Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

Five days later, Li Mu piloted the Earth Spirit Ship and returned to Yin Yang Valley.

After taking care of the spiritual plant, he immediately entered the refining room and began to refine the spiritual treasure on Qingweizun.

The Heavenly Fire Artifact Refining Furnace was summoned, and various sixth-level spiritual materials were put in. According to Qingwei Zun's treasure refining needs, Li Mu refined one for him.

He immediately broke into the refining room and spent five days refining the sixth-level spiritual treasures needed by Lord Qingwei. A slender sword with a green light on its blade seemed to be made of the most powerful sword. Carved from delicate jade,

The hilt of the sword is made of a sixth-level spiritual mineral called "wind crystal". This sixth-level spiritual material itself has powerful wind-attribute power, which can enhance the holder's cultivation ability and the power of the sword.

The sword's array and pattern have all the functions required by Qingweizun.

After refining the Qingfeng Sword on Qingweizun, Li Mu casually refined two more sixth-level spiritual treasures to complete the two weapon refining commissions from Wanbao Pavilion.

Coming out of the refining room, the voice of Master Qingwei came.

"Master Li, I'm here as requested."

Li Mu quickly opened the defensive formation of Yin Yang Valley and let Qing Weizun go up into the valley.

"Master Li, I came here in a hurry mainly to refine the sixth-order spiritual treasure. Xuantian Sword Sect's counterattack is imminent. This spiritual treasure is related to my safety."

Lord Qingwei looked at Li Mu, went straight to the topic, and said with an embarrassed look.

"Live up to the trust! Senior, this is the spiritual treasure you entrusted to refine!" Li Mu smiled slightly, took out the slender Qingfeng Sword, and presented it with both hands.

Qingweizun's eyes lit up, and when he looked at Qingfeng Sword, he couldn't move his eyes away.

"Okay! Okay! Master Li, your weapon-refining skills are getting better and better!" Lord Qingwei grabbed the Qingfeng Sword and quickly refined it. He immediately learned all its functions and praised Li Mu full of praise.

"Oh! How is the battle situation with the Xuantian Sword Sect recently?" Li Mu smiled modestly and asked, changing the subject.

Lord Qingwei's smile faded, and he introduced with a rather solemn expression: "Fang Yunjian has been on the front line since the incident in Moyuan came to light. Xuantian Sword Sect and Xuantian Sect have both sent additional manpower, just waiting for this battle. Cut off the connection between the Demonic Abyss and the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm."

After speaking, Master Qingwei added in a low voice.

"Our losses have gradually increased in the past few days, and our team has been attacked by sneak attacks. It's not the work of the Nine Demons Sect, but more like the demon clan."

Li Mu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Monster clan?

The demon clan has been destroyed, how could it be possible to attack the monks in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm?

Just as he was about to refute His Majesty Qingwei, a bold idea suddenly occupied Li Mu's mind.

The brows knitted together instantly!

How could all the demons and clans cooperate with the Nine Demons Sect!

Reminiscent of the battlefield he saw in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains, where there was not a single high-level demon body, all doubts arose. When Li Mu caught a glimpse of the puppets rushing back from outside, he suddenly had a glimmer of understanding.

puppet!

The demonic energy eroded into the body, but it did not take the lives of these strong men, just to keep them as backup!

Silently, he brought all the monsters and tribes under the command of the Nine Demons Sect, and once again wiped out the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm in one fell swoop!

Thinking of this, Li Mu couldn't help but break out in cold sweat on his forehead.

"Senior, are you going to the ancient city? I'm going there too, so let's go with you!" Li Mu looked at Qingwei and signaled.

Lord Qingwei nodded happily.

Soon, the two of them were walking with swords and flying through the ancient city.

The port of the ancient city.

Fang Yunjian was discussing the preparations for this battle with several subordinates.

"This month's counterattack has been very effective. If we fight for another three months at most, we can wipe out the Nine Demons Sect."

Fang Yunjian first summarized the overall situation, and then analyzed it carefully. "If there are no accidents, our Xuantian Sword Sect will definitely triumph, but there are three things that I am confused about right now,"

"First, the Demon Armor Army of the Nine Demons Sect. According to the sorting over the past few days, the demon armor seized this time includes thousands of fifth-level magic armors and hundreds of sixth-level magic armors."

"The Nine Demon Sect must have more than just this magical armored army. Where is their main force?"

A Xuantian Sword Sect disciple came forward and said: "Return to the deacon, we have launched an investigation, but we have not found any clues so far. We have conducted a detailed search in the nearby Qianli Mountains, but found nothing."

Fang Yunjian pondered for a moment.

"Intensify our efforts. We must find the main force of the Nine Demon Sect before the war."

Then, Fang Yunjian continued: "Several teams of local monks in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain have been eliminated one after another in the past few days. Now I need a team to act as bait to fish out this group of people."

Speaking of the war, the eyes of all the disciples of Xuantian Sword Sect lit up.

