Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

Chapter 583 Return to the Southern Wilderness (Part 2)

As the discussion progressed, the atmosphere between Li Mu, Tian Shang and Kun Ling became more solemn and heated.

"The Dharma Domain I practice is a collection of the Five Elements. It is so vast that it is difficult to refine it to the extreme." Li Mu spoke slowly, with a trace of distress between his brows. He looked at the two of them and smiled bitterly: "I have tried to communicate the world between heaven and earth. The original law is smelted and solidified, but it always feels like there is an insurmountable barrier."

"Elder Li, the legal domain you have formed is extraordinary. Maybe you can try to make your legal domain a fertile ground for the laws of attraction, allowing the original laws to take root and sprout in it, and eventually merge into one." He stroked his white beard and said thoughtfully.

Kun Ling shook his head slightly and put forward another idea: "I advocate the resonance of the soul and the law, but it does not mean that the power of the physical body should be ignored. The physical body is the foundation of a monk, and even in the combined realm, its importance cannot be overridden. Don't underestimate it. Perhaps you can try to strengthen your physical body during practice, so that your physical body can become a solid container that carries the power of the law, thereby helping you break through the existing bottlenecks."

Hearing this, Li Mu's eyes gradually lit up, as if he had caught a glimmer of inspiration. He stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked slowly on the deck, and murmured to himself: "The physical body, the legal domain, the law... three Between them, we can perfectly integrate these three and enter the realm of unity?”

The Yin-Yang Five Elements Sutra practiced by Li Mu transformed into the Chaos Dao Sutra due to the concentration of the Chaos Law Domain. His physique was also upgraded from the Five Elements Dao Body to the Chaos Dao Body.

However, almost all of Li Mu's cultivation process relied on his innate magical power - spiritual energy absorption, to obtain a large amount of spiritual planting attributes to improve.

Over the years, Li Mu has planted a large number of fourth- and fifth-level spiritual plants, and a large number of sixth-level spiritual plants, which have matured one after another. He has harvested batch after batch of spiritual plants. The Chaos Dao Sutra he has cultivated has been perfected, and his cultivation has reached the peak of virtual refining and the Chaos Law Domain. Condensed to perfection, however, he was still unable to take the last step to advance to the final level.

Li Mu was deep in thought on the deck, and he had an epiphany. He could see the seascape flying by in front of him. He stopped and looked at the rough sea in the distance, and his heart was filled with an unprecedented understanding.

"The physical body, legal domain, and laws are independent of each other, but they complement each other. My Chaos Dao Body is close to the extreme, and the Chaos Legal Domain is even more complete. Only in the understanding of the Chaos Laws and the condensation of the Chaos Physical Body, it seems that There is still a lack of opportunity." Li Mu thought to himself, recalling his journey of cultivation, from the original Yin-Yang Five Elements Sutra to the Chaos Tao Sutra...

When Li Mu woke up from his meditation, it was already sunset, and the gorgeous sunset glow on the horizon was like a burning flame, reflecting on his determined face.

"Thank you two Taoist friends for your guidance. Li benefited a lot from this discussion and seems to have found a breakthrough direction." Li Mu turned around and looked at Lord Tianshang and Lord Kunling with a smile, and said gratefully.

"Kun also benefited a lot from this discussion!" Kun Lingzun smiled and said modestly.

"It is an honor for us to help Elder Li. Perhaps Elder Li came from behind and advanced to the union earlier than us!" Tian Shang said with great envy, sincerely envious of Li Mu's talent and cultivation speed.

The topic changed, and the three of them began to chat about the arrangements for their trip to the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm.

However, Li Mu is the supreme elder of the Xuantian Sword Sect and the person in charge of this trip. He has a respected position. The two of them are just stationed monks sent by the family, and their status is completely different.

Li Mu just made a general introduction. The two of them understood a little bit about the content, so they excused themselves to say goodbye.

"Elder Li, let's take our leave first." Master Tianshang said with his hands raised, and together with Master Kun Ling, they saluted and said goodbye to Li Mu.

"Okay! Let's talk about it another day!" Li Mu nodded with a smile and watched them leave.

After the two figures disappeared from sight, Li Mu turned around and returned to the cabin, sitting cross-legged. Then, he took out a pill bottle from the Tianxuan Ring, poured out a spiritual pill and took it, running the Soul Devouring Body Nurturing Technique with all his strength. Exercise and practice.

Time flies, and the huge fleet marches towards the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain for nearly a month. The outline of the continent finally gradually becomes clear in the first ray of morning light, indicating that they have finally arrived in the Southern Wilderness.

The fleet slowly slowed down on the vast sea, speeding towards the ancient city standing next to Tianzhu Mountain, and slowly approached the floating port known as the "City in the Sky".

