You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 1082: Attract New Members

The Thunder Dragon Behemoth saw the White Ape acting like this and began reconsidering retreating.

However, the White Ape had already sparked its bloodlust. It was relentless, seemingly determined to fight to the death.

“This White Ape…”

Lu Xuan shook his head. With a thought, a Five-Colored Enchanted Ring descended from the sky and instantly immobilized the White Ape.

The White Ape let out deep growls, but under the constriction of the seventh-grade Five Thunders Immortal Locking Bracelet, it could not move at all.

After a few moments, the intense blood-red hue in its eyes gradually faded away, and its intelligence cleared:

“Master… Thank you for your trouble.”

Its voice was hoarse as it turned and spoke to Lu Xuan in a low tone.

“Train more diligently. What did you do with that monkey hair I gave you last time?”

“Refine it sooner. Your strength will skyrocket, and then you’ll be able to defeat the Thunder Dragon Behemoth.”

Lu Xuan chastised it in a tone full of exasperation.

“Master speaks the truth.”

The White Ape nodded in agreement.

Lu Xuan released the ring’s binding on it, and the White Ape staggered before immediately steadying itself again.

“While refining, don’t forget to condense a few more Heart Ape Fruit Spirit Seeds for me.”

“Spirit Brew made primarily from Heart Ape Fruit can appease that terrifying figure from Fire God Palace. Who knows what opportunities might come your way because of it?”

Lu Xuan encouraged.

*So long as it didn’t result in severe injuries or life-threatening situations, he didn’t mind letting his spirit beasts compete in such a cutthroat manner.*

*The earlier the White Ape breaks through, the better it is for him.*

After acquiring the seventh-grade Five Thunders Immortal Locking Bracelet, Lu Xuan had spent considerable time and energy refining this rare treasure while continuing to cultivate spiritual plants.

Of the magic treasures he was currently refining, the Yin Yang Origin Magnetism Divine Needle and the Southern Bright Thunderfire Mirror were both formidable offensive types, while the Five Thunders Immortal Locking Bracelet was a powerful control type, greatly enhancing his overall strength.

Combined with the few middle-rank divine skills he cultivated, he could even take on a Primordial Infant True Monarch one-on-one, albeit barely.

Even if facing an unbeatable foe, his chances of escaping were exceptionally high.

In the blink of an eye, over half a year had passed.

Lu Xuan sat cross-legged, his consciousness sinking deep into his dantian.

A Five-Colored Enchanted Ring, compressed to the size of a ring, floated near his Golden Core, where faint blue Pill Fire burned it gently. Lu Xuan sensed the subtle, almost imperceptible bond between himself and the ring.

With a thought, the Five-Colored Ring shot out, transforming into a bracelet swirling with lightning that zipped around him at high speed.

After retracting the Five Thunders Immortal Locking Bracelet, Lu Xuan entered the Spirit Field to inspect his vast array of spiritual plants.

Thanks to his careful tending over this period, all the spiritual plants were thriving tremendously.

After cultivating them one by one, he headed to a secluded courtyard in Heart Sword Lake.

At the very center of the courtyard, a scabbard lay on the ground, nurturing the Silver White Sword Grass Spirit Seeds within it.

“Their condition looks pretty good.”

Lu Xuan remarked, grabbing the scabbard and giving it a firm shake, causing over twenty spirit seeds to slide out one after the other.

He planted all the spirit seeds into the Spirit Soil and inspected them one by one.

[Thousand Thunder Sword Grass, fourth-grade mutant spiritual plant…]

“The last time I honed swords showed promising results, resulting in two Mutated Spirit Seeds.”

*Lu Xuan felt delighted in his heart.*

Nourished by the sword blades all over the Sword Mystic Porcupine’s body, the scabbard had returned to peak condition, even inducing two Mutated Sword Grass Spirit Seeds once again.

“I’ll have to pluck some wool from the Sword Mystic Porcupine more often in the future.”

“After all, it’s all for the sake of giving them optimal care!”

*He silently mused.*

After painting a rosy picture for the Nurturing Xuan Sword Sheath, he returned to his cave abode to plant the two Mutated Thousand Thunder Sword Grass Spirit Seeds.

The other four Mutated Sword Grass plants had already grown to about one foot tall. Their Sword Intent was pure, and he could sense the miraculous Thunder Spirit Sword Aura brewing within their stems.

