Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

Innate magical power - Recognizing all spirits, Li Mu had a panoramic view of the entire palace’s protective formation information.

[Netherworld Mist Array]

[Grade: Sixth-level magic array]

[Features: Thick fog, numerous illusions, difficult to discern spiritual consciousness, and isolated from spiritual consciousness. ]

[Using the power of the netherworld, a large amount of soul-confusing grass is used to form an array, with thick fog and complex illusions. Those who trespass will lose their way. Even a powerful spiritual consciousness will find it difficult to penetrate the fog. At the same time, predictions are made and spiritual consciousness is blocked from peeping. ]

[Mirror Mixed Element Array]

[Grade: Sixth-level magic array]

[Features: Mirror image, numerous clones, hard to tell true from false, ever-changing tactics.]

[With the sixth-order phantom stone as the core and a sophisticated array of array patterns, it creates several mirror-image clones that are almost identical to the original body of the intruder. The number depends on the strength of the spiritual power of the person who sets up the array. The clones have strong combat power and can be used to confuse the enemy and perform meritorious service. ]

Noticing that in addition to the complex protective formations surrounding the palace, there were also many hidden mechanisms and traps inside the palace, Li Mu's lips curled up into a smile, and he already had a plan in mind.

The next moment, Li Mu invested his spiritual consciousness into the Jiuzang Lingzhu, and five sixth-level puppets appeared around.

Li Mu chanted a spell softly, pinched his hands to perform hand gestures, and injected several streams of spiritual power into the puppets, activating them. With a low mechanical roar, the five puppets slowly unfolded, each emitting a different aura, as if they were five battle-hardened warriors, striding into the palace and entering the range of the two large formations.

Under Li Mu's careful control, the five puppets were like five lightning bolts that instantly cut through the dark fog. Each of them took targeted actions and went straight to the center of the formation to destroy the core formation pattern.

[Netherworld Mist Array] only has the effect of concealing, tripping, and blocking the prying eyes of spiritual consciousness. It has no effect at all on combat puppets.

The [Mirror Mixed Element Array] also had the same effect. It sensed the soul of the intruder and took effect. However, for the puppets controlled by Li Mu, these illusions and clones that relied on the perception of the soul became their least noticeable opponents. Because the puppets were not living beings and had no independent souls, their actions were completely driven by Li Mu's consciousness and magic. Therefore, the [Mirror Mixed Element Array] lost its target and could not create corresponding mirror clones.

Not long after, with a loud bang, the five puppets exerted their strength at the same time, destroying the sixth-order phantom stone from the core of the formation. Suddenly, the entire [Mirror Recovery Formation] collapsed, and all the mirror clones turned into nothingness. The [Netherworld Mist Formation] also completely lost its function as the formation pattern was destroyed. The mist gradually dissipated, and the true appearance of the entire palace appeared before their eyes.

What appeared before Li Mu's eyes was a magnificent and vast black palace complex, towering and mysterious, and every brick and tile was a deep black, the kind of black that could swallow all light.

As the [Netherworld Mist Array] and the [Mirror Image Hunyuan Array] collapsed, a majestic aura wafted from the depths of the palace. Li Mu felt a palpitation for no reason, as if a terrifying demon imprisoned in the palace suddenly awakened and exuded the terrifying aura of a supreme creature.

Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, scanned with his spiritual sense, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face. He immediately knew the reason why the entire Dark Spirit Star became a barren planet, the many spirit veins that were detained there, and the final destination of the massive spiritual power.

In the center of the hall stood a strange formation - the Reverse Life Formation. This formation had a restrained light and contained a vibrant vitality. In the center of the formation, a giant green egg quietly floated in the air. The vast amount of spiritual power was transformed by the Reverse Life Formation, generating countless tiny green spiritual flows, like a trickle, continuously pouring into the giant green egg, providing it with nourishment and protecting its vitality.

Li Mu's figure flashed and appeared in the center of the palace, and a magnificent scene immediately came into view.

In the empty and solemn hall, Li Mu's figure looked particularly small. Dozens of stone pillars were around supporting the huge roof. In the center of the hall stood an altar, and below it, dense array patterns spread out like ancient totems, interweaving into a complex and mysterious pattern. These array patterns were not only the cornerstone of the Anti-Life Array, but also the key to maintaining the Soul Binding Array and even the entire palace.

Above the altar, the giant green egg was suspended in mid-air, rotating slowly. Every rotation seemed to resonate with the surrounding spiritual power, forming subtle energy cycles. Li Mu could clearly feel the powerful vitality emanating from the giant egg.

Li Mu stared at the giant blue egg. Under his innate magical power - identifying all spirits, all its attribute information was displayed.

