I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 1109 - 1106 Time Arrow
Chapter 1109: Chapter 1106 Time Arrow
Chapter 1109 -1106 Time Arrow
After having a brief chat with the swordsman guarding the top floor of the Scripture Treasury Pavilion, Lu Xuan hurried back to his cave abode.
“Nearly three months have passed; I wonder how the Inch Wood is doing now.”
He was preoccupied with those three Inch Wood plants capable of inducing spatial changes and, upon entering the cave abode, ignored the several Tree Mothers that approached him, heading straight to the core area of the Spirit Field.
“Thankfully, there are only a few spatial cracks, and they aren’t large enough to slip through.”
He released his divine sense, meticulously observing the spatial changes around the Inch Wood, identified several translucent crack-like spatial fissures, and harnessed the unique slight spatial force within the Spirit Wood to seamlessly resolve the fissures.
“This kind of Spirit Plant that inhabits space is troublesome; they always think about escaping into the void, requiring frequent checks and heightened vigilance.”
After securing the Inch Wood, Lu Xuan then felt at ease to check the other Spirit Plants in the field.
The newly planted mass of Fifth Rank Sword Grass had already taken root and sprouted, with many slender little swords about three inches tall pointing straight at the sky, their surroundings filled with a sharp Sword Qi.
The seven Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass plants had reached their mature stage, arranged harmoniously, their qi mechanisms remotely interacting, almost forming the embryo of a Sword Array.
Nearby, the Star Shifting Sun and Moon Sword Grass that he planted after coming to the Sword Sect was also in a rapid growth phase, its surrounding Sword Qi circulating like sun, moon, and stars, filled with countless mysteries.
Lu Xuan performed the respective sword techniques on each of these High Rank Sword Grass, allowing them to be amply nourished by the subtle Sword Qi.
For the remaining two Seventh Rank Sword Grass—Unlimited Freedom and Frosted Soul Light—he also performed the appropriate sword techniques, nourishing them with the ultimate differentiation of Sword Light and icy Sword Qi.
Since comprehending the “Dongxuan Sword Scripture” three months ago, he felt a significant improvement in his proficiency in the Sword Dao, handling the High Rank sword techniques more fluidly, as if directing his own limbs.
“The remaining ten Fifth Grade Origin Spirit Ginseng can also be used for condensing seeds now.”
Lu Xuan looked at the ten Spirit Ginseng in the field, which seemed almost tangible in vitality, thinking to himself.
Previously, in order to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in one fell swoop, he ripened more than ten stalks of Origin Spirit Ginseng, thereby harvesting a massive amount of Spiritual Energy in a short time.
The remaining ten were for condensing seeds.
Following the Condense Seed Technique for Origin Spirit Ginseng he had obtained earlier, he carefully guided the life force inside the Spirit Ginseng, blending it seamlessly with the Vitality.
“I also wonder if advancing to the Nascent Soul stage, the reward from harvesting the Origin Spirit Ginseng light clusters, will slightly decrease,”
he thought inwardly.
Many factors affected the light cluster reward; for example, if the gap between his cultivation level and the Spirit Plant was too large, it would slightly decrease the value of the reward.
If he were to plant third-grade Ice Firefly Grass in the Nascent Soul Realm, the cultivation reward would be pitifully small.
Therefore, while still in the Core Formation Realm, he pre-emptively cultivated several generations, finally obtaining a sufficient number of Origin Spirit Ginseng.
“A slight decrease doesn’t matter; I can now grow Origin Spirit Ginseng in bulk.”
Having finished condensing seeds, he returned to his house, continuing to comprehend the ancient book in the depths of his Sea of Consciousness, which contained numerous sword qi script.
Soon, half a month passed.
Today, after cultivating the Spirit Plants, he went deep into the Sword Palace.
The Sword Sect Treasury was located there.
This time, he planned to look inside for either True Spirit Essence Blood or some space- and time-related treasure items.
The former would be used to cultivate the Nine True Spirit Leaves, and the latter could help cultivate the final two layers of the Eightfold Palace, hence enabling him to start refining the Incomplete Cave Heaven.
