I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Lu Xuan focused his mind, instantly gaining detailed information about the crimson pouch.

[Little Dijiang Pouch, an eighth-grade treasure, crafted from a piece of hide from a Little Dijiang demon beast, rumored to possess the bloodline of an ancient mythical beast. After refining the treasure, it can greatly enhance spatial abilities, granting a certain degree of control over space and the ability to create spatial turbulence.]

"Little Dijiang Pouch, could it be a descendant of the legendary Dijiang?"

Lu Xuan pondered.

"An eighth-grade spatial treasure, capable of manipulating space to a certain extent, even creating spatial turbulence, is extremely rare."

He sighed inwardly.

The three Spatial Wood saplings he had obtained from Senior Artifact Spirit had now fully matured. These three spatial spirit trees alone had earned Lu Xuan a great deal, not to mention the three light orb rewards.

He successively opened an eighth-grade Spatial Book, a fragment of the high-level divine power 'Sleeve Universe', and the newly acquired eighth-grade Little Dijiang Pouch from the Spatial Wood light orbs.

Each treasure was an extremely rare spatial type. With such generous rewards, in Lu Xuan's mind, the value of the Spatial Wood rivaled that of the Sword Grass.

"Back in the Fragmented Grotto-Heaven, I had the good fortune to get acquainted with several Spatial Palace cultivators. If there's a suitable opportunity, I must reconnect with them."

A smile appeared on Lu Xuan's face.

Even a seventh-grade Spatial Wood could bring such rare and precious treasure rewards. If he could fleece one or two eighth-grade spirit plants from the Spatial Palace…

Lu Xuan indulged in some wishful thinking. After slightly refining the Little Dijiang Pouch, he stored it and the Spatial Wood together within the Spatial Book.

The Spatial Wood was only seventh-grade. Even if it could be refined into rare spatial treasures, it was not on the same level as the Spatial Book and Little Dijiang Pouch he possessed. He planned to auction it off or exchange it for high-level spirit seeds.

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed. On this day, as he was nurturing spirit plants, a white ape hurried to his side with a communication talisman.

"Master, Wood Heng, the branch manager of Sword Star City, requests your presence, saying it's related to Senior Artifact Spirit."

"Alright."

Lu Xuan nodded lightly. After carefully nurturing the remaining Sword Grass, he went to the Sea Pavilion Merchant Association branch in Sword Star City.

"Senior Lu, please come to the top floor."

Wood Heng lowered his head and led Lu Xuan to the top floor.

"Senior, long time no see."

As soon as he pushed open the door, Lu Xuan saw Senior Artifact Spirit's comical pagoda-shaped figure.

"Little Lu, did you miss me?"

The Artifact Spirit's little man's pointed head split open as it spread out its slender wooden beam arms, making a hugging gesture.

"Of course, I missed you, Senior."

Lu Xuan said cheerfully.

Seeing the pagoda Artifact Spirit, who still possessed a naive heart, always made him feel genuinely happy.

"Hehe, it's not in vain that I missed you so much."

The Artifact Spirit's little man smiled and scratched the back of his head with its wooden beam arm.

"Why didn't Senior come to the Sword Sect to find me today?"

Lu Xuan asked curiously.

"That Sword Child from your Sword Sect is too annoying. Every time I went to find you, he would secretly monitor me, as if he was afraid I would steal treasures."

The pagoda Artifact Spirit said indignantly.

"That's Senior Brother Sword Child's duty. Please forgive him, Senior."

"Alright, alright, the main body is here today to give you a surprise ~"

The pagoda Artifact Spirit's tone rose, speaking lightly.

Immediately, a drop of divine essence blood appeared in front of Lu Xuan.

The essence blood was pink, and within it seemed to be a delicate and petite nine-tailed fox phantom. The nine-tailed fox's every smile and frown gave people an ultimate sense of charm, making them unable to extricate themselves from it.

"Is this the eighth drop of True Spirit Essence Blood?"

Lu Xuan guessed.

