I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm-Chapter 246 - 172: Blood Sea Demon Sword

It’s over!

This time, it seems like we’re doomed!

Faced with dozens of combat puppets at Nascent Soul level strength, the Blood Refining Demon Monarch struggled bitterly, his heart filled with despair, overwhelmed by an unprecedented sense of crisis.

The Blood Refining Demon Monarch was cornered beside a cliff, with his back against a giant rock, passively defending against the punches of the combat puppets.

Even if he burned his essence blood and used his famous ultimate skills - ’Sea of Blood’, ’Blood Shadow Escape’, ’Blood God Avatar’, and other exhausting divine techniques, he still couldn’t escape the siege of the puppets. The puppet master’s divine sense was exceptionally strong, predicting and identifying his techniques in advance, directing the combat puppets to block him.

If he doesn’t eliminate him first, he can’t escape the encirclement of the puppets. And these combat puppets made of Star Wood were difficult for the Blood Demon Sword to damage,....

The Blood Refining Demon Monarch swung his sword repeatedly, blocking the punches of the Star Wood combat puppets, glaring at the puppet master, Li Mu, with murderous intent reaching its peak.

Only by killing him might there be a chance to reverse the situation!

The Blood Refining Demon Monarch decided. Thinking this, he resolved to fight desperately, to grasp a sliver of hope for himself!

Taking advantage of a gap in the encirclement, the Blood Refining Demon Monarch once again performed the ’Blood Shadow Clone’, like a golden cicada shedding its shell, used the Blood Escape Technique, transforming into a streak of blood light, rushing towards Li Mu.

"Did it succeed?"

The Blood Refining Demon Monarch swung the Blood Sea Demon Sword, about to slay him, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

However, the joy on the Blood Refining Demon Monarch’s face quickly froze as he saw the smile on the other’s face, revealing a trace of panic.

"Swish!" with a swoosh, the Blood Refining Demon Crystal’s Blood Sea Demon Sword slashed down fiercely, "bang," and the target turned into a broken wooden log, it was a substitute puppet!

Damn it!

The Blood Refining Demon Monarch’s heart skipped a beat, he turned his head to look and immediately saw a figure appear in front of him, a fist shadow rapidly enlarging before his eyes.

"Bang" a loud crash, the Blood Refining Demon Monarch saw stars, flung into the air by a heavy punch.

The next moment, the group of combat puppets rushed in, fists and feet striking, the sound of flesh-pounding impacts ringing incessantly.

The Blood Refining Demon Monarch’s screams weakened, as under the group assault of the puppets, his body couldn’t withstand the torture, not a single spot unharmed. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

The Blood Refining Demon Monarch resolutely abandoned his body, his Nascent Soul leaving and escaping the encirclement of the puppets.

Seeing this, Li Mu spread his Thunder Wings and flew out, blocking his path.

Li Mu conjured a large hand of Five Elements Spirit Fire, grabbing the Nascent Soul of the Blood Refining Demon Monarch.

Before the Blood Refining Demon Monarch could plead for mercy, Li Mu immediately cast several spiritual power restrictions, sealing his Nascent Soul, and then took out a Soul Absorption Bottle to contain it.

"A Nascent Soul Perfection Realm primordial spirit, Xiaobai, wake up quickly! I’ve prepared top-grade food for you!" Li Mu smiled slightly, retrieving the storage bracelet from the Blood Refining Demon Monarch’s body from a combat puppet.

Li Mu employed divine thought, forcefully erasing the divine soul mark on the storage bracelet, probing inside to find what he needed.

This Blood Refining Demon Monarch practiced Blood Demon Techniques, his storage bracelet contained many blood refining demon artifacts. Swiftly, Li Mu found a demon artifact that stored a vast amount of essence blood, encased in a blood-red ghastly head, containing terrifying Human Race Essence Blood and Demon Beast Essence Blood.

The sheer volume was almost enough to fill a small lake.

How many beings must have been harmed?

Li Mu’s expression turned grim; if not for the need to restore the spirit of the Bloodthirsty Frenzied Flood Dragon’s bones, he would never use such vile materials.

While Li Mu was contemplating, an eerie scene unfolded. The demon sword possessed by the Blood Refining Demon Monarch unexpectedly flew in front of him.

Li Mu frowned slightly, casting a glance over.

[Blood Sea Demon Sword]

[Grade: Tier Five Top-Grade Magical Artifact]

[Attributes: Essence Blood Attraction, Evil Thought Invasion, Bloody Sword Qi, Blood Soul Shock]

[Status: Sword master dead, demon sword artifact spirit severely injured, demon sword blood slave rebellion and breaking free!]

