You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 429: The Fledgling Fat Bird



Chapter 429: The Fledgling Fat Bird

"In such a paradisiacal realm, what more could one ask for?"

Lu Xuan, placing an ancient, mottled bronze formation disk into his storage bag, couldn't help but marvel at the rich and pure spiritual qi surrounding him.

Stimulated by the pristine spiritual qi of the secret realm, he felt the spiritual power within him becoming much more vibrant.

Having accessed this unique, incomplete secret realm of his own through the teleportation array in the Hall of Formations, at the cost of a substantial amount of spiritual stones, he arrived smoothly.

"Ying ying ying."

As he leisurely strolled through the realm, a faint humming caught his ear.

Turning, he saw a small figure darting out from behind a lush spirit tree, its body a light green with nearly transparent thin wings, emitting a naturally clear and spiritual aura.

It was a unique product of the secret realm, a Wood Sprite capable of naturally promoting the growth of spiritual plants.

The tiny, exquisite creature seemed very familiar with Lu Xuan, circling him affectionately.

From his fingertips, Lu Xuan released a thread of Source Qi, feeding the adorable sprite.

He then swiftly moved throughout the realm to inspect the various spiritual plants he had planted.

His primary concern was, naturally, the highest grade Phoenix Wood.

Arriving at the small mountain of flames, he saw two dark golden phoenix illusions soaring freely within the flames engulfing the area.

After basking in the flames and absorbing enough fiery spiritual power, their forms rapidly shrank, merging into a charred piece of wood marked with dark golden cracks.

Even without the nourishment of the Red Lotus Flames, the Phoenix Wood was growing well.

Next, Lu Xuan approached the fifth-grade Diamond Bodhi.

Although the Bodhi spiritual seed had not yet sprouted, the life force within the seed was much more vibrant than before, with the surface's Wrathful King Kong appearing more lifelike, as if it could reveal its true form at any moment.

He drew out the Thunderous Sword from his storage bag and gently waved it.

A thunderous boom, laden with Buddhist power, resonated, and the sword qi of the Thunderous Sword swiftly merged into the Diamond Bodhi spiritual seed.

Within the seed, a chant seemed to echo, and a weak golden glow like ripples appeared on the surface. The Wrathful King Kong came to life, brandishing Buddhist weapons such as the Demon-Subduing Pestle, as if capable of deterring all demons and spirits of the world.

"The Thunderous Sword indeed has an effect on the Diamond Bodhi, not in vain did I select it specifically for this task," Lu Xuan said, delighted by the sight.

With this fourth-grade Thunderous Sword obtained from the Sword Pool, he was less worried about the early growth needs of the Diamond Bodhi.

He activated dozens of Thunderous Sword Qi, nourishing the long-starved Diamond Bodhi.

Approaching the Emperor Jujube, a small sapling quietly sprouted, its delicate pale yellow form swaying gently in the breeze, filled with a rich, pure earthy spiritual aura.

Above the Fallen Thunder Wood, the lightning aura from the Thunder Stones was drawn to the withered wood, with faint bolts of lightning striking down intermittently, sinking into the parched wood.

Deep within the wood, a terrifyingly powerful lightning aura was growing, brewing stormy forces.

Other plants like the Sword-Nurturing Gourd, Flame Fruit, and Ice Gourd Fruit, although not receiving Lu Xuan's daily meticulous cultivation and basic spells like Spirit Rain Technique and Wood Growth Technique, were growing exceptionally well due to the influence of numerous second-hand flying swords and the dense, pure spiritual qi of the secret realm itself.

Reassured by their growth, Lu Xuan took out the Pure Lustrous Tea spiritual seed from his storage bag.

Sensing the spiritual qi within the secret realm, he finally settled near a spring eye to plant the tea in this area.

Focusing on the spiritual seed, Lu Xuan found it in excellent condition, with strands of clear spiritual qi slowly permeating the seed, surrounding it with a faint spiritual glow.

"As expected of a secret realm, even the Pure Lustrous Tea, which demands extremely high levels of spiritual qi, can grow smoothly here," Lu Xuan mused.

The spiritual qi within the secret realm was inherently dense and pure. Typically, aside from the Wood Sprites born from the wooden spiritual qi, there were no other cultivators or beasts present.

Thus, there were no influences of fleshly qi or worldly qi on the realm's spiritual qi, let alone malevolent, yin, or demonic qi.

He channeled his internal spiritual power, drawing the clear spiritual qi of the realm to gather beneath the spiritual seed, enveloping it thoroughly for optimum nourishment.

"Ying ying ying."

Unnoticed, five or six Wood Sprites fluttered near the Pure

Lustrous Tea spiritual seed, greedily inhaling the clear spiritual qi, their green faces showing a hint of surprise.

Lu Xuan wasn't worried these little sprites would affect the normal growth of the Pure Lustrous Tea. Containing rich and pure wooden spiritual qi and being extremely affable to spiritual plants, they could invisibly nourish the plants, beneficially so.

Next, he took out a dragon skeleton and cast it into the spring eye filled with Yinquan Spirit Dew.

"Usually, it takes a long time to taste a drop of third-grade spiritual liquid, but now, you'll be directly immersed in it, feasting to your heart's content."

The dragon skeleton sank to the depths of the spring eye, and slowly, three slender black grasses floated out, drifting and bobbing in the Yinquan Spirit Dew like slender black dragons.

After ensuring the growth conditions of all spiritual plants, Lu Xuan did not linger in the secret realm and returned to his cave dwelling.

For the next period, he mostly stayed within his dwelling, day after day nurturing spiritual plants and raising spiritual beasts.

Though monotonous and tedious, driven by the anticipation brought by the light orbs, Lu Xuan found joy in his work, never feeling weary.

"Farming brings me joy, I love farming."

This thought continuously filled his mind.

One day, while he was diligently nurturing his spiritual plants, a streak of azure light suddenly appeared on the mountainside.

It was the plump Wind Falcon returning from its play outside.

After advancing to a third-grade demonic beast, Lu Xuan allowed it to roam freely within the inner sect, provided it returned on time each day.

The Wind Falcon was no longer confined to a corner of the mountain; it could soar freely among the peaks, returning to enjoy spiritual fruits and demonic beast meals, living a leisurely and joyful life.

"Hmm? It seems a bit down today?"

From afar, Lu Xuan noticed the drooping, somewhat dispirited fat bird.

Usually lively and cheerful, it appeared somewhat dejected today.

He immediately approached the Wind Falcon, sending a thought its way.

"How was your play today?"

After advancing to a third-grade demonic beast, the Wind Falcon's intelligence had also significantly increased, chirping away.

"Today, I met two of my kind, and they were so beautiful."

"Not like me, so fat with such a big belly, not liked by other birds at all."

It conveyed such a thought to Lu Xuan.

"Hmm?"

"Not liked by other birds? What does that mean?"

"Could it be that my fat bird, which I've raised for many years, has finally grown up?"

A sense of alertness arose in Lu Xuan's mind, a strange thought flashing through. Instinctively, he felt like an old father seeing his daughter being rejected.
