You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 529: Taiyi Thunder Amulet

"I had originally thought that I had reached the limit of my understanding of various spirit beasts. Today, seeing Junior Brother Lu’s attainment in spirit beasts, I realise that I have been like a frog in a well, looking up at the sky. I wonder if there is a chance to have some interaction with you, Junior Brother?”

A faint smile appeared on Chen Luo’s face.

"If Senior Brother Chen wishes to come over, I will naturally be delighted.”

Lu Xuan courteously replied.

"By the way, Junior Brother Lu, you mentioned that you accidentally came across the information of the Mind-Confusing Viper bug in a certain ancient book. Could I borrow it to broaden my horizons?”

Chen Luo casually asked.

"I borrowed that ancient book from a friend. It has already been returned to its owner, so I can only apologize to you, Senior Brother.”

Lu Xuan casually made up a reason to refuse Chen Luo.

"Could Junior Brother Lu write down the contents of the book? I am especially curious and am willing to exchange a third-grade magic artifact for the content of that ancient book.”

Chen Luo continued to ask, his tone had a hint of urgency.

"Senior Brother, it’s been many years since I saw that book, and I’ve already forgotten most of the content. Today, I just happened to find that the condition of those spirit beasts was strangely familiar, which reminded me of it.”

"Besides, without the consent of others, it is rather inappropriate to share the content.”

Lu Xuan politely rejected.

A third-grade magic artifact is valuable to other Inner Sect disciples, but to him, it was not worth mentioning.

Besides, the reason he was clear about the Mind-Confusing Viper bug’s information was entirely derived from a special ability. The so-called ancient book was a fabrication, and naturally, it was not good to pass on to Senior Brother Chen Luo in front of him.

It wouldn’t be right to tell him that as long as he encountered abnormal spirit beasts and fed them something he would understand everything.

"Alright, I was presumptuous.”

Chen Luo laughed bitterly, his face changing unpredictably. His originally cold features became even more gloomy.

Lu Xuan said goodbye to him, and using the teleportation array, returned to the Array Hall.

After leaving the Array Hall, he headed straight back to his cave dwelling.

With his spiritual sense gathered, the semi-transparent progress bar beneath the plant was already at maximum.

The once dry and charred wood had undergone a great transformation. Full of life, it seemed like it was nurturing the power of thunder, with silvery-white thunder patterns expanding across its surface, creating an image of awe-inspiring dominance.

Above the Thunderwood, two Thunderstones which were continuously releasing the power of thunder towards the plant under the simple prohibition set up by Lu Xuan, were already showing numerous cracks, about to reduce to waste stones.

Lu Xuan harvested the Thunderwood, his spirit focused, and an idea surfaced in his mind.

“[Thunderwood, a Fourth Grade Spirit Plant, is nurtured with thunderous energy. When mature, it can be used to refine wood talismans, wooden swords, wooden seals, and other magical artifacts, and naturally carries the breath of thunder and lightning, having a strong counter effect on demonic spirits.]”

"It is actually one of good quality, which is a Fourth Grade Spirit Plant. It was worth it to use the Thunderstones to nourish you.”

Lu Xuan sent his spiritual sense sweeping by, his face filled with even more joy.

The higher the grade of a Spirit Plant, the more complicated the conditions for cultivation, and the lower the chance of getting high quality. To get a fourth-grade Thunderwood of good quality, the Fragmented Secret Land and the Thunderstones probably played the main part.

"Let’s see what kind of light cluster it will produce...”

He stored away this broken Thunderwood and turned his gaze towards the faintly flickering white light cluster on the ground.

Lightly touching it, the light cluster silently burst, condensing numerous specks of light into a shape of lightning, which flashed past, instantly surging into Lu Xuan’s body.

Lu Xuan only felt a slight tingling on his skin and a thought emerged in his mind.

“[Obtained one-fourth grade Thunderwood, gained a fifth-grade talisman, Taiyi Thunder Amulet.]”

A thought flashed, and a Talisman appeared in his palm.

The talisman was silver-white in colour, holding it caused a slight tingling sensation like a tiny electric current passing through his hand. Inside it, countless hair-thin thunders were moving about, seeming to have the ability to cause destructive power at any moment.

Lu Xuan focused his divine consciousness on the silver-white talisman in his hand, instantly understanding detailed information about the talisman.

“[Taiyi Thunder Amulet, fifth-grade Talisman, crafted with Taiyi Divine Thunder from beyond the heavens. Once activated, it can instantly release hundreds of Taiyi lightning lights, possessing powerful might, strong enough to severely injure or even slay a cultivator at the Early Core Formation stage.]”

“[It naturally counteracts demonic spirits and evil cultivators who cultivate corresponding techniques.]”

“[It’s a one-time use talisman. Once activated, the power of Thunder inside will be released instantly, indiscriminately attacking living beings within a certain radius. Handle with care.]”
