I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates Chapter 624: 622: Who Knows the Joy of the Spirit Plant?

Chapter 624: Chapter 622: Who Knows the Joy of the Spirit Plant?

After the auction of treasures was concluded, paynt and delivery could take place on the spot, or the spirit stones could be paid after the end of the auction, and the treasures could be collected.

To avoid long nights and many dreams, Lu Xuan chose to take possession of the tree sapling as soon as possible.

He glanced at the auction list that flashed beneath the teorite, and seeing that there were no Spiritual Seeds coming up for a while, he directed the teorite to streak rapidly towards the back of the light screen.

Vaguely, he heard many “Cultivators” in the background discussing animatedly, seemingly baffled by Lu Xuan’s recent actions.

“Who knows where that ‘Cultivator’ ca from, actually spending twenty-eight thousand spirit stones to buy a sapling?!”

The voice was half confused, half mocking.

“Perhaps it’s the descendant of a Sect or a noble family? They treat spirit stones as if they’re nothing.”

“It hurts to see this, twenty-eight thousand low-grade spirit stones could almost buy a superior fifth-grade talisman or elixir.”

“Buying a tree sapling, what’s the deal? A Foundation Establishnt ‘Cultivator’ buying a Five-Quality Spirit Plant, they might not even succeed in cultivating it, and in the end, it could all be for naught like drawing water with a bamboo basket.”

The voices were faint, and if Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense were not far superior to that of a Foundation Establishnt Perfect ‘cultivator’, he likely would not have noticed them.

Hearing these criticisms, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he remained unconcerned in his heart.

“Children are not , how can they know the joy of cultivating spiritual plants?”

To others, using so many spirit stones to bid for a sapling seed too wasteful, but for Lu Xuan, it was different.

A Five-Quality Spirit Plant, once planted, would reveal the thod of cultivation, so he need not worry about the possibility of failing to cultivate it.

Once mature, he could even reap a reward of a light cluster, at least fifth rank, and very likely sixth grade. Even if it was only a fifth-rank treasure, its value would far surpass that of the spirit plant itself.

Thus, the mont he secured that Fifth Grade Evil Strange Sapling, he was already reaping a huge profit.

As these thoughts flickered through his mind, he arrived behind the light screen, where there were many ‘Cultivators’ from the Sea Tower Chamber of Comrce. A casual glance from Lu Xuan revealed no fewer than five Golden Core Real People, and there was also one person who emitted not a trace of aura, yet his keen Spiritual Sense detected that this person was extrely terrifying, most likely a guarding Primordial Infant True Monarch.

Without a sideways glance, he approached a Jindan ‘Cultivator’ in charge of Spiritual dicine.

“Senior, I am the ‘Cultivator’ who just bid for that Evil Granny Tree Monster Tree Sapling. Could you please assist by retrieving the sapling?”

“Alright!”

After the auction, Lu Xuan’s presence on the teorite had already been registered by the ‘Cultivators’ present, and after verifying his identity, he imdiately brought out the small, yet distinctly ancient-looking black tree sapling.

Lu Xuan briefly inspected it and took out two hundred and eighty middle-grade spirit stones, using his Spiritual Power to float them over to the Jindan ‘Cultivator’.

“Please check these, senior.”

The Jindan Real Person took a cursory glance, nodded to indicate the count was correct.

Seeing this, Lu Xuan took the Evil Granny Tree Monster Tree Sapling and left the light screen.

“This sapling looks too ancient, doesn’t it? Is it really a sapling?”

As he disabled the simple Prohibitions and Restrictions on the sapling, looking at its bark that resembled an old woman’s skin, he couldn’t help but remark.

It seed as if the sapling understood the aning in his words, as a pair of deep crevices ford on the top of the trunk, revealing two slender, erald green, and profound eyes, glaring at Lu Xuan with a fierce and malevolent look.

“Give that fierce look.”

Hearing this, the sapling’s short black branches flailed wildly, stirring the air around Lu Xuan into chaos.