The floating port is suspended in the sea of ​​clouds, gathering together Zhongzhou, Southern Wasteland, large and small, all kinds of spiritual ships, merchant ships, densely packed, and extremely majestic.

The demonic catastrophe two hundred years ago destroyed most of the local sects in the Southern Wilderness and resulted in numerous casualties among the monks. Today, the floating port is more prosperous than before, as if the demonic calamity two hundred years ago never left a shadow on this city in the sky.

With the arrival of the Zhongzhou fleet, the excitement of the floating port has reached a new peak.

Li Mu stood on the flagship of the fleet, looking at the floating airport getting closer and closer, its several times the size, and the scene of blooming flowers, and he was filled with emotions.

The busy scene of people coming and going on the floating port. Various spiritual ships and merchant ships shuttled over the port. The monks exchanged their spiritual practices or conducted business transactions. The entire floating port showed prosperity and harmony.

The fleet finally anchored in an exclusive area of ​​the floating port. Li Mu led Xuantian Sword Sect and a group of high-level monks from each family to leave the spiritual ship. Their advanced cultivation and extraordinary temperament attracted respect from the surrounding monks.

"Is that someone from Xuantian Sword Sect? So many masters from major sects gathered here!" A sharp-eyed low-level cultivator pointed at Li Mu and others who were walking down from the spirit ship, his tone full of amazement.

"What happened? So many major sects from Central Continent gathered in the Southern Wilderness? Could it be that an immortal palace was born?"

"Is there another war?"

"I haven't heard of it! Wasn't the Demon Abyss invaded last time and was driven away? Could it be that the Demon Tribulation has risen again? Has it revived from the ashes?"

...

With the appearance of Li Mu and others, the surrounding cultivators' discussions came one after another, mixed with surprise, confusion and uneasiness, but more of them were admiration and curiosity for the high-level cultivators.

"After a short rest, Deacon Fang, prepare to lead the team to follow me to the extremely sunny land!"

After returning to the Xuantian Sword Sect's station in the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm, Li Mu looked at Fang Yunjian and instructed.

"I understand!" Fang Yunjian nodded happily, and asked curiously: "Elder Li, where is this extremely yang sealed place?"

The location of the seven sealed places is a very core secret. Even Fang Yunjian only knows the location of four of them. This extremely yang sealed place is the most hidden one. After Li Mu reported it to the sect, Elder Qiu never revealed it to others.

Li Mu smiled mysteriously and said: "Deacon Fang, you have been to this extremely yang sealed place!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Fang Yunjian frowned slightly, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged in his heart, but he couldn't remember when he had been to such a place.

"Elder Li, did you remember it wrong? Although I have traveled to many secret places in the southern wilderness, I have never heard of this extremely yang sealed place." Fang Yunjian said doubtfully, with a gleam of curiosity in his eyes.

Seeing this, Li Mu smiled even more and explained slowly: "Deacon Fang, don't worry. This extremely yang sealed place is actually near the ancient city of Huanggu, hidden in the place where I practiced in seclusion before. Deacon Fang has come to find me many times!"

"You mean the 'Yin Yang Valley'?"

After Li Mu's reminder, a familiar scene suddenly flashed through Fang Yunjian's mind, and a look of sudden enlightenment flashed in his eyes, and he asked in surprise.

"Yes, it is the Yin Yang Valley." Li Mu smiled and nodded, and continued, "The Yin Yang Valley looks ordinary, but it actually hides mysteries. The extremely yang sealed place is hidden in a secret cave in the valley. The cave is covered by a powerful ban, and it is difficult to find its traces unless you are familiar with it."

Hearing this, Fang Yunjian was surprised and couldn't help but admire Li Mu's foresight more and more. He didn't expect that the Yin Yang Valley, which he had passed by many times, actually hid such an important secret.

"Elder Li, could it be that you had already discovered this extremely Yang Sealed Land at that time?"

Fang Yunjian looked at Li Mu's eyes and saw a hint of deep meaning, and couldn't help asking curiously.

Fang Yunjian knew all about Li Mu's abilities and his magical qualities. Since he joined Xuantian Sword Sect, he had witnessed Li Mu's many extraordinary ways of solving problems inside and outside the sect.

Li Mu smiled slightly, his eyes were deep, as if he had penetrated the mist of time and space and returned to the days of seclusion and cultivation.

"Deacon Fang misunderstood! The secrets hidden in Yin Yang Valley were only gradually discovered by me when I returned to the Southern Wilderness after I had achieved success in cultivation." Li Mu said slowly, with a hint of reminiscence and emotion in his tone, "When I was in seclusion and practicing, Yin Yang Valley was just a place for me to practice quietly, and I could not discover the secrets in it. As my cultivation level advanced to the Refining Void Stage, I sensed that there was something else in the valley!"

