I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 842: Chapter 445: Yellow Dragon Temple

Li Mu controlled his sword with speed, and after half a day, East Cloud Island gradually came into view, resembling a bright pearl embedded in the blue sea, sparkling brilliantly.

Before approaching East Cloud Island, Li Mu extended his Divine Sense, deploying the Divine Thought Divine Techniques - Star Concealment, to investigate the situation of the island ahead, and the location of Huang Yun Daoist’s sanctuary.

Soon, Li Mu discovered something.

The shape of East Cloud Island was unique, like a giant lotus leaf floating on the sea, its edges winding and intricate, meticulously sculpted by the ghostly skill of nature. At the center of the island stood a towering mountain peak shrouded in mist, reaching up to the sky.

On the island stood an ancient city frequented by Loose Cultivators, named ”Cloud Palace City.” It was built against the mountain and embraced by the sea, possessing a deep harbor. The steep terrain and the towering Spirit Mountain created a natural barrier for this Cultivation City.

Within the ancient city, the streets were wide and neat, lined with shops selling various Magical Artifacts, Pills, and talismans necessary for cultivation. The cultivators on the island mostly consisted of Foundation Establishment Cultivators, followed by Golden Core Cultivators, while Nascent Soul Cultivators were extremely rare. The number of cultivators on the island was quite large, bustling back and forth, selecting Magical Artifacts, bargaining, and exchanging cultivation insights, filling the entire city with vitality.

Huang Long Daoist’s sanctuary was located at the main peak of the island, where an antique Taoist temple stood at the summit. Above the main hall of the temple was a plaque with the three large characters ”Yellow Dragon Temple,” exuding a sense of transcendence with powerful strokes.

The core building of the temple was shrouded by a Grand Array mist, and Li Mu’s Divine Sense could not forcibly break through the array to peer into the secret realm within. If the array were triggered and discovered, it would be seen as a hostile intrusion, likely leading to misunderstandings.

Presumably, that was the sanctuary of Huang Yun Daoist.

Li Mu frowned and hid his true self in the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, with his Divine Sense residing in the puppet clone, controlling the puppet clone as it flew towards East Cloud Island.

Directly breaking into Huang Long Daoist’s sanctuary was not a wise choice, so Li Mu planned to start from the periphery and first infiltrate East Cloud Island.

Soon, ’Li Mu’ avoided the island’s guards and restriction traps, employing the Five Elements Escape Technique, effortlessly landing on the island, and his figure appeared on a street in the city’s interior.

’Li Mu’ successfully entered East Cloud Island and stepped into the most upscale tavern, intending to gather information about East Cloud Island and Huang Long Daoist from the conversations of the Loose Cultivator patrons there.

Li Mu found a seat by the window in the tavern, lightly holding a cup of Spirit Tea in his hand, but his mind had already drifted towards the surrounding patrons’ conversations, attempting to catch any mention of Spirit Void Blessed Island.

However, things did not go as he wished. Despite the lively discussions and numerous topics, akin to a small gathering, there was not a hint about Spirit Void Blessed Island, but rather, their conversations revealed another surprising piece of news to Li Mu.

In the tavern, most of the seats among the dozen tables were filled, with Nascent Soul Cultivators and Golden Core Cultivators gathered. In a corner, four Nascent Soul Loose Cultivators sat around a table, and their conversation caught Li Mu’s attention when one elderly cultivator with silver hair suddenly lowered his voice, speaking to a young companion beside him: ”Fellow Daoist Chen, you should conduct yourself more low-key these days.”

”Oh? Why is that?” The young cultivator regretfully looked towards his companion.

”Haven’t you heard? The upcoming trade meeting hosted by Isle Master Huang at his sanctuary is a major event that’s causing a stir throughout the East Sea. The day of the gathering is approaching, and countless experts and hermits will come to the island to participate,” interjected another burly Nascent Soul Loose Cultivator, immediately drawing the attention of everyone present.

”I’ve heard about it too,” replied the Nascent Soul Loose Cultivator across from him: ”The trade meeting personally organized by Isle Master Huang is said to have very high standards, with only those possessing a Yellow Dragon Token or those who’ve reached the Void Refining Realm qualified to attend.”

”Not only that,” the burly Loose Cultivator nodded and added: ”This trade meeting will see the presence of the eighteen Isle Masters from the Eastern Domain, and they likely aren’t only here for trading; there may be other important matters up for discussion.”

”Isle Master Huang has been in seclusion for many years, and suddenly emerging to host a trade meeting must have a deeper significance!” speculated the young Loose Cultivator, his eyes flickering with insight as if seeing the impending business opportunity: ”I suspect that significant treasures will emerge at this trade meeting.”

”Treasures?”

The eyes of the cultivators in the tavern collectively revealed curiosity, and their gaze inevitably turned towards their table.

”Hey, don’t underestimate this trade meeting,” another Nascent Soul Cultivator at the neighboring table chimed in mysteriously: ”According to the information I’ve received, at this trade meeting, Isle Master Huang is prepared to sell a rare pill called the Supreme Profound Concentration Pill.”

”Supreme Profound Concentration Pill? What kind of pill is it?” people curiously asked.

”This pill is extraordinary,” the Nascent Soul Cultivator’s spirit was invigorated, elaborating with authority: ”For Divinity Transformation Cultivators, it’s like rain after a long drought, able to help break through the bottleneck of Divine Sense, and even promote another tier.”

”Isle Master Huang is undoubtedly a leader in the Alchemy Realm, his Alchemy Skill has reached the Transformation Realm, but promoting to Void Refining is not the work of a single day. Although the Supreme Profound Concentration Pill can aid in breaking through the bottleneck of Divine Sense, truly entering the Void Refining Realm may still fall short,” the white-haired Nascent Soul Cultivator frowned and commented.

”Isle Master Huang hosting this trade meeting surely has deeper intentions. Perhaps he anticipated that many cultivators would come for the Supreme Profound Concentration Pill, but the real masters may be hiding behind the scenes of the trade meeting,” another Loose Cultivator pondered, eyes gleaming with the light of exploration.
