Li Mu was immersed in the vast information of the Seven Absolutes Pill Manual; the characteristics and refining methods of the six Seven-Rank Dao Pills appeared in his mind one by one.
After he completely inherited and learned the six Dao Pills, the last hidden Dao Pill appeared in his Sea of Consciousness.
The Seven Absolutes Dao Pill requires the successful refining of six Seven-Rank Dao Pills: Reincarnation Dao Pill, Five Elements Dao Pill, Taiyi Dao Pill, Limitless Dao Pill, Soul Return Dao Pill, and Creation Dao Pill, and then perfectly fusing them to be successfully refined.
Li Mu’s breathing quickened slightly, and the shock in his heart was beyond words.
He had thought that the six Seven-Rank Dao Pills were already an incredible gain, but he never expected that the Seven Absolutes Dao Pill could fuse the six Dao Pills to refine an even more Heaven-Defying Eighth-Rank Saint Pill!
“Seven Absolutes Dao Pill… six pills in one!” Li Mu murmured, a fervent light flashing in his eyes.
This Seven Absolutes Dao Pill was by no means ordinary; it might even help him Break through his cultivation Bottleneck and advance to Great Vehicle Dao Lord.
However, Li Mu also knew that the difficulty of refining the Seven Absolutes Dao Pill far exceeded his imagination.
He wondered how many of the Spiritual Plants needed to refine the six Seven-Rank Dao Pills he could gather with his current Spiritual Plant reserves.
Li Mu’s Divine Sense entered the tianxuan ring, sweeping through it repeatedly, carefully checking his high-grade Spiritual Plant reserves.
The tianxuan ring was refined from the profound sky spirit pearl and spirit void realm sand, two Seven-Rank Spiritual Materials.
The profound sky spirit pearl naturally formed thirty-six heavens, each containing unique space Law, while the spirit void realm sand totaled ninety-seven thousand eight hundred and sixty Cell, with each grain of realm sand containing a tiny space.
Within these thirty-six heavens, space layers upon layers, like an endless labyrinth, and each grain of spirit void realm sand was like an independent miniature storage space, hiding countless treasures.
The main Spiritual Plant required for the Reincarnation Dao Pill, “reversing death spirit grass,” stood quietly in the third heaven of the tianxuan ring.
Its leaves were slender and purplish-pink, with seventeen leaves, each filled with Divine Power.
The stem was straight and tough, and at the top of the Spiritual Plant, a delicate flower bloomed, its petals a deep purple, emitting a faint luminescence.
Yin spirit Qi lingered, exuding powerful Divine Soul Power, its spirituality confined by powerful space-time Power, its spiritual nature fixed.
There were thirteen such plants, seven of which were mature, enough for seven refining attempts.
The Five Elements Spiritual Plants required for the Five Elements Dao Pill were the most numerous.
The seven Yin and Yang Five Elements Secret Realms, after ten thousand Years of Seal, had an extremely large quantity of high-grade Spiritual Plants, with extremely high medicinal ages, only lacking the Opportunity to evolve into plant spirits.
At the collapse of the Seal Grand Formation, Li Mu took the Opportunity to collect a large amount of Six-Rank, Seven-Rank, Five Elements Yin and Yang Spiritual Plants.
Therefore, the high-grade Spiritual Plant reserves needed for the Five Elements Dao Pill were extremely abundant, capable of refining hundreds or even thousands of pills.
Spiritual Plants needed for the Taiyi Dao Pill: essence of grand unity, none, need to find a way to acquire.
Nine-turn Spirit Lotus: 5 flowers, sufficient quantity.
Purple Cloud Divine Wood: 3 pieces, limited quantity.
Auxiliary Spiritual Plants: Other auxiliary Spiritual Plants are complete, but essence of grand unity is the biggest problem.
Spiritual Plants needed for the Limitless Dao Pill: limitless qi: none, ten thousand year ice heart: 1 piece, rare quantity.
ten thousand year earth vein stalactite: none, not yet found.
Auxiliary Spiritual Plants: Other auxiliary Spiritual Plants are complete, but the main Spiritual Plants are severely missing.
Spiritual Plants needed for the Soul Return Dao Pill: Nine-turn Spirit Grass: limited quantity, only 2 plants.
