I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 481 - 274: One After Another_2

However, the one the Nine Demons Sect truly wanted to deal with, ’Sword Immortal Li’, did not come, but instead attracted people from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and the Taiyi Sect.

Following the orders of Ancestor Wutian Demon, the three Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables, Wan Gui Demon Venerable, Xie Yan Demon Venerable, and Red Blood Demon Venerable, were forced to infiltrate Yin Yang Valley to deal with the ’culprit’.

"We should retreat! The arrays set in this valley are quite profound, and ’Sword Immortal Li’ doesn’t show himself. I’m afraid we won’t be able to complete the Ancestor’s orders!" Red Blood Demon Venerable gritting his teeth, suggested.

"No way! If we don’t complete this task, we won’t be able to explain to the Ancestor." Wan Gui Demon Venerable immediately denied, fearing the punishment for failure.

Upon hearing this, both Red Blood Demon Venerable and Xie Yan Demon Venerable’s faces turned cold.

"What ’Sword Immortal Li’! Just a cowardly turtle, if you have the guts come out!" Xie Yan Demon Venerable shouted madly into Linggu.

...

Responding to Xie Yan Demon Venerable was the gale at the periphery of Yin Yang Valley. Inside, it remained calm and peaceful.

Obviously, Xie Yan Demon Venerable’s shouts and provocations were in vain, as Li Mu sat leisurely in the pavilion sipping spirit tea.

"Not good! Run! Quickly, it’s the Profound Celestial Sword Sect’s spiritual ship; they’re coming to kill us!" Red Blood Demon Venerable suddenly discovered something and shouted in panic.

"How could this be, what is the Profound Celestial Sword Sect doing in this valley!" Xie Yan Demon Venerable also panicked.

The three Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables used their escape techniques, turning into blood shadows and ghost mist, scattering in retreat.

Little did they know, nine golden long swords descended from the sky with a thunderous force, catching up with the three Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables one after another.

"Where do you think you’re going? Nine Swords of Profound Celestial, kill!"

Fang Yunjian arrived in the sky, man and sword as one. With a wave of his hand, sword Qi erupted, and cold light spilled everywhere. The Dao of Sharp Gold filled the world.

Inside Yin Yang Valley, Li Mu’s eyes narrowed, amazed by the visitor’s sword intent and techniques, which bore some resemblance to the sword array techniques he had learned, the Profound Celestial Sword Array.

Thinking of the name of the sword array, Li Mu couldn’t help but wonder if the Profound Celestial Sword Array he learned originated from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect?

As Li Mu pondered, the white-robed sword cultivator casually dispatched the three Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables, and his eyes with a faint smile met Li Mu’s gaze.

The white-robed sword cultivator’s clothing fluttered in the wind, and a long sword hung horizontally behind his waist.

As the white robe fluttered, the exquisite embroidery on his brocade clothing was faintly visible, "Profound Celestial Sword Sect - Steward, Fang Yunjian."

Embroidering names and positions on their robes was a clear statement from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect to their enemies, marking their important members. Dare to challenge them if you can.

Having dealt with the three Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables from the Nine Demons Sect, the white-robed sword cultivator flew directly toward Yin Yang Valley.

"The visitor comes with ill intentions!"

Li Mu sighed, stood up, and prepared to greet them.

Elder Hu from Taiyi Sect had just left not long ago; it was something Li Mu had long anticipated that people from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect would visit eventually.

Li Mu formed techniques with his hands, successively disarming several arrays,

"Is Master Li present in the valley? Fang Yunjian of Profound Celestial Sword Sect pays a visit!"

Seeing the arrays disarmed, Fang Yunjian smiled slightly, flew into the valley, and looked at Li Mu, introducing himself unexpectedly, "I didn’t expect Master Li to not only excel at artifact refining but also possess considerable array skills!"

"I’ve heard you also have the title of ’Sword Immortal Li’, such talent is indeed rare. Now, representing the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, I officially extend an invitation to you."

"Join our Profound Celestial Sword Sect, the elders have agreed to grant you the position of Hall Master. What do you think, Master Li?"

Before Li Mu could respond, Fang Yunjian, full of confidence, continued speaking at length.

So assertive, hearing this, left Li Mu speechless.

Is this the confidence of the top sect in the Central Continent? Compared to Taiyi Sect, how is this an invitation; it’s clearly a notification!

Not to mention the difference in their offers!

Taiyi Sect promised the position of Honored Guest Elder, no obligations, while enjoying sect treatment.

However, Profound Celestial Sword Sect offered the position of Hall Master, meaning Li Mu would at least need to fulfill the duties of a Hall Master, with only the remaining time for himself.

Only because of the power of Profound Celestial Sword Sect could they extend such an offer; any other sect that offered similarly would find it rare for anyone to join.

Li Mu lightly coughed. "Elder Fang, I appreciate your sect’s kind intentions! I’m afraid I can’t join your sect."

"Hmm!"

Fang Yunjian focused his sword-like gaze on Li Mu, unexpectedly surprised that his invitation was refused.

This was the first time he had ever been turned down.

The Profound Celestial Sword Sect is the top sect in the Central Continent, offering resources far beyond any other power; even the most reclusive genius longs to enter.

Under this premise, the invitations from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect to other cultivators were naturally considered mere formalities.

More like a notice, you have been chosen by us, the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.

Even so, no one has ever refused.

Li Mu was the first to ever refuse Steward Fang.

Recalling the Sect Master’s instructions, Fang Yunjian’s urge to kill arose.

In the Central Continent Spirit Realm, while the Profound Celestial Sword Sect is unrivaled in battle strength and holds the first position, it faces significant challenges, such as dealing with talents like Li Mu. If they don’t join, they must be vigorously eliminated.

"You truly won’t join?"

"Every year, at least a hundred thousand cultivators apply to join the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, and only ten are admitted."

"Moreover, they start as Servant Disciples, whereas you would be directly a Hall Master."

"Is it dissatisfaction with the offered conditions?"

Fang Yunjian stared at Li Mu, asking calmly.
