You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 242: Teaching

Lu Xuan's spiritual power surged within him as a large amount of fire-type spiritual energy gathered in front of him. Suddenly, a huge crimson fireball floated in the air, with waves of heat rolling towards him.

With a thought, the massive fireball instantly transformed into a several-zhang-long fire spear, its shaft burning with crimson flames. Like an arrow released from a bowstring, it shot rapidly towards the sky.

On its way, without slowing down, the fire spear naturally transformed into a fiery whip. The air crackled as the whip descended, leaving flames in its wake.

All the way to the top, the fire whip split into dozens or even hundreds of thin tendrils, spreading out to form a massive fire net.

As the fire net descended, it transformed into countless tiny flames, slowly dissipating in the air.

"The Flame Manipulation Technique allows me to control various forms of fire more effectively, adding many variations out of thin air."

"Just now, I only used ordinary flames. If I refine and fuse some rare exotic flames, the Flame Manipulation Technique can help me control them better."

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

In the next two days, besides cultivating spirit plants, he spent the rest of his time preparing for the lecture at the Transmission Hall.

In this process, he also took the opportunity to thoroughly organize his knowledge of spirit plants and spirit beasts.

On the third day, he calmly arrived at the Spirit Field.

After inspecting the Spirit Field, checking the growth status of all spirit plants, and using techniques like Spirit Rain and Wood Growth, he tried to meet the subtle needs of each spirit plant.

Among the ten Flame Fruit spirit plants, he found four mature Flame Fruits, all of excellent quality.

From the four white light clusters, two third-grade Ignition Pills emerged, a skill experience package for the Flame Manipulation Technique (Part 1), and finally, the lower part of the Flame Manipulation Technique.

Compared to the upper part, the lower part of the technique was more complex and obscure, making the practice more challenging.

Regardless of the difficulty, Lu Xuan wasn't too concerned. With the skill experience package brought by the Flame Fruits, absorbing one was equivalent to years of diligent practice.

As long as the light clusters were plentiful enough, he could push his technique all the way to the master level.

On the peak, the mature Jade Scale Fruits and the remaining spirit fruits on the Sword-Nurturing gourd had not reached full maturity yet.

Lu Xuan was in no hurry. He returned to his room and continued preparing for the lecture.

The next day, he woke up early, inspected the Spirit Field, and then headed to the Transmission Hall.

"Senior Lu."

In the ancient hall, a Qi-refining youth at the ninth level bowed respectfully to him.

"There's still some time before the agreed time; the fellow disciples who came to attend the lecture have not yet gathered. Please rest for a while, Senior."

"Alright."

Lu Xuan nodded lightly, going with the flow.

The youth led him into an ancient and elegant room where two Foundation Establishment cultivators were already waiting.

A woman in a yellow shirt, with a calm and elegant temperament, sat quietly on a wooden chair, sipping tea from a hot pot.

Not far away, a black-faced cultivator stood with his arms crossed, silent.

The robust figure of the cultivator exuded a faint aura of killing intent, indicating his rich combat experience.

"Hello, Senior Lu."

Lu Xuan scanned with his spiritual awareness and found that both of them were at the mid Foundation Establishment stage. He greeted them.

"Junior sister, Senior brother Zhang, are you both preparing for the lecture?"

After chatting with the two for a while, Lu Xuan gained some understanding of them and curiously asked.

"Yes, I have some insights into alchemy. I was invited by the Transmission Hall to come and share with the outer sect disciples."

"As for Senior Brother Zhang, he is renowned in the sect for his robust physique, not weaker than most fourth-grade magical weapons. He's here to share experiences related to body refinement."

The woman in the yellow shirt smiled and spoke gracefully.

"I wonder, Senior Lu, what aspects will you guide the outer sect disciples in?"

"I dare not claim to guide; it's more like exchanging knowledge."

Lu Xuan quickly denied.

"The content I'm going to teach is much more niche compared to what you two are sharing. There might not be many outer sect disciples coming to attend."

"Due to my usual interactions with various spirit plants and spirit beasts, this time, I will mainly talk about how to cultivate knowledge related to nurturing spirit plants and spirit beasts."

"Spirit plants? I see."

The woman in the yellow shirt was momentarily surprised, then nodded.

The black-faced cultivator showed no change in expression. He usually focused on diligent cultivation and didn't like wasting precious time on those flowers and plants.

But he also understood that being invited to the Transmission Hall to teach many outer sect disciples indicated that Lu Xuan had profound knowledge in the field of spirit plants.

"Surname Lu, at the early Foundation Establishment stage, proficient in spirit plants. Could it be that a few months ago, you were the one who solved the dying problem of the sect-protecting spirit beast, the Azure Profound Deer?"

The woman in the yellow shirt suddenly exclaimed, recalling something.

"Yes, it was me."

Lu Xuan nodded and admitted.

"I've heard of Junior Brother's name for a long time. To solve the lingering obsession of a fifth-grade sect-protecting spirit beast with only an early Foundation Establishment cultivation, truly admirable."

"Since ancient times, alchemy and spirit plants have been intertwined. Most spirit plants are mainly used in alchemy. If there is a chance in the future, Junior Brother, we can cooperate more."

Understanding Lu Xuan's identity, the woman in the yellow shirt became more enthusiastic, chatting with Lu Xuan incessantly.

"Senior Lu, it's time."

After a while, the ordinary youth from before came in and said to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan followed him to a spacious hall.

The hall was elegantly decorated, with over fifty outer sect disciples sitting inside. Seeing Lu Xuan entering, they all stood up and greeted.

"Hello, Senior."

Lu Xuan scanned with his spiritual awareness and found two familiar faces.

One was Xia Chen, the old farmer-like figure from the Agricultural Hall. After learning that Lu Xuan would come to give a lecture, he rushed over first, fearing he might miss something.

The other was a cute and lovely round-faced female cultivator. When Lu Xuan was in the Qi-refining stage, he took on a task from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to help her solve the problem of a second-grade mutated Flame Fruit.

The moment the round-faced female cultivator saw Lu Xuan, her expression seemed somewhat incredulous.

Lu Xuan, who was once below her in cultivation, had risen to become an inner sect disciple in just a few years, making it difficult for her to accept in an instant.

Seeing Lu Xuan ascend the wooden platform, she finally came back to her senses, looking at Lu Xuan's figure with complex emotions.

"Silence."

Lu Xuan whispered, and immediately the murmurs below quieted down.

"Today, I will teach you some cultivation methods and tricks related to spirit plants."
