You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 220: Opening of the Blessed Land

The rewards brought by the two top-quality plants were quite satisfactory.

One plant rewarded three years of cultivation, equivalent to three ordinary Firefly Grass, while the other yielded a third-grade treasure.

【Harvested one second-grade Firefly Grass and obtained a third-grade treasure, Aqua Pearl.】

【Aqua Pearl, a third-grade treasure. When held in the mouth, one can move freely in deep water, and it also enables cultivators to practice normally in aquatic environments.】

"Although Aqua Pearl is relatively simple in function, it can be quite effective in certain specific situations," Lu Xuan remarked. As the opening time approached, he took stock of his own strength.

After advancing to the Foundation Establishment realm, both his cultivation techniques and treasures underwent a tremendous change compared to the Qi refining stage.

The spiritual power alone was more than ten times deeper.

In terms of offense, he possessed the third-grade Purple Thunder Sword and Yue Jade Seal. In his dantian, there was the third-grade Xun Lei Sword Pill frequently used in nurturing sword grass, leading to the rapid progress of the Four Seasons Sword Art. Additionally, there were third-grade talismans such as Roaring Sea Sword Talisman, as well as third-grade symbols like Water Dragon Symbol and Purification Symbol, putting him at the forefront in the early Foundation Establishment stage.

For defense, there were third-grade Golden Marrow Jade Liquid, Jade Scale Fruit, the techniques of Lustrous Bone Forging and Dragon Transformation, and the enhancement of constitution and physical body with Wood Wall Technique, among others. The Qi Nourishing Pill and Thunderfire Bead also played significant roles.

Apart from these, there were abilities such as Concealing Spirit Robe, Floating Body Technique, and Five Elements Escape Technique for temporary invisibility and enhanced mobility.

Looking at it this way, even though he hadn't explored any external mysteries or engaged in life-and-death battles with others, his wealth of treasures and techniques had reached an extremely abundant level.

Of course, within the sect, he had always presented himself as an ordinary spirit plant cultivator, keeping his true strength a secret.

"After entering the Blessed Land, I should try to obtain spiritual seeds, eggs of spiritual beasts, and similar opportunities. Avoid conflicts with others as much as possible unless they seriously harm my interests and have a high chance of winning."

"The Blessed Land is overseen by Senior Brother Jie Dan. If I encounter any difficult situations, well... I can seek his help immediately."

While in the market, Lu Xuan, with his rich experience in reporting, once again awakened relevant talents.

Time swiftly passed, and soon it was time for the Blessed Land to open.

Lu Xuan had already learned the way to enter the Blessed Land. Placing the Sword Command in front of him, he sat cross-legged with a calm and peaceful expression, quietly waiting.

Suddenly, the Sword Command emitted a dazzling light, accompanied by a strong attractive force.

Lu Xuan seized it, and his spiritual awareness entered it. Immediately, his entire figure disappeared from the room.

Above the high sky, countless stars circulated, occasionally, sword qi streaked across the sky like meteors.

Lu Xuan shook his head slightly, dispelling the slight discomfort in his mind, and looked around.

At this moment, he was floating in mid-air, with nothing beneath his feet. He couldn't determine his exact location or see anything below.

"Could it be that I entered the sect's protective array, the Seven Stars Sword Formation?"

Looking at the myriad stars and the powerful sword intent occasionally passing by, he recalled the protective array he had seen from a distance when he entered the sect. According to his fellow disciple who led him into the sect, the Seven Stars Sword Formation was a seventh-grade formation. Even Nascent Soul experts might face the risk of falling within it.

Ten yards away, a middle-aged cultivator exuded boundless coldness, with a pale complexion, standing silently in mid-air, his aura vast and endless.

"Senior Brother, hello."

Lu Xuan's face changed slightly, quickly bowing respectfully and greeting.

The middle-aged cultivator nodded slightly without saying a word.

Lu Xuan retreated quietly and found that there were already more than ten cultivators nearby, each holding a Sword Command.

Inner sect disciples appeared in the high sky instantly. Among them, some had crossed paths with Lu Xuan before, and Liusu, who had some acquaintance with him, was among them.

"Junior Brother Lu, I didn't expect to enter the Blessed Land with you."

Seeing Lu Xuan, Liusu's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and she secretly transmitted her voice.

"Hello, Senior Sister Liusu. I just got lucky. When I helped Senior Brother Ge solve his spiritual beast problem, he was overjoyed and gave me a Sword Command."

"But, as Senior Sister knows, I am usually immersed in cultivating spirit plants, slack in practicing, and my cultivation is average. I am not good at combat. After entering the Blessed Land, I hope Senior Sister will take care of me."

Lu Xuan smiled slightly, transmitting his voice to Liusu.

"It's natural to take care of each other."

Liusu flew to the side quietly, not saying anything more to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan noticed that there were over thirty inner sect disciples with Sword Commands, among whom more than twenty had similar cultivation to him, in the early Foundation Establishment stage. There were ten in the mid Foundation Establishment stage, and a few whose cultivation was hard to discern, possibly due to the concealment of treasures or techniques.

"As far as I know, there are over two hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators in the sect. Excluding those in closed-door cultivation, stationed in other places, or exploring opportunities, it can be said that among the inner sect disciples remaining in the sect, nearly half have the qualifications to enter the Blessed Land."

With over thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators, he was at the bottom level. The intense competition made Lu Xuan slightly nervous.

"Alright, almost everyone is here."

"This time, I will open the Blessed Land. Another Foundation Establishment cultivator will maintain and oversee the Blessed Land."

"Among you, there may be some who have entered the Blessed Land more than once and are familiar with the rules, but I still want to reiterate."

"After entering the Blessed Land, you are responsible for clearing demonic beasts during the exploration process. Of course, any materials obtained from demonic beasts belong to you."

"The demonic beasts in the Blessed Land are rare species rarely seen in the cultivation world. Just the materials you obtain will make your trip worthwhile."

"Due to frequent cleaning, you should be able to handle it. If you encounter a life-threatening situation, you can seek assistance from the Foundation Establishment cultivator."

"Another point that must be emphasized is that killing or seriously harming fellow disciples is prohibited in the Blessed Land. You can compete, but no deadly battles. If you are found killing or even harming fellow disciples, the punishment will range from a hundred years of confinement to soul extraction, never entering the cycle of reincarnation. Remember that?"

"Understood."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Very well."

"If you can adhere to these rules, you will receive good opportunities."

The middle-aged cultivator's intense coldness eased a bit, and a stiff smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

He spread out his hands, and immediately, the Sword Commands in everyone's hands flew out and

gathered together. The myriad stars rotated with mysterious trajectories, and in the void, a faint light gate appeared at some unknown time.

Inside the light gate, various strange scenes flashed by from time to time, as if it contained a magical world.

A hundred-zhang sword light condensed, like a lightning bolt, instantly piercing through hundreds of miles, fiercely stabbing into the faint light gate.

A slender crack appeared on the light gate, and the crack continued to spread, forming a giant opening.

"Go in."

Hearing the middle-aged cultivator's words, Lu Xuan, eager in his heart, controlled the Purple Thunder Sword, following behind other inner sect disciples, and entered the giant crack.
