Chapter 1072: Chapter 555: Tier Seven Spirit Talisman (Part 1)_2

The pen shaft, crafted meticulously by Li Mu using the Demon Emperor’s demon bone and his exclusive secret technique, retains its original strength and coldness while skillfully integrating the Extreme Cold Dao Essence. This allows the entire pen, when writing, to naturally guide the Power of Ice in the world, imbuing the talisman patterns with greater might and spiritual energy.

Entirely like a millennium ice crystal sculpted to perfection, its purity and brilliance are evident. Complex ice talisman patterns coil around the pen body like meandering streams, as if possessing life, gently swaying with the cold energy surrounding it, releasing a chilling aura and profound Dao Charm that leaves one awestruck.

Holding the Profound Wolf Rune Pen, Li Mu lightly waves it, allowing the Power of Chaos to surge in. The chill on the pen’s bristles interweaves with the ice power within the pen body, creating delicate ice crystal traces, akin to elves dancing in the snow, guiding the flow of Spiritual Power to outline the intricate structures of the talisman patterns.

As Li Mu moves the pen, the tip releases wisps of chill that merge with the frost on the talisman paper, making the Spirit Talisman drawn even purer, with doubled power.

The pen moves with the mind, as thoughts align with actions, using the Power of Chaos as ink, gathering at the pen tip, gradually sketching a complex and mystical pattern on the talisman paper rich in cold energy.

The talisman pattern, seeming both like a dragon and not, like a phoenix and not, its head and tail connecting, gradually emits a mystical aura. Lines of Divine Runes appear, as pure and powerful cold energy instantly rushes in, closely integrating with the talisman paper.

Nurtured by the cold energy, the talisman patterns seem to gain substance, emitting a faint blue glow, exuding an indescribable majesty and mystery.

Each stroke by Li Mu seems like a dialogue with the heavens and earth, with the cold Dao Essence formed by the Divine Runes continuously merging in.

The talisman patterns drawn by the "Profound Wolf Rune Pen" not only possess immense power but also contain Li Mu’s unique understanding of Dao and artifacts, allowing them to exhibit extraordinary effects.

As the pattern gradually takes shape, a powerful wave of spiritual energy quickly arises in the talisman paper, this wave of spiritual energy sweeping across the space like a sudden winter cold wave.

With a wave of his hand, Li Mu activates the surrounding Protective Array, preventing the chilling power from running rampant.

Next, the Heavenly and Earth Spiritual Power erupts as if responding to Li Mu’s imminent creation of a mysterious pattern; the surrounding space begins to tremble, and the air fills with thickening cold air that condenses into frost visible to the naked eye, gently falling.

In the sky, the once calm clouds are stirred by a mysterious force, forming a vortex, with faint thunderous whispers predicting extraordinary events to come.

Reaching a critical moment, Li Mu becomes increasingly focused, steadily supplying Spiritual Power with the hand holding the Talisman Spirit Pen.

With the final stroke, the entire Spirit Talisman pattern suddenly lights up like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating the surrounding ice mist. The mystical pattern, seemingly both like a dragon and not, like a phoenix and not, feels as if it comes alive, with faint dragon and phoenix cries audible, quickly dissipating into invisibility, leaving behind an awe-inspiring pressure.

"Boom!" A loud sound, the Spiritual Power in the world seems to find an outlet, madly pouring into the talisman, countless Divine Runes appear as if alive, frantically moving across the talisman’s surface, gathering and furiously drawing upon the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power, with powerful cold energy emerging, forming a breathtaking scene.

Meanwhile, above, the thunder clouds rapidly gather, the Heavenly Will descending.

Seeing this, Li Mu, as if anticipating it, smiles slightly, directly triggering the surrounding Array, then storing the Spirit Talisman to completely block the Celestial Dao Will’s lock.

Every time a peerless item is born or a magical artifact ascends to a very high grade, the Heavenly Dao would unleash a trial to test whether it can withstand the power of Heaven and Earth, whether it truly deserves to exist.

However, Li Mu has refined countless Dao Artifacts, Spirit Talismans, and Celestial Puppets, making the probability of incurring Artifact Tribulation very high. If he had to endure the Tribulation every time, he would be perpetually occupied.

