Li Mu flew to the battlefield, where the bloody battle in the Spirit Valley was still ongoing.
Relying on the Seventh-Order True Spirit - Azure Thunder Beast of Purple Firmament, Yu Ling Sect's high-end combat power fought the Nine Demon Sect to a standstill.
With the collapse of the Undying Gathering Demon Formation, the demonic corpses fell one after another, and the battle among the low-level Cultivators had been decided, with the scales of victory tilting towards Yu Ling Sect.
The Nine Demon Sect's three Nascent Divinity Demon Lords, Black Bone, Blood Origin, and Green Ghost, had ambushed them with a formation before the battle began, their strength completely undiminished, while Yu Ling Sect's Venerable Lei Hong and Revered Qing Wei were trapped in the demonic formation, suffering severe injuries.
If it weren't for the Purple Azure Thunder Beast's thick hide and tough flesh, the high-end combat power would have already been defeated.
Yu Ling Sect's low-level Disciples watched the battle within the formation from afar, filled with worry, but unable to intervene.
Seeing Li Mu return to the battlefield alone, looking perfectly fine, while the Nine Nether Demon Lord was nowhere to be seen, the expressions of the several Soul Transformation Venerables from Yu Ling Sect and Nine Demon Sect changed simultaneously.
Venerable Lei Hong and Revered Qing Wei were overjoyed, while the three Nascent Divinity Demon Lords of the Nine Demon Sect had faces as black as the bottom of a pot, sensing something was very wrong!
"What's going on? Did Nine Nether run away?"
"Could it be that Yu Ling Sect has other reinforcements!"
"Should we retreat!"
"Damn it, what are Shi Yin and Nine Nether doing!"
"Could Nine Nether be trapped by the formation set up by that Nascent Soul cultivator?"
...
Black Bone, Blood Origin, and Green Ghost, the three of them, fought while transmitting messages to each other, discussing their options.
First, Shi Yin disappeared without a trace, and now Nine Nether was also gone; they had already realized something was amiss and, by common accord, began to consider retreating.
Just then, a streak of light appeared in the sky, hurtling towards the battlefield with lightning speed.
Both sides in the battle simultaneously looked up, not expecting reinforcements at this moment!
Whose reinforcements could they be!
The newcomers were two Soul Transformation Venerables and more than a dozen Nascent Soul True Lords, dressed in purple-blue Daoist robes and stepping on various strange Spiritual Artifacts.
"Hundred Refinements Sect!"
"It's people from the Hundred Refinements Sect!"
Demonic Lord Green Ghost's Divine Sense swept over them, his expression subtly changing as he cried out in surprise.
The Nine Demon Sect Cultivators looked at the sky, each showing an expression of fear and unease.
In contrast, the Yu Ling Sect Cultivators were all overjoyed, the arrival of their allies invigorating them.
Li Mu was slightly taken aback; why had the Hundred Refinements Sect come?
The two Sects were tens of thousands of miles apart, and now that the battle was almost decided, they certainly knew how to pick their timing!
"Go!"
The three Nascent Divinity Demon Lords of the Nine Demon Sect exchanged glances, each employing their own methods to force back Venerable Lei Hong, Revered Qing Wei, and the Purple Azure Thunder Beast, then used escape secret techniques, transforming into black mist and ghostly shadows that vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The Nascent Soul Demon Lords and Golden Core Demonic Cultivators of the Nine Demon Sect, seeing that their three Old Ancestors had fled, each used their own methods to make a swift escape.
"Where do you think you're going!"
"Stay here!"
"Demonic brats, all of you die!"
The Purple Azure Thunder Beast and Venerable Lei Hong struck out with hatred, vast swathes of lightning and Sword Qi shooting out, aimed directly at the surviving Demonic Cultivators of the Nine Demon Sect on the battlefield.
"Fellow Daoists of the Hundred Refinements Sect, please lend a hand to this Sect and help us eradicate the surviving Demonic Cultivators." Venerable Lei Hong flew up, addressing the two Soul Transformation Cultivators and more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators of the Hundred Refinements Sect with a voice like thunder.
The two Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Hundred Refinements Sect's eyes lit up as they recognized the figure of Sect Master Lei of Yu Ling Sect, and immediately led their Disciples to join the battle, sweeping away the surviving Demonic Cultivators.
The Demonic Cultivators of the Nine Demon Sect wished they could grow a few more pairs of wings on their backs to quickly flee this battlefield.
