I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 383: Chapter 232: Imperial Armor Soil (Part 2)

”What! It’s Master Li, you mean to say, Master Li, he, ...?” Venerable Chen Hang’s spirit was lifted, looking excitedly at Lin Baoqing.

”That’s right! Master Li can now craft Tier Six Spiritual Treasures! If you want to craft one, hurry up and prepare the materials! This news, you know it, I know it, don’t let it slip out!” Lin Baoqing nodded with a smile, solemnly reminding him.

”Is this true? How, so quickly, wasn’t it supposed to be fifty years?” Venerable Chen Hang was invigorated but asked in confusion.

”I wouldn’t dare deceive an elder, Master Li is exceptionally talented!” Lin Baoqing smiled slightly, reaching out with a gesture, summoning two Tier Six Spiritual Treasures, one water, one fire.

Venerable Chen Hang’s eyes lit up, staring intently at the two artifacts.

”These two Tier Six Spiritual Treasures were personally refined by Master Li! They’ll participate in next month’s auction, but Master Li wishes to keep it low-key, and I hope Elder Chen will keep it confidential.” Lin Baoqing introduced them briefly, then put them away with a happy expression.

”So it is true, I understand, I, Chen, understand and will not fail Master Li’s trust!” Venerable Chen Hang was thrilled, nodding repeatedly with joy.

”Elder Chen, which spiritual materials are you still missing, and what kind of Spirit Treasure do you want to craft? Master Li has indicated that the materials needed for crafting Tier Six Spiritual Treasures are by no means ordinary in quantity, quality, and spirituality! Otherwise, it’s prone to failure.” Lin Baoqing looked at Venerable Chen Hang, indicating with concern.

”This, I naturally know. I’m preparing to refine a Wood Nourishing Spirit Tripod to aid my Ten Thousand Trees Welcoming Spring Technique. I already have seven or eight types of Tier Six Spiritual Materials... Shopkeeper Lin, your pavilion has countless spiritual objects, do you have any suitable spiritual materials to recommend?” Venerable Chen Hang frowned, looking at Lin Baoqing inquisitively.

”Elder Chen, you are actually cultivating the Ten Thousand Trees Welcoming Spring Technique, which indeed requires a Wood Nourishing Tripod for auxiliary cultivation. To craft a Wood Nourishing Tripod, it is best matched with Ten Thousand Spirits Spiritual Milk, Wood Element Profound Crystal, Bright Spirit Wood, Nine Void Spirit Soil, ... for crafting a Wood Nourishing Spirit Tripod, Elder Chen, which materials are you lacking? I can help you take a look.” Lin Baoqing nodded, understanding, and analyzed in detail.

Lin Baoqing, in charge of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, is well-informed, even though he doesn’t refine artifacts, he knows some of the needs for artifact refining, his analysis is to the point and thorough.

Venerable Chen Hang, invigorated, proceeded to tell Lin Baoqing about the missing refining materials, discussing with him.

...

Half a year flashed by.

Yin Yang Valley, shrouded with eerie winds all year round, welcomed a Divinity Transformation Elder. He wore a green magic robe, his hair and beard unkempt, somewhat disheveled, as if he had rushed here from thousands of miles away, experiencing numerous hardships.

”Master Li lives here? How is this valley a place for living?”

The visitor was none other than Venerable Chen Hang. To gather the materials for crafting a Tier Six Spiritual Treasure, in these past six months, he traversed the Southern Wilderness and the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts, collecting refining materials everywhere.

Having now gathered the refining materials for crafting a Tier Six Wood Nourishing Tripod, he finally explored and found out ’Master Li’s’ abode from Lin Baoqing, hastening to Yin Yang Valley.

However, upon seeing the terrible environment on the outskirts of Yin Yang Valley, Venerable Chen Hang couldn’t help but furrow his brows, doubting whether the information given by Lin Baoqing was mistaken.

The desolate black soil bore no grass, as far as the eye could see, it was all barren mountains and solitary ridges, wind howling, covered in strange mist, Venerable Chen Hang expanded his divine sense but it was suppressed, faintly sensing a peculiar abnormal power emanating, revealing oddities everywhere.

Venerable Chen Hang hesitated whether to enter the valley for exploration or return to Desolate Ancient City to inquire further with Lin Baoqing.

Just then, a puppet flew out from within the valley, heading straight towards him.

Venerable Chen Hang was invigorated and scrutinized the four-tier puppet in front of him with unbelying astonishment. This puppet, crafted from Tier Five Star Wood, had its puppet pattern deeply integrated into the wood pattern of the Star Wood. Its limbs were agile, and the spiritual pressure it emitted was precise, not at all weaker than the stable aura of a mid-stage Nascent Soul. The cultivator who refined such a puppet surely had extremely high skill in the Puppet Dao.