【Qinglong Spirit Egg (Embryonic Stage)】

[Rank: Eighth-rank fairy]

[Features: Emerald wood turns into dragon, supreme wood spirit, green wood domain, natural charm.]

[Status: Dragon soul is missing, vitality is fading, hatching process is blocked, reverse life formation is being maintained. ]

[The egg of the ninth-level Azure Dragon and the eighth-level Azure Moon True Dragon has a strong wood essence in its blood. The egg needs to absorb the purest wood essence of life in the world during the hatching process. Although this egg has been blessed by the wood essence of the world, due to the changes in the world, its origin has been damaged, its soul has been injured, its vitality has been damaged, and its dragon soul is missing. However, the cycle of heaven is cyclical, and all things have spirits. If the Azure Dragon egg can absorb enough essence of heaven and earth, vitality and energy, and its soul can be complete, it can break out of the shell and soar into the sky, and finally become the supreme and supreme among the wood creatures.]

After learning the attributes of the giant egg on the altar, Li Mu was shocked. He immediately realized that this dragon egg was the key to the Dark Spirit Star's fall into desolation today, and those imprisoned spirit veins were forcibly extracted through this reverse-life formation to maintain the vitality of the dragon egg.

"What a 'Night Emperor', he is indeed an old monster who has lived for ten thousand years, and he actually hides such a spiritual object."

Li Mu was secretly delighted in his heart, with an unconcealable look of joy on his face, thinking about how to get this thing into his pocket.

This egg has a flawed soul, and it relies on the Reverse Life Formation to transform the vast spiritual veins into vitality to maintain the status quo. If it is placed in the Painting World Treasure House, it will probably be difficult to maintain its vitality. Li Mu checked the situation of the Reverse Life Formation and confirmed one thing. The Night Emperor, Emperor Tianxing, was obviously not a master of formations. The Reverse Life Formation had very obvious flaws. It detained the spiritual veins of the entire Dark Spirit Star, but could not completely transform the spiritual power into an endless source of vitality to restore the vitality of the Azure Dragon Egg. Instead, it caused the entire Dark Spirit Star to be devastated and turned into a dead star.

The various high-level spiritual plants planted in the spiritual fields and medicinal fields around the palace were in such perfect growth condition mainly because the Azure Dragon Egg could not completely absorb the vitality transformed by the Reverse Life Formation, and it overflowed to many high-level spiritual plants. Under the indirect nourishment of the Azure Dragon Spirit Egg, these spiritual plants not only grew rapidly, but also had a quality far beyond the ordinary, becoming one of the few remaining places full of vitality on the Dark Spirit Star.

Realizing this, Li Mu's eyes lit up, ecstasy appeared in his pupils, and he was extremely excited.

The properties of this blue dragon egg and its domain are extremely suitable for assisting the growth of high-level spiritual plants. If it can be revived, hatched, and taken in as a beast, it will be able to efficiently promote the growth rate of all the spiritual plants in the treasure house space.

Li Mu took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, carefully examined the complex array patterns of the Reverse Life Array, and carefully planned how to put the Azure Dragon Spirit Egg into the Painting World Treasure House.

However, the Reverse Life Array, the Soul Binding Array, together with the entire palace, are an integrated whole with the mountain. If they are forcibly dismantled or moved, the dragon veins may escape and many spirit veins may escape, which may trigger a chain reaction. Not only will the vitality of the Azure Dragon Spirit Egg be damaged, but the balance of the entire Dark Spirit Star will also be broken, and it may even cause a greater disaster.

For a moment, Li Mu frowned, feeling a little hesitant and at a loss as to what to do.

Li Mu was in a state of enlightenment. He reviewed the many formations and space theories he had learned, trying to find a solution that would satisfy both parties.

Soon, Li Mu noticed that although the Reverse Life Formation had flaws, its core principle was to use the natural laws between heaven and earth to transform the spiritual power in the spiritual veins into vitality. If it could be improved without destroying the structure of the formation, it would be able to transform spiritual power more efficiently. At the same time, the formation could be re-arranged to completely melt the many spiritual veins into this black palace, making it a whole and completely separated from the Dark Spirit Star.

The entire sacred mountain, the many spiritual veins, and the entire palace, without damaging the many magic arrays in the palace, were refined into an independent whole and separated from the Dark Spirit Star.

This is undoubtedly a huge project.

However, it seems that it is not impossible. Li Mu combined the skills of refining equipment, setting up formations, talismans, divine patterns, and many other arts to conceive this unprecedented feat. He packed up the entire palace, the mountain protection formation, and the entire mountain range and took them away and stored them in the Painting World Treasure House.

After careful planning and design, Li Mu finally came up with a detailed and thorough plan.

