I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Chapter 499: Chapter 497: This Study is Not That Study_1

After making the decision, the two parted ways, each choosing a direction.

“Friend, please show me your invitation token.”

Lu Xuan arrived at the entrance, a warm smile spread across the face of the Foundation Establishment First-term Stage Cultivated Stage who had come to greet him.

Once Lu Xuan presented his Gilded Invitation, there was no further obstruction, allowing Lu Xuan to enter the Duobao Tower.

The inside of the Duobao Tower was much larger than what could be seen from the outside, much like a small city. With constant hustle and bustle, it was exceedingly lively.

Presumably there were a few hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators scheduled to participate in the Heavenly Abyss Treasure Meeting. Occasionally, one or two cultivators would be spotted, their energy deep and dense, like a chasm, unfathomable. Even if they weren’t Golden Core Real People, their presence wouldn’t be far from that.

“Senior, have you just entered the building?”

A glamorous female cultivator with a captivating figure approached, her smile bewitching. She was barely dressed, exposing a large amount of her snow-white skin. luring eyes towards her.

“Yes.”

Lu Xuan responded with a slight nod.

“The Treasure Meeting has not yet started. Senior can choose a room to rest for a while, or you can wander around the Duobao Tower to enjoy the specialties of the building.”

“Having travelled a long distance, I think I’ll rest first.”

Although Lu Xuan was curious about the “specialties” mentioned by the female cultivator, as he had just arrived and was unfamiliar with everything, out of caution, he decided to rest for a while.

Observing his surroundings, he followed the lead of others and landed on a dark, round wooden platform.

With a thought, the platform gradually rose, bringing him to an empty, elegant room.

“There are exquisite arrangements everywhere in the Duobao Tower. It is indeed built by the Qianji Door, the top puppet master in the Cultivation World.”

“Compared to this, my Grass Puppet, which also came from the Qianji Door, may seem inferior.”

Lu Xuan said pensively.

The Grass Puppet was a second-hand puppet he had bought at a stall when he was still a Small Loose Repair practicing Qi cultivation during his early years. According to the merchant, it was from the Qianji Door, making it of the same origin as the high-grade Duobao Tower.

“However, after being nourished for a long time with the Grass Spirit Elixir and the Nascent Soul Grass Orb, the Grass Puppet has grown considerably.”

With this thought, he pushed open the room door.

“Greetings, Senior.”

As soon as he entered the room, a peculiar-looking young girl cautiously emerged from the shadows.

The girl had skin as white as snow, delicate features, head full of silver-white hair hanging down to her waist, and an innocent and pure look in her eyes as if she were a little rabbit.

What caught Lu Xuan’s attention even more was that a fluffy white tail extended from her waist, and its thick fur looked extremely fluffy.

Waving gently in the air, it was particularly eye-catching.

Lu Xuan was unconsciously attracted by the fluffy white tail, staring blankly, lost in thought.

It was only when the girl got closer, and a fresh fragrance wafted out from her that Lu Xuan came back to his senses, looked at her again with several questions in his mind.

“How did such a species form? Is it mixed blood from a human and a demon? Or, similar to the transplantation experiment done by the Old Fox in the forbidden area? Or maybe formed due to special environmental changes?”

Upon seeing the girl, Lu Xuan, who had a wealth of experience in taming Spirit Beasts, immediately fell into deep thoughts.

The fluff-tailed girl felt a bit uncomfortable under his burning gaze but was too shy to object, so she stood on the spot, her fluffy tail twitching uneasily.

“Senior, can I be of any assistance to you?”

She asked softly.

“I’m sorry for being impolite earlier, but the sight of you reminded me of some related research so I got lost in thought.”

A hint of apology could be seen on Lu Xuan’s face.

“If the senior thinks… this servant is good, you can buy me out from the building and study me freely.”

The girl spoke softly, her head hung low.

Lu Xuan frowned, knowing the girl had misunderstood the meaning of his ‘research’, he explained helplessly.

“You misunderstood, my research means dissecting the body, extracting blood, transplanting limbs and heads etc., which I’m guessing you wouldn’t comply with.”

Hearing this, the girl couldn’t help but shudder, a trace of fear could be seen in her eyes as she looked at Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan paid no mind and asked the girl.

“I’m not very familiar with this Heavenly Abyss Treasure Meeting and the Duobao Tower. Could you explain it to me in detail?”

“Yes, Senior.”

The fluff-tailed girl hurried to respond, fearing Lu Xuan might get upset and actually experiment on her.

“The Treasure Meeting will not officially begin until tomorrow due to the varying distances that the cultivators with invitations have to travel or being held up by other matters.”

“During this period, the senior can explore the Bao Building. The Bao Building is divided into three parts. The bottom two parts are used to host the Treasure Meeting, one is public and the other private.”

“In the public part, the displayed treasures must have detailed information about their rank, unique features, effects, etc.”

“In the private part, there is no such requirement, it holds all sorts of strange and unknown treasures. You might get a great opportunity to skyrocket, or you might get something useless and waste Spirit Stone.”

“It all depends on the senior’s discernment and luck.”

“The top part of the Duobao Tower belongs to the powers within it, where you can buy a large amount of relatively common high-grade treasures, and also experience dual cultivation techniques of sects like the Unity Sect.”

As she spoke, the girl slightly looked up, her eyes brimming with moisture, glanced at Lu Xuan then immediately dropped her lids down.

“That would be the Gold Spending Cave and Gentle Township.”

Lu Xuan commented briefly.

Through the girl, he came to know that every room had a similar existence to her. The cultivators inside could change freely or be bought out from the Duobao Tower, thereby having complete control.

After understanding some information about the Treasure Meeting, Lu Xuan left the girl in the room and came to the spacious streets within the tower.

“Hmm, this is a late-stage Foundation Establishment Evil Cultivator?”

A gaunt old man with a green-black face walked past him. Yin Qi was wrapped around the old man’s neck, and a vaguely visible green-black Infant Ghost could be seen clinging tightly to it.

“Another one.”

A tall and thin middle-aged cultivator walked towards him, his arms hanging loosely down. His arms were made up of numerous slippery tentacles entwined together, making his robe uneven and extremely eerie.

Lu Xuan couldn’t help marveling. The number of Evil Cultivators he saw on the streets of the Duobao Tower was more than he had seen in his entire life.

Suddenly, a thought flashed in his mind, making him stop in his tracks and fill with excitement.

“So many Evil Cultivators, openly appearing inside the Duobao Tower, means they can freely trade and sell all kinds of treasures required by the Evil Cultivators.”

“They are not subject to any restrictions of the righteous path.”

“So, does this mean, the rewards I got from various Weird Spiritual Plants finally have somewhere to be used?”

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

The rewards from the mature Weird Spiritual Plants and the light clusters were somewhat related to the Underworld, and he couldn’t handle it in the Sect or Sword Gate Town, for fear of attracting attention.

But those concerns were not an issue at all in the Duobao Tower, with the free activities and numerous Evil Cultivators, he could freely sell the Saint Baby Pill, Vitality Pill etc., to obtain the treasures he desired.
