Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

Luo Yan was trapped in the Nine Stars Array, his face was extremely gloomy. He never expected that a seemingly inconspicuous cultivator could set up such an exquisite and powerful array.

Facing Feng Wuhen's fierce attack, Luo Yan had to activate the Ghost Dao Domain to condense the Netherworld Ghost Qi, forming a black shield, barely resisting the sword light like a storm.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, Feng Wuhen's sword light and Luo Yan's Netherworld Shield collided violently, and the entire Nine Stars Array seemed to tremble, and ripples appeared in the space.

The sword light and ghost energy intertwined, the light was dazzling and weird, the power collision between the two, and the energy aftermath continued to scatter, impacting the edge of the array, making the star light more dazzling, but also revealing an unstable atmosphere.

Luo Yan's face became more and more ugly. He could feel that the Netherworld Shield he had condensed was being rapidly eroded by Feng Wuhen's sword intent. At the same time, the omnipresent power of the stars continued to compress his activity space, making him feel unprecedented pressure.

Luo Yan stared at Li Mu outside the formation. His current predicament was caused by the Nine Stars Trapped Formation set up by this Refining Void cultivator. This cultivator with low cultivation had an unimaginable attainment in formation formation, and all his combined subordinates died because of him.

If this boy is not eliminated, there will be endless troubles!

"The origin of the ghost way, the ghost army, appear!" Luo Yan roared angrily, and the ghost energy of the Netherworld in his body instantly boiled, as if countless ghosts were roaring, his eyes turned blood red, revealing a kind of madness and determination.

As Luo Yan roared, the atmosphere in the entire Nine Stars Array suddenly became gloomy and terrifying, as if the gate of hell was opened, and endless evil power poured out. The ghost energy of the underworld gathered into substance, turning into a ghost army wearing black armor and holding ghost soldiers. They roared and screamed, pouring out from around Luo Yan's body, instantly filling the entire array space.

A whole army of ghosts, each ghost soldier contained Luo Yan's ghost cultivation and resentment. They were not afraid of life and death, but only knew to obey the will of their master, charging towards every corner of the array. The power of the stars seemed to lose its light in front of them, and was swallowed by layer after layer of ghost energy of the underworld.

Seeing this, Feng Wuhen's face changed, and he immediately understood his intention, and naturally would not let it go.

"Sword Domain of Wind, Endless Sword Qi!" Feng Wuhen shouted, his whole body surging with spiritual power, the Qinghong Dao Sword in his hand transformed into thousands of sword shadows, no longer limited to a single attack, but perfectly integrated swordsmanship with body skills and spiritual power, forming a set of impenetrable sword walls.

Feng Wuhen's Dao Domain was fully opened, his figure was like a dragon playing in the water, flexible and changeable, and he launched a fierce battle with the ghost army. The sword light and ghost energy intertwined together, forming a thrilling picture. The entire Nine Stars Array was filled with the noise of battle and the shadow of death.

However, Luo Yan did not slow down his offensive. There was only coldness and determination in his eyes. Although the ghost army was blocked by Feng Wuhen's sword dance, the number was huge, and each ghost soldier was a microcosm of his Mahayana ghost cultivation. Even if they were killed, they could quickly reborn in the ghost energy of the netherworld, which was endless and endless.

"You think you can stop me?" Luo Yan sneered, his voice full of unquestionable majesty. He formed seals with his hands and chanted something. The ghost energy of the underworld was boiling, dyeing the entire Nine Stars Array into a dark black.

"Ghost Road·Netherworld Purgatory!" Luo Yan suddenly shouted, and saw the ghost energy surging in the array, turning into a dark purgatory scene. The flame-like ghost fire jumped in the ghost energy, burning the space and distorting it. The ghost army doubled its strength in this purgatory, and the offensive became more fierce.

Soon, a part of the ghost army broke through Feng Wuhen's sword domain, broke through the blockade of the Nine Stars Array, and went straight to Li Mu, who was leading the Nine Stars Array.

"Elder Li, be careful, run away!"

Feng Wuhen's face changed drastically. He didn't expect Luo Yan's Netherworld Purgatory to be able to penetrate his sword domain defense so easily. Once the ghost army came into contact with Li Mu, the consequences would be disastrous. He waved his sword vigorously to block the ghosts that broke through the blockade, and called out to Li Mu anxiously.

Just as the ghost army was about to break through the Nine Stars Formation and threaten his life, Li Mu's face was not panicked at all, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Xiaobai, show up!" Li Mu called softly, and before he finished speaking, a pure white, flawless, small and exquisite figure appeared. It was crystal clear, as if condensed by the purest moonlight, with its wings spread lightly, exuding an ancient and powerful breath.

