Chapter 630 - 344: Ancient Teleportation Array (Part 2)
Li Mu was slightly stunned, his gaze fell on the visitor, and for a moment he found it hard to believe his eyes.
He hadn’t expected to see an old acquaintance today, dressed in a long green robe, with sword-like brows and bright eyes, a hint of indescribable melancholy between his brows. Time seemed not to have left much of a mark on his face, yet there was some undeniable weariness in his gaze.
The visitor was none other than Steward Elder Fang Yunjian of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect. They hadn’t met for over twenty years. The Fang Yunjian in his memory had a high-spirited Sword Intent and was full of vigor.
"Master Li, it’s been many years, how have you been?"
Led by Xue’Er, Fang Yunjian entered the inner hall, focused his gaze on Li Mu, and greeted him with a smile.
Watching Li Mu, Fang Yunjian’s expression remained calm, yet inwardly he was quite shocked. In just over twenty years, Li Mu’s cultivation had progressed from Mid-Stage Nascent Soul to Divinity Transformation Realm. On the way here, he had heard much about Li Mu’s feats: Five Elements Cultivation, unparalleled swordsmanship, Body Refinement capabilities rivaling a Tier Seven White Whale Demon Emperor, overcoming a Void Refining Cultivator across tiers, ... and during the Divinity Transformation Thunder Tribulation, he had subdued and refined the Tier Seven Tribulation Thunder Celestial Fire - Yin Yang Thunder Flame with his bare hands.
"Steward Fang, it has indeed been many years, you still look as splendid as ever!" Li Mu responded with a smile.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, they sat down in the main hall at Li Mu’s invitation, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed.
"Master Li, to be frank, today’s visit is by the Sword Master’s order, hoping for your assistance!" Fang Yunjian looked at Li Mu, directly getting to the point.
"Steward Fang, please speak frankly. Is the Sword Master seeking me for Artifact Refining? A Tier Seven Daoist Soldier is beyond my capabilities right now!" Li Mu expressed a hint of perplexity, indicating quickly.
Fang Yunjian shook his head, signaling: "No! It’s not about Artifact Refining, it’s about something else. The Sea of Ten Thousand Stars is far from the Central State Spirit Realm. To resist the Nine Demons Sect and Demon Abyss invasion, the Sword Master plans to set up an Ancient Teleportation Array in this region. However, several Array Masters are helpless against this Ancient Teleportation Array, so we hoped the Array Masters from your Tower would step in!"
Upon hearing these words, Li Mu fell into silence, his heart in a tangle.
Li’s Treasure Tower’s Array Master, isn’t that him!
Having Artifact Refining Technique at Grandmaster Realm was already striking enough; would revealing mastery in Array Formation Technique at the Grandmaster Realm be excessive?
Li Mu didn’t want to be overly conspicuous, instinctively wanting to find an excuse to refuse.
However, Li Mu suddenly recalled the future scenes he glimpsed through the Time Fortune Spirit Turtle’s abilities and felt this assistance seemed inevitable.
The Profound Celestial Sword Sect holds significant power and status within the Central State Spirit Realm. Helping them solve this problem could be a chance to make small requests, taking the opportunity to eliminate the lethal threat from the Nine Demons Sect and Demon Abyss, no doubt yielding immense benefits.
This help seems inevitable!
"Several Array Masters highly praised the Tower Protection Array of Li’s Treasure Tower. I wonder, Master Li, who set up your Tower’s Defense Array? Could you introduce me?" Fang Yunjian asked anxiously as he looked at the silent Li Mu.
Li Mu snapped back to reality, having made his decision, smiled lightly, and introduced: "Steward Fang, do not worry. Since the Sword Master requests, I should do my best to assist. Truth be told, the Tower Protection Array of Li’s Treasure Tower was personally set up by me."
"Master Li, are you serious?" Fang Yunjian looked at Li Mu with a face full of surprise, seemingly unable to believe his ears.
This is too incredible!
Fang Yunjian stared straight at Li Mu, as if he no longer recognized him.
Previously, he only knew Li Mu as an Artifact Refining Grandmaster, but hadn’t expected he was also proficient in the Array Skill, such an all-round talent is extremely rare.
As if he had anticipated Fang Yunjian’s reaction, Li Mu smiled slightly and explained: "Artifact Refining requires setting up Artifact Arrays, which have commonalities with Arrays, so I casually learned Array Formation Skill."
Pausing for a moment, Li Mu looked at Fang Yunjian, indicating: "However, I haven’t learned the Ancient Teleportation Array, so whether I can help is still uncertain! Steward Fang, this matter needs careful consideration!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Yunjian’s eyes showed a hint of disappointment but soon returned to calmness.
"It must be so, I wonder if Master Li has time at the moment. Sword Master Feng and several Array Masters are waiting." Fang Yunjian looked at Li Mu, inviting him.
Li Mu thought for a moment, then nodded: "In that case, I will go with you; I also want to see the Ancient Teleportation Array!"
Fang Yunjian nodded joyfully, relieved.
Thus, Fang Yunjian took Li Mu away from Li’s Treasure Tower and rushed toward the Celestial Spirit Island next to Ten Thousand Stars Island.
"Our sect’s residence is on Celestial Spirit Island next to Ten Thousand Stars Island. The allied forces from the Central State Spirit Realm, all major powers are stationed on this island." Fang Yunjian introduced the situation of Celestial Spirit Island while leading the way in front of Li Mu.
The two flew for about half an hour and arrived above Celestial Spirit Island. Below, Spiritual Qi enveloped, clouds swirled, buildings rose densely, and the Sword Tower soared into the clouds, presenting a bustling sight.
Then, Fang Yunjian talked about the situation of the South Wilderness Spirit Realm war with a heavy tone, full of worry.
The war in South Wilderness is disastrous, with heavy casualties. The Nine Demons Sect and Demon Abyssal Forces used underhanded tactics, enslaving the Southern Wilderness Demon Race, making them the frontline of the Demon Race’s assault. These former allies have now become the greatest enemies, causing significant shifts in the fate of the Southern Wilderness Demon Race. The local Human Race in South Wilderness Spirit Realm, whether mortal or cultivator, suffered tremendous losses.
