Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

Above the Tribulation Platform, after the thunderclouds dissipated, the sky became clear again and sunlight penetrated the clouds.

Li Mu stood in the air, looking at the Chaos Spirit Banner which had successfully survived the weapon calamity and had been reborn. The spirit banner swayed gently, as if announcing its new life to the world. The visible and hidden patterns on the weapon contained endless power.

Looking at this scene, Li Mu's lips curled up into a satisfied smile.

The Chaos Spirit Banner moved and turned into a ray of spiritual light and flew to Li Mu. The banner cloth fluttered continuously, as if celebrating something.

"Master!" Li Mu immediately sensed a delicate, tender voice. It was the call of the newborn spirit of the Chaos Spirit Banner. The voice was crisp and pleasant, carrying a hint of newborn innocence and joy, which made Li Mu feel a warm current surge in his heart.

Li Mu stretched out his hand and gently stroked the glittering banner. His fingertips could feel a gentle yet powerful fluctuation of power, which was the unique soul resonance of the Chaos Spirit Banner.

At this moment, the thunderclouds in the sky completely dissipated, and a long humming sound was followed by a clear and solemn sound, as if it was the recognition and blessing of Heaven for Li Mu's successful refining of the Chaos Spirit Banner. The surrounding space seemed to tremble, and traces of spiritual energy from heaven and earth spontaneously gathered and swirled around Li Mu and the Chaos Spirit Banner, forming a breathtaking spectacle.

Li Mu's heart moved, realizing that this was a blessing from heaven, and he quickly guided the gathered spiritual energy, integrating part of it into himself to enhance his cultivation, and injecting the other part into the Chaos Spirit Banner to further stabilize its spirit and repair the damage.

When everything returned to calm, Li Mu felt the surging power in his body and the closer connection between it and the Chaos Spirit Banner. With joy flashing in his eyes, he stared at the Chaos Spirit Banner.

Innate magical power - Under the ability to identify all spirits, the attributes of the Chaos Spirit Banner were all presented in Li Mu's eyes.

【Chaos Spirit Banner】

[Rank: Eighth-level Ultimate Dao Weapon]

[Features: Power of Chaos, Endless Reincarnation, Unity of All Things, Chaos Domain, Seal All Things, Summon the Spirit of Chaos]

[Status: Successfully survived the Heavenly Dao weapon calamity, weapon spirit is initially formed, the power of chaos is surging, and it contains endless potential. ]

【It is made of high-level spiritual materials such as star core gold as the core, ten thousand year magic vine as the pole, eighth-level bone-eroding Yin wood, star fantasy fir, Taiyan Golden Lotus, Xuanyin Yin crystal, and Wuding Black Water. After being calcined by the fire of chaos, the power of chaos reshapes the array base, and is laid with the Yin-Yang Five Elements Hunyuan array, and finally merged with thirty-two chaos patterns. The Chaos Spirit Banner not only has the sharpness of gold, the vitality of wood, the fiery of fire, the flexibility of water, and the thickness of earth, but also contains the principles of yin-yang balance and the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements. It can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at will, transform the power of chaos, and exert unimaginable power. Its instrument spirit is initially formed and is connected with Li Mu's mind, coexisting and prospering together. 】

Li Mu felt the powerful aura emanating from the Chaos Spirit Banner and an indescribable excitement and pride welled up in his heart. The Chaos Spirit Banner had surpassed his initial expectations, reaching the peak of an eighth-level Taoist weapon and touching the threshold of the ninth level.

Li Mu's mind moved, and he took the Chaos Spirit Banner into his body. He turned around and put away the weapons that were spread around the Tribulation Platform. All the elders and disciples of the Seven Profound Sect immediately appeared before him.

Lin Maoshan was the first to bow and greeted eagerly: "Disciple, hello to the Master!"

"Congratulations to Master for training a supreme divine weapon!"

Zhao Tianchen, Su Hongxiu, Liu Yuqian, Xiao Qingyun and others bowed and congratulated in unison.

"Greetings to the ancestor!"

The disciples of the Qixuan Sect also shouted in unison, their faces filled with excitement and admiration. They knew that Li Mu had refined an extraordinary Taoist weapon this time, which brought about a terrifying weapon disaster.

"No gift!"

Li Mu smiled and nodded, his eyes sweeping over everyone gently.

"Deputy Sect Leader, Elder Qin and the others haven't come out of retreat yet!" Li Mu looked at Lin Maoshan and inquired about the situation of several other important elders in the Qixuan Sect who were in retreat.

Lin Maoshan hurriedly stepped forward and answered respectfully: "Reporting to Master, Senior Qing, Elder Qin and the others are still in seclusion. They are all trying to break through the bottleneck of their cultivation. I'm afraid they won't come out in the short term."

