I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates - Chapter 460

Chapter 460: 458

“A Foundation Establishment Mid-term cultivator who’s only taking charge of the Ten Thousand Beast Cave. So what if he has the Beast Owning Order?”

A thin figure slowly emerged from the darkness.

Upon closer inspection, Lu Xuan noticed that the figure was a grayish-black fox.

The fox seemed on the verge of death, with sluggish movements and cloudy eyes. Its matted, sparse gray-black fur danced wildly like a living entity.

On its back were several prominent gray-black tumours, which pulsated with the fox’s movement, seeming to incubate something within.

There was none of the dignity befitting a Five-grade Spirit Beast.

“Having the Beast Owning Order, you can naturally move freely in the restricted areas. Well, does this old fox, which has seldom seen sunlight, have any objections?”

The Old Dragon Turtle, superior in both age and strength to the fox, asked indifferently.

“Whether they live or die has nothing to do with me.”

With a final indifferent glance at Lu Xuan, the old fox uttered this sentence and retreated back into the darkness.

“Kid Lu, would you like to go down to the basement? Rest assured, my divining signs are very stable and there won’t be any mishaps.”

The Dragon Turtle asked Lu Xuan.

“Alright, I’ll have to trouble senior to accompany me.”

Lu Xuan was also curious about the lower layers of the forbidden area.

The man and beast slowly descended.

The bottom area was much smaller than the cave entrance with far fewer stone chambers, each of which was surrounded by powerful Formation Restrictions.

Lu Xuan, following the Dragon Turtle, curiously gazed into the stone chambers housing the metamorphosed demon beasts.

Firstly, he saw a demon snake with a beautiful young girl’s head. The sight of its pitiful, exquisite face evokes an urge to comfort her.

Looking at the pale body below the beautiful face, however, one would abandon that thought. Again, the sight of black holes crawling with grey-black worms that floated in the air, preying upon each other, hit him with a jarring impact.

Upon passing the next chamber, Lu Xuan saw hundreds of crimson pupils, turning the whole chamber crimson.

Many crimson pupils with limb-like tentacles crawled around aimlessly, like headless flies on the ground, ultimately merging into an evil monster beast’s body.

The beast did not have a head, but a gigantic red eye instead. Even through layers of Formation Restrictions, upon making eye contact with the red eye, Lu Xuan could still feel a headache and throbbing eyes as if something was crawling out from within.

The Dragon Turtle snorted coldly and overwhelmed the beast with its powerful aura, forcing the gigantic red eye to close.

“Having a big shot by my side feels so good, full of security.”

Lu Xuan secretly remarked.

Next, he saw a bizarre spider, its eight slender legs propped up high, resembling eight sharp bone knives.

The spider was vividly crimson, with a baby face lurking on its back, its eyes tightly closed, and countless blood-red tentacles spreading into the spider’s body.

…

All sorts of odd and twisted demon beasts appeared in front of Lu Xuan, satisfying the curiosity of someone who seldom hunted ordinary beasts.

After the Old Dragon Turtle showed him around, they swiftly returned to the cave entrance.

“Kid, if you ever want to enter the forbidden area again, you can directly get in with the Beast Owning Order.”

“The demon beasts, ferocious beasts, and evil beasts inside are all restrained by the formation restriction, and the magic artifacts and treasures are sealed and locked. As long as you do not provoke them, safety will not be compromised.”

“Before entering, you can come to me for a divination. If you encounter any dangerous situations, you can seek help from that old fox, who has been in the sect for nearly a thousand years and is trustworthy.”

“However, it tends to be a bit antisocial and seems difficult to deal with. Furthermore, unlike me, this old fellow probably doesn’t have much lifespan left. It has been staying in the forbidden area, researching and experimenting on ferocious and evil beasts, which might have something to do with this.”

The old dragon turtle communicated these instructions to Lu Xuan.

“Yes, thank you Dragon Turtle Senior for your reminder.”

Lu Xuan expressed his gratitude to the old dragon turtle, bid goodbye, and returned to the cloud house.

Unlike Sun Yun and the others, he didn’t need to tame spirit beasts. He just had to manage the entire blessed land from the cloud house every day.

During the guarding period, he practiced the newly learned “Blue Lotus Sword Canon” every day, along with two other sword techniques. In addition, he also studied the “God Derivation Sutra,” “Breaking Illusion Eye Technique,” and contemplated “Pure Yang True Fire Talisman.” His days were filled with productivity.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed by.

One day, his spiritual sense suddenly perceived a disturbance within the blessed land.

Looking down at the entire blessed land from the thick clouds, he saw thousands of spirit beasts running wildly on the ground, while birds and other winged spirit beasts soared high, creating streaks of light that flashed past Lu Xuan.

“What is happening?”

Lu Xuan wondered.

“Brother Lu, the Emperor’s Flow spiritual object is about to erupt in the blessed land. These spirit beasts have sensed it, making them somewhat anxious and restless.”

“At this moment, you can use the Beast Owning Order in your possession to stabilize all the spirit beasts to prevent any riots from breaking out among them.”

A Foundation Establishment First-term Stage Cultivator explained to Lu Xuan.

“Emperor’s Flow…”

Lu Xuan whispered to himself. With his spiritual sense infiltrating the Beast Owning Order in his hand, and under his control, all the spirit beasts within the entire blessed land couldn’t help but tremble slightly before settling down in various locations.

After waiting for a moment, Lu Xuan sensed something and looked up at the endless firmament.

He saw the dark blue sky suddenly become much brighter. Following that, strands of milky-white light dropped down from the high sky.

All the Guardian Beasts did not scramble for the milky-white light. They merely used their own innate bloodlines to intercept and absorb the light for their own use.

Lu Xuan stretched out his hand and let the milky-white light land on his palm.

The moment the light landed, he felt a surge of cool energy flow into his body, swiftly coursing through his whole body. His flesh and blood greedily absorbed the faint energy, constantly elevating his body’s constitution.

“The Emperor’s Flow is indeed mysterious. Even with my enhanced flesh body, I can feel a noticeable change after absorption.”

Lu Xuan’s thought moved, and he spread out his spiritual sense to try and capture as much of the falling milky-white light as possible.

“I need to collect more of this treasure to bring back to the Wind Falcon and the Fire Separation Flood Dragon. Maybe it can greatly promote the growth of the spirit beasts in our cave dwelling.”

Regrettably, the milky-white light was elusive, as if it had a predetermined quantity, making it extremely difficult to capture. He spent a lot of effort just to collect about half a bottle’s worth.

The amount of Emperor’s Flow erupting gradually decreased, and in less than a moment, the sky turned dark blue again.

Thousands of spirit beasts lay on the ground, absorbing and refining the Emperor’s Flow they had gathered.

From time to time, some spirit beasts would suddenly roar with their spiritual energy surging massively, significantly increasing their strength.

Much later, all the spirit beasts, feeling not having enough, returned to their dwellings.

Lu Xuan turned his head to look at his fellow disciples on the cloud and saw that the amount of Emperor’s Flow they had collected was less than one-third of his. Only then did his mood improve.