"So that's it!" Fang Yunjian smiled, but didn't believe it completely. With the lessons learned from the past, he only believed Li Mu's words three-tenths: "Elder Li, prepare the materials for the formation! I'll go and notify the others!"

Before Fang Yunjian finished speaking, his figure had already rushed out like an arrow from a bow, leaving Li Mu slightly stunned.

Li Mu smiled bitterly and shook his head. I guess he didn't believe it.

The next day, Li Mu, Fang Yunjian, half of the elite, a combined sword elder, and thirteen Refining Void cultivators flew to Yin Yang Valley.

Yinyang Valley, this ancient land forgotten by the world, once again exudes a mysterious atmosphere with the arrival of Li Mu and others.

When their figures passed through the clouds and slowly landed in the gray-black area, the surrounding scenery seemed to be frozen, and even time slowed down.

Outside the valley, the bare hills looked even more gloomy under the dim sky. The broken river channel was like a scar on the earth. The cold and yin power reached its peak here, and even the air froze into ice, making it difficult to breathe.

Li Mu stared at this familiar and unfamiliar land, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.

Fang Yunjian and others followed closely behind, their faces full of seriousness and tension. Facing this strange land, they dared not be careless at all.

Under the leadership of Li Mu, they went deep into Yinyang Valley, and the surrounding scenery became more and more desolate.

"What a strange place, Elder Li, is this extremely yang seal in this valley?" Elder Jian-Yun Yi looked at Li Mu and asked in surprise.

"That's right, extreme yang gives birth to yin. The outside of the valley looks desolate and dead, but it actually contains vitality. This Yin-Yang Valley is an excellent place where yin and yang meet between heaven and earth. It is also a special effect caused by the place where extreme yang is sealed." Li Mu's eyes were deep and he hurriedly explained.

Soon, Li Mu led everyone into the valley. The next moment, the valley was full of exotic flowers and plants, and the vibrant scene occupied everyone's field of vision. It was completely different from the desolate scene outside the valley. The valley was actually a vibrant scene. The dense forests are lush and green, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants are in full bloom, exuding bursts of fragrance. Birds sang happily on the branches, and the creek gurgled by, crystal clear, as if it was the purest music of nature.

“What a wonderful place!”

"What a mysterious place!"

"This is Elder Li's previous retreat? You really know how to choose a place!"

When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but praise. They didn't believe what they were seeing. They originally thought that the Yin Yang Valley would be a more eerie and terrifying place, but they didn't expect that there was another world and that the valley was so beautiful.

Li Mu smiled slightly and led everyone deeper. Then, he stopped at the foot of a seemingly ordinary mountain.

Then, Li Mu pointed to a place that seemed to be the same as the surroundings, and said: "This is it. This is the entrance to the land of the extreme sun seal. Everyone, next, I will set up a few magic formations again. I still need your cooperation!”

After hearing this, Fang Yunjian and others stepped forward to check. There was nothing unusual there, but Li Mu claimed that this was the entrance to the Sealed Land of the Extreme Sun.

Amid everyone's doubts, Li Mu took out a jade tablet, pinched the magic formula with his hand, and muttered something in his mouth. The jade tablet suddenly shone brightly, and a complex magic circle pattern slowly emerged in the air.

"This is an array card that I personally refined. It contains the dual magic arrays of 'Concealment Illusion Array' and 'Protective Barrier'." Li Mu explained, "The Concealment Illusion Array can cover up the real entrance and prevent outsiders from easily discovering it; the protective enchantment It can provide an extra layer of protection when we enter the sealed land."

As Li Mu's hand techniques changed, the magic circle pattern in the air suddenly split into two. One half turned into a light curtain, shrouding everyone in it, and the other half blended into the seemingly ordinary rocks at the foot of the mountain. It instantly became grotesque, as if it was distorted by an invisible force.

"Everyone, stand firm. I want to control the formation card, cancel the illusory formation, and reveal the real entrance!" Li Mu looked solemn, and quickly formed seals with his hands. The light on the jade card became more dazzling, and finally turned into a stream of light, hitting it accurately. The twisted rocks.

Just hearing a soft "boom", the illusion on the surface of the rock suddenly dissipated, revealing a deep cave entrance. There was a faint light flickering inside the cave, and a mysterious and powerful hot breath was revealed.

"This is the real entrance to the Land of the Extreme Sun Seal. It contains extremely dangerous restrictions. I hope that when you are stationed here, you will not rush into it. Otherwise, even the combined monks and Mahayana Taoists will be in danger of falling."

Li Mu took back the array cards, glanced at everyone, and introduced in a deep voice.

Hearing this, everyone was in awe. After they let go of their spiritual perception, they immediately confirmed that what Li Mu said was true. (End of chapter)
