You practice immortality, I farm 2

Chapter 1091: Why are you risking your life to get a promotion?
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the many spiritual plants in the spiritual fields grew well.

After Lu Xuan obtained the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword Grass spirit seed, he immediately went to the Sword Sect's Scripture Pavilion and learned the first half of a high-level ice sword technique.

With the assistance of Tongming Sword Heart and Leiming Sword Courage, and his aptitude and spirit had been greatly improved, it didn't take long for him to reach a proficient level.

He only needed to cultivate the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword Grass and there was no need to practice the more complicated and obscure parts later on.

After more than two years of cultivation, the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword Grass has grown into seedlings about an inch long.

A small plant stood proudly, with a thick layer of frost condensed in the spiritual soil around it, and countless tiny sword energies were moving rapidly in the frost.

After Lu Xuan inspected all the spiritual plants in the spiritual field, he stood up and flew to the Sword Palace.

The Sword Palace was crowded with people. The cultivators from the nine sword peaks were divided into nine areas with clear boundaries, and everyone had a solemn expression.

The Jianfeng Competition is about to begin.

"This is my second time participating in the Sword Peak Competition. I should be able to achieve excellent results in spiritual plants, spiritual brewing, and talisman making."

Lu Xuan secretly sighed below.

This time, he still did not consider competing with the other Sword Sect disciples in combat power. For no other reason, he simply looked down upon almost all the rewards offered by the Sword Sect.

There are only two or three items that are worthy of your attention, and you have to be in the top three to get them. That would expose Lu Xuan's true strength, which would be a waste of time.

As for the competition in practicing the hundred arts, he signed up for the same category as last time.

Although his alchemy and formation skills have improved a lot over the years, Lu Xuan is unwilling to show them to outsiders.

After all, if you only get an average score, it won’t make much difference whether you are there or not. If you want to get a B or even A grade, you must put in some real effort.

His skills in cultivating spiritual plants, brewing spiritual wine, and making talismans are already quite outstanding. If another person with a similar level appeared, it would be too monstrous.

As he lowered his head and sighed, a thousand-foot-long sword appeared above everyone.

A number of Yuanying Zhenjuns were floating in the sky, giving off a strong sense of oppression.

With the announcement of a great master from the Sword Sect, the Sword Peak Competition has just begun.

Lu Xuan watched the exciting battles for two consecutive days before heading to the competition site for his spiritual plants, spiritual wine, etc.

Compared with the last time, Lu Xuan received countless times more attention.

Especially during the spiritual plant competition, as soon as he entered the hall, even the Yuanying Zhenjun who were scoring the competition came over and greeted him warmly.

As for the other fellow disciples from the eight sword peaks who came to say hello, there was no telling how many there were.

They formed several circles around Lu Xuan, and did not leave him until the competition was about to start, following the warning of the elders of the Sword Palace.

Their enthusiasm was so high that Lu Xuan even maliciously speculated whether they came over to affect his state.

During the spirit brewing and talisman making competitions, although there were fewer Sword Sect disciples gathering around, Lu Xuan was still the focus of everyone, and his every move attracted the attention of other fellow disciples.

Soon, rounds of ratings came out.

Lu Xuan did not disappoint his fellow disciples who were paying attention to him. He was the best in spiritual brewing and got an A grade. The second place was A below, and the third place was downgraded to B. It can be said that he was far superior to others.

He was not much behind in spiritual plants and easily got an A+ score again, surpassing many Yuanying Zhenjuns from the eight major sword peaks. In such a large sword sect, there were only two people who got an A+ score with him.

As for talisman making, since he was only good at a few high-level sword talismans and had a serious imbalance in his performance, he still got an A-level score in the end. Although he was not as good as the talisman-making geniuses at Tianlu Jianfeng, it was already quite good.

It is worth mentioning that in the past thirty years, he held many exchanges on drawing sword talismans at Huanzhen Sword Peak, which raised the overall talisman-making level of Sword Peak to a higher level, thus achieving quite satisfactory results.

After rounds of training skills competitions ended, Lu Xuan came to the nine huge arenas that were hundreds of feet in radius to watch the fighting competition that was about to come to an end.

As time went on, the remaining Sword Sect disciples became stronger and the fights became more exciting, giving Lu Xuan a feast for the eyes.

"Unfortunately, I am not good at fighting."

"If we face him, we can only suppress him directly with those magical treasures."

He was standing below and had such a thought in his mind. Deep in the Sword Palace, there is another world.

Jian Huanzhen was waiting inside early, holding a cup of Huanzhen Sword Liquid in his hand, sipping it carefully, looking calm and confident of victory.

"Fellow Daoist, you're coming earlier and earlier. Why are you so impatiently waiting for Jian Tong to announce the rankings?"

An old man wearing coarse linen clothes and waving a palm-leaf fan appeared in the cave.

He looks extremely ordinary, but reveals a sense of returning to nature. He is the Chongxu Sword Master, who has the strongest cultivation among the nine sword masters and is only a step away from breaking through to the Divine Transformation stage.

"Old Chongxu, I came here early because I had nothing to do. Don't let your imagination run wild."

Jian Huanzhen said with a smile, his eyes occasionally sweeping across the entrance.

"Really? Don't try to hide your little thoughts. We all know it."

A bright light emerged, and then a deep green figure appeared. The figure swayed slightly and solidified into shape. It was the Master of Qingwei Sword.

"Haha, Qingwei, so what if you know? Huanzhen Jianfeng's ranking is no longer as stable as before."

"I have expectations in my heart, so naturally I come earlier."

Jian Huanzhen admitted it directly.

"In the last competition, Huanzhen Jianfeng rose two places. It was purely an accident. Naturally, he will fall back to his usual position today."

A middle-aged monk wearing a purple Taoist robe and with a dignified look appeared in front of the three people.

"I want to see what changes you, Zixiao, can bring to Zixiao Sword Peak after being away for so long to fight in the Cave Heaven."

Jian Huanzhen sneered. Huanzhen Sword Peak and Zixiao Sword Peak were at the same level and were competitors, so there was naturally some tension in their words.

After all nine sword masters arrived, a young child with a small sword in his hair appeared out of nowhere.

The child's face is delicate and cute, but his expression is extremely serious.

"Now, let me announce the rankings of the major sword peaks in this sword peak competition."

The tender voice of a young child rang in everyone's ears.

"First place, Chongxu Sword Peak."

The Sword Master Chongxu was waving a palm-leaf fan, his expression unchanged.

The same is true for the remaining eight people. Chongxu Jianfeng has monopolized the first place countless times. If he fails to get the first place one day, it will attract everyone's attention.

"Second place, Baigong Jianfeng."

"Third place..."

……

"Sixth place: Huanzhen Jianfeng."

Hearing that Huan Zhen Jian Feng had risen one place again, everyone was quite surprised, and they all turned to look at Jian Huan Zhen who couldn't stop smiling.

"Seventh place, Tianlu Sword Peak."

"Eighth place, Zixiao Sword Peak."

After hearing Jian Feng's name, Zixiao Sword Master looked normal, showing no emotion at all.

"Congratulations, we've moved up one rank."

The master of the Tianlu Sword congratulated with a smile.

"According to me, Zixiao, you have been traveling to the unknown cave for 10 to 20 years, and you have only moved up one rank. Why are you risking your life for this?"

Jian Haozhen chuckled.