Soon, under the combined efforts of the Yu Ling Sect and Hundred Refinements Sect Disciples, the fleeing Nine Demon Sect Cultivators were annihilated one by one.
Li Mu silently landed on the battlefield with his sword, retrieving the scattered Battle Puppets, occasionally swinging his sword to kill some feigning death Demonic Cultivators, and collecting spoils of war.
With the intervention of the Hundred Refinements Sect Cultivators, this Sect-destroying battle finally came to an end.
The three Nascent Divinity Demon Lords had already escaped, and there was no way to pursue them. As for the remaining Nine Demon Sect Cultivators, Venerable Lei Hong and the others pursued them relentlessly, leaving no one alive.
The Yu Ling Sect Disciples who survived the ordeal were all ecstatic and cheered with joy.
In this battle, Yu Ling Sect suffered immense losses; many Nascent Soul True Lords were injured, some severely, and eleven Nascent Soul True Lords even perished in this campaign. More than half of the low and mid-level Cultivators, Golden Core and Foundation Establishment Cultivators, were killed or wounded.
However, at this moment, every survivor of Yu Ling Sect wore a joyful expression, feeling a sense of relief from being Reborn from desperation. To survive such an adversity was incredibly lucky!
The Hundred Refinements Sect Disciples and Yu Ling Sect Disciples began to clean up the battlefield, scavenge for spoils of war, and collect the remains of their fellow Sect members...
After retrieving the Battle Puppets, Li Mu continued to dismantle the Two Dragons Binding Immortal Formation and recall the Twin Dragon Formation Artifacts.
Just then, more than a dozen figures, led by the Purple Azure Thunder Beast, flew over and landed beside Li Mu.
"Dao Friend Li, your life-saving grace is beyond repayment. Please accept this bow from Li first!" Venerable Lei Hong looked at Li Mu gratefully, bowing without regard for his status.
Li Mu was startled, quickly reacting to pull him up: "Sect Master Lei, you exaggerate. The five Sects are connected as one, mutual assistance is only right!"
"Dao Friend Li, you are too modest. Everything was my fault; I was too eager for success and fell into the Nine Demon Sect's trap, putting all the Sect Disciples in a desperate situation. If you had not disregarded the danger to forcibly break the formation and rescued us without regard for your own safety, we might have been buried here today, and Yu Ling Sect would cease to exist. This kindness is greater than the heavens; Li and Yu Ling Sect will remember it always." Venerable Lei Hong looked at Li Mu with fervent eyes, speaking solemnly.
"Indeed. This battle was largely thanks to Dao Friend Li's help. If it weren't for you breaking the Grand Formation, and also luring away Nine Nether and Shi Yin, and at the crucial moment lending us a hand, even if the Fellow Daoists from the Hundred Refinements Sect had arrived, there would certainly be few survivors left in Yu Ling Sect, and the entire Yu Ling Sect would cease to exist. We would have no face to meet our Old Ancestors..." Revered Qing Wei's eyes were slightly red as he looked at Li Mu, speaking with profound gratitude.
The Purple Azure Thunder Beast looked at Li Mu with piercing eyes, praising him: "That's right, I also owe you a life. Whatever your needs, just state them, and I will definitely fulfill all your requests!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mu's eyes lit up slightly.
Since the Purple Azure Thunder Beast said so, a Seven-rank True Spirit is a treasure from head to toe. It shouldn't be too much for him to make some requests, right? Coincidentally, he had a sealed spiritual item that required True Spirit Blood.
With this thought, Li Mu's heart skipped a beat, but he maintained a polite smile on his face, showing no intention of taking advantage of his kindness.
Just then, True Lord Tianhong, with one arm severed and covering his wound, walked up to Li Mu, his face complex, and looked at Li Mu, solemnly expressing his gratitude: "Dao Friend Li, please forgive my previous disrespect. Your life-saving grace is beyond repayment. I am willing to bestow Heavenly Fire upon you!"
Li Mu's eyes lit up, looking at True Lord Tianhong in surprise.
Heavenly Fire?
Upon hearing True Lord Tianhong's words, the Cultivators of the Hundred Refinements Sect all had strange lights flash in their eyes and began to whisper among themselves.
"This person actually possesses Heavenly Fire!"
"I wonder what kind of Heavenly Fire it is!"
...
The two Soul Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Hundred Refinements Sect's eyes burst forth with dazzling light, and they couldn't help but move closer, their eyes fixed on True Lord Tianhong.
