Chapter 800 - 424: Bu Mie Demon Lord (Part 2)
Upon learning that Li Mu can refine Tier Seven Daoist Soldiers, and simultaneously, about another Sealed Land in the Nether Water Sea Region from him, Fang Yunjian immediately used Flying Sword Communication to notify Sword Master Feng.
"Steward Fang, how long until Sword Master Feng arrives? If no accidents occur, the Bu Mie Demon Lord is also on his way!"
Li Mu looked at Fang Yunjian and asked with concern.
Upon hearing this, Fang Yunjian furrowed his brows and, after a moment of contemplation, said, "Since it’s about the Sealed Land, the Sword Master should come as quickly as possible. However, the Nether Water Sea Region is quite far from here, and even if he rushes with all his might, it will still take some time."
"Elder Li, this place is quite dangerous, and the Bu Mie Demon Lord is an extremely formidable figure. Wouldn’t it be better if you return with me to Celestial Star Island?" Fang Yunjian suggested, pausing to look at Li Mu.
Li Mu’s standing had already changed given his ability to refine Tier Seven Daoist Soldiers, so Fang Yunjian’s attitude was much more friendly and concerned about his safety.
Li Mu smiled faintly, shook his head, and said, "Steward Fang, I appreciate your kindness. But I’m already involved in this matter and don’t intend to withdraw easily. Besides, I’m quite interested in exploring the Sealed Land Array Restrictions. Rest assured, I’ll act with caution."
After hearing Li Mu’s words, Fang Yunjian knew he had made up his mind and stopped persuading him further, but solemnly warned, "In that case, Elder Li must be careful. The Bu Mie Demon Lord is powerful, beyond what you and I can handle. Let’s find a place to wait for the Sword Master, and then plan carefully!"
"Very well!" Li Mu nodded, glanced at Xue’Er and the Chi Lian Fire Phoenix, and stored them in the Spirit-Taming Treasure Bracelet, leaving the Cyan Moon True Dragon to accompany him. Then, he followed Fang Yunjian to a secluded island to await Sword Master Feng’s arrival.
"Steward Fang, how strong is this Bu Mie Demon Lord? Are you aware of his situation?" Li Mu followed Fang Yunjian, controlling his sword, inquired curiously.
Fang Yunjian’s expression was solemn, indicating, "The Bu Mie Demon Lord, named Tian Jue, is a traitor to the Human Race and unaffected by the Heavenly Dao of our realm. Empowered by the Immortal Demonic Qi of the Bu Mie Demon God, his realm advances rapidly and is incredibly formidable. The last joint assault on the Demon Cave was thwarted due to him!"
"A traitor to the Human Race? Immortal Demon God?" Li Mu was slightly taken aback, as he knew little about the Demon Abyssal Forces, and these revelations were new to him.
"Indeed! Tian Jue was originally an unremarkable Divinity Transformation Cultivator from the Nine Demons Sect. After receiving the Immortal Demonic Qi’s legacy, he rapidly advanced across two levels to the Integration Realm, yet remains unrestrained by our realm’s Heavenly Dao. Presently, his realm is likely not far from the next stage." Fang Yunjian sighed and explained.
The name Tian Jue seemed familiar to Li Mu, though he couldn’t quite recall from where, so he abandoned further investigation.
"What kind of existence is this Immortal Demon God?" Li Mu, increasingly curious about the Demon Abyssal Forces, asked.
"In the Demon Abyss’s Thirteen Domains, each Domain Master is a Demon God, with strength comparable to a Daoist Monarch or Ancestor level. The Immortal Demon God is the supreme Demon God of the second domain in the Demon Abyss. He cultivates the Immortal Demon Technique, rendering him immortal and extremely terrifying. It’s said during Ancient Times, he once ruled over the entire Demon Abyss, leading aggressive campaigns against our realm, and legends say he was subdued by seven Daoist Monarchs and sealed away. However, his influence still endures among the Demon Abyss, worshipped by many Demon Cultivators as the ultimate faith." Fang Yunjian explained in detail, his face grave, staring at Li Mu.
"I wonder how Tian Jue inherited the legacy of the Immortal Demon God. If the Immortal Demon God escapes its seal, it would be a catastrophe for the Spirit Realm." Fang Yunjian paused, looking at Li Mu with heavy concern, elaborating in a somber tone.
Upon hearing this, Li Mu felt tense; although he hadn’t personally experienced the wars of the Ancient Times, Fang Yunjian’s description allowed him to clearly sense the terror of the Immortal Demon God. If such an entity breaks free, it indeed spells unavoidable disaster for the entire Spirit Realm.
As they spoke, the two descended on a quiet island.
With a wave of his hand, Li Mu summoned a wooden table and two stools from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, then took out a treasured jar of Spirit Tea, meticulously brewing it up. The curling fragrance of tea drifted with the sea breeze, bringing a touch of tranquility and ease.
"Steward Fang, come and taste my Qingxu Spirit Tea." Li Mu smiled, inviting Fang Yunjian to sit down, offering him a steaming cup of Spirit Tea.
Fang Yunjian took the teacup, sipping lightly, instantly feeling refreshed, obliterating the fatigue accumulated over several days. He nodded in appreciation, "Good tea! Elder Li truly knows how to enjoy life!"
Li Mu gazed at the sea blending into the sky and said with a smile, "While enjoying life, we must not neglect our duties; the sealing array concerns countless lives in the Spirit Realm and cannot be overlooked. Steward Fang, do you know more details? If I’m not mistaken, there should be seven Extreme Realm Seals to form the Chaos Sealing Domain Array."
Pausing, Li Mu glanced at Fang Yunjian and curiously asked, "In the Ice Abyss Spirit Valley, there’s the Earth Demon Gathering Yin Array. The Nether Water Sea Region should be the Water Sub-Array. As for the other five sub-arrays, does Elder Fang know their whereabouts?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Yunjian set down the teacup, his sword-shaped eyebrows lifting slightly, looking at Li Mu with newfound admiration. He hadn’t expected Li Mu to be so deeply knowledgeable about the secrets of the sealing array, which both shocked and impressed him.
"Elder Li is indeed exceptional, knowing even such secrets." Fang Yunjian shot Li Mu a meaningful glance and, curious, further asked, "I have some clues about the whereabouts of the other five sub-arrays. However, this information is highly classified, known to only a few. I’m quite intrigued, how did Elder Li learn of such information?"