Li Mu quickly set about implementing this plan. First, using his deep understanding of the laws of space, he drew an extremely complex spatial layout map. This map not only marked in detail every subtle detail of the Reverse Life Array and the Soul Binding Array, but also planned how to integrate them with the palace, the sacred mountain and even the entire mountain range to form an independent "spiritual domain space."

Then, Li Mu summoned the treasure house spirit, allowing it to provide the ultimate ability to "devour" this spiritual domain from its own perspective.

Seeing the large palace complex and the spiritual realm composed of numerous spiritual veins, the spirit of the treasure house felt like a thief who had entered a collection of countless treasures, and it wished it could take all of them into the treasure house space immediately.

"Master, this is indeed a rich spiritual domain, but it would be difficult to store it intact in the treasure house. Seizing so many spiritual veins at once would probably backfire against the will of the heavens in this world."

The spirit of the treasure house - the five-colored dragon looked greedily at the rich spiritual realm in front of it, as if it wanted to swallow it all, but was afraid of being backlashed by the will of heaven. It looked both fearful and conflicted. It circled around Li Mu anxiously, with complex and anxious light flashing in its eyes.

Li Mu smiled slightly when he saw this, and he had already made up his mind. He slowly spoke to the Five-Colored Dragon, "You don't need to worry too much about this. I have my own way to deal with the backlash of the Heavenly Dao's will. First, we need to use the natural laws of the Reverse Life Array to gradually guide the spiritual power and spiritual veins, and refine the two spiritual veins into this palace. Secondly, I will set up a series of hidden formations to confuse the perception of the Heavenly Dao's will, making it difficult for it to detect our actions. Finally, haven't I prepared a batch of special spiritual talismans to stabilize the space at critical moments? Even if you are discovered by the Heavenly Dao's will, it can help you resist the thunder tribulation."

"Right now, this is a good opportunity. If you succeed in refining this spiritual realm, advancing to the next level is only a matter of time." After a pause, Li Mu looked at the treasure house spirit and encouraged with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the five-colored dragon's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and the expression of greed and fear was replaced by an unprecedented fighting spirit. It roared excitedly, and colorful light shone brightly around it, as if it couldn't wait to plunge into this unprecedented challenge.

"Master is wise! I will do my best to help you accomplish this extraordinary feat!" The treasure mansion spirit circled around Li Mu excitedly and said excitedly.

Li Mu nodded with satisfaction, and then plunged into the intensive preparations with the Five-Colored Dragon, implementing the plan step by step according to the established plan.

First, Li Mu took out some sixth-level talisman paper and refined special talismans. These special talismans were engraved with complex space transfer and stabilization formations. He arranged them one by one at the key nodes of the Reverse Life Formation and the Soul Binding Formation.

After each soul-stabilizing talisman is activated, it will temporarily stabilize the energy fluctuations of the formation and provide safety guarantees for the subsequent transformation work.

Next, Li Mu displayed his superb equipment refining skills and refined a set of sophisticated array base controllers. These controllers could accurately adjust the flow of spiritual power within the array, allowing it to be transformed and distributed according to a predetermined trajectory. He embedded these controllers into the array bases of the Reverse Life Array and the Soul Binding Array. Through fine-tuning and testing, he gradually improved the conversion efficiency of the array, allowing the spiritual power to be more fully absorbed by the Azure Dragon Spirit Egg. At the same time, he gradually stripped away the connection between the spiritual veins and the Dark Spirit Star.

As the spirit veins were peeled off one by one, the entire ground of Dark Spirit Star collapsed and the mountains shook, as if the entire planet was trembling with this unprecedented feat. However, in the face of this tremendous power of heaven and earth, Li Mu and the five-colored dragon appeared unusually calm and determined, and they carried out their plan unswervingly.

The treasure house spirit used its eighth-rank cave treasure and its unique understanding of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to assist Li Mu in refining the spiritual veins... Li Mu controlled the array base controller with his divine consciousness, constantly fine-tuning the trajectory of the flow of spiritual power to ensure that every strand of spiritual power could accurately fall on the predetermined position, gradually refining the entire palace complex into a unified existence.

As the many spiritual veins were gradually stripped and refined, the entire spiritual space began to undergo subtle changes. The originally chaotic spiritual power fluctuations gradually became orderly and stable, and the entire space seemed to be shrouded by a mysterious force, exuding an aura of terror that could come at any time.

The will of heaven seemed to have finally noticed the unusual movement here. The sky of Dark Spirit Star was suddenly covered with dark clouds, covering the entire planet, pouring out thunderous roars, and lightning flashes through the clouds, as if a devastating blow would be dropped at any time.