Heavenly Fire was also something the Hundred Refinements Sect had been diligently searching for.
The Hundred Refinements Sect originally cultivated the Dao through Artifact Refining. They were more proficient in Refining Skill than other major Sects. However, the more exquisite the Artifact Refining, the more Advanced the spiritual fire required.
Spiritual fire is not difficult to find, but Heavenly Fire is rare.
To Cultivate the Dao through Artifact Refining and refine a Lifebound Treasure, reaching the Soul Transformation Stage and above requires a six-tier spirit treasure. Refining it with ordinary spiritual fire is extremely difficult, unless one's Artifact Refining skills are exceptionally outstanding, otherwise, one needs a spiritual Heavenly Fire to assist, only then is success possible.
It is clear how important Heavenly Fire is to an Artifact Refiner!
The actions of the two Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Hundred Refinements Sect were naturally observed by Venerable Lei Hong and Revered Qing Wei.
Revered Qing Wei's brows furrowed slightly, and he quickly exchanged glances with the Purple Azure Thunder Beast.
They became vigilant, taking a slight step and shifting their bodies to shield Li Mu and True Lord Tianhong.
Although the Hundred Refinements Sect had provided rescue, they were grateful, but one must always be wary of others.
Heavenly Fire was related to the formation artifact of the Thunder Prison Grand Formation. Without Heavenly Fire, the commission for Li Mu to refine it might fall through.
Now that True Lord Tianhong was willing to give up the Heavenly Fire, the matter of commissioning Li Mu to refine the formation artifact was settled. This matter concerned the safety of the Sect, and no other accidents could be allowed to occur.
The vigilance of the three Soul Transformation powerhouses of Yu Ling Sect was noticed by the two Soul Transformation powerhouses of the Hundred Refinements Sect. Their brows furrowed, and they couldn't help but show displeasure.
Well, well! They had just saved Yu Ling Sect, and Yu Ling Sect immediately turned around and guarded against them like this?
The atmosphere between the two sides became extremely strange.
However, Li Mu was currently overwhelmed with joy, forgetting the potential crisis that the Hundred Refinements Sect might bring.
"Fellow Daoist Tianhong, you..." Li Mu's joy showed on his face; he had never expected such an unexpected gain.
True Lord Tianhong smiled calmly, saying: "Dao Friend Li, you have shown great life-saving kindness to Yu Ling Sect and to me. No amount of repayment would be too much..."
Venerable Tianhong paused, looking at Li Mu, and said with emotion: "I have possessed this Extreme Yang Heavenly Fire for nearly a hundred years, but even now, I cannot use it freely. Although it has been somewhat helpful to my Dao of Artifact Refining, I can still only refine fourth-tier Spiritual Artifacts. Such a rare spiritual item cannot display its true power in my hands. Perhaps it is Heaven's will, meant to be delivered to your hands through mine!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mu was overjoyed; his wish was finally granted.
Li Mu looked at True Lord Tianhong and expressed his solemn gratitude: "In that case, Li Mu thanks Fellow Daoist Tianhong for your painful sacrifice. I will do everything in my power to compensate for your loss."
Seeing Li Mu's words, True Lord Tianhong's last trace of reluctance in his heart also disappeared.
True Lord Tianhong smiled slightly and was about to take out the Heavenly Fire to give to Li Mu.
Just then, the Purple Azure Thunder Beast flashed its body and said in a deep voice: "The gifting of Heavenly Fire is a major matter. Doing it now is too hasty!"
As he spoke, the Purple Azure Thunder Beast gestured with his eyes towards other directions.
Li Mu and True Lord Tianhong immediately became vigilant and looked at the people of the Hundred Refinements Sect.
The two Soul Transformation Venerables of the Hundred Refinements Sect, disregarding everyone's gaze, flashed over and appeared beside Li Mu and the others.
Venerable Lei Hong and the others followed, blocking the two, and to avoid damaging the relationship between the two Sects, they greeted them with smiles: "Venerable Jiang Yan, Venerable Huang Gang, I am grateful that you specifically came to rescue this Sect. Please, both of you, come to the main hall for a discussion so I can fulfill my duties as host."
Venerable Jiang Yan and Venerable Huang Gang both snorted lightly, expressing their dissatisfaction with Sect Master Lei's earlier vigilance towards them.
Venerable Jiang Yan looked at Venerable Lei Hong and said bluntly: "Sect Master Lei, thank you for your kindness, but we have something to discuss right now and would like to talk with this True Lord first."
