I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 629 - 343: Ancient Teleportation Array (Part 1)

Soon, some terrifying images appeared in Li Mu’s eyes, as if unfolding before him, the result of the Time Fortune Spirit Turtle’s peering into the future, and the Celestial Secret Inference.

...

Celestial Spirit Island, the temporary base of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.

Array Master Lin Fude and a few other Array Masters were urgently summoned here. They were scratching their heads, debating intensely over the layout of a grand Teleportation Array.

Lin Fude held a scroll of an ancient Array Map, his eyebrows tightly knitted and his expression grave. He glanced around, looking at the other Array Masters, each wearing a severe expression, a heavy heart. The difficulty of setting up this Ancient Teleportation Array was extraordinarily high, and everyone felt the immense pressure.

"The difficulty of setting up this Ancient Teleportation Array is truly too high!" one of the Array Masters sighed, his words filled with bitterness and helplessness, clearly feeling overwhelmed by the task.

Another Array Master agreed, "Indeed, maintaining the stability of the Teleportation Array while ensuring it can directly reach the Central State Spirit Realm within such a short time... is nearly impossible."

The challenges they faced were not only technical but also time constraints. The Ancient Teleportation Array’s pattern was only a fragment; many key parts were missing, posing a huge obstacle for them. They needed to fully consider various possible disturbances such as spatial fluctuations, energy leaks, etc., which required extensive time for examination and inference.

Tao Ming, the Array Master of the Illusionary God Sect, looked troubled, gazing at Sword Master Feng of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, helplessly said, "Sword Master Feng, it’s not that we’re not trying our best, but this Ancient Teleportation Array is indeed extraordinary. Our abilities are limited, and we truly are powerless!"

Seeing the helpless expressions of all the Array Masters, Sword Master Feng was equally worried.

Whether this long-distance Teleportation Array could be successfully set up was too crucial; it was vital for connecting the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region with the Central State Spirit Realm. If this Teleportation Array couldn’t be set up quickly, the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region would face the threat of the Demon Abyss without timely support from the Central State, and the consequences would be unthinkable.

Sword Master Feng looked at the Array Masters, smiling gently, patiently encouraging, "I understand this is indeed an exceptionally complex and arduous task, but I beseech all of you to do your utmost so the Central State can transport reinforcements to the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region promptly. Please overcome these challenges soon."

Stopping here, Sword Master Feng looked at them with a determined gaze, urging, "I believe, with your wisdom and experience, you can successfully set up this Teleportation Array. I ask everyone to think harder, brainstorm; there certainly is a solution."

Encouraged by Sword Master Feng, everyone suddenly felt the responsibility on their shoulders more heavily. They showed embarrassed looks, glancing at each other, understanding in their hearts that the task’s difficulty had surpassed their capabilities.

However, as Sword Master Feng said, this Teleportation Array was indeed crucial for the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region; it was key to connecting the Ten Thousand Stars Sea with the Central State Spirit Realm, and the only way to receive timely support from the Central State Spirit Realm.

If the Teleportation Array could not be successfully set up, the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region could not receive support from the Central State Spirit Realm, and facing the attack of the Nine Demons Sect and its Demon Abyssal Forces, downfall would be only a matter of time, concerning the entire existence of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region.

As everyone looked at each other in dismay, powerless, suddenly, Array Master Lin Fude broke the silence, saying, "Actually, there is yet another Array Master in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region. If he could assist, perhaps there is a chance that we could decrypt this Ancient Teleportation Array fragment thoroughly and successfully set it up."

Hearing this, Sword Master Feng’s eyes immediately lit up, his previously furrowed brows also relaxed, revealing a look of expectation, eagerly asking, "Oh? Where is this Array Master? I’ll dispatch someone to invite him right away!"

All the Array Masters also turned to Lin Fude, faces showing curious expressions.

With Lin Fude’s status and accomplishments in the field of arrays, his words were unlikely to be unfounded. However, among those present were almost all famous Array Masters of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region, all invited by the Profound Celestial Sword Sect to assist in setting up this Ancient Teleportation Array. Yet, hearing now of another extraordinarily skilled counterpart’s existence took them by both surprise and anticipation.

