Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

Under the guidance of Wang Wenbao, Li Mu came to the living room of Wanbao Pavilion and met the extraordinary general manager.

The chief manager of Wanbao Pavilion is a middle-aged man wearing a yellow brocade robe. He is of medium build and has an average appearance, but his eyes are bright and lively, giving people a stable and peaceful feeling. His appearance is ordinary and nothing surprising. However, those eyes were extremely bright, as if they could see into people's hearts, revealing an extraordinary bearing. Li Mu's heart moved, and he secretly thought that this middle-aged man was by no means an ordinary person.

Following Wang Wenbao's introduction, Li Mu learned that this middle-aged man was Wan Renlang, the general manager of Wanbao Pavilion. He couldn't help but feel a bit of respect. As a business giant in the world of cultivation, the general manager of Wanbao Pavilion must have strength and wisdom. The coexistence of influential figures.

Li Mu carefully looked at Wan Renlang and found that his cultivation was unfathomable. Faintly, he felt an aura similar to that of Sword Master Feng from him. It was a kind of calm and restrained power, like a hidden palace. Gaoshan, Li Mu's heart moved, and he secretly thought that the chief executive's cultivation level should have reached the integration state.

However, what is surprising is that Wan Renlang's cultivation is only in the late stage of the God Transformation Realm. Li Mu can't help but feel a little confused. The gap between the strong ones in the Fusion Realm and the strong ones in the God Transformation Realm is huge. If Wan Renlang is really If you have reached the state of integration, why should you hide your true cultivation level?

Although Li Mu had doubts, his face remained calm. He knew that there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this world, and there were many strong men. Everyone had their own secrets and trump cards. The reason why Wan Renlang hid his cultivation must have his own intentions and considerations.

When Wan Renlang saw Li Mu, a glint of admiration flashed in his eyes. He stepped forward with a smile and greeted in a gentle yet enthusiastic voice: "Master Li, you have cooperated with Wanbao Pavilion for many years and have excellent formations and weapons. Renlang has long admired your name. It’s a blessing to finally see my true face today!”

Li Mu quickly returned the gift and responded with a smile: "The chief manager is so complimentary. I feel honored to be treated so courteously by Wanbao Pavilion."

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Wan Renlang warmly invited Li Mu to take a seat and personally poured him a cup of spiritual tea. The tea was fragrant and refreshing.

In the following conversation, Wan Renlang asked Li Mu in detail about his thoughts and experience in weapon refining, and expressed great interest in his method of weapon formation. Li Mu also did not hesitate to teach him. The more the two talked, the more speculative they became. The atmosphere also became more harmonious.

Soon, the conversation between the two naturally turned to the secret realm.

Wan Renlang put down the tea cup in his hand, frowned slightly, looked at Li Mu with a solemn expression, and said worriedly: "Master Li, this time you decided to participate in the secret treasure hunt in the Arctic Icefield, which is a bit beyond my expectation. I must remind you that the origin of this secret realm is not trivial. It is most likely the dojo of a certain Taoist master. There are crises and unknown risks in it that are difficult to predict. If you are not careful, you will be in danger."

Having said this, Wan Renlang's eyes flashed with a complex light, he stared at Li Mu, his tone revealed a bit of sincerity and concern, and he advised: "Master Li, you are a great master of weapon refining and have a distinguished status. This trip to the secret treasure hunt in the Arctic Icefield is too risky, so I want to dissuade Master Li from giving up this operation."

Wan Renlang took a deep breath and continued in a more sincere tone: "As for the anti-death spirit grass you need, Master Li, I, Wanbao Pavilion, will definitely do our best and use all available resources and connections to find ways to help you get it. With this spiritual grass, you don’t actually need to take risks yourself to go to the dangerous Arctic ice fields. You only need to wait peacefully in Wanbao City, and I will personally supervise the matter."

Wan Renlang looked at Li Mu with sincere eyes, full of concern for Li Mu's safety, and at the same time revealed that Wanbao Pavilion valued Li Mu.

Li Mugui is a great master of weapon refining. His existence itself is a huge commercial value. Every spiritual treasure entrusted to him to refine is enough to cause a sensation and bring huge profits to Wanbao Pavilion. What's more, his potential is far away. More than that, in the future, if Li Mu can continue to advance and become the legendary Taoist weapon craftsman, it will mean that he can refine Taoist weapons, which are the hens that can continuously lay golden eggs, and their value will be even greater. It is immeasurable. For Wanbao Pavilion, establishing a long-term and stable cooperative relationship with Li Mu is undoubtedly a very wise choice for his personal safety.

Based on these deep considerations, Wan Renlang really didn't want to see Li Mu take risks because of a spiritual grass. Li Mu's safety was not only related to his personal life and death, but also related to Wanbao Pavilion's future commercial interests. Therefore, he would dissuade Li Mu so firmly.

