I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 645 - 351: Seven Profound Sect (Part 2)

"Array and Artifact Dual Mastery, Artifact Refining Grandmaster, Array Grandmaster!"

"Such strength to become the Sect Master of our Seven Profound Sect!"

"Is it true!"

The hall resounded with exclamations, everyone was extremely excited and couldn’t help but discuss eagerly.

Tang Shihua’s gaze at Li Mu changed several times, the resentment hidden in his eyes instantly dissipated, replaced by incredulity and a sense of relief.

The Spirit Land of Seven Gods Mountain ranked among the higher tiers within the Profound Celestial Sword Sect’s diverse Spirit Lands. He had spent a significant amount of resources and favors to acquire this land, and suddenly being replaced was naturally displeasing to Tang Shihua.

However, the person who replaced him came with such an esteemed identity and background, Tang Shihua’s original feelings of resentment vanished immediately. In the face of someone whose strength and status far surpassed his own, any rational person would choose to bow in submission and foster a good relationship with this grandmaster.

Observing the astonishment and spirited discussions of the crowd, Qiu Yuanhong nodded satisfactorily, and raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down.

Seeing this, the crowd returned to their seats and quieted down.

"Elder Li, I entrust Seven Gods Mountain to you." Qiu Yuanhong looked at Li Mu, reminding him as he left, "Once you’ve stabilized the Seven Profound Sect, don’t forget to complete those two array formation tasks."

Li Mu nodded in understanding and calmly replied, "Understood, as soon as the time comes, I will find you."

The domain controlled by the Profound Iron Sword Sect is vast, and many places like the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region are distant and perilous, requiring the setup of an Ancient Teleportation Array. However, setting up such an array is not a simple task; the spiritual materials needed are precious yet rare,

After careful selection, there are two locations needing the installation of the Ancient Teleportation Array, and naturally, these two tasks also fell to Li Mu.

Subsequently, Qiu Yuanhong gave further instructions to Tang Shihua and the high-level individuals of the Seven Profound Sect before leaving Seven Gods Mountain under the courteous escort of the crowd.

After seeing off Qiu Yuanhong, Tang Shihua and the high-level personnel of the Seven Profound Sect looked at Li Mu, expressions complicated, with some showing respect, some curiosity, and some in contemplation... they were momentarily unsure how to face the new Sect Master.

Looking at Li Mu, Tang Shihua was filled with mixed emotions. He had once harbored grievances against this sudden replacement, but upon learning that this individual was a grandmaster of Array and Artifact Dual Mastery, highly valued by the Sect, personally brought into the sect by Sword Master Feng, Tang Shihua clearly understood the gap between himself and the other, compelling him to bow in submission as a sign of respect.

"Elder Li, let me introduce you to several elders of the Seven Profound Sect first!" Tang Shihua looked at Li Mu invitingly.

"Okay, thank you, Elder Tang!" Li Mu gratefully replied.

"This is the Second Elder—Fang Shixin, Peak Master of Golden Sword Peak, and also the Hall Master of Law Enforcement Hall, responsible for law enforcement and disciplinary matters within the sect. He is known for his integrity!" Tang Shihua nodded, introducing the middle-aged man standing to his right.

Fang Shixin was a middle-aged man, donned in a golden robe, with a resolute face and eyes sharp as a sword, possessing the cultivation of the Divinity Transformation Initial Stage.

"Greetings, Sect Master Li!" Fang Shixin stared directly at Li Mu, saluting and greeting.

Li Mu hurriedly returned the courtesy, "Elder Fang, no need for excessive formality!"

Tang Shihua then introduced another elder.

A red-robed elder slowly stepped forward, his face energetic, eyes piercing, full of Essence Qi, exuding a familiar aura to Li Mu—the aura peculiar to an Artifact Refiner.

"This is the Third Elder—Qin Wentong, Peak Master of Fire God Peak, and concurrently the Hall Master of Artifact Refining Hall," Tang Shihua introduced, elaborating: "Elder Qin is an Artifact Refining Master, proficient in refining various Spiritual Artifacts and Magical Artifacts, with significant strength."

Qin Wentong stepped forward to Li Mu, saluting, "Greetings Sect Master Li, I look forward to your guidance in the Path of Artifact Refining in the future."

Qin Wentong’s eyes gleamed with fervor, clearly admiring Li Mu’s identity as an Artifact Refining Grandmaster, eagerly hoping to exchange insights with him.

Li Mu smiled and returned the courtesy, "Elder Qin, you are too kind, we can learn from each other!"

Tang Shihua pointed to another elder, a forty-something man with a graceful demeanor and deep eyes, and introduced to Li Mu, "This is the Fourth Elder—Zhong Zilin, Peak Master of Wood Element Peak, also serving as the Hall Master of Hundred Herbs Hall."

