I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 747: Chapter 399: Master Qingyang (Part 2)

"I didn’t expect the Demon Abyssal Forces to make a comeback. Could it be that those passage seals have been opened?" asked Master Qingyang through transmitted thought to Li Mu.

Upon hearing this, Li Mu’s face turned serious, and he replied through transmitted thought, "Senior, the knowledge of the junior is limited, but I did hear some rumors about the weakening of the abyssal passage seals. In recent years, incidents of demon invasions in areas like the South Wilderness Spirit Realm have occurred frequently, which might be related to the seal’s loosening."

Master Qingyang quickly transmitted, "The seals on the abyssal passage were set up by seven Daoist Monarchs and possess immense power, beyond the breaking point of ordinary means. Now that the seals are weakening, this matter is no small affair. If the seal’s weakening is left unchecked, a great war between the realms might erupt again, leading to disastrous consequences."

Li Mu empathized, suspecting that a seal was related to him; otherwise, the Nine Demons Sect and the Master of Blood Demons would not have targeted him continuously.

"Rest assured, senior. The seniors of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect are already paying attention to this matter. When the two Daoist Monarchs return from the Outer Realm, they should be able to resolve the issue of the seal’s loosening," Li Mu quickly responded.

"Oh! The Profound Celestial Sword Sect harbors two Daoist Monarchs; their strength is quite formidable. Back in the day, the Celestial Dao Sect had only four Daoist Monarchs," Master Qingyang recalled with a touch of nostalgia, then continued through transmitted thought.

Hearing about the seven Daoist Monarchs’ seal, Li Mu thought of the secret realm of this trip, which seemed like it was a restriction set by the Daoist Monarch’s Cave Mansion, possibly connected to the passage seal.

"Senior, could you tell me about the sealing of the demon abyssal passage by the seven Daoist Monarchs? If I have the chance, I will inform the high-ranking members of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and have them strengthen the passage’s seals," Li Mu inquired through transmitted thought.

Master Qingyang, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, transmitted, "It’s fortunate for the Central State Spirit Realm that you have this thought. The sealing of the demon abyssal passage by the seven Daoist Monarchs is a legendary tale in this realm."

Master Qingyang paused slightly, seemingly recalling those tumultuous years, then slowly transmitted, "Back then, when the abyssal passage first appeared, demons rampaged, causing widespread devastation. The seven Daoist Monarchs stepped forward, each displaying their divine techniques, and jointly set up the seven-layered seal, thoroughly sealing off the abyssal passage."

"Each of those seven layers of seals contains the supreme divine techniques and efforts of the Daoist Monarchs, with immense power. As long as the seal remains unbroken, the figures within the Demon Abyss cannot breach the boundaries to invade our realm."

After hearing this, Li Mu was filled with reverence for those seven Daoist Monarchs and transmitted, "Senior, may I boldly ask, do the seven-layered seals have names?"

Master Qingyang nodded slightly, transmitting uncertainly, "The seven Daoist Monarchs, achieving the Dao through the Five Elements and Yin Yang, gathered the power of seven systems, and each seal is named ’Water Dao Realm,’ ’Earth Dao Realm,’ ’Fire Fusion Realm,’ ’Sharp Gold Realm,’ ’Cyan Wood Realm,’ ’Extreme Yin Realm,’ ’Extreme Yang Realm,’ with each seal representing a supreme power, distributed across seven places in our realm, forming the Chaos Array, and completely sealing off the passage between the two worlds."

"Logically, such a powerful seal, even after thousands of years, should not have any loopholes. How is it that the demon abyssal forces have reappeared? At this time, you must immediately inform the two Daoist Monarchs of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect to quickly investigate the cause without delay," Master Qingyang transmitted with a reminder to Li Mu after explaining.

Li Mu was deeply shaken by this. Not only do the seven-layered seals have imposing names, but they also contain unfathomable power. He quickly transmitted, "Senior, I will certainly remember this matter. Should the opportunity arise, I will inform the high-ranking members of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect to strengthen the seals and ensure the peace of both realms."

Hearing this, Master Qingyang smiled with relief, transmitting, "Good, having this intention is truly commendable. Let’s return to discussing the pill formula!"

Li Mu seized the opportunity to ask, "Thank you, senior, for your guidance. The Returning Void Pill is so important; how should it be refined?"

Master Qingyang smiled slightly and transmitted, "The pill formula for the Returning Void Pill is a Tier Seven Spirit Pill, which you might not be able to refine now. However, I can tell you that refining this pill is not complicated; it’s just that the materials needed are rather rare. You need to prepare several Tier Seven Spirit Medications - Nine Void Reishi, Purple Gold Spirit Flower, Concentrating Spirit Fruit, and Void Spirit Marrow as the four main Tier Seven Spiritual Objects, along with thirteen kinds of Tier Six Auxiliary Spirit Medicines..."