Venerable Lei Hong's expression turned ugly, and he sighed inwardly. As expected, he was a step too late. Such a rare spiritual item as Heavenly Fire, even a Soul Transformation powerhouse, found it hard to resist its temptation.
Li Mu frowned slightly, vigilantly looking at the two Venerable Deity Transformation of Hundred Refinements Sect; it seemed they intended to intervene in the Heavenly Fire dispute!
Looking at the two Transformation God cultivators walking towards him, True Lord Tianhong’s heart sank, and he immediately realized that his actions just now were very inappropriate, as he had revealed the matter of the Heavenly Fire in public.
“Dao Friend Li, I am truly sorry. After surviving the calamity, I was too excited and momentarily forgot to be cautious!” True Lord Tianhong looked at Li Mu helplessly, apologizing with a bitter smile.
“No worries!” Li Mu smiled and waved his hand.
When water comes, use earth to block it; when soldiers come, use generals to stop them. Li Mu was confident he could handle the two Venerable Deity Transformation of Hundred Refinements Sect.
Li Mu was very pleased that True Lord Tianhong immediately thought of repaying his kindness with Heavenly Fire after surviving the calamity.
Venerable Jiang Yan glanced at Li Mu, walked directly to True Lord Tianhong, and asked with a smile, “How should I address this one?”
“Greetings, Senior. This junior is Tianhong!” Venerable Tianhong performed a perfunctory bow and introduced himself.
“Hmm! If this Venerable One heard correctly, you possess a heavy treasure like Heavenly Fire, right?” Venerable Jiang Yan asked with a smile.
“That’s right, but I have already promised to give this Heavenly Fire to Dao Friend Li.” True Lord Tianhong nodded, looking at Li Mu to indicate.
“Oh! It hasn’t been given to him yet, has it! Are you willing to transfer the Heavenly Fire to this Venerable One? This Venerable One is willing to trade with you a fifth-tier top-grade Spirit Artifact and a Earth-Grade Artifact Refining Cultivation Technique from this Sect. If you don’t like them, feel free to propose any conditions you have.” Venerable Jiang Yan smiled faintly, looking at True Lord Tianhong to indicate.
“That’s right! If you are willing to give up the Heavenly Fire, I, on behalf of Hundred Refinements Sect, will specially grant you access to the Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm to help you lay the Foundation for Soul Transformation!” Venerable Huang Gang looked at True Lord Tianhong and added.
Alright!
The conditions offered by the two Venerable Deity Transformation of Hundred Refinements Sect were very tempting, and it seemed they were determined to obtain this Heavenly Fire!
Li Mu was not clear about the Heavenly Spirit Secret Realm, but when investigating information about Heavenly Fire, he had a slight understanding of the overall situation of Hundred Refinements Sect. Among the five Sect Alliances, Hundred Refinements Sect specialized in Artifact Refining, ranking second in overall strength.
They possessed extremely complete Artifact Refining Cultivation Techniques, were even capable of refining six-tier spirit treasure, and also had a Heavenly Fire that could be used for cultivation by all Disciples.
The entire Sect was overflowing with wealth and had very close ties with Wanbao Pavilion and Xuantian Sword Sect.
Therefore, Li Mu dared not entertain any delusions about the Heavenly Fire possessed by Hundred Refinements Sect.
Upon hearing the words of the two Venerable Deity Transformation, a hint of shock flashed in True Lord Tianhong’s eyes. The conditions they offered, he believed, no Artifact Refiner, no Nascent Soul cultivator, could refuse!
Soul Transformation Foundation and Artifact Refining Legacy were all things that Nascent Soul cultivator yearned for.
True Lord Tianhong’s expression struggled for a moment, then his face returned to calm, and he cupped his hands apologetically, “Two Venerable Lords, I am truly sorry. The kindness of saving a life is greater than the heavens. I have already promised to give the Extreme Yang Heavenly Fire to Dao Friend Li, and I cannot go back on my word.”
True Lord Tianhong’s reply was beyond the two Venerable Ones’ expectations!
Venerable Jiang Yan was slightly stunned and utterly puzzled. He actually refused such generous conditions?
“There are many ways to express gratitude for saving a life; why must it be with Heavenly Fire? I can provide whatever you need!”
“That’s right, Nascent Soul cultivator find it difficult to fully comprehend the true efficacy of Heavenly Fire. Tianhong, you should reconsider carefully!”
