You Cultivate, I Farm

“Senior Sister, what do you mean by that?”

Ding Nian stood to the side and quietly asked.

“To bewilder three Foundation Establishment Perfect cultivators in an instant, and without them noticing the slightest, this Illusion Technique must indeed be extraordinary.”

“Moreover, during moments of extreme delight, to still retain a clear mind and even sense the oddity of the Licentious Spirit Seed—such cultivation must be from an Upper Class Technique of the Xuan Gate Sect.”

“Finally, it’s these few words left on the wooden plank.”

“Sword Qi three inches into the wood and lingering for a long time, such a strong murderous intent is extremely rare even among Sword Cultivators known for their killing prowess.”

“Both adept in Illusion Techniques and Sword Dao, and practicing the Xuan Gate Sect’s Technique— that person is likely a genius disciple from one of the Great Sects, perhaps dropping by the Happy Star Cave for fun once in a while.”

The Six-tailed Girl analyzed with conviction.

“Then, Senior Sister, what should we do? Should we not pursue and retrieve those three Licentious Spirit Seeds?”

“Let’s investigate secretly, without causing too much commotion.”

“However, that Xuan Gate disciple, since he took away those three peculiar Spirit Seeds and left such a message, is unlikely to expose the matter of replenishing Yang at the Chang Le Pavilion.”

“Of course, we should also be prepared for the possibility of a leak.”

Although taking Yang to supplement Yin is quite common during the bliss of union, if the cultivators who have visited the Chang Le Pavilion were to know that their Yang energy was used to nourish Spiritual Seeds, it could stir quite a stir.

…

The streets were bustling with excitement, and Lu Xuan strolled aimlessly.

Having left the Chang Le Pavilion, he was now in Sage Mode and did not seek any more Pleasure Houses to explore.

Moreover, having just acquired three Spirit Seeds from the Chang Le Pavilion, he worried that the other brothels might have similar setups.

If they heightened their guard, it would no longer be as simple to take Spirit Seeds as before, and visiting them again would be like walking into a trap.

Flush with Spirit Stones and three peculiar Spirit Seeds, Lu Xuan felt great contentment and entered the Thousand Spirit Restaurant he had passed earlier. He ordered a whole table of delicacies and indulged himself thoroughly.

“Ancient Jade Pavilion?”

High above, a colossal painted boat over ten miles long floated leisurely by.

The boat was extravagantly decorated, with numerous Array Patterns painted on its hull and a myriad of different-sized, sparkling Treasure Items adorning it. Many cultivators soared past on their Sword Light. ꞦÄŊȮ₿ÈꞨ

As soon as it appeared, it sparked a flurry of discussions among the cultivators below.

“The Ancient Jade Pavilion has shown up; it’s time to gamble on Ancient Stones.”

“I heard that last time someone got a Fifth Grade Spirit Ore from a Middle Rank Ancient Stone. He traded it for numerous cultivation resources, and his cultivation soared. He even spent half a month carefree at the Piano Pavilion.”

“That makes me so envious! As fellow cultivators, why don’t we have such luck?”

“If you had such luck, would you still be at your current cultivation level? You’d have acquired countless treasures by now and been on the fast track to success.”

“Don’t say that; I’ve bathed and burned incense for a month for this day, and I’ve even gotten an excellent fortune stick from a friend who practices Divination Technique. This time, I will surely find a rich seem of Treasure Items.”

The surrounding cultivators chattered away.

Lu Xuan’s interest was piqued.

“Treasure opening? I wonder how different it is from that Enlightening Group of mine.”

He suddenly became intrigued and turned to look at a short, plump old man nearby.

“Friend, I’ve just arrived here from other realms and entered the Happy Star Cave, with little understanding of the many facets here.”

“Who knows where this so-called Ancient Jade Pavilion’s Painted Boat in the sky comes from that it has drawn so many fellow cultivators to rush towards it?”

The short and fat old man, who had Foundation Establishment First-term stage cultivation, was just about to ride his Flying Sword onto the Painted Boat when someone stopped him, showing a trace of displeasure on his face.