Hearing this, Li Mu smiled slightly, with firmness and confidence shining in his eyes. He raised his hands and thanked Wan Renlang: "Manager Wan, Li appreciates your kindness. However, the path of spiritual practice is to go against heaven, but this is not the case." The Death-Resisting Spirit Grass is related to a Taoist oath, so Li has to go there in person to explore its traces. As for the dangers in the secret realm, Li will naturally deal with them carefully and will not act recklessly. Li will act cautiously. , ensure your own safety and will never put yourself in danger easily, so don’t worry, Manager Wan.”

After hearing Li Mu's reasons, Wan Renlang couldn't help but sigh helplessly. Although he was still a little worried, he also understood Li Mu's determination. It was really difficult to persuade Li Mu regarding the Dao Heart Oath, so he could only silently bless Li Mu and hope that He was able to successfully obtain the Anti-Death Spirit Grass and return safely.

"Master Li, since you have made up your mind, I will no longer persuade you." Wan Renlang said in a deep voice, "But please be careful. I will do my best to prepare all the necessary manpower and material resources to ensure your trip." Peace and success.”

"Thank you, Manager Wan." Li Mu nodded gratefully.

Seeing this, Wan Renlang changed the topic and said with a smile: "Master Li, it's rare for you to come to Wanbao City. You might as well stay a few more days and let me fulfill my friendship as a landlord. You also know that Wanbao City is a rare treasure in the world. It is a gathering place for exotic treasures. There are countless large-scale events, high-end trade fairs, and auctions held here every day. These events bring together treasures and rare goods from all over the world. Maybe there is an artifact you are interested in among them. Materials or rare magic weapons. If you are interested, I can arrange for you to go there and you may find unexpected gains."

Hearing this, a trace of interest flashed in Li Mu's eyes, and he nodded and said: "It's hard to refuse General Manager Wan's kindness, so Li is more respectful than obeying orders. I have troubled General Manager Wan to make arrangements in the past few days, and Li will be very grateful."

Wan Renlang was overjoyed when he heard this and said quickly: "Master Li, you are very polite. It is my honor, Wan Renlang, to serve you. I will make arrangements right away to ensure that you have a pleasant and fulfilling few days in Wanbao City. "

After saying that, Wan Renlang showed an apologetic look on his face, looked at Wang Wenbao aside, and instructed: "Shopkeeper Wang, I am busy with my affairs and cannot accompany Master Li in person. You can do your duty as a landlord on my behalf. Master Li is me." As a distinguished guest of Wanbao Pavilion, your itinerary will be properly arranged by you, and all Master Li’s needs in Wanbao City must be met.”

"Yes!" Wang Wenbao nodded in agreement.

The meeting ended in a hasty but pleasant atmosphere. Li Mu shook hands with Wan Renlang and said goodbye with a satisfied smile on his face. Afterwards, Wang Wenbao took Li Mu out of the living room and walked towards the elegant residence carefully prepared for him by Wanbao Pavilion.

When Wang Wenbao led the way, he introduced the scenery and characteristics of Wanbao City in detail as he walked. His words were full of respect and enthusiasm for Li Mu. He told the history of the establishment of Wanbao City and the stories of what happened in this city. Li Mu had a deeper understanding of this prosperous city.

"Master Li, there are many trading areas in Wanbao City. According to the types of spiritual objects, they are divided into: spirits, treasures, plants, beasts, strange,... and other trading areas. Which trading area do you plan to visit first!"

Soon, the two returned to Yaju and met Xueer.

Wang Wenbao looked at Li Mu with a smile and asked: "Master Li, the Wanbao City shopping area is quite vast, full of dazzling arrays, and many types. Among them, according to the types of spiritual objects, they are divided into spirits, treasures, plants, beasts, strange... and so on. There are trading areas. I wonder what interest you and Miss Xueer have in these trading areas? Which one do you plan to visit first? Of course, in addition to this, there is also a high-end trade fair and an auction that is currently going on."

"Xue'er, where are you going to go shopping?" Li Mu looked at Xue'er and asked with a smile.

"Master Li, you decide! Wherever you go, I will go! Xueer blinked her bright eyes and looked at Li Mu with a smile on her face.

Li Mu nodded, looked at Wang Wenbao and decided: "Shopkeeper Wang, I'll go check out the trade fair and auction later. I'm quite interested in Ling Zhi and the rare position. I wonder where these two trading areas are? What’s so special about it?”

When Wang Wenbao heard this, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he explained with a smile: "Master Li really has a unique eye. The trading area for spiritual plants and rare things is indeed a very special existence in Wanbao City."

"The Spiritual Plant Trading Area is located in the east district of Wanbao City. There are many kinds of rare spiritual herbs and fairy flowers from all over the world. Most of them contain the essence of heaven and earth, as well as many alchemy elixirs. There, you can not only see Various rare spiritual plants can also be exchanged with spiritual planters from all over the world, which may lead to unexpected gains."

