Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

In VIP Room No. 1, Li Mu seemed to turn a deaf ear to the noise from the outside world. He clutched the bidding order in his hand, waiting for the bidding time limit to end, and was ready to intervene in the bidding at any time.

However, the strange thing is that after Li Mu participated in the bidding, the other bidders seemed to have agreed upon it and collectively gave up on the broken boundary stone.

As the bidding time limit ended and the auction hammer fell, Wan Tiancheng announced that the broken boundary stone had been sold for 1 million high-grade spiritual stones. He looked respectfully at VIP Room No. 1 and congratulated: "Congratulations to VIP No. 1 for successfully bidding for the broken boundary stone."

"We got it! Those guys really gave Elder Li face!"

Sword Master Feng looked at Li Mu and smiled in surprise.

"Hahaha, that's not the case. Elder Li is the only weapon refining master in the spiritual world who can refine Tao weapons. If they take the broken boundary stone, no one can refine the cave treasure. In the end, they will have to find Elder Li to refine it! "Sword Master Chen laughed and said happily.

Li Mu smiled calmly and said modestly: "The two sword masters are overly praised."

The auction is still going on. On the auction stage, Wan Tiancheng announced impassionedly: "Next, I would like to invite you to the next important treasure, the seventh-level mid-grade Taoist sword Fentian refined by Master Li, the senior weapon refiner of this pavilion. !”

As soon as these words came out, the entire auction venue immediately burst into excitement.

"Are we finally going to auction the Taoist soldiers?"

"It's actually a fire-attribute Taoist soldier. I don't know what the Taoism is!"

"..."

The atmosphere in the entire auction hall was instantly ignited by the seventh-level Taoist sword. All the virtual refining monks on the scene couldn't stop talking and looked at the auction table, their eyes full of expectation, eager to see the power of the seventh-level Taoist sword.

Wan Tiancheng looked at the reaction in the venue with satisfaction and waved his hand gently. The next moment, the teleportation platform on the auction stage flashed, and a sword box appeared for teleportation. The white jade sword box was carved with complex runes, and there was a faint flow of spiritual energy. It was obviously specially customized to conceal the Taoist sword's aura.

Wan Tiancheng looked towards the direction of the VIP room and sensed the powerful spiritual thoughts locked by the powerful men. He smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and opened the sword box.

"Buzz!" A sword roared, and a flash of red light escaped from the sword box in an instant, blooming with terrifying heat. The red light was like the first ray of dawn, but it carried terrifying heat that could burn mountains and boil seas, instantly filling the air. The entire auction venue. The air seemed to be ignited, and even the space was slightly distorted by this force, forming tiny ripples. This is the first appearance of Fentian, the seventh-level middle-grade Taoist sword.

The body of the Burning Heaven Dao Sword is as red as blood and crystal clear, like the purest flame between heaven and earth condensed. Complex and mysterious flame patterns flowed on the sword, blooming with the sword intent of terrifying fire.

Fortunately, Wan Tiancheng was well prepared. He raised his hand gently, and a gentle force surged out from his palm, wrapping around the wantonly dancing Burning Heaven Dao Sword in his hand like a filament, suppressing its cathartic sword power.

At the same time, a powerful formation emerged in the auction hall, turning into a thin shield that enveloped the auction stage and the surrounding auditorium, effectively isolating the high temperature released by Fentian and allowing everyone to safely Appreciate the elegance of this peerless Taoist sword.

"Everyone, please rest assured that although Fentian's power is strong, under the careful arrangement of this pavilion, it will never cause any harm to you." Wan Tiancheng looked at Tai Xiao and smiled slightly, his voice clearly reaching everyone's ears. In his ears, he comforted the monks.

"Amazing!"

"Is this the majesty of the seventh-level Dao sword? It is indeed well-deserved!"

"The flame Dao contained in this Burning Heaven Dao Lord is extraordinary! It actually possesses the power of heavenly fire. Master Li, his weapon refining skills have truly reached a state of perfection!"

…

The monks expressed their admiration one after another. They were either amazed at Fentian's shocking power, or admired the exquisite skills of the refiner, Master Li. The auction hall was filled with infinite yearning and awe for this treasure.

Seeing this, Wan Tiancheng was secretly proud. He gently raised the Fentian Taoist Sword, and with a sword sound, the Taoist sword drew a brilliant red line in the air. The sword light flashed past, leaving a subtle flame trail in the air. After lingering for a long time, the fire sword intent became extremely strong and showed its essence.

"Fellow Taoists, this Burning Heaven Dao Sword is made of seventh-level Yanhuang Spiritual Crystal as its main material, supplemented by a variety of rare fire-type spiritual minerals. It is not only made of extraordinary materials, but also contains the Dao of 'Burning Heaven's Fire'. Then, when this sword is unsheathed, it can trigger the fire of heaven and earth, burning all things. What is even more valuable is that it has developed spirituality and can sense the master's will and move according to the master's wishes. It is a rare fighting partner. "

"When the sword was completed, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky, clouds of fire swirled around, and the sound of the sword resounded through the sky. It is a rare fire Dao sword!"

