Chapter 839 - 443: Land of Extreme Wood (2)
"Okay!" Li Mu nodded slightly, smiling as he agreed, "Clan Leader Kun, feel free to search. If you need any help, I will send you a message."
Kun Yuanba nodded, turned around, and quickly vanished into the depths of the dense forest.
After seeing him off, Li Mu used the Wood Escape Technique to start selecting a suitable spiritual land within the secret realm. As far as his eyes could see, towering spirit woods, thousands or even tens of thousands of years old, appeared in his view.
Under the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, their attributes were revealed one by one.
[Moonlight Ice Heart Wood]
[Grade: Tier Six Spirit Wood]
[Attributes: Condensation of Moonlight, Ice Heart Wood Charm, Tranquil and Deep, Pure and Clear.]
[Moonlight Ice Heart Wood, a Tier Six Spirit Wood, an ancient tree nurtured by Moonlight Essence and Wood Spirit Power, it has existed for ten thousand years. Its wood is as cold as ice, emitting a faint moonlight gleam, creating its own domain. It possesses cold energy and concentration power that aids in gathering one’s spirit and calming the mind, purifying the soul.]
[Star Dreaming Pine]
[Grade: Tier Seven Spirit Wood]
[Attributes: Star Power, Illusion Dream Interweaving, Unpredictable Changes, Hard as Meteorite, Starlight Gathering.]
[Star Dreaming Pine, a Tier Seven Spirit Wood, an ancient tree with a ten thousand-year-old history. Its crown is dotted with stars, gathering Star Power Essence and condensing it into its being. The branches sway with the wind, able to manifest countless dreamscapes, making it elusive. It contains powerful dream weaving abilities, serving as top-grade spiritual materials for refining high-tier puppet bodies and spiritual ships.]
...
[Cuiyun Ancient Vine]
[Grade: Tier Seven Spirit Plants]
[Attributes: Circling Emerald Clouds, Twisting Ancient Vine, Endless Life, Natural Protection.]
[Cuiyun Ancient Vine, a Tier Seven Wood Element Spirit Plant, accompanied by Tai Xuan Huamu’s ancient cloud vine. Its leaves are as green as clouds, vines winding and twisting, coiling between ancient trees. It possesses powerful life force, endless life, able to provide natural protection to surrounding creatures, simultaneously emitting a faint wood element spirit qi that aids living beings in cultivation.]
...
As Li Mu’s gaze swept over the diverse high-tier spirit plants presenting countless attributes, he felt bewildered and had to pause, collecting their spirit seeds or chopping high-tier spirit woods for storing them as materials for refining puppets and spirit treasures. He had no time to choose the spiritual land.
To Li Mu, the Cangyuan Secret Realm was like an ideal blessed place, with abundant high-tier spirit plants and spiritually potent spirit seeds at his fingertips.
What is this?
His gaze swept over a lush forest, drawn to a distinctive tree, standing quietly as if isolated from the world, emitting a faint golden glow while tiny golden baby fruits gathered on its branches.
Under the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the spirit wood’s attributes were revealed to Li Mu’s eyes.
[Primordial Spirit Wood]
[Grade: Tier Seven Spirit Wood]
[Attributes: Primordial Spirit Condensation, Primordial Spirit Fruit, Extraordinary Spiritual Energy, Concentrating Spirit Charm.]
[Primordial Spirit Wood, a Tier Seven Spirit Wood, thirteen thousand years old, autonomously absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and Wood Essence Qi, converting these energies into pure Primordial Spirit Power through its unique method. For cultivators practicing the Dao of the Primordial Spirit, the Primordial Spirit Wood and its Concentrating Spirit Fruit are invaluable, a main ingredient for refining the Returning Void Pill.]
It’s actually a Tier Seven - Primordial Spirit Wood, and it even bears so many Concentrating Spirit Fruits!
Li Mu’s eyes lit up with delight and excitement.
The Returning Void Pill is an auxiliary spirit pill for Divinity Transformation Promotion and Refining Void; in the future, it’s necessary to refine seven Divinity Transformation Avatars, making the refinement of the Returning Void Pill a crucial plan in Li Mu’s heart.
However, the three main spiritual materials needed for the Returning Void Pill are rare: Nine Void Spirit Grass, Concentrating Spirit Fruit, and Celestial Vein Marrow Milk, all hard to find.
Now having found the Concentrating Spirit Fruit, one of the main materials is solved; Li Mu took a deep breath, suppressing his joy, and began to examine the Primordial Spirit Wood carefully.
Its lush branches and vibrant greens radiated a faint fragrance, while the Concentrating Spirit Fruits hanging on the branches were crystal clear like gemstones, emitting an enticing glow.
