You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 239: Crimson Lotus Flame, Bursting Flame Bead

Lu Xuan focused his mind on the lotus-shaped flames, and information about it immediately surfaced.

"The Crimson Lotus Flame, a third-grade rare fire, the companion flame of the Heavenly Crimson Lotus. It can be used for alchemy and refining tools, slightly enhancing the quality and success rate of pills and artifacts."

"The companion flame of the Heavenly Crimson Lotus?" Lu Xuan mumbled to himself.

"Even the companion flame is already a third-grade rare fire. I wonder what grade the Heavenly Crimson Lotus itself is."

Hearing the name of the spiritual plant, he felt a bit itchy, wondering if he could get a chance to cultivate it.

The luminous sphere wasn't important; he was more interested in challenging the difficulty of cultivating a high-grade spiritual plant.

Lu Xuan placed the Crimson Lotus Flame in a special jade vessel and continued examining the spiritual fruits on the Flame Fruit plant.

"Hey, found another one."

Lu Xuan grinned, looking at the flame-shaped spiritual fruit hidden among the pale red leaves.

Carefully, he plucked it.

"Good quality, not bad."

A thought flashed in his mind.

"Flame Fruit, a second-grade spiritual fruit..."

After picking the spiritual fruit, the real highlight appeared – a white luminous sphere in its original position.

Contrasted against the pale red leaves, the white luminous sphere shone brightly, captivating the eyes.

"Let's show off, little treasure."

Lu Xuan raised an eyebrow, reaching out to gently touch the surface of the luminous sphere.

The sphere exploded with a bang, turning into countless dots of light that scattered. Soon after, they were all attracted to Lu Xuan's body, flowing into him like a rainbow piercing through the sky.

"Harvested one second-grade Flame Fruit, obtained a third-grade treasure, Bursting Flame Bead."

A crimson stone bead appeared in Lu Xuan's hand, egg-sized, with fiery magma surging inside.

It seemed like an impending volcanic eruption, harboring a terrifying power within.

Lu Xuan concentrated his mind, and information about the stone bead instantly appeared in his mind.

"Bursting Flame Bead, a third-grade treasure, sealed with a high-level fire technique, Bursting Flame Art. When activated, it can unleash a scorching flame attack over a large area, with extremely powerful lethality."

"A wide-range attack technique, explosion as an art."

Lu Xuan carefully stored the third-grade Bursting Flame Bead in his storage bag, fearing it might accidentally detonate.

It was fine if it exploded on him, but he didn't want it to happen with all the vegetation on the mountain.

After circling around ten Flame Fruit plants and not finding any other fully matured spiritual fruits, Lu Xuan inspected other spiritual plants on the mountain.

In the Earth Fire Tributary, the eighty-plus Firefly Grass plants he had planted had already taken root and sprouted. The light blue leaves were adorned with shimmering white lights, giving them a dreamlike appearance.

As a gentle breeze passed by, the tender leaves swayed gently, exuding a vigorous and unrestrained vitality.

Lu Xuan's spiritual power surged, and he skillfully cast Spirit Rain Technique, ensuring each Firefly Grass received sufficient nourishment.

"It truly deserves to be a special spiritual soil; the growth rate of the spiritual plants is much faster than usual."

Comparing the growth trend with the previous Firefly Grass, Lu Xuan sighed.

In another Earth Fire Tributary, the four Profound Insect Vines had already sensed Lu Xuan's approach. The sound of a subtle rustling pine forest reached Lu Xuan's ears, expressing their affection.

After nurturing the fourth-grade Profound Insect Vines day and night with his spiritual awareness, they became full of spirituality. They were like immobile infants, and whenever Lu Xuan approached, they would generate endless joy.

A light gray vine, like a sneak thief, slid out from Lu Xuan's sleeve, hiding behind one of the Profound Insect Vines. It would occasionally stand tall or lie down beside the small pine tree, as if measuring how to approach its target.

Lu Xuan's gaze swept over, and the Ghostly Vine Seedling, the gray vine, shook a bit. It came to Lu Xuan's side with three steps forward, one backward.

Wherever it went, it left a trace of sticky residue.

Lu Xuan carefully collected the mischievous Ghostly Vine Seedling and went to the entrance of the Earth Fire Tributary cave, jumping in.

In the scorching magma, the fourth-grade Fire Heart Lotus floated up and down, allowing the fiery magma to continuously wash and cleanse it.

Above, in a recessed cave entrance, the charred Phoenix Wood lay quietly.

On the surface of the charred wood were numerous dark golden cracks, extending to the central part, forming a pair of phoenix shadows. The shadowed wings had dark golden patterns, vivid and lifelike, as if they could fly out of the charred wood at any moment.

"Hungry for a month or two; today, I'll let you eat your fill."

The fiery aura from the Earth Fire Tributary could only barely sustain the Phoenix Wood's vitality. To truly promote its growth, a third-grade or higher rare fire was needed.

Lu Xuan took out a runed jade box from his storage bag, releasing the Crimson Lotus Flame inside.

As it emerged, the dark golden cracks on the charred wood instantly lit up. A strong suction force emanated, attracting the Crimson Lotus Flame.

Lu Xuan released his hand, and the Crimson Lotus Flame danced and rotated, approaching the Phoenix Wood.

Petals ignited, turning into fine flames that struck all around the Phoenix Wood.

The flames scattered, then merged into the dark golden cracks, continuously flowing towards the central part of the charred wood.

Filling the phoenix shadows, a crimson lotus flower grew rapidly from the center of the wood, petals quietly blooming.

A pair of thumb-sized phoenix shadows remained in the petals, occasionally emitting clear and melodious chirps, exuding a strong sense of joy.

"Phoenix Lotus of the Charred Wood."

"Finally, I can cultivate you properly for a while."

Lu Xuan looked at the delicate and exquisite phoenix shadows, feeling emotional.

With the ripening of the Flame Fruit, obtaining the third-grade Crimson Lotus Flame and the third-grade treasure Bursting Flame Bead, one resolved his urgent need, and the other greatly supplemented his attack methods.

Thinking about the many Flame Fruits waiting to be harvested, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel in high spirits.

He took out a large amount of monster meat from the house, evenly distributed the Flame Fruits and Jade Scale Fruits he obtained, and combined them with the previously prepared Hundred-Fruit Spiritual Elixir.

The fragrance of meat, fruits, and the aroma of spiritual liquid filled the air.

A light blue figure swiftly flew by; the Wind Falcon chick with a round belly stopped abruptly, staring eagerly at the abundant food in the courtyard.

The young dragon followed closely, staying next to the Wind Falcon and mostly focusing on the Flame Fruits from the same source.

"Howl..."

The Cloud-Stepping Lynx roared softly, with a hint of longing, pretending not to care as it circ

led around the courtyard wall.

Four heads emerged one by one from an open space, all looking at the abundance of food without blinking.

On the Ghostly Vine Seedling, the newly grown tentacle-like vines danced continuously, showing extreme excitement.

In its memory, eating a bit of spiritual plant body and monster meat was considered very fortunate, as long-term hunger was the norm.

For the semi-imprisoned Ghostly Vine family in the medicinal garden, having something to eat was already quite good; they didn't care about taste or preferences.

And now...

Sizzling sounds echoed, and the fragrant aroma of grilled monster meat, high-quality spiritual fruits, and a variety of materials blended into spiritual elixirs...

Where had they experienced such a feast!

For a moment, the Ghostly Vine Seedling was a bit dizzy, and Lu Xuan, busy on the side, continued to elevate.

"Let's eat!"

As this was said, the excitement reached its peak.
