I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 502 - 284: The Great Refining Void Foe

"Ginseng King, quickly escape towards me!"

Li Mu transmitted his words through Divine Sense. Before the words had even faded, he was already forming a talisman and quickly activated the Illusionary Array that had been prearranged.

Buzz—

The array suddenly resonated, releasing a powerful wave that instantly spread across the entire area.

The ground seemed to tremble, clouds churned from all directions, endless Spiritual Power surged like a vast sea, enveloping the entire world in this illusion, as if venturing into an uncharted domain, disorienting the Divine Soul, and making it impossible to discern directions.

Having just crossed the True Spirit Thunder Tribulation and then being ambushed by several cultivators, the Cyan Jade Ginseng King was already in a state of heightened alert, fearful and unsettled.

Seeing Li Mu offering assistance at this moment, the Ginseng King was ecstatic, like a drowning person grabbing onto a straw, swiftly burrowing underground and using the Earth Escape skill to speed towards Li Mu.

Successfully crossing the True Spirit Thunder Tribulation was largely due to the Tribulation Crossing Spiritual Treasures that Li Mu had prepared, so the Ginseng King trusted him completely now.

The sudden mist from the array caused the Divinity Transformation cultivators fighting over the Cyan Jade Ginseng King to all change their expressions simultaneously.

"Who’s messing around! Get out here!" The red-haired elder retreated, opening the distance with his opponent, and roared in anger.

"Old Ghost Lin, the Ginseng King has escaped, stop fighting!" an elder in green robes shouted at his opponent.

"Someone had pre-set an array here, not good! The Ginseng King is gone!" A white-robed elder looked around, filled with both fear and shock.

...

In an instant, several Divinity Transformation old monsters spread out, each using their Divine Sense and methods to search for the traces of the Cyan Jade Ginseng King.

Suddenly, there was a fluctuation of an Earth Escape Treasure; it was evident someone had supported the Cyan Jade Ginseng King and had deployed an Earth Escape Treasure to flee.

"Damn thief, where can you run?" The red-haired elder bellowed, a flame erupting from his body, instantly accelerating a thousandfold, pursuing the target at a meteoric speed.

"Hmph! Want to leave? Not so easy!" The white-robed elder coldly snorted, a surge of Spirit Light Talismans filled with dense Law Aura surrounded him and transformed into a talisman light, chasing after.

"Let’s chase first!" The elder in green couldn’t bother with his previous opponent, immediately flying towards the tunneling light; a black-robed man hesitated slightly before following.

Moments later, seven or eight figures rushed out of the Fog Array, unanimously pursuing the target; they were all Divinity Transformation cultivators, mastering profound Divine Techniques and Laws. They unleashed their skills, flowing light streaking like meteors, their speed astounding.

To the southeast, halfway up a distant mountain, Li Mu emerged from an ancient tree using the Wood Escape Technique, watching the flowing light of the pursuing Divinity Transformation cultivators with a smirk.

With a bit of a simple trick, they were effortlessly left behind!

However, it’s a pity for the Tier Five Postnatal Earth Spiritual Treasure.

"Boy, nice tricks! Leave that Ginseng King, and I’ll spare your life!"

Yet, at this moment, a teasing voice came from not far above, accompanied by a swiftly approaching figure.

Li Mu was slightly startled, but outwardly remained calm, lifting his gaze to see an old man in a green robe, frail and thin as a withered old tree, staring at him with cold eyes, smiling eerily.

"If you value your life, don’t try any tricks!" The old man warned lightly, yet his eyes were as sharp as swords, seemingly seeing through Li Mu’s soul.

"Elder Kumu! Is it right for you to rob me of my Spirit Medicine like this?"

Li Mu recognized the figure, a Ji Family honored guest elder specializing in Refining Void, confronting him without a shred of fear.

"Oh! Just a Nascent Soul boy, and you’ve got this much courage! State your name!" Venerable Kumu frowned, studying Li Mu, a bit surprised at the overwhelming confidence hidden in his tone.

"I am Li Mu, an Artifact Refining Grandmaster! Many in Desolate Ancient City should know me!" Li Mu replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, his gaze as clear as water, showing no fear even in face of a Ji Family Void Refining powerhouse.

"So, it’s you!" Venerable Kumu’s silver eyebrows arched, fixing his gaze on Li Mu with deep-set resentment.

This simple sentence carried endless implications, causing a slight heaviness in Li Mu’s heart. He had long sensed the hostility from the other party, though the reason eluded him. Nonetheless, he was clear that careful handling was imperative at this moment.

"Elder Kumu, could you show some mercy and spare this junior’s Spirit Medicine?" Li Mu spoke cautiously, watching Venerable Kumu with guarded vigilance.

He didn’t wish to engage in conflict with this formidable Void Refining powerhouse, but wouldn’t fear if the other party pressed aggressively.

However, Venerable Kumu didn’t directly reply but instead said, "Ha! Tianshang, Kun Ling, those guys had Spirit Treasures refined by you, causing me much trouble. I was looking for a chance to settle it! Isn’t this just delivered to my door? Kid, prepare to die!"

Before finishing, Venerable Kumu pointed, and a green light shot out, transforming into a giant hand reaching towards Li Mu.

As an Artifact Refining Grandmaster, priceless, Venerable Kumu didn’t intend to kill outright. If captured to the Ji Family, his value in servitude would exceed even that of a Tier Seven Ginseng King.

This grasp stirred roaring winds, space quaking, as if even Heaven and Earth might split! One could imagine the terrifying assault if caught by this giant hand!

Li Mu’s complexion slightly shifted, not daring to withstand this terrifying attack! He fully operated the Five Elements Escape Technique, transforming into a green-yellow sand, vanishing in an instant escape.