Zhongzhou's resources, inheritance, etc. all exceed those of the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain, and it is almost invincible within the same level.

Isn’t it easy to catch this batch of miscellaneous fish?

Several people signed up immediately. Fang Yunjian selected the three most reliable people and ordered them to go out with a small number of men to lure the enemy.

As for the last point, before Fang Yunjian could say anything, he saw Elder Hu walking over with a gloomy face.

"Deacon Fang, please move forward. I have extremely important information that I would like to share with you."

Fang Yunjian was slightly surprised.

The two sects have been in conflict for a long time. What kind of news does Elder Hu need to convey in person?

He didn't think much about it and stood up directly.

"You guys wait here, I'll come back as soon as I can."

Fang Yunjian left the port of Huanggu City with Elder Hu and came to a remote wine shop.

In this dark room, Fang Yunjian saw Li Mu at a glance.

Step forward and salute with clasped fists.

"Master Li."

Li Mu made a gesture of invitation before placing a puppet core on the table.

"I went to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains a few days ago. Now the Ten Thousand Demon clans have been hit hard by unknown forces, with heavy casualties. But I don't know who it was. When I left, I left thirty puppets to collect information. This is the only investigative puppet that came back alive. , which contains part of the information about the destruction of the demon clan."

Fang Yunjian raised his eyebrows.

"The demon clan suffered heavy losses?"

This news caught Fang Yunjian off guard.

The information about the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm is clear. Previously, the human race’s old enemy was the Ten Thousand Monsters tribes, and they had been in a stalemate for a long time without a winner.

Such a behemoth was actually hit hard by an unknown force. If there were no accidents, it must be the Nine Demon Sect.

Fang Yunjian's expression darkened, he raised his hand and pressed it on the puppet's core, and all the memories the puppet saw on the giant mountain broke into his mind.

After a moment, Fang Yunjian let go of his hand, looked at Li Mu, and said solemnly: "Master Li, this information is of extraordinary value, what kind of reward do you want?"

Li Mu shook his head directly.

"The reward will be waived. I have a very bold guess. I hope you two can listen to it."

"The Moyuan forces behind the Nine Demon Sect have long been eyeing the Ten Thousand Monsters and various tribes. They plan to use the corpses of Ten Thousand Monsters and various tribes to refine puppets and take over the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm in one fell swoop."

"I'm worried that you are not well prepared and will suffer a loss in this matter."

Fang Yunjian's breathing became obviously heavier.

This plan to swallow up the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm in one fell swoop is indeed crazy.

Without adequate planning and the possibility of victory, no one would dare to do this.

The Nine Demon Sect is ready to invade the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm!

Even if there is only a 10% chance of winning, it is not something that the current group of disciples of Xuantian Sword Sect can handle.

The levels and sizes of battlefields are different, and the preparations required are also different.

Li Mu's reminder can help Xuantian Sword Sect disciples reduce a lot of personnel losses.

After a brief silence, Fang Yunjian stood up, bowed slightly to Li Mu, and saluted with cupped fists.

"Thank you Master Li for the reminder."

Li Mu just shook his head and said with a heavy heart: "I hope I guessed wrong."

Fang Yunjian suddenly said: "I will ask for help from the sect. The reinforcements will not arrive for at least ten days. Master Li, what do you think I should do?"

If someone else had said these words, Fang Yun Jianquan would have been farting, let alone asking Xuantian Sword Sect for help.

But the person who asked to speak was Li Mu. He had accurately guessed the intentions of the Nine Demons Sect, and his prediction was supported by real examples.

Now, Li Mu issued a warning again, and Fang Yunjian had to believe it.

Li Mu thought for a while, looked at Elder Hu on the side, and replied: "I have never encountered this kind of war boy, so I can't provide any advice, so I'd better listen to Elder Hu's opinion!"

Elder Hu lowered his head and pondered for a while before analyzing.

"Since the situation is not going to happen, let's not act rashly. I will also ask for help from the Taiyi Sect. It will take about ten days. During this time, we will stay put and make preparations for the war. When we have enough chips, we can fight the Nine Demons again." Zong Yi fights, what does Fang Yunjian think?"

Fang Yunjian thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll gather the people."

Before he finished speaking, Fang Yunjian suddenly frowned and took out a jade pendant from his waist. The piece on the nine-square grid gradually became dim.

There was a crisp sound, and two pieces on the nine-square grid were broken.

"This is... the life card of a disciple of the Xuantian Sword Sect."

Fang Yunjian nodded gloomily.

"It's two of my men, Gu Jianhui and Chu Linjian. They were both killed in the battle."

Just now, Fang Yunjian ordered the three of them to take the team out of the city, intending to lure out the disciples of the Nine Demons Sect who attacked and killed the team in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain.

Now he actually died in battle, and he died in two different directions at the same time.

This made Fang Yunjian believe in Li Mu's inference even more.

