You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 74

As night descended and the stars hung low, Lu Xuan, with a slight intoxication, treaded the cobblestone path beneath the moonlight.

The Cloud-Stepping Lynx perched on his shoulder, slightly tensed, scanning the surroundings ceaselessly, its emerald eyes stark against the night.

Lu Xuan remained alert, the Red Thread Needle and myriad talismans tucked in his sleeves, ready to ignite instantly at any sign of trouble.

As disciples entered the marketplace, not only did malevolent forces vanish without a trace, but the overall atmosphere of the market also improved, ensuring a safe journey back home.

Arriving at the backyard's spiritual field, Lu Xuan extravagantly scooped some spiritual spring water, splashing it on his face, instantly sobering up a bit.

He approached the area where the diseased spiritual plants were cultivated before, extracting the twenty-three afflicted ones arranged by Steward He.

Once touched twice familiar, thick mist rapidly spread, segregating this area from the normal spiritual plants.

Lu Xuan planted the twenty-three diseased spiritual plants, focusing his consciousness on them. Those too far gone or with high recovery potential were abandoned and immediately destroyed.

After a quick tally, fourteen out of the twenty-three diseased plants could be salvagedtwelve first-grade and two second-grade spiritual plants.

Adding these to the two second-grade ones nurtured in the yard, it summed up to four second-grade plants.

After two previous purchases, Lu Xuan had earned around a hundred spirit stones. With the twelve first-grade and four second-grade plants in the yard, it promised several hundred more spirit stonesan impressive haul indeed.

After handling the diseased plants, Lu Xuan surveyed the spiritual field, finding all plants in excellent condition, thriving exceptionally well.

There were no signs of contamination by murky spiritual energy or invasion by aberrant insects.

Oddly, this made Lu Xuan somewhat nostalgic about the previous abnormal spiritual plants.

"Earning quick wealth makes it difficult to return to the days of stable spirit stone income."

Lu Xuan chuckled at himself, suddenly understanding the actions of the female cultivators in the market's enticing stalls.

His efforts to heal the diseased plants for profit felt opportunistic, yet he nearly got caught up in it, almost unable to pull away.

Contrastingly, the female cultivators in the stalls earned spirit stones effortlessly with just a lie-down, especially if they practiced paired cultivation techniques, further boosting their cultivation.

Lu Xuan took a deep breath, adjusting his mindset.

"For me now, seizing such an opportunity to earn spirit stones is already good enough. There's nothing much to regret if I miss it."

"Calmly cultivating and nurturing spiritual plants to acquire the white light masses is the right path."

In the Blood Jade Ginseng region, after Lu Xuan had been away for a while, they had gathered in groups of three or four. Thankfully, they were still in the initial stage, not engaging deeply, thus not affecting the Blood Jade Ginseng's future quality.

Lu Xuan employed the Earth Attraction Technique, patiently separating them one by one.

Additionally, he discovered four mature Blood Jade Ginseng plants, two of good quality, one of superior quality, and a perfect-quality one.

After harvesting, four white light masses appeared in their original spots, faintly shimmering, complementing the starlight.

Lu Xuan collected them one by one.

Countless specks of light poured into Lu Xuan's body, and immediately, thoughts flooded his mind.

"Harvested one Blood Jade Ginseng, obtained a second-grade pill, Blood Essence Pill."

Two bright red pills appeared in Lu Xuan's palm, emanating a strong blood aura.

"With these and the ones previously obtained, I now have four Blood Essence Pills. I wonder what effect one pill will have after using the Blood Ignition Arrow technique."

He stored the two Blood Essence Pills in a jade box and placed it inside his storage pouch.

"Harvested one Blood Jade Ginseng, obtained the second-grade technique, Blood Ignition Arrow."

The white light mass left by the superior-quality Blood Jade Ginseng revealed the Blood Ignition Arrow technique.

Instantly, Lu Xuan's mind was flooded with numerous details about the technique.

Principles of execution, methods of nurturing blood essence, timing of application...

As if practicing it countless times in an instant, Lu Xuan gained a deeper understanding of the Blood Ignition Arrow technique.

"Experience packs are truly beneficial. To fully master this technique through practice alone might take endless attemptsmaybe a hundred blood-spraying sessions before achieving the 'blood-spitting effect.'"

"During the process, constantly depleting one's blood essence, wasting a lot of time, and continuously using Blood Essence Pills or other substances to replenish qi and blood."

"All these can be perfectly resolved with just one experience pack."

Lu Xuan grinned with satisfaction, eager for more experience packs to exponentially advance his mastery of techniques.

The last white light mass belonged to the perfect-quality Blood Jade Ginseng.

Previously, whether it was the Spirit Firefly Grass or the Crimson Cloud Pine, perfect-quality spiritual plants yielded rich rewards. This raised Lu Xuan's expectations for this final white light mass.

Gently picking up the light mass, it shattered into a myriad of lights, flowing into his body.

"Harvested one Blood Jade Ginseng, obtained a third-grade treasure, the Life-Sustaining Bag."

A bag appeared in his palm.

The bag, palm-sized, had a dark greenish-black hue with intricate and mysterious patterns, almost concealed, and a fine dark gold rope looped around its mouth, used to contract and expand the bag.

A thought flashed in Lu Xuan's mind, instantly providing him with detailed information about the dark greenish-black bag in his hand.

"The Life-Sustaining Bag, a third-grade auxiliary treasure that can house spiritual beasts or plants, sustaining their vitality for extended periods."

"The lower the grade of the spiritual beast or plant, the slower the vitality dissipates. If the grade exceeds the third grade, it can only moderately decrease the speed of vitality loss."

"In simple terms, it's a storage bag specifically for spiritual beasts or plants."

Lu Xuan shook the dark greenish-black bag in his hand, his spiritual awareness delving inside.

The bag's space was not small, roughly half a meter in diameter, chaotic inside, made up of an unknown substance.

It wasn't suitable for storing live spiritual beasts or plants. Usually, it was used to directly store harvested or hunted ones; the spiritual power in matured plants or beasts would only last for a certain duration.

Now, the dark greenish-black bag before him resolved his past dilemma.

With this Life-Sustaining Bag, he could place the Cloud-Stepping Lynx, Grass Puppet, and numerous spiritual plants inside without worrying about their vitality dissipating.

Earlier, when malevolent forces erupted in the Lin Yangfang market, Lu Xuan had considered leaving for elsewhere.

However, it fizzled out without any resolution.

Though there were various factors involved, such as support from the Wang family and other major powers in the market, a lack of suitable new targets, insufficient personal strength for risky ventures, among others.

The primary reason was his inability to take away the spiritual plants from the spiritual field without any damage.

The spiritual field housed several second and third-grade spiritual plants, each of immense value. Furthermore, every second or third-grade spiritual plant bore a white light mass, sign

ifying rich rewards.

If he left the market with only a storage pouch, he couldn't sustain the vitality for an extended period.

Now, with the Life-Sustaining Bag, this problem was easily resolved.
