I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 726: Chapter 389: Secret Realm Restriction

Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, Five Elements Spirit Mountain.

Lin Maosan appeared out of thin air, standing there, bewildered, unsure of how he suddenly appeared here. He tried to use his Divine Sense to explore the surroundings, but this Spirit Mountain was vast and expansive, his limited Divine Sense couldn’t fully probe the mountain’s range.

However, the area was filled with Five Elements Spirit Qi, extremely dense, of the highest quality. Lin Maosan took a deep breath and instantly felt countless Five Elements Spirit Qi pouring in, his cultivation faintly improving.

Thinking back, his master instructed him to enter seclusion. Lin Maosan roughly understood that this place should be the Grotto Heaven Blessed Land where his master cultivates.

Lin Maosan felt an inexplicable sense of gratitude; his master had taken such great pains to send him to this land for secluded cultivation. This opportunity was hard to come by, and he must cherish it and live up to his master’s expectations.

Lin Maosan found a flat area, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to focus on cultivating. The Five Elements Spirit Qi continuously flowed into his body, nourishing his meridians and Dantian.

Lin Maosan could feel his cultivation, usually hard to advance, steadily improving, as if undergoing a rebirth.

Time seemed to slow at that moment, and Lin Maosan completely immersed himself in cultivation, continuously absorbing Five Elements Spirit Qi, enhancing his cultivation, and forgetting the disturbances of the outside world.

Outside, Zhao Tianchen, Liu Yuqian, Ji Hao, Xiao Qingyun, and Zhong Yuling were also overjoyed. They were led by "Master" to a blessed land suitable for cultivating with their Celestial Spirit Root. The density of single Five Elements Spirit Qi here was dozens to hundreds of times richer than the outside, with a thousand acres of Spirit Field nearby, planted with a large amount of High-tier Spirit Plants, filled with the aura of high-tier Five Elements Spiritual Materials.

Cultivating in such a blessed land, they believed it wouldn’t be long before they could promote to Golden Core, not to mention having a ’Divinity Transformation Master’ with the same Spirit Root Attribute, devotedly guiding them. The five couldn’t contain their joy and wholeheartedly threw themselves into cultivation.

Li Mu cleverly detached his named disciples like chess pieces, letting them cultivate and grow individually, while he continued his leisurely daily life, unaffected by the commotion of the outside world.

Every morning, as the first ray of sunlight shone on the bluestone slate in the courtyard, Li Mu would leisurely wake up, enjoying a relaxing morning in the yard sipping Spirit Tea, or cooking a pot of Spirit Porridge, Spiritual Cuisine, quietly enjoying it.

In the afternoon, Li Mu would recline on a bamboo chair, holding an ancient book, or Divine Rune True Understanding, or Scriptures of Cultivation, immersing himself in the sea of books, not seeking cultivation improvement, nor passionate about power struggles, simply wanting to enjoy time in this tranquility.

Of course, every month, Li Mu would also allocate some time to inspect the Spirit Plants planted on the seven Spirit Mountains, refine Spiritual Artifacts, draw Spirit Talismans, carve Puppets, and so on.

Time passed like a fleeting horse, in the blink of an eye, three years had gone by.

In these three years, Li Mu stayed within the Seven Profound Sect, never venturing out. Life passed without waves, filled with simplicity and satisfaction.

One day, an uninvited guest broke Li Mu’s peaceful life. The visitor was the shopkeeper of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, Wang Wenbao, brought by Liu Yalan, appearing in front of Li Mu with a flattering smile and respectful demeanor.

"Master Li, long time no see! Your cultivation has become more profound." Wang Wenbao greeted Li Mu with a cupped fist salute, his tone full of respect.

"Hmm, Shopkeeper Wang, no need for formalities."

Li Mu nodded slightly, signaling him to sit down and talk, secretly curious about Wang Wenbao’s purpose in coming.

Li Mu’s gaze fell on Liu Yalan. Since she took over Li’s Treasure Tower, the cooperation with the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, and the various High-tier Spiritual Materials transactions were generally handled by her personally, not requiring his attention over these years.

"Tower Master, Shopkeeper Wang came over this time with an unusual request; it’s a matter of great importance, and he wants to discuss it with you personally," Liu Yalan said softly, with a tone of slight apology, clearly aware the visit might bring some trouble to Li Mu.

Li Mu smiled, waving his hand to signal Liu Yalan not to worry. Since Shopkeeper Wang came in person, it was fine to meet, and if his request was too excessive, he could just refuse.

"Master Li, I indeed have a request this time. It relates to your search for the Reversing Death Spirit Grass, which prompted this visit." Wang Wenbao cleared his throat, respectfully speaking.

The Reversing Death Spirit Grass was indeed something Li Mu had been searching for, and he had entrusted the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion and Celestial Secret Tower, offering a high bounty.

This item was crucial for fulfilling Tianyan Divine Monarch’s promise and breaking the Dao Heart oath. If there was definite news, Li Mu had to investigate.

"Oh? Could Shopkeeper Wang elaborate?" Li Mu’s sharp gaze swept across Wang Wenbao’s face, trying to glean some clue from his expression.

Wang Wenbao nodded, revealing a somewhat solemn expression. He took a deep breath and slowly said: "Master Li, to be honest, our treasure hunting team at the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion recently discovered an Ancient Secret Realm on the Extreme North Plain, suspected to be a Daoist Monarch’s Cave Mansion. Traces of the Reversing Death Spirit Grass were also found in the Secret Realm, but the restrictions of this Secret Realm are incredibly strong, requiring an Array Master to break them."

"Master Li, your Array Skills are unparalleled, so I came to seek your assistance, hoping to cooperate with you. If we can break the Secret Realm’s restriction, we will certainly find the Reversing Death Spirit Grass for you, and if the treasure hunt yields anything, we are willing to share it with you." Wang Wenbao said this, looking at Li Mu with earnest eyes, evidently holding Li Mu’s proficiency in arrays in high regard.