Therefore, Li Mu has long mastered a clever method to circumvent Artifact Tribulation, using his profound understanding of Heaven and Earth Law, alongside his unique expertise in Artifact Refining and Talisman Painting, he created an Array named "Celestial Derivation Escape Array."

The "Celestial Derivation Escape Array" can skillfully guide Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power, causing the newly born peerless item to instantly blend with the surrounding Heaven and Earth, blurring its boundaries of existence, thereby evading the direct perception of the Celestial Dao Will.

Facing the impending thunder clouds and the Heavenly Will, Li Mu with a thought activates the pre-arranged "Celestial Derivation Escape Array," instantly making the surrounding space seem distorted, countless light and shadows intertwining, completely obscuring the presence of the Spirit Talisman within the world, causing the thunder clouds, despite arriving, to seem aimless, hovering momentarily before finally dissipating away.

Lin Maosan, who had just left, perceived the fleeting thunderclouds and looked up in confusion.

"What is this? Master refined a Dao Artifact? Clearly, there was an Artifact Tribulation, but why did it disappear?" Lin Maosan’s heart was full of questions, his gaze involuntarily turning towards Li Mu’s direction, where everything had returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Nevertheless, confirming that no Artifact Tribulation descended, Lin Maosan was about to leave when another surprising event occurred; the sky changed again, and thunder clouds quickly regrouped, obscuring half the sky.

However, this thunder tribulation came swiftly and left just as quickly; just when Lin Maosan thought he would witness a thrilling Artifact Tribulation, the thunder cloud merely flipped in the sky a few times as if being toyed with, rapidly dissipating into the horizon, restoring the sky to its former tranquility.

Lin Maosan stood still, filled with curiosity gazing into the sky.

Shortly after, to Lin Maosan’s surprise, not long after, another cluster of thunder clouds was drawn in, yet before they could fully form, they quickly dissipated again.

"What... What is happening here? What is Master doing! Why are these thunder clouds so erratic?"

Lin Maosan remained for a long time without leaving, watching those thunder clouds that frequently gathered and dissipated in the sky, muttering in confusion.

At this moment, about half an hour later, Li Mu successfully refined a Thousand Frost Cold Domain Talisman; when the Artifact Tribulation descended, he activated the "Celestial Derivation Escape Array," neutralizing the lock of the Tribulation Thunder, storing the Spirit Talisman and continuing to refine the next one.

Under Li Mu’s control, the thunder clouds accompanying the Artifact Tribulation seemed to become a unique accompaniment in his artifact refining process. Every time a new Spirit Talisman was born, the sky would display a scene of thunder clouds gathering and dispersing.

Yet, all this appeared to Li Mu as merely an ordinary process, completely focused on refining, without distraction.

As one high-tier Spirit Talisman after another was completed and hidden within the "Celestial Derivation Escape Array," the thunder clouds repeatedly gathered and dispersed like an exquisitely choreographed dance, thrilling to outsiders but all perfectly within Li Mu’s control.

Lin Maosan left the back mountain with a mind full of questions.

While Li Mu was creating talismans and refining artifacts, Little Mingyue was seated cross-legged nearby, using the Celestial Puppet Power of the Eight-sided Puppet Suppressing Token to temper herself.

As a Tier Seven Puppet Spirit, despite being young, Little Mingyue exhibited extraordinary spiritual energy, her eyes closed, Concentrating Spirit, with powerful Puppet Power fluctuations surrounding her, in resonance with the Celestial Puppet Power from the Eight-sided Puppet Suppressing Token, forming a subtle harmony.

As time passed, Little Mingyue’s Puppet Spirit Power gradually strengthened, her eyes occasionally glimmering with wisdom, the Eight-sided Puppet Suppressing Token under her guidance releasing purer and more powerful Celestial Puppet Power, like a trickling stream, flowing into the Puppet Spirit sea within her, subtly enhancing her cultivation.

Between refining a Spirit Talisman, Li Mu noticed Little Mingyue’s changes, smiling with satisfaction and admiration.
