I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 278: Chapter 185: Five Elements Spirit Mountain

With the assistance of the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, coupled with the special effects of the Eightfold Celestial Fire Refining Technique, the efficiency, quality, and success rate of artifact refining have all greatly improved.

Li Mu immersed himself entirely in the artifact refining process, quickly crafting the remaining four Five Elements Spirit Swords in succession.

Li Mu continued refining the next spiritual artifact, taking out the Tier Five Mount Tai from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl.

[Mount Tai (Damaged)]

[Grade: Tier Five Spiritual Artifact]

[Attributes: Size at Will, Mount Tai Pressing Down, Tons of Beast Soul, Spirit-Repelling Traceless]

[Status: Artifact body damaged, base array damaged, spiritual energy impaired.]

[A Tier Five High-Grade Spiritual Artifact refined using Sinking Star Meteorite Crystal as a base, condensing Ruyi Crystal Stone, Illusion Crystal Spirit Soil, and Tribulation Infant Thunder Flame, weighing: one million pounds, with a high probability of advancing to Tier Six Spirit Treasure.]

The small black mountain flashed and floated in front, and through the talent of Recognizing Ten Thousand Spirits, Li Mu clearly understood the status of Mount Tai, frowned, and contemplated the refinement strategy.

After the Eightfold Celestial Fire Refining Technique was upgraded to level three, Li Mu not only gained three artifact refining divine techniques, but also developed a deeper understanding of the Dao of artifact refining, obtaining sixteen special inherited artifact refining techniques, such as spiritual artifact remodeling, artifact base re-refinement, artifact pattern extension, artifact array purification, and so on.

Li Mu considered whether to re-refine this damaged Mount Tai.

Firstly, when Mount Tai, the ’seal’ spiritual artifact, was refined, the materials were limited, causing its weight to only reach one million pounds, far from utilizing its artifact’s might. Secondly, with the artifact currently damaged, using the Second Heaven to reforge the Artifact Spirit could better repair its spiritual energy, enhancing its talent for further advancement.

With this in mind, Li Mu was excited, channeling his divine thoughts into the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl to inspect the ’warehouse’ hidden passage storing various refining materials.

The Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl has nine hidden object warehouses, where Li Mu organizes refining materials, puppets, spirit grass, and other cultivation resources meticulously.

After advancing to Nascent Soul, Li Mu subsequently exterminated several Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators and Divinity Transformation Demon Cultivators, acquiring numerous spoils of war. Due to the overwhelming quantity of loot obtained, Li Mu didn’t have time to examine and count them one by one, only roughly classifying and storing them.

Completely engrossed in the refining storage warehouse of the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, Li Mu quickly found numerous high-tier refining materials suitable for re-refining Mount Tai: seventeen pieces of Tier Five Sinking Star Meteorite Crystals, total weight: one million seven hundred twenty thousand pounds, six pieces of Tier Five Tai Ink Crystals, ...

Piece by piece, high-tier refining materials appeared continuously out of thin air under the lift of Li Mu’s divine thoughts, entering the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace one after another, quickly merging into a large mass of metal solution under the calcination of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire.

Li Mu multitasked, sending the Tier Five Spirit Artifact Mount Tai into the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, then controlled the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire to transform into thousands of thin filaments of fire, threading into Mount Tai’s dark artifact body one by one, subtly modifying the internal artifact array without damaging Mount Tai’s artifact structure.

Li Mu frowned deeply, beginning to consume a tremendous amount of heart power and divine sense, controlling the thin lines of fire like needles to sculpt three-dimensionally inside Mount Tai, modifying artifact patterns, remodeling spiritual energy artifact base, ....

Li Mu attempted to use the Eightfold Celestial Fire Refining Technique’s Second Heaven - divine technique: Celestial Fire Spirit Forging, to strip false and condense true for Mount Tai.

Regarding Dao principles, Li Mu was limited in knowledge, but his deepest understanding was of the Five Elements.

Subsequently, Li Mu directly modified Mount Tai’s spiritual energy inclination, using ’Earth’ as the base to generate Metal, construct Metal generating Water, Water generating Wood, Wood transforming into Fire, Fire returning to Earth, forming an artifact spirit base array with the cycle of Five Elements.

However, as he reached this point in refinement, Li Mu suddenly found himself unable to stop; ’Mount Tai’ emitted a strange spiritual energy fluctuation, requiring a large amount of Five Elements materials to complete the array.

Li Mu hurriedly integrated the refined metal solution into it, but ’Mount Tai’ continued its fluctuations, and a single attribute spiritual material couldn’t satisfy its appetite.

Unexpectedly, as soon as ’Mount Tai’ forged its spirit base array, it exerted such immense power, startling Li Mu. He quickly channeled his divine sense into the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl to extract various Five Elements refining materials.

Metal: Tier One Profound Iron, Tier Two Red Gold, Refined Gold, Tier Three Geng Metal, Taiyi Essence Gold, Tier Four: Supreme Profound Sinking Gold,

Earth: Tier Two: Earth Crystal Stone, Tier Three: Ink Dust Spiritual Soil,

Wood: Tier Two: Spirit Pine Wood, Spiritual Peach Wood, Tier Three: Blood Iron Wood, Spiritual Wood,....

Water: Tier Two, Cold Moon Spirit Spring, Tier Three: Earth Vein Spirit Water, Tier Four: Profound Nether True Water, Celestial One True Water, Tier Five: One-Origin Heavy Water,....,

Fire: Tier One: Red Fire Crystal, Tier Two: Fire Element Stone, Tier Three: Flame Marrow Crystal Stone,....

Whether high-tier or low-tier, various Five Elements materials, Li Mu extracted every bit of the Five Elements refining materials and placed them into the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace to bond with ’Mount Tai,’ encouraging it to construct the Five Elements array.

One hundred thousand pounds, one million pounds, ten million pounds,...., various kinds of Five Elements refining materials were constantly absorbed by Mount Tai, devoured, still displaying a greedy demeanor.

This got out of hand; the first time using Second Heaven - Celestial Fire Spirit Forging for refining, there was a sensation of losing control.

Li Mu’s face was stern, his mouth slightly twitching, having no choice but to throw in the Tier Six refining materials initially reserved for refining Tier Six Spirit Treasures: one piece of Tier Six - Ancient Abyss Profound Crystal, one mass of Tier Six - Earth Spring Emperor Soil, one bottle of Tier Five: Taiyin True Water, ....

Li Mu nearly put half of the high-tier Five Elements refining materials into ’Mount Tai,’ and the spiritual energy fluctuation seemed ’satisfied,’ emanating an evolutionary transformation akin to sublimation, with the originally dark mountain body forming a circulating Five Elements array on its own.