Life Origin Essence: needs to be extracted temporarily, will consume one's own Origin Qi.
Auxiliary Spiritual Plants: Other auxiliary Spiritual Plants are complete, the scarcity of Nine-turn Spirit Grass is the main problem.
Spiritual Plants needed for the Creation Dao Pill: nine-leaf azure lotus: none, not yet found.
Auxiliary Spiritual Plants: Other auxiliary Spiritual Plants are still available, but the main Spiritual Plants are severely missing.
Li Mu’s Divine Sense continuously swept through the tianxuan ring, silently calculating in his heart.
Although his high-grade Spiritual Plant reserves were quite abundant, there were still many missing Spiritual Plants needed to refine the six Seven-Rank Dao Pills, especially rare items like limitless qi, nine-leaf azure lotus, and ten thousand year earth vein stalactite.
“essence of grand unity, limitless qi, nine-leaf azure lotus, ten thousand year earth vein stalactite…” Li Mu muttered the names of these rare Spiritual Plants, quickly thinking about possible acquisition methods in his mind.
essence of grand unity is one of the purest Origin Qi between Heaven and Earth, usually only found in certain ancient ruins or places where Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is extremely rich.
nine-leaf azure lotus and ten thousand year earth vein stalactite, though rare, are not entirely traceless.
nine-leaf azure lotus typically grows in extremely cold regions and requires nine cycles of flowering and fruiting to mature, while ten thousand year earth vein stalactite is formed from the condensation of earth vein essence, often deeply hidden underground, requiring special means to collect.
Just as Li Mu was worrying about the missing Spiritual Plants, his gaze suddenly fell upon Wan Gu Yu’s storage ring.
As the behind-the-scenes big shot of the Wanbao Pavilion, the Spiritual Materials, Medicinal Pills, and Magic Treasures in his storage ring were all extremely rare treasures; perhaps these Spiritual Plants and rare Spiritual Materials were also there.
Li Mu extended his Divine Sense into Wan Gu Yu’s storage ring, searching carefully.
A moment later, a hint of joy appeared on Li Mu’s face.
Indeed, in this storage ring, he found several urgently needed rare Materials.
“Taiyi Essence Stone! I didn’t expect there to be an essence stone containing essence of grand unity here!” Li Mu’s heart stirred, and he took out the essence stone that emitted a faint light.
Although the essence of grand unity contained in this essence stone was not as pure as directly absorbing the essence of grand unity from Heaven and Earth, it was sufficient for refining the Taiyi Dao Pill.
Immediately after, his gaze fell upon a peculiar Spiritual Plant.
The leaves of this Spiritual Plant were like swords, vibrant green, with nine leaves encircling a budding flower, emitting a faint fragrance.
“nine-leaf azure lotus! I actually found it!” Li Mu was overjoyed and quickly put away this nine-leaf azure lotus.
With this Spiritual Plant, he had all the Materials needed to refine the Creation Dao Pill.
However, there was no limitless qi or ten thousand year earth vein stalactite in Wan Gu Yu’s storage ring.
This made Li Mu feel a bit regretful, but he also understood that these two items were too rare, and finding even one or two of them was already a great Opportunity.
“It seems I still need to find a way to search for these two Materials,” Li Mu mused to himself, already having a plan in mind.
Li Mu put aside the idea of refining the Seven Absolutes Dao Pill and continued to open the remaining four jade boxes.
With a thought from his Divine Thought, the fifth jade box floated before him.
Li Mu opened the fifth jade box, and a flash of light appeared within it, revealing an ancient broken sword.
A faint azure glow flowed over it, exuding a chilling Sword Intent.
Although the sword was broken, its Sword Intent and artifact nature had not perished.
The broken sword body emitted an extremely sharp aura, as if it could cut through all things in the world.
Under the Heavenly Talent - Identifying Myriad Spirits, all the attributes of the broken sword appeared in Li Mu’s eyes.