"The Array Master who set up Li’s Treasure Tower’s Protection Array," Array Master Lin Fude met their gazes, taking a deep breath, introducing, "The Array Master I am referring to arranged the Tower Protection Array for Li’s Treasure Tower, which is a composite Array. It’s the most formidable Array I’ve ever seen, seamlessly integrating multiple formations, multifaceted and deadly... with such mastery in array formation, his abilities definitely meet the Array Grandmaster level."

Pausing, and looking around at the others, Array Master Lin Fude continued, "If we can persuade him to help, there’s a possibility of succeeding with this Ancient Teleportation Array."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes sparkled with enlightenment, immediately recalling.

"Indeed! I’ve seen Li’s Treasure Tower’s Tower Protection Array too, and it truly opened my eyes!" one of the Array Masters nodded joyfully in agreement.

"Yes! Yes! That’s definitely the work of an Array Grandmaster, astonishing and awe-inspiring!" another Array Master followed with admiration.

The Array Masters present gave high praise to the mysterious Array Master’s skills and accomplishments. If they could enlist this Master’s help, there was hope for successfully setting up the Ancient Teleportation Array.

"Master Lin, do you know which Array Master set up the Protection Array for Li’s Treasure Tower?" Tao Ming asked Array Master Lin Fude with concern, suggesting, "I have immense respect for him, but unfortunately, have never met him."

"That Master is quite mysterious. I don’t know his name or origins either." Lin Fude shook his head, smiling helplessly.

Sword Master Feng was slightly taken aback, looking at Lin Fude with surprise, asking, "Master Lin, even you don’t know this Master’s origins?"

Lin Fude quickly responded, "Yes! This Array Master’s identity is quite mysterious. Sword Master Feng, you could send someone to ask the owner of Li’s Treasure Tower! He surely knows this Array Master."

Sword Master Feng nodded knowingly, chuckling, "Yes, I will send someone right away to invite Li’s Treasure Tower’s owner. As far as I know, the owner is also an Artifact Refining Grandmaster; only, there’s never been time to meet him."

With that said, Sword Master Feng immediately instructed his subordinates to find the owner of Li’s Treasure Tower, hoping to locate the Array Master who set up the Tower Protection Array through him.

Li’s Treasure Tower.

At this moment, Li Mu walked out of the Artifact Refining Room, carrying a heavy heart, fatigue and worry intertwined on his face. His gaze was deep, as though contemplating something important.

The injuries of the Time Fortune Spirit Turtle had fully healed, and its spirituality had surpassed before. In return, the Time Fortune Spirit Turtle performed a Celestial Secret Inference for him, gazing into the river of time. However, what he glimpsed brought several future scenes that had shocked Li Mu for a long time.

In one scene, while fleeing to the Central State Spirit Realm, he encountered a deadly ambush; a Integration Realm Demon Cultivator personally attacked, and all his tamed beasts sacrificed themselves for him, various High-Tier Protective Spiritual Treasures were greatly damaged, though he barely escaped with his life, he was severely wounded, relentlessly pursued along the way.

In another scene, upon fleeing back to the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Realm, narrowly saved by Tianshang and Kun Ling, yet the following days did not improve.

In yet another scene, the Daoist Monarch’s Water Mansion emerged, and the Sealed passage was opened by the Nine Demons Sect, Demon Abyssal Forces invaded the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Realm, reigniting the war.

In the fourth scene, in the battle defending the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Realm, Tianshang and Kun Ling fell one after another, and Li Mu had no choice but to constantly fight and flee with Xue’Er, eventually leading to Xue’Er’s death from unhealable injuries.

...

The various harsh future images continually surged in Li Mu’s mind, overwhelming him with pressure and helplessness.

Li Mu couldn’t help but start pondering how he could change these dire futures.

Just then, a series of urgent footsteps approached swiftly.