There was a hint of indescribable excitement in Wan Tiancheng's voice, which revealed the extraordinary features of the Burning Heaven Dao Sword and aroused the infinite desire and longing in the hearts of the monks present.

"The sword is a good sword, but it's a pity that we can only look at it!"

"Who says it's not the case? Only the master of one party and the powerful one can hold this kind of Dao sword!"

"This Burning Heaven Dao Sword will probably fetch a sky-high price!,"

"This level of Dao sword! I am so envious of Yu!"

…

The Void Refinement cultivators in the lobby were discussing the matter incessantly. Some expressed their endless yearning for the Burning Heaven Dao Sword, while others sighed helplessly at their own strength and financial resources.

However, in this craze, nearly a hundred fire monks in the VIP room were determined to win Fentian. They had noble status and amazing strength. They were elders of a certain sect, or reclusive masters, or members of a sect. , the master of a sect.

They knew the importance of this sword to the improvement of the sect's strength or their own cultivation, and it would help them break through to the next realm and build the foundation of the Dao. Therefore, even if the price of this sword was high, they would not hesitate.

The cultivators were ready to start a fierce bidding war.

At this time, Wan Tiancheng announced excitedly: "The starting price of the Burning Heaven Sword is 500,000 high-grade spirit stones. Each bid must not be less than 50,000. The time limit is 300 breaths. Now, the bidding begins!"

As Wan Tiancheng finished speaking, the atmosphere in the auction hall was instantly ignited, boiling like boiling water.

"800,000! VIP Room 5 bids 800,000!"

"VIP Room 23! One hundred and thirty-five!"

...

Wan Tiancheng excitedly reported the latest bidding for the Burning Heaven Sword. In less than 30 breaths, the bidding price changed greatly and broke through 2 million high-grade spirit stones in a blink of an eye.

"Hmph, how can a mere two million high-grade spirit stones be worthy of such a precious sword?" A sneer of contempt came from the VIP room No. 8, followed by a jaw-dropping offer that resounded throughout the venue: "Three million, this sword, my Xuanxiao Sect, we are determined to get it!"

As soon as these words came out, the venue suddenly fell into a dead silence, and then a fierce discussion broke out. Three million high-grade spirit stones, for most cultivators, is almost an astronomical figure, enough to make many sects go bankrupt.

"VIP room No. 8, it turned out to be Xuanxiao Sect-Master Xin!"

"As expected of the Xuanxiao Sect that controls the Xuanzhu small world, it is indeed rich and powerful!"

"Tsk tsk tsk! This old Taoist has learned a lot in this life!"

...

The cultivators of the refining realm in the hall were discussing it heatedly, and the discussion was mixed with awe and envy. Everyone knew that the status of Xuanxiao Sect in the spiritual world was not insignificant, and Master Xin was even more famous for his superior strength and extraordinary means.

This time, he personally sent out the bid, which put pressure on all competitors in one fell swoop, trying to get the Burning Heaven Sword. For a while, no one bid any more.

However, at this moment when it seemed that the outcome was settled, another voice came from VIP Room No. 5: "Three million and two hundred thousand. My Netherworld Sect is also interested in this sword and is willing to compete with Xuanxiao Sect."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue froze instantly.

"Netherworld Sect? They actually participated in the auction!"

Someone exclaimed in a low voice, obviously surprised by the participation of the Netherworld Sect. The Netherworld Sect and Xuanxiao Sect, one dark and one bright, each sect has its own merits in the outer domain of the spirit world, but today they are facing off because of a Burning Heaven Sword, which is rare.

Afterwards, more intense divine thoughts were transmitted in the venue, and the bidding numbers continued to jump. Obviously, more than one strong man was competing for the Burning Heaven Sword, and the bluffing strategy of Xuanxiao Sect-Master Xin failed.

……

"The Xuanxiao Sect and the Netherworld Sect are both extraterritorial forces. As the overlord of the area north of the spiritual world, the Xuanxiao Sect's history can be traced back to ancient times. There are many powerful people in the sect, and they have inherited many ancient secrets and powerful magical powers. Sect Master Xin is the leader of the contemporary Xuanxiao Sect. His cultivation has reached the peak of the fusion state. The Xuanzhu small world controlled by the Xuanxiao Sect is rich in resources and rich in spiritual energy. It has cultivated countless outstanding disciples for the sect, making the Xuanxiao Sect's influence in the spiritual world increasingly stronger."