It was said that the Sword Sect Treasury was under the control of a sword boy Artifact Spirit evolved from a High Order Magical Artifact, with Primordial Infant True Monarchs of the Sect able to exchange for coveted treasure items at a low cost.
Of course, the number of exchanges was limited, and when dealing with some specific treasure items, eligibility had to be verified.
Deep in the Sword Palace, after passing through numerous Prohibitions and Restrictions, Lu Xuan arrived at a simple stone cottage.
Outside the stone cottage, a youth with delicate and charming facial features was sitting cross-legged on a bluestone, a thin white sword inserted in his bun, adding a somber air to the youth.
“I am Lu Xuan from Huanzhen Sword Peak,” Lu Xuan said as he stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
“Lu Xuan? The Spirit Plant Master from Huanzhen Sword Peak? Very good, very good.”
The Sword Youth opened his eyes, which flashed with sharp Sword Light, and stood up to nod gently at Lu Xuan. His youthful voice added a peculiar contrast to his mature and serious tone.
“What brings you to me?” he asked.
Lu Xuan pondered for a moment, “Junior has planted a rare Spirit Plant and needs to gather a Time Treasure Item of no less than Seventh Grade. May I ask if there is one in the Sword Sect Treasury?”

With those three Inch Woods, he was not in a rush to collect Spatial Treasure Items, placing the Time Treasure Item as his priority.
“A Time Treasure Item… That is indeed rare. Let me think.”
The Sword Youth frowned slightly.
“I remember now; there’s a segment of Time Arrow of Seventh Grade Rank.”
His expression relaxed as he spoke softly.
“Time Arrow… Could senior please tell me more about its origin and uses?”
“The origin is not very clear; it has been in the treasury for many years.”
“As for its uses… The segment of Time Arrow contains a strand of the Power of Time, able to cross certain periods of time and instantly hit the target, gradually depriving the target of lifespan, leading them to age and die.”
“However, once the Time Arrow is refined, the ‘Cultivator’ will also be affected by the Power of Time, subtly losing some vitality and lifespan.”
“Using it merely for Cultivating Spiritual Plants would be rather wasteful.”
“Depriving the target of lifespan? I wonder how effective it is. It probably has noticeable effects on those below the Nascent Soul stage, but it would be less effective against Primordial Infant True Monarchs,” Lu Xuan thought to himself.
The Time Arrow sounded extremely daunting, but for a ‘Cultivator’ of the same rank or stronger, it seemed slightly underwhelming.
Using a Seventh Grade Treasure Item in exchange for some lifespan, the benefits and drawbacks were for the ‘Cultivator’ to decide.
But for Lu Xuan, the benefits far outweighed the drawbacks; as long as he could acquire the Light Cluster, the returns would surely far outweigh the cost.
“Could junior have a look at that Time Arrow?” Lu Xuan asked cautiously.
“No problem.”
The Sword Youth’s hand shimmered with Divine Sense, and a remarkable small arrow instantly appeared in his palm.
The arrowhead seemed formed from countless changing threads of reality and illusion, the arrow body flowed with an ethereal Spiritual light, resembling a Time River, while the tail trailed into the void, barely visible.
“With all due respect, may I ask how many Sword Marks are needed to acquire this segment of Time Arrow?”
Apart from making significant contributions to the Sword Sect, the treasures in the Sword Sect Treasury were not easily given to anyone; each required an exchange of Sword Marks.
“Thirty thousand Sword Marks.”
“Alright, then I will exchange for this segment of Time Arrow,” Lu Xuan said without hesitation.
A Seventh Grade Spiritual Seed was usually around ten thousand Sword Marks. The last time he asked Mo Yuanfeng to help him acquire the Millennium Spirit Milk, it costs twenty-one thousand Sword Marks. For this rare Time Treasure Item, thirty thousand Sword Marks was not considered expensive.
Besides, the main reason was that he currently had an abundance of Sword Marks.
Money was no object!