Seeing it seeming to be angry, Lu Xuan quickly soothed it, saying:

“It’s all right, look at it from a different angle. We might seem a bit old, but we can withstand the erosion of ti!”

“Other spiritual plants might turn to dust after a hundred years, but you, even after a thousand or ten thousand years, you might still look the sa as you do now.”

The seedling’s erald pupils shifted as it seed to accept this reasoning, and then it let the matter rest.

Lu Xuan’s fingertips released a wisp of Qingmu Origin Energy, which seeped into the trunk of the sapling.

Nourished by the Qingmu Origin Energy, the seedling perked up considerably. It waved its branches towards Lu Xuan in a feigned gesture, and its facial features gradually receded.

Lu Xuan focused his mind on its trunk, sensing that it was just a short hibernation, and then he confidently stowed it away in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

Lu Xuan quietly returned to the spiritual dicine area to continue participating in the auction.

The spiritual dicines that appeared later were varied and marvelous. Even Lu Xuan, who was well-versed in the Spirit Plant Scripture, had never heard of many of them, which was quite an eye-opener for him.

However, he shrewdly noticed that most of these spiritual dicines were naturally occurring, collected by cultivators from various Secret Lands. Only a small part had been cultivated by Spirit Plant Masters.

He realized that among the nurous arts of cultivation, cultivating spiritual plants was much less popular compared to refining instrunts, alchemy, and talisman-making. Most cultivators did so casually while focusing on other practices. Dedicated Spirit Plant Masters like Lu Xuan were indeed rare.

Therefore, there weren’t many cultivators who could independently cultivate a large number of high-rank spiritual plants.

Add to that, there are virtually no thods for condensing seeds for fifth rank and above spiritual species, so the spiritual seeds that appeared at the auction were mostly fourth grade.

He waited a while, but seeing no desirable spiritual seeds, he moved the teorite to the Magic Instrunt Zone.

There were more than ten tis as many cultivators gathered here compared to the spiritual dicine area, which showed the popularity of magic artifacts.

Lu Xuan stayed for a while, taking an interest in a fourth grade evil strange magic artifact, which sealed a large number of Yin Souls and was perfect for cultivating several five-quality spirit plants in the Underworld Spirit Field that required Yin Soul Resentnt.

The bidding for the magic artifact soared. After calling out a few bids, he chose to give up.

To him, magic artifacts weren’t as crucial as spiritual seeds. If it was a desired spiritual seed, he would strive to win it if it was within his abilities, but for magic artifacts, if the price went too high, he would simply let them go.

In the end, the Yin Soul magic artifact was bought by a Foundation Establishnt Evil Cultivator at a high price.

Lu Xuan didn’t dwell on it, continuing his search for the treasures he wanted.

“Twenty-five thousand once, twenty-five thousand twice, twenty-five thousand thrice!”

“Sold!”

“Congratulations to this fellow Daoist for acquiring the skeleton of this fifth grade Giant Spirit Elephant demon beast.”

Lu Xuan looked at the mountainous skeleton before him with a smile on his face.

The demon core, essence blood, and the most valuable tusks from this fifth grade demon beast skeleton had all been removed, leaving only a shockingly large skeleton.

That’s why he was able to purchase it at a price lower than that of a fifth-grade spiritual species.

“The bigger, the better, as the larger it is, the longer I can use it to cultivate the Skeleton Demon Lookout.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself that with this fifth-grade demon beast skeleton, he wouldn’t have to worry about the subsequent growth of the Skeleton Demon Lookout.

Before long, the sub-auction venue’s sale of various treasures was coming to an end. Lu Xuan had only acquired a fifth-grade Evil Granny Tree Monster sapling and a fifth-grade demon beast skeleton. The results were not bad, but he wasn’t fully satisfied.

“Next is the main auction event. The Sea Tower Chamber of Comrce has been collecting for years and has attracted so many Jindan and even Nascent Soul cultivators. If they don’t bring out so good treasures, it would only damage their reputation.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself. According to what the cultivator had said at the beginning, the treasures appearing in the main venue ranged up to the seventh grade, with a large number of sixth grade ones. He felt even more anticipation.