However, a sweep of his Spiritual Sense revealed that the tall young man in front of him had a Foundation Establishment Late-term cultivation, and the displeasure instantly dissipated like smoke.

“Fellow daoist, please, the Ancient Jade Pavilion is a mysterious existence in the Happy Star cave, of unknown origin. It appears periodically, and inside it has its unique features.”

“Among them, the practice of betting on stones is the most popular.”

“What is betting on stones?”

Lu Xuan asked curiously.

“It is said that the forces behind the Ancient Jade Pavilion obtain numerous Ancient Stones from Strange Realms or perilous Star Caves, varying in size, capable of blocking the Spiritual Sense of Cultivators. Upon purchasing the stones with Spirit Stones, there is a chance that various Treasure Items, and even Magical Treasure Fragments, Cultivation Techniques, and Divine Skills might be unearthed from within.”

Upon saying this, the short and fat old man’s eyes revealed a strong envy.

“Is there such a good thing? Could those Ancient Stones possibly be fakes made by the forces behind the Ancient Jade Pavilion?”

Lu Xuan questioned.

“At first, many cultivators were skeptical, but over time, as more and more cultivators unearthed treasures from the Ancient Stones, those suspicions evaporated on their own.”

“A friend of mine spent a thousand Spirit Stones to open a Middle Rank Ancient Stone and unearthed a Fourth-grade Sword Embryo, which he sold on the spot for more than ten thousand Spirit Stones.”

The old man clearly had a great deal of trust in the Ancient Jade Pavilion, and upon hearing Lu Xuan’s skepticism, he promptly explained.

“I also have a friend who, two years ago…”

His words resonated with the surrounding cultivators, who began to share their own experiences and stories about the Ancient Jade Pavilion.

“It seems that the Ancient Jade Pavilion does not engage in fakes, as a considerable number of cultivators have managed to unearth treasures from within.”

“However, this whole setup seems a bit familiar, eh? Spend Spirit Stones to buy the Ancient Stone, then wait for the prize draw, then use the few cases of treasures being found to attract more and more cultivators to buy the stones.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

“May I ask what the fellow daoist means by Middle Rank Ancient Stones?”

Changing his train of thought, he asked the old man.

“There are three grades of Ancient Stones within the Ancient Jade Pavilion: Low Rank, Middle Rank, and High Rank. Low Rank Ancient Stones require the fewest Spirit Stones, just five hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones to attempt opening. Middle Rank stones require two thousand Spirit Stones, and High Rank ones demand twenty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.”

“However, it is said that the treasures found within are the most abundant.”

“I once saved up a considerable amount of Spirit Stones to open High Rank Ancient Stones twice, but once I got nothing, and another time I got a Fourth-grade Spirit Ore, which was somewhat regrettable,” the old man said, disappointment evident in his eyes as he sighed softly.

“That Ancient Jade Pavilion has something about it, if you can’t unearth treasures from the stone, it’s just because your own fortune isn’t deep enough. Otherwise, if other cultivators can get something, why can’t you?”

Seeing his demeanor, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but reflect on this inwardly.

“I wonder if there’s a possibility of there being Spiritual Seeds hidden in those Ancient Stones? If planted, and if I could detect the presence of the seeds within, wouldn’t I be guaranteed a sure win?”

Lu Xuan suddenly considered such a possibility.

His ability was nearly equivalent to cause and effect, to rules; as long as he planted the Spiritual Seeds, he could perceive their detailed information.

The species, origin, unique characteristics, cultivation methods, and so forth.

If those so-called Ancient Stones harbored Spiritual Seeds that he could touch firsthand, then for him, the Ancient Stones that blocked Spiritual Sense would seem as if they lay bare before him.

“Although I’m not interested in gambling addiction, if it’s a sure win, then it wouldn’t really be gambling.”

He rose on his Sword Light, following a crowd of cultivators into the Painted Boat in the sky.
