I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 480 - 274: One After Another

Li Mu agreed to the invitation after much negotiation.

Elder Hu finally stood up and said, "Then I’ll deliver this good news to the Sect first. If Master Li needs any assistance in artifact refining, feel free to inform me. I’ll do my utmost to assist you."

Li Mu promptly stood up to see him off, saying, "I appreciate your help, Elder Hu."

After sending off Elder Hu, Li Mu arrived at the Spirit Field, looking at the seedlings of Purple Jade Spirit Plant and Yin Soul Fruit, which would take about twenty more years to mature. He sighed heavily, burdened with concerns.

The Elder from Taiyi Sect managed to find Yin Yang Valley, indicating that more forces would likely visit subsequently.

Yin Yang Valley was no longer hidden, and these Spirit Plants were hard-earned. Li Mu’s breakthrough to the Divinity Transformation Realm depended entirely on them. If circumstances forced it, he wouldn’t want to abandon them.

However, if it came down to a life-and-death moment, he would abandon resources for safety. As long as one stays alive, anything is possible. He must not be a hoarder.

Setting boundaries in his mind for when to abandon the Spirit Plants and retreat, Li Mu returned to Yin Yang Valley to digest Elder Hu’s insights on artifact refining.

Time flew by, and another month had passed.

While studying artifact refining insights, Li Mu devoted more time to refining the Earth Element Spirit Ship. Finally, he completed the entire Tier Six Spirit Ship by imprinting the Earth Element Array’s core onto Tier Seven Spiritual Material - Luofu Primordial Magnet.

In the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion Space, Li Mu summoned all refined Spirit Ship materials, as they floated in the air. One technique activated the Spirit Patterns in the ship parts.

Li Mu spared no expense, withdrawing a massive quantity of Top-grade Spirit Stones. Once the Spiritual Power surged, it turned into a torrent, flowing into the Array Hub, which was refined from Tier Seven Spiritual Material - Luofu Primordial Magnet as the Earth Element Array Hub.

Immediately, the Luofu Primordial Magnet, inscribed with countless powerful Spirit Patterns, explosively emitted strong spiritual pressure from the array patterns. Subsequently, hundreds and thousands of ship materials were attracted by the strong Earth Element array pattern, gathering and assembling precisely like building blocks.

"Crack, crack, crack...!"

Pieces of Spirit Ship materials instantly assembled into an array, soon forming a ship-shaped giant object, suspended in the air, glowing with Spirit Light and releasing powerful Earth Element spiritual pressure.

It’s done!

The Tier Six Spirit Ship was refined!

Li Mu’s eyes were misty with a face full of joy. Under his Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the Spirit Ship’s attributes appeared before him.

[Unnamed]

[Grade: Tier Six Medium Spirit Ship]

[Attributes: Earth’s Magnetic Field, Elemental Magnetic Shield, Elemental Magnetic Spirit Cannon, Magnetic Element Space, Primordial Magnet Balance, Instantaneous Magnetic Shadow, Elemental Magnetism Absorption.]

[Status: Spirit Ship newborn, Ship Spirit awaiting nurture]

[A Primordial Spirit Ship refined using Tier Seven - Luofu Primordial Magnet as the core, along with Tier Six - Earth Element Gold Crystal, Tier Six - Beast Hiding Hide, Tier Five - Star Wood, ..., and other high-tier Spiritual Materials. Ship length: 23.7 zhang, width: 3.2 zhang, height: 2.1 zhang. The Luofu Primordial Magnet naturally carries a magnetic realm field, allowing this ship to travel silently and efficiently, with a maximum daily speed of 300,000 li.]

"Hahaha! This Spirit Ship guarantees survival! No place will be unreachable!"

Seeing the detailed attributes of the Spirit Ship, Li Mu laughed happily and promptly named it - Earth Element Spirit Ship.

Li Mu’s Divine Thought focused on the Earth Element Spirit Ship’s Array Hub, imprinting his Divine Soul to refine it.

After completing all this, Li Mu eagerly left the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, intending to tend to the Purple Jade Reishi and Yin Soul Fruit, which had been somewhat neglected due to the busy ship refining.

However, just as Li Mu stepped out of the Artifact Refining Room, he was greeted by Xue’Er’s anxious report.

"Lord Li, it’s bad. Someone is breaching the array outside! It’s been several days now!"

"I know, don’t panic!" Li Mu responded nonchalantly, smiling to reassure her.

The grand array set up in Yin Yang Valley was reinforced by the natural terrain forces. With the Yin Yang Primordial Array, coupled with the Five Elements Protection Array, Eight Extremes Mist Array, ..., multiple arrays in tandem, it’s complex indeed! Even cultivators in the Void Refining Realm would be trapped in the array and struggle to break free.

Moreover, within the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, Li Mu had already learned of everything outside through surveillance puppets deployed beyond the array.

Only three Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables came to breach the array, presumably remnants of the Nine Demons Sect. Li Mu wasn’t too concerned. Even if they broke the first Yin Yang Primordial Array, now that the Tier Six Earth Element Spirit Ship was refined, escaping would be quite easy.

"Hopefully, the two Spirit Plants remain unharmed!"

Thinking of this, Li Mu quickly headed to the Spirit Field to check the status of the Purple Jade Reishi and Yin Soul Fruit.

Seeing Li Mu so relaxed, Xue’Er couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, her face breaking into a smile as she accompanied him to inspect the Spirit Field.

However, with three powerful cultivators outside, continuously watching, Xue’Er remained somewhat uneasy.

"Lord Li, those three outside, aren’t you worried at all? What if..." Xue’Er looked at Li Mu, hesitated for a moment, then asked worriedly.

Li Mu chuckled softly, gently patting Xue’Er’s head to comfort her, "It’s okay, there’s nothing to worry about. They can’t get in. Soon enough, they’ll be the ones crying."

Worried? There’s nothing to be worried about!

In the South Wilderness Spirit Realm, the Nine Demons Sect might have some arrogance, but with Desolate Ancient City nearby, the joint forces of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect are right at Desolate Ancient City. Soon enough, it’ll be their misfortune.

Unknown to Li Mu, during his time refining the ship, the alliance of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect initiated an attack on the Nine Demons Sect’s ambush location with numerous powerhouses from the South Wilderness Spirit Realm. The Nine Demons Sect wasn’t easy prey either; a great battle erupted between both sides, causing equal casualties, with some fleeing and others scattering.
