Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor

"I have some good news to share with everyone."

Li Mu smiled and looked at Xue Yunzi and the other two.

"Brother Mu, what's the good news?"

Zhang Yu quickly blinked her beautiful big eyes and asked.

"We might be about to strike it rich!"

"Make a fortune out of nowhere? Ah Mu, what do you mean by that?"

Zhang Jie asked curiously.

"Brother Mu, have you found something? Could it be that another group of assassins has come to deliver their spoils?" Xue Yunzi asked hurriedly.

"Hehe, a windfall is right beneath our feet. There's a huge spirit stone vein underground."

Li Mu grinned and pointed to the ground.

"Huh? A spirit stone vein? My God! Amu, really?" Zhang Jie asked in astonishment, his eyes wide.

"Of course it's true."

"Wow! A spirit stone mine! We're really going to be rich! Hahaha!" Zhang Yu clapped her hands and jumped up with joy.

"Brother Mu, why can't I detect anything? It's like my soul sense is blocked by a layer of mist."

After investigating, Xue Yunzi asked Li Mu.

"Yes, the spirit stone vein is located beneath the mist barrier. This mist barrier is likely a restriction set up by some kind of demonic beast. After all, the spiritual energy in the underground space where the spirit stone vein is located is extremely dense, so it's not surprising that demonic beasts might be hiding there."

Li Mu said.

"So, to obtain the spirit stones from this spirit stone vein, we need to eliminate the hidden demonic beasts within?"

Zhang Jie asked.

"Well, we don't yet know the strength or race of the demonic beasts in this spirit stone mine."

"Brother Mu, the wilderness aura of this trial ground is very strong, and we're almost at the core area. We still can't be careless. After all, anything is possible in this world. Weren't those four terrifying Dao cultivators before? Who would have thought that such powerful beings would be hidden beneath this trial ground? So, even if we're going to mine this spirit stone vein, we still need to proceed with caution. What if that demonic beast is also a terrifying being?"

Xue Yunzi looked at Li Mu and reminded him.

"Yes, Sister-in-law Yun is right. We can't be careless."

Zhang Jie nodded and said.

"Okay, let's set up our defenses, then sneak underground to see what that isolation barrier is."

As Li Mu spoke, he first set up a protective light shield around his body, and the other three also prepared their defenses before diving underground together.

Whoosh!

Soon, the four of them arrived at a depth of more than seventy meters underground, where they were indeed blocked by a layer of gray mist.

When Li Mu probed the mist on the ground with his soul sense, he couldn't quite make out what it was. But when he went underground and examined it up close, he discovered that it wasn't miasma at all, but rather a kind of isolation barrier.

However, this restriction is rather peculiar; it is not a common array restriction, but rather a strange and obscure restriction set up using some special method.

Even with Li Mu's expertise in restrictive formations, he wouldn't be able to figure it out in a short time.

Zhang Jie tried to attack the fog layer, but no matter how he attacked, it was as if light was shining on a mirror, and he was directly reflected back by the strange fog.

Xue Yunzi also tried to enter directly, but was blocked and repelled by the repulsive force in the fog, and had no way to enter.

Needless to say, this seemingly ordinary gray mist barrier is very difficult to pass through, which is the fundamental reason why this huge spirit stone vein has not been discovered for countless years.

This also proves that Ah Ying's ability to sense the energy of heaven and earth is truly extraordinary; even through such a strange and insulated layer of mist, she can still sense it.

"Amu, this restriction is very strange! I can't tell what type of restriction it is at all."

Zhang Jie frowned and said.

"Hmm, I've never seen this kind of protective isolation barrier before." Li Mu nodded slightly.

Xue Yunzi and Zhang Yu also said they didn't recognize what kind of restriction it was.

"Wanhe, Aying, do you recognize this restriction?"

Li Mu used his spiritual sense to question the two artifact spirits.

"Master, although I don't recognize this restriction, I'm certain it's a kind of innate divine ability or unique secret technique of some kind of being. It's definitely not an ordinary restriction. This kind of restriction will probably be very difficult to break," Wanhe replied.

"Yes, I agree with Wanhe. This restriction is a rare one, not a regular one. Only the being who set it up could break it. Because it clearly contains the aura of that being's primordial spirit and bloodline, it is highly likely that it was set up by a natural divine power."

Ah Ying also said.

"A restriction set up by a divine innate ability? Holy crap, if that's the case, it's basically unbreakable!"

Li Mu couldn't help but feel greatly disappointed.

I thought I was going to make a fortune, but now the huge fortune is right in front of me and I have no chance of getting it!

"It's not impossible to get it."

Just as Li Mu was feeling disappointed, Wu Xing suddenly transmitted a message to him through his soul.

"Wu Xing, do you have a way to break this strange restriction?" Li Mu's eyes lit up and he quickly asked.

"This barrier is indeed very strange, and I'm certain it was set up using my innate divine power. This barrier is also a kind of divine power that lies between the Five Elements and non-Five Elements, so even using non-Five Elements divine powers cannot forcefully penetrate it. However, strangely, I sensed a familiar aura within this barrier. This aura should come from the primordial spirit and bloodline aura of the being that set up the barrier," Wuxing said.

"Ah? A familiar aura? Could the creature inside be someone you knew?"

"No, it can't be an old acquaintance; it's more likely a member of my own clan, very possibly one of my own kind!"

"Holy crap! No way? There's another Elementless Gold-Eating Armadillo living here?! But Elementless, aren't you non-Five Elements beings? Why is your innate ability somewhere between the Five Elements and non-Five Elements?"

After his initial surprise, Li Mu asked, puzzled.

"Yes, it's very likely, and I was quite surprised myself. To be honest, encountering a fellow being is extremely rare for us, the formless race! And your doubts are precisely an important basis for my speculation. Because the innate supernatural abilities of us, the formless race, are all like this, a kind of supernatural ability that lies between the five elements and non-five elements. In this way, neither the five elements' supernatural abilities nor non-five elements' supernatural abilities can harm us, making our innate supernatural abilities almost unbreakable and undefendable."

Wu Xing explained.

"I see! So, Wuxing, you also possess a similar innate divine ability? Ability to suppress the isolating force within this restriction that lies between the Five Elements and non-Five Elements?"

Li Mu asked again.

"That's right. Although I can't use this innate divine ability to set up restrictions, I do possess offensive innate divine abilities, which should be able to greatly suppress the isolating power within this restriction. In this way, I can force my way through. Moreover, judging from the bloodline aura I sense, the creature hidden here shouldn't be very powerful, definitely not stronger than me."

Wu Xing said with a confident tone.
