I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates

Hearing that the Thunder Behemoth was safe and sound, Lu Xuan finally let go of the anxiety he was holding onto.

"That chubby fellow has been mingling on the edge of the Thunder Sea for many years and naturally has something to rely on. There's no need to worry too much,"

he silently told himself.

The Thunder Beast was not like ordinary Fourth Grade Demon Beasts. Skilled in Thunder Method, mastering the Thunder Escape Secret Technique, and living within the Thunder Sea, it held a home-field advantage. Ordinary Foundation Establishment Mid and Late-term cultivators were simply no match for it.

Moreover, with the backing of such a large tribe behind it, even if several Golden Core Real People were to attack, they would have to weigh their options carefully.

"According to the Foundation Establishment Cultivators who escaped, the Demon Beast that intervened to rescue its companion was powerful. It's very likely a Strange Species of Thunder Behemoth,"

the gentle female cultivator said with a smile.

"A Strange Species of Thunder Behemoth?"

The people present perked up at the news, their interest piqued.

"If it can be captured, it could be tamed as a mount, and that would be a great boost,"

"Or we could hunt it directly; its carcass is worth far more than an Equal Rank Monster Beast."

"Fellow cultivator speaks wisely."

Seeing the expressions of the cultivators present, Lu Xuan's brow imperceptibly furrowed.

Although the Thunder Behemoth Tribe had quite a few Fifth Grade Strange Demon Beasts and was guarded by the Green Horn Thunder Son, if a large number of Jindan Cultivators were attracted, there was still a possibility of significant casualties.

"A Strange Species of Thunder Behemoth? Could there be more than one? If there are over ten at Level Five, or even more powerful ones, then the risk might outweigh the reward,"

he suddenly spoke up, his words carrying a hint of warning.

"Haha, Friend Lu is still as cautious as ever."

"No matter how many there are, those Fifth Grade Strange Thunder Behemoths won't outnumber the Jindan Cultivators from Thunder Fire Asterism Cave, not to mention the Golden Core Real People from the entire Heavenly Star Cave and even inside the Liyang Region,"

a gloomy-looking middle-aged cultivator replied with a chuckle.

"Lu Mou simply has the habit of preparing for the worst-case scenario,"

Lu Xuan said nonchalantly, not taking offense.

The topic was promptly dropped, and everyone continued to exchange their experiences of cultivation.

Once the small gathering was over, Lu Xuan bid farewell to Qi Wuheng and swiftly returned to his Cave Abode on his Flying Sword.

"Even though the Green Horn Thunder Son, our senior, is approaching his end, a dying camel is still bigger than a horse. After all, it's a Seventh Grade Ancient Strange Beast, and ordinary Jindan Cultivators don't have too much to worry about."

"Besides, that territory is extremely hidden, and without a Thunder Behemoth to lead the way, it would be very difficult to enter."

Lu Xuan watched the enthusiastically approaching Thunder Dragon Behemoth and thought to himself.

Cultivators entering the Thunder Sea were innumerable, thus incidents of being besieged were quite common. It was presumed that the Thunder Behemoth Tribe was already accustomed to it, so Lu Xuan didn't take it too seriously.

His focus was on Cultivating Spiritual Plants, although he would occasionally take the initiative to inquire about the latest news from the Thunder Sea.

However, the very thing he was most worried about still happened.

Half a month later, while Lu Xuan was checking the status of the Spirit Plants, suddenly, an uninvited guest arrived at his Cave Abode.

"Fellow Ye, what a rare visit, please come in quickly!"

Lu Xuan opened the Thousand Barrier Xuan Crystal Array and welcomed a silver-haired female cultivator into his Cave Abode.

The female cultivator had a sharp demeanor, her silver hair shimmered with faint glimmers of lightning; it was Ye Xuanyin, with whom he had several encounters.

Her Cave Abode was not far from Lu Xuan's. She had come to congratulate him when he advanced to Core Formation and had also entered the Black Water Star Cave together to celebrate the Star Envoy's birthday.

"Friend Lu, I've come today because I have matters to discuss with you,"

Ye Xuanyin got straight to the point, revealing her purpose.