Seeing the figure of 'Xiaobai', the fierce ghost army that rushed over and was ready to devour Li Mu stopped as if they saw the existence of a natural enemy, and their eyes showed unprecedented fear and retreat.

Those ghosts who were originally roaring and screaming, trembled involuntarily at this moment, as if they were facing not a living being, but a terrifying existence that could subvert the foundation of their existence.

"What is this? How can there be such a thing in this world?"

Luo Yan's pupils shrank, staring at the palm-sized little man with a pair of butterfly wings on his back, his face full of horror.

As a ghost clan, a great master of the Mahayana, no one can feel the terrible breath emanating from Xiao Bai more than him. This power is like ice and snow under the scorching sun to the ghost energy of the netherworld that he relies on, which can melt away in an instant.

When Xiao Bai saw the army of fierce ghosts, his eyes lit up, and then he opened his mouth, and a strong suction burst out from his mouth, like a whirlpool under the moonlight, instantly sucking the surrounding ghost army into it.

The moment these ferocious ghosts touched this suction force, they were like being tied up by invisible ropes, unable to break free, and could only watch themselves being sucked into Xiaobai's mouth bit by bit.

As Xiaobai continued to devour, the roaring and screaming ghosts gradually weakened until they disappeared completely, while the light on Xiaobai became more and more dazzling, as if it had absorbed the power of these ghosts and became purer and more powerful.

"Burp!" Xiaobai burped, licked his tongue, flapped his wings with satisfaction, drew a graceful arc in the air, and returned to Li Mu's shoulder. His crystal clear eyes flashed with satisfaction and joy, as if he had just enjoyed a sumptuous meal.

"Well done! Xiaobai." Li Mu smiled at Xiaobai and praised him generously.

Seeing this scene, Feng Wuhen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he admired Li Mu from the bottom of his heart.

"Soul Devouring Demon Butterfly? It has been promoted to a true spirit. How is this possible?"

Looking at the fierce ghost army composed of hundreds of thousands of ghost kings and ghost generals being devoured by it, Luo Yan was so shocked that he couldn't suppress the trembling of his voice.

Finally, he recognized Xiaobai's origin. The Soul Devouring Demon Butterfly is an extremely rare demon insect in the world. They feed on souls and ghosts. They have the magical ability to purify all evil and filth. They are the most terrible nemesis of the ghost clan. This kind of demon insect generally only exists at the fourth or fifth level.

However, the Soul Devouring Demon Butterfly in front of him has already been promoted to a true spirit. This is also Luo Yan's realm at the moment, and he also deeply feels its danger.

Hearing Luo Yan's words, Xiaobai stared at him, his eyes shining, as if he had discovered the most delicious existence in the world.

"Master, I want to eat it, and I can advance again after eating it!"

Xiaobai asked Li Mu excitedly.

"That's the Mahayana Daojun, you're probably not its opponent!" Li Mu heard this, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and he sent a telepathic signal: "Don't be in a hurry. Although the Mahayana Daojun is strong, he is already a bird in a cage in this nine-star trapped array. When he is unable to resist, you can slaughter him."

"Okay, Master!" Xiaobai's eyes lit up and he nodded happily.

Li Mu turned to look at Feng Wuhen, his eyes revealing trust and tacit understanding. "Feng Daojun, you continue to contain Luo Yan so that he has no time to take care of other things. Xiaobai and I will find ways to suppress him."

Feng Wuhen agreed happily, and the sword intent of the Qinghong Dao Sword in his hand became stronger. His figure flashed, and he continued to engage in a more intense confrontation with Luo Yan to buy time for Li Mu and Xiaobai.

Li Mu released his spiritual consciousness, pinched the array formula with both hands, and the nine-star array responded to his call, running rapidly, gathering the majestic star power.

"Power of the stars, listen to my command, the nine stars unite as one, suppress the evil spirits!"

With Li Mu's low shout, the starlight in the Nine Stars Array suddenly became brighter, and the nine stars seemed to come alive. They rotated and intertwined in the air, and finally turned into a dazzling light column, heading straight for Luo Yan.

"Escape from the Netherworld!" Luo Yan roared, and the ghost energy surged all over his body, turning into a group of dark mist, trying to escape from the fatal blow.

However, the Nine Stars Array was a power of heaven and earth that he could not reach. The light column seemed to have spirituality, accurately locking his breath, and even in the heavy ghost fog, it penetrated without hesitation.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the light column collided with Luo Yan's position, bursting out with dazzling light and raging energy storms, and the whole space seemed to tremble at this moment.

