I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 391: Chapter 389: It’s Good to Be Alive_l

“The assets of a Spirit Plant Master are so substantial?”

This was the collective thought crossing the minds of Feng Yu and his group.

For them, a fourth-grade sword symbol is an extremely rare treasure, yet Lu Xuan could take out one after another. This greatly upended their understanding of Spirit Plant Masters.

However, with the four flood dragon puppets blocking their way, this thought was fleeting, as they quickly refocused on the flood dragon puppets.

The speed of the flood dragon puppets was getting faster and faster, they loftily watched over Lu Xuan and his group, generating an overwhelming pressure.

Just as they were about to mercilessly strike at Lu Xuan’s group, suddenly, a patch of red cloud arose on the far horizon, a red fireball with a diameter of more than thirty feet, like a meteor, came crashing towards the four flood dragon puppets.

Just as it was about to make contact with the flood dragon puppets, the enormous fireball suddenly dispersed, followed by a red flame burning on the flood dragon’s surface.

This flame was like a clinging to the bone disease, despite the best efforts of the flood dragon puppets, they could not extinguish it. A few breaths later, the only thing left of the four flood dragon puppets was a charred skeleton.

A gentle breeze passed by, reducing the charred skeletons into countless pieces of ash, which then drifted away.

From tens of thousands of flames merged together, a handsome child wearing a giant red robe slowly appeared.

It was none other than Huo Lin’er, one of the most authentic students of the Sky Sword Sect, born with a Fire Spirit Body.

“Elder Brother Huo!”*2

Lu Xuan and Feng Yu were surprised to see Huo Lin’er appearing. Regaining their composure, they stepped forward to greet him with respect.

Long Miaomiao from Ten Thousand Beast Gate and another person also paid their respects.

All four were profoundly stirred by Huo Lin’er’s spectacular entrance.

The flood dragon puppets are fourth-grade demon beasts, and being controlled by Tusilin makes them fearlessly fierce. It would have taken some time for Lu Xuan’s group to defeat them without using various treasures from the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.

However, with just a glance, Huo Lin’er effortlessly burned the four flood dragon puppets to black ash. This astounding strength gave Lu Xuan and the group a clearer understanding of the true teachings of the great sect.

“Junior Brother Lu, I apologize for being late.”

“I caused you to suffer a fright. Did it hurt anywhere? If there’s any bump or bruise, I have bountiful healing pills.”

Huo Lin’er landed, looking at Lu Xuan with a concerned expression.

“Thank you, Elder Brother Huo, for your concern, but I was fortunate enough to escape unharmed during the demon beast puppet attack on the camp.”

Lu Xuan quickly responded, inadvertently omitting his adventure with the spiritual seeds.

“Elder Brother Huo.”

From the side, Feng Yu, who had been harassed by the demon beast puppets for a long time and looked quite abject, came forward.

“Ah, Junior Brother Feng, you’re still alive.”

These words left Feng Yu speechless.

How different were two juniors treated by the same elder? One was showered with care and attention out of concern for injuries, and the other was just glad to be alive.

“When we were opening the Blessed Land, our fellows outside found that a distress signal had been triggered at the camp.”

“Master Gu, upon learning of this situation, dispatched me and Senior Sister Sword Flawless to assist you.”

“On arrival at the camp and finding that you all had dispersed, we divided into two groups, following the traces you left to find you.”

Said Huo Lin’er at a leisurely pace.

“Elder Brother Huo, are we going back to the camp later?”

Feng Yu asked aloud. On the side, Long Miaomiao and the other two paid close attention as well.

“No, our camp was destroyed by those demon beast puppets, and it would take considerable time and energy to rebuild and set up another formation. It would be too much trouble to return.”

“The development of the Blessed Land has reached its latter stages, and the time we spend here will be considerably shorter. Junior Brother Lu, you can move with the frontline disciples.”

“As for the two friends from the Ten Thousand Beast Gate, it is safer for you to come with me and head into the depths of the Blessed Land to return to your respective sects.”

Lu Xuan and the others nodded unanimously, without any objections.

The big red robe worn by Fire Scale Child fluttered loudly in the wind. At the feet of Lu Xuan and the others, a cloud of fire brilliantly bloomed and quickly lifted them into the sky.

A moment later, the fiery cloud descended at the entrance of a large cave.

The cave mouth reached as high as thirty feet, and the interior’s stone walls were a dark red color. From within came a faint, strange smell that caused a mild sense of discomfort.

“The center of the Blessed Land is in a cave underground and is filled with many mutated spirit plants and demon envoys. However, most of them have already been cleared by us.”

Fire Scale Child gave a greeting to their sect members guarding the cave entrance and spoke to Long Miaomiao and her partner.

“The entrance to the underground cave for the Ten Thousand Beast Gate is ten miles in the southeast direction. The two of you can go and look for your fellow cultivators.”

Long Miaomiao and her partner expressed their gratitude to Fire Scale Child. Before leaving, they came in front of Lu Xuan and gave him a deep bow.

“Brother Lu, thanks to your help and intervention, we barely managed to escape from the demon beast puppets. Once we leave the Blessed Land, you are more than welcome to visit our Ten Thousand Beast Gate.”

“I won’t say much about our sect but we have absolute confidence when it comes to raising Spirit Beasts and would be glad to exchange notes.”

“Of course, I will definitely visit Friend Dragon when I have the chance.”

Lu Xuan responded modestly.

After they left, he and Feng Yu followed closely behind Fire Scale Child, swiftly moving through the intricate and constantly changing dark red passages.

“The three sects joined forces to open up the Blessed Land, with Core Formation Real People leading the efforts in cracking various restrictions and dealing with the most powerful mutated spirit plants and demon envoys.”

” Inner Sect Disciples were mainly responsible for eliminating unstable factors within the Blessed Land and collecting various treasures such as spirit plants and spirit ores.”

Fire Scale Child explained to both of them, primarily for Lu Xuan’s understanding.

“Elder Brother Huo, if I may ask, what was the casualty rate for the three sects during this process of opening the Blessed Land?”

“The loss of life was minimal.”

“With the Core Formation Real People at the forefront, very few disciples were injured throughout the process, and only a sparse few lost their lives due to unforeseen accidents.”

“However, compared to the opportunities obtained in the Blessed Land, these losses are negligible. It is far safer than exploring in the Secret Land.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan nodded, and his mind became even more cautious.

“Speaking of which, we need to thank you, Junior Brother Lu.”

Fire Scale Child paused for a moment, turned, and spoke.

“Elder Brother, how do you mean?”

“Last time, I asked you to study that parasitic spirit plant. Following the method you sent, we were able to easily deal with those so-called mutated camp tassels.”

“With this opportunity, our sect’s cultivators were able to obtain many treasures within the cave.”

A satisfied expression appeared on his face.

The mutated camp tassel was extremely tricky and unpredictable during the parasitic process. In the dark red underground cave, it was everywhere, obstructing the exploration process.

After receiving the information from Lu Xuan, Fire Scale Child and the others used Lu Xuan’s sonic attack method, which produced marvelous results, causing the camp tassels to be suddenly stripped of their ability to fight.

Following the effortless handling of this problem, the Sky Sword Sect gained an advantage in the collaborative effort to open the Blessed Land.

With one step ahead, they remained ahead consistently, obtaining a wealth of cultivation resources in the process.