”Honored guest, welcome! The master invites you!” The four-tier puppet flew over, gestured an inviting gesture, and welcomed with a neutral voice.

”You can speak too? Are you a Spirit Puppet refined by Master Li?” Venerable Chen Hang jumped in surprise, gazing at the Star Wood Puppet, and asked in amazement.

”Yes! Honored guest, please this way!” The four-tier puppet maintained its gesture, respectfully leading the way.

Venerable Chen Hang nodded, started moving to follow behind the four-tier puppet, heading to the core of Yin Yang Valley.

After flying for a distance, a sudden opening appeared, revealing a paradise-like Linggu. Yin Yang Qi, under the delineation of the protective array, was distinctly divided, separating both ends. Inside the valley, Spiritual Qi circulated and surrounded, with the Spirit Light of purple radiance and Spirit Mist of gloom, two distinct Spirit Fields emitted entirely different auras.

In the center of the Linggu, a petite and lively waterfall draped down, creating splashes in the serene pool below. The pool water flowed with the crystal-clear stream towards the outside of the valley, producing a crisp and pleasant gurgling sound, enabling a refreshing relaxation.

A square artifact house stood by the stream, guarding the two Spirit Fields on both sides.

Venerable Chen Hang soon saw the main figure, Master Li, gathering a cluster of Five Elements Spirit Fire in his hand, refining a Spirit Sword.

One by one, Tier Five Refining Spiritual Materials were subsequently introduced into the Five Elements Spirit Fire, undergoing high-temperature burning, rapidly merging, quickly melting into a mass, ... Only seeing, Master Li strike shot in a series of Spiritual Power into the refined artifact embryo, the red hot sword body immediately stimulated bursts of spirit light.

If nothing unexpected, those were strands of artefact patterns that had been condensed and inscribed successfully.

Soon, a buzzing sword hum echoed out, the Spirit Sword radiated spiritual energy, emitting an ’excited’ sword humming sound, celebrating its rebirth.

Venerable Chen Hang’s eyes widened, not blinking.

Just in this time, this Tier Five Spirit Sword was crafted! This was too fast!

For the sake of crafting a Tier Six Spiritual Treasure, Venerable Chen Hang sought help from many, going through considerable trouble, even devoted time to study artifact refining, gaining some understanding in the field, now he could no longer struggle with crafting a Tier Three Spiritual Artifact.

However, the refining techniques and methods he learned were like those of a blacksmith in a blacksmith’s shop compared to ’Master Li,’ utterly incomparable.

Refining materials with Spiritual Fire, assisting the refining of artifact embryo with divine thought, each path motivated with spiritual power, condensing the artifact embryo, artifact array, ... he witnessed Master Li’s ghostly skill, awe-inspiring artifact refining skills, unable to help but feel genuine admiration.

”Elder Chen, such an honor of you gracing us, my apologies for not welcoming properly, I hope you forgive!” Li Mu stored the refined Spirit Sword into the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, stood up, and greeted Venerable Chen Hang.

”No, no! It is my honor to witness Master Li’s artifact refining skills firsthand, the title of elder need not be mentioned, Master Li, let’s address each other as peers.” Venerable Chen Hang waved his hand at Li Mu, speaking excitedly and enthusiastically.

”This, alright! Fellow Daoist Chen, I won’t stand on ceremony then!” Li Mu smiled slightly, nodding in agreement.

”Haha, as it should be! Master Li, here are the refining materials I collected. Is it enough to craft a Wood Nurturing Spiritual Treasure?” Venerable Chen Hang laughed heartily, happily taking out a Storage Ring from his bosom, presenting it to Li Mu respectfully.

Li Mu accepted the Storage Ring, probed inside with divine sense, instantly spotting eleven sets of precious Tier Six Spiritual Materials. To refine this Spirit Treasure, Venerable Chen Hang had indeed put in a lot of effort!

”To refine a Wood Nourishing Tripod Spirit Treasure! These materials are sufficient!” Li Mu nodded with a smile, confirming.

”Great! Master Li, this is the reward for this time’s artifact refining, I hope you accept it with a smile!” Venerable Chen Hang nodded happily, then took out the Imperial Armor Soil and presented it respectfully to Li Mu.

”Well, Imperial Armor Soil is indeed something I need, I won’t stand on ceremony then! Fellow Daoist Chen, come back to the valley in fifteen days to collect your treasure!” Li Mu smiled slightly, accepting the Imperial Armor Soil, indicating.

”Alright! Thank you for your hard work, Master Li!” Venerable Chen Hang expressed his gratitude, then promptly got up and left.

As he watched Venerable Chen Hang depart, Li Mu set up the protective array, summoned thirty-six Star Wood Puppets to guard, and began the refining of the Wood Nourishing Tripod.
