I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 483 - 275: Earthshaking Secret

"Lord Li, will my third uncle get lost? It’s been so long, and he’s still not here! Could something have happened to my mother?"

Just as Li Mu was lost in thought, Xue’er, beside him, asked with a worried expression.

Hearing this, Li Mu was slightly taken aback and felt quite surprised. It stands to reason that Elder Jin Ling is very keen on refining treasures and alchemy, and Bai Tianya, being a seventh-tier fox demon skilled in the Transformation Skill, should be able to infiltrate the Human Race Cultivators’ territory without being detected by other high-tier cultivators.

If nothing unexpected happened, they should have arrived by now.

"Lord Li, may I return to the clan and take a look?" Xue’er looked at Li Mu and pleaded again.

Li Mu furrowed his brow and glanced in the direction of the Spirit Field. If it weren’t for the concern over the Purple Jade Spirit Plant and the Yin Soul Fruit, sending Xue’er to the Snow Fox Race with the Tier Six Earth Element Spirit Ship wouldn’t be difficult.

With the Tier Six Earth Element Spirit Ship’s speed of traveling three hundred thousand lia a day, a round trip to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range - Snow Fox Race - Holy Land, if nothing unexpected occurred, would just take six or seven days.

The Tier Four Purple Jade Reishi and Yin Soul Fruit seedlings had entered the growth period; their growth status was excellent and not as delicate as before. Taking care of them once every half month to a month would suffice.

Soon, Li Mu made a decision and prepared to send Xue’er on a trip to the Snow Fox Race.

The Snow Fox Race was preparing to contact other demon races to collect high-tier spiritual materials and spiritual medicine for refining Spirit Pills and Spirit Treasures. This journey might yield worthwhile results, but before setting off, Li Mu had some matters to attend to.

"Alright! However, how about sending you back home in a few days? I need to take care of the Spirit Field first, set up a Spirit Array, and make a trip to Desolate Ancient City to purchase some spiritual materials." Li Mu asked Xue’er with a smile.

"Of course, Xue’er will stay obediently in the valley and wait for Lord Li to return," Xue’er replied happily.

"Alright! I’ll go handle some things first, and you prepare yourself well. If your cultivation breakthrough reaches a new realm, it might surprise your mother," Li Mu said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xue’er’s eyes lit up in excitement and she exclaimed, "Indeed, Lord Li, I’m going to cultivate now! I feel I’m close to breaking through!"

As she finished speaking, Xue’er jogged toward the Cultivation Room with determination, preparing to break through a new realm before returning to her clan.

Li Mu smiled warmly, landed beside the Spirit Field, and used the Clear Wind Rain Summoning Skill to call forth a gentle Spirit Rain to provide moisture to the Purple Jade Reishi and Yin Soul Fruit. Then, he extracted the Purple Sun Jade and Taihua Moon Dew, catalyzed them with Spiritual Power to supply growth-boosting spiritual materials to both Spirit Plants.

Weeding, pest control,..., Li Mu, resembling an experienced farmer, meticulously and efficiently tended to the five hundred acres of Spirit Field.

The two Tier Four Spirit Plants, the Purple Jade Reishi, grew two reishi leaves, evenly sized and mostly two inches tall, while the Yin Soul Fruit’s plants were sturdier, about four inches tall. At this growth rate, harvesting could be possible in about 20 years.

After attending to the five hundred acres of Spirit Field, Li Mu couldn’t help but reveal a joyful smile. His silhouette flickered and he appeared in the Cultivation Room, investing himself in the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion’s world to tend to the Grotto Heaven Spiritual Treasure World’s Spirit Plants.

Tending to the Spirit Plants took Li Mu three days, and afterward, he summoned the Earth Element Spirit Ship and flew out of Yin Yang Valley to Desolate Ancient City.

Throughout the journey, Li Mu maintained an outward state, with the Earth Element Spirit Ship moving silently and swiftly like a thunderbolt; within moments, he covered thousands of lia.

Approaching a hundred lia from Desolate Ancient City, just as he was about to arrive, the massive ship body breaking through the clouds suddenly halted, and then it quickly shrank.

In an instant, the ship transformed into a palm-sized form, flew into Li Mu’s hand, and was stored within the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl.

Li Mu summoned a Tier Five Gold Spirit Sword and traveled by Sword Control, turning into a streaking golden arc, dashing toward Desolate Ancient City’s Floating Harbor.

At Desolate Ancient City’s Floating Harbor, various spiritual ships were taking off and landing, creating a bustling scene. However, the previously seen large warships from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect, two major Immortal Sect domains of the Central Continent, were nowhere in sight, making the docking area of the Floating Harbor less crowded.

Compared to last time, it’s a marked difference.

Li Mu displayed his Mid-Stage Nascent Soul cultivation, carrying the high-level honored guest elder token from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, effortlessly entered the Floating Harbor, making his way directly to Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

All employees at the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion recognized Li Mu and stopped their work.

Upon seeing Li Mu, two young and beautiful attendants enthusiastically led him into the inner hall, looking at Li Mu with incredibly fervent gazes, eager to attract Master Li’s attention with all their charm.

"Miss Wang, your shawl was left behind, will you not take it?" Li Mu picked up the blue shawl left at his side and suddenly called out to Wang Lanting, suggesting.

"Master Li, if you like it, consider it a gift!" Wang Lanting quickly paused her graceful departure, turned back and looked warmly at Li Mu, boldly saying.

"Haha! Thank you, Miss Wang, it’s quite fragrant!" Li Mu brought the shawl to his nose, sniffing it with a sly smile.

Hearing this, Wang Lanting was overjoyed and just about to reply to Li Mu when hurried footsteps approached.

In the next moment, Lin Baoqing’s robust figure appeared at the doorway, looked at Li Mu with the shawl in hand, momentarily stunned, then displayed a cheerful smile.

"Master Li, how come you have time to visit today? I was about to send Steward Chen to your Yin Yang Valley!" Lin Baoqing asked enthusiastically, his face adorned with a bright smile.

Seeing Shopkeeper Lin and Master Li having business to discuss, Wang Lanting gave Li Mu a hopeful smile, turned to leave, and thoughtfully closed the door behind her.