At this point, Tang Shihua’s tone revealed a few notes of respect, "Elder Zhong is a well-known person in Seven Profound Sect, primarily responsible for collecting and cultivating various rare spiritual grasses and elixirs. Moreover, he has profound knowledge in Alchemy and Talisman Making. Many disciples hope to gain his guidance."

Zhong Zilin heard Tang Shihua’s introduction, smiled and saluted to Li Mu, "Greetings, Sect Master!"

Li Mu nodded and smiled, returning the courtesy, "Elder Zhong, no need for excessive formality!"

Tang Shihua proceeded to introduce another elder. A Divinity Transformation Female Cultivator stepped forward promptly, exuding grace, her expression lively, dressed in a green robe, with a gentle appearance and eyes clear as springs.

"This is the Fifth Elder—Ge Xinyu, Peak Master of Spiritual Spring Peak, and Hall Master of Dharma Transmission Hall, responsible for the cultivation and teachings of disciples within the sect, deeply loved by the disciples," Tang Shihua introduced to Li Mu.

"Greetings Sect Master Li!" Ge Xinyu stepped forward, her voice gentle and pleasant, saluting Li Mu.

Li Mu slightly smiled, nodding in return, "Elder Ge, you are too kind!"

Tang Shihua continued to introduce another sect elder, as a burly man stepped forward with great strides, dressed in black, with a resolute appearance, the Hall Master of Contribution Hall, Nangong Chenxing.

"This is the Sixth Elder—Nangong Chenxing, Peak Master of Giant Rock Peak, also serving as the Hall Master of Contribution Hall," Tang Shihua introduced respectfully, "Elder Nangong is responsible for resource allocation and contribution point exchange matters within the sect, being one of the key managers within the sect."

Upon hearing Tang Shihua’s introduction, Nangong Chenxing immediately saluted and greeted Li Mu, "Greetings, Sect Master Li!"

Subsequently, Tang Shihua continued to introduce other elders, including a woman in a white robe with an elegant demeanor and noble temperament, the Pavilion Master of Hundred Spirits Pavilion, Liu Ruyu.

A middle-aged man in a blue robe, with a gentle face and deep eyes, the Hall Master of Refining Spirit Hall, Wen Bisheng, ...

With Tang Shihua’s introduction, Li Mu memorized the core management elders of Seven Profound Sect and kept their roles and responsibilities within the sect well in mind.

Shortly afterward, to provide Li Mu with a more comprehensive and profound understanding of Seven Profound Sect, Tang Shihua decided to personally accompany him to explore every corner of Seven Gods Mountain, walking side by side, weaving through the mist-laden peaks.

First, they arrived at Golden Sword Peak. Standing at the peak, Li Mu immediately felt the Gold Essence Qi sweeping in from all sides, like Sword Qi, permeating his body.

Then, they reached Fire God Peak, where the flames were intensely hot, seemingly scorching the very air into distortions, filled with dense Fire Element Qi, atop the volcanic summit stood a Spirit Tower, where numerous disciples were busily engaging in Artifact Refining with the Earth Fire drawn from the tower, amidst a vibrant atmosphere.

Subsequently, they passed through Wood Element Peak, a place teeming with vitality and spiritual energy, where various exotic flowers and grasses were abundant. Li Mu took a deep breath, feeling as though his entire being was cleansed by the refreshing air.

Further on, they arrived at Spiritual Spring Peak, where a mountain-top spiritual spring formed a cascading waterfall, gushing clear Spiritual Spring Water, the Spiritual Qi dense and misty. Standing by the waterfall, Li Mu could distinctly feel the immense Water Element Spiritual Qi contained within.

...

Li Mu found himself increasingly fond of the Spirit Land of Seven Gods Mountain. Thanks to the presence of the Array of Yin Yang Five Elements Spirit Gathering, after thousands of years, the attributes of the five elements and Yin Yang within the seven main peaks had become particularly distinct, making it very convenient to cultivate high-tier spirit plants in the Spirit Fields of each peak without much effort.

...

During the visit, Tang Shihua provided Li Mu with detailed insights into the situation of disciples in various peaks of the sect.

The hierarchy within the sect is distinct, almost mirroring that of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, with the seven main peaks being the core area of the Seven Profound Sect, where only Nascent Soul True Monarchs and Golden Core True Inheritance can cultivate. Meanwhile, the lower-level disciples, Outer Disciples, are distributed across other Spirit Peaks for their cultivation. They earn cultivation resources for the sect and themselves through fulfilling sect missions, cultivating spiritual plants, raising spirit beasts, etc.