The Nine Demons Sect could not find two such strong men who could forcefully kill Xuantian Sword Sect's disciples, leaving them unable to even send any news.

Although Moyuan has established a channel with the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm, the channel is still weak and cannot allow strong people to get through, so the battle situation is still controlled to a certain extent.

Looking at the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm, the only ones with this ability are the demon clan.

"I made a mistake. I thought it was the forces behind the Nine Demon Sect that took action, but I didn't expect that they took advantage of the demon clan!" Fang Yunjian said angrily with an annoyed look on his face.

Two high-status disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect died. Li Mu was slightly shocked. Could it be that the Nine Demons Sect was planning to attack the ancient city?

To be selected as the first sect of Xuantian Sword Sect, one must be the best among them. Even they fell so quickly. If it were him, he would not be much better.

The ancient city is in danger!

Li Mu frowned, thinking about leaving the place of right and wrong.

Elder Hu sighed, looked at Fang Yunjian and said with relief: "Deacon Fang, people cannot be resurrected. It is not easy to act rashly now. Wait for the follow-up reinforcements to arrive, and then avenge them!"

"Elder Hu, I know what to do now that the situation is overwhelming! However, there are some things that must be done." Fang Yunjian looked sad, as if he didn't want to listen to the advice. Before he spoke, his figure flashed and he left in the wind. Fang Yunjian's firm tone was as sharp as the light of a sword.

"Every disciple of my Xuantian Sword Sect shall be buried in the Xuantian Sword Sect."

Li Mu looked at Fang Yunjian's flying back in astonishment. He knew that the outside was dangerous and he didn't care about his own life or death, so he still wanted to persevere?

Elder Hu sighed without a wry smile and explained to Li Mu: "This is the tradition of the Xuantian Sword Sect. The disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect are noble and will not abandon the corpses of their disciples in the wilderness."

Li Mu suddenly understood why the Xuantian Sword Sect had such strong cohesion. This was due to the sect's tradition.

"Master Li, I wonder if you have any other plans for the future?"

"For example, let's temporarily leave the land of right and wrong. After all, you are only in the middle stage of Nascent Soul and are proficient in weapon refining. The rear is where you can show your value. It is not appropriate to get involved in this war." Elder Hu looked at Li Mu and reminded solemnly. road.

These words touched Li Mu's heart, and he also planned to avoid the limelight for a while. However, the two spiritual plants in Yin and Yang Valley were still some time away from maturity, and he would be a little reluctant to give up. There was also Yuan Ying, Xiao Jin, and Xiao Wa. I went out to explore a secret place and haven't returned yet, and it's not convenient to leave for a while.

"Nowadays, there are hidden troubles in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm. It is indeed beyond my control. It's just that I still have some unfinished matters. I'm afraid I won't be able to leave in a short time." Li Mu hesitated for a moment and responded.

Elder Hu nodded in understanding, took out a jade pendant from his arms, handed it to Li Mu and said: "This is a message from Elder Keqing of our sect. With this thing, Master Li can go to Taiyi Sect for temporary refuge. He can go to Taiyi Sect whenever he wants. "

After a pause, Elder Hu looked at Li Mu with a smile and solemnly introduced: "By the way, the existing seventh-level weapon refiner master in our sect is very fond of you. He has asked me for someone several times. If it weren't for his body, If you are sick, I have to come and pick you up in person."

Li Mu pondered for a moment, accepted the jade pendant, and responded: "At the moment, I still have some important things to take care of. If I have time, I will definitely come to visit you."

Elder Hu smiled and saw Li Mu accept the token without saying anything. He smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. When Master Li is free, just go to Taiyi Sect and have a look. My mission will be completed."

Li Mu nodded slightly.

The contradiction between Xuantian Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect is too great, and Li Mu doesn't want to get involved yet.

But apart from these two cases, there seemed to be no better place to go, and Li Mu was also a little distressed.

Zhongzhou is no better than outside, the competition is very fierce.

Without the support of the sect, it would be extremely difficult to obtain medicinal materials.

While he was distressed, he suddenly heard the sound of drums beating outside.

At the wine shop, they saw Xuantian Sword Sect Fang Yunjian dressed in white and leading three of his followers to fight out of the city.

"The Xuantian Sword Sect is still like this. It doesn't care about anything when its brain gets hot."

Elder Hu seemed to be sarcastic, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

But after he watched Fang Yunjian leave, he said goodbye to Li Mu and took his many disciples to sit in the ancient city.

Elder Hu was not confused if he was afraid that the Nine Demon Sect would take the opportunity to sneak attack the ancient city.

This is not only a safe haven for Xuantian Sword Sect disciples to rest and prepare for war, but also a scheduled gathering place for reinforcements from the two subsequent sects.

There must be no mistake here!

Fang Yunjian led his men out of the city, and Elder Hu stepped in to stabilize the overall situation. The cultivators in the ancient city immediately had a backbone, and the situation quickly recovered. (End of chapter)