Li Mu nodded in understanding. It is not so easy to advance from the Void Refinement Realm to the Fusion Realm. What's more, Qing Yangzi is a body that has been rebuilt by the soul. Elder Qin and Fang Shixin have average foundations, and the quality of their practiced skills is not high. If they want to make further progress, they will naturally need more time and opportunities.

"It's okay, just let them continue to retreat. You can't slack off in your practice. You must work harder to practice and improve your strength." Li Mu's eyes swept over Lin Maoshan, Zhao Tianchen and others, and saw through their strengths and weaknesses at a glance.

The seven disciples were selected by him personally. They all have outstanding qualifications and potential. Lin Maoshan practiced all five elements and also served as the sect master. His cultivation was a little weak, but he had a strong mind and outstanding leadership. He was the mainstay of the sect's stability. Yu Zhao Tianchen had an outstanding gold spiritual root and had made some success in his cultivation, but his state of mind still needed to be honed...

"Lin Maoshan, as the sect leader, you have a heavy responsibility and your cultivation is a little behind. You should find a suitable person, someone who can put down the burden and practice in seclusion." Li Mu looked at Lin Maoshan and reminded him.

Hearing this, Lin Maoshan looked solemn and nodded with a wry smile: "Disciple understands, but the position of the sect leader is a heavy responsibility, and it is difficult to find a suitable candidate to take over temporarily."

"You can arrange it yourself!" Li Mu smiled and said something else, not intending to continue this conversation. He turned his gaze to Zhao Tianchen, thinking of something, and then signaled: "Tianchen, you have outstanding gold spiritual roots, and your cultivation progress is acceptable. However, you must not rush for quick success on the road of cultivation. You need to proceed steadily, sharpen your mind, and go out of the sect to gain some experience!"

"Experience? Please give me some guidance, Master!" Zhao Tianchen's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard it, and then turned into anticipation.

Li Mu smiled and nodded, saying, "You can go to Wanbao City and hand over a batch of spiritual objects to General Manager Wan for auction. The journey is not far. I see that you have made some progress in your cultivation. You can take this opportunity to go out and gain some experience, sharpen your mind, and increase your knowledge."

As he spoke, Li Mu looked at the others and said to Su Hongxiu, "Hongxiu, you should go with Tianchen! The auction in Wanbao City is very lively."

Hearing this, Su Hongxiu showed a hint of surprise on her face. She had long wanted to go out for training and gain more experience. Now that the master had personally asked her to go with Zhao Tianchen, this was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "Disciple obeys!" Su Hongxiu bowed, unable to hide her excitement.

Zhao Tianchen also bowed and looked at Li Mu gratefully: "Thank you for your cultivation, Master. I will live up to your expectations and complete the task successfully."

Li Mu nodded with satisfaction, took out a token from his sleeve, and handed a storage ring to Zhao Tianchen: "This is my guest token in Wanbao Pavilion. The storage ring contains the spiritual objects to be auctioned. When you arrive at Wanbao Pavilion with this token, someone will receive you."

Zhao Tianchen took the token and storage ring with both hands and bowed respectfully: "Disciple will remember Master's teachings."

Afterwards, Li Mu explained some details and precautions, asking Zhao Tianchen and Su Hongxiu to be careful.

"Master! What about us!" Liu Qingyun Liu Qingyun couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation when she saw that Master Li Mu had made some arrangements for Zhao Tianchen and Su Hongxiu. Like several other disciples, she was eager for the opportunity to go out and gain experience to improve her cultivation and knowledge.

"Don't worry, everyone has their own opportunities and paths of experience. Tianchen and Hongxiu went to Wanbao City this time because their cultivation and character have reached the point where they can go out for experience. You and I also have our own plans."

"Yuqian, Xiaoyun, your cultivation has reached a bottleneck and you need to undergo some combat training. Take my order and go to Li's Treasure Pavilion to ask Manager Huang to arrange your positions."

……

Li Mu instructed Liu Yuqian, Xiao Qingyun and other disciples one by one, and gave valuable suggestions based on their respective practice characteristics and bottlenecks. At the same time, he arranged for them to undergo different training and practice.

After sending away a group of eagerly awaited disciples, Li Mu turned around and walked towards the sect's treasury, preparing to rebuild the Five Elements Transfer Array and enter the special space of the Chaos Sealing Array to use the array to thoroughly refine the Chaos Spirit Banner.

The Chaos Spirit Banner successfully survived the weapon calamity and was promoted to an eighth-level ultimate Taoist weapon. It contained powerful power of the origin of chaos. Controlling this banner could not only double Li Mu's combat power, but he could also use it for cultivation, making the originally obscure laws of chaos a little clearer, which would be of immeasurable help to Li Mu's future improvement in cultivation.

Stepping into the sect's treasury, Li Mu's eyes quickly locked onto the defective Five Elements Transfer Array. This array was the core secret of the Qixuan Sect and was a sub-array of the Seven Gods Sealing Yin and Yang Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array. With the help of the power of the five elements of heaven and earth, it achieved short-distance space transmission and was the key to the special passage into the Chaos Sealing Array.