“Might as well bring them up to the same progress.”

Lu Xuan wanted the six Mutated Sword Grass plants to condense seeds at the same time period to stimulate another round of mutation. So, he decided to accelerate the ripening process of the newly planted two.

Over the years, the Divine Wood Green Pot had accumulated an entire potful of Plant Spirit Aura. Coupled with the remaining few dozen drops of Mixed Element Tree Liquid, accelerating the ripening of two fourth-grade Mutated Sword Grass plants would pose no issue.

After a brief round of ripening, he performed another cycle of the Spirit Rain Technique before returning to the courtyard.

Just as he was about to refine the Five Thunders Immortal Locking Bracelet, he suddenly felt a familiar presence outside the cave abode.

Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Sense swept over and instantly spotted the Sword Mystic Porcupine that had visited once before.

“Maintenance happens either once—or countless times afterward.”

“Once you’ve tasted the perks, it’s easy to get hooked.”

*He smirked, his body flashing as he arrived at the entrance of the cave abode.*

“Long time no see! Are you here for another full-body maintenance session this time?”

Lu Xuan greeted the now very familiar Sword Mystic Porcupine with a smile.

The Sword Mystic Porcupine rolled half a revolution toward him, nodding its agreement.

Its movements were light, its heart bounding with eager anticipation. It was clear it had high expectations for the next maintenance session.

“The maintenance isn’t a problem, but last time, the scabbard spent too much time maintaining you, consumed excessive resources, and its condition isn’t very good right now.”

Thinking about the Ancient Sword Sheath that shuddered with joy every time it touched the Sword Mystic Porcupine’s blades, Lu Xuan decided to feign concern.

“What should I do?”

“What should I do?”

With its limited intelligence, the Sword Mystic Porcupine didn’t catch the implied hint in Lu Xuan’s words, simply repeating the thought over and over.

“The best thing would be to find a way to restore its vitality and help it return to peak state.”

“After all its hard work, it just needs a small treasure as a token of appreciation—something to motivate it for the next round of maintenance.”

Knowing the Sword Mystic Porcupine’s urgent need for the scabbard, Lu Xuan pretended to ponder briefly before slowly speaking.

“However, you and I are friends. Using treasure to calculate our bonds feels too vulgar.”

He said with righteousness.

The Sword Mystic Porcupine transmitted a sense of deep emotion, clearly moved, to the point where it almost threw itself at Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan quickly stopped the creature before it pierced him with countless sword blades in its enthusiasm.

“Here’s an idea.”

“You could bring over some of the other Sword Mystic Porcupines from the Hundred Artisans Sword Peak to let the scabbard maintain them too.”

“You’ve tried it once, so you know how effective the maintenance can be, right?”

Lu Xuan asked the Sword Mystic Porcupine.

The Sword Mystic Porcupine immediately rolled another half-circle forward. It had been reminiscing about the delightful sensation of the maintenance since it last experienced it. Unable to find Lu Xuan in the Sword Sect, it had sought him out here at the cave abode.

“If you can bring one Sword Mystic Porcupine over and make it a regular client of the scabbard, I’ll give you a ten percent discount on future full-body maintenance sessions.”

“Bring two Sword Mystic Porcupines over, and I’ll give you a thirty percent discount.”

“Bring them all here, and I’ll give you fifty percent off all future maintenance sessions, plus ten free sessions as an additional bonus!”

Lu Xuan skillfully persuaded.

After hearing the proposal, the Sword Mystic Porcupine froze in place, taking a long time to process the meaning behind Lu Xuan’s words.

Once it finally understood, the Sword Mystic Porcupine immediately nodded in agreement, promising to bring as many of its kin as possible to Lu Xuan in the future.

It even nervously asked if it could preemptively receive one of the free sessions right away.

Lu Xuan didn’t refuse. He retrieved the scabbard from Heart Sword Lake.

Three days of intense maintenance later, the Sword Mystic Porcupine left satisfied.

“From now on, you’ll have an endless stream of sword blades to enjoy.”

“Being a scabbard isn’t easy. Collecting a bit of payment from them on your behalf is only fair!”

*Lu Xuan chuckled in his heart.*

The Sword Mystic Porcupines held significant status on Hundred Artisans Sword Peak. Plucking just a bit of their wool should yield quite a bounty.
