Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

The light of the Qingming Sword was like an unstoppable torrent, constantly eroding the shield formed by the Blood Demon Pearl. However, what was even more terrifying was that this sword light carried a destructive force that could destroy the origin of his blood path.

"Why... why are you so powerful..." Xue Yuan roared in horror, with despair in his voice. As a Mahayana monk, he had experienced countless battles in his life and had never felt so powerless.

The cultivator in front of him who had achieved the state of fusion not only had sword power that was beyond imagination, but also possessed terrifying strength that could threaten his life. He was clearly only at the initial stage of fusion, yet he made him feel so powerless.

With a "puff" sound, the Qingming sword light instantly broke through the shield and directly destroyed most of the origin of Xueyuan's Dao domain.

The leader of the blood clan - Blood Grudge endured the severe damage and performed the secret technique - Blood Realm Escape, tearing open the space in desperation and achieving instant transfer over long distances.

Li Mu's eyes were cold, and the Wheel of Time and Space was running to its extreme. He performed the Sky-Splitting Technique, and his body turned into a stream of light, chasing relentlessly. The Five Elements Sword had merged with his will, and the Qingming Sword Light slashed out continuously.

Driven by the power of the blood realm's escape, Xue Yuan's figure was like a ghost, shuttling through the cracks in space, trying to escape the deadly pursuit.

However, Li Mu's Sky-Splitting Technique was obviously more sophisticated, as if he could see through all the mysteries of space. Every time a sword beam was swung out, it accurately predicted the direction of Xue Yuan's escape and cut off those tiny space cracks one by one, completely blocking Xue Yuan's retreat.

"Prepare to die! Today, you can't escape even if you have wings!" Li Mu's voice echoed in the void, chasing relentlessly.

Xue Yuan was fleeing in the endless void, with a sharp sword light behind him, which made him terrified. It was a terrifying force that could penetrate all his defenses and directly strike his soul and origin.

"I can't accept this! I am the leader of the blood clan, a powerful Mahayana cultivator. How can I die at the hands of a fusion cultivator!" Xue Yuan roared in his heart, but the reality was extremely cruel. He was at the end of the road. The origin of his blood path was consumed time and time again, and his cultivation had fallen from Mahayana to the initial stage of Mahayana.

"what!"

The Blood Yuan, who turned into a blood shadow and escaped, screamed in vain. He was once again grazed by the precise Qingming sword. This time, not only was one of his blood clones completely annihilated, but even the blood origin of his body was severely damaged again.

Xueyuan's heart was filled with unwillingness and madness. The little blood essence left in his body surged wildly like boiling magma. His eyes turned scarlet, as if they were about to drip blood.

"You forced me to do this. You forced me to do this. Today, even if I die, I will drag you down with me to be buried with me!"

At this moment, Xue Yuan stared at Li Mu. With no other options left, he had only one thought in his mind and his eyes were filled with hysterical madness.

The next moment, the blood source in Xueyuan's body, together with the Blood Demon Pearl, began to expand rapidly, forming a huge blood-colored sphere, illuminating the entire void with a scarlet glow. The blood source was burning madly, preparing for the final self-destruction. If this power erupted, it would be enough to turn everything in the Nether Water Sea into nothingness.

Facing Xue Yuan's crazy behavior, Li Mu's expression remained as calm as ice. His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the void and look directly at the blood-colored sphere that had expanded to the extreme. The Qingming sword in his hand did not waver in the slightest because of the opponent's desperate counterattack. Instead, it became more condensed and the sword intent was overwhelming.

"Hmph, you're trying to drag me down with you at the cost of self-destruction? That's too naive." Li Mu's lips curled up into a smile. He already had a countermeasure in his mind. The Qiankun Bagua Mirror suddenly appeared, suspended above his head, shining brightly. The Bagua pattern spun rapidly, releasing a majestic force of time and space.

"The world is reversed, it's settled!"

With a low shout from Li Mu, the power of time and space released by the Qiankun Bagua Mirror suddenly exploded, like invisible shackles, tightly binding the blood-colored sphere of Xueyuan that was about to self-destruct.

Under the influence of the force of time and space, the blood-colored sphere's expansion speed suddenly slowed down, as if it was forcibly suppressed by an invisible force. The madly burning blood source of Blood Resentment and the Dao Mirror Soul also stagnated instantly under the influence of this force.

"No! This is impossible!" Xue Yuan roared in horror, unable to understand. How could a great Mahayana Taoist not even be able to self-destruct? How could he be suppressed so easily?
However, Li Mu did not give him too much time to think. His figure flashed and appeared in front of Xue Yuan. He injected a huge amount of chaotic power into the Five Elements Sword in his hand. With a light push, the Qingming Sword Light instantly released a dazzling chaotic sword light, penetrating Xue Yuan's stagnant blood-colored sphere and directly bombarding his blood origin and soul.