Li Mu took out the matching five-element spirit stones with ease. With his hands flying, the five-element spirit stones were accurately embedded into the formation diagram. Bursts of light flashed, and the power of the five elements intertwined in the air to form a gorgeous picture.

Li Mu tapped his fingers lightly, and complex array patterns merged with his movements, so that the entire treasure house space was shrouded in a five-element array force.

Finally, as the last array pattern fell, the Five Elements Translocation Array suddenly lit up, forming a dazzling space channel that led directly to the special space of the Chaos Sealing Array. Li Mu took a deep breath, feeling the surging power of the Chaos Origin in his body, and resolutely stepped into the channel.

After a dizzying moment, Li Mu arrived at the special space of the Chaos Sealing Array, a chaotic world filled with violent chaotic energy.

If an ordinary cultivator entered here, he would probably be torn into pieces by this powerful force in an instant, but Li Mu was like a fish in water. The chaotic force surrounding his body merged with it, and his chaotic body was revealed, which gathered the raging chaotic energy and made it orderly.

The next moment, the Chaos Spirit Banner seemed to sense something and flew out of Li Mu's body, transforming into a small spirit whale, swimming in the chaos. The spiritual light of the origin of chaos flowed on the whale's body, and it seemed to be guiding the surrounding chaotic spiritual power to be refined in a more refined direction.

Seeing this, Li Mu secretly admired in his heart that the Chaos Spirit Banner was not only connected to his mind, but it seemed to have its own consciousness and could independently operate certain advanced laws of chaos.

Li Mu took a deep breath, and the power of chaos surged in his body, establishing a closer connection with the Chaos Spirit Banner, and began the real refining process.

Time seemed to have lost its meaning at this moment. Li Mu was completely immersed in the process of refining, forming a wonderful resonance with the Chaos Spirit Banner, the Chaos Space, and the heaven and earth. He became a part of the chaos, feeling the mystery of chaos, and constantly imprinting his will on the chaos.

During this process, Li Mu seemed to be in the world at the beginning of chaos, witnessing the birth and evolution of the five elements of heaven and earth with his own eyes. His understanding of the laws of chaos also deepened to a new level. The chaotic magic power in his body became purer and more powerful, and there was a tendency for a breakthrough in his cultivation realm.

As his understanding of the laws of chaos deepened, the aura emanating from Li Mu's body became more ancient and profound, embracing everything, yet extremely sharp, able to see through nothingness, and his state of mind also underwent subtle changes...

The Chaos Spirit Banner swam in the chaos, and the chaotic spiritual power around the whale's body was refined to be purer and purer, turning into strands of Chaos Origin, which were slowly injected into Li Mu's body. These origin powers circulated in his body, nourishing his flesh and blood, and his soul, making his physical strength and soul grow quietly.

It was unknown how long it had passed. When Li Mu opened his eyes again, his eyes were chaotic and extremely deep. His practice was interrupted.

A subtle and indescribable wave suddenly came from the depths of the Chaos Sealing Array, interrupting Li Mu's practice.

This fluctuation was completely different from the chaotic power he had sensed before. It carried an ancient, vicissitudes, and even a sense of crisis, as if it was some kind of call or warning left over from the beginning of chaos.

Li Mu's heart trembled, and he immediately collected his mind and focused his attention completely on this abnormal fluctuation. The chaotic magic power in his body surged, and the connection between it and the Chaos Spirit Banner became closer, as if the two together formed a sensitive detection network, trying to capture and analyze the source and nature of this fluctuation.

As the exploration deepened, Li Mu gradually discovered that this fluctuation did not originate from within the Chaos Sealing Array, but came from the edge of the array, or even from the chaotic void farther away. It was a sign that a drastic change had occurred in the Chaos Sealing Array.

Li Mu quickly extended his spiritual sense and peeked at the end of the Chaos Sealing Array. Li Mu's spiritual sense captured a picture that shocked him.

At the end of the Chaos Sealing Array, in the vast chaotic void, a tall and majestic figure clad in a black robe stood, surrounded by an extremely dense and terrifying demonic aura. He led a huge army of the Demon Abyss and launched a fierce attack on the Chaos Sealing Array.

Those demon soldiers and demon generals of the Demon Abyss army are powerful demons and demon leaders. They slaughtered all living things and built altars of bones, flesh, blood, and dead souls. The sacrifices brought out the evil power and the demonic energy. Along with the wailing and despair of countless creatures, under the leadership of the Immortal Demon God, they gathered into a terrifying force that could shake the heavens and the earth, constantly impacting the Chaos Sealing Array. The entire chaotic void seemed to be trembling, and it seemed difficult to stop this power.

In addition, with the help of the power of the Chaos Spirit Banner, Li Mu discovered another anomaly in the Chaos Sealing Array. (End of this chapter)
