I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm-Chapter 357 - 220: Xiaobai Awakens

Take advantage of its weakness, strike it down!

Li Mu extended his hand, summoning the Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon, Jade-Eyed Long-armed Ape, Xiaojin, and Xiaowa together; the formidable lineup rushed into the demon monkey group, eager to start the slaughter.

The Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon, weary from guarding the Spiritual Pool, immediately locked onto its target upon emerging.

With a dragon roar of "Ang," a cyan shadow flashed, directly pouncing towards the Tier Six Red Moon Demon Monkey King.

The Tier Six Red Moon Demon Monkey King responded in panic.

With a loud "Boom!" the two fiercely collided, overturning countless Red-Eared Demon Monkeys, rocks, and broken trees flew everywhere, the world seemed to change color.

The Jade-Eyed Long-armed Ape extended its six arms, forming golden fist shadows that hit every Red-Eared Demon Monkey, directly shaking them to death, hardly any could withstand a single blow.

Xiaojin seemed to compete with the Jade-Eyed Long-armed Ape’s efficiency, swinging its golden rod, exerting magic to control the golden long rod.

The golden long rod trailed long golden flames, striking the heads of Red-Eared Demon Monkeys.

"Pa-pa-pa," wherever the golden rod went, the heads of the Red-Eared Demon Monkeys exploded like watermelons, dying miserably.

For a moment, the speed at which the two demon apes slaughtered the Red-Eared Demon Monkeys was almost indistinguishable, they did not regard the Red-Eared Demon Monkeys as their kin, killing in excitement and starting to compete for targets.

Xiaowa was somewhat helpless, unable to grab the target before its eyes; its huge body burrowed underground, only able to target the panicked and fleeing Red-Eared Demon Monkeys.

Seeing the four Beast Tamers were able to control the situation and the battle would soon resolve, Li Mu did not intervene, instead flew towards the Bodhi Tree grove, using Earth Split Skill to extract each Bodhi Tree and store them in the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion.

After collecting the Bodhi Trees, obtaining seven hundred and seventy-five Bodhi Woods, significantly more than the intelligence provided by the Celestial Secret Pavilion, Li Mu was particularly satisfied and continued to gather surrounding Spiritual Objects.

A mass of Tier Three Ice Mist Spirit Grass, dozens of Tier Four Seven-leaf Spirit Ginsengs, thousands of Tier Three Profound Star Woods, ..., this mountain range stored a Top-Grade Spirit Vein, nurturing numerous Tier Three, Four, and Five Spiritual Objects, Li Mu gained abundantly, taking in all the Spirit Plants, transplanting them into the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion.

After finishing this task, Li Mu did not stop, the greatest spoils were still below the mountain range!

A Top-Grade Spirit Vein is extremely rare, the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion is equivalent to a small world, can’t naturally nurture Spirit Veins, and must supply many Spirit Plants; the consumption of Spiritual Qi is exceptionally high, so only the method of Spirit Vein extraction can move the entire Spirit Vein into the Treasure Mansion.

Li Mu made a sweeping gesture with his hand, over a thousand Spirit Swords flew out from the Nine Treasures Spirit Plant, covering an area of dozens of miles, encircling the core region of the Spirit Vein.

"Ha!"

Li Mu suspended in midair, hand executing Sword Techniques, with a loud shout, forming a Sword Domain; eighteen hundred Tier Four Spirit Swords burst forth like torrential rain, fiercely diving down.

"Puft-puft," one Spirit Sword after another pierced into the ground, instantly slicing the Spirit Vein and earth within dozens of miles, the heavens changed color.

Li Mu’s face paled slightly, having consumed a considerable amount of Spirit Essence; this Spirit Vein was much larger in range compared to the previous Top-Grade one extracted, and needed to restore a portion of Spiritual Power by taking a Tier Four Rejuvenation Pill and undergoing refinement.

Li Mu then fully injected Spirit Essence into the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, Divine Thought enveloping the Spirit Vein excavated from the Sword Domain.

Immediately, the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion unleashed a formidable suction force, opening a terrifying energy vortex, swallowing the sliced and separated earth, countless Spirit Woods and stone fragments surged, the heavens changed color.

Soon, a purple dragon-shaped Spirit Mist emerged, incredibly vibrant, engaging in a tug-of-war with the suction force of the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion; with its emergence, the density of Spiritual Qi in the surroundings surged several levels, Li Mu took a deep breath, instantly restoring his internal Spirit Essence to seventy-seven or eighty percent.

"A Transforming Spirit Vein?"

Li Mu’s eyes lit up, overjoyed, he continued to increase the supply of spiritual power to the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, which suddenly produced even greater suction, instantly absorbing the purple dragon-shaped Spirit Mist.

The Artifact Spirit of the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion appeared, seemingly burping contentedly, looking excitedly at Li Mu, seemingly preparing to say something.

Just then, as the purple dragon-shaped Spirit Mist disappeared, the world shook, a massive thundercloud swiftly gathered.

Following that, with a thunderous "Boom," a thick blue thunderbolt suddenly descended, fiercely striking the Artifact Spirit of the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion.

The appearance of the thundercloud had long been noticed by Li Mu, who promptly stored the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion in the Storage Compartment, releasing a piece of Tier Seven Spirit Ore - Meteor Crystal Core from the compartment to shield the Treasure Mansion from divine retribution.

"Zila!" The blue thunderbolt struck fiercely on the Meteor Crystal Core, the thunder light flashing, yet not leaving a single mark on the surface of the core.

Witnessing this scene, Li Mu couldn’t help but smile happily, his intuitive decision had spared him a major trouble.

This divine retribution was due to the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion confiscating the dragon-shaped Spirit Vein, resulting in the Heavenly Dao’s aversion and rejection towards it, hence the descending punitive thunder which, if received, would surely damage its Spiritual Energy, or even extinguish its Artifact Spirit.

Using the Meteor Crystal Core to endure made all the difference; firstly, it was merely a piece of Spirit Ore material, devoid of an Artifact Spirit, not to mention its inherent Attribute: indestructible and self-formed Heavy Realm, it fundamentally feared not the power of punitive thunder.

Um?

Why haven’t the thunderclouds disappeared?

Li Mu looked at the increasingly dense thunderclouds overhead, feeling perplexed!

Having employed the Golden Cicada sheds its shell stratagem, the Meteor Crystal Core had already replaced the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion in facing divine retribution, the thundercloud should have dissipated by now; however, not only did they not dissipate overhead, but they continued to merge into a vortex, no less than the Eight-Nine Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation he previously endured.
