I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 1272: Chapter 1269: The Origin of the Blessed Land

The old site of the Sky Sword Sect is rife with many demons, including a mid-level Nascent Soul demon. However, under the indiscriminate attack of Lu Xuan’s Divine Xiao Thunder Method, all demons, including the mid-level one, were eradicated.

“It’s a pity that there are only a few weird spiritual plants left in the Underworld Spirit Field, so much flesh and blood wasted.”

He collected some rare materials and sighed as he looked at the mountains of flesh and blood.

“The demons that forced the Sky Sword Sect to relocate are now gone, but it’s nothing extraordinary.”

Lu Xuan gently shook his head and strolled through the old site of the Sky Sword Sect, seeking out the scenes buried deep in his memory.

“This should be where my cave abode was located. I remember planting countless strange spirit plants inside, which greatly accelerated my cultivation.”

“The Thousand Dragon Lake used to teem with hundreds or thousands of flood dragons, now there’s none left. I wonder if those I was responsible for had a good end.”

“And those Spirit Cranes that didn’t want to breed, the spirit beasts in the forbidden area…”

“The once-familiar Spiritual Plant Hall is now reduced to ruins.”

Walking past one familiar scene after another, Lu Xuan sighed repeatedly.

“Back then, the Sky Sword Sect had three Blessed Lands. Even if the cultivation resources inside were taken away or occupied by demons and cultivators, the Blessed Lands themselves were rare treasures.”

He felt emotional and planned to refine the Blessed Land, obtaining its core essence to cultivate the Ninth Grade Xuanhuang Tree.

Entering the ancient teleportation array, he found the formations had long been in disrepair. Fortunately, Lu Xuan had absorbed multiple “Star River Formation Chart” experience packages and mastered the art of formations. Before coming, he had also meticulously consulted fellow Nascent Soul members of the Sky Sword Sect, quickly restoring the teleportation array.

“Even if I plunge into spatial turbulence, there are spatial divine abilities and treasure items like Inch Book and Universe in Sleeve to retreat safely.”

He inserted dozens of middle-grade spirit stones, activated the formation, and countless array patterns lit up, soon entering a chaotic space.

“Langyue Blessed Land… the Demonic Vine and Phoenix Wood were obtained from here.”

“The cultivation resources inside were thoroughly plundered, and there are traces of cultivators sneaking in, but fortunately, they were not detected by the invading demons.”

Lu Xuan’s divine sense scanned through, his mana surged out, and the Blessed Land silently crumbled wherever it passed.

Half a month later, he floated in the sky, the Blessed Land below completely shattered, and the intertwined Xuanhuang spiritual energy wound around his fingertips.

“So, this is the core essence spiritual energy of the Blessed Land?”

“Without it, the Blessed Land cannot function properly and gradually degrades to ordinary spirit land.”

“Condensing this core essence spiritual energy ensures the growth of the Ninth Grade Xuanhuang Tree for a long time.”

Lu Xuan was satisfied and carefully stored the core essence spiritual energy in the Inch Book.

The other two Blessed Lands were not so fortunate; one couldn’t be found, and the other was already shattered and merged into the void.

“Since I returned, I might as well take a stroll and see if I can find old acquaintances or their descendants.”

Lu Xuan thought as he returned to the old site of the Sky Sword Sect.

Though the hope was slim, effort mattered; finding someone would settle past karma.

Soon, he arrived at Linyang Market, where he lived during his Qi Cultivation period.

“The place where dreams began, now deserted and completely turned to ruins.”

The old site of the Sky Sword Sect still had demons occupying it, but Linyang Market had completely turned into wilderness, covered by eerie trees, showing no trace of cultivators.

“Three thousand miles nearby, there’s a large city called Demon Suppression City. Other cities are ten thousand miles away; I’ll try going there last.”

Lu Xuan didn’t stay long, transformed into silver lightning, and quickly headed towards Demon Suppression City.

“The city spans thousands of miles, with the city lord rumored to be an early Nascent Soul True Monarch. There are no less than a hundred Jindan cultivators inside; even in the Central Continent, it counts as a big city.”

Lu Xuan paused outside Demon Suppression City, curiously observing the scene inside.

Perhaps due to long-term dealings with demons, the city had a seventh-grade formation in place. Cultivators entering and exiting the city needed to undergo formation checks to confirm eligibility for entry and exit.

“Entering the Demon Suppression City quietly is difficult; brute force, though easy, could hurt harmony. Better to enter normally.”

Thinking this, Lu Xuan no longer concealed his aura, and a shocking pressure swept out.

“Lu Xuan of the Dongxuan Sword Sect, here to meet Senior Dongji.”

As soon as he spoke, a streak of light quickly flew over, and a long-bearded cultivator with a calm demeanor appeared.

“So it is Daoist Lu of the Dongxuan Sword Sect, my apologies for not welcoming you promptly. Please forgive me.”

The visitor was Senior Dongji, who managed Demon Suppression City. The moment he sensed Lu Xuan’s aura, he came immediately, showing respect to Lu Xuan and the Dongxuan Sword Sect behind him.

“Senior is too kind.”

Lu Xuan smiled and returned the greeting.

The two passed through the formation, entering the central area of the city.

“The conditions in Demon Suppression City are simple, Daoist Lu, please forgive.”

After charming servants served spiritual fruits and tea, Senior Dongji lightly stroked his long beard and smiled.

“Daoist is too modest, you and many cultivators in Demon Suppression City resist the outside demons together, naturally disregarding luxury.”

Lu Xuan said solemnly.

Regardless of purpose, any Nascent Soul cultivator willing to stay in a danger-ridden, demon-infested East Wasteland deserves his admiration.

“May I ask what important matter brings Daoist Lu to the East Wasteland?”

After chatting for a while, Senior Dongji asked curiously.

“Senior may not know, I once cultivated in the East Wasteland for nearly a hundred years. This time, I came by to revisit my old cultivation ground and see if I could find old acquaintances.”

“Dongxuan Sword Sect… Daoist Lu might be a former Sky Sword Sect disciple?”

Lu Xuan gently nodded: “Senior is knowledgeable; I indeed was a disciple of the Sky Sword Sect, a branch of the Sword Sect.”

“That explains it. The decision of the Sky Sword Sect to leave the East Wasteland back then was wise.”

“The first wave of demon invasion turned the entire East Wasteland into a living hell. Whether low-rank cultivators, Jindan True Real People, or Nascent Soul True Monarchs, more than half perished.”

“With several invasions, only one-tenth survived. It took two hundred years to recover some vitality.”

Senior Dongji sighed.

When the upper echelons of the Sky Sword Sect decided to relocate to the Dongxuan Sword Sect headquarters, it caused a huge stir in the East Wasteland. However, in the long run, it was a wise decision. Both the senior members entering the Dongxuan Realm and the low-rank disciples who went to other areas of the Cloud Void Domain had far higher survival rates compared to East Wasteland cultivators.

“Right or wrong matters not anymore; the sect’s decisions were not something a mere inner sect disciple like myself could decide then.”

“I came here simply to revisit my old cultivation grounds and see if I can find old acquaintances or their descendants.”

Lu Xuan reiterated his purpose, trying to dispel the Nascent Soul True Monarch before him’s doubts.

“Haha, I’ve been in this area for over a hundred years. If you need anything, Daoist Lu, feel free to ask.”

Senior Dongji completely reassured, laughed heartily.