The two Venerable Ones looked at True Lord Tianhong, one after another, trying to persuade him.
Moreover, this person in front of them only had the strength of the Early Stage Nascent Soul, yet he was transferring the Heavenly Fire to him for use. Wasn’t this a waste?
Venerable Huang Gang’s expression turned stern, and he looked coldly at Li Mu, saying in a deep voice, “Heavenly Fire is an urgent necessity for Artifact Refining. It would be of no use if you took it. If you are willing to give up this Heavenly Fire, I will now give you two, no, three fifth-tier top-grade Spirit Artifacts as compensation!”
Heavenly Fire for three fifth-tier top-grade Spirit Artifacts?
Hmm!
This one is quite generous; others might hesitate.
However, Li Mu is not lacking in high-tier Spirit Artifacts!
Li Mu smiled and shook his head in refusal: “Thank you for your kindness, Senior, but Heavenly Fire is equally important to me, and I cannot bear to part with it. Furthermore, Li is also skilled in Artifact Refining and is not short of Spirit Artifacts!”
“You!”
Venerable Huang Gang didn’t expect a mere Nascent Soul True Lord to dare to defy him like this. The Spiritual Pressure of a Soul Transformation expert surged forth, pressing down on Li Mu.
The next second, an even more vast and powerful Demonic Qi shattered this ancient Spiritual Pressure into pieces.
“True Spirit - Thunder Beast!”
“Sect Master Lei, what is the meaning of this?”
Venerable Huang Gang and Venerable Jiang Yan’s faces flickered between shades, staring at the Purple Azure Thunder Beast that had intervened to block them, then looking at Venerable Lei Hong, they questioned in unison.
“Hmph, Hundred Refinements Sect did indeed render meritorious service this time by assisting in killing Nine Demon Sect, but if you think that this allows you to act presumptuously and show off your might in Yu Ling Sect, then you are gravely mistaken. Dao Friend Li is a great benefactor of this Sect, and you are not allowed to be rude to him! If you dare to extend your hand recklessly, don’t blame this Venerable One for being impolite.”
Before Venerable Lei Hong could respond, the Purple Azure Thunder Beast stood beside Li Mu, its eyes gleaming fiercely, and its powerful Demonic Qi spread overwhelmingly, speaking with a voice like a thunderous bell.
After devouring a large number of Nine Demon Sect Disciples and dozens of Golden Core and Nascent Soul Demonic Cultivators, the Purple Azure Thunder Beast’s injuries had recovered considerably.
The killing intent unleashed by the Seven-rank True Spirit was awe-inspiring, and its Aura was only stronger, not weaker.
Revered Qing Wei and Venerable Lei Hong exchanged glances, then both stood beside Li Mu.
Although Hundred Refinements Sect had rendered meritorious service this time by coming to their rescue.
However, even if they hadn’t come, the situation on the battlefield could have been controlled due to Li Mu’s full assistance, and Yu Ling Sect would have certainly been able to turn the tide. The arrival of Hundred Refinements Sect was merely icing on the cake.
With the protection of the Purple Azure Thunder Beast and Venerable Lei Hong and others, Li Mu felt much more at ease.
This hurdle was overcome.
As expected, facing two great Soul Transformation experts and a Seven-rank True Spirit, the two Nascent Soul Realm experts of Hundred Refinements Sect dared not act rashly, but they felt a surge of suppressed anger.
As a Sect Master, Venerable Lei Hong also did not want this matter to affect the relationship between the two Sects, so he advised, “Two benevolent brothers, I have not yet introduced Dao Friend Li’s identity to you all. He is Elder Li Mu of the Artifact Refining Peak of Qingxuan Sect. I presume you of Hundred Refinements Sect must have heard about him.”
At these words, Venerable Jiang Yan and Venerable Huang Gang were both stunned.
Compared to Nascent Soul True Lord, Nascent Soul Realm experts were more concerned about the movements of the Demonic Lord of Nine Demon Sect!
The fact that Tianjue Demonic Lord was killed by an Elder of Qingxuan Sect’s Artifact Refining Peak who had just Advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage caused a huge sensation among the five Sects.
Only a few months had passed since the incident, so how could people forget about it?
Knowing Li Mu’s identity, Venerable Jiang Yan and Venerable Huang Gang’s gazes towards him also changed, and they finally understood why the entire Yu Ling Sect was siding with him!