"That's right, this is Heavenly Fox Essence Blood, from a nine-tailed fox in the legendary Green Hill Mountain. It can be used as one of the nine drops of True Spirit Essence Blood for the Nine True Spirit Leaves."

"How is it, am I amazing?"

The pagoda Artifact Spirit crossed its two wooden beam arms at its waist, saying with a smug look.

"Senior is indeed amazing! You've collected another new True Spirit Essence Blood in such a short time."

Lu Xuan praised sincerely from the bottom of his heart.

Each of the nine True Spirit Essence Bloods was a rare and high-level treasure, and the difficulty of collecting them increased exponentially as one progressed.

It was not easy for Senior Artifact Spirit to find the eighth one in such a short period of time.

"In this way, there are True Dragon, Heavenly Phoenix, Black Tortoise, Azure Luan, Kunpeng, Qilin, Five-Colored Peacock, and now Heavenly Fox, eight drops of True Spirit Essence Blood. We are one step closer to nurturing the ninth-grade Nine True Spirit Fruit."

Lu Xuan rejoiced in his heart.

Currently, among the several ninth-grade spirit plants, the most promising to mature was the Nine True Spirit Leaves, which had the longest cultivation time and the most abundant conditions.

"Aiya, it's luck!"

The pagoda Artifact Spirit looked embarrassed.

If it were on any other old monster, it would be awkward, but on the Artifact Spirit's little man, it was extremely harmonious and natural.

"You just need to focus on nurturing that Nine True Spirit Leaves. Leave the rest to me!"

The Artifact Spirit's little man patted its chest vigorously.

"Alright, this junior will naturally do my best and strive to nurture the Nine True Spirit Fruit for Senior as soon as possible."

Lu Xuan solemnly promised, then changed the subject:

"If Senior could find one or two eighth-grade ripening spirit items, then the maturity cycle of the Nine True Spirit Leaves would probably be shortened by a lot."

"Oh? Your wings have hardened, kid?!"

"You actually dare to make demands of me, Lord Artifact Spirit!"

The Artifact Spirit's little man tilted its head back, feigning anger.

"This junior would never dare."

"I'm just saying it to Senior out of the thought of nurturing it as soon as possible."

Lu Xuan explained with a smile.

"Alright, I've remembered what you said!"

"However, eighth-grade ripening spirit items are rare even if you search the entire cultivation world. I can only do my best!"

The Artifact Spirit's little man's chest rose and fell, and rays of treasure light shot out from time to time.

"By the way, Senior, this junior would also like to ask if you still have any Spatial Wood spirit seeds or saplings in your hand?"

Lu Xuan asked with a solemn expression.

"No more. Those three spirit seeds were obtained because the Spatial Palace owed me a great favor. They've all been given to you, kid."

The Artifact Spirit's little man said slowly.

"What a pity."

Lu Xuan shook his head.

"Oh right, I heard from the Wood family kid that you wanted me to pay attention to that Taiyi Alliance?"

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Wen Wuchen of the Taiyi Alliance once came to the Sword Sect to visit me, wanting to establish a cooperative relationship with me, but I directly refused."

Lu Xuan told the truth.

"Well done, Little Lu!"

"I knew I didn't misjudge you."

The Artifact Spirit's little man grinned from ear to ear.

The Taiyi Alliance and the Sea Pavilion Merchant Association, the superiority and inferiority were clear at a glance. Not everyone was willing to continue choosing the Sea Pavilion Merchant Association.

"Senior has the grace to recognize my talent, so I must repay you well."

Lu Xuan said sincerely.

"Don't say such mushy things!"

The Artifact Spirit's little man said so, but its expression was extremely pleased.

It took a while to calm down.

"Those insidious guys from the Taiyi Alliance actually wanted to poach from me. If I don't give them a lesson, they'll think I'm easy to bully!!"

It said fiercely.

"Alright, I have something to do, so I'll be leaving first."

A spatial vortex gradually appeared around the pagoda Artifact Spirit.

"Senior, take care and be safe."

Lu Xuan didn't forget to remind it.