[The Blood Sea Demon Sword, forged from tier five Divinity Transformation bones, Taiyin True Water, and Blood Evil Crystal Stone, nourished by consuming endless blood qi and souls of living beings for a hundred years, its grievance runs deep, ghostly grievances formed by ten thousand souls resulting in soul attacks. Those injured will never heal, their blood qi devoured, eventually becoming nourishment for the demon sword, their divine soul absorbed into the sword becoming sword slaves. This demon sword can advance to tier six by absorbing enough blood qi and souls.]

Under the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the detailed information about this sword appeared in the virtual character box.

With this, Li Mu understood.

Because the demon sword’s master had just died, and its artifact spirit was injured, temporarily sealed, this sword, having devoured countless sword slaves born of grievances, now uncontrolled, its sword body filled with endless vengeful spirits, had come before Li Mu, pleading for assistance, hoping to be freed from the sword’s control.

Li Mu infused his divine sense into the demon sword and ’saw’ a sword body densely packed with vengeful spirits spanning heaven and earth, with people, beasts, all showing expressions of agony, roaring painfully, struggling desperately to break free from the sword’s control.

Faced with the pleas of so many vengeful spirits, Li Mu felt a twinge of compassion,

Li Mu immediately took out five tier five top-grade spiritual swords from his storage compartment, gathering the power of the five elements, merging them into one mighty Five Elements Giant Sword, which slashed fiercely at the floating Blood Sea Demon Sword.

"Ding," a crisp sound, the Five Elements Giant Sword struck the body of the tier five Blood Sea Demon Sword, heaven and earth resonating!

The Blood Sea Demon Sword fractured upon impact, the demon pattern shattered, losing its ability to bind, and in an instant, numerous sword slave vengeful spirits constrained by the demon sword burst forth.

Li Mu drew a stack of Exorcism Talismans and Rebirth Talismans, scattering them to dispel the grievances of all the vengeful spirits.

With the grievances dissolved, the Blood Evil Qi enveloping all the spirits disappeared, their resentment purified, all vengeful spirits emitted a faint white glow.

The ten thousand spirits were deeply grateful, bowing in salute to Li Mu, their forms gradually fading and dispersing into the world.

Li Mu retracted the Five Elements Spirit Sword, sensing an ethereal clarity of thought after the vengeful spirits expressed their thanks. Nonetheless, to Li Mu, everything he did was merely a minor effort.

Li Mu smiled slightly, dismissing the matter, beginning to collect the individually constructed Star Wood combat puppets while also inspecting the injuries they sustained.

Each Star Wood combat puppet was inscribed with a Star Protection Array, providing excellent protection for the puppet’s body,

Upon inspection, the tier five Blood Sea Demon Sword hadn’t left any fatal structural damage on them. However, the consumption of spirit stones was substantial; such intense battles depleted 36 top-grade Spirit Stones, sustaining them for merely two or three encounters at most.

Nonetheless, this real combat trial confirmed the formidable combat power of these puppets, leaving Li Mu quite satisfied.

Replacing them with new spirit stones, Li Mu stored the puppets into the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, then proceeded to pack up the array banners, the array discs—especially the tier four Trapping Dragon Array Disc, which was a very effective array artifact. In future confrontations, setting up this array artifact would ensure enemies couldn’t escape.

As Li Mu collected the Trapping Dragon Array Artifact, he maintained his divine thought outward, suddenly detecting eight powerful spiritual power fluctuations forming a circle, enclosing the area and rapidly advancing towards him.

Li Mu paused momentarily, frowning, pondering something.

From the clothing and attire of the newcomers, Li Mu roughly guessed their origin, hesitating on what identity to use when interacting with them.

Soon, Li Mu made his decision, his divine sense rested on the tier five Spirit Fox Mask, removing the disguise, revealing his true form, a handsome, young face, appearing to be in his early twenties.

Li Mu stood in mid-air, gaze calm, awaiting the newcomers.

Soon, eight robust auras, all Nascent Soul True Monarchs, rushed in and surrounded Linggu from all sides, their eyes scanning the whole Linggu battlefield, finally curiously examining the floating Li Mu.

"What happened here? Where are you from, fellow Daoist?"

An elder in a cyan Taoist robe with white eyebrows and silver hair flew before Li Mu, scrutinizingly asking.
