Outside the small courtyard.

Two Middle-Stage Qi Practitioners looked up at the formation covering the whole courtyard, discussing quietly.

“The owner of this courtyard is too mysterious, constantly maintaining a second-grade defense formation, wasting so many spirit stones for nothing.”

“I don’t know what his background is, he’s like a dragon whose head is seen but not the tail, never having seen his figure.”

“Hey, do you think it’s possible the owner of the courtyard is dead in some secret land, hence no cultivator is going in or out?”

“If that’s the case…”

A cultivator raised his eyebrows at his companion, revealing a profound look.

“Be careful what you say! It’s best not to have such thoughts!”

“This is under the jurisdiction of the Sky Sword Sect, perhaps the house represents a disciple of the Sky Sword Sect. If you inadvertently anger him, it could very well cost your life.”

His companion looked nervously around and advised him.

Just as the two were about to leave, suddenly, a clear voice came from behind them.

“Two fellow Daoists, stopping in front of my courtyard, could it be you are waiting for me?”

The two were startled and turned their heads to see a refined cultivator smiling at them.

What shocked the two even more was that this young man was wearing a standard Daoist robe of the outer sect disciples of the Sky Sword Sect.

“Please don’t misunderstand, fellow Daoist. Both of us live not far from your courtyard. We just happened to pass by here and saw you come back.”

One of them explained to Lu Xuan somewhat flustered.

“Is that so? Looking at both of you, I thought you were plotting against the items in my courtyard!”

Lu Xuan looked at the two, his tone a mix of teasing and seriousness.

“Absolutely not!”

The cultivator firmly replied.

“The two of us come from a regular background, and the reason we stay in Sword Gate Town is to serve the Sky Sword Sect disciples from our family.”

“My young master is currently a Qi Cultivation Perfection cultivator, and perhaps he might even be acquainted with you.”

“I see, it seems I was overthinking.”

Lu Xuan replied with a casual smile.

“This place is my foothold in Sword Gate Town. Since I’m not fond of strangers, I set up this array for protection.”

“I’m preparing to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, so I’m rarely here.”

Lu Xuan added indifferently, giving the two cultivators a credible reason that also conveyed a threatening undertone.

“We wish fellow Daoist a swift breakthrough to Foundation Establishment!”

Both of them bowed their heads and wished.

“If Senior does not mind, the two of us can help look after the place on days when Senior is away, so as to prevent it from being sullied by those unworthy people.”

Hearing that Lu Xuan was preparing to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, the two quietly changed their way of address and even volunteered to help Lu Xuan take care of the courtyard.

“Hmm, in that case, I’ll have to trouble the two of you. If the courtyard remains normal, I promise you both a generous reward.”

Lu Xuan promised the two Middle-Stage Qi Practitioners a substantial reward. He took a long look at them, as if to imprint their faces deep in his heart.

Then, he unlocked the array and entered the courtyard.

After Lu Xuan’s figure completely disappeared, the two nervous persons simultaneously raised their heads, wiping the fine cold sweat on their foreheads, and quickly left after exchanging glances.

“Why did you promise to look after the courtyard for that Sky Sword Sect Disciple?”

Walking a bit further away, one of them voiced out a bit disgruntled.

“Didn’t you see that he was getting suspicious? To dispel his doubts, we had to resort to this measure.”

“We must be more careful from now on. If a cultivator broke the formation and entered the courtyard, we would be in big trouble.”

“It’s lucky we live nearby.”

“It’s because of how close we live that this mess arrived today!”

Lu Xuan entered the small courtyard, where everything was arranged as usual. There weren’t any suspicious traces around the formation either.

“When the conditions are right in the future, I need to upgrade the protection around the Spirit Field.”

“Even though the courtyard is located in Sword Gate Town, not far from Sky Sword Sect, there are very few Demon Envoys or Evil Cultivators around. The safety here is much higher than the Linyang Market.”

“However, I shouldn’t let my guard down. The plants in the Spirit Field are third-grade Ghost Faced Stone Mushrooms and Thorn Bones, as well as the fourth-grade Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree. If I slip up and cause a loss, there will not be enough time to cry over it.”

He thought to himself.

Upon going to the Spirit Field, there came gusts of cold wind, with over a dozen Resentful Spirits wandering freely in the air.

The five Ghost Faced Stone Mushrooms growing below were in good condition. The ghost faces on their surfaces seem to be smiling weirdly when observed closely, indicating they have been well-fed all this time.

“The speed at which they absorb Yin Soul Resentment is getting faster and faster. The fifty resentful spirits left last time have almost been consumed entirely!”

Lu Xuan sighed, taking out his second-grade Resentful Soul Bell Magical Tool and releasing another fifty Resentful Spirits.

“A few more of these and all that will be left in this Resentful Soul Bell will be the ‘bell’. I’ll need to find a way to get new Resentful Spirits.”

He came to the Thorn Bone. After a period of absence, more and more sharp bones have grown on its slender, pale body. They were deeply embedded in the third-grade Barbarian Armored Bull Skeleton, absorbing the marrow inside.

“It’s not good to keep sucking on the same skeleton either. I’ll bring you something different to try today.”

Lu Xuan threw down a Purple Cloud Leopard Skeleton and another second-grade demon beast skeleton down next to the Thorn Bone.

After throwing down the skeletons, he moved over to the bizarre little tree covered with pupils.

On the tree body, the Demon Beast eyeballs left last time had lost all vitality, turning a dull gray. A slight touch from Lu Xuan caused them to crumble into countless small particles, falling down.

A semi-transparent tentacle reluctantly withdrew from the gray eyeballs and retracted into an evil eye pupil that was half open.

After absorbing the essence of the Demon Beast eyeballs, that eye had opened halfway, with a faint red pupil rolling inside. Looking at it too long would cause a slight dizziness.

Lu Xuan took out a pair of Purple Cloud Leopard Eyes and slowly brought them in front of the Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree.

Feeling the approach of fresh food, a couple of eyeballs that were closest sprang open and rapid, lizard-tongue-like tentacles shot out.

Finally, the two eyeballs were hooked away by the fastest transparent tentacles and nailed to their pupils, motionless.

The remaining pupils that couldn’t snatch the Purple Cloud Leopard eyes slowly closed. Lu Xuan could feel their unwillingness.

“A pair of Purple Cloud Leopard eyes can’t fully satiate this Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree. I need to find a way to get more and higher-rank demon beast eyeballs.”

He mused to himself. The stands at Qingshi Square rarely had fresh Demon Beast eyeballs. He decided to proactively search for this kind of thing.

“If I want to get more fresh Demon Beast eyeballs, I need to go on adventures, hunt more Demon Beasts and preserve the eyeballs properly to feed the Hundred Pupils’ Bizarre Tree promptly.”

“However, go on an adventure? That’s impossible, I will never take risks in my lifetime. I don’t cultivate, I merely plant Spirit Plants to sustain my cultivation..”