【Profound Frost Star Sword (Broken)】
【Grade: Eighth-Rank Extreme Dao Sword】
【Attributes: Profound Frost Seal Boundary (Damaged), Star Shattered Shadow (Damaged), Profound Frost Star Rail Bridge (Damaged), Star Trajectory Deduction (Damaged), Myriad Star Slash (Damaged)】
【Status: Sword Broken, Spirit Perished, Divine Power Gone.】
【An Eighth-Rank Divine Artifact - Profound Frost Star Sword, forged from Eighth-Rank Profound Frost Star Sand, Eighth-Rank Nether Cold Iron, and Eighth-Rank Star Jade Marrow.
This sword once accompanied its master in battles across the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
The sword body endured countless battles and finally broke in a world-shaking battle, and the spiritual essence within the sword also perished in that battle… The Profound Frost Star Rail Bridge connects all the stars in the heavens.
This sword was originally a Divine Artifact for traversing between stars, but due to the erosion of endless time, its spirituality was completely worn away, and the spiritual essence within the sword self-sealed.
Because the sword body was inscribed with the ultimate truths of Heaven and Earth, after the spiritual essence dissipated, the sword patterns naturally appeared, revealing its past supreme power.】
“This sword… is extraordinary,” Li Mu murmured, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.
He could feel that this broken sword was no ordinary item; even though it was incomplete, it still contained immense power.
If it could be repaired, it might become a world-shaking Divine Weapon.
However, repairing such a Divine Weapon was by no means easy; it not only required rare Materials but also a profound understanding of the Dao of the Sword.
Li Mu was proficient in Artifact Refining methods, but with Myriad Swords Mountain, he still lacked the high-grade Spiritual Materials to repair it.
After a moment of contemplation, Li Mu decided to temporarily put away this broken sword and consider it again when he had the Opportunity in the future.
After putting the broken sword into the tianxuan ring, Li Mu’s gaze turned to the remaining four jade boxes, a faint anticipation in his heart, wondering what treasures these jade boxes might contain.
With a thought from his Divine Thought, the sixth jade box appeared before him.
Li Mu took a deep breath, lightly tapped his finger, and the jade box opened in response.
Inside the sixth jade box lay an ancient bronze mirror, upon which intricate and mysterious patterns were engraved.
The mirror surface was covered with the marks of Years, yet it still emitted a faint spiritual light, as if it could reflect the secrets deep within one’s Soul.
Under the Heavenly Talent - Identifying Myriad Spirits, the attributes of the ancient bronze mirror were clearly presented in Li Mu’s eyes.
【spirit communication treasure mirror】
【Grade: Seven-Rank Low Grade Dao Artifact】
【Attributes: Mirror Images Connected, Myriad Miles Resonance, Hearts Connected, Sub-Mirror Response, Instant Arrival, Information Unobstructed, Bridge of Myriad Domains.】
【Status: Main Mirror Tarnished, Artifact Nature Damaged.】
【This token is carved from Eighth-Rank Spirit Communication Divine Jade, infused with the marrow of a Seven-Rank Space Spirit Beast, and meticulously refined by an ancient Artifact Refining Saint Master.
This mirror is the main one, with nine sub-mirrors, containing the wondrous spiritual efficacy of timely spirit communication and connection.
The mirror surface is engraved with complex space and heart-resonance spirit patterns.
This token is not only a symbol of the Master of Myriad Mirrors’ identity but also a key to connecting with sub-mirrors and commanding other mirrors.
It contains the “Heart Thought Mirror Communication” Grand Formation, which can cross endless Void Realm and establish a spiritual link with sub-mirrors scattered thousands of miles away, instantly transmitting information regardless of distance.】
“It’s actually the spirit communication treasure mirror! Such a treasure is rare!”
Li Mu reached out and took the ancient mirror.
The moment his fingertips touched the mirror surface, a chilling sensation spread from his fingertips throughout his body, as if even his Soul was touched by this coldness.
His heart stirred, and his Divine Thought entered the ancient mirror.
Immediately, the mirror surface trembled slightly, and silver light flowed, as if some power was awakening.
Li Mu already knew the purpose of this mirror.
He thought that Wan Gu Yu must have used this mirror to contact the other Pavilion Masters in the Wanbao Pavilion’s other Spirit Realms!
Li Mu injected a wisp of Chaos True Essence, and in an instant, he effortlessly refined the spirit communication treasure mirror.
With a thought, he reined in his aura, disguised himself, and transformed into a sixty-year-old man.
