I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 469 - 270: Time Fortune Spirit Turtle

After presenting gifts to Venerable Qingwei and seeing Venerable Xuanling off from the valley, Li Mu continued to focus on artifact refining.

Refining a normal Tier Six Spirit Treasure with the assistance of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire only takes four to five days. The reason Li Mu told them it would take two months was that he didn’t want them to see how effortlessly he could refine a Tier Six Spirit Treasure.

After inspecting the artifact spirit materials provided by Venerable Xuanling, Li Mu couldn’t help but smile with joy.

The appetite of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire is enormous; every time a Spirit Treasure is refined, an extra portion of Tier Six Fire Spiritual Materials is consumed. Li Mu was troubled by the lack of Fire Spiritual Materials to satisfy it!

The storage bracelet provided by Venerable Xuanling held nearly thirty types of Tier Six Spiritual Materials, most of which were Fire type. Even after refining two Tier Six Spirit Treasures, more than half would remain.

The leftover materials from refining should be his reward!

How considerate!

Li Mu smiled with satisfaction, turned, and entered the Artifact Refining Room to start his work.

The first task was to refine two Fire-type Spirit Treasures, one for offense and one for defense, for Venerable Xuanling, based on his cultivation technique. Li Mu planned to craft a Fire-type round shield Spirit Treasure and a Fire-type ’needle form’ attack Spirit Treasure, forming a perfect combo for offense and defense.

Li Mu summoned the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, fed it Fire Spiritual Materials, and instructed it to form the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace.

Soon, the Purple Gold Fire Phoenix consumed the Fire Spiritual Materials, disintegrated, and reformed in the air into a refining furnace made of purple flames, with purple fires blazing inside, emitting a terrifying heat.

Despite its fierce temper, the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire is very trustworthy; it does its work for a reward. However, it never steals the Fire Spiritual Materials put into the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, which is very reassuring.

Li Mu multitasked, preparing to refine two Fire-type Spirit Treasures in one furnace.

Tier Six - Celestial Disdain Gold, Tier Six - Myriad Phenomena Flame Crystal, Tier Six - Kan Blue Glaze Stone, Tier Six - Spiritual Qilin Purple Copper, ... , one by one, the Tier Six Spiritual Materials were added to the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace. Under the calcination of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, they quickly melted into a mass of metallic liquid.

With his hands forming afterimages while crafting the Artifact Refining Technique, Li Mu rapidly injected streams of Spiritual Power into the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace.

The metallic liquid inside the furnace flowed constantly, with impurities being expelled, continuously refining and fusing, while the mass gradually shrank, ... , before long, the large mass of metallic liquid suddenly split into two masses, one large and one small. As streams of spirit light were infused, they emitted divine light, ... .

At this moment, Li Mu’s mind was fully focused within the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, his handsome face furrowed in concentration, brows tightly knitted, with beads of sweat forming on his forehead from the massive consumption of mental energy.

Li Mu had attempted refining two, even three or four artifacts in one batch before, but that was during the crafting of Tier Four and Five Spirit Swords and Spiritual Artifacts. They possessed the same attributes with a shared spiritual origin and could exhibit greater power when used together.

However, refining two Tier Six Spirit Treasures in one batch consumed far more Spiritual Power and Divine Thought than Li Mu had anticipated.

The artifact embryos of the two Spirit Treasures inside the Celestial Fire Furnace gradually began to take shape. The next crucial step was to inscribe the artifact patterns and activate the artifact spirits. Li Mu’s Divine Thought was already insufficient, so without hesitation, he decisively took out a pill bottle from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, poured out one Tier Six - Supreme Profound Clarity Pill, swallowed it, and ingested it.

Upon entering his stomach, the powerful medicinal power of the Supreme Profound Clarity Pill immediately burst forth.

Li Mu’s spirits lifted, his exhausted Divine Thought rapidly replenished, and the efficiency of his Primordial Spirit Divine Thought increased hundreds of times. He swiftly projected streams of Spiritual Power, quickly constructing the artifact patterns for the two Spirit Treasures.

"Zheng zheng... ..."

Within the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, a burst of spiritual light erupted. A needle and a small round shield, the two Fire-type Spirit Treasures, collided with each other inside the furnace, as if celebrating their new birth, yet also seeming to borrow the momentum to break free from the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace.

"Hey!" The Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, irritated by their antics, suddenly sprang out a purple flame snake within the furnace, intending to give the two little things a lesson.

"No! Don’t harm them!"

Startled, Li Mu quickly shouted to stop it.

The two newly formed Tier Six Spirit Treasures, still weak in spirit, couldn’t withstand even one burst from the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire.

Upon hearing this, the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire abandoned its attack, "Boom!" it dispersed the refining furnace, transforming into a Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix. It circled around the two trembling, disciplined Spirit Treasures, as if ready to ’bully’ them again at any moment.

"Stop it! Help me refine another Spirit Treasure!" Li Mu said, both annoyed and amused, as he quickly waved his hand to retrieve the small round shield and small fire needle, keeping them safe from any harm by the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire.

The medicinal effect of the Supreme Profound Clarity Pill was still working, with the powerful medicinal power aiding him. Li Mu only felt his Primordial Spirit Power surging, with a trend towards realm breakthrough. However, due to the Spiritual Power demands of the Star Nebula Observation Technique, he was unable to break through to the next realm.

Nevertheless, his Primordial Spirit was in excellent condition, significantly increasing the success rate of refining Spirit Treasures. Li Mu decided to refine the long-prepared Divination Spiritual Treasure.

Among the ten treasure refining commissions this time, Li Mu deliberately chose Tier Six Spiritual Materials possessing the Power of Cause and Effect and Power of Time, aiming to utilize Tier Six - Spiritual Rhythm Profound Turtle Shell, Tier Seven - Star Beast Relic Pearl, Tier Six - Withered and Flourishing Wood, which possessed cause, time attributes, and other high-tier materials.

Right, there’s also the newly acquired Tier Seven - Age Star Fruit Core.

These high-tier materials, being similar in attributes and characteristics, are more than enough to refine a Spirit Treasure with time and cause attributes!

Li Mu silently calculated in his mind, feeling somewhat anxious. This was his first attempt at refining a Spirit Treasure with these special attributes, and some familiar but currently unpracticed artifact patterns still posed a challenge to him.