"Ah——!" Xueyuan let out his last miserably scream. The power of chaos was like a flood and a beast, mercilessly devouring the remaining blood essence in his body and wiping out his soul and consciousness along with it.

The blood-colored sphere shrank rapidly under the stranglehold of the chaotic power, and finally condensed into a blood crystal, half a meter long and wide, full of blood power, crystal clear, pure and flawless.

With the complete demise of Blood Grudge, the blood crystal slowly floated in the void, emitting a strong blood light, as if telling the end of a legend.

Li Mu's eyes lit up, and under his innate magical power - identifying all spirits, all the properties of the blood-colored crystal appeared before him.

[Blood Marrow Crystal]

[Rank: Eighth-rank Dao Object]

[Features: Blood Path Essence, Blood Power Source, Chaos Remnant, Blood Path Crystal, Blood Sea Source, Blood Coagulates All Evils, Chaos Remnant]

[Status: The Great Dao Master of the Blood Path has fallen, the blood source has condensed, but the spirituality has not yet condensed. ]

【Blood Path Marrow Crystal, this blood crystal was formed by the failed self-destruction of the Great Daoist Master Xueyuan, and was forcibly condensed by the power of chaos. It gathers the essence of his lifelong blood path cultivation and the blood magic bead. The blood crystal not only contains the vast and boundless power of the blood path, but also hides the evil power of soul-devouring and soul-stealing, corroding the will of living beings and strengthening themselves. This sutra contains the supreme secret of the blood path. The blood power fluctuations released by the blood crystal, accompanied by subtle effects on the surrounding environment, make living beings desire it and easily generate evil thoughts; if the holder can correctly master its use method, it can greatly enhance the power of blood-related spells, use blood crystals as a medium, and perform blood path secrets that terrify the enemy, devour the opponent's soul and vitality, and transform them into their own cultivation. The blood crystal retains the obsession of the Blood Resentment Master's ultimate pursuit of the blood path, which will lead him onto the path of the blood path. 】

Looking at the properties of the blood crystal, Li Mu smiled with satisfaction. It was actually a good material for refining weapons. It should be able to be refined into a powerful blood-source Taoist weapon.

Li Mu's mind moved, and he put it into the Tianxuan Ring. He didn't care at all about the blood source evil thoughts and evil power contained in the Blood Marrow Crystal.

After advancing to the Fusion Realm and successfully integrating the Chaos Law Realm with the Chaos Dao Realm, Li Mu gained a deeper understanding of the Chaos Dao and the origin of chaos that he cultivated.

The origin of the great Dao in the immortal demonic energy of the Immortal Demon God contains the power of time and reincarnation, which makes it extremely difficult to deal with. As long as the origin is not destroyed, it can be reborn endlessly. Ordinary Mahayana Taoists can only be helpless and sigh in despair when encountering it.

The blood source contained in the Blood Path Marrow Crystal, or the immortal demonic energy of the Immortal Demon God, are all manifestations of the origin of their respective avenues; the origin of the avenue is the root of all things in the universe, and contains endless mysteries and power. The blood source demonic thoughts and Yin Sha power in the Blood Path Marrow Crystal are the original power of the Blood Path. The Blood Path, based on the blood of life, absorbs the vitality of all things and transforms it into its own power. The blood source demonic thoughts are the obsessions and desires that arise in the hearts of Blood Path practitioners when they pursue the ultimate power. These obsessions and desires condense into demonic thoughts, eroding the will of living beings and strengthening themselves.

The power of Yin Sha is formed when the Blood Dao practitioners absorb the evil energy between heaven and earth during their practice and transform it through special methods. It has a strong corrosive and destructive power, which can devour the vitality of living beings and transform it into the cultivation level of the Blood Dao practitioners.

In Li Mu's eyes, although the power of these demonic origins is strong, it is ultimately just a manifestation of the origin of the great way. There are ways to destroy and erase it, because what he cultivates is the Great Way of Chaos, which is the real source of ultimate power.

The Great Dao of Chaos is all-encompassing. Whether it is the years of the Immortal Demon Lord, the origin of the Great Dao of Reincarnation, or the Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, or even the origin of the Blood Path of Blood Resentment, they are just a tributary derived from the Great Dao of Chaos. Only the Great Dao of Chaos can transcend all paths.

Li Mu was able to use his cultivation level of the fusion realm to successively wipe out the clones of the Immortal Demon Lord, the Mahayana Taoist - Blood Grudge, and You Yuan's origin of the Dao. It was precisely because of his grasp of a trace of the origin of the Chaos Dao that he was able to see through the secret of their origin of the Dao and destroy them with extremely tiny force.

However, the cultivation level of the fusion realm is still too low, and the amount of chaos origin mastered is limited. The Immortal Demon God's body is an ancient existence, and his cultivation level is unfathomable. The condensation of the origin of the great way of time and reincarnation has reached an unattainable height.

If one were to face the Immortal Demon God's true body, even if one had mastered the secrets of the Great Avenue of Chaos, it would still be difficult to match the opponent.