A wisp of Divine Thought and True Essence slowly injected into the mirror surface.
The mirror surface of the spirit communication treasure mirror glowed brightly, as if activated.
Patterns flowed on it, releasing bursts of space fluctuations.
Li Mu’s Divine Thought merged with the treasure mirror, and he immediately felt a profound space fluctuation.
Immediately, several passages appeared, interwoven in the mirror, leading to distant and unknown Domains.
“Indeed profound!” Li Mu secretly praised.
This spirit communication treasure mirror could not only transmit information across space but also establish spiritual links with other sub-mirrors through the “Heart Thought Mirror Communication” Grand Formation, instantly transmitting information regardless of distance.
Such a treasure was undoubtedly an extremely important tool for the Pavilion Masters in charge of the various divisions of the Wanbao Pavilion.
With a thought, Li Mu tried to activate the treasure mirror.
The mirror surface trembled slightly, and as silver light flowed, a phantom light figure gradually condensed into shape.
Within the light figure, a middle-aged man in a green robe appeared, his face calm, his eyes sharp, and an imposing aura emanating from him.
“Eh? Who are you? How do you possess Pavilion Master Wan’s treasure mirror? Why can you activate the main mirror?” The green-robed man frowned slightly, a hint of vigilance in his eyes as he scrutinized Li Mu, his face full of shock.
“Your esteemed Pavilion Master has already fallen, and this mirror happened to fall into my hands!” Li Mu faced the green-robed man’s scrutiny with a calm expression, explaining.
“Who exactly are you? Do you know how the Pavilion Master fell?”
The green-robed man was not at all surprised by Wan Gu Yu’s demise.
He stared intently at Li Mu, asking with concern.
“As for me, I am a Cultivator who travels all over the place.
As for the details of the Pavilion Master’s demise, I do know some!” Li Mu smiled slightly and introduced himself.
The green-robed man’s spirits lifted, and he quickly asked, “How exactly did the Pavilion Master fall? Did he leave any last words? Fellow Daoist, could you please tell us the situation in detail? The Wanbao Pavilion will be eternally grateful!”
“Of course!” Li Mu smiled and nodded, explaining in detail: “A few days ago, I entered the black market controlled by your esteemed Pavilion in Wanbao City to purchase some high-grade Spiritual Materials.
However, just as I was about to leave, I unexpectedly stumbled upon a world-shaking battle.
Several Great Vehicle Demonic Lords from the Demon Abyss, in conjunction with several Great Vehicle Dao Lords from the Immortal Spirit Realm, ambushed your esteemed Pavilion Master.”
...
“That battle was truly terrifying and tragic.
Your esteemed Pavilion Master fought one against six without falling into a disadvantage.
However, two fists are no match for four hands, and a hero cannot withstand a pack of wolves.
Pavilion Master Wan was incredibly brave, but ultimately, he could not defeat the combined forces of six Mahayana experts.
In the end, Pavilion Master Wan did not hesitate to activate a treasure cauldron, drawing them all in, and perishing with his enemies.
It was truly magnificent!”
After listening to Li Mu’s narration, the green-robed man’s face was filled with sorrow, his eyes slightly red, clearly moved by Pavilion Master Wan Gu Yu’s heroic deeds.
“Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for informing us, allowing us to know of the Pavilion Master’s bravery.
Do you know the whereabouts of that treasure cauldron?” The green-robed man remembered something, cupped his hands to Li Mu in thanks, and asked with concern.
Li Mu frowned slightly upon hearing this, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, “Regarding the whereabouts of that treasure cauldron, I only caught a fleeting glimpse of it in the aftermath of the battle.
I only saw it being swept into a Void Realm crack by a powerful force.
As for its specific destination, I do not know.
But I think, since that treasure cauldron belonged to the Pavilion Master, it must be extraordinary, and perhaps it possesses the spirituality to return on its own.”
“Oh, about that treasure cauldron, although I couldn’t personally witness its final destination, in the Void Realm, I vaguely captured a hint of an unusual aura, which might have led to the Demonic Gods of the Demon Abyss and the Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Spirit Realm vying for it,” Li Mu added.
Upon hearing this, the green-robed man’s face darkened. (End of Chapter)
