Chapter 252: Are Opportunities Not Delivered?
"It is indeed a bit regrettable. I thought even if we couldn't kill the Heart Devil alone, we could escape unharmed. I didn't expect that unexpected incident."
A cultivator surnamed Kong shook his head and echoed.
"However, on the path of cultivation, it's all about the word 'struggle.' Struggle against heaven, earth, and people. Struggle for cultivation, struggle for opportunities, and thus advance further."
"If you don't struggle, opportunities and treasures will be taken away by other cultivators, and the gap between each other will gradually widen."
"Especially for people like us without a significant background or extraordinary talent, missing an opportunity is not an option."
"Fall behind once, and it's hard to catch up with others."
The cultivator surnamed Kong sighed with emotion.
Lu Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Senior brother's words are indeed correct, but not entirely."
Opportunities do need to be sought after, but it must be done while ensuring one's own safety. If one risks their life to compete for opportunities, like the senior brother who perished earlier, then what else can they use to compete?
"Junior brother, everyone understands this principle, but implementing it is another matter."
"I ask you, in this world, are there any opportunities that can be obtained without taking any risks?"
Lu Xuan opened his mouth and then seemed to think of something, falling silent.
He initially wanted to say that cultivating spirit plants wouldn't involve any risks, but at the last moment, he felt it was too absolute.
Well, there might be a slight risk involved.
For example, the Enchanting Spirit Peache that seduced him, the hundred-eyed mysterious wood that couldn't be looked at directly, and the holy infant fruit tree he used for fishing...
Seeing Lu Xuan like this, the cultivator surnamed Kong thought he had convinced him.
"So, opportunities still need to be fought for."
"In the recent operation against the Heart Devil, more than thirty inner disciples participated, and only one accidentally died. The others suffered minor injuries at most, and three disciples even obtained the Heart Devil refined by the Nascent Soul demon head. Compared to the opportunities gained, the risks are negligible."
"Oh, by the way, talking about the Heart Devil, I wonder how the senior brothers who obtained it will handle it?"
"After all, it's a sinister and malicious thing. If mishandled, it might bring disaster."
Lu Xuan changed the topic, curious.
"Naturally, it will be handled by the three inner disciples who hunted the Heart Devil. However, keeping such evil things is indeed troublesome."
"So, if you're not sure you can store it properly, you can hand it over to the sect and exchange it for spirit stones, sword imprints, and the like."
The cultivator surnamed Kong replied.
"I see."
Lu Xuan used his two fingers like scissors, cutting off a small section of the gray vine. He gave the Demon Ghost Vine a small lesson.
After all, it could grow several roots just by staying with the Enchanting Spirit Peache for a while.
Back in his room, he sat quietly on a cushion, silently contemplating the events of the day.
He and the cultivator surnamed Kong couldn't convince each other. Perhaps in the eyes of the cultivator surnamed Kong, Lu Xuan was too cautious and lacked any sharpness.
Lu Xuan didn't care about his opinion.
What set him apart from others was that he didn't need to venture outside, risking his life to compete for opportunities.
His opportunities were all here on this mountain peak.
In the Firefly Grass that could enhance cultivation, in the third-grade Wind Thunder Sword Grass that had undergone a mutation, and even in the fourth-grade Demon Insect Vine, Spirit Pine, and Earth Fire Heart Lotus. Not to mention the fifth-grade Demon Ghost Vine, and the sixth-grade ancient peculiar wood, the Phoenix Wood.
This was why, even after reaching the Foundation Establishment realm, he almost never went out to explore opportunities.
"Well, mainly because I'm a bit weak."
"When my cultivation level increases a bit more, I have more treasures, and my cards are deeper, then I can try to explore the outside world."
Lu Xuan sighed in his heart.
He calmed his mind, and the spiritual energy in his body circulated. Following the cultivation route in the "Great Five Elements Technique," he continuously absorbed the pure and dense spiritual energy around him.
"Increase cultivation bit by bit, starting with diligent practice."
After less than half an hour of cultivation, a gray grass rope slowly came to his
feet, gently touching him.
Lu Xuan opened his eyes and saw a small grass puppet standing quietly in the courtyard.
From the mountain foot came a somewhat familiar voice.
"Junior brother Lu, are you there? I'm Guan Yan, coming to give you seeds."
"Turns out it's Senior sister Guan. I'm coming."
Lu Xuan's mind showed the figure of the woman in the yellow shirt in the transmission hall. He patted the grass puppet that warned him and appeared at the mountain foot in an instant.
He smiled, feeling pleased, as a thought flashed in his mind.
"Aren't opportunities something we bring to ourselves? Why do we need to fight for them?"