When the light faded, Luo Yan looked a little embarrassed, but he managed to stabilize his body with his profound cultivation, but his arrogant attitude had greatly diminished.

At this moment, Feng Wuhen's sword light was like a dragon, penetrating the ghost fog and appearing in front of Luo Yan, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at his throat, the sword intent was sharp, and the murderous intent suddenly appeared.

"Your doomsday has come!" Feng Wuhen's voice was as cold as ice, and every word was full of power, hitting Luo Yan's heart.

"Just you!" Luo Yan's eyes were full of murderous intent, and his voice became hoarse and crazy.

"Blood sacrifice of the netherworld, with my soul, I will sacrifice the netherworld, all ghosts obey my orders!" Luo Yan's originally green eyes instantly turned blood red, and countless wailing ghost faces began to emerge in the ghost energy surrounding him. These ghosts seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, frantically gathering towards Luo Yan, and finally merged into his body. The netherworld Dao domain instantly expanded hundreds of times, making the entire nine-star formation shaky. The netherworld ghost energy was as heavy as substance, almost solidifying the space.

"Netherworld ghost hand, kill!"

Luo Yan roared, and a huge netherworld ghost hand condensed from his body in an instant. It was as black as ink, with dark green light wrapped around its fingers, carrying the breath of death, and suddenly grabbed Feng Wuhen.

"Wind sword domain, infinite sword intent!" Feng Wuhen shouted in a low voice, and the sword domain suddenly expanded, confronting the netherworld ghost hand head-on. The collision between the two caused a deafening roar, and the sword light and ghost energy intertwined, cutting the surrounding space into pieces.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, Feng Wuhen was blown away along with his sword.

Luo Yan's figure flashed, intending to expand the victory. At this critical moment, Li Mu was not idle and hurriedly changed the formation.

"The stars are rotating, the nine turns are reincarnated, suppress!" Li Mu's voice echoed in the nine-star trap formation. The nine stars seemed to respond to his call and began to move in a mysterious trajectory. Ten thousand star powers turned into soft and tenacious power, gradually forming a cage made of star power around Luo Yan.

This cage is different from the previous light column attack. It is more complex and more solid. Every ray of star power contains the core law of the Nine Stars Array, which constantly consumes Luo Yan's power and suppresses the violent ghost energy in his body.

"Bastard, break it for me!"

Luo Yan roared violently and used all his strength to stimulate the ghost power in his body, trying to break through the shackles of the star cage. However, inside the cage, the star power seemed to have life, and became tighter as he struggled. Every trace of ghost power would be quickly absorbed when it touched the star power and converted into the reinforcement force of the cage.

"Xiaobai! Help me!"

Li Mu's face changed slightly. The Nine Stars Array was in danger of being broken under this fierce confrontation, so he asked Xiaobai for help as soon as possible.

Upon hearing the order, Xiaobai flapped his wings, and his figure instantly turned into a dazzling stream of light. His figure appeared beside Luo Yan, and his mouth opened, and a terrifying soul-devouring power burst out from his mouth.

This soul-devouring power, like ice in the abyss, has the dual properties of purification and devouring, and instantly reacted violently with the netherworld ghost energy in the star cage. The moment the netherworld ghost energy came into contact with the soul-devouring power, it seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, emitting bursts of shrill wails, and was quickly eroded and melted by it.

Feeling this sudden and fatal threat, Luo Yan's face changed drastically. The netherworld ghost power in his body seemed to be restrained by this power, and could no longer run rampant like before. He tried to mobilize more power to resist, but the double attack of the star cage and the soul-devouring power made him feel unprecedented pressure.

"Get out of my way!"

Luo Yan's face changed suddenly, and he waved his hand. A black sickle suddenly condensed out of the void, which was entangled with a strong netherworld ghost energy and exuded a palpitating breath of death. He swung the black sickle and slashed at Xiaobai, trying to get rid of this terrible insect.

Xiaobai was extremely agile. Facing Luo Yan's chaotic and rapid attack, he did not flinch. Instead, he twisted his body and turned into an almost invisible stream of light, skillfully avoiding the sharp edge of the black sickle again and again. At the same time, the soul-devouring power in his mouth did not weaken, but became more turbulent, rushing towards Luo Yan like a tide.

Seeing that Luo Yan was completely attracted by Xiaobai, Feng Wuhen's eyes lit up, and the spiritual power in his body surged like a river, and the Daojun sword intent gathered at the tip of the sword. (End of this chapter)
