You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 627: Ghost Eating Evil Vine

Time kept passing, and one after another, Primordial Infant True Monarchs approached the Pagoda Villain, informing the little figure of their guesses or recognition concerning a certain treasure item.

At last, a Primordial Infant True Monarch stood before the uneven Beast’s Skin, his face showing a clear trace of joy.

It seemed he had guessed the nature of the odd Beast’s Skin quite accurately, except maybe some detail had not satisfied the Instrument Spirit Villain, so as a precaution, he waited to see how things would unfold.

Additionally, three other Primordial Infant True Monarchs were also punched far away by the little figure, then they returned to the crowd with composed expressions.

"As expected of a Primordial Infant True Monarch, look at that level of mental steadfastness, far stronger than that of the Golden Core Real People.”

Lu Xuan muttered to himself internally.

Similarly, many “Cultivators” around were discussing animatedly.

"Even the Primordial Infant True Monarchs can’t recognize what this treasure item’s origin is! What chance do we have in identifying it?”

"If I can’t recognize it, and the Primordial Infant True Monarchs can’t either, doesn’t that mean I am on the same level as a Primordial Infant True Monarch?”

Seeing that the Primordial Infant True Monarchs couldn’t recognize it either, many of the “Cultivators” present felt much better.

Noticing that fewer “Cultivators” were willing to try their hand at identifying the treasures, Lu Xuan followed a few “Cultivators” who hid their aura and appearance and approached the Pagoda Villain.

He pretended to closely examine the strange Beast’s Skin and the minerals, finally stopping at the Demonic Spirit Seed encircled by Evil Ghosts.

"Elder, I have some vague recollections about this Spirit Seed, as if I’ve seen it somewhere before, but I can’t remember at this moment,” he said.

"May I ask the elder’s permission to plant it in Spirit Soil for a while and nurture it using basic Spirit Plant Methods? Perhaps that would help me recall.”

"I possess some talent in the area of Spirit Plants and might be able to sense something from it.”

"I promise to handle the Spirit Seed with utmost care and ensure it does not get damaged in any way,” he promised earnestly to the Pagoda Villain.

"Fine, but with all these requests, I’ll have to punch you even further away later,” said the Pagoda Villain, who not being worried about Lu Xuan causing any trouble inside the Treasure Tower, shook its little fist threateningly.

Lu Xuan struggled to divert his gaze from the Treasure Light emanating from its mouth and took out a handful of Spirit Soil from his Storage Bag.

"If it allows me to plant it in Spirit Soil, isn’t that almost a guarantee?” he thought to himself.

He then carefully placed the Demonic Spirit Seed in the Spirit Soil, and a faint trace of Spirit Rain seeped into the seed.

"What is he doing? Planting the Spirit Seed right here?”

His actions caught the attention of everyone around, many showing puzzled expressions.

"Even handling it directly couldn’t reveal its type, and planting it is supposed to work? That’s far too incredible,” some people muttered quietly in disbelief.

"However, I have not yet broken through to Core Formation. If it were known that the Spirit Seed came into my possession, I fear it might attract unwanted scrutiny from those at the Core Formation level or even the Nascent Soul stage. I earnestly request that the elder keep my aura, appearance, and identity confidential to avoid unnecessary troubles.”

"A small matter.”

The Pagoda Villain waved its tiny fist.

"In my territory, no one dares to act rashly, and I won’t let this Spirit Seed bring you any trouble.”

It promised Lu Xuan in a childlike voice.

Consequently, Lu Xuan felt relieved and respectfully received the Spirit Seed.

"Thanks to that legendary book, I unexpectedly obtained a rare Sixth Grade Spirit Species from a Strange Realm’s Cave Heaven.”

He thought to himself.

While the ownership of three treasures remained undecided, one was openly watched as it fell into the hands of a mysterious cultivator.

"Did that person actually recognize it?”

As the Spirit Seed vanished, a buzz ran through the crowd.

This was a treasure coveted by High Order Magical Artifact Instrument Spirits, and it came from a Strange Realm, making its rarity and uniqueness obvious. Unexpectedly, it fell into the hands of someone so inexplicably.

For a moment, countless envious and jealous eyes fell on Lu Xuan.

"Had I known that simply placing the Spirit Seed in Spirit Soil would reveal its identity, I would have tried it long ago. How did it end up with this cultivator?”

Many regretted not thinking of such a method earlier.

Some cultivators, still possessing a fragment of reason, understood that it was not as simple as placing it in Spirit Soil to identify it. It must be that the cultivator possessed vast knowledge of Spirit Plant, thus allowing them to recognize the Spirit Seed.

Lu Xuan noticed that many Spiritual Senses were directed around him, some out of curiosity and some with a bit of malice spying on him, but all were blocked outside by the prohibitions specially reinforced by the Artifact Spirit.

"Humph! Change it up!”

The Pagoda Villain hummed, a look of displeasure on its face, as thousands of meteorites traced paths of afterimages, moving in a particular pattern. When they stopped again, Lu Xuan’s figure had vanished.

In silence, it altered the meteorites’ shape, trajectory, and the prohibitions set upon them. Unless one openly revealed their identity and could be recognized based on cultivation level and appearance, the secrecy of those who intended to hide was greatly enhanced.

"This Instrument Spirit, shaped like a pagoda, is quite good. Not only did it give me a chance to obtain a rare Sixth Grade Spirit Species, but it also specially covered up my identity.”

Mingling in the crowd, Lu Xuan felt a trace of gratitude towards the Pagoda Villain.
