I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

"When another batch of water fireflies matures, we will be able to steadily enter the middle stage of foundation building."

After Lu Xuan digested the increased cultivation of more than 20 years, he felt that his Dantian was filled with spiritual liquid, and he had an intuition that he was about to touch a new realm.

From the time he noticed that the cultivation rewards brought by the Firefly Grass were drastically reduced, and began to improve its varieties, to the time he obtained the second-grade Water Firefly Grass, Lu Xuan had received cultivation rewards for no less than forty years.

But because his bones are too ordinary, he is still a hair away from breaking through to the middle stage of foundation building.

With his talent, he is definitely among the bottom among the Tianjian Sect.

For those talented geniuses in the sect, it usually takes ten or twenty years to break through from the early stage of foundation building to the middle stage. Those with true inheritance level talents are more likely to be able to break through in less than ten years.

If Lu Xuan devoted himself to cultivation, he might not be able to achieve a breakthrough in fifty years.

Fortunately, the existence of the light group has greatly shortened the talent gap between them, and there is even a tendency to strike from behind.

It had only been three or four years since he started planting water fireweeds, and the new batch was already only a stone's throw away from the middle stage of foundation building.

"Farming makes people progress. I love farming."

Lu Xuan smiled broadly as he looked at the spiritual plants all over the mountains and plains.

He did not use the green wood source energy to ripen the remaining thirty or so water fireweeds, but allowed them to grow naturally, and then used them to condense spiritual seeds when they were mature.

"Thirty-five water fireflies should be able to obtain no less than 150 spiritual seeds, which is enough. If there are more, the spiritual power will not be able to support the needs of the spiritual plants."

Lu Xuan returned to the house with a full array of light group rewards.

"Junior Brother Lu Xuan, are you there?"

After resting for half a day, a deep voice came from outside the talisman array.

"Here I am."

Lu Xuan hurried to the foot of the mountain, opened the streamer array, and saw a middle-aged monk with a Chinese character face and a serious expression standing straight in front of the array.

His spiritual consciousness scanned slightly and he realized that the middle-aged monk's cultivation level was no less than the middle stage of foundation building, and his expression suddenly became more solemn.

"I wonder what I should call you, senior brother? What do you have to do with Mr. Lu?"

"Junior Brother Lu, just call me Senior Brother Huang."

"I came here this time to give you a mission. Junior brother has been promoted to an inner disciple for several years, and it's time to complete the sect's garrison mission."

"The sect's garrison mission? Senior brother, please inform me in detail."

Lu Xuan's heart tightened and he said respectfully.

"Yes, this is the obligation that every foundation-building disciple should fulfill."

"The sect has many stations throughout the world of cultivation, which are used to collect resources, guard dangerous areas, protect casual cultivators, etc. Most of them need to be stationed by foundation-building monks to suppress some young people to prevent the sect's interests from being damaged. "

"Senior Brother Huang, can I not choose this sect garrison mission? Or extend it for dozens or hundreds of years."

Lu Xuan asked tentatively.

"Junior Brother Lu, this is not feasible. The garrison task is usually given to the inner disciples who have been in the sect for a few years. After all, the early stage of foundation establishment is completely sufficient. It would be a waste to use the same disciples in the middle stage of foundation establishment."

"If junior brother doesn't want to go, it may cause senior brothers from the Discipline Hall to come over and solve the problem, and he may be punished for it."

Lu Xuan twitched the corner of his mouth. Although he rarely went out and didn't communicate much with his fellow disciples, he also knew the reputation of the Discipline Hall. Once they came over, he would at least shed his skin.

"What are the typical punishments?"

He still retains a trace of luck in his heart. If he is only punished with spirit stones or sword seals, it is not unacceptable to spend money to eliminate disasters.

The middle-aged monk's words made his heart feel cold.

"Disobeying the sect's instructions is usually punished by being confined for ten years and not allowed to go out for activities for ten years. After the end of the period, you will still be forced to complete the task."

"Ten years of confinement?"

Lu Xuan shook his head. If it were really closed for ten years, most of the spiritual plants on the mountain would have withered their mature flowers and fruits.

"Junior brother Lu, there is no need to be so resistant. The sect will not let you waste several years of effort."

"During the period of being stationed, there will be at least three hundred sword seals as a subsidy every year, and the places where they are stationed are usually small families and casual cultivators. There is almost no risk. It is rare to hear that a fellow disciple has lost his life because of this."

Seeing Lu Xuan's reluctance, the middle-aged monk explained.

"Three hundred sword seals every year? That means you can get at least three fourth-grade spiritual seeds."

Since he couldn't refuse, Lu Xuan could only accept it. Fortunately, the number of subsidized sword seals did not disappoint him.

"Please also ask senior brother to introduce me to the details of the place where I can go to garrison."

"good."

The middle-aged monk nodded.

"There are currently three places for you to choose from, Junior Brother Lu."

"The first place needs to be arrived within three months. It is a city of casual cultivators that produces several kinds of rare ores. It is less than a thousand miles away from the Luomeng Mountains. It can subsidize 300 sword seals every year."

"Although it has the smallest number of sword seals, it is more popular because it is located near the Luomen Mountain Range and there are many secret realms around it. Monsters and beasts often appear there. There are other inner disciples vying for this opportunity."

"The second location is located in Xuanyin City, where many large forces are located. The sect has only a moderate say in the city and needs to arrive within one month."

"Xuanyin City is more than a thousand miles away from Jiyin Sect. It is easy to encounter evil cultivators. It is the first choice place for those fellow sects who want to hone their fighting abilities."

"Due to the higher risk, more sword seals will be subsidized. There are 360 ​​sword seals every year."

"Where's the last one?"

Lu Xuan asked with a frown. He was not satisfied with the two garrison locations. One was close to the Luomeng Mountains and the other was not far from the Jiyin Sect. It sounded like they were both quite risky.

"The last one is located near the boundless sea, a large island that produces some special spiritual products, sea fish and sea beasts, as well as some rare spiritual herbs, etc."

"It is said that rare spiritual fluids can occasionally be found on the surrounding islands."

"But there are not many opportunities there, and the purpose of tempering oneself cannot be achieved. In addition, it is located in a bitter cold place, so it is usually semi-mandatory to entrust an inner disciple to go there. The number of sword seals subsidized per year is 320. .”

"Specialty marine fish and sea beasts, rare spiritual herbs, and the possibility of discovering spiritual liquid?"

"The most important thing is that there are no secret realms, and the evil sect monks mean that the security is more reliable."

Hearing this, Lu Xuan's eyes lit up.

"Senior Brother Huang, then I will choose the island near the boundless sea."

"I am a casual cultivator. I am not afraid of hardship or fatigue. I asked my senior brother to grant me permission to go to the island to train for a few years."

Lu Xuan said to the middle-aged monk with a sincere face.

It is safe, reliable and risk-free. You can also see various sea beast spiritual grasses. At the same time, it is possible to find the spiritual liquid that can cultivate dragon bones grass. Where can you find such a good job?

"Junior brother Lu, are you sure?"

The middle-aged monk asked with some confusion. There were really too few inner disciples who usually chose that island, and all of them wanted to stay away from the bitter cold island. Lu Xuan's behavior made him a little uncomfortable.

Everyone wants to look for opportunities to slay demons and protect the way, but no one takes the initiative to move closer to the Bitter Cold Island.

"Sure sure."

Lu Xuan responded quickly.
