"Elder Li, do you really not need me to arrange servants for you?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

After clearing out the sect disciples from Crescent Island, Ji Hanyan looked at Li Mu, warmly asking once again.

"No need. I prefer peace and quiet, without being disturbed by others." Li Mu smiled and politely declined.

"Alright then! If there’s nothing else, Elder Li, I’ll take my leave. If you ever need help, feel free to come to Thousand Leaf Island and find me. Hanyan will be happy to assist." Ji Hanyan, having a good impression of Li Mu, said with a hint of flattering intention, deeply meaningful.

Li Mu was young, wealthy, and a Nascent Soul cultivator, only accompanied by a little maidservant, with no Dao companion, yet able to rent Crescent Island for 30 years instantly. Such an outstanding young talent stirred Ji Hanyan’s heart.

However, as the saying goes, the fallen flowers have intent, yet the flowing water is unfeeling; Li Mu, as if oblivious, calmly nodded and casually replied, "Alright, if there’s a need, I’ll trouble Miss Ji at that time!"

Ji Hanyan heard the indifferent perfunctory tone in Li Mu’s words, helplessly released a Tier Three Spiritual Ship, swiftly flying away from Crescent Island under Li Mu’s watch.

"Lord Li, Miss Ji is quite interested in you, hehe, didn’t you notice?" Once Ji Hanyan had gone far, Xue’Er giggled while looking at Li Mu, teasingly asking.

"You little rascal, what do you know!" Li Mu glared at Xue’Er, seriously questioning with a stern face.

"I’m not little at all! Hmph!" Xue’Er snorted angrily, flying off to explore the spiritual island.

Li Mu did not bother with her, flew to the Spirit Field, pinched his technique decision with his hand, consecutively casting Drying Technique, Earth Dragon Skill,... removing and overturning various spirit plants planted in the two thousand acres of top-grade Spirit Field one by one.

The Tier Three and Four Spirit Plants withered, carbonized under the baking of the Drying Technique,... while the Earth Dragon Skill churned the Spirit Field, removing all impurities from the soil, leaving only purified Spirit Field soil.

As time passed, the spirit plants in the Spirit Field disappeared entirely, buried under the Spirit Field soil, catalyzed by Li Mu into Spirit Field fertilizer. This process made the top-grade Spirit Field become more fertile, the soil softer, suitable for planting Purple Sun Reishi, Yin Soul Fruit.

In less than half an hour, Li Mu completed the work of managing two thousand acres of top-grade Spirit Field, then released nine Tier Five Spirit Swords from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, starting to set up various arrays on Crescent Island.

Planning to reside long-term on Crescent Island until promoting to Divinity Transformation, only then would Li Mu consider relocating elsewhere, thus the security of Crescent Island became extremely important.

Li Mu intended to expend considerable effort to properly set up multiple spirit arrays for Crescent Island, eventually forming a comprehensive Defense Array to safeguard the island’s safety.

After upgrading the Array Formation Technique to Level Six, Li Mu gained lots of valuable array formation experience; although he hadn’t learned more new types of arrays, his understanding and use of array techniques had reached the level of mastery. He was able to flexibly utilize various arrays according to different environmental, topographical, spiritual qi, and other factors, saving a significant amount of array power consumption, unleashing maximum potency, and achieving optimal effects.

First, Li Mu set up a Fog Array on Crescent Island to cover the entire island. The primary role of the Fog Array was to conceal the spiritual qi of the island, shrouding Crescent Island under layers of mist, preventing cultivators from outside from detecting the island’s existence, thus avoiding disturbance.

To set up this grand array, Li Mu needed to meticulously study the island’s climate, terrain, and spiritual qi distribution, then select appropriate locations and angles for engraving array patterns.

Next, he set up the Spirit Gathering Array, which primarily served to concentrate the island’s spiritual qi, enhancing the cultivation speed on the island, ensuring the spiritual power emitted by the Spirit Vein was not lost or wasted.

The Spirit Gathering Array required using the island’s Spirit Vein, guiding the spiritual power from the vein out to gather above the Spirit Field through a special array structure. Moreover, to make the Spirit Gathering Array more efficient, Li Mu also needed to engrave some special array patterns within the array, expending Spirit Stones to accelerate the gathering speed and concentration of spiritual qi.

Besides the above two main grand arrays, Li Mu also set up the Spirit Separation Array and Yin Yang Primordial Array.

The Spirit Separation Array mainly served to block Divine Sense’s prying, protecting the island’s secrets. It enveloped the entire island within an invisible, untouchable barrier, making it impossible for external cultivators to investigate the island’s situation through Divine Sense.

The Yin Yang Primordial Array was used to distribute and harmonize the Yin Yang Qi, making Crescent Island’s Spirit Field suitable for planting Purple Sun Reishi, Yin Soul Fruits, and other Yin Yang Spirit Plants. Setting up this grand array required engraving array patterns at specific locations to guide the flow and convergence of the Yin Yang Qi.

Additionally, Li Mu planned to set up the Five Elements Array for Crescent Island. The Five Elements Array had to depend on the island’s environment, complemented by five Tier Six Five Elements Spirit Swords, to form powerful defensive strength. Borrowing the power of the Five Elements Spirit Swords, Li Mu could engrave corresponding array patterns on the island to form the Five Elements Array. This grand array could adjust according to the enemies’ attributes, thereby effectively defending against attacks from different directions.

...

Li Mu simultaneously controlled nine spirit swords to engrave, these spirit swords, like his hands, precisely and firmly sketched out array patterns one after another.

During the array formation, Li Mu needed to flexibly adjust according to various factors like terrain, climate, spiritual qi, etc., to fully utilize resources and achieve the best defensive effect.

As time passed, Li Mu’s understanding and application of array formation grew more proficient. Relying on the rich experience and exquisite skill of Level Six Array Technique, he fused and nested various arrays with each other, forming a unique array effect, making the Island Protection Array more stable and increasingly potent.
