Chapter 342
After a month, Li Su finally arrived within a distance of less than 1000 meters from the immortal artifact fragment.
At this point, his pressure increased even more. The surroundings of the fragments of the immortal weapon had merged with the heavens and earth, making it impossible for Li Su to draw upon the power of the heavens and earth here. He could only forge ahead, with each step feeling like an arduous journey.
Despite the difficulties, having come this far, Li Su naturally wouldn’t give up.
The greater the power of the immortal artifact fragment, the higher its completeness, suggesting that it might be a core component of an immortal artifact. Otherwise, if it were just a simple component, like a fragment of a sword tip, it wouldn’t have such formidable power.
Li Su felt that this immortal artifact fragment might be the central energy part of the immortal artifact, containing an astonishing amount of elemental magnetism.
Otherwise, how else could it form the elemental magnetic barrier that pervaded Mangkang Mountain?
What exactly it was, he would have to figure out after obtaining it. Within this 1000 meters, it took Li Su a year to cover ninety percent of the distance. It was extremely challenging.
Even for him, the consumption was reaching a point where it was almost unbearable. Consequently, Li Su’s hands had not been without spiritual stones and elixirs.
Unable to absorb the spiritual energy of the heavens and earth in this space, and with no trace of spiritual qi, he had to rely on continuously replenishing his consumption with spiritual stones and elixirs.
“Only 100 meters left!”
The final 100 meters remained.
These last 100 meters were where Li Su needed to be exceptionally careful.
The saying goes, “The last ten percent of the journey takes half the effort.”
The preceding 900 meters were, in fact, less perilous than the remaining 100 meters.
A slight misstep could agitate the fragments of the immortal weapon. Even though Li Su had already mastered this natural Feng Shui formation, it was still prone to issues.
He might have control, but he hadn’t seized control of the core of this Feng Shui Array.
His first task now was to strip away the core status of the immortal artifact fragment.
In other words, he needed to detach the immortal artifact fragment from the entire natural Feng Shui Array.
Once detached, obtaining it would be much easier, and there would be no need to worry about its influence on the entire Feng Shui Array.
“Phew!”
Li Su let out a long breath. This time, obtaining the fragment of the immortal weapon took several years and a considerable amount of true energy. Now, Li Su needed to recover on his own.
Using the cultivation awarded by the system to replenish true energy would be too wasteful. As long as the cultivation level was there and there were enough spirit stones, Li Su wouldn’t need much time to recover true energy. To use a more intuitive analogy, the cultivation level of a cultivator was like the rim of a wooden bucket, and true energy was like the water inside. As long as the rim of the wooden bucket was intact, they only needed to replenish the water inside when it ran out.
Li Su glanced around and noticed that the rocks in this area, after countless years of influence, had turned into elemental magnets. These stones had some use, so Li Su dug out quite a few of them. Then, he quietly left the area. Back at the Li Family residence, Li Su didn’t immediately start studying the fragment of the immortal weapon.
He didn’t rush to restore his true energy either. Instead, with the service of a few maids, he comfortably soaked in a bath of spiritual liquid. Then, in the bath, he indulged in earthly pleasures. The joy experienced was beyond description in words. After thoroughly relaxing, Li Su loosened up from the tense state he had been in for the past few years of collecting the immortal weapon fragment.
Not too long later, in just over a year, Li Su spent a considerable amount of spirit stones and absorbed a massive amount of spiritual energy. He managed to replenish the true energy he had consumed. The true energy at the fusion stage was vast, naturally requiring more time for recovery. For others at the fusion stage, it would take even longer.
Because others couldn’t convert spiritual energy and treasures into true energy at the speed, Li Su could. During this year, Li Su lived a very comfortable life. Even during the recovery process, he leisurely enjoyed the various delights provided by the maids. After replenishing his true energy, Li Su, in high spirits, emerged from his abode.
Liu Xinyue had also emerged from seclusion and had already reached the Nascent Soul stage. Li Su congratulated her and spent a few days with her. Some years ago, Saintess Zixue and Lu Qiu had gone into seclusion.
His and Saintess Zixue’s daughters had grown up and happily ran over. After spending some time with them, Li Su set about addressing another matter—resolving the elemental magnetic barrier. The fragment of the immortal weapon had already been stored inside the Six Harmonies Mirror, and Li Su could now store the elemental magnetic energy within the elemental magnetic barrier.
The primary purpose of activating these arrays was, after Li Su retracted the elemental magnetic barrier, to merge it with the previous Feng Shui grand formation, forming a new grand formation. This way, Li Su wouldn’t have to redeploy the arrays. Through this process, he transformed the natural Feng Shui formation into a great mountain protection formation.
Peak Master Feng Tian showed curiosity. Soon, she understood why. Li Su had summoned numerous small cauldrons, and right after, the elemental magnetic energy from within the elemental magnetic barrier started converging towards these small cauldrons. Li Su specially crafted these cauldrons to absorb elemental magnetic energy.
She recalled the overall tremor of the elemental magnetic barrier over a year ago. This gave Peak Master Feng Tian a faint suspicion, but she still wasn’t certain. As time passed, the elemental magnetic energy continued to be drawn into the small cauldrons.
Li Su had crafted a total of 999 small cauldrons scattered across tens of thousands of miles of the sky, absorbing elemental magnetic energy from several locations. The elemental magnetic barrier was visibly thinning at a rapid rate.
“Excellent!”
“Senior Li is resolving the elemental magnetic barrier!”
Countless cultivators from the Immortal’s Gaze Peak cheered.
With the enormous tremors between heaven and earth, finally, a larger formation took shape. Immediately after, a sound similar to a mountain collapsing and a tsunami erupted. It was the spiritual tide triggered by the connection between the Immortal’s Gaze Peak and the Northern Region. The spiritual energy from the entire Northern Region began to pour into the Immortal’s Gaze Peak madly.
“From this day forward, the Mangkang Mountain shall no longer be called the Mangkang Mountain. Its new name is Wolong Mountain!”
At this moment, Li Su’s voice resonated through the entire area. After resolving the magnetic barrier, he decided to change the name of Mangkang Mountain.
The name had been changed to Wolong Mountain. Li Su had arranged numerous spirit-gathering formations here, combined with the terrain of Wolong Mountain, ensuring that this place would likely transform into a true immortal mountain in the future.
