Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor

Whoohoo!

As Li Mu was led through the passage by the beautiful Daoist cultivator, he frantically collected metal from the outside.

"Great! Hahaha! This is all Spirit-Suppressing Gold! The lowest grade of Spirit-Suppressing Gold is at least mid-level Spirit! It's definitely a top-quality rare metal! Moreover, because it possesses the property of naturally suppressing spiritual power, Spirit-Suppressing Gold is also one of the best materials for immortal cultivators to use for setting up arrays!"

The Wuxing Gold-Eating Armadillo was overjoyed.

"It can suppress spiritual energy? Holy crap, if it were used to create defensive magical artifacts, wouldn't that mean the artifacts themselves would possess the power to weaken and neutralize enemy attacks?"

Li Mu asked in surprise.

Now, as a level four weapon refiner, he is much more sensitive to weapon refining than before, and he will immediately think of weapon refining when he sees good metal materials.

"That's natural; this Spirit-Suppressing Gold is an excellent material for refining weapons."

"Um, Wuxing, I can't give you all the materials I collected this time! These are such precious metals, I need to keep some for myself."

"Don't worry, I didn't say you had to give it all to me! We can just split it equally," Wuxing said directly.

"Equal split? You did nothing and expect to get half just by sitting there? Aren't you being a bit too greedy? At most, it'll be 30/70, you get 30, I get 70!"

Li Mu said with a forced smile.

Li Mu had no need to fear this Wandering Gold-Eating Armadillo, after all, the other party had sworn a soul oath to him not to harm him.

"No way! If it weren't for me, you wouldn't even recognize these metals! What would you be collecting then! Split them 40/60! Hmph! Otherwise, I won't help you when you cross that Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi layer later!"

"Uh, okay, okay, 46 it is. You take 4, I'll take 6!"

Li Mu had no choice but to agree, as he might actually need Wu Xing's help later.

Although the passage didn't take very long, Li Mu was quick to collect metals. In just a few minutes, he had collected a large amount of Spirit-Suppressing Gold.

Wanhe told Li Mu that this metal was indeed much more valuable than top-grade spirit stones, and the total value of the Spirit-Suppressing Gold he had collected this time was at least 5000 billion top-grade spirit stones!

Even if Li Mu gets 60%, that's still at least 300 billion!

He's made another huge windfall.

After passing through the metal barrier passage, Li Mu and his group of five arrived at the second sealing barrier, which terrified the four Dao cultivators so much that they dared not cross the line.

Whoohoo!

Click click click!

Sure enough, Li Mu discovered that in front of him was a dark and gloomy void. Powerful spiritual energy surged out from the dark void, causing the beautiful Daoist cultivator's protective light shield to crack and almost collapse.

And this is still outside the barrier; if someone were to enter, the light shield would certainly not be able to withstand it.

It is evident how terrifying the so-called Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi in the void of this barrier layer is.

Without non-Five Elements supernatural powers, Li Mu's current strength would probably be instantly reduced to nothingness upon entering.

"Master, I have sensed a strong Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi! This barrier in the void is indeed filled with this most powerful Qi in the world!"

A-Ying immediately spoke in Li Mu's mind, sounding very excited.

For a magical artifact whose main power is to collect various kinds of energy between heaven and earth, encountering such extremely rare heaven and earth energy is like Wuxing encountering the most precious metal in the world, so naturally he cannot suppress his excitement.

"Ah Ying, are you sure you can collect this kind of violent qi?" Li Mu asked.

"Master, rest assured, although I am currently in a sealed state, refining the Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi, one of the five strongest Qi in the world, will be quite difficult and will take a considerable amount of time. However, collecting it will not be a problem! Of course, the premise is that Master needs to protect me, since my current strength may not be enough to withstand the strangulation of such a powerful Qi," A-Ying replied.

"Yes, don't worry, as long as I'm alright, you'll definitely be alright too. I'm just a little curious, if your magic weapon itself couldn't withstand this Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi, will it be able to withstand it after it's collected in your spatial dimension?"

Li Mu asked curiously.

"Yes, Master. After I collect it, it will naturally be able to suppress the power of the Qi."

"Okay, I understand. Then seize the opportunity and collect as much as you can!"

Li Mu did not ask any further questions.

This rare elemental energy is an absolute treasure. If A-Ying can successfully refine it and then infuse it into Li Mu, it will greatly enhance all of his supernatural abilities and spells, including his physical strength!

"Li Mu, the void ahead is the second barrier of this seal, and also the most powerful and terrifying one. The four of us are trapped here because of this barrier. The Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi within it is one of the five strongest Qi in the world, with extremely terrifying killing power. However, this Qi still belongs to the Five Elements, so your non-Five Elements defensive abilities should be able to withstand it. However, I must remind you that the Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi has extremely strong killing power against the primordial soul, which means that it may also have a certain soul attack power. You should understand that soul attack power is a kind of power between the Five Elements and non-Five Elements, so this kind of attack power will inevitably have a significant impact on your non-Five Elements defense." The beautiful Daoist cultivator looked at Li Mu solemnly and said.

"This means that your non-Five Elements defenses may not be able to provide absolute protection against this Qi. Therefore, the strength of your Yuan Soul defense may ultimately determine whether you can successfully cross this barrier."

"The skinny Taoist priest added."

"I understand. I will do my best!"

Li Mu responded.

"Alright, Li Mu, now use your non-Five Elements Divine Power to set up a defensive array light barrier to take the four of us in, and then directly enter this second barrier void!"

The beautiful Daoist gave the order.

"Senior, if I lead you into this void and we ultimately cannot withstand the Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi, and our defenses are breached, will you be able to escape unscathed?"

After Li Mu had fully set up the most powerful protective array shield, he asked again.

"That depends on how deep you can take us into this barrier void. If it's too deep, we might not have time to get out and we'll all perish inside this void barrier, being strangled by the Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi," the burly female Daoist replied.

"Yes, there are certainly risks involved. But this is also our only chance to escape. Taking risks is inevitable," the obese Daoist nodded.

"Li Mu, if the four of us are all in dire straits, you'd better save yourself! This will definitely be an adventure for you as well," the beautiful Daoist said.

Upon learning that these four powerful beings might also die in this Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi Layer, Li Mu's heart couldn't help but tighten.

"Wu Xing, do you know anything about this Nine Purple Heavenly Fiend Qi?"

Li Mu then used telepathy to ask Wu Xing.

"To be honest, this is the first time I've ever heard of this kind of qi. I've never seen it before, but if it's a qi with one of the five elements, then I might have a significant advantage in resisting it. If this qi didn't have any soul attack power, it would be much easier to deal with. Right now, this soul attack power is the most troublesome and the biggest variable. It all depends on whether our primordial spirit's defense can withstand it."

Wu Xing's response did not completely alleviate Li Mu's worries.

But now that the die is cast, there is no turning back. Even if the void before us is a den of dragons and tigers, we have to grit our teeth and charge in!