"Please speak, Fellow Ye,"

Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

"During our last meeting at Qi Wuheng Star Envoy's Cave Abode, someone mentioned a Strange Species of Thunder Behemoth. Does Friend Lu still remember?"

Ye Xuanyin asked softly.

"I have some impression, but Lu Mou is not particularly interested in those so-called Strange Thunder Behemoths, and I have not explored the Thunder Sea."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan's heart sank.

"Subsequently, a cultivator ventured deep into it, employing a secret technique, and followed a Thunder Behemoth to their territory."

"However, the territory was riddled with natural Thunder Law Prohibitions, so that cultivator didn't dare to venture too deep."

"Nevertheless, some discoveries were made. Several Fifth Grade Strange Thunder Behemoths emerged from the territory, each with formidable strength."

"Realizing something was amiss, that person retreated immediately."

"Several Fifth Grade Thunder Behemoths?! That cultivator is lucky to have kept his life."

A look of surprise appeared on Lu Xuan's face, as if he was shocked by the number of Fifth Grade Strange Thunder Behemoths.

"According to Ye Xuanyin, the Green Horn Thunder Son did not show itself. It's unclear whether it's sleeping or simply couldn't be bothered with a Jindan Cultivator."

He muttered in his heart.

"Several Fifth Grade Strange Thunder Behemoths, that's a significant amount of cultivation resources. And with such a natural forbidden land, it is very likely to contain High Rank Thunder Attribute Sky Materials and Earth Treasures."

"There is no lack of Jindan Cultivators interested in exploring it, and it may even attract the attention of Primordial Infant True Monarchs."

"Would Friend Lu be interested in exploring the Thunder Behemoth's Secret Realm together?"

Ye Xuanyin asked out loud.

"I have already explored it no less than ten times."

Lu Xuan criticized inwardly, yet appeared composed on the surface.

"Lu Mou must consider it. Once I have decided, if I wish to join Fellow Ye in exploration, I hope you all won't disdain my humble abilities."

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

"All right, it's for you to decide,"

"As for the worry you mentioned, that certainly won't happen. Who would scorn a Golden Core True Person?"

"Besides, you are skilled in the Path of Spiritual Plants. If there are related treasures in the Secret Realm, we will rely greatly on you,"

Ye Xuanyin hastily added.

She left behind a Communication Talisman and took her leave.

After watching her leave, Lu Xuan returned to his abode with an uncertain expression.

"If there's more than one Jindan True Person coveting the Thunder Behemoth Territory, then the situation is somewhat bad."

He sighed lightly and made up his mind.

"I must inform the Green Horn Thunder Son to be on alert."

Having gained much from the Green Horn Thunder Son and the Thunder Behemoth Tribe, and having built a deep bond with the two Thunder Behemoths that came out begging, he naturally could not ignore the imminent danger they faced.

He left the Cave Abode immediately and used the Thunder Escape Secret Technique from "Divine Cloud True Law" to enter the Thunder Sea.

As he passed through the channel, the usually ever-present fat Thunder Behemoth guarding the entrance was nowhere to be seen, which made Lu Xuan slightly uncomfortable.

He activated his Clear Dragonfly Feather Robe to conceal his presence and, after confirming that there was nothing abnormal around him, he mimicked the low rumble of thunder.

After a good while, the usual quickly appearing Strange Thunder Behemoth was nowhere to be seen.

"Is there an accident, or have they stopped trusting me as before?"

Lu Xuan guessed in his heart.

Just as he was about to lose patience, a familiar low growl sounded next to his ear.

"It's here!"

Lu Xuan couldn't help but smile.

A moment later, a giant beast with silver-white sharp horns slowly emerged from the lightning flashes.

It was the Strange Thunder Behemoth that Lu Xuan had fed multiple times, the one that had led him into the Thunder Behemoth Tribe's Secret Realm to collect Black-Green Thunder Liquid, and also brought him to the Thunder Behemoth Territory when he was trapped in a thunderstorm.

Upon seeing Lu Xuan, a hint of hesitation flashed in the eyes of the Strange Thunder Behemoth, then it disappeared as it pounced towards Lu Xuan.
