I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 585 - 322: Treasure Mansion Promotion (Part 1)

After Xiaobai swallowed the Refining Void Primordial Spirit of Ancestor Yin Soul Demon, it began to feel drowsy.

Xiaobai’s eyelids gradually became heavy, as if they would close at any moment.

Seeing this, Li Mu was amused and exasperated, knowing that each time Xiaobai swallowed a powerful Primordial Spirit, it needed a period of sleep to digest and absorb it.

"How long will you sleep this time?" Li Mu asked softly, holding Xiaobai in his hand.

"Ji ji!" Xiaobai slightly opened its eyes, met Li Mu’s gaze, and responded softly.

Though Xiaobai’s response was somewhat indistinct, Li Mu understood its meaning, receiving a clear answer that it only needed to sleep for a short while.

Subsequently, Xiaobai nestled in his palm, curled its body, found a comfortable position, and fell completely into a dreamland.

Xiaobai had a vague understanding of the concept of "a short while," and Li Mu couldn’t help but find Xiaobai’s peaceful sleeping face amusing.

He hoped the little one wouldn’t sleep too long this time!

Li Mu smiled helplessly, unable to predict Xiaobai’s sleep duration, he could only let things take their course, and put it back into the Spirit-Taming Treasure Bracelet, ready to welcome the next customer needing a spiritual object appraisal.

After more than ten days, expecting another mundane day, however, the winds shifted drastically.

Li Mu, instead of Xiaobai awakening, was greeted by the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion releasing a powerful Artifact’s Might, causing intense promotion commotion.

The Artifact Spirit of the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, a tiny, spiritual Five-Colored Little Snake, flew from Li Mu’s body, painfully soaring back and forth in the air, radiating a strong Five-Colored Spiritual Light, brilliant and dazzling.

Waves of powerful Artifact’s Might rippled out in all directions, transforming the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power, soon spreading beyond Li’s Treasure Pavilion.

Li Mu’s face instantly changed, quickly forming array decisions, activating numerous protective arrays within Li’s Treasure Tower, concealing the spirit light emitted by the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, simultaneously ordering Xue’Er, and Shopkeeper Liu to close the shop and refuse visitors in haste.

The critical moment of a Tier Seven Grotto Heaven Spiritual Treasure advancing to a Tier Eight Grotto Heaven Treasure was not a matter of a day or two, and meanwhile, whether the Artifact’s Might released during this period would trigger an Artifact Tribulation was unknown.

Next, if the spiritual might generated by the Treasure Mansion’s promotion cannot be controlled within an appropriate range, a mishandling could result in unthinkable consequences.

In no time, Li’s Treasure Tower was in chaos, all startled by the sudden emergency.

Fortunately, Li Mu handled it properly, swiftly evacuating guests from the Treasure Pavilion, activating a powerful Protective Array, temporarily stabilizing the uncontrollable situation.

However, the street where Li’s Treasure Tower was located, being the busiest main avenue of Ten Thousand Stars Island, had many passersby and cultivators.

Following the powerful spirit fluctuation from Li’s Treasure Tower, the once bustling street suddenly became somewhat peculiar, with loafing cultivators halting, all eyes fixated in one direction.

Earlier, many cultivators sensed the potent magical treasure spirit light emanating from Li’s Treasure Tower, the kind of soul-stirring aura, seemingly from a Primordial Ancient Beast, or the Chaos Qi of Heaven and Earth’s inception, vast as the ocean, sharp as a blade, the powerful Artifact’s Might aura stunned numerous cultivators, leaving them baffled.

Yet, even more astonishing was Li’s Treasure Tower’s abrupt closure to guests, the strong array activating, turning the once lively shop eerily quiet, shrouded in dense mist, isolated from the world.

Simultaneously, mysterious auras emanated from the tower, surrounding the entire building, forming a formidable Defense Array, terrifying array power spreading around like an abyss, seeming to engulf any prying, making people fearful.

The extraordinarily rare occurrence at Li’s Treasure Tower instantly drew the heightened focus of nearby cultivators and passersby, with high-level cultivators arriving successively from all directions, occupying advantageous positions, peering at Li’s Treasure Tower, engaging in heated discussions.

"What was that just now? Such a powerful magical treasure fluctuation!" a young cultivator exclaimed amidst the crowd, his face full of astonishment and curiosity.

"Indeed! I felt it too. Li’s Treasure Tower is truly incredible! They’ve got another top-grade spiritual treasure!" a middle-aged cultivator chimed in, his eyes flashing with greed.

"That intense artifact spirit fluctuation, it seems like a Tier Six Spiritual Treasure promoting to a Tier Seven Dao Artifact!" an elderly Nascent Soul cultivator speculated thoughtfully.

"A Tier Seven Dao Artifact? My heavens, Li’s Treasure Tower is going to prosper now!" Upon hearing this, a young Golden Core cultivator couldn’t help but exclaim, his tone filled with envy and jealousy.

"No wonder Li’s Treasure Tower is making such a fuss, activating the Tower Protection Array. Who knows what kind of array it is! The killing intent is terrifying!" a Nascent Soul female cultivator stared fearfully at the terrifying array power emanating from Li’s Treasure Tower, trembling.

...

The cultivators gathered around Li’s Treasure Tower whispered and speculated variously, yet no matter how they guessed and discussed, they couldn’t uncover the truth, with Li’s Treasure Tower becoming a puzzle, deeply confounding everyone.

"A Five Elements Array? No, though this aura contains the mystique of the Five Elements, a Five Elements Grand Array is usually versatile, with its array power relatively gentle, conveying an essence of endless life. However, this array before us, though it also has traces of the Five Elements, the killing intent within is much more intense,..." hurriedly arrived a Divinity Transformation Elder with silver hair and a ruddy complexion, scrutinizing the flickering array patterns around Li’s Treasure Tower with deep contemplation and amazement.