Hundred Refinements Sect paid great attention to such a being who could kill a Soul Transformation expert across Realms, and they had long since investigated his identity thoroughly.
It wasn’t a problem not to investigate, but upon careful investigation, they immediately discovered a piece of news that shocked the entire Hundred Refinements Sect. Being extremely close to Wanbao Pavilion, they obtained more intelligence than ordinary forces.
Fellow practitioners are rivals, and this Artifact Refining Guest Elder of Wanbao Pavilion, Great Master Li, was practically a household name in Hundred Refinements Sect.
This Artifact Refining Elder of Qingxuan Sect, Great Master Li of Wanbao Pavilion, had refined a massive quantity of fourth-tier and fifth-tier Spirit Artifacts, with an extremely high success rate in Artifact Refining.
Being able to refine fifth-tier top-grade Spirit Artifacts was already quite astonishing.
But what was even more astonishing was that the other party, at barely a hundred years old, had cultivated his Artifact Refining Skill to an extremely profound Realm, capable of refining fifth-tier Acquired Spirit Treasure.
He was simply a Prodigy!
Venerable Jiang Yan and Venerable Huang Gang truly couldn’t understand how this Li Mu cultivated?
He was actually so formidable.
Even the Saint and Saintess of the Central Continent Immortal Sect couldn’t achieve this level, could they!
After understanding Li Mu, Venerable Jiang Yan and Venerable Huang Gang’s attitudes had already changed.
“So it was Li Jianxian, forgive this Jiang’s rudeness!” Venerable Jiang Yan looked at Li Mu, nodded slightly, and reined in his ‘arrogant’ attitude.
Despite knowing Li Mu’s identity, Venerable Jiang Yan was unwilling to give up on the Heavenly Fire, so he stepped forward and said, “Li Jianxian, this Heavenly Fire is extremely important to Hundred Refinements Sect. If you are willing to give up the Heavenly Fire, we will gather the strength of the entire Sect to refine three six-tier spirit treasure for you.”
Three six-tier spirit treasure?
And they want to gather the strength of the entire Sect?
Li Mu curled his lips. Once the Yin and Yang Spirit Plants were successfully cultivated, he could then improve his Artifact Refining Skill. With the assistance of Heavenly Fire and the upgraded Eightfold Heavenly Fire Tempering Method, refining six-tier spirit treasure would be too easy!
Li Mu smiled and shook his head, firmly refusing: “I apologize! Heavenly Fire is extremely important to me, and I truly cannot part with it!”
Venerable Huang Gang sighed, rejected again. His face flickered between shades, having offered such a sky-high price, yet still being refused.
Seeing that the relationship between Li Mu and Hundred Refinements Sect had not eased because of his words, Venerable Lei Hong also felt quite helpless.
After much deliberation, Venerable Lei Hong continued, “Venerable Jiang Yan, Venerable Huang Gang, you two should not contend for the Heavenly Fire with Dao Friend Li. While Heavenly Fire is indeed important to your Hundred Refinements Sect, it is equally important to Dao Friend Li. To be frank, Dao Friend Li’s Dao of Artifact Refining has already reached its peak. With the assistance of Heavenly Fire, he is confident in refining six-tier spirit treasure! He is also willing to refine a Spirit Treasure Formation Artifact for this Sect.”
“What!!! six-tier spirit treasure!!!”
Everyone present was collectively astonished.
Venerable Lei Hong was very satisfied with the effect of his revelation, enjoying the surprised expressions of the crowd, and cast an apologetic glance at Li Mu, who wore a wry smile.
Now, only by revealing Li Mu’s Artifact Refining strength could he completely put an end to Hundred Refinements Sect’s intentions.
Li Mu chuckled, Lei Sect Master actually sold him out just to refine the Purple Azure Thunder Hammer?
After a long moment of shock, Venerable Jiang Yan and Venerable Huang Gang finally reacted, their attitudes subtly shifting, and their tone became respectful: “Li Jianxian, are you truly confident in refining six-tier spirit treasure?”
Facing the persistent pressure from the two Venerable Deity Transformation, and in order to obtain this Extreme Yang Heavenly Fire, Li Mu decided to follow the lead provided by Venerable Lei Hong and simply nodded in affirmation: “That’s right! If I have the assistance of Heavenly Fire, within thirty years, I will be confident in refining six-tier spirit treasure!”
Upon hearing this, Venerable Jiang Yan and Venerable Huang Gang exchanged glances, their moods becoming exceptionally heavy.
