Chapter 380: Chapter 233: Ten Thousand Swords Mountain

Li Mu was preparing to refine an array artifact capable of generating a Sword Domain, bearing tens of thousands of Spirit Swords, and also accompanied by the ’Sword Mountain’ of Heavy Principle.

This concept for a Tier Six Spirit Treasure was incredibly grand, and the possibility of failure was extremely high.

However, if successfully refined, its power would also be extraordinary.

Li Mu took a deep breath, selected other spiritual materials, summoned Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, chanted techniques repeatedly to set up the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire Refining Furnace.

“Celestial Fire Furnace, condense!” Li Mu shouted sternly.

The Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix disassembled and swiftly condensed in mid-air into a three-dimensional Purple Gold Fire Furnace.

He placed the Tier Seven Spirit Ore – Meteor Crystal Core into the Celestial Fire Furnace and began melting it.

However, the material, hardness, and fire resistance of the Tier Seven Spirit Ore – Meteor Crystal Core far exceeded other spiritual materials. After an hour, only the surface barely turned red under the grilling of the Tier Seven – Extreme Yang Celestial Fire.

Seeing this scene, Li Mu frowned slightly. The Meteor Crystal Core, this Tier Seven Spirit Ore, seemed to exceed his current scope of artifact refining. Even melting it was so challenging; setting up artifact patterns, artifact arrays, and constructing artifact momentum within it was no ordinary difficulty.

This time, the failure rate of artifact refining increased by a few fractions.

It was still early, and Li Mu hesitated about whether to give up on this artifact refining.

However, at that moment, a burst of Purple Gold Flame erupted inside the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, efficiently melting the Meteor Crystal Core.

Witnessing this, Li Mu’s complexion changed slightly. Through the perception of the Spirit Artifact Seal, it seemed as though the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire was enraged. There had never been anything it couldn’t melt, and the Meteor Crystal Core, clearly not among such things, inadvertently angered the short-tempered Extreme Yang Celestial Fire. Without Li Mu needing to enhance it with much Spiritual Power, the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire erupted with origin firepower, frantically tempering the Meteor Crystal Core.

Soon, under the frenzied firepower boost of the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, the Meteor Crystal Core finally couldn’t withstand its temperature and started melting, liquefying!

Seeing this scene, Li Mu didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. Originally intending to terminate this artifact refining session, now, with an arrow on the bowstring, he had no choice but to shoot.

Li Mu took out two bottles of Tier Five Recovery Pill and Creation Pill from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, consumed them in advance, and then activated the Star Nebula Observation Method and the Yin Yang Five Elements Scripture simultaneously, channeling strands of Spiritual Power and Divine Thought into the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, assisting the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire with the Meteor Crystal Core.

Inside the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, the enormous cyan stone, over ten feet high and thirty to forty feet wide – the Meteor Crystal Core, continuously melted, transforming into a mass of silvery metallic liquid, exuding a ponderous aura.

Li Mu extended his Divine Thought fully, infusing spirit patterns one by one, coalescing artifact patterns, and constructing the artifact’s momentum based on the Profound Celestial Sword Array, nurturing the artifact spirit within the artifact array, while not forgetting to leverage the unique characteristics of the Meteor Crystal Core to construct the Heavy Dao Principle’s artifact essence.

A surge of radiant Spirit Light continuously emanated from the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace.

Li Mu multitasked, supporting the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire while refining the artifact and coalescing the artifact patterns. At the same time, he manipulated over a thousand Tier Four and Five Spirit Swords, drawing Sword Intent, and injecting it into the ’Sword Mountain Artifact Embryo’, catalyzing the Sword Momentum of the ’Sword Mountain’ artifact spirit, …

Soon, the entire Yin Yang Five Elements continuously radiated terrifying temperatures and an ominous Sword Intent, day after day, without pause.

With a “pop”, a pill bottle dropped to the ground.

The ground was already piled with dozens of pill bottles by now.

With the help of a large number of Tier Five Spirit Pills, Li Mu endured thirteen difficult days, continuously outputting Spiritual Power, depleting Divine Thought and energy, wholeheartedly devoted to refining the ’Sword Mountain’ Spirit Treasure.

At this point, the ’Sword Mountain’ artifact embryo was taking shape. Next came the final stage of artifact refining, accommodating ten thousand swords, coalescing the momentum of the Sword Array, and birthing the Sword Spirit, the critical moment for success or failure.

It all came down to this, the origin of the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire was nearly exhausted. After this artifact refining session, it would be a while before it could be used again.

Li Mu, pale-faced with his mind greatly exhausted, couldn’t delay any longer!

Li Mu gritted his teeth, multitasking to maintain the Spiritual Power consumption of the Celestial Fire Refining, while at the same time fully extending Divine Thought, focusing on each Tier Four and Tier Five Spirit Sword nearby, urging them to throw themselves into the Sword Mountain.

In response to their master’s command, one by one, the Tier Four and Tier Five Spirit Swords, like moths to a flame, followed the whistling Sword Light and plunged into the Celestial Fire Refining Furnace, onto the cyan metallic ’Spirit Mountain’ artifact embryo.

One sword, ten swords, a hundred swords, …

More than a thousand Spirit Swords merged into the cyan ’Spirit Mountain’. After time brewed, soon, an awe-inspiring Sword Intent rapidly rose, suddenly, and with incredible force.

This Sword Intent was dreamlike, ethereal, seeming to have a life of its own, elegant like rolling hills and flowing water, effortlessly natural.

This Sword Intent was as fickle as the wind, elusive, at times light as a feather, at times like a raging storm, tumultuous.

This Sword Intent was as soft as silk, Sword Qi delicate as veils, …

This Sword Intent varied in speed, lightness, and heaviness, ever-shifting and unpredictable, …

…

Li Mu sensed its existence, his mind trembling, as he beckoned, a cyan hill appeared, exuding a ’heaviness’, with a sharp, indestructible edge like a sword.

The Celestial Fire Refining Furnace disintegrated, transforming into a sapped Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix, plunging into the Celestial Fire Tripod, silent.

Li Mu was completely unaware, his gaze entirely captivated by the ’Cyan Hill’ quietly suspended before him, infused with numerous Tier Five Ruyi Stones, granting it the function of Size at Will.

The ’Cyan Little Spirit’ in front of him was the result of this artifact refining, a Tier Six ’Sword Mountain’ Spirit Treasure incorporating over a thousand Spirit Swords, embodying the principles of both ’Heavy’ and ’Sword Domain’.
