Chapter 668 - 363: Tribulation Crossing at Sword Mountain (Part 1)
When leaving the contribution exchange warehouse, Li Mu had exhausted all his contributions and returned fully loaded, exchanging for a large amount of high-tier spirit seeds and Five Elements Spirit Plants: Fire Scale Flame Fruit, Blue Spirit Moon Lotus, Golden Sword Chrysanthemum, Yellow Vein Fruit, Green Vine Spirit Sunflower, and Yin Yang Spirit Plants: Illusionary Yin Grass, Jade Sun Spirit Fruit, all of which belong to Tier Five Spirit Plants, with an expected maturity time of a hundred years.
Besides these seven spirit plants, there was also a vast amount of supporting spiritual materials to aid the growth of these high-tier spirit plants.
Upon returning to the Seven Profound Sect, Li Mu immediately planted these spirit plants one by one in the top-grade spirit fields cultivated on the seven spiritual peaks.
Spirit Rain poured down in torrents, watering the ten-mu spirit field, with Spiritual Qi and moisture being incredibly abundant.
The planted spirit seeds would bear fruit in a hundred years, and the plant spirit attributes made Li Mu deeply expectant as he performed techniques.
However, planting each spirit plant in only ten mu of spirit field was far from sufficient for Li Mu’s goals. It would be ideal to expand the planting scale to about a hundred mu for each type, making advancement to the Void Refining Realm more assured.
Moreover, Li Mu also planned to cultivate a large batch of Tier Six Spirit Plants - Yanyuan Spirit Grass and Mouxing Spirit Grass, whose plant spirit attributes respectively represent lifespan and star source, relating to lifespan and divine thought techniques, being indispensable and precious resources that should be planted as much as possible.
However, whether exchanging for these rare spirit plants and seeds or buying spiritual materials that can aid the growth of spirit plants, a large amount of sect contribution was needed, which made Li Mu feel a bit of pressure. He took a deep breath and temporarily suppressed the anxiety and impatience in his heart.
Currently, being in the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, there were no safety issues, and earning sect contributions and planting spirit plants could be done slowly.
Li Mu summoned his wood element clone, gold element clone, along with the five beast companions, arranging them near the spirit fields of the seven spiritual peaks to assist in tending to the spirit plants. He then dove into the seclusion room to continue refining artifacts, earning more sect contributions.
In the cultivator’s world, time seemed to lose its meaning.
In a blink of an eye, ten years passed.
Li Mu emerged from the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, immediately extending his divine thought to check on the Seven Gods Mountain, the five beast companions, and perceiving the situation of the seven Divinity Transformation Avatars tending to the spirit plants.
Over ten years, Li Mu did not rest for a moment, constantly refining artifacts and alchemy to earn sect contributions, successfully planting Tier Five Spirit Plants across a thousand mu of spirit fields on the seven spiritual peaks of the Seven Gods Mountain; several Tier Six Spirit Plants also planted over a hundred mu.
To tend to these high-tier spirit plants, Li Mu specifically refined seven Divinity Transformation Avatars to take care of them on his behalf, thus allowing Li Mu more time to devote to other matters.
As Li Mu’s divine thought spread out, he immediately ’saw’ many things on the Seven Gods Mountain.
The first sight was the grand Battle Platform on Golden Sword Peak, a key venue for Golden Sword Peak disciples to practice martial arts and exchange Daoist skills, with a faint sword qi surrounding it, ready to unleash astonishing sword might at any moment.
At this moment, a fierce encounter was unfolding on the platform, with the peak master, Fang Shixin, transformed into a ray of golden light, charging towards the transformed Jade-Eyed Golden Ape. Fang Shixin’s long sword shimmered with dazzling golden light, each swing accompanied by a thunderous force, while the Jade-Eyed Golden Ape engaged with its agile body technique and formidable physical strength, wielding a golden rod in a thunderous force, both sides engaging in a back-and-forth clash.
As Fang Shixin fought, he shouted praise, indicating that he and the ape were clearly not exchanging techniques for the first time, thoroughly familiar with each other’s attacks, making for an exhilarating battle.
Li Mu’s divine thought lingered on Golden Sword Peak, captivated by the intense confrontation.
However, Li Mu did not stay long on the fight, letting his divine thought continue to spread, passing through mountains and dense forests, soon reaching the Fire God Peak.
Currently, Qin Wentong was at the core of Fire God Peak - within the Hundred Refinement Tower, where the Nine Dragon Refining Furnace was filled with blazing flames, each seemingly containing tremendous energy.
In the Hundred Refinement Tower, Qin Wentong and Chi Lian Fire Phoenix were jointly refining artifacts, with Chi Lian Fire Phoenix transforming into a red-dressed female cultivator, a Tier Five Spiritual Artifact suspended above the refining furnace, the two discussing something, seemingly exchanging insights on artifact refining.
Seeing this, Li Mu did not disturb Qin Wentong and Chi Lian Fire Phoenix, letting his divine thought continue forward.
Soon, Li Mu’s divine thought reached Wood Element Peak, known for wood attribute cultivation, where the peak master and also Hundred Herbs Hall Master, Fourth Elder Zhong Zilin, was a guest at the Cyan Jade Ginseng King’s residence. The two sat in an ancient tea room, sipping fragrant spirit tea, casually chatting, their laughter filled with lightness and joy.
Upon sensing Li Mu’s divine thought, the Cyan Jade Ginseng King’s face showed a hint of delight.
Li Mu smiled slightly, sending a message via divine thought not to reveal anything, and his divine thought then left Wood Element Peak, arriving at Spiritual Spring Peak.
Under the Jade Spring Pool of Spiritual Spring Peak, the Cyan Moon True Dragon revealed its True Dragon Body, coiled at the bottom of the pool in slumber, its dragon scales shimmering with a faint cyan glow in the water.
...
As the divine thought continued to spread, Li Mu inspected each spiritual peak, seeing the seven Divinity Transformation Avatars diligently guarding the spirit fields, the high-tier spirit plants thriving under their meticulous care; the five beast companions having fully integrated into the Seven Profound Sect, each enjoying their own pleasures.
