I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm-Chapter 144 - 117: Spirit Transmission (Double-Length, Monthly Ticket Request)

"Don’t worry! The name ’Master Li’ is worth those Spirit Stones!" Gongsun Chu said with ample confidence, smiling.

Throughout this period of investigation, Gongsun Chu clearly learned how many High-tier Spiritual Artifacts Li Mu had refined for Qing Xuan Sect. The value of those artifacts, casually combined, could easily surpass the refining materials he took away.

Gongsun Chu fully trusted Master Li wouldn’t tarnish his reputation as an Artifact Refining Grandmaster for some mere materials. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

The reality was even more commendable than Gongsun Chu estimated. Li Mu had refined one Tier Four Spiritual Artifact for Qing Xuan Sect and then received refining materials for free, even more so this time. It wasn’t necessary to seek anything from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, except for Purple Sun Jade and Supreme Profound Moon Dew.

A trivial amount of profit from artifact refining wasn’t worth Li Mu’s effort to refine for the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, let alone steal refining materials. On Moon Pearl Peak, the number of Spiritual Artifacts undergoing Spirit Transformation was increasing, causing quite a bit of trouble.

Casually selling a Tier Four Spiritual Artifact with an Artifact Spirit could potentially fetch a price higher than a Tier Five Spiritual Artifact.

Li Mu returned to Moon Pearl Peak via Sword Control and immediately planted 90 acres of Tier Two Exquisite Spirit Grass Seed and 90 acres of Tier Two Celestial Wind Grass Spirit Seed separately, casting a Clear Wind Rain Summoning Skill to irrigate the Spirit Field while inspecting the Spirit Field thoroughly.

After confirming that all Tier Two and Tier Three Spirit Plants were growing smoothly, Li Mu relaxed and landed in the courtyard via Sword Control.

Seeing Li Mu’s figure, the Red Wolf and Xiaojin eagerly ran up to him, acted cute and cuddly, asking for food. Every time Li Mu returned, he would bring them treats, be it Spirit Pills or Demon Beast Meat. This time would be no exception.

Li Mu fed each of them a Spirit Pill, Xiaojin received a Golden Vein Pill, and the Red Wolf a Spirit Feeding Pill. Afterward, he turned and walked towards the ice cellar, retrieving a large piece of Tier Three Cloud-Stepping Spirit Deer’s hind leg meat, and started cooking it at the stove.

Meal time was often the moment to practice the Fifth-level Earth Tier Technique - Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique.

Through three meals a day and continuous cultivation, Li Mu now needed to consume Tier Three Demon Beast Meat to fulfill the technique demand of Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique.

While consuming Tier Three Demon Beast Meat, he simultaneously performed Whale Devouring Spirit, Whale Swallowing Bone Refining, and Spirit Blood Refining using three types of Body Nourishing Divine Techniques to enhance Body Refinement effects.

Currently, Li Mu’s physical body had been cultivated to a strength comparable to a Tier Three Demon Beast’s physique, capable of easily unleashing punches with ten-thousand-pound force.

Soon, the large hind leg of the Tier Three Cloud-Stepping Deer was perfectly roasted, Li Mu took a small knife, cut off a golden-brown meat chunk, and happily savored it in his mouth.

"Zhi Zhi!"

"Woof woof! Woof woof!"

Smelling the aroma of meat, the Red Wolf and Xiaojin ran to Li Mu, whining non-stop, looking expectantly at their master, hoping to get a taste.

"This is Tier Three Demon Beast Meat! You can’t digest it. Have you forgotten the lesson from last time?" Li Mu smiled and tactfully declined, reminding them.

"Woof woof! Woof woof!" The Red Wolf clearly remembered the lesson but was unwilling to give up, barking towards the ice cellar direction, hinting for Li Mu to fetch Tier Two Demon Beast Meat or Tier One Demon Meat for roasting.

"There’s no stock left! The remaining are all Tier Three Demon Beasts. If you don’t believe, go check the ice cellar yourself!" Li Mu chuckled, responding to the Red Wolf.

The Red Wolf understood, unbelieving, it walked towards the ice cellar; it could discern the huge difference in Spirit Content between Tier One and Tier Two Demon Beast Meat and Tier Three Demon Beast Meat.

Not long after, the Red Wolf returned from the ice cellar with a defeated look, angrily barked twice at Li Mu, questioning why without stock, he didn’t buy Tier One or Tier Two Demon Beast Meat; what should they eat? Are they going to starve, turning into dead dogs?

"You cheeky dog! You’ve got some nerve to direct me! Come here!" Li Mu beckoned the Red Wolf, amused and annoyed.

The Red Wolf got startled, knowing approaching would mean getting hit, hastily scampered away.

Seeing the Red Wolf sensibly run off, Li Mu continued to immerse himself in meat-eating, while fully operating the Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique, quickly digesting Tier Three Demon Beast Meat, continuing body nourishment and Body Refinement, refining his cultivation.

"Zhi Zhi!"

Xiaojin didn’t leave, stared at the meat chunk in Li Mu’s hand, seemingly resolved, and cried out to its master.

"Uh! You still want a challenge? Are you sure?" Li Mu met Xiaojin’s gaze, felt Xiaojin’s determination through the Spirit Taming Contract Seal.

"Zhi Zhi!" Xiaojin bared its teeth in response, seemingly telling Li Mu that Xiaojin wouldn’t be defeated by a piece of meat.

"Alright, alright! If you want to eat, I’ll let you have a piece! If you’re greedy, just admit it, no need for excuses!" Li Mu, amused, sliced off a small meat piece and handed it to Xiaojin.

Xiaojin accepted the meat piece, put it in its mouth, chewed a few times, then swallowed it in one go.

Rich, potent Demon Spirit Power burst forth from the Tier Three meat chunk, Xiaojin’s facial veins immediately protruded.

"Groan!" Xiaojin couldn’t help but kneel on both knees, hugged its belly with both hands, painfully roaring, releasing the massive Demon Power within.

Witnessing this, Li Mu was inspired, through the Spirit Taming Contract Seal, perceiving Xiaojin’s status, a thought suddenly emerged.

Earth-tier Technique - Spirit Taming Contract, upon reaching level five, spawned several Spirit Manipulation Divine Techniques: Spirit Possession Technique, Spirit-Taming Soul Technique, Spiritual Soul Sharing Technique, Spirit Manipulation and Soul Control Technique, Spirit Transmission Technique.

Due to concerns over the technique’s impact on a Spirit Taming Master’s Divine Soul, Li Mu hadn’t utilized any other derived techniques from the initial Spirit Taming Contract Seal Art.

However, Li Mu roughly knew these techniques’ functions. Spirit Possession Technique, as the name suggests, was if anything happened to one’s body, one’s Divine Soul could possess a tamed beast, surviving tenuously.