"And the Netherworld Sect is hidden in the wild star outside the domain, backed by Jiuyou. It is a corner forgotten by the world, but also It is a holy place for the Netherworld Sect to practice. The Netherworld Sect has a unique practice method and is good at controlling the power of the Netherworld. It is known for its coldness and weirdness. There are also many masters in the sect, especially good at assassination and intelligence gathering, which makes them have a pivotal position in the outer domain of the spirit world. Although they usually act low-key, once they make a move, they can often set off a huge wave. The Netherworld Sect's participation in the auction of the Burning Heaven Sword is enough to show their importance to this treasure, and it also indicates that they may have some plans! "

In VIP Room No. 1, Feng Jianzhu looked solemn and introduced the situation of the two outer domain forces to Li Mu in detail.

"Outside the domain?"

Li Mu blinked his eyes, obviously not very clear about the outer domain that Feng Jianzhu mentioned.

"Haha, Elder Li, you haven't reached the fusion realm yet, so naturally you don't know what's happening outside the four realms of the spirit world. In fact, our world is on a planet with abundant spiritual power, called Qi Ling Star, and the area surrounding Qi Ling Star and sixteen stars like it is usually called the 'inner realm'. However, outside Qi Ling Star, there is a more vast and mysterious area with hundreds of planets, which is the 'outside realm'." Chen Jianzhu laughed and took over the conversation to introduce Li Mu.

"Outside the realm, the environment is very different. Some stars have thin spiritual energy and poor living conditions; others are rich in resources and even hide ancient relics and secret treasures. These areas are often occupied by major sects, aristocratic families or independent cultivators, forming their own unique sphere of influence. Xuan Xiao Sect and You Ming Sect are one of the most powerful forces outside the realm. Their influence far exceeds Qi Ling Star and can even penetrate into the inner realm." Chen Jianzhu continued to introduce.

"Yes, some cultivation resources outside the domain are scarcer than those inside the domain, and the fighting between sects is far more intense and cruel than that in the inner domain. In order to compete for resources, territory or inheritance, wars often break out between sects. The strong are respected and the weak are the law of survival there. Therefore, the sects that can gain a foothold outside the domain are all strong and have profound foundation." Master Feng nodded and added.

Speaking of this, Master Feng paused slightly, looked deeply at the Burning Heaven Sword being auctioned at the venue, and continued: "And the Burning Heaven Sword, a treasure involving the Dao essence, is enough to cause huge waves, whether in the inner domain or outside the domain. It not only represents powerful power, but also may hide the key to a higher realm. Therefore, both the Xuanxiao Sect and the Netherworld Sect are willing to take it in at all costs."

"So that's it!" Li Mu suddenly realized that he had never thought that he was on a planet of Qiling Star, let alone that there was such a vast and complex world outside Qiling Star.

Now, now from this perspective, Li Mu finally understood the principle of the ninth-level divine formation-the Chaos Sealing Domain Formation.

If the spiritual world is on a Qiling Star full of spiritual power, then the hundreds of planets outside the domain of Qiling Star are all contained in a galaxy, forming a star system. The ninth-order divine formation, the Chaos Sealing Formation, sealed the space-time channel from the outer galaxy, and also sealed the space-time channel from the spirit world to the previous fairy world.

"Our sect also has branch sects on other planets. Although those branch sects are not as large and profound as the headquarters of the Zhongzhou Spirit Realm, they also occupy a pivotal position on their respective planets. Elder Li, your cultivation is still shallow. When you break through to the realm of refining emptiness, the law domain is condensed and formed, and you can easily resist the all-pervasive force from the sky, I can take you to see the situation of those branch sects. By then, you will personally experience the vastness of the world outside the domain." Feng Jianzhu looked at Li Mu and smiled encouragingly.

"Thank you for your cultivation, Feng Jianzhu. Li will practice diligently and accept the invitation as soon as possible." Li Mu smiled and nodded, and he was also looking forward to seeing another world outside the sky with his physical body.

As the conversation between the three people deepened, three hundred breaths passed quietly, as if in the blink of an eye, and the crisp sound of the hammer falling at the auction of the Burning Heaven Sword came from outside the VIP room.

The auction of the Burning Heaven Sword has come to an end. Wan Tiancheng announced loudly that the seventh-level Burning Heaven Sword was won by VIP Room No. 3 at a high price of 4.5 million high-quality spirit stones.

This scene not only demonstrated the fierce competition for rare resources among the top forces, but also made everyone present deeply feel the close connection between wealth and strength in the world of cultivation.

Witnessing this scene, Li Mu couldn't help but secretly smack his lips, a little surprised at the wealth held by these top forces, and at the same time very happy, he would reap a large amount of extra income from this auction commission.

Sword Master Feng and Sword Master Chen exchanged a meaningful look, and their attention to Li Mu quietly climbed several steps at this moment.

A seventh-grade middle-grade Dao sword refined by Li Mu could be auctioned at such a high price. However, the number of seventh-grade upper-grade Dao swords refined by him for Xuantian Sword Sect is not small. (End of this chapter)