This Primordial Spirit Wood could yield at least thirty Concentrating Spirit Fruits, enough to refine several furnaces of Returning Void Pills. Li Mu soared forward, taking out a jade box, he plucked a Concentrating Spirit Fruit and placed it inside the box, afraid of damaging this precious material.
After finishing the harvest, Li Mu’s gaze swept over this area filled with high-tier spirit plants again. Refining the Returning Void Pill not only requires gathering the three main materials but also rare auxiliary spirit medicines to enhance the pill’s efficacy; perhaps such medicines could be found within this secret realm.
Thus, Li Mu continued exploring the secret realm.
With the assistance of the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, Li Mu had unprecedented gains, not only finding "Celestial Cyan Spirit Vine," a herb that enhances the spirit qi absorption effect of the Returning Void Pill; but also discovering "Purple Mist Spirit Flower," which boosts the purity of the Returning Void Pill, reducing impurities during alchemy, ...
Several days later, Li Mu paused in a vast spiritual land, remembering his initial purpose of cultivating a spirit field for planting high-tier spirit plants within the Cangyuan Secret Realm.
Standing beside the vast spiritual land, Li Mu formed a technique seal, casting the Drying Technique.
Only to see a wave of intense heat emanating from Li Mu’s palm, the power of the Drying Technique surged, as if the blazing sun, roasting the spirit wood and spirit grass dry, turning them to ashes, leaving the area barren.
Next, Li Mu instantly cast the Earth Dragon Skill, where a giant dragon seemed to roam within the spirit field, formed by spiritual power, purging impurities from the soil, leaving only the pure and fertile spirit soil. At this moment, the entire spiritual land underwent rebirth, becoming more vibrant.
With time’s passage, the once flourishing spirit plants gradually vanished under Li Mu’s spell. Their lives’ conclusion transformed into fertilizer for the spirit field, nourishing this land.
Li Mu held a sword technique seal, linking his spirit with the Spirit Sword, engraving complex runes around the spirit field, each array pattern containing profound mysteries and power. Above the spirit field, golden halos began to form, interweaving and merging to create a vast composite array.
This composite array not only gathers Wood Essence Qi and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within the secret realm, accelerating the growth of spirit plants, but also does not affect the secret realm’s seal efficiency. At the same time, the illusionary concealment effect protects this vast spirit field’s safety.
After inscribing the large compound array’s patterns, Li Mu retrieved nine Spirit Swords, then embedded top-grade spirit stones into the array hub, activating it.
With hundreds of top-grade spirit stones embedded, with a "buzz," the array reverberated, instantaneously activated, emitting hums resonating with heavenly energies. Spiritual light spread from the array hub, enveloping the entire spirit field, rapidly gathering Wood Essence Qi and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power.
Li Mu smiled contentedly, then sent his divine sense into the Spirit-Taming Treasure Bracelet, summoning the Cyan Jade Ginseng King with a thought.
The Cyan Jade Ginseng King transformed into a low, white-haired elder, eyes gleaming with wisdom. He was about to bow to Li Mu but suddenly sensed the dense wood attribute energy in the surrounding environment, a lethal attraction to him, as if returning to his mother’s embrace, stunning him instantly.
"Master, where are we?" The Cyan Jade Ginseng King looked up at Li Mu, his voice tinged with a hint of trembling and excitement.
Li Mu smiled slightly and replied, "This is the secret realm of the Wood Extreme Realm; it should be the most suitable cultivation sacred land for you."
Upon hearing this, the Cyan Jade Ginseng King’s eyes flashed with delight. In this spiritual land, he felt unprecedented vitality and energy, as if his life force was greatly replenished and nourished here. He took a deep breath, savoring the dense wood attribute energy, revealing satisfaction and intoxication on his face.
"Thank you, Master!" The Cyan Jade Ginseng King gratefully looked at Li Mu, knowing that without him, he would never have the opportunity to come to such a place to cultivate.
"Don’t mention it; since you are my spirit beast, I will naturally strive to provide you with the best cultivation environment." Li Mu said lightly, then turned to the spirit field, solemnly advising, "Next, I will plant some high-tier spirit plants here; you can cultivate here and help guard them. Moreover, this site’s seal is extremely strong; do not exit the array lightly, as any mistake could lead to your demise."
The Cyan Jade Ginseng King collected the joy from his face, nodding solemnly, "Rest assured, Master, I will dedicate myself to cultivation and guard the high-tier spirit plants in this spirit field, never exiting the array."
Li Mu nodded with a smile, taking high-tier spirit seeds from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, starting to sow them in the spirit land.