"Though the formula for the Returning Void Pill seems simple, it is actually filled with mysteries, aside from the four rarely seen Tier Seven Spirit Medications."

"For instance: the Nine Void Spirit Grass, generally found in Celestial Void Soil, aids the Divine Soul in transitioning from void to reality, promoting the power of the soul in Refining Void, which is the basic material for refining the Returning Void Pill. Similarly, the Purple Gold Spirit Flower, brilliant like purple-gold, blooms when Purple Sky Thunder Spirit gathers, aiding the Divine Soul in breaking through realms. Adding this medicine can enhance the pill’s effectiveness during the refining process, making it easier to absorb Dao Essence from heaven and earth."

"The Tier Seven Concentrating Spirit Fruit, shaped like a human child, also known as Ginseng Fruit, only grows on Tier Seven - Primordial Spirit Wood, taking a thousand years to mature and a hundred years to blossom and bear fruit. This fruit is extremely potent; consuming it raw can significantly enhance the Divine Soul’s capacity and is incredibly rare."

After a pause, Master Qingyang continued transmitting, introducing the last Tier Seven Spiritual Object to Li Mu: "The Void Spirit Marrow is crucial for refining the Returning Void Pill. It typically coexists with the ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Marrow, containing mighty heavenly Dao essence with the miraculous power of transforming a Dharma Realm from virtual to real. When refining the Returning Void Pill, Void Spirit Marrow can integrate the essence of other materials, forming the pill’s core."

After explaining the attributes and uses of the materials to Li Mu, Master Qingyang elaborated on each step and detail in the refining process, emphasizing the importance of controlling the flame, telling Li Mu how to observe the color and intensity of the flame, how to fuse the materials, condense the pill pattern, form the pill, and other crucial steps, also reminding Lee Mu to note the Spiritual Qi flow inside the alchemy furnace to keep the balance, aiding the pill’s formation.

He thoroughly explained to Li Mu the properties and uses of each material, and the cautions during the refining process, guiding him patiently and exhaustively.

Li Mu listened intently, memorizing these techniques deeply, repeatedly analyzing them, and immediately inquiring about any uncertainties.

Seeing Li Mu’s dedication, Master Qingyang was very gratified, feeling hopeful for the future. Li Mu’s cultivation level was not high, but his alchemy talent was exceptional, and his mind was sharp. Given enough time and resources, he would undoubtedly become an Alchemy Saint Master.

Once Li Mu learned the Returning Void Pill’s formula, Master Qingyang also imparted other pill formulas and alchemy techniques to him.

Li Mu was greatly benefited and was deeply grateful for Master Qingyang’s teachings.

For several days in a row, Li Mu stayed in the cabin, learning alchemy techniques from Master Qingyang.

Li Mu cherished the time being tutored by a respected teacher and couldn’t help but ask Master Qingyang for guidance on cultivation matters aside from learning alchemy.

"Hmm! You’re practicing an Ancient Technique, and you’re cultivating both the Five Elements and Yin Yang? Who taught you that you managed to reach the Divinity Transformation Realm?"

When Li Mu presented the issues faced in his cultivation, revealing the cultivation technique he practiced, Master Qingyang was greatly shocked, in disbelief, and transmitted his query.

"Yes, senior. The technique I’m cultivating is called the Yin Yang Five Elements Scripture, simultaneously gathering Yin Yang and the power of the Five Elements," Li Mu responded through transmitted thought, while removing his disguise, channeling a stream of True Essence to the alchemy furnace, showing the real technique.

Witnessing this, Master Qingyang fell silent.

Awakened by Li Mu’s Divine Thought exploring the Soul Realm Pearl, Master Qingyang first sensed Li Mu’s powerful Divine Thought, regarding the young man’s talent with renewed respect, making careful contact. Once he learned of Li Mu’s proficiency in alchemy, able to refine Tier Six Spirit Pills, Master Qingyang was even more satisfied, considering taking him as a disciple.

Initially thinking Li Mu was just an ordinary Divinity Transformation Cultivator, Master Qingyang was astounded to learn that this individual not only practiced an Ancient Technique, cultivating both the Five Elements and Yin Yang but also reached the Divinity Transformation Realm at such a young age. This aptitude and talent were enough to amaze any cultivator.

"How is that possible!"

"Cultivating the Five Elements alone is already difficult enough, yet you also cultivate Yin Yang. Are you aiming to walk the Chaos Dao?"

Upon learning about Li Mu’s cultivation technique, Master Qingyang was overcome with shock, unable to regain his composure for a long time.
