I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 440: Chapter 438: Planting the Prime, Collecting the Elixir Recipe!_1

Lu Xuan saw the sly appearance of the Demonic Vine and couldn’t help but kick it away in annoyance.

“Get out of here,” he said.

His Spirit Pet had found the lustful sound from the pink miasma of the Enchanted Immortal Peach. Even for him, who had a thick skin, it caused a surge of embarrassment.

This Demonic Vine was accustomed to staying near the Enchanted Immortal Peach, listening to melodies in the peach forest every day. It came over when it heard the familiar sound and happened to catch this scene with Lu Xuan.

With a thought from Lu Xuan, the transparent jewel slowly seeped out of his throat and was placed inside the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

This fifth-rank treasure was incomplete and could potentially be detected by his peers or a Golden Core Real People. He decided to keep a low profile for the time being.

After lightly experimenting with the Mirage Sound Pearl, Lu Xuan took out the piece of Illusion Sound Bamboo.

Once his Spiritual Power was stimulated, the numerous cracks on the roots of the Illusion Sound Bamboo opened simultaneously and all sorts of chaotic strange sounds flooded into his ears.

The bamboo had been planted near the Enchanted Immortal Peach and was infused with its seductive sound every day during its growth stage. It naturally acquired this melody and could emit captivating sounds with just a little control, luring one into oblivion unknowingly.

In addition, ever since Lu Xuan acquired the Thunder Sound Sword from the Sword Pool, he had often stimulated and nourished the Spirit Plants with Sword Qi Thunder Sound.

This was perfectly imitated by the Illusion Sound Bamboo too. The bamboo could switch between two distinct sounds: one was robust and dominating, demonstrating righteousness and seemed to eradicate all the Demon Envoys in the world; the other was a joyful seductive sound, aimed at dragging individuals into a sea of desires, corroding the mind.

“Now that I have the fifth-rank Mirage Sound Pearl, which is of higher rank and more powerful, I no longer need to keep this Illusion Sound Bamboo. I can look for opportunities to sell it,” Lu Xuan thought.

“Even though it is not inherently evil, its growth has been influenced by the Enchanted Immortal Peach, which makes it look as such. It would be best to sell it outside the Sect or exchange it for other treasures,” he thought to himself.

“Furthermore, all the free Spiritual Medicine received from Dan Palace has been used up, and I have consumed many resources that I had accumulated previously. Thankfully, I refined quite a number of elixirs, which can be exchanged for Spirit Stones.”

He intended to go to Dan Palace and trade some of the increasing amount of elixirs he had for Spirit Stones or Sword Marks.

Since the success rate of refining Yuan Cultivating Pill and Spirit Gathering Pill is nearly one hundred percent, he planned to take only about thirty percent of the elixirs and keep the rest to avoid the Pill Masters in Dan Palace discovering his monstrous Alchemy level.

When he arrived at the Dan Palace, Guan Wan, a gentle woman, was waiting for him at the gate.

“Sister Guan, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting,” Lu Xuan approached her hastily.

“No problem. I just got here, too. After hearing that Junior Brother Lu would be coming to hand in some elixirs, I came to guide you through the process and save you some trouble,” Guan Wan said softly.

All the Spirit Plants given to Lu Xuan by Dan Palace for cultivation matured successfully, among which many were of “Good Quality”. Guan Wan therefore valued Lu Xuan highly and made a point to meet him as soon as she knew he was going to the Palace.

They came to a large hall filled with numerous Pill Masters. Deacons from Dan Palace were checking the number and quality of the elixirs. The fragrance of various elixirs filled Lu Xuan’s nostrils as he was led by Guan Wan to a beautiful female cultivator.

“Junior Sister Liang, I’ve brought a Junior Brother to hand in some elixirs to exchange for Spirit Stones,” Guan Wan greeted the cultivator and hinted at Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan promptly took out several white jade small bottles that had been prepared in advance.

The beautiful female cultivator gave Lu Xuan a friendly smile and took the white jade small bottles from him. She covered her palm with a thin layer of Spiritual Power, took out the elixirs, and carefully scrutinized their quality.

