[Five Elements Yin Yang Spirit Gathering Array (Mother) - One of the Golden Array Pillars]

[Grade: Tier Seven Array]

[Attributes: Gather the Five Elements, Accumulate Yin and Yang, Dual Array (Mother and Sub-arrays), Gather Chaos, ...]

[With the Five Elements as the core foundation, supplemented by Tier Seven Profound Yellow Stone, Tier Seven Jianmu Root, Tier Seven Indeterminate Spirit Water,Tier Seven Flame Crystal, Tier Seven Dusk of the Earth, engrave Yin and Yang together to form this array, acting as the mother array, gathering Yin and Yang, the power of the Five Elements, which can cooperate with the sub-array: Five Elements Shifting Array, capable of shifting the Five Elements Qi and breaking through the Space-Time Barrier to reach a certain Secret Realm.]

The sub-array - Five Elements Shifting Array, is located in the Sect Treasure Vault, where previously, Li Mu couldn’t afford time to repair due to insufficient cultivation.

Now, Li Mu has a clear plan in mind to repair and activate this Five Elements Shifting Array, enter the Secret Realm therein, which might provide him with a place rich in Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi with intense law fluctuations to assist in his seclusion breakthrough to condense the Dharma Realm, and promote to the Integration Realm.

However, before condensing the Dharma Realm, he must first visit the remaining Extreme Secret Realms and retrieve the remaining six Divinity Transformation Avatars.

...

Days later, Li Mu took the teleportation array and appeared in the Cangyuan Secret Realm - Land of Extreme Wood.

As the teleportation array’s light dissipated, Li Mu was welcomed by a completely distinct and peculiar world, where the sky presented a deep green, the forest vast and endless beneath his feet, growing numerous exceptional Spirit Plants, the air filled with rich woody fragrance and wood spirit power, and at a distance, a towering ancient tree stood majestically, leaves forming a canopy, seemingly the guardian of the entire secret realm, exuding an ancient and mighty aura.

"Master! Finally you’re here! I thought, you forgot about me."

Upon sensing Li Mu’s aura, the Cyan Jade Ginseng King promptly transformed and appeared beside him, taking the shape of a tall, white-haired like snow middle-aged man, eyes flashing with excitement. He wore a robe of cyan green, with its corners gently fluttering, seeming to intertwine with the vitality of the Land of Extreme Wood.

Li Mu was startled observing the humanoid form of the Cyan Jade Ginseng King, previously just an old man with white hair. Not seen for some time, he didn’t expect its cultivation to advance with a transformation in form.

"Master, this place is extremely suitable for my cultivation, my vitality complements with the wood spirit power of this Land of Extreme Wood, naturally achieving quality leaps in cultivation. Now, I can more freely control my form to better adapt to different environments." Perceiving Li Mu’s gaze, the Cyan Jade Ginseng King hurriedly smiled to explain, his eyes filled with gratitude and pride.

Hearing this, Li Mu felt a burst of comfort. The Cyan Jade Ginseng King’s talent and potential were extraordinary, seeing now its substantial progress in cultivation, he was filled with anticipation for its future growth. "Good, very good. It seems you’ve not only improved in cultivation, but your heart realm has also matured. The Land of Extreme Wood is indeed your blessed land."

"Thanks to Master’s praise, it’s all because of Master’s fortune. Master, you came here surely for important matters, can I relieve some of your worries?" The Cyan Jade Ginseng King bowed in salute, gratitude flowing over, warmly asked.

"No need, I’m looking at the Spirit Field, you can get busy yourself!" Li Mu chuckled, glanced upwards towards a figure, which was indeed the wood element clone, identical in appearance and characteristics to him.

"Alright, Master, call me if you need anything!"

The Cyan Jade Ginseng King perceived the solemn atmosphere between the master and this clone, tactfully stepped back, twisting his form into a cyan-green flowing light, and vanished into the depths of the forest.

"You’re here, is it about to begin!"

The wood element divinity transformation clone looked at Li Mu, as his Primordial Spirit Avatar, no one understood Li Mu’s current status more than it, its face full of shock and reluctance.

However, the divine soul of the main body, the concealed cultivation had reached the peak of the Void Refining Realm, next undoubtedly would be the phase to condense the Dharma Realm.

"Since you know, why ask more." Li Mu calmly and firmly looked at the divinity transformation avatar, gesturing.

Seeing this, though the wood element divinity transformation avatar held reluctance, it knew this was the inevitable path of its master. It nodded, slightly moved, transformed into a green flowing light flying into Li Mu’s hand.

Li Mu put it into the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, then in a flash appeared beside a large Spirit Field, his gaze surveying the status of various high-tier Spirit Plants.

...

As far as the eye could see, the attributes and growth states of various Tier Five, Tier Six, and Tier Seven Spirit Plants were displayed right before Li Mu.

A hint of joy flashed in Li Mu’s eyes, most Tier Six and Tier Seven Spirit Plants were not yet mature, however, the Tier Five Spirit Plants planted among them were mostly ready for harvesting at their maturity.

Without hesitation, Li Mu cast a gold technique to harvest those Tier Five Spirit Plants that had matured.

"Swipe, swipe..." Streak after streak of golden light flashed by, followed by Li Mu watching countless clusters of green light, like moths to flame, swarm towards him, finally merging into his body.

The next moment, the log section of the character panel was immediately flooded with numerous information alerts.

[Talent Divine Power - Plant Spirit Absorption effective, you absorbed a cluster of Plant Spirit, Innate Wood Qi +27]

[Talent Divine Power - Plant Spirit Absorption effective, you absorbed a cluster of Plant Spirit, Innate Wood Qi +59]

...

...

Reviewing the Plant Spirit harvest, Li Mu slightly furrowed his brows, feeling somewhat unsatisfied. After advancing to the Void Refining Realm, the plant spirit values obtained from harvesting Tier Five Spirit Plants were far too few, only Tier Six Spirit Plants can satisfy the value needs for advancing to the next realm.

Fortunately, this Extreme Wood Secret Realm is extensive, planting high-tier Spirit Plants requires not too much effort to care for, with many Tier Five Spirit Plants being planted, accumulation less intensive but still a considerable boost.

Moreover, once the remaining Tier Six and Tier Seven Spirit Plants mature, another harvest will follow, not delaying too much effort.

After harvesting several thousand mu of various Tier Five Spirit Plants, Li Mu scanned them with divine thought, stored them in a storage ring, reserved for Alchemy, then took out loads of Spirit Seeds from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl and replanted them.

With a smile, floating in the air, Li Mu gazed at the newly turned soil and freshly sown spirit seeds, his eyes gleaming with anticipation, after this condensing Dharma Realm, if the Plant Spirit attribute cannot advance to Integration Realm, the next harvest wave of mature Tier Six Spirit Plants won’t take long either.
