the air to form the rudiments of a sword formation, flying into the Sword Peacock.

The plant, stimulated by the numerous sword qi, unfolded like a peacock's tail. Dozens to hundreds of flying swords, resembling peacock feathers, layered and dazzling, exuded a powerful killing intent.

His mastery of the Peacock Sword Formation was far inferior to the long-held Thousand Owls Sword Technique, but at least he could cultivate it normally.

With insufficient talent, diligence was the remedy. To ensure the normal growth of this fourth-grade Sword Peacock, Lu Xuan had put in a lot of effort.

After cultivating numerous sword grasses, he continued to inspect the spiritual field.

"Huh? This Five Elements Fruit matured earlier than I expected."

A hint of surprise flashed across Lu Xuan's expression.

The Five Elements Fruit plant before him was abundant in the five elemental spiritual forces. At its top, a five-colored spiritual fruit was particularly eye-catching.

The fruit emitted a faint fragrance, stirring the spiritual qi within one's body. The surface's five elemental forces circulated, cleverly blending on the fruit yet remaining distinct.

Lu Xuan activated his spiritual power, revealing the five elemental forces in his palm, carefully plucking the Five Elements Fruit.

"Five Elements Fruit, a fourth-grade spiritual fruit, cultivated with the power of the five elements, is the main ingredient for concocting Five Elements Pills."

"A fruit of good quality. There should be no problem in delivering it to the Pill Hall."

Lu Xuan murmured. The Five Elements Fruit was commissioned by the Pill Hall for him to cultivate, along with the second batch of Hidden Essence Grass already reaching maturity, with the fourth-grade Five Elements Fruit only maturing now. As he mused, his gaze was drawn to a white luminous orb at the top of the plant.

Touching it lightly with his hand, the orb exploded into countless light spots, faintly fluctuating in the five elemental forces, all rushing into Lu Xuan's body.

"Harvested a fourth-grade Five Elements Fruit, obtaining a fifth-grade formation, the Annihilation Five Elements Formation."

Thoughts flashed by, and five small flags along with a formation plate appeared in Lu Xuan's hands.

The flags bore the golden, wooden, water, fire, and earth elemental forces. A gentle wave sent the corresponding elemental forces surging on the flags, causing the runes on the formation plate to light up, flickering with spiritual light.

Lu Xuan's mind focused on the formation plate and flags, instantly understanding the detailed information about the formation.

"Annihilation Five Elements Formation, a fifth-grade formation, crafted with the five elemental flags, combines killing and illusion formations. It can conjure various five elemental spiritual beasts, launching successive assaults on cultivators or demonic beasts entering the formation, capable of severely injuring or even killing cultivators up to the early stages of Core Formation."