“Junior Brother Lu, at what level are the few types of elixirs you brought?” Guan Wan asked in surprise. She didn’t expect that Lu Xuan, who had only been learning alchemy for a short period, could produce so many elixirs.

“Since learning the Elixir Recipe, I have been practicing day and night, even neglecting my spirit plants cultivation.

I can now barely reach a proficient level. If I’m in good state, I could achieve almost a thirty percent success rate in alchemy.”

Lu Xuan replied.

“You already have a thirty percent success rate?” Guan Wan asked in surprise.

“I did not expect that Junior Brother Lu, in addition to your exceptional talent in spirit plant cultivation, would also be quite adept in alchemy.”

“In less than three months, you have mastered the methods of refining three kinds of first and second-grade elixirs, and even a thirty percent success rate. Even in the Dan Palace, this kind of talent is considered top-notch.”

While she was asking, the beautiful cultivator had already finished counting the number of elixirs.

“All of these elixirs are of ordinary quality. According to the pricing of the Dan Palace, the total is three thousand four hundred spirit stones. Please check it, Senior Brother.”

Lu Xuan and Guan Wan’s conversation wasn’t concealed. She heard every word clearly during the inspection. Knowing that Lu Xuan had quickly mastered the recipe for three low-grade elixirs, she couldn’t help but take another look.

Lu Xuan took the spirit stones, secretly marveling at the huge profits that came from elixirs.

Although most of the materials and medicinal herbs were freeloading from the Dan Palace, even if the value of the medicinal herbs was taken into account, these more than three thousand spirit stones could probably net him around one to two thousand.

This was under the premise that Lu Xuan showed about thirty percent of his alchemy skill. If all were taken into account, it would be even more terrifying.

“No, it should be said that the ones making a fortune are those alchemists with high alchemy skills. Ordinary alchemists probably can’t even break even.”

Lu Xuan was thus even more grateful for the presence of the light cluster.

Without the various Pill Formula Experience Packages in the light cluster, he would only be like the most ordinary alchemists in the Cultivation World, painstakingly accumulating spiritual medicine, in exchange for one furnace after another of spoiled elixirs.

“Foundation Establishment Pills and Spirit Gathering Pills are just first- and second-grade elixirs. If it’s a higher-grade, rarer Foundation Establishment Pill, that’s probably not much different from robbing spirit stones.”

Lu Xuan’s mouth involuntarily curled slightly. There was only one thought in his mind.

Plant Primordial Essence Herb, and gain Elixir Recipes from the light cluster!

Just as he was thinking about it, Guan Wan suddenly turned around, her tone soft.

“Junior Brother Lu, there are a few Alchemy Masters exchanging alchemy experiences in the Dan Palace right now. Although they probably won’t discuss their trump cards, some small tips and success or failure experiences are quite valuable.”

“Are you willing to go with me and share some alchemy experience?”

After seeing Lu Xuan’s revealed talent in alchemy, Guan Wan, who was already very enthusiastic about him, was even more favorably inclined. She was even willing to take Lu Xuan, who was still an ordinary alchemist, to the circle of core alchemists.

“Can I participate in the alchemy exchange meeting with my level of alchemy?”

Lu Xuan asked in surprise.

“With my guidance, there is naturally no problem. Besides, if the Pill Dao masters knew that you have cultivated so many high-quality spiritual medicines for the Dan Palace, they would not hesitate to please you.”

Guan Wan chuckled.

“Then I’ll have to trouble Sister Guan then. When I go over, I will only listen and try to learn the basics of Pill Dao.”

Lu Xuan agreed in stride when he heard this.

However, he had other thoughts in his mind.

The words of the core alchemists in the Dan Palace naturally carried weight. If they got to know him, acquiring the Primordial Essence Herb Spirit Seed would be much easier.

Moreover, every alchemist has strict requirements for spirit plants. Perhaps he could finagle some rare spiritual seeds from them, or even be privately commissioned to cultivate high-grade spiritual plants.
