Chapter 783 - 416: Tianyan Divine Monarch
The thrilling battle finally came to an end. The members of the Treasure Hunting Team from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, faced with the two dignified Integration Sword Masters from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, appeared reverent and restrained. They resembled a group of children who had done something wrong, only to be discovered, feeling awkward and fearful.
Wan Shaoming quickly stepped forward, his expression humble yet grateful, bowing deeply and expressing his thanks: "Thank you, elders, for saving us. We have no way to repay you! Here, on behalf of all the members of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, I express our deepest respect and gratitude to you both."
"No need for these formalities; saving you was just a casual gesture." Sword Master Feng waved his hand casually, interrupting Wan Shaoming’s words of gratitude. He gazed deeply at Wan Shaoming and the cultivators behind him, speaking sternly: "Go back and tell Wan Renlang that this place is intimately linked with the seal of the Two Realms Passage. He must not harbor any inappropriate ideas about it. Each of you must make a Dao Heart vow, promising not to reveal the secrets of this place. Only by doing this will you be allowed to leave!"
Listening to Sword Master Feng, Wan Shaoming’s heart trembled. He responded immediately: "Yes, I will convey the elders’ words verbatim to Steward Wan. Our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion will not dare to entertain any other ideas about this place."
After speaking, Wan Shaoming turned to face the cultivators, speaking solemnly: "Everyone, did you not hear Elder Feng’s words? We must strictly guard this secret, as it concerns the reputation of our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion and the peace and tranquility between the two realms. Please make your Dao Heart vows now! We absolutely must not reveal the secret of this place to outsiders."
The cultivators responded in unison, raising their hands to make their vows. Solemn expressions adorned their faces as the mighty oaths echoed in the air, enveloped by an intangible force of the Heavenly Dao.
Seeing this, Sword Master Feng and Sword Master Chen’s expressions eased somewhat.
Once everyone had finished making their vows, Sword Master Feng nodded, signaling to Wan Shaoming that they could leave.
Wan Shaoming once again expressed gratitude to Sword Master Feng and then led the cultivators out of the underground passage of the secret realm.
As he watched the figures of Wan Shaoming and others depart, Sword Master Feng turned to look at Li Mu with a smile, praising warmly: "Elder Li, your contributions in successfully eliminating the Blood Demon Lord - Dana are invaluable, and further, in curbing the Demon Abyssal Forces and their attempts to disrupt the passage’s seal, your efforts are substantial! I will report this matter to the Contribution Hall and apply for contributions on your behalf."
"Indeed, if it weren’t for your discovery of Dana’s ploys, the two of us might have been deceived by him!" Sword Master Chen looked at Li Mu, sincerely expressing his awe.
Listening to the praises from the two Sword Masters, Li Mu smiled modestly: "The elders overpraise. Had it not been for your timely intervention, Dana wouldn’t have been stopped in time. This success was entirely due to the power of both elders; my solitary strength wouldn’t have achieved it."
"Elder Li, you’re too modest!" Sword Master Feng appreciated Li Mu’s humility and turned to look at the Yin Sha Spirit River behind him, asking seriously: "Although Dana’s disruptive actions on the seal were successfully prevented, the Demon Abyssal Forces certainly won’t give up so easily, and the Sealing Array here has some deficiencies. Elder Li, can you repair the Sealing Array or perhaps set up a protective array here?"
"Indeed, this place holds great significance. We will arrange for disciples to be stationed here, and as for repairing the grand array and setting up the protective array, I’m afraid we’ll have to trouble Elder Li!" Sword Master Chen looked at Li Mu, echoing the sentiment.
Hearing this, Li Mu’s heart stirred slightly, understanding the requests of the two Sword Masters but considering his own matters.
This place is a Land of Extreme Yin, incredibly suitable for cultivating high-tier Yin Spirit Plants. By setting up the Gathering Yin Array here, there would be no need to search for Yin-attribute spiritual materials elsewhere. No matter how high tiered the Yin Spirit Plants, they would achieve optimal growth. If a Spirit Field could be cultivated here, there would no longer be a worry about Yin-attribute spiritual materials in the future.
"The Sealing Array placed here is far beyond my capability." After considering, Li Mu indicated solemnly: "However, I can discuss with the array masters within the sect methods to repair and enhance the grand array, and I will do my utmost to assist in completing this task."
Sword Master Feng nodded, expressing understanding: "Elder Li’s words are indeed true. Repairing and enhancing the grand array is not a task achievable by one person’s efforts. We will fully support you; whatever resources you need, just ask."
Sword Master Chen supplemented: "Indeed, Elder Li, proceed without hesitation; we will provide the necessary support. As long as the seal’s security is ensured, any effort is worthwhile."
Li Mu nodded, understanding their intentions, and proceeded to activate the array array hand seal, restoring the teleportation array of the passage.
Subsequently, Li Mu, along with Sword Master Feng and Sword Master Chen, returned to the surface, heading to Ice Ghost Valley to arrange arrays and select an appropriate location for the Profound Celestial Sword Sect’s temporary base here.
After confirming the location for the station’s construction, Li Mu accompanied the two Sword Masters back to Northern Spirit City and used the teleportation array to return to the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.
The three went about their respective tasks. The Sword Masters reported to the sect about the Sealed Land, began allocating personnel, and proceeded with arranging the various matters related to the Ice Ghost Valley base. Meanwhile, Li Mu, upon gaining some free time, immediately chose to return to the Seven Profound Sect.
Li Mu’s figure moved like flowing light, quickly passing across the sky, heading toward the Seven Profound Sect.
Upon returning to the sect, Li Mu did not rest but immediately entered the Seclusion Room of the Sect Leader’s Mansion, opened the protective array, and entered the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion.
Inside the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, Li Mu appeared in form, casting his gaze toward the storage compartment in the character panel, with 64 storage compartments nearly full, containing the Time Fortune Spirit Turtle, Divine Rune True Understanding, Celestial Puppet Spirit Token, Soul Realm Pearl, and many other high-tier spiritual objects.
