I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 856: Chapter 452: Trial of Legacy (Part 2)

Time flew by swiftly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Within the Trial Space, countless colossal stone golem puppets gathered at the center. Their giant feet stomped down ferociously, creating earth-shattering booms, causing the entire space to fracture, with stones and dust flying everywhere.

Amidst the assault of these behemoths, a towering silhouette exuding overwhelming Demon Qi weaved among them. His body technique was extraordinarily bizarre and swift, with every movement accompanied by surges of Demon Qi and spatial distortions, continuously evading the attacks of the giant golems.

Bu Mie Demon Lord waved his hands, and a stream of Immortal Demonic Qi surged out like a sharp blade, fiercely clashing with the massive foot of a golem.

”Boom!” An enormous explosion rang out as Bu Mie Demon Lord was sent flying like a black cannonball, while the giant foot of the stone golem shattered, disintegrating into countless grains of sand.

Bu Mie Demon Lord stabilized his figure in the air, and the Immortal Demonic Qi on his body surged, causing his injuries to heal instantly. However, under the influence of the Array Power, the severely damaged stone golem also restored itself to its original state.

Meanwhile, one after another, stone golems surged from all directions, each exuding a heavy and terrifying aura.

A gleam of iciness flashed in the eyes of Bu Mie Demon Lord. He took a deep breath of Demon Qi, and his form instantly vanished from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was already atop the head of a stone golem. With hands clasped together, Demon Qi condensed into a black Demon Pearl, which he smashed fiercely onto the head of the golem.

”Bang!” The head of the stone golem exploded instantly, turning into countless shards of stone and dust. However, the other golems seemed unaffected and continued to charge toward Bu Mie Demon Lord.

Bu Mie Demon Lord frowned, recognizing that these golems, under the blessing of the grand array here, had an inexhaustible source of power, seemingly never-ending.

Such opponents, even for a powerhouse like him, were tricky. If he couldn’t quickly find Li Mu to end this endless trial, even he would be worn down and exhausted to death by the relentless attacks of these golems within this trial grand array.

”Damn bastard, where on earth are you hiding?”

Bu Mie Demon Lord scanned the surroundings, his gaze piercing, trying to find traces of Li Mu amidst the chaos. However, within the trial space, apart from the constantly advancing stone golems, there was no one else in sight.

In half a month, most of the trialists in the trial space had been slaughtered by him; however, he still couldn’t locate a glimpse of Li Mu.

Knowing that he possessed a Grotto Heaven Treasure, if he wanted to hide completely, it would be quite challenging to drag him out.

A wave of frustration surged in Bu Mie Demon Lord’s heart. Where exactly is that guy hiding? Surely hiding in some corner, watching this battle with a sneer?

The pressure within the trial space increased steadily, as if even the air was becoming heavier. Bu Mie Demon Lord’s expression remained icy, but his eyes darted rapidly, contemplating his next move.

Just then, a giant foot suddenly descended from overhead with the momentum of Heaven and Earth Destruction. Bu Mie Demon Lord snorted coldly, and his figure vanished from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was at the side of the giant foot, striking fiercely with his fist onto the massive appendage.

”Boom!”

An enormous explosion echoed, shaking the entire trial space. Bu Mie Demon Lord’s body swayed slightly, but he quickly regained his footing. The golem, however, was knocked back several steps, clearly suffering considerable impact from the strike.

Bu Mie Demon Lord let out a cold laugh, his figure disappearing once more, leaving afterimages flickering in the space, continuously assaulting the towering golems nearby with the ferocity of a storm.

...

Inside the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, the atmosphere was tranquil and heavy. Li Mu sat cross-legged on the ground, eyes tightly shut, seemingly disconnected from the outside world. In reality, his Divine Sense was attached to a scouting puppet, silently observing every move in the outside world.

Since Li Mu discovered a method to replenish Earth Elemental Spiritual Power for the Earth Element Body Condensing Talisman, he decisively used a Substitute Puppet for the trial, while his true form, along with Xue’Er and others, hid inside the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, planning to outlast the ongoing inheritance trial.

However, just as Li Mu thought everything was under control and victory was within reach, an unexpected discovery shattered his plans.

The terrifying Bu Mie Demon Lord, who was believed to be dead, was still alive and present in this trial space, causing shockwaves of disbelief in Li Mu’s heart.

Although Bu Mie Demon Lord’s figure and appearance had undergone significant changes, the lingering Immortal Demonic Qi and the horrific scenes of him slaying Void Refining Cultivators left Li Mu with no doubt about his true identity—it was unmistakably Bu Mie Demon Lord.

Fully aware of Bu Mie Demon Lord’s terror, and the nightmarish scenes of his brutal slaying of Void Refining Cultivators, deeply etched in Li Mu’s mind, the Substitute Puppet hid even more profoundly, not daring to show itself lightly to avoid detection by Bu Mie Demon Lord.

Through the perspective of the scouting puppet, Li Mu watched from afar as Bu Mie Demon Lord battled fiercely with the colossal stone golems. Those gigantic statues, like ancient guardians, stood majestically, each exuding an ancient and mysterious aura. Yet, in the face of Bu Mie Demon Lord’s overwhelming Demon Qi, they seemed fragile and vulnerable.

Bu Mie Demon Lord moved with agility, his Demon Qi surging to the heavens, each attack carrying the power to destroy Heaven and Earth. Under his assault, the gigantic stone statues crumbled one after another, turning into ruins. However, Bu Mie Demon Lord appeared unsatisfied. His eyes were filled with brutality, his Divine Sense scanning repeatedly, as if searching for something.