In the end, everything depends on your cultivation!
Thinking of the difficulty of advancing to the next realm - Mahayana Daojun, Li Mu sighed and couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile on his face.

Although the Great Dao of Chaos is extremely powerful, the subsequent path to advancement is extremely difficult; unlike other great avenues, each realm of the Great Dao of Chaos is a chasm that requires practitioners to pay an unimaginable price.

The leap from the fusion realm to the Mahayana Dao Lord is not only an improvement in cultivation, but also a qualitative leap in the understanding of the origin of the Dao. As the source of all Daos, the origin of the Chaos Dao is profound, and the difficulty of climbing to the peak of the Dao is self-evident.

If it weren't for his innate magical power - plant spirit absorption, Li Mu would not have been able to gather the sources of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and the seven main ways in such a short time, practice the Time and Space Wheel Sutra, obtain the Time and Space Dao Source, practice puppetry, weapon refining, formations, alchemy, three thousand divine patterns,... and comprehend the common points of the three thousand great ways, laying a solid foundation for realizing the source of the Chaos Dao.

He did not just pursue the improvement of his cultivation, but instead divided his attention into the study and practice of various skills.

Puppetry allowed him to reach a new level of control over life force, weapon refining allowed him to have a deeper understanding of the nature of materials and the integration of power, array formations allowed him to learn how to use the power of heaven and earth for his own benefit, alchemy allowed him to gain insight into the mutual generation, mutual restraint and transformation between medicines, talisman making...;
The study and practice of these skills not only allowed Li Mu to steadily improve his cultivation, but more importantly, they broadened his horizons and allowed him to see the diversity and commonality of the Great Dao. The reason why the Great Dao of Chaos is so powerful is that it can accommodate all things and transform all forces into its own use.

However, after advancing to the Fusion Realm, Li Mu seemed to have reached a bottleneck, and felt unprecedented confusion and bewilderment about the next Mahayana realm; although he had mastered many skills and his understanding of the Great Dao of Chaos was becoming increasingly profound, the barrier from the Fusion Realm to the Mahayana Dao Lord was like a solid wall, difficult to cross.

"Master! Are you okay?"

Just as Li Mu was lost in thought, the Qingyue True Dragon transformed into a burly man, flew to him and asked cautiously.

"Elder Li!"

Xiao Shuang followed closely behind, looking at Li Mu with concern, also worried about the injuries he might get in this battle.

He was a Blood Dao Demon Cultivator at the peak of the Mahayana stage, but he was killed by Li Mu, a cultivator at the Fusion stage, in a very short time. Xiao Shuang couldn't help but worry that Li Mu had used some powerful secret method that overdrawn his cultivation and damaged his foundation.

Li Mu woke up and saw that all the monks were looking at him with concern and worry, and he couldn't help but smile.

"I'm fine. I just gained a lot from this battle, so I'm thinking about it for a while." Li Mu smiled and explained quickly.

Hearing this, Qingyue Zhenlong breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense spirit relaxed. He knew his master's strength very well, and since the master said it was okay, then there must be no problem.

Xiao Shuang also showed a look of relief. Her cultivation was higher than Li Mu's, and she could feel the powerful vitality in Li Mu's body, which showed no signs of decline.

"Elder Li, in this battle you killed a Blood Dao demon cultivator at the peak of the Mahayana stage. Your fame will surely shake the entire spiritual world." Xiao Shuang looked at Li Mu with admiration and couldn't help but compliment him.

"Yes! Master Li, not only is his weapon refining and formation unparalleled, but his combat power is also so strong that one can really admire him."

"Thanks for your timely support, otherwise, I would have waited!"

"Yes! I can never repay Master Li for saving my life!"

……

All the Void-Refining cultivators expressed their respect and gratitude to Li Mu one after another. Their eyes were full of admiration for Li Mu and they wished they could have a deeper friendship with him.

"You are too kind." Li Mu interrupted the cultivators' compliments with a smile. Then he thought of something and swept his mind to check the status of the Nether Water Sealing Array and the spiritual plants in the spiritual land. His nervous expression couldn't help but relax.

Fortunately, he arrived in time. Although the sealing formation was damaged, the core was not broken, and the spiritual plants in the spiritual land were only slightly affected and were not seriously damaged.

"Everyone, I have important matters to attend to, and I need to go to the Northern Territory for support immediately. This place is left to you. You must ensure the safety of the seal formation." Li Mu looked solemn, looking at the cultivators, and said goodbye to Qingyue Zhenlong.

Hearing this, all the cultivators nodded to show that they understood. The Nether Water Sealing Array had been invaded, and the situation in the Northern Territory was probably urgent. Li Mu had the strength, so it was natural for him to take responsibility.

Before he finished speaking, Li Mu used the Sky-Splitting Technique, and his figure flashed and disappeared instantly. (End of this chapter)
