You practice immortality, I farm 2

Chapter 1196 The road is long and difficult
He did what he thought. He immediately selected an area and buried the Dongxuan sword tablets in the center. He also opened up a small pond and laid some useless sword treasures at the bottom. He also took out more than 30 spike fish from the cave.

After thinking about it, he moved the sword quenching house into his personal space.

"The requirements for nurturing a sword spirit land are too harsh. The most important thing is that it requires a sword treasure like the Nine Heavens Lightning Stele."

"These things can only be regarded as preliminary preparations."

He was very patient and decided to take it step by step.

Afterwards, he stayed in the portable space and inspected the many high-level spiritual plants planted everywhere one by one.

"There are more and more seventh-grade spiritual plants. There are already more than thirty of them."

"There are even quite a few at the eighth and ninth levels, as well as at the level of innate spiritual roots."

He swept his spiritual sense through the space on his body and had great expectations for these high-level spiritual plants.

"The Kongchan tree is about to start a new round of molting."

"There are also ancient burning lamp grass, leak-free spirit wood, and wonderful incense tree. They have been planted for many years and have gradually entered the mature stage."

Lu Xuan sighed in his heart.

He didn't want to use the Taiyi Qingling Liquid in his hand easily. The semi-god Mu Qinghu was in the stage of storing and transforming the spiritual energy of plants and trees. Therefore, he was not in a hurry to ripen these seventh-grade spiritual plants.

After carefully nurturing it, he returned to the cave.

Two months passed in a blink of an eye. One day, at the invitation of Li Xuanchen, he went to the Sword Palace as a guest.

The space inside the Sword Palace is boundless, and the cave where Li Xuanchen lives is located inside it.

"Junior Brother Lu, long time no see."

"Haha, hello, brother. Let's have a good drink today."

Lu Xuan smiled and handed over a few bottles of spiritual wine.

"Junior Brother Lu, you are too low-key. You have become so popular that it is hard to see you in the Sword Sect."

Li Xuanchen laughed.

"Brother, what do you mean? I have been cultivating spiritual plants in the cave, and I don't know what you mean by the big limelight."

Lu Xuan asked in confusion.

"The Sword Peak Competition more than two months ago!"

Li Xuanchen emphasized one sentence.

"Thanks to your Killing Prison Sword Grass, Huanzhen Sword Peak's ranking has risen one place again to fifth place."

"My junior brother has made great contributions to this!"

"I see……"

Lu Xuan looked calm and nodded slightly.

"Junior brother is too calm."

Li Xuanchen couldn't help but speak when he saw Lu Xuan's calm and indifferent look.

"It's been so long since we started cultivating the sword grass. There's no need to rest on our laurels."

Lu Xuan chuckled.

"Junior brother is quite open-minded, but it is hard for the fellow disciples from the other two sword peaks."

Li Xuanchen came closer with a mischievous smile on his face.

"I heard that the two sword masters of the Pure Yang Sword Peak and the Purple Sky Sword Peak, who were at the bottom of the rankings in this competition, put pressure on some of their Yuanying fellow disciples in the Sword Peaks in different ways, asking them to find ways to contribute to the Sword Sect in the new cycle so as to improve their usual points."

"Many Nascent Soul brothers are suffering terribly. Under pressure, they have to devote themselves to various aspects."

"My improved Killing Prison Sword Grass has made the Sword Sect even more powerful?"

Lu Xuan was surprised.

The two sat together, tasting spiritual fruits and spiritual wine while discussing the major and minor matters of the Sword Sect and the cultivation world.

“Junior Brother Lu, what’s the point of us going through so many hardships, even life-and-death tribulations, to break through to the Nascent Soul stage?”

“Even if you live a thousand years, you will eventually turn into dust.”

Li Xuanchen suddenly sighed and said with emotion.

"Senior brother, why did you say this?"

Lu Xuan looked puzzled and asked curiously.

"It's just a feeling I occasionally have, don't worry, Junior Brother."

"I wonder if you have heard of Senior Brother Wen Chenyu from Qingwei Sword Peak?" "I have heard of him, but I have never met him. I heard that Senior Brother Wen was promoted to the late Nascent Soul stage many years ago and has been practicing in seclusion in the Sword Sect's blessed land."

Lu Xuan said in a deep voice.

"That's right, but Senior Brother is not in seclusion to practice, but to prolong his life."

"That Senior Brother Wen..."

A bad thought came to Lu Xuan's mind, and his expression suddenly became much more serious.

"The limit is coming."

Li Xuanchen spoke word by word, with an indescribable loneliness and sadness in his voice.

"..."

"Pity."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan was silent for a moment and sighed.

“I can’t say whether it’s a pity or not. After all, Senior Brother Wen has lived for more than 1,300 years, which is not a small number among Yuanying cultivators.”

Li Xuanchen shook his head.

"Brother Wen, have you practiced longevity techniques or collected longevity elixirs?"

"Of course there is."

"After slowly entering the aging stage, Senior Brother Wen began to prepare to collect treasures to prolong life."

"The longevity technique that can be applied to the Nascent Soul stage is extremely rare in the cultivation world. It also requires early practice, and only after reaching a certain stage can it have a good effect."

“As for the longevity elixir, it is also rare and precious. Occasionally, you can only quench your thirst, but it cannot fundamentally solve the problem.”

As an elder of the Sword Palace, Li Xuanchen naturally knows much more about the Sword Sect cultivators than Lu Xuan.

"Has Senior Brother Wen tried any other methods?"

Lu Xuan looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Junior Brother Lu, you and I have a deep friendship, there is no need to be so cautious."

"Junior brother, are you talking about taking over another's body, or becoming a ghost cultivator?"

Li Xuanchen said gently.

Lu Xuan nodded lightly.

"Strictly speaking, these unorthodox methods are not tolerated by the Sword Sect, which claims to be an orthodox sect."

"Besides, it's not that easy to perform."

"For example, if you want to possess someone's body, you need to find a target with excellent aptitude and soul that is compatible with you. It will also hurt your natural harmony, so breaking through to the Jindan and Yuanying realms is many times more difficult than normal."

"There is also a method to transform into a ghost cultivator, which requires superior secret techniques and high-level treasures that can nourish the soul. Even if you succeed in transforming into a ghost cultivator, you can only linger on, neither human nor ghost."

Li Xuanchen said slowly.

"Brother, there is no need to be so pessimistic."

"Think of it from another angle. The fact that Senior Brother Wen was able to have a good ending in the Sword Sect has already surpassed countless Nascent Soul cultivators."

“You know, there are countless Nascent Soul cultivators who have died in various secret realms or at the hands of the enemy, and only a few have managed to die of old age.”

Lu Xuan spoke in a comforting voice.

"Junior brother, you are right. You are overthinking it."

Li Xuanchen nodded slightly.

"Brother, that kind of person is prone to developing inner demons."

Lu Xuan reminded.

"Haha, good, I will strengthen my determination to seek the truth later."

Li Xuanchen laughed heartily.

"By the way, according to the news from the Sword Palace Master, Senior Brother Wen may choose to go to the Heart Sword Lake to attain solitude in the next ten days or half a month. Junior Brother Lu, remember to come and see him off then."

"it is good."

Lu Xuan looked solemn and nodded slightly.

"Nascent Soul is just the beginning. The road ahead is long and arduous, and there is still so much to do."

He secretly warned himself in his heart.