"As for the trading area for rare objects, it is located in the North District of Wanbao City. It is a gathering place for all kinds of strange treasures, such as secret treasures, cup utensils, witchcraft utensils,..., all kinds of ancient utensils..., if Master Li is If you are interested in these two trading areas, I will take you there to find out."

After saying that, Wang Wenbao turned around and led Li Mu and Xueer towards the Lingzhi trading area.

Seeing this, Li Mu and Xueer quickly followed his footsteps.

Following Wang Wenbao's guidance, the three of them passed through the bustling streets of Wanbao City and finally arrived at the East District, the famous spiritual plant trading area. Here is a vast spiritual plant garden, like a green ocean, full of vitality, exuding rich spiritual energy and various floral fragrances, which is refreshing and refreshing.

As soon as he stepped into the trading area, a spectacular scene unfolded in front of Li Mu. The spiritual plant shops are lined up one after another, densely packed, as if there is no limit. These shops have different decorations, some are simple and elegant, some are magnificent, each showing their unique style and characteristics.

Between the shops, a variety of spiritual plants are displayed in a dazzling array. Some spiritual plants have leaves as green as jade and crystal clear, as if they contain the essence of nature; some spiritual plants have bright and dazzling flowers, colorful and charming. The aroma is intoxicating; some spiritual plants contain deep spiritual power and exude a powerful aura...

Li Mu took Xueer for a walk in the Lingzhi trading area. His eyes were constantly attracted by the various rare spiritual plants in the Lingzhi store. Sometimes he stopped to watch, and sometimes he communicated in low voices.

"Master Li, what kind of spiritual fruit is this? It looks so delicious." Xueer suddenly pointed to the ice mist spiritual fruit grown by a high-level spiritual plant in a spiritual plant shop and asked Li Mu curiously.

Li Mu looked in the direction pointed by Xue'er and saw a fruit-bearing spiritual plant prominently displayed in the spiritual plant store. It had grown a brightly colored, fragrant white spiritual fruit that looked like a small lantern. With attractive luster.

"This is the Cloud and Mist Spirit Fruit, a spiritual fruit produced by the fourth-level spiritual plant - the Cloud and Mist Spirit Vine." Li Mu smiled slightly and explained: "The Cloud and Mist Spirit Vine grows in the mountains and forests with rich spiritual energy, and is formed by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth. Yunwu Spirit Vine The spiritual fruit not only tastes delicious, but also contains rich water spiritual power. It is an excellent supplement for practitioners of water spiritual roots and ice spiritual roots. This cloud spiritual fruit has been cultivated well and has produced so many spiritual fruits. Buy it!”

Hearing Li Mu's explanation, a hint of surprise flashed in Xue'er's eyes, and her curiosity and expectation for the Cloud Spirit Fruit became stronger. Just as he was about to take out the spiritual stone from the storage bag to pay the bill, Wang Wenbao's voice suddenly sounded: "Let me do it! Miss Xue'er, please put this spiritual plant away!"

Wang Wenbao quickly intervened and showed his token to the shop owner. Upon seeing this, the shop owner immediately showed a respectful smile on his face and thanked him repeatedly. As the shopkeeper of Wanbao City, Wang Wenbao's token is naturally highly recognized in the city.

Xue'er nodded and put the Cloud Mist Spirit Vine into her storage bag. She couldn't wait to pick two Yunwu Spirit Fruits and gently held them in her hands. A fresh fragrance poured into her nose.

Looking at the spiritual fruits carefully, I saw that they were crystal clear, as if they were carved from ice and snow, exuding an alluring luster. Xueer couldn't help but take a bite, and the juice immediately overflowed, and the sweetness bloomed on the taste buds, melting in the mouth like ice and snow, bringing a refreshing feeling.

This wonderful taste refreshed Xueer. She sighed with satisfaction and had endless aftertaste. Xueer raised her head and looked at Li Mu, and handed another Yunwu Spirit Fruit to Li Mu: "Master Li, you should also try this Yunwu." The spiritual fruit is so delicious!”

Li Mu took the spirit fruit with a smile, took a bite, and immediately felt the sweet and delicious taste. He nodded appreciatively and said: "This cloud spirit fruit is indeed extraordinary. It not only tastes delicious, but also contains rich water spirit." Power is indeed a rare treasure.”

While tasting the delicious Yunwu Spirit Fruit, the two continued to wander around the spiritual plant trading area, stopping from time to time to view various rare spiritual plants, exchange experiences with the stall owners, and enjoy the fun of this treasure hunt.

Soon, Li Mu stopped in a quaint spiritual plant shop. He was gifted with the magical ability to identify all spirits. Among countless spiritual plants, he finally made a high-value discovery. (End of chapter)
